“My magic is more ancient than that. I don’t need things bound to me to obey me.”
Well, that was news.
Elex cleared his throat and ran a finger around the rim of the glass. “Master, is this pressing? I really should get up to my rooms—”
“Are you finding life agreeable here, Elex?” Master Dorian cut through his words.
“Of course, sir. This is a beautiful building, and the attendants are excellent. The food is beyond compare.”
“As is the company in the bedroom.”
Clearing his throat, Elex stared into the glass.
A befuddled look appeared on Master Dorian’s face. “Are you not enjoying a hot cunny to slide into every night?”
What a horrible way to talk about my lady bits.
“My work has been dragging me away—”
“Surely you have time to enjoy a quick indulgence.”
He said nothing.
“What is it, Elex?”
He took a sip of the glass. “I have… proclivities I have not been able to discuss with Kimber. Other needs.”
Master Dorian’s mouth made a perfect circle. “Ah. You enjoy men as well.”
“I do.”
He did?
It was quiet for a moment, and Master Dorian took a sip of his brandy.
“So, you’re bored with the pretty pussy.”
“Not bored. Not excited though, either.”
That was a lie. He was as hard as a pillar of marble the other night.
“Have you tried talking with her?”
A cruel chuckle issue from his throat. “No. Please. Kimber? She’s as straight-laced as they come. She would never ever consider having another in her bed with us.”
With another sip of his drink, Master Dorian nodded. “She is naïve, isn’t she?”
I wanted to sock him in the face.
“Painfully. I tried drawing her out—” Elex nodded.
“Mm, the fucking on the balcony.”
Oh, my gods. Was thereanyonewho hadn’t seen us out there?
The glass touched the table top with barely a sound, and Master Dorian leaned in. “Did you imagine someone behind you? Taking your ass as you were balls deep in her pussy?”
The answer came without hesitation. “Yes.”
