Hogan arched up into his caress with a sigh.
“Feel good, Ace?”Kai asked.Hogan nodded his answer, but Kai already knew what it would be.The hooded gaze and sweep of color across his cheekbones told him so.“Then you are going to love this.”
Swinging his leg across Hogan’s waist, he used the rest of the lubricant on his hand around the entrance to his own ass, and then gripped Hogan’s cock, placing the head at his entrance.
“Wait!”Hogan said, gripping Kai’s hips.“You need to be ready.I will not hurt you.”
Kai gave him a smile, biting his bottom lip in a way he knew Hogan would appreciate.“Baby, I know you’ve lost a lot of your memory about me, but let me fill you in on a little thing about me.”He leaned forward, placing his mouth against Hogan’s pectoral, tonguing his nipple to full erectness, loving that Hogan’s hands shot to his head, to hold him against him.He looked into his eyes.“I like a bite of pain with my pleasure.”And then he bit none too gently against Hogan’s nipple.
“Shit!”Hogan cried out, and jolted, but from the way his dick twitched in Kai’s hand, he knew he liked it.He always did—they truly were perfect for each other.
Then he placed Hogan’s cock against his back entrance and began to lower himself over him.Rolling his hips, to take him in, letting his body get used to him again.Hogan held himself still, his entire body tensing against what Kai guessed was a frighteningly strong urge to move.
When Kai had him mostly inside, he dropped down hard, reveling in the burn that came with that move, and the way Hogan’s hands flew up and gripped his hips.Neither of them said anything, the sounds of their breathing the only thing in the van.
Then Kai began to move, slowly at first, up and down, riding his lover’s cock, adding a roll of his hips at the top and bottom to increase the pleasure.Moves that made them both equally gasp with pleasure and curse with shock.They both needed this connection a little too much for this to last too long.
Soon, Kai was riding Hogan hard, placing his hands on Hogan’s chest for leverage, and snapping his hips up and down in a broken rhythm.Hogan’s hand suddenly reached for Kai’s cock, which was harder than it should have been, and began to shuttle his hand up and down from root to tip.Kai threw his head back, taking the pleasure his man gave him as he gave it in return.He could feel the pressure of another orgasm building within him even as Hogan began to thrust up into him.Their release approached at the speed of light.
And when they finally flew off the edge of the world, and into the abyss of pleasure that lay before them, it was together.Always together.It wasn’t about proving anything.It was about forgiveness, about finding the pieces of themselves they thought they’d lost and choosing each other all over again.
Chapter Eleven
The day after the battledawned quieter than Hogan expected.The teams had the strange calm of a place that had been torn apart by chaos and then stitched back together by sheer will.Weapons were laid out in neat lines on tables, cloths soaked in oil and solvent as the men cleaned, checked, and restocked.Ammo was counted, knives sharpened.Bruises were hidden under shirts, but everyone moved a little slower than usual, carrying the weight of last night.
Marsh was in his element, tablet in hand, Blake and Eli’s faces glowing on the screen as he moved from man to man like a field medic turned drill sergeant.
“Ty,” Marsh called, angling the camera so they could see him, “arm out.”
Ty scowled but did as he was told.
Blake’s voice came through the tablet’s speaker.“Gunshot through the bicep, clean pass.Change the dressing twice daily.”
“No lifting more than your toothbrush for seventy-two hours.”Eli said with a smile.“This isn’t about pushing through pain or proving anything.It’s about doing this in phases, so the muscle heals right, the nerves wake back up, and you get full use of your arm instead of a lifetime reminder of one bad day.And I’ll know if you cheat.”
Oren leaned over to put his face where Eli could see it.“No worries about that, Eli.Dale and I have him covered, and we’ll tell you if he cheats.”
