Chapter Eight
Pain poured through Nathan’s heart as he went into district headquarters. He slept like shit the night before. He tossed and turned, all the while dreaming of Reed. Training day was here. He had to fucking get it together if he was going to be dealing with Reed today. There was no way for Nathan to get out of his duty. He just had to get through it with Reed.
Nathan bypassed his office and went straight downstairs to the Training Center. To Nathan’s surprise, Reed wasn’t doing a one-on-one training. He was going to be teaching a class. Nathan went to the locker room to change. The class was just starting as he slid into the back of the room. Reed wouldn’t meet his gaze as he went to work showcasing tactical moves and worst case scenarios in the field.
“I’ll need another volunteer,” Reed said.
No one was quick to volunteer. Nathan was not about to get within touching distance of Reed.
“Stow. You’re up,” Reed said.
“I don’t think so.”
“Get your ass up here, Stow,” Reed growled.
A murmur went through the room. It seemed as though Nathan didn’t have a choice in the matter. The room parted as Nathan went to the front. The breeze from the ventilation system above them blew Reed’s scent toward Nathan. He inhaled deeply, loving the fresh scent of his newly washed skin getting physical. Their gazes locked and something shook deep within Nathan’s soul. He couldn’t do this with Reed. It was too painful and too soon. Reed came in close.
“Do you have a problem?” Reed asked.
His whispered voice was only loud enough for Nathan to hear. “Yeah, I do.”
“Get your head in the fucking game, Stow. Distraction can get you killed in the field,” Reed said.
“Fuck. You.”
Reed stepped away as an audible murmur went through the group. He paced slowly around the room. “Class is over for today.”
The room cleared out fast, but Nathan wasn’t about to step away from this fight. When they were finally alone, Nathan said, “You’re a fucking pussy for running from me.”
Reed’s shoulder’s stiffened. “You really want to do this here?”
“Yeah, I do. If it will get you to wake the fuck up, I’ll do it in the middle of the fucking bullpen.”
Reed crossed the room so fast that Nathan had barely time to react. He was swept off his feet and taken to the floor hard. All the air in Nathan’s lungs left him in a whoosh as Reed mounted him, pinning him to the floor. Reed leaned down so that their faces were merely an inch away.
“Move the fuck on, Nathan. I’m not the right man for you.”
* * * *
Reed had to break this thing off with Nathan. He couldn’t risk Nathan losing his job over an affair. Nathan popped his hips, sending Reed flying off of Nathan’s legs. Reed was an expert in hand-to-hand combat fighting. No one ever got the better of him. Somehow he knew that Nathan was his match in every way. Nathan pinned Reed to the floor. The feel of their hips locked together was too much for him. A shiver of heat landed solidly in Reed’s cock. He grew painfully hard.
As a Dom, he always had control. His sub was misbehaving. That thought brought Reed up short. Nathan was no longer his submissive. They fought hard. Both wanting control of this fight. Reed reached around, grabbing Nathan by the ass and yanking his hips up above Reed’s face. The move completely startled Nathan, giving Reed just enough of an edge to regain control of the fight. To drive his point home, Reed dug his fingers into Nathan’s ass as he sunk his face into Nathan’s hard cock. The move was a split second of time in between Reed flipping Nathan over his head and onto the mat.
“Fuck,” Nathan groaned.
Reed flipped off his hands, landing onto his haunches. “Don’t start a fight you cannot win.”
Reed started to walk away but was stopped by a hand grabbing his belt buckle. They were crossing the line. This fight was turning sexual.
“Let go,” Reed said.
“I can’t and maybe I don’t want to.”
Nathan’s words nearly sent Reed over the edge. This was a mistake not worth making. Why couldn’t Nathan understand that? Reed knew he had to put an end to this confrontation before things spiraled further out of control.
“I’m the one you have to go through if you want to get back into the field. Maybe you shouldn’t piss me the fuck off,” Reed said.
Nathan came in close, leaving his hand on the loop of Reed’s pants. “What do I need to do to get back on your good side?”
“Do your training. That’s it,” Reed said.
Reed could see that his words crashed Nathan’s face. He didn’t like hurting Nathan, but he had. Nathan turned away from him without saying anything and headed to the locker room. Reed cursed and it echoed within the empty Training Center. He ran his hands through his hair and down his face. How had things gotten so fucked up? He stared at the locker room door as though at any moment it would open with Nathan coming out. It never happened. Reed went to the locker room. He had to work this situation out with Nathan before it messed up both of their lives. Reed opened the locker room door and looked around. Nathan was nowhere near the lockers. Reed bypassed the lockers and headed back toward the showers. Water was running hard in the far shower stall. He recognized Nathan’s gym bag sitting on the bench outside the dressing room. Reed whipped back the shower curtain, catching Nathan off guard.
Nathan’s cock was stretched up high, curling upward over his happy trail.
“Do you really think we can go back to being lovers again?” Reed asked.
Water rushed down over Nathan’s face. There were tears in his eyes. It was clear to Reed that he was crying. It broke Reed’s heart to see Nathan so torn up over what happened.
“Go away and leave me alone. You made how you feel perfectly clear,” Nathan said. “Just leave me alone.”
There was a deep bone-chilling sadness within Nathan’s voice. Reed wouldn’t and couldn’t walk away from Nathan now. Not when he needed him so desperately. Nathan went to shut off the water, but Reed stopped him.
“Fuck,” Reed said.
He muscled Nathan up against the wall, feeling the impact of his hot, wet, and hard body all the way down to his toes. Reed kissed Nathan, punishing his soft, wet lips with everything he was feeling so deeply. Nathan groaned, parting his lips for more. Reed thrust his tongue deep within Nathan’s mouth, owning him. Reed palmed Nathan’s cock, rubbing his hand down Nathan’s shaft. He gripped Nathan’s balls tightly as his fingers edged backward toward his rim. Nathan arched his hips forward in invitation. Reed rubbed his fingers over Nathan’s rim, loving how hot and wet he was from the shower. Nathan broke his lips away.
“Stop fucking with me,” Nathan said.
“I’ll stop when we’re both satisfied.”
Their mouths collided again. Reed took the kiss deep. Voices carried down the hallway.
They were both breathing hard as Reed broke his lips away.
“Be fucking quiet,” Reed said. “I don’t want to get caught.”
Reed continued to stroke Nathan’s rim. Nathan groaned, sucking his lower lip into his mouth. Nathan was having a really hard time being quiet. Reed knew he should back off but he couldn’t. He wanted to see how far he could take this here and now. They were completely isolated and alone in the far shower stall. The curtain kept both of them out of sight. Still, Reed did not want to get caught. He wanted to protect Nathan at all costs. He loved him. He would do anything and everything for him. That scared the hell out of him. Reed knew he should step away but he couldn’t.
Nathan braced his legs wide. His cock punched Reed in the abdomen. Reed continued to flick the tips of his fingers over Nathan’s rim. Nathan was starting to pant heavily. Reed dropped his lips to Nathan’s ear.
“You’re not being quiet, babe.”
A violent shudder went through Nathan as Reed pushed his wet finger into Nathan’s ass. Nathan cried out in surprise. Reed covered his mouth with his lips, swallowing his cry of p
leasure before anyone heard. The shower continued to pound the tile, wetting both of them. Reed fucked his finger in and out of Nathan’s ass, wishing it was his throbbing cock stuffed up there. Reed wanted his sub tied to his bed. He didn’t want things to go down here, but they were too far gone. They had to finish what they started. With his right hand fucking Nathan’s ass, Reed used his left to stroke Nathan’s cock. He stroked him hard, pinching Nathan’s cockhead with each stroke of his fist.
Nathan shock violently within Reed’s arms. He loved it how Nathan was coming so undone from their loving. All of a sudden, Reed pulled away. He needed to take back the control his sub had taken from him.
“Do you want me?” Reed asked.
“Yes. Right here and now.”
He turned Nathan around, pushing him up against the cool tile. Reed unzipped his pants, pulling his thick cock out. He dug into the pocket of his cargo’s pulling out the little sample packet of lube he got the last time he bought a bottle. He was always prepared. He ripped the packet open, squeezing the lube onto his cock. He tipped his cockhead up against Nathan’s rim, pushing his prick deep inside him in one powerful stroke. Nathan started to cry out, but Reed stopped him with a firm hand around his neck and another one over his mouth. Reed dropped his mouth to Nathan’s ear. He could feel Nathan’s heart hammering.
“Quiet or I won’t keep fucking you, love.”
A whimper of need echoed deep within Nathan’s chest. Reed started to move, taking ownership of Nathan’s body. He tried to go slow, but he knew they both needed to make this quick. Reed pulled Nathan’s hips back as he thrust deep. He reached around, stroking Nathan’s cock as he pumped his prick deep inside his ass. It felt so good to be hitting home. Home. The thought felt so foreign and so right within his mind. Reed had never thought of a lover as home before, but Nathan was his home. He was everything he ever wanted and knew he could never have.
With a hard stroke of his hand, Reed sent Nathan’s orgasm flying and his spunk shooting against the tile. Reed didn’t stop pumping his hand until Nathan ran dry. Deep within Nathan’s ass, Reed’s cock throbbed hard for release with the quick beat of his heart. Reed pumped his cock in and out of Nathan’s ass. His orgasm spun through his cock, sending his spunk flying. Reed pulled out, rubbing his cock between Nathan’s ass cheeks as he came.
Reed was breathing hard as he dropped his forehead against Nathan’s shoulder. “I think I’ve fallen hard for you.”
Nathan reached up, caressing his hair. “I love you, Reed.”
Those three simple words were so easy to say. Reed wanted to say them too, but he couldn’t. Reed pulled away, zipping up his fly. “I’ll leave first so that no one sees us.”
“Reed?”
“Yes?”
“I’m glad you came back to me.”
“Me too, babe.”
Chapter Nine
Reed loved Nathan. It was about time that he told Nathan how much he did. The roses he bought where the most expensive he could find. They were a golden yellow and as perfect as the man he loved. All that was missing was Nathan. He promised to stop by after work. Reed was pacing around his house, trying to find something to keep his mind off Nathan. He settled on peeling wallpaper off the living room walls. There was too much he needed to do to get the house ready for his lover. He wanted Nathan to move in with him. A small part of him was worried that Nathan would say no. Reed wanted to keep the relationship a secret as long as he could.
The last thing Reed wanted was everyone at work to find out that he was sleeping with Nathan. It would cause a complicated mess for both of them. After killing a few hours, Reed went upstairs and grabbed a quick shower. By the time he was finished, Nathan was knocking on his front door. Reed had enough time to put on a pair of jeans and a T-shirt. He was barefoot when he answered the door.
“Hey, babe,” Reed said.
“Hi.”
Nathan had picked up barbecue from the takeout place in Hamilton. It was the best barbecue in town. “I hope you’re hungry.”
“Starving,” Reed said. “I bought you roses.”
“I love flowers.”
He let his eyes go hungry as he shut the front door behind Nathan. He backed Nathan up against the door, kissing him hard. Reed let his hands smooth down the sides, grabbing his ass. He pulled Nathan’s ass cheeks wide, skimming his fingers over his rim. Nathan groaned, arching his ass out for more. The bag of takeout hit the floor and neither one cared. Reed backed Nathan up against the stairs. Reed pulled his lips away.
“I’ve been waiting to kiss you all fucking day,” Reed said.
“I’ve missed you, too.”
“I want you upstairs and collared ten minutes ago.”
“Yes, Sir.”
“Undress.”
Nathan worked fast to remove his clothes. Reed stroked his hand down the front of his jeans, gripping his cock as he watched Nathan’s tight ass move up the stairs. Reed went to his closet where he got the new leather collar he bought for Nathan last night. The silver leather collar was completely beautiful and creaked with the new sound of leather.
“On your knees,” Reed ordered.
Nathan kneeled down. Reed loved how Nathan obeyed without question. He worked the collar around Nathan’s neck, putting it flush against his skin. Reed rubbed the back of his fingers down over Nathan’s neck, watching how he shuddered with anticipation. Reed let his gaze move down over Nathan’s heavy cock. Pre-cum dripped from his tip as Nathan’s cock flexed hard for more.
Reed went to his nightstand where he pulled the bag of toys from the drawer. He laid each one of them out one by one, making sure Nathan was watching his every move. When he finished, Reed went to his closet where he changed into his leather chaps. Nathan groaned as Reed returned.
“Get on the bed. On your hands and knees,” Reed said.
Nathan’s ass was at the edge of the bed as Reed came up behind him. Reed pushed on his neck, pushing his forehead all the way to the comforter. Reed reached for the biggest glass butt plug and lube. He snapped the cap open, wetting his fingers. Reed flipped the cap shut, setting it aside. He rubbed the lube all over the butt plug. He teased Nathan’s rim with the tip of the glass plug. Nathan cried out for more as Reed pushed the tip into his ass.
“Do you like that?” Reed asked.
“Yes!”
“Good.” Reed pushed the butt plug all the way in and walked away. “Don’t move.”
* * * *
Sweat beaded Nathan’s temples. His entire body shook with frustration as his ass hung wide open with a big fucking butt plug shoved up his ass. He wanted to look around for Reed, but he knew he couldn’t move or he would be punished.
“Hands behind your back,” Reed said.
Nathan groaned as his wrists were grabbed tightly together. He heard the snap of handcuffs lock down and it turned him on. Nathan felt his cock contract, sending a shot of pre-cum out his tip. Reed smoothed his hands down Nathan’s arms and over his ass. He squeezed Nathan’s ass cheeks together as he pushed and pulled the butt plug in and out of Nathan’s ass. The movement felt so good. Nathan cried out as Reed slowly pulled the butt plug from his ass and set it aside.
Without hesitation, Nathan arched his ass out for more. Reed slapped his cock against Nathan’s ass with hard, punishing hits that echoed within the room. The smack of skin on skin turned Nathan the fuck on. He loved it when Reed hit him with his cock.
“Take me,” Nathan said.
“I love it when you beg.”
“Please.”
“Not yet. You’re not ready for me.”
Nathan groaned as another butt plug was pushed into his ass. The butt plug started to vibrate, sending sensations through his ass. Nathan moaned, spreading his ass wider for more.
“Reed…I can’t hold out.”
“You can and you will, babe. I’m going to teach you a lesson on edging.”
“What?”
“Edging. It’s where I bring you to the edge and hold you
there. You will not come until I say you can.”
“Fuck me…”
Reed chuckled as he kissed his way over Nathan’s ass. “Not yet, babe. There’s so much more I want to do to you tonight.”
With the butt plug vibrating his ass, Reed reached between Nathan’s legs to stroke his cock with his nails. Reed stroked his cock, bringing Nathan closer and closer to the edge. When he was close to coming, Reed backed off. Nathan felt as though he were on a high he wouldn’t ever come down from. Reed kept teasing his cock and backing off. After what felt like hours later, Reed turned off the butt plug and pulled it from his ass. Nathan groaned with sweet satisfaction as Reed pushed his throbbing cock into his ass. He felt stuffed from Reed’s huge size and loved it. Reed thrust in and out of his ass hard, taking him with short strokes that sent their balls slapping together. The tip of Nathan’s cock brushed against the rough edge of the comforter. He was so close to coming, but knew he couldn’t unless he had permission.
“Reed…”
“You’re close?”
“Yes.”
“Come for me, Nathan. Come!”
Nathan cried out as his orgasm spun hard through his cock. Reed reached around, cranking his hand down over his cock as he came.
“I’m coming with you,” Reed said.
Reed didn’t stop pumping Nathan’s cock or his dick in and out of Nathan’s ass until they were both dry. Nathan was shaking as Reed pulled him down to the bed, leaving the collar on. Nathan loved being collared by Reed. It felt so fucking good to be owned by his lover. Their lips met with a sweet kiss.
“I love you, Reed.”
“I love you, too.”
Chapter Ten
Nathan rolled over, curling his body around Reed’s. Late morning sunshine slipped through the curtains. Nathan let his fingers slip over the scars on Reed’s abdomen. He still hated the bastard who put those marks on his lover.
“Say it again,” Nathan said.
“Beg.”
“Please. Please. Please.”
