"I'll try to make sure no one is attracted to me at your next meeting," I grumbled, rolling my eyes. The elevator opened then, and I stormed out of there and led the way to the SUVs. We all climbed in and rode back in silence. Once we returned to the castle, I made sure my charge was safe and on to his next meeting before retreating back to the security offices. What the fuck was his problem?
* * * *
Through the rest of the day's meetings and during dinner, Dominic and I barely spoke two words to each other. When it was time for his nightly visit with his consorts, I accompanied him up to his suite. I walked in with him and checked out the room before deciding it was safe. I'd already interviewed and cleared his consorts earlier in the day.
"Enter," Dominic said when there was a knock on the door. His women came in, dressed in long silk robes, and went to greet him. Dominic, in turn, started to get undressed. That would be my cue to leave. "Running off so soon, Yuri? You're more than welcome to join us. Amber likes variety."
"Thanks, but she doesn't have the right equipment for my tastes," I ground out between my teeth.
"You're gay?" Dominic asked, looking unconvinced as he took off his pants.
"Yeah, very," I answered, trying to get the fuck out of there. Was he just that socially inept that he didn't get it? I know he'd felt my hard-on earlier in the elevator. Trying with everything I had not to look at him now that he was down to only boxers, I edged closer to the door.
"Well, enjoy your evening, I know I will," he said as he took the girls' hands and led them to the bed. I mumbled something unintelligible and raced out the door, shutting it quickly behind me. When I was alone in the hallway, I let my forehead thump on the closed door. I wanted to watch Dominic have sex with every fiber of my being, I just wanted the sex to be with me. Hearing the girls giggle through the door, I felt my hands start shifting into claws.
Great! On top of everything else, I was starting to get jealous. I needed a drink, or several. Heading down to the lounge, I saw a few familiar faces. It was like a bar for those who lived and worked in the castle. I sat on one of the stools and ordered a triple Jäger. As soon as it was poured, I gulped it and ordered another.
"Someone's trying to get drunk tonight," a smooth voice said from my left. Downing my drink, I turned to see who was talking to me. It was Kevin, one of the tech guys.
"Rough day," I answered as I drank down the glass the bartender had just refilled.
"We could take the bottle and go somewhere more private," Kevin said, eyeing me up. "There's a pool room down the hall, you could show me how you handle a stick."
Is this guy for real? I wondered, but then decided I didn’t care, I needed the distraction. I nodded as he got the bottle from the bartender. He led the way to the pool room as I checked him out. Kevin was pretty good-looking, about six-two, one-ninety or so, with a nice ass. He had ear-length curly blond hair and dark eyes. Perfect, the exact opposite of Dominic.
"Strip," I growled as he closed the door and I took the bottle from him. His eyes went wide as I took a long swig, already feeling a little drunk. "Or were you just all talk?"
"Not at all, but a man does like a little foreplay," he said as he slipped his shirt off over is head.
"Fine, on your knees." I smirked.
"Gladly," Kevin replied as he dropped to his knees and went for my zipper. He gasped as he pulled out my eleven inch cock. "Oh my, I've found a third leg here."
"Suck it," I slurred. Guess I might have drunk a little more than I thought. Of course, I'd only picked at dinner, not being in the mood to eat.
Kevin licked around the head of my dick as I pulled off my shirt and pushed my pants down. I took one last gulp from the bottle before setting it on the pool table. He was taking his sweet time, teasing me. I wasn't in the mood to be teased.
"Swallow it," I growled, having had enough with the foreplay. "Do you have lube?"
"Mmm-hmm," He nodded as he reached into his pants and pulled some out.
"Good, get yourself ready as you blow me," I spat out as he started to deep throat me. "I'm not in the mood for a long foreplay and get ready session."
"I'm already prepared," Kevin purred as he let my cock slip out of his mouth. "Do you want to put that monster in my ass?"
"Yes," I answered as I pulled him to his feet. Kissing him, I reached for his groin and massaged it through his pants. He moaned loudly and deepened the kiss. We played some really good tonsil hockey before he pulled away and lost the pants.
"Fuck me. I want you to give it to me good," he said, lust dripping off his words as he bent over and braced himself on the table.
"Happy to oblige," I replied as I lined up my cock and started to push into him. Kevin buried his face in his arms and muffled out a scream. He hadn't been kidding that he'd prepared himself, he was perfectly stretched out and lubed. Man, he'd really been trolling for a fuck tonight. Part of me was glad he'd come to me, the other part was still in Dominic's room picturing him fucking one of those girls.
I got pissed when that thought crossed my mind and took it out on Kevin's ass. One hard thrust and I bottomed out inside of him. His squeals of delight were muffled so we didn't invite company, but I could hear him just fine. Pulling out slowly, I grabbed his hips tightly before slamming back into him.
"This is what you wanted, isn't it, Kevin?" I grunted as I fucked him hard.
"Yes, oh god, yes," he panted as his ass took my onslaught. "Faster, give me everything you've got, Yuri."
"Beg me," I growled, intentionally slowing down and messing with him.
"Please, fuck me hard and fast. I want that cock to pound into me so hard you break me," Kevin pleaded. Great, another one who liked pain. What kind of men was I attracting here?
I heard a noise as I started to thrust into Kevin faster. Looking up, I saw Dominic standing in the back doorway leading to one of the studies. I stared at him as I fucked Kevin hard and fast. Not looking embarrassed for interrupting, his eyes never left mine as he watched.
"You like this, don't you?" I asked him, but Kevin answered.
"Yes, I love your cock," he purred. "Fuck me good, Yuri."
Dominic didn't say a word, just watched us. I was drunk enough to not care if I was stepping over lines. "You love the feel of my big dick in your ass?"
"Yes," Kevin hissed. "I'm going to come."
"Not yet, I've got a lot left in me," I growled as I slapped his hand away from his own cock. Just to be a shit, I leaned over and licked Kevin's ear. When I glanced back up, Dominic was gone. Taking the fun out of the sex I was having.
"Please, please let me come, Yuri," Kevin begged.
"Fine, come," I grumbled. Kevin stroked his dick a few times before he cried out and shot his seed on the side of the table. I cried out my release seconds later when his ass clamped down on my cock. Still thrusting, I pumped his ass full of my cum.
When I was done, I pulled out of him and gave his ass a smack. Without a word, I went and grabbed my clothes. I got dressed and left the room before he'd even stood back up. But I took the bottle of booze with me. Taking a long swig of it, I decided it was time to have a little chat with Dominic. Jogging up to my room, I quickly showered and went to the adjoining door. I walked in quietly and closed the door behind me.
"Yuri, yes," Dominic hissed as he fingered his ass. I had a great view of him. He was kneeling on the bed, three fingers in his ass as he stroked his cock. I walked towards him silently. "Yes, shove that big cock in my ass."
He was so focused on what he was doing, he didn't even notice I was standing right behind him. "Is that an invitation?" I whispered as I licked along his neck.
"Fuck!" he screamed as he came. His orgasm was so intense that his entire body shook. I pushed a finger into his ass along with his and massaged his prostate as he climaxed. Wrapping my other arm over his chest, I held him to me as his dick shot ropes of pearly white seed all over his hand and bed.
"You are so fucking beautiful," I told him as he finish
ed. I finally had the chance I'd wanted since I met him, and I ran my fingers through his hair. Holding him to me as we pulled our fingers out of his ass, I reveled in the feel of the silk I was touching. I'd never seen or felt such amazing hair in my life.
"Let me go, I'm not gay," he panted as he tried to get away from me.
"Really? Straight men normally jack off to the idea of another man fucking them?" I snorted.
"Please, Yuri, let me go," Dominic whispered. That got my attention, and I removed my arms from him. He scrambled away from me and pulled part of the blanket over his spent cock. "I can't be gay, I'm a ruler of my people."
"Who ever said they were mutually exclusive?" I asked, completely confused, horny, and drunk. "You're in charge, if anyone gets to be with whoever they want, it's you."
"I've never been with a man, I just can't," he said, looking away from me. I wasn't having any of that. Crawling on the bed, losing my towel in the process, I grabbed his small chin in one of my large hands.
"Who says you can't be gay and rule?"
"My father did once when I was younger," Dominic answered, not fighting my hold. "He hadn't been talking about me, but the ruler of Egypt. I heard him tell my mother and his advisors that no one could rule effectively and be a homo."
"He said that?" I asked, completely shocked. "That might be true in the human world, but vampires aren't like that. Being gay in our community is much more accepted."
"But not by everyone," he whispered as tears filled up his eyes. "I just can't be gay when I know my father would have hated me for it."
"Being gay isn't a choice, Dominic," I said quietly. When the first tear slipped out of his eyes, I grabbed him and pulled him onto my lap. He looked so fragile and distraught it just about broke my heart. "I don't want to speak ill of the dead, but your dad was an ass for saying that. Your sexual preference doesn't determine if you're a good ruler or not."
"There's enough upheaval with the changes I'm making, I can't just announce I'm gay on top of that." Dominic sniffled. He snuggled closer to me, holding onto me as if his life depended on it. "I've already got someone or several someones wanting me dead. I can't be gay."
"Dom, you're gay whether you admit it or not, baby," I replied.
"Please, don't do this to me right now," he whispered.
"Do what, baby?"
"Make me deal with this or talk about it," Dominic answered. "Please, not tonight? You're the first man I've ever wanted so badly it hurts. I wanted it to be me you fucked on the pool table, and I don't know what to do with that. Can we please just go to bed?"
"Okay, sweetheart, we can shelve this conversation for tonight," I said as I kissed his forehead. Before I could move away, Dominic wrapped his arms around my neck and pulled me down to his lips. I moaned and melted into the kiss. He tasted better than I'd dreamed. I licked along his lips, and he gasped. Taking advantage of his open mouth, I slid my tongue inside.
This is what I had been looking for, this passion, this desire. He didn't just want me for a quick or kinky fuck. Dom wanted me, Yuri, the man. I explored every inch of his mouth with my tongue for several moments before he pushed back away from me.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have done that," he cried out. His face read of lust, confusion, fear, and panic.
"It's okay, baby, I'll go," I said as I moved him off my lap. It killed something inside of me to leave him, but it was what he was asking for.
"Stay. Stay with me," he whispered as I got off the bed. Staring at him, I saw the scared man who desperately needed to feel safe. Nodding, I climbed under the covers along with Dom and pulled him against my chest. He sighed loudly and wrapped his arms around mine as they wrapped around him. Slowly, he relaxed in my embrace, and I watched him drift off to sleep.
What had he gone through, living thirty years denying who he really was? I couldn't fathom the pressure he was already under, plus the lack of love he'd grown up with being orphaned at such a young age. He’d just inherited the rule of all of our kind in France, and now, someone was out to get him. Fuck! I'd be ready for the padded room with just that. To top it off, he was so far in the closet he was trying to lie to himself.
And I was falling for him. I had to be stupid or just a glutton for punishment. Closing my eyes, I had a feeling it was both.
CHAPTER 4
I awoke to soft lips on my neck. Shivering as I opened my eyes, I saw it was Dominic. He glanced up at me, seemingly worried I'd reject him. I smiled as I thought on how to squash those fears. Moving quickly, I rolled over so he was under me. He let out a small yelp and stared at me in surprise.
"Good morning," I purred as I leaned down and claimed his lips. This time he was brave and slid his tongue in my mouth. I groaned, deepening the kiss as my hands roamed his much smaller body. When he wrapped his slim legs around my hips, I just about lost it.
"You're fucking huge," he whispered, sounding apprehensive.
"We won't do that today, you need to work up to someone of my size, baby," I answered as I pushed some of his silky hair off his face. "I would never hurt you, Dom, not even during sex, I couldn't bear it if I caused you pain."
He smiled as he kissed me again, and pulled me closer. I reached down and pulled off his pajama bottoms. Dom moaned loudly as I touched his hard cock, just running my fingers along it. Having an idea, I pushed myself off of him a bit more. Then I grabbed both our dicks and started slowly stroking them.
"Oh shit, I'm almost there already," he gasped. I smiled down at him as I moved my hand faster.
"Nice to know I affect you like that," I replied, trying to make him feel at ease. It seemed to work because he smiled widely and ran his hands over my arms. We both moaned as I squeezed our dicks a little tighter. Dominic went wild then, his head turning from side to side on the pillow as he groaned in pleasure. "Look at me, Dom, don't close your eyes."
Immediately, he stopped thrashing about and stared at me. "It's too much, too intense."
"Just let go, baby," I whispered. "I'll catch you. Only feel what I'm doing to our bodies."
"Oh fuck, yes, Yuri!" he cried out as he came. His eyes never left mine as he panted and yelled as wave after wave of his orgasm hit him. Feeling his warm seed on my hand and stomach, plus the look on Dom's face, was all it took to push me over the edge as well. I roared out my release as I watched my cock explode. Streams of my cum shot all over us, mixing in with Dom's.
Something primal went through me right then. I desperately wanted to claim Dominic as my own forever. Biting my lip, I tried to regain my sanity while still staring intently at his neck. I wanted him, all of him.
"I have to get to a meeting," Dom said quietly when we were both done. My eyes snapped up to his, shock running through me. Didn't he feel it too? Or did I mean that little to him? Was I just the quick hand job in the morning, and then he was on his way?
"Oh, okay," I replied as I moved off of him. Without a word, he got off the bed and went into the bathroom. I sat there staring at the closed door in complete dismay. What the fuck just happened here?
Shaking my head, I got off the bed and headed to my room. Once behind the closed door, I showered up and got ready for the day. Maybe he was just freaked out about being with a man for the first time? In all my centuries, I couldn't remember ever being dismissed like that after making out with someone. Then again, I'd done it to men when it didn't mean anything to me. But it had to mean something to him, didn't it?
Deciding to table my issues for now, I left my room and walked to the kitchen. On the way, I realized there was a call I had to make. I dialed Alexander, hoping he was awake still with the time difference.
"Hello, Yuri?" he asked, sounding like he'd been woken up.
"Yeah, sorry, Alexander." I sighed as I got my breakfast and coffee. "I forgot about the time difference, my bad."
"No worries, what's up?"
"Their security needs a lot of work here, and I don't want outside guys doing the installation and training. Any chance you cou
ld send me a few of Rune's techies?"
"Why are you not contacting the council there?"
"For one, I want guys I trust to know what they’re doing," I answered honestly. "The other reason, I think my call should tell you why."
"I read you loud in clear," he said, sounding much more awake. "Do you need backup?"
"I think I'm good," I replied, nodding at Rick and his team as they came into the kitchen as well. "I cleared one of the security teams, and they're open to change and working with me. When the threat is passed, I wanted to talk to you about sending some of them to the camp to be trained. They're not warriors, but they can hold their own. If they're going to protect the Grand Duc after I leave, they need more training."
Rick's gaze never left mine as he nodded in agreement. A couple of the other guys raised an eyebrow, but I knew they wouldn't have any objections. Not really. They knew that they needed more fieldwork and training to be effective.
"I'll pass on that request, but in the meantime I'll send you some techs," he said then paused. "Actually, I'm going to send a few post-trans as well. Our systems are already up-to-date, a few of our guys would benefit from seeing this sort of upgrade."
"And give me a few sets of extra eyes and ears." I snickered, knowing full well what he was up to.
"Yeah, that too. Don't fight me on this, Yuri."
"Nope, I think it's smart."
"It has to be bad if you're not arguing with me," Alexander said carefully. "Should we be worried?"
"Nothing we've not seen before, but not an easy assignment either," I replied, knowing I had people listening around me.
"Read you loud and clear, brother. Be safe and get your ass home in one piece."
I snorted. "Aww, shucks, I think you miss me, honey."
"Watch it, or I'll tell Dimitri you were flirting with me."
"Yeah, right. Dimitri would never believe that about me. He may be your mate, but he's one of my best friends. He knows my feelings about other people's mates." I laughed before I gave him the zinger. "Besides, Dimitri's more my taste anyway."
