Story
Excerpt:
“To think you’d do something like that
for a man shocks me. Damn, no matter how nice I asked in the past, you always
told me to fuck off and deal with it. Don’t tell me our little Skye is in
love?”
Skye blushed furiously as she jumped up
out of her seat. “Your schedule is pretty empty today, boss man. I suggest we
eat lunch in and go over some of those quarterly repair reports. The annual
report is due soon.”
“Okay, I’ll give you the topic change,
but just this once.” With a smirk, he grabbed his cell phone off of the pile of
papers he had been working on. “Good idea on lunch. I’ll message Joshua and see
if he wants to join us. I’m sure he’ll be itching to hear all about Mr.
Indie-author Carson.”
Skye gasped playfully. “Shit, I can see
it now. The Spanish Inquisition will have nothing on Josh. He keeps warning me
about payback.” Smiling softly, she turned back toward the door. “I’ll go get
the reports and some menus. You call Hottie, and no carrying stories while my
back is turned, or else!”
Tristan hit speed dial on his cell as he
watched Skye flounce from the room. He’d have sworn he seen sparkles and
butterflies floating around her head a few seconds ago. She was that high on
love. A scary image indeed. Chuckling, Tristan turned in his seat to glance out
of the large windows lining one side of his office. It was a beautiful day. The
sun was high in the cloudless sky, illuminating the newly planted flowerbeds
below. He loved this time of year and enjoyed watching the trees grow lush and
green as colorful blossoms lined their thick trunks.
“Hello, handsome. What can I do for
you?” Tristan smiled at the sound of his man’s voice. He loved that southern
accent. Husky and deep. Alluring. “Tristan?”
“Oh, um, sorry, baby. I got lost in one
of those Joshua daydreams.” Joshua laughed out loud, and the sound delighted
Tristan. “Are you free for lunch today? Skye is in schoolmistress mode and is
making me play catch-up with my reports. We’re eating in. Join us, please.”
“I’d love to. I’m free until two, and
then I have a shopping date with Cal. He’s being all top secret about the
location, so I’ve no idea what’s going on. He also mentioned something about a
ring. Damn, I should never have asked him out.”
Tristan frowned as he continued to
listen to his man talk. It wouldn’t be unusual for Callum to want to go ring
shopping for Kari. Their two-year anniversary was drawing near after all.
Speaking of which, his and Joshua’s one-year anniversary wasn’t that far away
either. “I’m sure you’ll have a great time dealing with him, baby. Just stop by
the office any time. Can’t wait to see you.”
“Will do, handsome. Be there soon. I
love you.”
Tristan smiled as those sweet words
resonated within him. He loved hearing them whispered from his lover’s lips.
“I love you too. See you soon.”
Without another word, Tristan disconnected
the call just as Skye came marching back through the double doors of his
office. “Now then, let’s do this, boss man!”
Twenty minutes, and a shitload of
paperwork, later, Joshua strolled through Tristan’soffice door, a beautiful
smile in place.
“Hello, you sexy fuckers, where are my
kisses?”
Skye squealed in delight, pretending to
faint in a total fangirl move as Joshua swooped in to lay a chaste kiss on her
lips.
“Yeah, baby. That’s what I’m talking
about.” With that lopsided grin of his, Joshua then moved around the huge
leather chair Skye was laying in to make his way toward Tristan. “Now it’s your
turn, handsome.”
Tristan arched a brow, feigning
indifference as he watched his man with rapt eyes. He loved this playful side
of him. It got him hotter than when Joshua went caveman on his ass. “I have no
idea what you mean, sir, but you will not find any kisses here.” The
mischievously hot expression that crossed his lover’s features just screamed
that Joshua would get his kiss, and more. Yet before he could voice as much, he
was attacked from behind.
“I’ll take his kiss. Forget him. Gimme!”
Skye pounced on Joshua, making all three of them laugh, just as there was a
sharp knock at the door. “Shit! Saved by the lunch bell, Mr. Malone. For now.”
As Skye skipped off to sort lunch,
Joshua turned back to him, brows frowned. “So, what’s going on with our girl? I
never thought I’d see the day when she lost all that doom and gloom makeup of
hers.” Her unladylike grunt indicated that she’d heard what was being said, but
it didn’t deter Joshua. “She is a looker, not that she wasn’t always, but damn.
I’m going to get in trouble one of these days. I just know it.”
Skye glanced over her shoulder from her
spot at the table, a questioning look in her eyes. “What is that supposed to
mean?”
Joshua grunted at her in return, twining
his fingers through Tristan’s as he headed toward the table his assistant was
laying out for them. “It means if anyone so much as looks at you funny I will
have to spank them. Hard.”
When Skye only rolled her eyes, Tristan
had to fight off a chuckle. Joshua was being serious. He thought of the girl as
a sister, and if anyone hurt her, then they would surely feel Joshua’s wrath.
Feeling the need to reassure his man, Tristan wrapped an arm about Joshua’s
waist, pulling him in for a quick kiss.
“It’s okay, baby. We’ve had this
discussion already. I’ve got the guy’s name and number. If there is anything
off about him, then we’ll be able to deal with it quickly and save our girl’s
virtue.”
This time Skye was the one to laugh.
“Virtue? Sure, guys, you have fun trying to find that shit, never mind saving
it. Now, enough about my love life. Food is ready.”
Taking a seat, Tristan glanced at the
buffet laid out before him. It looked more like a wedding brunch menu than
something three friends would enjoy on any other normal day of the week. The
table was covered with a sheet of crisp white linen, and the centrepiece was
made up of the most beautiful yellow sunflowers he had seen so far this season.
There was a selection of hors d’œuvres, from crab and avocado toast to glazed
salmon, smoked shrimp, and warm olives. All of which were a mix of his and
Joshua’s favorites. These were accompanied with a selection of fresh
sandwiches, stuffed potato skins, pasta, soups, and sliced vegetables for
dipping. A bottle of champagne was chilling in an ice bucket next to a glass
bottle of orange juice and several other bottled sodas. And a Meissen porcelain teapot was steaming
next to a tray full of pastries, cupcakes, and fresh fruit. As usual, Skye had
outdone herself.
“Bon
appétit, mes coeurs.”
Joshua growled low in Skye’s direction,
putting on his best French accent as he began to tease her once more. Their
combined laughter was music to Tristan’s ears. Taking a plate each, they tucked
into one the best lunches Tristan had had in a long time. There was a lot to be
said for spending time with your loved ones.

Excerpt:
Propping his intoxicated man against the
sink basin, Josh reached into the stall and switched on the double-headed
shower. Once satisfied with the temperature, he slowly eased Tristan into the
warm flow before going to close the door.
“No! Come with me, baby. What if I fall
over?” Pouting like a sulky kid, Tristan stared through the glass door, his
eyes heavy lidded with sleep yet full of heat. “I’ll make it worth your while.”
Licking his plump, dusky-colored lips, Tristan arched, his hips undulating as
he stroked his bare chest. “Don’t make me beg.”
On a groan, Josh pushed his boxers off,
exposing the powerful erection beneath, before rushing toward his lover.
Panting hard, they met in the middle, all else forgotten as their mouths came
together in a wet, sloppy kiss. Tristan swallowed Josh’s low groan as he flattened
himself flush against Josh’s solid chest, deepening their kiss, tongues
caressing and teeth lightly nipping. “…love…you…” Moving away, Tristan kissed a
path downward until he was on his knees.
“T, wai—”
His words were cut short as his lover
wasted no time fisting Josh’s throbbing shaft and easing the blunt head into
his welcoming mouth.
“Fuck!” Swinging his hips, he sank balls
deep into the warm cavern of Tristan’s throat, humming in delight as his man
took everything he had to give. “That’s so damn good. Always, fuck.” Tristan
moved forward, changing the angle of his strokes as his head bobbed back and
forth along Josh’s now slick shaft. The rhythm and suction making his sac draw
up tight as he shuddered in delight. “Dammit!”
With a wet plop, Tristan released Josh’s
cock, glancing up at him from under hooded eyes as he continued to stroke him
off. The steam from the shower cloaking him in an ethereal mist. He was so damn beautiful. Those piercing gray
eyes of his, lined with such dark lashes, burned fiercely with both love and
lust.
“I adore that face. Seeing the pleasure
I make you feel. Knowing that I’m the only one who can do that to you.”
Tristan’s voice was husky, the deep tone making Josh’s cock twitch. “That’s
right, baby.” With an attentive tongue, he flicked the tip of Josh’s ruddy,
bulbous head. Suckling on it lightly he teased every ridge and groove
tortuously.
“If you keep that up, I’m going to come.
Hard.”
Squeezing the base of Josh’s throbbing
shaft, Tristan smirked before doubling his efforts. On a grunt, Josh threaded
his hands into his lover’s dark, lush locks as he continued to thrust
shallowly, gasping and groaning as his man took him over the edge with his
mouth alone.
“Don’t. Shit!”
Josh came on a surge, his cock kicking
and pulsing as Tristan sucked him dry. His man was amazing and as per usual
Tristan took great pride in cleaning Josh up, igniting a white-hot fire deep
within his gut. It increased his passion and excitement to almost unbearable
levels.
“I need you. Take me, T, now!”
On a grunt, Tristan tugged hard on
Josh’s hand, bringing him down onto his knees so they were face to face. “Turn
around.”
Doing as he was told, Josh turned to
place his palms on the cool tiled wall, thrusting his ass back against his
man’s hot, throbbing shaft. “Fuck, I need you too, baby.”
Panting hard, Tristan rubbed the bulbous
head of his cock against the tight entrance of Josh’s hole as he reached
overhead for the shower gel. Josh watched raptly as his lover lathered his
fingers with the cold liquid, teasing and preparing Josh for his intrusion. “I
can’t…hell—”
Growling low in his throat, Tristan
began to thrust against Josh harder and harder, the tip of his cock pushing
inside inch by inch until he was buried to the root.
“Hurry, T. I’m about to fucking die
here.”
Tristan chuckled, his hot breath fanning
Josh’s throat as he leaned forward to place chaste kisses to his jaw. “Hold on
tight.”
He didn’t give Josh time to brace
himself, however. On another deep growl, Tristan straightened up on his knees
and began a hard punishing rhythm as he pounded into Josh from behind. The
force of each perfectly angled thrust had both their breaths leaving them on
harsh puffs.
“So. Damn. Good. Fuck!”
Josh nodded in agreement because words
failed him. He could barely breathe, never mind talk. His jaw was too busy
clenching down hard in pleasure to allow for anything else. He was so fucking
close to losing it.
“Tristan. Please.” White-hot heat
suffused his entire body, the blood rushing to his ears and drowning out all
other sounds in the room. “Please.” His cock throbbed deliciously. “Please.”
His balls grew up tight, and his lower back tingled as he met Tristan’s thrust
for thrust. “Please! I’m going to” Just as Josh was about to find his release,
Tristan reached around to grip the base of his shaft, stilling them both as he
leaned in close.
“Never forget this moment, baby. Never
forget that only I can do this for you. That nobody else will ever know you, or
your body, this well. That only I can ever love you this much.” Josh cried out
unintelligibly as he tried to thrust into his lover’s tight fist. “Tell me you
understand. Tell me you love me as much as I do you, Joshua.”
Popping his eyelids open, Josh turned
his head to the side, his forehead meeting Tristan’s as they fought for breath.
Why was Tristan saying this stuff? He knew what he meant to Josh, and vice
versa. But right now Josh’s body was too eager for release to fixate on
anything else.
“I do…love you. Please, T. Please!”
Without another word, Tristan thrust
forward, his hot cock burning Josh from the inside out as it hit that sweet
spot over and over again. On a roar, Josh came, his hands sliding down the
tiles as he collapsed in a sated heap. Jesus, his man knew exactly what way to
work him to make him fall to pieces in his arms.
“Damn, baby. I love you so fucking much.
Let’s get out of here. All I want to do is hold you.”
Reaching over Josh’s head, Tristan
switched off the shower before leading them both outside, where he took his
time drying them with large fluffy towels.
“Come to bed with me.” As usual, Josh
was unable to refuse, so he meekly followed his man to bed, curling into his
side as he opened his arms wide. “I love you, Joshua Malone. No matter what
happens, I’ll always love you. Never forget that.”
“I know. Just as I love you, T.”
