STORY EXCERPT

And there was that look again. The guarded, almost angry look. What the hell was up with his mate? Was the guy bipolar or something? One minute he was nice, friendly, and smiling. The next he was guarded and stiff, with a pinched expression. Maybe this wasn’t such a good idea? Maybe fate made a mistake and they weren’t meant to be together?

Just then the loud roar of a motorcycle came from outside. The noise broke their gaze as Julien looked to the window over Parker’s shoulder. Parker grabbed his glass and looked down. He didn’t know what to do. He really liked his mate and wanted to get to know him better. Get to their mating, but after the past few minutes, he wasn’t sure if that was such a good idea. With the looks his mate had been giving him, Parker was sure Julien was about to reject him. Did it have something to do with him living with his brother? Or that he owned the business seeing as very few people in Sanctuary actually owned their businesses? Then Julien’s words brought him out of his thoughts.

“So…maybe we should get going. It’s getting late.”

Yup, it was official. His mate was giving him the bum’s rush. “Sure. I could use a good night’s sleep after the day I’ve had. Thanks for dinner,” Parker said as he stood. He pulled out his wallet and grabbed a few twenties from inside, then went to move to the counter.

“What are you doing?” Julien asked.

“Going to pay the bill,” Parker answered simply.

“No, I got it. I asked you out,” Julien argued as he placed a hand over Parker’s, stopping him from fully taking the money from his wallet.

“You don’t have to do that. I wasn’t expecting you to pay for me. How about we go Dutch?”

And there was that friendly smile again, the one that made Julien’s eyes twinkle. What the hell was up with this guy?

“I know I don’t have to but I want to. How about we grab a coffee or something to go and you can get those? We can drink it as we take a long stroll around town back to the restaurant,” Julien offered.

He was beginning to get a headache from all this yo-yoing back and forth. The front door opened and Parker caught sight of the man that entered, and froze. Shit, shit, shit. Octavian . And lord did he look good, dressed in his black leather pants and jacket, with the tight black tee underneath. Chains hanging around his neck and across one hip, and those damn boots Parker loved so much. And don’t even get him started on the man’s hair and eyes, as well as the small ring piercing in his left brow, and the multiple piercings in both ears. His shoulder-length shaggy brown hair was a mess, but made him look like he just rolled out of bed, the look sexy as fuck. And the black guy-liner around his emerald green eyes made them look richer, and Parker just wanted to fall into them.

“Well, hello, love. Funny seeing you here,” Octavian said smoothly as he slowly strolled toward them.

“Tavi, what are you doing here?” Parker asked nervously.

“I came looking for you, love. Imagine my surprise when I hadn’t seen my man in a while and went to his place to check up on him, only to find out that he had moved out, without leaving a word,” Octavian said nicely, but Parker could see the anger in his eyes.

“It wasn’t like that, Tavi,” Parker quickly said.

“You two know each other I gather,” Julien said, bringing Parker’s attention back to him.

Shit. Julien looked even more pissed than he had before. His eyes were glowing with anger and his jaw was clenched.

“We sure do, and who the hell are you?” Octavian asked angrily, turning to face Julien.

“Nobody of importance, obviously,” Julien stated, then turned away.

“Wait, Julien, it’s not what you think,” Parker pleaded.

Julien stopped, then spun back around to face them, crossing his thick arms over his large chest. “Okay, then tell me what it is. Because from where I’m standing, it sure looks like you already have a boyfriend.”

“Boyfriend? Look here, bear. I have no idea who you are, but… Hell, Parker, are you shacking up with some other guy?” Octavian asked as he turned angry eyes on him.

“No! I just met Julien today, Tavi, and both of you are wrong about the other. Can we please go somewhere that’s less public and I’ll explain?”

“I’ll wait for you both outside,” Octavian replied, then walked back out of the café.

Parker nervously looked to Julien, hoping his mate would give him a chance to explain, but not very confident that he would, if his body language had anything to say about it. “Please, Julien. I know this looks bad, but there is something you should know about Octavian, and I would really appreciate it if you would at least give me the chance to explain it to you.”

“Fine. Let’s go,” Julien said through clenched teeth, then turned and walked toward the counter. He dropped a few twenties, then headed for the door.

ADULT EXCERPT

Julien couldn’t seem to form words in his head right now, and he definitely couldn’t speak any. So, he just nodded.

Parker’s fingers went to the buttons on his work shirt as Octavian’s fingers worked his pants open. Together his two men stripped him of all his clothes and Julien just stood there and let them. He ached to touch one of them, both of them, but he kept his hands at his sides, fists clenched. He only moved a limb when one of his mates moved it for him to discard his clothes.

Suddenly, he stood bare before them and two sets of lips began to explore his body. One in the back and one in the front. Lips caressed, tongues licked, and teeth nipped, as four hands glided over all his exposed skin. Octavian latched onto his left nipple and sucked as he played with the barbell with his tongue.

“I fucking love all these tattoos,” Parker whispered, his hot breath blowing over Julien’s heated flesh.

“Mmm. I just want to lick every one of them, along with every bump and ridge of this gloriously muscled body. And his nipples are so responsive to my touch. It’s very erotic,” Octavian stated, then dropped to his knees.

 Julien’s eyes widened and he gasped with the realization of what his mate was about to do. Octavian wrapped his fingers around the base of Julien’s cock, holding his hard shaft out toward his face, then Octavian kissed the tip. “Have you ever had a vampire blowjob before, mate?”

Julien just shook his head. “You’ll love it,” Parker whispered against his neck.

Octavian looked up at him and their gazes met and Julien could see the heat and mischief in his mate’s eyes. Octavian stuck out his tongue, dragging the tip along the underside of his cock from base to tip, then speared it into the slit. Julien’s knees started to tremble as a deep groan escaped his throat.

Octavian reached between his legs with the other hand and cupped his balls, rolling them gently. Then Julien felt two hands on his ass cheeks, spreading them apart. He didn’t want to look away from what his vampire mate was doing, but he wanted to see what Parker was up to. Julien turned his head and looked down behind him, just in time to see Parker’s light brown head move toward him, then a wet tongue slid over his crease. “Fuck!” Julien said through clenched teeth.

“Now you guessed our surprise,” Octavian said with a wink when Julien looked at him again.

Octavian ran the tip of his tongue over Julien’s leaking head, then wrapped his lips around the helmet and began to suck, just as Parker thrust his tongue inside Julien’s ass. His hands shot out and grabbed Octavian’s shoulders. Julien needed something to hold onto or he was afraid his knees would give out and he would fall on his face.

His vampire mate slid his lips down his shaft as his tongue pulsed against the thick vein that ran along the underside. The hand holding his sac gave a little squeeze, then pulled down slightly, causing a whole new sensation to rush through him.

Parker’s hands pulled his cheeks apart wider, and he began to feast on Julien’s ass. Julien had never felt anything so amazing in all his life. He had always wondered what a rim job would feel like, but had never received one. He had always given that pleasure to his former boyfriends, and knew they enjoyed it, but no one had ever done it for him. Even though they had each loved having Julien do it for them, they all said the same thing. It was too yucky, or too taboo. But here was his mate, his Parker, down on his knees, giving Julien one of the best sexual experiences of his life.

Just as Octavian took Julien down his throat fully, and his nose pressed against the curly hairs of his groin, Julien felt a finger slide into his ass. “Holy fucking hell! Yes! Oh gods, yes, mates!” Julien cried out as his hold on Octavian tightened. He couldn’t hold back his pleasure any more. Not only had none of his previous lovers ever eaten his ass, but no one had ever played with his ass or fucked him. Not that he didn’t want it, but because of his size, he guessed everyone always assumed he was just a top.

He had played with his own ass on occasion and even had a few dildos at home that he loved to play with, but this was so much more. As he got lost in his thoughts and what his mates were doing to his body, Parker added a second and then a third finger to his ass, and scissored them, stretching him, as Parker continued to thrust his tongue around Julien’s opening and dip it inside of him.

Octavian’s head began to bob up and down at a steady pace as he sucked Julien hard. Lights flashed behind his closed lids and Julien’s head began to get light. He didn’t know how much more he could take of this dual pleasure, but he didn’t want it to stop. His seed churned inside his balls, aching to be released as the heavy sac pulled up tight against his body.

Julien moved his hands to Octavian’s head and gripped him tight, but not too tight, he didn’t want to hurt his mate. Suddenly, Octavian stopped moving, but kept up the suction on his cock. Julien looked down at him in confusion until Octavian grabbed Julien’s hips and started thrusting him, forcing his cock down Octavian’s throat. Suddenly, he understood what a wonderful gift his mate was offering him. Octavian was letting him take over as he remained still and was the vessel to Julien’s pleasure. Octavian relaxed his throat and jaw, and closed his eyes as he began to caress his hands up the insides of Julien’s thighs.
