STORY EXCERPT

Darren hated the way he felt at that moment as he sat inside the steakhouse during lunch hour. There were so many conflicting emotions going through his heart and mind that it was as if his skin was constricting his flesh and bones. He just wanted to tear the layer off and escape, but he was trapped in his body and there was no way out. He observed the interactions between Casey and Brett, trying to tamp down the insane surge of envy boiling deep within him.

The sensation was unlike any of those ever conveyed in the songs that he wrote and sang. It was so much worse. He had experienced deep and intense crushes in the past, but he got over them. However, he couldn’t seem to shake off the infatuations that were coursing through his entire being. It was that powerful, not to mention greedy. He wasn’t only attracted to Brett. If that was the case, he could probably work through his feeling and move on somehow. Unfortunately, he was also falling for Casey.

Yes, ladies and gentlemen. He, Darren Winters, one of the most popular and most successful singers in the world, is a selfish asshole who desires both Casey and Brett, two men who happen to be in a blissful relationship with each other.

He scoffed under his breath at his inner monologue and attempted to ignore the painful clenching of his heart, knowing that he would never get what he yearned for the most. His net worth of more than three billion dollars couldn’t buy him the affections that he craved for more than anything else he ever wanted. If he could have just a fraction of what Casey and Brett shared with each other, he would be more than willing to lose everything. It was lonely at the top and he was tired of it. It was getting tougher and damn near impossible to fake a smile in public.

“Earth to Darren.”

He jumped a little in his seat and gave Brett a sheepish smile. “Sorry. Did you say something?”

Brett shook his head at him before pointing at his plate. “You’ve barely made a dent on your steak. Is it that horrible?”

He looked down at the food in front of him and cut out a small slice. Then, he put it in his mouth and chewed the meat as fast as he could before swallowing it. “It’s delicious.”

He almost cringed when both Brett and Casey eyed him with a similar worried expression. “Are you okay, D?”

He nodded at Casey. “Maybe still a little tired. Too many promotional activities for my latest album and hours on the set for the movie. I just need more rest.”

“You sure?” Brett asked. “Maybe we should cancel our plan for this afternoon, so that you can get a few extra hours of sleep.”

“No!” he exclaimed louder than he meant to. He blushed when he realized that everyone in the steakhouse was now peeking at their table, so he inhaled a bit shakily and lowered his volume. “I mean, it will be cool to hang out with the two of you at my place.”

“But—”

“Casey, it’s fine,” he cut his movie co-star off midsentence. “I’ll enjoy some company. I promise. Unless you don’t want to.”

“Are you kidding me? I would love to see your place. I’m not sure if I’d ever be able to afford a penthouse like yours.”

“And I’ll reach your place around half past six,” Brett added.

After that, Brett and Casey did their best to include him in their conversations, but he wasn’t sure if he fooled them enough into believing that he was really all right. It took all of his acting skills into putting on a facade for the next twenty minutes or so as he ate and responded to either Brett or Casey. He couldn’t be more relieved when there were a few people who approached their table to request his autograph or take some photographs with him. That moment gave him the chance to compose himself and he was more ready to face the two men afterward.

“Is it always like that?” Casey asked.

“Yeah. You’ll experience it soon enough,” he answered.

“Oh, he has,” Brett interjected, sounding gleeful yet a little strained. “Some girls asked Casey for autographs at the grocery when we were out shopping last week.”

He wondered if something had gone wrong between Brett and Casey at the grocery store, but he didn’t think it was his place to question the two men about their relationship. Thus, he bit his lips and nodded in silence.

“Just five teenagers who probably remembered me from the press conference or something,” Casey explained.

Darren noted that Casey didn’t seem disturbed, so he chalked it up to him being oversensitive. “Based on Johnathan’s track record, the movie will be a huge success. You’ll need to hire a couple of bodyguards and start disguising yourself when going out in public.”

“I bet,” Brett snorted.

Again, he was taken aback by the stiffness in Brett’s tone of voice, but the man was still grinning. He couldn’t help the concern brewing deep in his guts.

ADULT EXCERPT

“After eleven years of dealing with the paparazzi, it gets really old and irritating,” Darren blurted out before blushing when Brett raised an eyebrow at him. “Sorry, Brett. Not all.”

Brett chuckled at him. “I got it. I’m just teasing you.”

He nodded in relief. “Damn! I’m getting too old for this shit. I ache from my neck all the way down to my toes.”

“Didn’t sleep well last night?” Casey asked.

He shook his head. “Barely managed a little more than five hours.”

He sat up and grabbed his smartphone from the right, front pocket of his pants. He needed to check in with Anthony. He groaned when his shoulders were being massaged out of the blue. He tilted his head to the back and grinned at Casey, who was now sitting behind him.

“Do you like it?”

“Yes! You have magic fingers.”

Casey guffawed while Brett snickered and sat next to him. Brett and he exchanged soft smiles as they looked into each other’s eyes. He loved Brett’s gray eyes. They were beautiful and he could lose himself in them for the rest of his life. His breath hitched when Brett leaned closer toward him and pressed their lips together. The other man’s lips were soft against his. He whimpered a little when Brett’s tongue darted out and licked his lips. He opened his mouth and felt Brett’s warm breath as they inhaled and exhaled almost at the same time before their tongues lapped against each other.

He couldn’t stop the rumbling groan from deep in his throat as their gentle kisses turned more passionate and their hands began to roam all over each other’s bodies. He shuddered even harder when he felt Casey’s tongue tickling his right earlobe and licking all around it. He was so lost in the pleasurable sensation that he couldn’t focus on most of the things that were happening around him. Hence, he was startled when he felt Casey’s firm body and thick, hard cock pressing close against his back. He didn’t know when Casey managed to strip himself naked, but he was all for it.

He broke away from kissing Brett and turned around to face Casey. He gazed at his boyfriend’s body, appreciating the brawny chest and abdominal muscles. His eyes widened when he took in the sight of Casey’s cock. Casey snickered at him and he blushed. He was acting as if he had never seen a large cock before. He wasn’t a virgin and he had watched enough pornographic movies to know that there were a lot of men with huge dicks out there. Nevertheless, Casey’s cock was within his grasp, so he couldn’t stop himself from admiring it.

“You like my giant cock?”

He chortled and did a slow striptease until he was completely naked. Then, he resumed sitting on the couch and let Casey and Brett fondle his balls and caress his cock to their hearts’ content.

“It’s not two mouthfuls,” Brett blurted out.

Darren rolled his eyes. “Jerry was being an asshole back then. My cock isn’t that thick.”

“May I put it in my mouth, D?” Casey knelt on the floor in front of him and pleaded.

“Yeah…”

He never knew that he could be aroused by a man begging for a taste of his dick. Judging by his pulsing and leaking cock, he certainly was. He groaned when Casey wrapped his cock head in his mouth and began to suck it like a lollipop. The incredible sensation was amplified by Brett diving in and sniffing at his balls before lapping at them one right after the other over and over again. He threw his head back and leaned against the couch as his lovers drove him closer to the brink of an orgasm with their tongues and lips. Within minutes, he could feel his balls tightening up, and he pulled the two men’s heads away from his crotch.

“What—”

“Too close, Brett. I don’t want to come yet.”

He pulled both men off the ground and engaged them in a sensual three-way kiss with his eyes closed. He wasn’t aware whose lips and tongues he was tasting for the next few minutes, but he couldn’t care less. Everything felt so amazing and he craved for more. He gripped Casey’s cock in his hand and stroked it, causing the other man to moan out loud. Then, Casey stood on the couch and positioned his cock right in front of his lips. Darren swallowed his saliva and opened his mouth, taking in his lover’s cock one delicious inch at a time.

He was so engrossed in pleasing Casey that he jumped a little when there was another hard cock slapping his cheek. He released Casey’s cock and looked at Brett’s instead. It was slightly smaller than Casey’s, but it was a mouthful without a doubt. He was so hungry for Brett’s cock that he choked on it when he attempted to deep-throat it. He had to pull back a little and relaxed his throat before trying for the second time. It managed to slide in and he whined in triumph as he buried his nose within the bush of Brett’s pubic hair.
