[Siren Classic ManLove: Erotic Romance, Alternative, Paranormal, Shape-shifter, MM, HEA]
Tommy Williams thought humans didn't have fated mates. It turns out, he does… but his mate is in love with someone else.
Tommy has been out and proud since eighth grade. Unfortunately, he's never met a partner that he really connected with. When he learns of paranormals and fated mates, Tommy wishes for his very own perfect match—but humans don't have soulmates.
Then Tommy meets Zach Lawson, a wolf shifter.
He's instantly smitten. But Zach has a lot of baggage. No, it's worse than that. Zach's heart has belonged to someone else for years. Maybe Tommy's wish didn't come true after all. Tommy's tempted to cut and run, but he's not the type to give up—not when it's the perfect match he's always desired.
Can Tommy help Zach recover from a forced mating? Can he help him get over the love and betrayal he's suffering from? Can Zach love Tommy despite the impossible odds stacked against them?
STORY EXCERPT
“Tommy, you remember my brother, Zach. Zach, you remember our friend Tommy from Walden,” Chad said, confusion lacing his voice.
I didn't know why Zach had growled. I nodded slowly and stood to welcome him. “Yes, I remember you,” I said. I reached out to take his hand.
As soon as we touched, it was as if a shot of electricity sparked between us. Zach's eyes rounded, and his nose flared. My dick began to harden. I’d never felt such a wave of lust from a simple handshake. I had no idea what was happening to me.
“It's very nice to meet you properly, Tommy,” he said. His deep voice went straight to my cock.
“You, too,” I said, finding my voice.
He released my hand, then took a seat next to mine. Granted, it was the only seat left at the table.
“What brings you to Belle Fort?” he asked.
I turned to face him. “My nana. She had an accident and broke her leg. She lives in Tyler, and I came to help her until my sister gets back from her vacation.”
“Hello, what can I get you?” a hurried voice asked before Zach could respond to me.
The others at the table gave their orders while I scanned the menu.
“For you, sir?”
I glanced up to find the waitress staring at me. “Um, I'll have a bowl of tomato soup and a grilled cheese. Also, can I get a large bowl of your sausage potato soup to go?”
“Absolutely, honey. I'll get your orders in,” she said and turned away.
Zach growled low beside me, and I turned to look at him. He smiled wryly and asked, “Is that going to be enough? Just a soup and sandwich?”
I smiled. “Yeah, it's actually my usual lunch. That or a salad.”
He nodded, seeming to put that information away. Talking resumed around the table, and I turned back to the others. I didn't understand why I was reacting to Zach this way. Yes, he was sexy as sin, but I’d thought the same thing when I’d seen him last week. What was so different now?
“How long until your sister gets back?” Zach asked, pulling me out of my thoughts.
“She and her family went on a Disney cruise. They should be back Sunday.” I turned back to Chad and Addison. “Maggie said you’re moving today.” I needed to not look at Zach. I didn’t trust myself not to say or do something stupid.
“Yes, the movers just finished packing up the truck. We'll be leaving tomorrow morning. Last day with my family,” Chad replied as the waitress came and put our plates in front of us.
“Here's the soup, sweetie,” she said, placing a bag on the table beside my plate.
I heard a small growl to my left but ignored it. Zach seemed to be growling a lot. Maybe it was just his thing.
I smiled up at her. “Thank you so much.”
“Do you want some of my burger?” Zach asked quietly.
I turned to face him; I hadn’t realized he was so close. All I had to do was lean forward, and our lips would be touching. I shook my head. “No…uh…no thanks. I'm a vegetarian.”
He pulled back like I’d hit him, and his eyes widened comically. “A vegetarian?”
I laughed at his reaction. “Yes, I haven't eaten meat in a couple of years. I don't mind it. It's just not my favorite. Not to mention, I’d probably get sick after not eating it for so long.”
“Hello, Zach,” a strong male voice said.
I turned to see a handsome, dark-haired man standing behind us. Zach's face clouded with anger. “Robert,” Zach said through clenched teeth.
“Robby, good to see you,” Zach's mom said.
“Hi, Mrs. L,” Robert said.
“Why don't you join us? We'll get another—” Alisha began.
“He can't. He was just leaving,” Zach cut in.
“I just got—” Robert began.
“No, you were leaving,” Zach said again, more forcefully.
“Zachary Tyler Lawson, what has gotten into you?” Zach's mother asked.
“Mom, leave it alone. Robert is leaving,” Chad said, giving Robert a menacing stare.
I shifted my head between them. Something was going on, and I tried to put the puzzle pieces together. Is this an ex? If so, who is that woman out front? And why was she yelling at Zach? Is he bi? Why do I even care?
Before anyone could respond, the waitress arrived. “How is everything?” she asked.
“Can I have my check, please?” I asked quickly. The air around me was too tense, and I was nervous being around men who could easily crush me.
“You're leaving?” Zach asked, looking at me in surprise.
“Yeah, I have to go make sure my nana’s okay. I've been away for a while,” I said, quickly standing up. “Addison, Chad, it was great seeing you. I'm sure I'll run into you both again in Walden. It was nice meeting you, Alisha, and you, Maggie,” I said.
“You didn't finish your meal,” Zach said, standing up.
“I'm fine. I really need to get back to my nana. It was good seeing you again,” I said, grabbing my soup.
Before Zach could reply, I turned and rapidly made my way to the front of the diner. I needed to get out of here. I needed air. My heart was beating so fast it felt like it was going to explode. I glanced back at Zach one more time. His eyes bored into me as I exited.
It's for the best. I can’t get involved with him. Zach obviously has too much going on, I thought to myself. But why did I feel like I’d left a part of me at the table?
ADULT EXCERPT
“I'm going to start the fire. Don't go anywhere,” I said, leaning forward and kissing his sweet lips.
I turned to get to work on warming the cabin up. The temperature had dropped, and we needed to get some heat circulating. After the blaze was set, I turned, and my heart stopped. He was the most beautiful sight I'd ever seen.
“You going to stand there gawking, or are you going to join me?” Tommy asked with a smirk.
He’d removed all his clothes and lay stark naked, slowly stroking his long, hard prick. He was smaller than my eight inches but not by much. He had no hair anywhere. Does he shave or wax? I shook my head. Who the fuck cares? He’s mine for the taking.
I moved forward, dropping to my knees in front of him. I slowly brushed my fingers over his milky white skin. It was soft as silk. I wanted to explore every inch of him. I leaned forward and tasted his lips again. My essence from earlier still mingled with his own unique flavor. He groaned as my hand wrapped around his stiff cock.
I broke away from the kiss. It was my turn to taste him. I leaned down and went for it. I took him into my mouth, and he bucked at the contact, causing me to gag. I held him down, stopping him from moving as I licked up and down his shaft. He loudly groaned as I bathed his balls with my tongue.
“Fuck, yes, that feels amazing!” he said.
My need was overwhelming me. I needed to be inside him. I lifted his legs, revealing his tight little hole. I teased his ring with my tongue, and he writhed and moaned in pleasure. I continued to feast on his ass, adding a saliva-slicked finger to his hole. His muscles began to relax, and his hole pulsed as if needing to be filled. I pulled back.
“No!” he cried.
“Don't worry, baby. I’m not going anywhere,” I said.
I started throwing pillows off the couch as I searched for the lube I had out here. I'd taken to jacking off every night after our dates. My hands felt the bottle, and joy shot through me. I held it up like it was a trophy. Unsnapping the cap, I quickly lubed my shaft and moved between Tommy's legs.
I pressed forward, my cock slowly entering his tight passage. I groaned, sinking deeper until I was fully sheathed within his body. I didn't move, allowing him to adjust to me. I leaned over him and looked down into his eyes. I prayed my unguarded expression allowed him to see the love I had for him. He lifted his head and kissed my lips.
“I’m ready. Make me yours,” he said softly.
I withdrew my cock slowly and pushed back into his warm passage, gradually picking up my pace until I was thrusting in and out of his tight ass in earnest. He cried in ecstasy as I changed my angle, causing my cock to rub against his prostate.
“God! I'm going to come!” he yelled.
I continued my assault, his ass tightening around my cock. The pleasure was beyond imagination. My canines descended, and my dick swelled even larger, his chute becoming even tighter. He cried out, and his cum filled the space between us.
