Like Magnets, We Attract

"Were you in some hurry to leave?” the dragon asked, its own prick still clearly rigid within him.
"No. And something tells me that come morning I'm going to be glad not to be sitting astride a saddle.” The flask of brandy was just within the reach of his toes. Without breaking their precious connection, he stretched his leg, dragged the little bottle to within an arm's reach, and had another sip to ease his dried throat. He hadn't noticed screaming quite that much, but he seemed to have, and he expected to do it again. The dragon made another rocking motion. It was all Campion could do to screw the top back on the flask. “Would you care for a drop?"
"Probably risky,” answered the dragon. “Best just to fuck until dawn."
The long tongue came to Campion's groin once more to flick and tease. This time he felt less urgency, less need to rush to the end, and enjoyed this slick-leather feeling over his growing stiffness. The dragon, on the other hand, seemed to be finding its pace, rocking to another fiery climax before Campion was fully erect. The tongue returned warmer, but it returned, and Campion pressed back against the scaly chest in spasms of delicious softness as it licked away his juices.
Campion stared into the embers of the fire. They would keep their warmth for a long time, but the flames no longer leapt high in the night. Ghosts of blue flames danced over the logs, and orange gleams rippled in the blackness as the colors had moved in the gemlike cock of the dragon. He thought he might sleep, and then wondered if he could with a prick still nestled inside him. There certainly was nowhere safer, assuming the dragon itself was safe.
Soon he was drowsing in the scaled arms, and then sleeping. Some time later, he found himself in a vague but lascivious dream of tongues and pricks and a deep inner throbbing. He remembered opals that caressed and gave him good feelings. He remembered supple leather that moved to satisfy him of its own will. His climax struck before he was properly awake, dribbling from him in a pleasing way as he opened his eyes to a grey dawn and the dragon's head draped before him dripping fire from its slackened jaws.
The dragon slipped from him at last with a yawn and a croon. There might be a future Campion should be planning. For now, though, it was enough to watch the grey clouds turn red through the haze of the dragon's smoke and let the torpor of a night well spent fill him.

SOFT FOCUS
By Reno MacLeod and Jaye Valentine
Ethan Bouwer has always been the adventurous sort. A freelance nature photographer, he travels the globe and writes erotica on the side whenever things get a bit slow. Hunting for a topic for his next writing project, he stumbles upon a man named David Turner and the taboo world of BDSM. His curiosity piqued, Ethan discovers that David Turner and his beautiful partner Kiyoshi are coming to town for a convention.
Ethan makes arrangements for them to meet, but little does Ethan know that he is about to embark on a safari into a world more wild and untamed than anything he has ever encountered before.
Warning: This title contains graphic language, m/m sex, bdsm and attempted rape.
Excerpt From SOFT FOCUS:
David put a hand on Ethan's shoulder. Ethan could feel David's other hand tracing the intricate curves of subtly raised ink lightly with the tips of his fingers. David's breath felt warm on the back of Ethan's neck. A shiver shook Ethan to his core.
"May I, Sensei?” David looked down. Kiyoshi's eyes remained on the floor, his arms visibly trembling.
"Perhaps later,” David said, his lips pressing to Ethan's right ear. “I want him all to myself for now. You're excused, Kitten. You may leave Ethan's things on the sofa."
Ethan watched in stunned silence as Kiyoshi rose gracefully to his feet still holding Ethan's things. Kiyoshi placed them on the sofa with care, and as he quickly and quietly departed for one of the bedrooms. Ethan felt suddenly vulnerable. He trusted that David would keep his word and do nothing without permission, but primitive survival instincts drove Ethan's blood pressure spiraling toward the roof. “Should I have a safe-word?"
David chuckled and began a slow, methodical walk around Ethan, one hand stroking his own chin as if he were pondering something important. “I'm only looking at you, Ethan. I don't think you need a safe-word for that. Unless, of course—” David stopped directly in front of Ethan, so close that Ethan figured David could probably count the tiny freckles on his nose. “Unless you would like me to do more than look."
Ethan stopped breathing. His hands felt heavy, and the blood draining from his face gave the sensation that he was actually melting under David's powerful gaze. Blood rushed to other places and Ethan felt himself beginning to stiffen, increasing the feeling of being utterly vulnerable. He was sure David could hear his heart thumping in his chest. “I...” Ethan struggled to put a single thought in order. “It would help me to understand. To really understand the emotion behind what goes on."
One of David's hands slid to cup Ethan's face with his palm, those brown eyes boring into Ethan with intensity that glossy paper couldn't capture. A warm, moist kiss was pressed to Ethan's mouth with the tiniest tease of the tip of tongue. David tugged at the bar-and-hook on the waistband of Ethan's trousers. “Now you need a safe-word."
The tip of Ethan's tongue slipped out, tasting where David's lips had been. He was lost in the flavor until he found his pants being pulled open. His cock leaped against the material. “Zebra,” Ethan said quickly, arching his back slightly to drive his hardness against David's hand.
"Very well.” Ethan's zipper ratcheted down one slow click at a time. David's hand slipped inside Ethan's fly, palming Ethan's blossoming erection that strained in protest against his briefs. “So hard for me already,” David said in a pleased tone. “But I'm certain you can do better."
Eyes fluttering closed, Ethan parted his lips to let a soft cry escape. It had been close to a year since he'd been with a man, but even as his mind traveled through the backlist of all his lovers, not one of them had ever caused the crackle of erotic energy Ethan now felt surging through his body. David had barely touched him and Ethan was already burning up.
"I want you naked in my bed,” David said, lips trailing wetly along Ethan's cheek, palming him harder, Ethan's cock firmly gripped through a layer of soft cotton. “Go to Kiyoshi, and tell him to prepare you for presentation. He'll know what to do.” David nipped sharply at Ethan's earlobe.
Ethan prayed his knees would hold out.
