  Chapter Thirty-Three

  After all the years in law enforcement, Glenn thought he should have been better at waiting, but it still sucked ass. He checked his watch again. James should be done with his appointment by now. Glenn slumped and tapped his fingers on the bar of the almost-deserted club then straightened when he heard footsteps coming from the hallway. He slid off the stool then promptly sat back down, not wanting to appear too eager or worried. James had been nervous leaving the property, and Glenn just wasn’t sure what to expect now.

  James came out into the club and shot Glenn shy smile. Glenn stood and walked over to meet him between the bar and the hall entrance. “How’d it go?” he asked softly, watching as James’ cheeks darkened. What is that all about?

  “Fine, it was good,” James answered as he took Glenn’s hand and started walking them towards the exit. “She thinks my parents might come around, and she even offered to talk to them. I told her I’d think about it.”

  “Good, that’s good.” But why was James still blushing? Glenn studied him from the corner of his eye as more footsteps behind them announced the arrival of Chase and Xavier.

  Glenn and James stopped and turned around to watch their friends approach.

  “Y’all heading out?” Xavier asked as he and Chase stopped.

  “Yeah, we’re, ah, going…”

  Glenn shot James a questioning look, but his lover kept his gaze on the floor. Chase whispered something in Xavier’s ear that made both men grin.

  “Okay, we’ll see you two later.” Chase was beaming now, and Glenn wondered what was up with that. He absolutely wasn’t going to ask. They said their goodbyes then Glenn and James left. Glenn couldn’t help but notice that James was jittery, fidgeting and distracted on the drive back to the apartment.

  “Is there something wrong?” he finally asked, tired of running possibilities through his mind. He knew James wasn’t going to dump him—James wasn’t fickle like that. But he couldn’t figure out what else could be causing the man to not even want to look at him.

  Until James did look at him. The lust burning in his eyes shot across and singed Glenn, setting his balls on fire with a matching need. “I want you to make love to me,” James said in a rough, raspy voice, and Glenn was damned glad he’d just pulled in and parked the car, otherwise he thought he might have had a wreck. He turned his head back to watch his shaking hands. When had that started?

  Pulling the keys out of the ignition, he tried to organise his scattered thoughts but there was no possible way he could. “Are you sure?” he blurted out, then his Goddamned thought process kicked in, straight to fear about his lack of experience topping a man. “We don’t have to—”

  “Glenn.”

  Glenn jerked his head up and nearly got whiplash craning his neck to look at James.

  “I’m sure,” James said, without a shadow of doubt in his voice or expression. “I’m ready.”

  Glenn dropped the keys on the floorboard, the jangling sound when they hit distracting him. He bent to pick them up and thumped his head on the steering wheel.

  “Damn it!”

  “Are you okay?” James must have unbuckled because he scooted across the seat and was at Glenn’s side, prodding at his head. “Do you not want to?”

  Glenn found the keys and carefully sat up, managing not to brain himself this time.

  He couldn’t quite look James in the eye, though. And the keys were still on the floorboard.

  He gulped and shook his head, then realised James might take that as a no.

  “I do, I want—want you every way I can have you,” he said as he dragged his gaze to James’. “I’m just nervous because I haven’t done it before, and I want it to be perfect for you.”

  James cupped his cheek and leaned the few inches necessary to brush his lips over Glenn’s. “For both of us, and it will be. I trust you, Glenn.” He kissed Glenn then, before he could respond, and Glenn’s cock started to harden despite his lingering fear. “Come on, let’s go inside,” James said when he’d all but melted Glenn’s brain. Glenn nodded and started to reach for the keys again. “I’ll get them,” James told him.

  Glenn unbuckled the seatbelt and slid it off before getting out. He waited for James, then took his hand as they headed for the stairs. Glenn’s body was a riot of need and www.total-e-bound.com

  lessening fear with each step they took. He’d have thought he’d be more nervous the closer they got to the apartment, but his initial panic was ceding ground to the fact that he wouldn’t ever hurt James…and to the fact that James trusted him.

  James stopped him at the foot of the stairs and grinned in a way that made Glenn’s dick pulse. “I’ll go up first.” Then he started up the stairs and Glenn’s eyes zeroed in on James tight, denim encased butt, and Glenn’s heart about stopped in his chest.

  But his legs didn’t get the memo that the blood flow was shut off, because Glenn bounded up behind James, watching the flex of those taut globes the whole way. James’

  happy sounding laugh told him the man knew what he was doing to Glenn, and was comfortable enough to be enjoying it.

  “Like the view?” James asked right as he stepped onto the landing. He shot Glenn a smouldering look over his shoulder and Glenn tripped on the last step, just managing to catch himself by grabbing onto the handrails. James’ delighted laughter was tempered by the concern in his eyes as he reached for Glenn. “Sorry. Are you okay?”

  “About brain dead from lack of blood,” Glenn muttered, then he pulled James to him for a kiss that quickly went from nice to naughty as lips and teeth and tongues clashed.

  “Oh my God,” James panted when it was over, a dazed expression on his face. “Open the fucking door already!”

  Glenn took the keys from James, feeling steadier and more assured with each passing second. He unlocked the door then grunted as James tackled him from behind, nearly causing them both to trip and land on the floor. As it was, Glenn managed to slam the door shut and turn around, stumbling even so. He got a hand on James and pushed him against the door, promptly kissing him again as they both rubbed against each other.

  Glenn moaned, the sound mingling with James’ as he plunged his tongue deep into James’ mouth, wanting to devour the man. James grabbed his arms, curling his fingers and holding on tight. Glenn bit his top lip, then the bottom as he wedged a leg between James’, giving James something to rut against. It gave Glenn more friction too, as he ground against James’ hip.

  “Fuck,” James wailed as he jerked his head to the side. His body shook and he gasped, his hips rocking with rapid, jerky thrusts. “Glenn!”

  Glenn bit his own lip as James’ neck arched and wet heat seeped through to dampen his jeans. Don’t come don’t come don’t come don’t fucking come! Glenn chanted silently to himself as James shook through his climax. Glenn was so close, but he wanted to come inside James more than he wanted his next breath. That was the only thing that made it possible to keep his shit together, because he ached with the need for release.

  “Fuck,” James rasped as he stilled, his hands falling from Glenn’s arms. “Geez, I didn’t mean to do that.” His bashful glance filled Glenn with warm, soft feelings of love and devotion.

  Glenn kissed James’ swollen lips and eased away enough that he wasn’t as tempted to rub off. He realised James might not want to be fucked, not now that he came, and Glenn tried not to let his disappointment show in his expression. If that was the case, then he’d be fine with it. Whatever James wants. That’s what’s important.

  “We don’t have to do anything else,” Glenn told him, glad he didn’t sound disappointed. “I’m so close anyways�
�”

  James went from relaxed and pliant to tense and growly so quickly that Glenn snapped his mouth shut audibly. James slapped a hand to Glenn’s chest then found his nipple and pinched, and Glenn shook down to his toes.

  “If I didn’t know better, I’d think you didn’t want to fuck me.” He slid his hand down Glenn’s chest, over his stomach and further down still until he cupped Glenn’s cock. “Except you’re hard as a steel rod, and your pupils are blown.”

  Glenn wasn’t surprised, he was damn near incoherent with wanting James. It took him multiple times to even shove words up his dry throat. “Too much. I don’t think I am gonna last.”

  James’ lips twitched then stretched into a needy grin. “Oh, you’ll last all right.” He punctuated the statement with a squeeze just shy of too painful, and it helped Glenn gain a measure of self-control. “Now, take me to bed and fuck me stupid.”

  Chapter Thirty-Four

  James rubbed away the hurt before releasing Glenn’s dick. He stroked all the way back up to Glenn’s neck, then he gripped Glenn’s chin and nipped it. “You’re just gonna have to put plenty of effort into the foreplay so you can fuck me.” Glenn gulped and James leaned in to lick his lips. Then he took Glenn’s hand and led him to the bedroom. “Strip.”

  James released Glenn’s hand and they removed their clothes and shoes quickly. James took a minute to appreciate Glenn’s muscled body and the thick girth of his cock. He checked himself for any hint of fear and found only desire. Glenn looked hard as stone, his cock a deep rose colour and the tip wet with pre-cum.

  “Come here,” James murmured. He watched Glenn’s cock slap against his belly as he walked. James made himself move backwards, sitting down when his legs hit the bed. He held out a hand to Glenn, who took it then knelt between James’ spread legs.

  “Got to get you hard again.” Glenn took his softened cock in hand then, looking up at James, he sucked the whole length in his mouth.

  James gasped and cupped the back of Glenn’s head, not pushing, just touching. Glenn rumbled something around James’ dick, and James’ groaned, untangling his other hand to rest it on Glenn’s shoulder. When Glenn sucked, his cheeks hollowing out, James saw starbursts and his breath hitched.

  Glenn pushed James’ legs wider apart then cupped his balls. Need began building in James again, as much physical as emotional. He needed to do this with Glenn, needed to give himself, to be able to give himself to the man he loved.

  James lay back and closed his eyes, letting his hands drop to his sides. Glenn made a muffled sound, then he stopped sucking James. The bed dipped then wet heat enveloped James’ dick again. “Just like that,” he urged as Glenn swallowed him whole. “Yeah…”

  Glenn hummed and rolled his balls and James hitched one leg up. Glenn pulled off again and James opened his eyes to see why only to find Glenn crawling up beside him.

  “Move back a little, and over if you can.”

  James could, but barely. His body was clamouring for more as he moved, this time opening his legs wide and bending his knees. Glenn grinned at him then grabbed his dick.

  His smile evaporated as he gave James an intense look. “You’ll tell me if you need me to stop?”

  “Of course,” James assured him. He appreciated Glenn being careful, but if he didn’t get back to what he was doing, James thought he might just scream.

  Glenn looked like he might say something else, so James tipped his hips up in a silent plea. “I had to ask.”

  “I know.” James gasped as Glenn sucked him back in. He hooked an arm under one knee and pulled his leg up, offering himself to Glenn. Glenn’s growl of approval sent tingling sensations from James’ cock up to the top of his spine. Glenn teased at James’ slit until James was writhing and pleading, his free hand fisting in the sheets, then Glenn bobbed down, burying James’ cock deep. “God, I can’t—” James thrust, wedging his dick into Glenn’s throat. The tight constriction as Glenn swallowed nearly undid him.

  Glenn pressed James’ hips down then pulled off his dick only to bathe James’ sac with several rough licks.

  “Yes, yes fucking yes,” James chanted when something brushed over his hole. He was nearly mindless with need as he pulled his other leg up. Glenn slid his hands under James’

  butt and tipped his hips up. He parted James’ cheeks with his thumbs and licked over James’

  hole, a whisper of a touch. “Please!” James all but shouted, needing more than that tentative lick.

  Glenn answered him with a rumbling growl that James felt against his flesh. He opened his mouth to encourage Glenn or demand more, he didn’t know which, but only a strangled sound emerged as Glenn licked him again, swirling around James’ opening.

  James’ nails bit into his skin as Glenn rimmed him, exquisite pleasure flowing up from that little spot when Glenn’s tongue sank into him. James panted and thrashed his head, beyond words, sweat breaking out on his brow and running into his eyes. Rapid-fire thrusts in and out, then the press of something harder, thicker as Glenn slid a digit inside him.

  “Please, Glenn, fuck me,” James managed to put together when another finger speared into him. Glenn rubbed over his gland and sparks shot up to James’ chest, pinching his nipples into needy buds. James screamed when Glenn sucked on his balls, his body www.total-e-bound.com

  overloaded with sensations. He let go of his legs and set his heels to Glenn’s shoulders, using his abs to tip his butt up further. A third digit pressed into him and James’ heels banged against Glenn’s shoulders, tremors racking James’ body.

  Glenn pushed in to the second knuckle and rubbed James’ gland. James wailed and grabbed his cock, trying to hold back his climax. “Glenn,” he shouted, need making his voice harsh, “Now!”

  Glenn released James’ balls with a wet pop and eased his fingers out. “Okay, honey, let me get the lube.”

  James thought he’d combust before Glenn got them both slicked up. Glenn saturated almost his entire hand before resuming his attempt to stretch James’ ass. His balls drew up tight in seconds. James knew he wasn’t going to last much longer, and he wanted to feel Glenn’s cock in side him. “Hurry!”

  Glenn’s smile was tight as he shook his head. “I’m not just ramming this thing in there,” he said as he jostled his cock. He pulled his fingers out and applied more lube then pushed them back in. “Is this how you want it, on your back?”

  For the first time, dark memories tried to crash through James’ budding bliss. He shoved them down ruthlessly. He wasn’t ready to be on his hands and knees, or his stomach, and didn’t know if he’d ever be. But this, face to face, where he could see Glenn, see who was taking him—who he was giving himself to—yes, he was definitely ready for this.

  “Yes, Glenn, please, now—” James moaned as Glenn touched him deep inside. He clenched his muscles and squeezed his length, battering back his orgasm. Glenn murmured an apology, apparently not having meant to torment James by stimulating his gland. Then, finally, Glenn settled between his legs and dropped down over James, holding himself up on one arm while lining his cock up with his other hand.

  James looked into Glenn’s eyes, made dark by desire. “I love you,” Glenn said, then the tip of his cock pressed into James’ ass and James’ reply was swallowed by his sharply indrawn breath. Glenn frowned down at him, holding still, and James wound his legs around his lover and pulled.

  “More, shit, I don’t remember it ever feeling like this. Never this good.” He wanted Glenn to know that at least, before he lost his ability to speak.

  “Damn it, James, I’m not going to last,” Glenn said after a few seconds. “I want you so fucking bad, but I’m afraid I’m gonna blow it before I’m even half way in. You’re so tight, and hot, and the way your ass is milking just my tip, even…” Glen closed his eyes and gasped as he slowly began filling James.

  The sweet sensation of being stretched and penetrated with so much care made James’

  chest ache and his desire ramp higher. He pulled his legs, coaxed with whimpers and moans, and finally Glenn’s balls tapped his ass.

  James looked at the strain of Glenn’s face, the rigid control that had his lips thinned and eyes narrowed against the urge to thrust and fuck James into the mattress. But James wanted that, needed it because it was Glenn, the man who’d waited for him even if he hadn’t always known it. James clenched his ass and was rewarded with a moan from Glenn, then Glenn looked at him through lust-dazed eyes and slowly began lowering himself down until he could kiss James. When his lips brushed James’, Glenn began to withdraw his dick from James’ hole, only to spear back in steadily, his tongue mimicking the penetration in James’

  mouth.

  Yes! James gave an internal shout as he opened for Glenn, eager and hungry for everything he could have with this man. He grabbed Glenn’s shoulders and pulled him down, bearing the brunt of Glenn’s weight for a few seconds while Glenn plundered his mouth. Then Glenn pushed up onto his elbows and gave James a smile that sent a thrill up his spine.

  The first hard thrust set off multi-coloured explosions in James’ vision. He closed his eyes as he moaned and canted his hips for more. Glenn gave it to him, fucking James with increasingly more speed and force. James mewled and would have died from embarrassment had the sound not seemed to have fired Glenn on, grunts coming from him every time he slammed his cock home.

  James closed his eyes and arched his neck when the tip of Glenn’s cock rubbed over his gland. The feel of sharp teeth scraping over his Adam’s apple had James’ eyes shooting open, then Glenn sucked on that spot and James vibrated all the way to his tail bone. Glenn lowered his body enough to rub and grind against James’ dick, and James couldn’t hold back any longer.
