"I told you to keep things where they are easy to reach."
Guy looked over his shoulder with laughing blue eyes. "You didn't say the penalty was a butt bite."
Jacob shrugged. "Penalties have to be paid."
"Uh, huh." Guy didn't sound convinced, but he did retrieve the condom and lube. "Do you want to be on your back or hands and knees?"
Jacob rolled over. It wasn't that he didn't want to see his lover, but he knew Guy could get a better angle in this direction.
The feel of wet lube being pushed into his hole had him shoving back against the invasion. He could feel Guy spreading him with his thick fingers.
"More," he moaned.
"Easy," Guy said, kissing Jacob's shoulder. "We'll get there."
"Get there faster."
A soft chuckle was his response.
Jacob let out a groan. Guy wouldn't be hurried.
Just as he was about to flip around and tackle his lover, Guy slid inside, causing Jacob to moan. "Yes."
"You feel so amazing," Guy whispered, sliding in and out with excruciating slowness.
"Yes, right there." Jacob shifted so Guy's cock hit his prostate over and over. Wrapping his hand around his own length, he was shocked when Guy smacked him on the ass. "What!"
"That's mine," Guy growled.
"You can play with it later. Fuck me."
Laughter was his lover's response as Guy pounded into him. Jacob desperately pumped his shaft, seeking relief. Before long, the scent of spunk and the sounds of groans filled the air.
The men collapsed on to the bed together.
"I'm never leaving your ass," Guy murmured against Jacob's shoulder.
"It might be hard to find pants that fit."
Guy's laughter, while still deep inside him, made Jacob tingle. Before he could get used to the sensation, his lover pulled out. "I'll be right back."
Jacob watched while Guy headed for the bathroom.
"I thought he'd never leave," said a voice.
Jacob yelped as a man appeared by the foot of his bed. Quickly covering himself, Jacob glared at the intruder.
"You really should start keeping something by the bed to clean up with," the man said.
He was about to ask who the man was, but the words died in his chest. The man, or whatever he was, looked just like Jacob.
"Hello, son."
The words shook Jacob. He'd never thought he'd have any man call him son.
"Um, hello."
"Sorry to interrupt like this, but I just learned about you." He gave Jacob a wry smile. "I guess there won't be any grandkids, huh?"
Jacob shrugged. "I wouldn't completely rule it out. If I'm going to live as long as Guy says, I have plenty of time to find a surrogate. What's your name anyway?"
"Oh sorry. I'm Denius, and as I'm sure you've noticed the resemblance, I'm also your father. I didn't know you existed until a friend showed me this magazine and asked when I'd posed." Denius held up a copy of the latest fashion magazine with Jacob on the cover. "You are really stunning."
Jacob laughed. "You should know." It twisted the knife in his chest to learn his mother had been right. His father had come back when he learned about Jacob.
Denius smiled. "Yes, I should. I'll leave you now. I know this isn't the best time. Maybe we could get together next week for dinner? You can bring your mate. I wasn't there for you as a child, but I'd love to be there for you as a man."
"I'd like that too."
Jacob didn't miss the longing in Denius's expression. He'd withhold his opinion of the man until he got to know him better, but it would be nice to see if they could at least be friends.
Denius's eyes glowed for a moment. "I programmed my number into your phone. Call me next week when you have time."
"I will." Jacob really meant that too. The man appeared sincere, but time would tell. He didn't bother telling his newly-found father about his mother. They needed to get to know each other before he unloaded the anger he had over his father's abandonment.
Before he could say anything else, Denius vanished. Guy walked back in. "That was weird. The bathroom door wouldn't open."
Jacob laughed. "It was probably my father." He went on to tell Guy all about his father's visit.
Guy smiled. "I'm glad he contacted you." He lost his carefree expression a moment later. "I wouldn't tell your mother about that just yet. She has some healing to do first."
Jacob shook his head. "I'm not planning on telling her." The Council had recommended incarceration and therapy for his mother, with visitation by Jacob at least once a month. They believed he could help ground her, but only time would tell.
Epilogue
Jacob couldn't believe it when the helicopter touched down behind William's house. Who kept a helipad in their backyard? Jacob laughed at himself. Who was he to criticize? After all, he was arriving at a wedding in a helicopter. Shaking his head, Jacob stepped out of the helicopter and into the arms of William Stamson.
"I'm so glad you're here. You need to convince Cash to wear the tuxedo I picked for him."
Jacob released William. "If you can't win him over with your persuasive techniques, I don't think I have any hope."
"What do you know about his persuasive techniques?" a deep voice asked.
Jacob looked up to see a dark-haired man with black eyes regarding him with suspicion.
"You must be Cash." Remembering the tips his father had given him over dinner the other night, Jacob flashed him his best smile. "I'm so pleased to meet you."
Cash took Jacob's hand, his pupils dilating. Damn, maybe he'd overdone the whammy a bit.
"I hear you're going to look amazing in your new tuxedo." With a wink to Will, Jacob turned Cash around and headed him back towards the house, still talking about how great he'd look if he wore the outfit Will picked for him.
* * * *
"He's really improved," Will said, watching the interaction with wide eyes.
Guy laughed. "Yeah, the only person it doesn't appear to work on is me."
"Are you sure?" Will said, quirking a brow. "Maybe it doesn't work because you already give him everything he wants."
"Maybe." A burst of pride made Guy walk taller. "He's the most amazing person."
"Yeah, did he ever tell you how we met?" Will started walking back towards the house, and Guy unconsciously followed.
"He said you bought a bunch of clothes at a charity walk."
"Yeah, did he mention he didn't get paid for the event, and afterwards, he anonymously gave them several thousand dollars?"
"No," Guy mused, watching Jacob lead Cash back to his own house.
"Jacob is more than just a pretty face. Remember that." Will's tone had Guy ripping his gaze away from Jacob's ass to face Will.
"Is that a threat?" he asked in amusement. "Because if it is, you have to stand in line. His cousin, David, threatened to infiltrate my computer system and set flags for the IRS, his manager Mandy threatened to break my kneecaps, and his father told me he knew how to make someone disappear. I don't think I'm worried about one more threat."
Will laughed. "Maybe not, but consider me on the Jacob Protection Team. If anything happens to him, I have a vortex with your name on it." Despite his teasing tone, Will's eyes told the true story. Hurt his friend and suffer the consequences.
"Huh." Guy looked at the smaller man. "Somehow I think I find you the scariest."
Will's smile wasn't the least bit reassuring. "Then you are a very smart man. Now that you've had the requisite threat, tell me the details. How did you two meet?"
Guy rubbed his forehead. "To tell the truth, it's a wonder we haven't met before. I mean, you are a friend of Jacob's. Milo roomed with Jacob while I invested in his business, and Jacob's cousin works for my company."
"There is a reason you're called fated mates, Guy. Fate meant for you to get together; it just took a while before you were both ready. Now that you found him, what do you think?"
"I think I'm a very lucky bastard," Guy said with a
satisfied grin.
They reached the house, and Cash turned to William. "I really like that tuxedo you picked out for me."
Will flashed Jacob a grateful smile. "I know, honey. Why don't you go try it on?"
Cash left to try on his outfit, and Will quickly followed.
"Aren't you the least bit ashamed of yourself?" Guy said, frowning at his mate.
Jacob smiled. "Nope. I didn't persuade him a bit."
"What do you mean?"
"As we were heading to the house, he told me to save my magic. Cash was only fighting wearing the tux because he wanted to give William something to focus on and not freak out about getting married."
Guy threw back his head and laughed. "They are the perfect couple."
Jacob wrapped his arms around Guy. "No, we're the perfect couple, but we'll let them be second place."
Guy smiled and kissed his mate, letting him know without words how happy he was to finally have found his perfect mate.

Literary Nymphs Reviews gives Jaynell's Wolf 5 Nymphs!
Jaynell Marley arrives at Mayell Wizard Academy to complete his training. Jay had already had years of advanced private tutoring, therefore his school enrollment is more to honor his father's wishes. Joining his new dorm roommates for pizza, Jay literally bumps into werekin Thomas Sparks. A sniff at Jay's neck has Thomas proclaiming that Jay is his mate.
Jaynell's Wolf is the first book in the Wizard's Touch series. The plot is well written plus vastly entertaining. The main characters are impressive, along with amusing secondary characters. Jaynell is a powerful wizard who wonders why his father insisted that Jay attend a school when it is clear Jay surpasses everyone in magical skills. However, Jay has an unpretentious personality. Thomas is a considerate protector, as long as others keep a respectful distance from Jay. The secondary characters include Gnomes, dragons, half elf, wolf pack in addition to a variety of wizards in training. I thoroughly enjoyed Jaynell's Wolf. Amber Kell has created a fantastic flight of the imagination that is laugh-out-loud hilarious, interwoven with heartwarming moments as well as rousing scenes of intimate passion. I look forward to the next addition to the Wizard's Touch series.
