Jude crossed the distance between them and pushed Hayden into the wall. He gripped him at the nape of his neck and crushed their lips together. Hayden responded immediately, grabbing Jude’s ass in both hands and pulling them flush together. Sliding both hands into Hayden’s hair, Jude opened his mouth and slid inside Hayden’s warm one. Soft moans escaped them both as they kissed frantically. Jude’s shirt was torn from his back and he growled into Hayden’s mouth. Hayden pulled Jude’s ass up further and he wrapped his legs around Hayden’s hips.
A strong hand slid up his spine and into his hair, and Jude rotated his hips against Hayden’s stomach. They nipped at each other, licking and sucking lips and tongues.
Hayden staggered over to the bed and eased himself down. Jude tightened his grip as they sprawled out on the blanket. Hayden flipped them and Jude gasped as his hands were put above his head.
Hayden’s features changed. His eyes softened.
“Shit,” Hayden whispered. “I’m sorry, you don’t trust me.”
Jude kept his hands above his head and raised his head to meet with Hayden’s lips. They kissed softly and Jude pulled away slowly.
“Let’s start changing that right here,” Jude whispered.
Hayden nodded, placing his hands over Jude’s again.
“Don’t move them,” Hayden warned against Jude’s lips.
Jude nodded — eyes wide at the commanding voice Hayden had just used. Fuck, that was sexy.
Hayden licked down his bicep and nuzzled his armpit. Jude’s back arched as Hayden’s tongue trailed down his neck to his erect nipple. He threaded his fingers together, grabbing the blanket to keep from moving his hands. Hayden licked his nipple, circling it and biting down enough to cause a hint of pain. Hayden pulled his pants off along with his boxers in one fluid movement, nibbling at Jude’s other nipple.
Jude gasped at the pain; his dick hardened and bobbed up and down on his abs. Hayden trailed lower, leaving soft kisses and licks across the planes of his stomach. Stubble grazed his cock and Jude’s fingers tightened on the blanket again. Jude raised his head; Hayden rubbed his chin on the sensitive head of his prick.
Their eyes locked and Hayden swiped his slit with his tongue. Jude almost came up off the blanket. He moved one hand towards Hayden’s head.
“Don’t move your hands,” Hayden ordered, gripping Jude’s cock in his hand.
The velvet skin slid through his fingers easily, precome making an excellent lubricant. Jude’s hand reluctantly went back above his head and Hayden took his cock in his mouth. A loud moan sounded in the cave as he sucked Jude’s prick, his tongue lavishing the sensitive rim. He ran his tongue along the underside, the throbbing vein vibrating his tongue. Hayden dipped lower, licking and sucking a testicle into his mouth. Jude babbled incoherently and Hayden smiled, nibbling back up and drawing the leaking head back into his mouth.
Hayden gripped his own erection, jerking as he bobbed on Jude’s cock. Jude thrashed about as Hayden took him deep, moaning around the sweet-tasting dick in his mouth. He rolled Jude’s balls in his other hand as he feasted on his prick and jacked off all at the same time.
Fuck but it was so damn good.
“Hayden…oh fuck, gonna come!!” Jude shouted a warning.
“Fuck yes!” Hayden deep-throated Jude to the root, pulling at his balls. Jude’s back arched impossibly high, and then a loud groan left his lips. A burst of sweet and salty hit his tongue and Hayden swallowed it down, moaning in appreciation.
Jude slumped back down on the blanket gasping for breath. His dick was still shooting bursts of cum as his orgasm ravaged his body. Hayden was sucking down his cock and jacking off. He groaned and then shuddered. Warm cum splashed Jude’s balls as Hayden came.
Jude threw an arm over his eyes and attempted to breathe normally. Hot skin glided up his stomach and he smiled as Hayden’s lips touched his softly.
“Wow,” Jude whispered with a chuckle.
“You moved your hand,” Hayden growled playfully, nipping at Jude’s lips.
“You were done,” Jude breathed.
“Was I?” Hayden’s finger’s slid beneath Jude’s balls and circled his hole.
Jude opened one eye. “You have lube?”
Hayden frowned.
“No lube, no sex.” Jude wagged a finger at Hayden.
“I’m okay with that.” Hayden bit Jude’s chin with a smile. “I can wait. I’ve waited this long.”
Jude’s stomach growled.
“Hungry?” Hayden chuckled, cleaning Jude off with his T-shirt.
“Yes, starving.” Jude laughed when Hayden rubbed his inner thigh.
“Ticklish?”
“No.” Jude kept his face stoic.
“Liar.” Hayden grabbed Jude’s boxers and pants and handed them to him. “I’m going to go finish dinner.”
Jude grabbed Hayden’s arm and pulled him back down. “I don’t want to be just friends.”
Hayden swallowed hard. “You don’t?”
Jude cupped Hayden’s face in his hands. “No. I don’t.”
“Does that mean…?”
“Let’s talk over dinner.”
Jude listened as Hayden told him all about his childhood after his family moved. His heart ached for the other man. Jude had lost his mother, but always had his father. Hayden had lost both.
“Did they come to you?” Jude asked quietly, referring to the recent visits from deceased loved ones that the fates had arranged for everyone.
Hayden nodded. “Yes, they did. Did your mom?”
Jude nodded as well. “Yes, she did.”
Hayden sat back and looked at the star-filled sky. “They told me they loved me and they were so proud of the man that I’d become,” Hayden sighed. “I didn’t know who I was back then. I was confused all the time. I had always liked girls, and then I saw you.”
Hayden looked over at Jude’s beautiful face.
“It threw me for a loop. I had all these feelings I didn’t know how to process and then I just got mad, at myself and at you. I thought maybe, somehow, you’d done something to attract me. I know how stupid that sounds, but I didn’t know what else to think. The more time I spent around you, the more attractive you became.”
Hayden ran his hands over his face. “I lashed out at you because I didn’t know any other way to deal with my growing feelings. Then we left, and I felt so empty inside. I didn’t know how to fill that void. Then, we were attacked. I was thrown into the safe room and I knew my parents were dead on the other side of the door. I shifted for the first time all alone. I had no idea what to do or if it was normal.”
“Oh God, Hayden. I’m so sorry,” Jude whispered. He took Hayden’s hand and held it. “I didn’t know. I should have done more back then. I didn’t know why you hated me, or how to make it better.”
“I never hated you, Jude.” Hayden ran his thumb across the top of Jude’s hand. “I just didn’t understand why I wanted you so much. Your dad was really good to me, even after what I’d done. He always treated me like his own. I’ll never forget the first time I got in trouble at school and he had to come down and talk to the headmaster. Your dad was the same height as me then, but my God he looked seven feet tall.” Hayden shook his head with a smile.
“What did you do?” Jude asked.
“I got into a fight with another kid. I don’t even remember why now, but your dad sat me down and told me that with my strength I’d have to walk away more often than I’d stand my ground. When Ross, Noah and I entered the military it was probably the best thing for me. I needed the discipline. I was so angry all the time and I had no outlet for it.”
Jude smiled and squeezed Hayden’s hand. “When my mom came to see me, she said she was proud of the man that I’d become, of the people I’ve helped. She also told me to remove my head from my ass and give you a chance.”
Hayden smiled. “So, that’s why you’ve been a little nicer?”
“Yes. I felt I owed it to her to fulfill her reques
t. It’s such a hardship,” Jude snickered.
Hayden turned to face Jude. “I’m so sorry, Jude. I wish I could take it all back.”
Jude shifted uncomfortably. “I thought you and Ross were together.” He narrowed his eyes. “In fact, I had some help in thinking that.” He was going to have a word with his brothers when he got home.
“There will never be anyone else for me but you Jude — you were always it for me.”
Jude opened his mouth then shut it. He put his hand up and tilted his head. “You hear that?” he whispered.
Hayden cocked his head to the side and listened. Sure enough, he could hear soft whistling from below the ridge. He motioned to Jude and they both crawled quietly over to the side. Hayden shifted his eyes and zoomed in below. The werewolf from earlier was by the plane wreckage with a bag in his hand. He set down the bag and opened it. He pulled a jug of water and what looked like a whole chicken out of the bag. He placed it on a piece of wreckage and looked around.
“What’s he doing?” Jude kept his eyes on the werewolf, Lev; after a few minutes, he got down on his hands and knees and started shifting.
“Remember when it took that long?” Hayden chuckled softly.
“Seems like so long ago.” Once Lev had fully shifted, he ran back towards the end of the enclosure.
“I think if the other werewolf is out there, he senses us. Maybe we should head in for the night?”
Jude nodded. “Yes, I think so.”
Hayden put the fire out and rolled a rock in front of their cave. It didn’t quite cover the opening, but it would alert him to anyone coming close. He turned to find Jude behind him, shirtless. Hayden forced his mouth to stay shut.
Shirtless Jude was breathtaking.
The top button on his jeans was undone and Hayden could see dark hair peeking up from the waistband of his underwear. He swallowed hard and licked his lips.
Jude’s torso was a thing of beauty. Muscular pectoral muscles twitched and smooth washboard abs flexed. Hayden let his eyes wander up. Jude’s face was one he’d never forget as long as he lived. He had a full, rose-colored bottom lip and a thinner — but just as tantalizing — top lip. His nose was thin and his high cheekbones accentuated a strong jaw and incredible eyes.
“Hayden?” Jude walked closer. His fingers played with the zipper on Hayden’s jacket, pulling it down slowly.
“Yes?”
Jude unzipped the jacket and pushed it off broad shoulders, uncovering a flannel long-sleeved shirt. Jude picked at the buttons one by one.
“Are you a top or a bottom?” Jude licked his lips as the shirt opened, revealing one hell of a broad chest. Hayden had tattoos of skulls along his rib cage, down to his hip. Jude’s hands splayed out across the hard planes of the chest. The skin was hot, and muscles rippled beneath his palm.
“Um, I’ve been both.” Hayden licked his lips.
Jude looked up and met with clear blue eyes. “I want you.”
“You…want me,” Hayden said slowly.
“Yes, I want you to take me on that bed.” Jude nodded to the bed in the corner.
“You want me to make love to you?”
Jude smiled. “Yes, Hayden.” He caressed Hayden’s cheek. Running his fingers to the nape of Hayden’s neck, he pulled him forward. Their lips met and Jude teased Hayden’s bottom lip with his tongue. “Do you want me?”
Hayden pulled Jude to him, slipping his hands around Jude’s waist. He took Jude’s mouth, his hands sliding down into his jeans. He gripped Jude’s ass in both hands and picked him up. They stumbled to the bed in the corner and Hayden eased Jude onto the sleeping bag. Jude’s fingers were working frantically on his jeans.
“Rip them off.” Hayden nipped at Jude’s lips.
The denim material ripped down the front as Jude’s claws tore through them. Hayden gasped as Jude’s hand grasped his dick. He threw his tattered jeans off to the side and spread Jude’s legs out.
“How long has it been?” he asked.
“A while,” Jude smiled sheepishly. “There’s lube in my jeans.”
“What?” Hayden steadied himself on one hand, looking down on Jude. “But you said — ”
“I asked if you had any,” Jude smiled wickedly.
Hayden took Jude’s lips with a growl and a gentle bite. “Tease.”
“You love it.” Jude arched his back, rubbing their hardened cocks against each other.
“Yeah.” Hayden caressed Jude’s cheek. “I do.”
“Roll over on your back,” Jude whispered against Hayden’s lips.
Hayden did as he was told. Jude grabbed his jeans and took the packet of lube out. He straddled Hayden backwards and handed him the lube.
“Slick me up, and then yourself.” Jude smiled as Hayden’s eyes widened. “Never done it this way before?”
Hayden let his eyes wander over Jude’s back and ass. He tentatively put a hand on Jude’s spine and let his fingers trail to the crest of Jude’s ass.
“Damn, you’re beautiful,” he said in awe.
Jude’s cheeks heated. “No, I’m not.”
“God, yes you are.”
Hayden grabbed the packet and slicked his fingers up. Jude leaned a bit forward, resting his hands on Hayden’s upper thighs, presenting his ass. Hayden ran one finger down Jude’s crack and circled the twitching hole. He slid a finger inside and Jude’s hole clamped down on him. A small hiss escaped Jude, and Hayden pulled his finger back out slowly. Jude wiggled on top of him and Hayden’s lips lifted in a small smile. He slid his finger back in and started a nice slow fuck.
Jude moaned softly, his hips following Hayden’s finger. Another finger slid in and Hayden watched Jude’s muscles spasm. He placed a hand on Jude’s hip, guiding him up and down as he slid in another finger. Jude’s back arched, he threw his head back and groaned in pleasure. Just watching Jude rocking back and forth on his fingers had Hayden’s cock leaking. He pulled his fingers out and Jude whimpered at the loss. Hayden slicked his cock a bit more and rubbed his cockhead against Jude’s waiting hole.
“Ready?” Hayden asked quietly.
“Mmm, just…God, Hayden,” Jude croaked, the emptiness in his ass making him itch for Hayden’s cock.
Hayden pushed the head of his dick in and Jude gasped above him. He gripped Jude’s hips and pushed in slowly. He’d never seen anything more beautiful in his life: Jude’s ass stretching to accommodate him, the pale skin under his hands, his dick sliding in and out of that beautiful ass. Hayden rubbed the top of Jude’s ass with his thumbs as his fingers gripped tightly at his hips. Jude moved with him, impaling himself over and over again on Hayden’s cock.
Hayden planted his feet on the blanket and thrust his hips again and again, spearing Jude’s ass and nailing his prostate. Jude cried out, his hands flew behind him so that he was half lying on top of Hayden.
Hayden pulled Jude’s back to his chest, and lifted his hips, adjusting the angle of his thrusts. Jude threw his hands behind his head and grabbed Hayden’s hair; their lips met and Hayden groaned into Jude’s mouth.
“Fuck, you feel good,” Hayden gasped, nipping at Jude’s lips and sucking his tongue.
Jude panted as Hayden hit him perfectly every time. He couldn’t think long enough to grab his cock; it felt so good he was about to scream out loud. His orgasm coiled in his spine, readying itself to explode at any moment.
“Hayden…” Jude moaned as Hayden hit him again.
The kiss became feral as Jude gripped Hayden’s hair tightly, crushing their mouths together. Jude lost his control and came almost screaming. Jets of ejaculate flew up his chest as he shuddered in Hayden’s arms, his orgasm rolling over and over through him. Hayden came with a long drawn out growl; his canines sunk into Jude’s shoulder and heat blasted in his ass. Jude bucked and flailed in Hayden’s arms as another orgasm tore through him. His fingers and toes tingled as Hayden’s bite traveled through him, spiraling out to his arms and legs. Warmth cascaded over his entire body as the connect
ion with Hayden came to fruition. Jude lay gasping on Hayden’s chest.
Strong arms came around him, holding him close.
“Are you all right?” Hayden nuzzled Jude’s ear.
Jude chuckled. “Oh yeah, I’m really, really good.”
Hayden closed his eyes and took a deep breath. “I’m sorry I bit you. I couldn’t stop myself.”
Jude rolled his head and looked into Hayden’s worried eyes. “Hey, it’s okay. I’m glad you did.”
“You are?” Hayden’s brows shot up. “But…I thought…”
“See, that’s your problem, Hayden,” Jude smiled. “Stop thinking so much.” He slid off of Hayden’s dick and rolled over to the other man’s side. He rested his head on his chest and closed his eyes.
Hayden grabbed his T-shirt and cleaned up Jude’s chest as best he could. He gently cleaned between his thighs and balls. Jude sighed in complete relaxation and Hayden grinned, kissing his forehead.
“Goodnight, Jude.”
“Night, Hayden.”
Hayden watched Jude sleep. Damn but the man was stunning. Long black lashes hid his beautiful violet eyes. As long as he lived, he’d never get the sight of Jude’s eyes out of his mind. Hayden kissed his cheek and ran fingers through his hair.
“I love you, Jude,” Hayden whispered, looking into the face of the man who had occupied his thoughts since he was in middle school. “You’ll never know how much.”
Hayden fell asleep a few hours later, the man he loved nestled into him.
~*Chapter Six*~
Jude woke up with soft breathing in his ear. Hayden’s body against him was like a furnace. He opened his eyes and stared at Hayden’s body. Holy hell. Why had he been fighting Hayden off all these years? His eyes travelled south and he got a nice, good look at Hayden’s dick. Jude licked his lips. The damn thing was a little more than eight inches at least and thick as fuck. It had felt twice that big last night.
Jude wiggled his ass. The pain was gone. Sometimes being a quick-healing werewolf sucked; he had been looking forward to feeling that burn all day.
