I roll my eyes and send off pics to Alaric. Then I turn to Ezra, grimacing at the blood splatter on his sweatpants.
Fuck. How is he feeling about all of this? Overwhelmed? Panicked? Frightened?
How am I so fucking turned on by the fact that everyone recognizes him asmine?
Iwantto claim him. More than I want to protect him from myself.
Closing the distance between us, I snake my hands around Ezra’s waist and back him out of the room.
“Do what you want with the other one, but keep him alive for now,” I tell Rev, kicking the door closed behind us as chaotic laughter ensues.
Shoving Ezra up against the hallway wall, I cage him in with my body and search his expression for fear. Gazing up at me through those sinful dark lashes, he doesn’t appear shocked or disturbed by what he just witnessed. Quite the opposite, actually.
His pupils blow wide as his tongue flicks out to play with that sexy lip ring I’ve imagined sliding along my cock too many times.
“What are you doing?” he asks breathlessly.
I lower my mouth to his neck, running my lips over his warm, soft skin to make him shiver. I nip at his earlobe.
“Beautiful boy, I’m going to take you home and devour you.”
CHAPTER TWENTY
EZRA
Cain mauls me as soon as we enter his apartment. His kisses are deep and hungry, his hands grabbing at my clothes to rip them off. I’m naked by the time the backs of my knees bump against the edge of his bed.
He pushes at my chest to drop me on my ass as he comes to stand between my spread legs. I fight the urge to cover my erection, even though he’s touched me there already.
Thankfully, my workouts and proper meals have helped put more mass on my bones. At least I don’t have to be self-conscious about that anymore.
Cain’s dark eyes glisten down at me with lust. “Don’t fucking move, Ezra. Touch yourself if you need to, but you’re not allowed to come until I’m out of the shower, got it? I’m not playing with you when I have some shitbag’s blood on my hands.”
Swallowing, I nod, already reaching to take my cock in hand. He watches me stroke myself a couple of times, letting out a low, predatory growl.
He disappears into the bathroom, and the thrum of anticipation has me clambering to my feet to give chase. I want to be good for him, I do. But sometimes the urge to misbehave wins out.
I suck in a breath at the vision of Cain standing naked under the rainfall shower, dark hair slicked back and perfect, round ass on display. When he turns toward me, head tipped back and eyes closed, I watch the water run down his sculpted body, over the hills of his pecs, slithering down his eight pack. Down to his massive, half-hard cock.
Good god.I bite down on my bottom lip, a hand still gripped around my dick.
I’m able to slip into the shower without alerting him of my presence until the glass door snaps closed behind me. Cain’s brown and gold-flecked eyes, tinged with anger, land on me. He spins me around, forcing my front against the cold tiles. One hand pins both of my wrists above my head. The other grips my hip.
“What do you think you’re doing?” His low voice against the shell of my ear sends a shiver through me. Pretty sure my dick’s already leaking.
“Begging,” I admit, squirming in his hold. “I’m not scared of you, Cain.”
He pushes his hard body against mine, the hand on my hip sliding up to grip my jaw and tip my head to the side. “You should be.”
He sinks his teeth into my neck, and I cry out in painful pleasure. I rock my hips back, eager for more, but he moves his cock just out of reach.
Cain runs his hot tongue along my neck. He licks and nips and sucks his way down my body, letting the hand pinning my wrists trail the samepath as he lowers to his knees. Biting down on my ass, he slaps my other cheek, and I gasp.
“Turn around, Ezra,” he orders.
All too eager, I spin for him. In awe, I stare down at the beautiful, powerful man on his knees for me. He nuzzles against my shaft, pressing kisses to my hips and thighs. Everywhere but where I need him most.
I groan in frustration, my hand gripping his dark, wet locks. I curl them tighter as he continues to tease me, sucking and licking at my cock, but still not taking me into his mouth.
