I still wasn’t sure I’d made the rightdecision, but he’d been so unwilling to even consider anything other than mybeing the submissive partner, I just hadn’t seen another way. Working onkeeping our friendship and letting everything else go had been the only thing Icould think of.
“I can see how that would be frustrating.”Keegan was still studying me and I could see the wheels in his head turning.“Did I hurt you?”
“No.” Shaking my head, I leaned over andgave him a quick peck on the cheek. “I’ll admit my first reaction wasn’texactly positive.”
Keegan chuckled, squeezing my hand as Icontinued. “But it was more about cursing the universe than being hurt orupset.”
Mostly.
“Are you going to ask me not to see himanymore?” His question radiated curiosity, not judgment, but I wasn’t sure Iwas reading him right.
“No.” I’d heard something in his voice thefirst time he’d talked about the polite Dom who’d stepped in to rescue him,even though Keegan maintained he hadn’t needed to be saved. Keegan was drawn tohim.
I wasn’t sure if it was the same way he wasdrawn to me or what Niall might represent, but I wasn’t going to be a dick thatsaid it was my way or the highway.
“I went into this knowing that you weregoing to meet other Doms and I can’t bitch now because you did what you saidyou were going to do.” But now what? “We’ll figure it out.”
Then something occurred to me.
“What did Niall say when you told him aboutme?” Having another Dom in his life wouldn’t have been something Keeganwould’ve left out. It just wasn’t how his mind worked. “I can’t believe he wouldn’thave mentioned knowing me.”
Keegan blinked and that cute faraway looktook over his face again. When he finally came back to the present, heshrugged. “I’m not sure I told him your name. I told him about a Dom I’d metrecently, and I was honest about what my limits were. He agreed with those andwe talked. Was he there when we met? I remember you mentioned you’d been withfriends.”
I thought back to our first meeting. “Yes,but maybe he wasn’t paying attention?”
Keegan was clearly trying to sort througheverything, but the thoughtful expression on his face made me want to pull himcloser so I could do wicked things to him. “I was doing my best to look veryboring last night. No hat. No coat. I was very plain because honestly, I wastrying not to attract attention but that didn’t really work. Even Mother said Ilooked boring. Maybe that was it?”
I could only imagine what she would’ve said.
“You would look sexy in a paper bag, scamp.You could never blend in no matter how you were dressed.” Going back to strokinghis thigh, I smiled wickedly when the heat came back into his eyes. “Yousparkle, my boy, and I wouldn’t change a thing about you.”
He was turned on, but I could see his brainstill trying to thread his worries together. “But would you change…Niall,and…Julian, that’s my…”
His quiet moan cut off the scandalized tonein his voice. He might have been shocked that I was teasing the head of hiscock in the restaurant, but that didn’t seem to mean he wanted me to stop. “Iwouldn’t change a thing. No qualifications, scamp.”
Keeping his body humming with pleasure andwicked fantasies gave me a moment to think. I meant that. I couldn’t imaginebeing this pulled to him if he were different. But what did that mean for Nialland for us in general?
There seemed to be just one option.
Tightening my grip, I slowly jerked him offthrough his clothes until his brains were wonderfully scrambled and all hecould focus on was staying quiet. When he was completely mine and there wasn’ta single worry left in his eyes, I went back to teasing just the head of hiscock.
“We are going to have a relaxing dinner andthen I’m going to take you back to my place where I can spank you and make youcome.” The way his body shivered said he was on board with that plan. “Tomorrowyou’re going to call Niall and explain who I am and that you want to see usboth. Then he and I will figure out how that’s going to look.”
Having the decisions taken out of his handsseemed to lift a weight off him. His entire body seemed lighter and there was aspark of happiness that hadn’t been there before. “Thank you, Sir.”
“You’re welcome, scamp.” I just hoped Icould give him everything he wanted and not leave him wondering what could’vebeen…like me.

“I was very good,Sir.” Keegan looked beautifully innocent as he curled into my chest and staredup at me, but the way he was squirming and rubbing his erection against minesaid his mind was filled with wicked fantasies and dreams. “I didn’t come whenyou were touching me at the table and I drove here carefully without touchingmyself. I didn’t even try to jerk off at the stoplights, Sir.”
That image was enough to have precumleaking into my boxer briefs.
“I bet you thought about it, though.”Stroking my hands down his back, I leaned down and kissed his neck, nibbling onthe tender column. “You were probably imagining how quickly you could come andhow good it would feel to free your cock.”
Keegan made a needy sound, nodding andrubbing even harder against me. “Yes, Sir. I was picturing jerking off foryou.”
Oh yes, we were going to have to play withthat fantasy very soon.
