11. Donovan

‘I've never flown in a private jet before,' Donovan said, looking around the cabin. ‘I mean, I've done it with my teams when we play on the road. But not on an airplane this small or fancy. This is seriously luxurious…'

Donovan wasn't exaggerating.

This was the Doni private jet, or at least one of them, and it was every bit as luxurious as he'd imagined. From the super-comfortable reclining seats that came with inbuilt massage options to the various entertainment options on offer, it was like being in a flying apartment.

And all this was without mentioning the food, drink, and candy on offer. Clearly Danilo had made sure that the flight options would suit both Donovan and Taine. With some cigars and beer for Taine and a range of the most colorful candies and juice boxes for Donovan, it was like being at a party – except one that was taking place at fifteen-thousand feet.

‘These burgers are great,' Donovan said, taking a huge bite from his fully loaded burger. ‘I guess that's one thing they knew we'd both have in common.'

‘Damn right,' Taine replied, eying up his burger before taking an equally large bite.

Donovan felt at ease with Taine when it came to food. Often Donovan would feel a little self-conscious around people who knew he was a Little. After all, it wasn't every day that Littles would eat so much as he did. But with Taine it was different. Taine was a former athlete himself and knew all about what it took to fuel a large frame and calorie-hungry lifestyle.

In fact, Donovan was beginning to realize just how at ease he could feel with Taine. Sure, there was the undeniable age gap between them. There was nothing that could be done about the eleven years between them. But that didn't even remotely feel like a big deal to Donovan.

And having initially felt a whole heap of resistance toward even working with him, Donovan was now seeing that not only could him and Taine have a professional relationship at the academy, but there could be a real personal connection too.

‘So, tell me,' Taine asked, finishing off his burger impressively quickly. ‘Why the Ice Bears? The Doni family billions aside, that is.'

Donovan laughed.

It certainly was true that the Doni family offered great contracts. But his move to the Ice Bears had always been about more than that.

‘The money's good, I'm not denying that,' Donovan replied, sipping on his pineapple and mango juice box. ‘But… it's way deeper. Firstly, I wanted to come and challenge myself at the most successful team. I was captain at my last team, and I loved it. But we were pretty much always second best to the Ice Bears. The Bears are like the pinnacle, you know?'

Taine nodded.

‘I get that,' Taine replied, seemingly considering two things at once. ‘I know all about wanting to hit that mountain top in sport. It's tough. You have to take your chances. Anyway. You said firstly, so I'm guessing there's another reason too.'

‘Yup,' Donovan said, a shy smile on his face. ‘There's the whole Daddy and Little thing. I knew from Joshua how things were at the Ice Bears. And it's never been easy for me, being a Little. I figured it might just be a better fit for me at a team who have such an open and welcoming attit-'

‘You mean you were hoping for a Jack Steel 2.0 to be your Daddy?' Taine said, chuckling.

‘Hey!' Donovan protested, his cheeks reddening instantaneously. ‘I mean… yeah, kind of. But please don't tell anyone that.'

‘Your secret's safe with me, boy,' Taine said, a wicked smile on his face.

‘Now it's my turn to ask you a question,' Donovan said, keen to swiftly change the subject and break the rapidly developing tension between them. ‘Please don't answer if it brings back too much bad stuff, but-'

‘Let me guess, the failed drug test,' Taine replied, seemingly knowing exactly what was on Donovan's mind.

Donovan nodded and cringed a little. Maybe this was too personal a question to have asked. Suddenly, he was regretting even thinking about asking it, let alone actually attempting to.

‘Relax,' Taine said, leaning over and patting Donovan on his thigh. ‘It's fine. Fuck, it would probably be a good idea to talk about it. Title fight. My big moment. I'm heavy favorite to win. My rival's promoter wanted to sign me up, but I preferred to stay a free agent. I guess I pissed off the wrong person, and one drug set-up later and I'm looking at a four year ban.'

‘That's awful,' Donovan said, feeling a real sense of empathy for Taine. ‘I always thought the drug thing was fake. I used to watch your fights. You were kind of… my favorite.'

‘Flattery will get you everywhere, boy,' Taine chuckled. ‘Yeah, well, I tried to come back after my ban expired. But the truth was that I hadn't been living right in the intervening years. Too much booze, boys, and whatever else I could get my hands on. Sponsors wouldn't touch me, and that asshole promoter was even more powerful in the sport than before the ban. I was fucked.'

Donovan could see that letting go and opening up about his past was a cathartic moment for Taine.

‘You can keep talking about it if you want,' Donovan said. ‘It's good to talk.'

‘I know, I know,' Taine replied. ‘And I guess that's why I never do. This was a good start. But it's not every day I'm in a private jet that has a Nintendo. How do you fancy getting that big butt of yours kicked on Mario Kart?'

‘Hey! I don't think so!' Donovan protested, the thought of gaming with Taine making him giddy with excitement. ‘You might just regret taking me on. So don't say I didn't warn you. I don't take any prisoners when it comes to games.'

‘Me neither, boy,' Taine replied. ‘Me neither.'

The tension between them was back again. But fortunately there was the outlet of whizzing their karts around a delightfully colored racetrack – and had they not had game controllers in their hands, there was every possibility their hands would have been all over one another.

It was time to enjoy the rest of the flight.

But Taine knew that when they arrived at the hotel, it might just be a whole other thing…

The flight was fun, but as soon as they landed Donovan noticed a change in Taine. The jokes and laughter from the flight were replaced by a harder edge and barely a smile.

‘Is everything okay?' Donovan asked as the pair of them walked down the hotel corridor toward their rooms. ‘I haven't done anything to piss you off, right?'

‘Nah, I'm good,' Taine replied. ‘Seriously. It's just… anything to do with the Doni family needs to be taken seriously. For all we know, this so-called rival family knows we're coming. There's no way of knowing, especially seeing as…'

Donovan waited for Taine to say more, but instead Taine changed the subject far too quickly for any further enquiry.

‘Come on, we'll scope out your room first and make sure everything's in order,' Taine said, taking the two keycards out of his pocket and handing one to Donovan.

‘Are we… in danger?' Donovan asked, nervously fiddling with his keycard.

‘Like I said, we're on Doni Time,' Taine muttered, a little hint of impatience in his voice. ‘I'm not saying we can't relax. In fact, we need to look like we're relaxed so we don't draw any unwanted attention. But what we can't do is let our guard down. No way. This is real.'

‘Got it,' Donovan said, his heart beating as the keycard finally activated and unlocked the door.

Donovan didn't have too much time to consider things any further as he stepped into the room. It was nice, just as he expected it to be given that this was a trip funded by Danilo Doni.

‘Bed… check. TV… check,' Donovan said. ‘Shower looks big… check.'

‘Big enough for two?' Taine replied, shutting the door behind him.

‘I… think so,' Donovan said, his heart racing as he made eye contact with Taine.

Before Donovan knew it, the two of them were in one another's arms and then kissing. The feeling of Taine's rough stubble up against his was sensational, and it soon became clear that fighting and spanking weren't Taine's only skills.

As their tongues overlapped in one another's mouths, Donovan felt his entire body reacting to Taine's every touch. There was something about the connection that Donovan felt with Taine that he'd never come close to feeling with anyone else – and Donovan knew what it was too.

‘Daddy…' Donovan said, pulling away from Taine for a moment. ‘I want you to take me. Here and now. Strip me. Stretch and fill me. Fuck me hard.'

Donovan's heart was thumping and his eyes were wild with desire.

And judging by the look on Taine's hungry face, he wanted to do all kinds of things to Donovan too.

‘On the bed,' Taine growled, removing his t-shirt and then his pants. ‘Strip for Daddy.'

Donovan didn't need asking twice.

Before he could even gather his breath, Donovan was naked on the bed and waiting for his Daddy to pounce on him.

Taine jumped up onto the bed in nothing but his black boxer-briefs and immediately pinned Donovan down onto the perfectly soft duvet.

‘Try and wriggle out of this hold if you can,' Taine said, a wicked smile on his face as he wrapped his legs around Donovan's midsection and tumbled him onto his side. ‘If you can get out, I'll suck your cock and eat your ass all night. How about that for some motivation?'

Donovan grunted his approval and immediately tried to wrestle and wriggle his way out of Taine's leg-lock. But it felt like the more that Donovan struggled, the less likely it was that he was going to be able to break out.

‘This isn't fair,' Donovan hollered, the feeling of powerlessness frustrating him and turning him on in equal measure.

‘Give up?' Taine laughed, grinding his hard cock into the base of Donovan's back over and over as he continued to squeeze his powerful thighs around Donovan's midriff. ‘Tap out and you'll be eating my ass in ten seconds flat.'

‘Not gonna happen,' Donovan protested, using his free arm to try to unhook Taine's grip around his chest. ‘N-n-n-n-not gonna… happen.'

Suddenly, Donovan felt Taine's hold on him weaken and in one swift move, Donovan managed to break free from Taine.

‘I've done it! I've done it!' Donovan proclaimed, his hard cock bouncing up and down as he jiggled and celebrated on his knees. ‘Time for you to get that tongue ready, Daddy!'

Donovan felt elated. He hadn't been expecting to be able to break Taine's grip but had just about managed it. Or so he thought.

‘Not so fast, boy,' Taine replied. ‘Have a look down at your ankle.'

Donovan looked down and saw Taine's hand was still loosely around his ankle.

‘No, no way,' Donovan said, a look of dismay on his face. ‘You kept that on the whole time?'

‘Sure did,' Taine said. ‘I let you loose so you could lower your guard. The whole time I had control of your ankle. Tough lesson kid. But you know what… I'm going to reward you anyway.'

Donovan didn't have time to say anything before Taine sprung on him and flipped him onto his front. The feeling of the silky-soft duvet underneath his naked body was great, but it was nothing compared to the feeling of Donovan pushing his legs open and then sliding up toward his ass.

‘Mmmph,' Donovan moaned, the feeling of Taine parting his cheeks and then flicking his tongue over his little ass hole sending him to heaven. ‘That's too good.'

Donovan heard Taine's muffled reply and then moaned again as his Daddy expertly worked his tongue around and inside his ass, sending shockwaves of pleasure all over him.

Soon enough, Donovan was on all fours and Taine continued to lick him while also reaching underneath and working his cock with one hand. Donovan was beginning to rock back and forth to increase the stimulation on both his ass and his dick, and he knew that he almost certainly couldn't hold on for too long.

‘Let it happen,' Taine said, temporarily removing his handsome face from Donovan's sensitive, stimulated butt. ‘Cum for Daddy.'

Even hearing Taine say the words was enough to push Donovan closer to the edge. And it was barely a minute later that Donovan shot wave after wave of his seed onto the duvet.

As his legs trembled and his body bucked, Donovan let out a long, guttural moan of pure satisfaction before letting himself collapse onto the bed.

‘Daddy… that was… something else,' Donovan said, breathless and already feeling the incoming post-orgasm drowsiness.

‘Hell yeah,' Taine replied, lying down next to Donovan. ‘And when we wake up from our nap, you can return the favor.'

‘Yes, Daddy,' Donovan replied, smiling and giggling at the thought of what he would be doing to Donovan in a short while.

However before Donovan could plan out too much about what he was going to be getting up to with Taine, he felt his droopy eyelids shut and he fell asleep in his Daddy's arms.

If the line in their relationship had been crossed with the first and then second spanking, it had long since disappeared into the distance after what had just happened.

But with another two nights in town, there was still the potential for things to go much, much further indeed…
