18. Taine

The Ice Bears stadium had been improved beyond recognition over the years. With the Doni money behind it, it was now the foremost stadium in the whole league and drew envious glances from visiting teams and fans alike.

Taine had fought in some glamorous and world famous stadiums over the years himself, but the Ice Bears stadium was the best of them all.

Typically, Taine preferred to be amongst the paying supporters, ideally close to the ice. But Jack had invited him to share his own VIP box for the game – and with the offer of top quality snacks and an unlimited supply of Bud Light on offer, Taine was in no mood to let that pass him by.

‘Let's go Ice Bears!' Taine bellowed at the top of his lungs as the Ice Bears began to impose themselves on the game.

With the crowd roaring and the players responding in kind by playing great hockey, it was clear to see that this was going to be a debut to remember for Donovan. And Taine couldn't have been any happier. Sitting up in the VIP box next to Jack, Taine was beginning to get a taste for the buzz of a big sporting occasion again.

Fuck. I miss this.

Swap the ice for an octagon, and that could be me again.

But…

Taine was still feeling conflicted about whether he should take Jack up on his offer of resuming his fight career under Jack's new fighter promotion operation. There hadn't been the time to brooch the subject with Donovan, and the last thing that Taine would have wanted would be to do anything that might have taken Donovan's mind off his debut.

But as he sat alongside Jack, Taine knew that Jack wouldn't wait forever for an answer. And if he listened to his gut instinct, Taine knew that he only really had one answer…

‘Jack,' Taine said, turning to the legendary Ice bear during a break in play. ‘I've been thinking…'

‘I was wondering when this might come up,' Jack replied, sipping from his bottle of Bud Light and handing Taine a fresh one. ‘Don't leave me hanging in suspense. Tell me.'

‘If you still think it can work, then I'm in,' Taine replied. ‘I need to run it by Donovan, but as far as I'm concerned, it's a yes. It's who I am. It's what I am. I might not be the fighter I was all those years ago, but a big part of me believes that I can still get to the top. Call me an egomaniac if you want, but I look at these current champions and I don't see anything that scares me. Well, not too much anyway. I'm fucking in, Jack.'

Taine could feel his heart thumping.

Saying all that out loud made it very real.

But rather than regretting what he'd just said, it only made Taine feel even more determined to follow through on it and give himself the final couple of years of his career that he had long given up hope of ever having.

‘Perfect,' Jack replied. ‘And for what it's worth, I believe in you too. I know a champion when I see one. Game recognizes game. Now let's go Ice Bears!'

With play resuming, Taine and Jack cheered on the team to a great victory. And Donovan played well too, showing all his famous power and pressure-plays that made him one of the most admired and feared players in the championship.

‘We'll meet early next week,' Jack said as he stood up along with Taine as the final buzzer sounded. ‘This is the beginning of something special.'

‘It might well be,' Taine replied, firmly embracing Jack. ‘But I've got some explaining to do with my boy… and it might just take a night of special fun to ease the blow.'

‘Hey, that sounds like a win-win,' Jack laughed.

And with that, the pair of them left the VIP box. Jack would be having his own fun with his boy Chase that night. And as for Taine and Donovan, Daddy Taine already had plenty of special treats in mind…

‘It's shower time,' Taine said, standing up from the couch in his apartment. ‘And I'm thinking we make it a nice, long, power-shower too.'

With the apartment lights dimmed and both Taine and Donovan feeling relaxed after the excitement of the game earlier that evening, Taine was feeling in the mood.

And judging by the smile on Donovan's face, he was too.

‘My muscles are sore though,' Donovan teased, pulling down his Ice Bears sweatpants to reveal his powerful quads. ‘I think I might need a healing rub.'

‘Be a good boy and you might just get one,' Taine replied. ‘And you can start by stripping off for Daddy right here. You can't tease me with those strong legs and then not go all the way.'

‘Yes, sir,' Donovan replied, eagerly removing his clothes and then standing before Donovan with his semi-erect cock already well on the way toward rising to full mast. ‘But what about you?'

‘Daddy gives the orders around here, boy,' Taine growled. ‘And for that sass, you can get on all fours and crawl that big booty to the bathroom. I've got a big surprise for you in there, and its very fitting if you arrive on all fours with your butt on display.'

Taine could see the anticipation build in Donovan's eyes.

And it was a real visual delight to see his big boy get down onto all fours too. There was something incredibly hot about seeing such a strong individual make themselves so submissive. Taine knew that Donovan would only ever allow himself to be so submissive for him, and it was a huge turn on.

‘Now wiggle that butt into the bathroom,' Taine said. ‘Show your Daddy what you're working with.'

Taine watched on as he removed his clothes.

The sight of a naked Donovan slowly but surely making his way on all fours toward the bathroom was something to behold.

Donovan had a big, strong body that was packed with muscle. And with his balls hanging and his hard cock swinging from side to side, he looked like the kind of submissive boy that Taine could only have ever imagined in his wildest dreams.

And as Donovan and then Taine entered the bathroom, Taine was more than happy to see the look of shock and delight on Donovan's face…

‘Daddy, is that for me?' Donovan said, looking up at the suction cup dildo that was firmly in place on the inner shower wall. ‘It's so… big… and thick.'

‘And you'll be sitting that butt on it as you suck Daddy's cock,' Taine growled, his hands squeezing and pumping on his own dick. ‘You're going to fuck yourself while you swallow and suck me. I take it you have no objections, boy?'

Taine watched as Donovan crawled into the shower and got up on both feet.

As he stepped inside to join Donovan, Taine turned the shower on and felt the first powerful jet of hot water come crashing down on the pair of them.

It didn't get much hotter than this as far as Taine was concerned, and judging by the look of pure hunger in Donovan's eyes, the boy was of the same mind as him.

‘Turn around and let me get that tight little ass ready,' Taine commanded, reaching down and picking up a bottle of lube that he had left in the shower in anticipation of the evening's events. ‘Spread your cheeks and show me everything.'

Taine delighted in the sight of Donovan so readily following his commands, and it was an equal delight to hear Donovan gasp as he worked the thick, glistening lube into his boy's hole.

‘Now turn around and push that ass backward until you've taken the whole thing,' Taine ordered, his voice gruff and full of the most carnal desire. ‘Don't hesitate. I want to see you sit your ass down on it.'

Donovan let out a deep, animalistic moan as he duly followed his Daddy's instructions. And as if by magic, Donovan's mouth opened wide too, ready and willing to take Taine's erect manhood inside.

‘You know what to do boy,' Taine grunted, holding Donovan by his ears before moving his hands down toward his neck. ‘Satisfy your Daddy. And make yourself cum too.'

With the water raining down on them, both Taine and Donovan proceeded to have the most intensely pleasurable minutes of their lives. Before long, Donovan was bouncing his ass back and forth on the suction cup dildo while slurping and gagging on Taine's cock.

And when Taine's came, it arrived hard.

Taine's entire body tensed and he felt the biggest load of his life burst into Donovan's mouth – who himself was shooting his load onto the shower floor, only for it to immediately be swept away down the drain by the shower water.

Once they were both fully satisfied, the pair of them fell to the floor and held one another as the shower's perfectly hot water continued to fall over them.

‘I love you so much boy,' Taine said, breathless. ‘But… I've got something to tell you.'

Donovan giggled.

‘You might not find it so funny when I tell you, kid,' Taine replied, his breathing starting to return to normal.

‘You mean about you becoming a champion fighter again?' Donovan squealed with delight. ‘Chase told me! But please don't tell Jack that, otherwise Chase will get a paddling…'

Taine laughed and playfully ruffled Donovan's hair.

‘Damn it, I've been so worried about telling you,' Taine roared. ‘If only I'd known that you knew. But wait a minute… you knew and didn't say anything? Chase might be getting a paddling, but I'm thinking that you might need one too.'

Taine and Donovan burst out into laughter and held each other close.

Their relationship might not have started off on the best foot, but one thing was for sure – it certainly wasn't going to end that way. In Donovan, Taine had found the most perfect boy to cherish for the rest of their days.

Working at Danilo's academy might have been nothing more than repaying a favor to begin with, but in that moment Taine realized that it was arguably the greatest opportunity that had ever been given to him.

Regardless of how his fighting comeback went, Taine knew that from this day onward he could proudly call himself a champion – and no one could ever take that away from him.
