Chapter 9

Nine

A s soon as the elevator door shut them in, Scout pinned Alex against the back wall and crushed their mouths together. They went from zero to ninety in seconds. Hands grasped and roamed, tongues danced, and hearts pounded as the elevator headed skyward. Alex knew nothing would stop them tonight. It wouldn’t be long before they were in Scout’s bed, naked and pleasuring each other. They would make love for the first time, and Alex wanted to savor every moment.

He knew he’d fallen hard for Scout but was so afraid to voice those three little words. Afraid Scout didn’t feel the same way. Afraid others would think he was only after Scout’s money—like Erik announced to everyone. The jealous bastard was not-so-quietly escorted out of the Cock & Bull by two big bouncers after Rico advised him he was permanently banned from the establishment.

However, all of Alex’s fears disappeared the moment Scout announced to everyone in the pub that he was in love with Alex. The same words almost slipped from Alex’s mouth in response, but he held them back and told Scout the next best thing he could think of instead.

He wanted to say “I love you” to Scout for the first time when it was just the two of them, with no eager gazes staring at them. While it wouldn’t be the first time he told a guy he loved them, it was different with Scout. More meaningful. More absolute. He realized while he may have loved a few old boyfriends, he’d never been in love with them. It hadn’t been the forever kind of love he felt for Scout. Alex doubted he would ever love another man as much as he loved the one he was making out with in a hotel elevator.

A thought penetrated his mind, and he opened his eyes, searching where the walls met the car’s ceiling. He wrenched his mouth from Scout’s, gasping for air. “W-wait ... the security cameras, Scout.” The last thing he wanted was for their intimate moment to be broadcast for someone else to see.

Scout kissed along Alex’s smooth jawline, which he’d shaved again before they went out earlier. His teeth nipped Alex’s earlobe, sending a shiver of delight down his spine. The man drove him crazy with barely a touch. Thanks to the sensual assault, Alex was on the brink of utter insanity.

In between tonguing Alex’s ear, Scout whispered, “Before we got in here ... I disabled the camera through my phone ... because I knew ... I wouldn’t be able to wait until we got upstairs ... I also made sure we wouldn’t stop on any other floors on the way up.”

Grasping the sides of his boyfriend’s shirt, Scout yanked it out from under the waistband of Alex’s jeans and delved his hands under the fabric. When Scout’s palms made contact with bare skin, Alex swore jolts of electricity coursed through him. His cock throbbed with want and need.

The elevator car halted, and the doors slid open. The two men didn’t have to worry about running into Magnus since the actor was in Los Angeles for the next week or so.

Scout stuck his hand under Alex’s belt buckle, made a fist, and practically dragged him out of the elevator toward the door to his apartment. Alex was more than happy to follow along. Within seconds, they were inside and behind a closed door, attacking each other again. Shirts, shoes, socks, jeans, and briefs were disposed of as they kissed, stumbled, bumped into things and each other, and thudded against the walls leading from the front door, through the living room, down the hall, and into Scout’s bedroom.

When the back of Alex’s legs hit the side of the bed, Scout gently pushed on his chest, sending him falling onto his back, breathing heavily. Letting his gaze roam Scout’s naked body, Alex tried to memorize every delicious contour. The man was hot with clothes on, but without? Holy shit, he was scorching. Scout’s cock was a thing of beauty too—long and thick. Alex’s ass clenched as he imagined what that cock would feel like inside him.

He forced his gaze upward, and his cheeks burned when he saw Scout eyeing him just as hungrily. Scout smiled. “I love it when you blush. Never thought that would be a turn-on for me, but it is.”

Climbing onto the bed, Scout straddled Alex’s thighs, then bent down to nuzzle his neck. He licked and nibbled his way lower, taking a few moments to lave attention on Alex’s nipples. They’d never felt as sensitive as they did then, and when Scout tugged on one with his teeth, Alex involuntarily bucked his hips.

While Scout continued downward, Alex ran his hands over as much of the other man’s body as he could reach. Baby-soft skin covered lean, sinewy muscle.

Without warning, Scout opened his mouth and swiped the head of Alex’s weeping cock with his tongue, drawing an agonized whimper from him. The muscles in Alex’s abdomen and thighs quivered with anticipation. “Please,” he whispered.

“My pleasure,” Scout replied, a moment before he took Alex’s shaft into his mouth and sucked hard. His beard rasped deliciously against Alex’s thighs .

As much as Alex wanted to watch Scout give him a blowjob, his eyes fluttered shut, and he dropped back onto the bed as his body was bombarded with conflicting sensations, each one fighting for superiority in his mind.

Scout’s head bobbed up and down, and his lips and tongue worked Alex over. His hands caressed Alex’s thighs, hips, and torso. Just when Alex thought he would explode—something he didn’t want to happen yet—Scout released him. Rolling off him into a sitting position, Scout opened the top drawer to his nightstand and retrieved a condom and a bottle of lube. “Turn onto your right side. I want to fuck you slow for a bit. Not sure how long I’ll last, but I don’t want to rush this.”

Smiling, Alex did as requested, giving Scout his back as he bent his left knee and drew it up toward his chest, opening his ass for better access. Scout quickly donned the condom and drizzled some lube onto the tip. He then let a few drops fall into the crack of Alex’s ass. The cool liquid flowed over his puckered hole, which, a moment later, allowed two fingers to slide inside of him. It’d been a few months since he last had sex, but he easily took Scout’s fingers. Taking that monster of a cock might be a bit of a challenge, but he was more than up to it.

When Scout rubbed and stimulated Alex’s prostate, he gasped and moaned. Pleasure raced through every cell of his body, but he wanted ... no, he needed, more. “ Please, Scout, make love to me ... need your cock inside me.”

Even though he asked for more, Alex felt a moment of remorse when Scout pulled his fingers out, but that was almost immediately replaced by the large, bulbous head of Scout’s dick. Alex forced himself to relax the muscles in his ass as Scout slowly pushed in, nearly splitting him in half. The intense burn had Alex hissing, but he thrust his hips back instead of trying to escape the invasion. “Yes! Oh, God, yes!”

When Scout’s cock finally slid past the tight ring of Alex’s sphincter, it lit up every nerve in his ass. He panted as Scout slowly fucked him, pulling almost all the way out before gliding back in again.

After a few moments, Scout murmured, “Can’t hold back much longer. Feels too fucking good.” He increased the pace, driving both of them higher and higher. Reaching around Alex’s hip, he grasped Alex’s throbbing erection. His lightly calloused hand pumped up and down, drawing Alex closer to the orgasm that threatened to explode.

“Come for me, baby,” Scout demanded before he bit Alex’s earlobe. “I need you to come because I’m almost there.”

Scout squeezed Alex’s cock hard, and pure ecstasy streaked through his entire body as he came in spurts in his lover’s hand. His mind went completely blank for a moment, focusing only on the euphoria his body experienced. After a few more punishing thrusts, Scout plunged deep and held himself there as his own climax tore through him. He cursed as he emptied his seed into the latex barrier separating him from Alex, who wished for the day they wouldn’t need the protection.

Completely spent, the two men sagged into a heap, sweating and heaving for oxygen. After a few moments, Scout slid from Alex’s ass and rolled onto his back, closing his eyes as his breathing slowed.

With his heart swelling within his chest, Alex flipped onto his other side and ran his hand over the coarse hair on Scout’s jaw. “Look at me.” When he did, Alex continued. “I love you, Scout. I’ve never felt for any other man what I feel for you. I’m here for as long as you’ll have me.”

Turning his head, Scout kissed Alex’s palm. “I guess that means you’ll be here for a very long time, babe, because I have no intention of ever letting you go.”
