A Man’s Worth(Brac Pack 31)(42)

But who was he? Ahm had always worn the mantle of leadership. Now that he no longer led the Shadow elves, he wasn’t sure what his purpose in life was—aside from figuring out the growing problem within his race. What could he do to become a productive member of this family?

“What’s taking you so long?” Bryce asked from the top of the stairs. “I would think you would be racing up here and beating me into the bedroom.”

Ahm tilted his head back, staring up at his mate. From the top of the stairs, Bryce looked ten times more imposing, impressive, commanding. “What am I going to do around here?”

“What do you mean?” Bryce asked as he began to descend.

“I mean, now that I am a permanent resident here, where do I fit in?” Ahm felt vulnerable in ways he never experienced before, and he didn’t like feeling that way. He didn’t like seeming weak or being seen as useless.

“I could talk to Riley. He always has a full plate. Maybe you two can work side by side.” Bryce reached the bottom of the steps and placed a hand on the banister. “I can’t see you hanging out with Sterling or Abe. Gavin and Olsen tend to the crops and the daily lives of the animals. Riley and the twins take care of roping and all the other strenuous work. I’m pretty sure Riley would love having a right-hand man.”

“What about your father?” Ahm moved closer, needing Bryce’s body heat. He was craving it now. “I thought Riley was Malcolm’s right-hand man.”

“Pa has been talking lately about spending more time with Luke and Cole, letting his older sons run things around here.” Bryce tucked a knuckle under Ahm’s chin, his thumb grazing his skin. “You’ll learn the ropes and fit right in. I can’t imagine anyone giving you lip.”

Ahm liked the idea of working next to Riley. He wasn’t so sure about riding a smelly horse, but if he was going to live here, he needed to get used to it. “Thanks.”

“You are quite welcome, my love monkey. Now get upstairs so you can send me to heaven.”

Ahm didn’t have to be told twice. He was up the stairs, through the bedroom door, and stripping naked before Bryce even made it inside the bedroom.

His mate laughed, but Ahm didn’t find a damn thing funny. He was horny, and Bryce was about to get fucked through the floor. It didn’t take long for Bryce to get naked. It seemed the man was just as anxious as he was.

Once his bear settled onto the bed, Ahm grabbed a pillow, tapping Bryce’s hip. “I’m going to shove this pillow under your ass. I want you at just the right angle as I fuck the hell out of you.”

Bryce’s grey eyes darkened as he lifted his hips. Ahm shoved the pillow under his mate’s ass. His cock began to throb at the thought of fucking Bryce for the very first time. He had to pinch under the head of his cock in order not to orgasm at the thought.

“That excited?” Bryce asked, a thick, black brow arched high.

Ahm palmed his cock, stroking his hand up until the pre-cum leaked onto his fingers. “What do you think?” Reaching down with his free hand, Ahm gathered the clear liquid onto his fingers and then shoved them into his mouth, making a loud moaning noise.

“Holy fuck,” Bryce whispered. “Get your ass over here and fuck me.”

Ahm chuckled. “Now who’s the excited one?”

“That would be me, my little bowl of cheesy nacho dip.”

Ahm burst out laughing. “You make absolutely no sense.”

“Just trying to make you smile. Mission accomplished.”

Ahm stared tenderly at Bryce for a moment and then moved until he was between Bryce’s legs. He couldn’t believe how large Bryce looked lying there.

And damn was the man hairy. His legs looked like someone had forgotten to shut off the growing machine, letting his legs become covered in the wiry springs. Ahm ran his hands down Bryce’s thighs, letting the hair tickle his fingers. “You are one sexy-ass man.”

“I know,” Bryce said as he winked at Ahm. “Now get to fucking me.”

Ahm rolled his eyes, putting his hand out for the lube. Bryce handed it over and Ahm used one hand to stretch Bryce, the other to stroke his mate’s thick cock. He watched in wonder as Bryce turned his head, his lips parting and pleasurable moans filling the room.

He couldn’t take it any longer. Ahm pulled his hand free, lined his cock up, and sank deep into Bryce’s body. He had to rest his hands on Bryce’s legs and close his eyes at the magnificent way his mate’s body felt wrapped around his cock. Ahm had known that fucking Bryce would be good. He just never knew it was going to be this mind blowing, and he hadn’t even started yet.
