Red Hot(Sex & Mayhem #5)(39)

“Helping me with the bucket list,” he said, blowing out the smoke.

“Maybe I should make one of my own.” Red Jack winked at a girl who looked his way as she walked by. “I think I’d start with an orgy. Oh, wait, I’ve already done that.”

Loki looked at her too, but his gaze eventually settled back on Red Jack. “If you knew you had three months to live. What would you put on your bucket list?” he asked, slowly moving toward the entrance of the club and urging Red Jack to follow with a gesture.

Red Jack frowned, pondering the question. Three months meant no consequences. Even if he did something really bad, his jail time would be cut short. He lit himself a cigarette to have more time to think. Funnily enough, ‘fuck Lucy’ wasn’t really that important in that context. “I’d wanna do something other people would remember. I don’t know what though. Maybe do something that would make my mom hate my guts a little less.”

“What did you do to her?”

Red Jack bristled up immediately. “I didn’t do shit. I’m just not the perfect sonny boy she wanted. Doesn’t matter, she’s got five other kids to make up for me.”

“That sucks... I think you’ve made good for yourself,” said Loki, walking next to Red Jack. “You’ve got money, you’re popular, you’ve got your friends...”

Red Jack took another drag of smoke and smiled. Yeah, he did. It all worked out in the end. It was nice to hear that someone else noticed. “I’ve got my new brothers. For me, they’re more important than blood.”

“Blood means shit,” growled Loki. “I haven’t spoken to my family for years, and I don’t want to. Out of sight, out of mind.”

“So, are you, like… alone?”

Loki stopped so abruptly someone walking behind them cursed, forced to stop, and only walked past a few seconds later, but Loki didn’t seem to even notice. “Yes. I just have you.”

Red Jack went silent, unsure what to think. Loki hadn’t known him for that long. How could he depend on Red Jack doing shit for him? He shook his head. “You’re funny.”

“You think?”

“Yeah, hilarious. Now go in.” He pushed Loki forward and fumbled in his pocket for the gig tickets. He looked around, seeking an opening he could use to push forward, but his eyes settled on a girl staring their way. He was sure it was him she was watching at first but as he followed her gaze, it became clear that it was Loki she was ogling. He grumbled beneath his breath and stepped forward, making sure she couldn’t see Loki anymore. She blinked and quickly looked away, covering herself with pastel-streaked hair.

The closer they came to the entrance, the thicker the crowd became, but at least no one was pushing hard to get in. The supporting band hadn’t even started playing so there was plenty of time for weed and some drinks before the main act, and Red Jack was kind of happy he was here. It had been ages since he’d been to a gig this big. And with Loki by his side, he was bound to have a great time. Maybe even score with a girl. Loki didn’t need to know.





Chapter 12



Loki could hardly speak by the time the concert was completely over. Soaked in sweat, both his own and everyone else’s around him, he was still buzzing with excitement. He didn’t get to push all the way to the first rows, but maybe it was for the best that he avoided the heat of bodies squeezed together tight like canned fish. Peter Apple had been amazing though. Vivid, expressive¸ and unashamedly sexual as he dominated the stage in just a pair of extremely tight leather pants. At one point, he even let one of the girls in first row touch his dick!

By the time the show was over, Loki’s knees hurt from jumping for over an hour, a quiet beeping was a constant presence in his ears, and he’d die for a cold beer to soothe the ache in his throat. He was so insanely happy.

“Jack¸ what do you think? Did you like it?” he asked, turning to face him.

Jack gave him a drunken smile and nodded. “Good show.”

Maybe this would be the night Loki would get to fuck Jack? He seemed to be in a great mood, and the amount of alcohol he’d poured into his body would help. Most guys would enjoy the stimulation if they only gave it a chance and loosened up.

“Did you see his dick? He was hard for half the time,” whispered Loki into Jack’s ear, still giddy after seeing it live. He’d love to suck Peter Apple’s dick, and Jack fucking him from behind would make it even better.

The way Jack’s face went red was pure pleasure to watch. “No! I didn’t look at it!”

Loki chuckled and knocked on Jack’s chest. “Sure you didn’t.”
