Within seconds, they were piled in Ben’s double cab utility truck and back on the road. When they passed an unmarked police car Ben turned down another road and killed the lights.
Seth held onto the dashboard. “Man, you can turn the lights back on anytime. Seriously, anytime.”
Ben chuckled. “I got this.” When they got to a highway, Ben turned the truck toward home.
Everyone emptied the breaths they’d been holding. “Who in the fuck can do that?” Seth asked, hands still flat on the dashboard. “You’re nuts, man.”
Ben lowered his hat a bit and turned on the radio.
“If I have to sit back here with you guys then no making out.” Knox propped his elbow on the door and cradling the side of his head. “I need a drink.”
Seth turned in his seat. “No, you don’t.”
Ethan had always seen Seth as the big, happy-go-lucky, albeit tattooed with small gauge earrings, kind of guy, but the look on his face was anything but friendly. Note to self—don’t piss off the bulky cigar-smoking bear.
“I…um…I’m sorry for all of this.”
Niko tightened his grip on Ethan’s hand. “We got this, baby. He’s not going to mess with you again.”
Knox snorted. “I never thought I’d hear Niko the grouchy ass tough guy call someone baby.”
Niko reached over Ethan’s chest and smacked the side of Knox’s head. “Shut the fuck up.”
“Ah.” Knox rubbed the spot where Niko’s hand had landed. “That’s my boy.”
Ben pulled the truck in the lot behind the shop. Everyone filed out. Seth leaned against the door of his black Mustang Cobra. Ethan had no clue what the guy did outside the tattoo shop, but whatever it was, he was making a ton of money to be able to drive different cars to the shop.
“Mitch will figure out the legal side of all this. Let the system work, Niko. Don’t do anything stupid. You’ve got your man back. If Mitch is the bastard Scarlet says he is, he shouldn’t have a problem helping us out.”
Ethan finally felt safe when Niko pulled him close. “I’ll do whatever I can to help.” He leaned into Niko’s chest, grateful for the ultimate security in his arms.
After the guys pulled out of the lot, Niko kissed Ethan on the top of his head. “Let’s stay here tonight, baby. You need to rest. I’ll check on Casper first thing in the morning.”
Exhaustion claimed his muscles and he almost tripped going up the stairs to the apartment. By the time they’d slid into bed, they were naked and wrapped in each other’s arms.
“I want you,” Ethan whispered, peppering kisses along the brass knuckles tattoo on Niko’s neck. “Let me inside, please.”
“You need to rest.” Niko rolled so Ethan was lying across his chest.
“No.” Ethan leaning up, moving his hips between Niko’s spread thighs. “I need in here.” He dipped his fingers on the slick skin beneath Niko’s sac. “I need you.” When his finger breached Niko’s ring, he moaned. “See, you want me in here too.”
“Jesus, you know how to play me. Do you have lube?”
Ethan crawled over Niko and reached on the floor by the bed. When he came up, he squeezed the tube and rubbed his fingers together. “I want to be on top of you.”
“Then do it.”
As he knelt between Niko’s knees, he couldn’t wait for the romance and slow time they’d taken before. He needed to fuck, to release all the fear and anger he’d harbored since the day he’d left home. “I have to go fast.”
Niko grunted and tugged on Ethan’s cock. “I like it when you go fast. Make me come, baby.”
When Niko rose on his forearms to watch, Ethan fisted the base of his cock and drove home. Niko held his breath, his eyes screwed shut. That first penetration would hurt and burn, but pleasure would follow and Niko would be okay.
Ethan felt his cock thicken and vibrate as Niko slid his hand down to grip his own cock. In sync, they danced. Ethan pushed, his balls tucking in tight when Niko pulled, rounding his wide hand over the purple head. “I can’t last long.” Ethan clenched his teeth. “I have to come. I want to come on you.”
Niko nodded and pumped his fist harder. Ethan pulled free and stroked until warm heat rose and his body locked. He leaned forward, splashing thick white streams over Niko’s hand. “Fuck, Ethan. Holy fuck.” Niko panted, pulling faster until his hand and dick were coated. Spent, muscles relaxed, Ethan leaned in leaned forward and slipped his tongue where he’d washed Niko’s cock with his seed.
“Come in my mouth, Niko.” Ethan opened his mouth wide letting Niko shove the head of his cock into the back of his throat. Hot jets filled skimmed over his tongue and slid in thick streams down his throat.
