“Will you help us with this next number?” Matteo asked, passing him a solid black box with the words “Mon Coeur”—My Heart—written in gold lettering.

The box was simple and classic.

“Matteo. What’s this?” Levi asked, taking the box from his boss and running his hand over the embossed lettering.

“Oh, this isn’t from me. Open it.”

Curious, Levi pulled off the lid and gasped when he saw the item lying inside. He pulled it out and stared at the most gorgeous suit jacket he had ever laid eyes on.

The jacket looked like it had stepped out of a Beauty and the Beast musical production. It was yellow, with white sequins that glimmered under the lights of the club. Around the cuffs was a delicate white lace that added a certain classical feel to the bright and flashy design. This jacket was so perfectly meant for him.

“Oh my God, this jacket is gorgeous!” Levi squealed, quickly ripping off his shirt and wrapping his bare chest inside the surprisingly soft jacket. This was La Maison de M, after all. People did come to see a sexy show, even if he wasn’t sucking on their dicks anymore.

Matteo helped him with a few of the buttons before adjusting his collar and smoothing out the surface.

“There. You look stunning,” Matteo said, patting Levi’s chest and arms before leaning forward to give him a gentle kiss on his cheek.

“Oh, you’re going to make me cry, M.” Levi felt touched. He felt gorgeous and couldn’t believe he got to wear such a beautiful piece of clothing, which, of course, fit him perfectly.

Then panic set in.

“Shit! M, what number are we doing?” He suddenly realized he hadn’t rehearsed anything with the guys, so he had no idea what he should be doing.

“Oh, don’t worry, you’ll know what to do when the time comes,” Matteo said with an evil grin on his face.

Okay, that wasn’t weird at all.

Then the lights went out, and a single purple spotlight reappeared on stage. Levi struggled to make out the figure standing in the darkness, but it was too dark, and the man had a cloak covering his head.

Slowly, the lights got brighter, and the song “Beauty and the Beast” began to play. Levi’s throat tightened. He loved this song. He often played it on repeat whenever he was cleaning or dancing in his room.

The figure on stage stood, removing his cloak and letting it fall to the stage. The man was shirtless and dressed in the tightest navy-blue booty shorts known to man. Seriously, the damn thing could barely contain the massive bulge struggling to get loose and strangle everyone on stage.

Levi felt guilty for staring. But seriously, how fucking big was that thing? The last time he had seen a bulge that big was on… wait. Could it be?

No. It couldn’t. He was working tonight in Paris.

Levi lifted his gaze, taking in the man’s chiseled bare chest, his strong jawline, then his gorgeous blue eyes, which were hidden behind a half mask that resembled the face of a beast.

It was the eyes that did it.

They contained so much love and emotion that Levi recognized them instantly.

Chase.

Frozen in place, Levi watched as the man he loved walked toward him and stuck out his hand. Levi placed his hand gently in his and was pulled tight against his love’s broad chest.

“Dance with me,” Chase whispered.

Around them, a path cleared as Chase led them both back on stage. Their eyes were locked together as the music continued to play.

This had to be the most romantic thing anyone had ever done for Levi. His heart was racing, his eyes were watery, and his grip on Chase never loosened.

It was in that moment when Levi thought that nothing could ever top what he was feeling, that Chase opened his mouth and began to sing.

His voice was deep, and his pitch was all off, but the fact that Chase was singing “Beauty and the Beast” to him made Levi’s heart explode.

Staring into each other’s eyes as they danced, goosebumps covered Levi’s skin. Unable to take it any longer, Levi decided to join his man in singing his favorite song. The moment was pure magic.
