I suddenly realized I was almost out of food. I’d been relying on Tanner to feed me. I had enough to get groceries for the week, sort of. It’d be pretty basic eating but I couldn't expect my landlord to fork out for my food. Another reason why I had to sell the car.
Instead of my usual stop, I got off the bus earlier and shopped for groceries. Luckily, it didn’t cost much and I lugged it three blocks to the house. Letting myself in, I dumped the stuff on the kitchen counter, only to discover a note on the fridge.
I cooked. There are five dinners here, one in the fridge and I froze the others. And there’s fruit on the table.
Apples, oranges and bananas were piled in a huge dish.
“How lucky am I?” I said out loud. I owed him big time and would repay him once I had my finances sorted.
I phoned Tanner to say thank you but it went straight to voicemail.
After putting away what I’d bought, I stuck the meal Tanner had prepared in the microwave and grabbed a soda. But as the microwave dinged, a car pulled up in the driveway.
Tanner! Perhaps his flight had been delayed. Should I rush out to greet him? Let him sneak up on me? Get naked and offer him my hole or maybe my cock to suck on? Footsteps on the porchalerted me that he was almost here. So I yanked down my pants and underwear.
My landlord’s scent greeted me first but it was a little different. But with the aroma of the food swirling around me and the increased blood flow to my cock, I dismissed why it had altered. With my length in one hand, I yelled, “Surprise” as a man appeared in the doorway.
“Oh my Gods,” he shouted.
Not Tanner. Someone who kinda looked like him, his scent was similar but… oh shit was this the brother? But that wasn’t the worst of it. Or the best? My befuddled brain couldn’t piece everything together.
The guy staring at my dick, a look of horror etched on his face, had the most fragrant, enticing scent, and my cock went from a semi to hard as a rock. What the ever-loving fuck was happening?
“Not the person I was expecting,” I choked out.
The guy… I guessed he was the brother… unless I’d exposed my length to someone intending to rob the place… he was leaning against the doorway… no more like propping himself up, one clenched fist at his side. Blood had drained from his face andhis dark eyes flickered, almost as though he was waging a war with himself.
That was so silly. How could I see that in his gaze? It was my mind trying to make sense of a messed up situation, one of my own making.
How did I get out of this? There were no rules. But I was overcome with sadness because I’d been falling in love with Tanner and now this guy had stolen my heart after saying three words and not the words that expressed love.
Accompanying my despair was loathing that I was… what… cheating on Tanner by being attracted to this guy?
“Are you the brother?” I managed to get out.
He nodded as he positioned himself behind a chair. I caught a glimpse of his crotch and could have sworn he was aroused. Not only was I insanely attracted to Tanner’s brother, but he might feel the same way. I was going to break up their family because neither would ever forgive me or the other for…
Stop. My mind was racing at a million miles an hour, conjuring up scenarios that might never happen.
“Wasn’t expecting you.” That much was obvious.
“I can see that,” he said, his gaze fixed on my length.
“I was just heating—” Why did I say that? My entire body was on fire.
“Mmmm.” A droplet of sweat trickled over his cheek and I almost leaned over and licked it off. What was wrong with me? I’d always been a one-alpha at a time guy and here I was wishing the brother would yank down his pants and plow into me.
“I should?—”
He cut me off. “Yeah. Probably for the best.”
With trembling fingers, I pulled up my briefs and pants and washed my hands. I couldn’t introduce myself to the guy after I’d been gripping my dick.
“Well that was awkward.” I cringed hearing the words come out of my mouth.
“I guess.”
As I studied Tanner’s brother, he appeared to be in pain. He was hunched over and mumbling to himself.
