The noise that escaped him could only be described as decadent. I was already primed and hearing that brought me right to the edge. Wren got one hand to work, lifted it, and the moment he touched my cockhead, I exploded, doing exactly what I said I wanted to. My groan came up from my toes as I hunched and unloaded all over him.

I toppled onto the bed next to him and just breathed for a few seconds, before I wiped my hand on the comforter and then gathered him close. Wren didn’t hesitate to snuggle in, his head on my chest and one leg thrown over my hips.

After a few moments, Wren spoke. “That was surprisingly dirty for a man who, up until recently, thought he was ace.”

My responding chuckle was a little breathless. I still wasn’t breathing quite normally. I managed a shrug. “I was never sex repulsed, or even sex averse. I just didn’t want it for me.”

Wren absorbed that. “And now you do?”

“With you, yes.” I took a minute and gathered my words. “If I had to use labels, I’d use demisexual. And probably pan, really. Since it’s people and not gender but….” I tilted his head up so I could look him in the eye. “Really, and most importantly, I’m Wrensexual.”

He chortled. “That’s not a real thing.”

“Tell that to my dick. And my heart. It’s always been you, baby boy.”

Wren sighed and settled his head back on my chest. “I feel like I should object to that endearment, but I really don’t.”

I was going to respond, but my phone let out a chime which indicated there was someone at the front gate. I groaned, pissed at the interruption, and fought with my jeans, which were bunched up around my thighs, in order to get my phone out. I tapped at the screen and then saw the truck and trailer at the gate.

“Fuck. I forgot about Sky.” I taped the microphone button. “Welcome to the Yellow Ribbon, Sky. The gate will open in just a second. Follow the road for about a quarter mile and you’ll see the stables on the left. I’ll meet you there.”

“Thanks so much,” came the tinny reply.

I rolled Wren to his back and kissed him thoroughly, missing nothing, making sure he knew everything that was in my heart. He was panting when I pulled back, and his dick was doing its best to come back to life, but sadly, we didn’t have time to do anything about that now.

“Spend the night with me?” I asked.

“Yes. Of course.” This time Wren initiated the kiss, and I was ready to let it go on and make Sky wait. Fortunately, Wren had a cooler head, because he shoved me off him. “Go get cleaned up.”

I levered off the bed. “Stay as long as you like. Borrow any shirt you want.”

I was washed up and dressed in two minutes, and Wren watched me from the bed as I pulled on a new pair of jeans.

“That was fast,” he said with a smirk.

“In the Corps, they teach you not to waste a second. See you later, baby.”

I left before I joined him back in bed.

Sky Spotted Horse was waiting for me at the stable when I arrived. She hopped out of her truck when I approached. She was a gorgeous woman, with high cheekbones and straight black hair down her back. She was taller than I expected, thin, but her handshake was solid.

“It’s a pleasure to finally meet you in person, Mr. Harrington.”

I snorted. “Mr. Harrington is my dad. And staff sergeant no longer applies. Call me Bodhi. Want some help with your horses?”

“Thanks.”

We headed to the back of her trailer, and she opened the doors to reveal three red Appaloosa. They were beautiful animals and were docile as all get out. I would expect nothing less of the breed and their owner, whose training skills rivaled my brother’s.

“You have Crow. And this is Dinah and Dice.”

“They’re gorgeous. And I’m sure they’d like to stretch their legs after their trip. I’ve got a paddock over here where they can do exactly that. Unless you need the dry lot?” I raised a brow, and she shook her head. “Then come on, we’ll turn them out, and then I’ll let you get settled. I know your house won’t be ready until the first.”

She followed along, leading her two horses, and called up, “I appreciate you letting me stay on property until we all get settled.”

“Of course.”

“Bode!” Wren’s voice caught my attention, and I paused, letting him jog over, his injured knee clearly not bothering him too much. He gave me a quick kiss and held up my keys.
