“Sure.” I led us into the lounge area and took a seat on the sofa. He quickly took the seat next to me. I had half expected him to take the seat at the other end, but when he took the seat and pressed his leg against mine, I began to wonder just what the fuck I was doing.

Why the hell had I told him I wasn’t a one-night guy?! Iwasa one-night guy. I was the bachelor of our group back home, so why the hell I had tried to make out otherwise I didn’t know.

“Hey.” He reached over and took my hand in his. Threading our fingers together, he rested our clasped hands on my leg and began stroking his thumb across the back of my hand. “What is it? You look a million miles away.”

“It’s nothing.” I shook my head at him, attempting to ignore the way I had quickly ruined the mood. We had left the hotel happy to be spending time together and now my stupid emotional insecurities had completely fucked it up.

He sighed loudly and pulled his hand away before he abruptly stood up.

“You want me to go?” I asked him.Fuck, fuck, fuck.

“No.” He quickly discarded his suit jacket and threw it over the back of the sofa. He then proceeded to stun the fuck out of me by placing his hands on the cushion each side of me, caging me in against the sofa while he climbed over me. He parted his legs, holding himself over me and placing his ass over my parted legs. “That’s better. Now, where did you go?”

“I’m a one-night guy.”

“Okay?” He frowned, looking even more confused.

“I told you I wasn’t a one-night guy.” I placed my hands on his sides and stared at his chest, focusing on the stray strand of cotton that had come undone over one of the buttons on his shirt. “I’m usually that guy that fucks around and I…” I blew out a breath.

“And you what?” Freddie asked, urging me to continue.

“And I like you. I want you. For once, I don’t want it to be for one night only.”

“Luke.” I shook my head at him, refusing to look at him. “Luke.” He took my chin in his hand and pulled my gaze up to him. “You seem to have already ended us before we’ve even begun. I’m not going to promise you anything, but I’m also not saying it’s gonna be one night and one night only.” He paused before he stroked his thumb across my bottom lip. “I fuck and dump them. It’s what I do. I don’t normally want to get to know them like I do with you. Let’s just enjoy what we have for as long as we have it.”

“That’s not the problem, Freddie. I’m not that much of an emotional wreck.” He laughed at my choice of words.

“Then what is it?” he asked me.

I blew out a breath. “I go home to London in a couple of months. So whatever we start here, the clock is already ticking against us.”

CHAPTEREIGHT

FREDDIE

How had I never thought that Luke may have only been here for a short period of time? In the time I’d known him, he seemed like he was settled here. Yes, I knew he’d spoken about coming over here for a wedding and then his friends had traveled back home but he’d stayed. He’d got an apartment here, a job even, and had started to build friendships. Luke had me—if he wanted me.

I thought on Luke’s words and brushed a chaste kiss against his lips, as I breathed the words I never thought I was capable of. “Well, I’d rather have this time and explore it with you than nothing. I mean, a hot, sexy man at my disposal, who wouldn’t be game…?”

“Give over.” Luke reached forward and grabbed the lapels of my shirt and gave them a tug upward, stiffening the collar as his fingers trailed around my neckline to the front of my shirt, until he reached the buttons. He began to undo them one by one. The process was slow and torturous as our breaths started to increase and Luke’s hardened length started to twitch against my thigh. “Want me to stop?”

“Never,” I admitted. “I want less torture and more action.”

“I thought you’d never ask.”

Our hands went wild in a mist of fury the moment our lust driven gazes connected as we began to ravage each other to see how fast we could get naked. I didn’t care about the expelled buttons from our shirts that had been flung across the floor. I’d pay for more. I’d pay for a dozen more if I had to. I had a primal need to taste that golden skin of Luke’s with my tongue and travel it along the lines of his patterned work of art that covered his skin as he explained each meaning behind them to me. I wanted to run my tongue along the grooves of his hard, defined muscles that had my cock weeping with need that I’d felt through his shirt and make him whimper with pleasure, then watch as his hips bucked against mine as I toyed with his nipples, licking and lavishing each one before sucking then biting them as his cock leaked pre-cum and he begged for me to touch him.

I forced myself backwards to stand as Luke’s hand remained wrapped around my neck, pulling him with me, and I started to make quick work on his belt buckle. I alternated between small, peppered kisses and sharp bites across his collarbone as he hissed.

“Freddie, I want more.”

“I’ve got you,” I uttered against the curve of his ear, before giving him a sharp quick tug on his lobe, then soothing it with my mouth as I dropped his trousers and boxers in one go and reached for his hard length in my hand. “Feel better?”

I noticed his eyes roll back and the slight nod of his head as I felt the warmth of Luke’s hands begin to trail down my shoulders, massaging as he went. I couldn’t hold back the groan any longer as it expelled from my lips the further his hands traveled down my back.

“You like that?”

“Mmm,” I uttered hungrily as Luke quickly moved his hands around to my front and halted at my sides, waiting for my unspoken confirmation to continue. I skimmed my thumb along his slit and gathered the pre-cum on my thumb before raising it to my mouth and sucking the digit deep in my mouth. Luke’s teeth dug into his slightly parted lips as his eyes darkened at the sight, leaning in to taste himself on my lips as he undid my belt, dropped my trousers and boxers in one motion and reached for my cock.
