“Tell me something I don’t know,” he said.
“I’m not an easy man to love.”
“Loving you will be worth the fight it will take to do so, Franky.”
We tussled for control of the sheet, and I easily tore it away from his white-knuckled grip before catching him by the ankle and dragging him to the end of the bed. Leland’s legs went around me, and I lifted him into my arms, holding him up by the soft globes of his ass.
“I’m stubborn, and selfish, and can get in my own way, and I sometimes show that I care by doing things that prove the opposite.” I nibbled at his lips as he scraped his nails along my scalp.
“How many times do I have to say that I’m not afraid of you? When will you finally believe me, Franky?”
“Maybe after you’ve loved me through my worst, Leelee Bear.”
“Bring it on.”
“I’m going to make love to you this time,” I said, as something like a purr climbed the walls of his throat.
“Just promise me I’ll still feel you tomorrow,” he said, inhaling my kisses.
Grabbing the lube off my nightstand, I got us ready, then lifted him by his ass cheeks before sinking him onto my shaft. “Slow down,” I whispered into his mouth when he began bouncing on my cock. He stopped, letting me take the reins, and I moved him up and down effortlessly as I walked us onto the balcony, shifting my hungry kisses to soft pecks across his nose and mouth.
“Franky,” he said on a groan when I settled his ass onto the railing and dipped him back a fraction to thrust in and out painfully slow. Not once did he flinch from the vulnerable position I’d placed him in. I held him steadfastly, both arms slung across his back as he interlaced his hands behind my neck, trusting me not to let him fall.
I’d had every intention of watching the sun rise over his shoulders, but all I could do was watch the heavy emotion building behind his bright irises.
I strung the love making out for as long as I could, eventually carrying him to bed before finishing inside of him and then massaging my cum into his skin after drinking every drop of his.
Afterward, Leland hugged me from behind, inhaling and breathing into my sweaty nape.
“This will take some time,” I said, yawning and closing my eyes. Me leaving Selene wouldn’t be an overnight thing. It would need to be done right. I needed him to know that.
“Just don’t change your mind, Franky.” His arms eventually grew slack, his breathing evening.
Falling asleep should’ve been the easiest thing for me to do by then. I’d officially been up for twenty-four hours, and I’d fucked well beyond my limits for the day when running on no sleep, little food, and inadequate hydration. But Leland’s plea was a strong wind blowing the fog of slumber away.
I held on to his arms tighter, focusing on his soft snores pelting my neck, and ignored my phone, which now vibrated with an incoming text.
Sleep eventually took mercy on me, but I woke up feeling unrested and wondering how long I’d been out for. I reached for my phone to check the time, seeing the text message waiting for me. It was time stamped three hours ago, and the name on the locked screen read:Selene.
I swiped up, fingers folding tightly around the device as the five-word message sank deep into my bones, sending a chill through me.
Selene:The boys are coming home.
Chapter 16
Franklin
I was on my third cup of hot tea by the time Leland trudged downstairs. I couldn’t shake the cold dread clinging to my bones.
“You’re going to crash at some point today,” he said from the hall beyond the kitchen.
I entered from the patio, sliding my mug onto the kitchen counter, waiting as he advanced on me. His sweats hung low, revealing the trimmed hairs between the deep V at his hips, and his cock tapped against the gray fabric with every step. “Good afternoon,” I said, placing a chaste kiss along his smooth jaw.
He smiled boyishly, then grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge.
“And you’re going to be climbing the walls all night,” I said. “Between the hours you spent asleep at your apartment last night and then again once we got home, there’s no way you’ll be finding rest tonight.”
“I’m sure you can manage to put me to bed,” he said, his brows dancing as he stepped into my space again.
