“Wesley fell off the jungle gym at the p-park by Janie’s and b-broke his arm.”

“Shit.You’re at Melrose-Wakefield?”I asked and headed out my front door.

“Yeah—the ER.”She sniffled as I climbed back into my car.“Alex isn’t answering his phone.He always calls me back, and I’ve been trying to get in touch with him for two hours!”A hint of panic laced her tone.

“Is Janie there,” I said, naming her longtime girlfriend who would give her the support she needed.

“Right beside me as usual.”

“Is Aaron with you?”I asked about their other young son.

“Yeah, and he’s really upset.”

I could imagine at the age of six that he fed off her emotions.“I’ll be there in about fifteen and can take him for some ice cream.You just focus on Wesley.Alex is probably in a meeting and will call you back soon,” I assured her even though it might be a lie.

“Thank you,” she whispered.

I rang Alex as soon as I hung up with his wife—his cell went straight to voicemail.I tried the main number to the company he worked for but got the answering service stating they were closed until Monday morning.His direct office line rang a few times before his voicemail kicked in.

“Alex—fucking call your wife,” I snipped the message, my forehead deeply lined with a frown while turning into the hospital’s parking lot.Hanging up without another word, I cursed my friend under my breath.

He was a workaholic to the max, never satisfied with the money in his portfolio.

I tried his cell again.Shot him a text.

Then headed into the ER to help his wife along with Janie pick up the pieces as we’d done so many times I’d lost count.

I loved the man, but his lack of availability for the people who needed him the most pissed me off.Having no family of my own made me envious of what he’d found and want to wring his neck to remind him of all his blessings.He ought to cling to that shit.Remember what ought to come first.

Fuck knew I would have my priorities set if I had his life.

But I never would.

Chapter7

Kellen

My client for the night rubbed all over my front like a cat in heat, his flirty smirk a permanent fixture on his face since EEMM’s limo driver and I had picked him up a couple of hours earlier.

Eighteen years my junior, he had major bratty daddy issues.Reminded me of Sean to be honest.I allowed him to explore his sexuality, humored his desire to play games where he was the naughty boy and I was his protective caretaker.While the dynamic didn’t do shit for me, the youngster was cute as fuck, and it’d been almost a week since I’d gotten off.

He had my dick hard with how he rubbed his ass all up in my junk, his arms lifted so he could wrap his hands behind my neck.I grasped his hips as we gyrated to the thumping bass at his favorite club.I wasn’t one for dancing or the wild gay nightlife he preferred, but I would please the client without voicing a complaint out loud since it meant I would get paid afterward.

My head began to pound after two hours of tolerating the atmosphere—I was ready to move onto the good shit and find some relief for the eruption brewing in my balls.

I bent to whisper in his ear to see if he was ready to head out, and my gaze snagged on a couple dancing a few feet to our left.

JJ.

Sudden lust jolted my dick in the confines of my jeans.I released a groan at how his hips rolled—against a blond man an inch or two shorter and more slender than his build.Leg between the blond’s thigh, JJ ground his pelvis in slow, sensual movements that mimicked fucking.Their foreheads pressed together, and they swayed with effortless grace as though they’d been doing so for years on end.

Erection aching, I stared, trying to work out what I was feeling.Annoyance?Jealousy?No fucking way either were true since I hardly knew the man and wasn’t interested in him beyond this ridiculous sexual attraction.Somehow, I managed to continue dancing with my client, but my heart was no longer in the moment with him.Nor was my shaft aching like a motherfucker due to his warmth pressing against my front.

As though JJ felt my stare on his profile, he turned his partner slightly to face me head-on and met my gaze.

Same as when our eyes clashed outside the courthouse, my insides incinerated and twisted up tight.Desire beyond lust lit in my guts and groin, bucking my cock inside my jeans.

“Fuck,” I groaned the word, and JJ’s gaze dropped.I licked my lower lip he stared at.
