Chapter Three
Neil couldn’t deny everything about this house jarred him and disoriented his senses. The moment he entered the front door, the walls seemed to press down on him. It took a special kind of courage to continue living in this place of nightmares, the way Rob did.
Hell, only Rob’s presence kept him rooted down and sane, even though he’d suggested they come here in the first place. By volunteering to return here, where everything began, Neil hoped to exorcise the demons that continued to haunt him.
“Take off your clothes,” Neil ordered. “I want to see how hard you are for me, how much you want my cock.”
Commands came to him naturally and knowing Rob would submit to him fully and no one else—that was icing on the cake. It didn’t hurt learning Rob had never brought another man here.
Devious smile on his lips, Rob reached for his tie. Neil beat him to the punch and tugged away Rob’s tie until the drenched fabric dangled in his hand. Rob gasped in surprise, watching him intently. Taking off his own tie, Neil braided the two pieces of material together, enjoying Rob’s increasing discomfort.
“Will you make me repeat myself, Rob?”
Rob shrugged off his blazer and fumbled for the button of his shirt. Every inch of flesh Rob unveiled made Neil’s dick thicken. Neil placed their ties on the corner of the bed and undressed. His mouth watered when Rob finally kicked off his shoes, trousers and boxers. Nude and glorious, Rob spread his thighs, showing Neil his erection. Neil didn’t miss the way Rob licked his lips once Neil stood in front of him, body and soul bared.
“You’ve really bulked up,” Rob murmured in appreciation.
“Going to the gym became one of my hobbies.” Neil retrieved the tie.
When Rob began to reach for his hardening shaft, Neil flicked the tie against his hand.
“Behave,” Neil chided.
Rob pouted. Beads of water still dotted his skin, like he’d come from a bath. Neil couldn’t wait to put his mouth to every inch of Rob, to taste what was his. “But you look so tempting. Man candy. Mine.”
“Mine,” Neil repeated, still unable to believe the words.
“Yours,” Rob agreed.
“Hands out.” Rob offered him his hands and Neil bound the fabric over his wrist. He double-checked to make sure that while his knots were firm, they wouldn’t cut the circulation. Fuck, but his black tie wound around Rob’s blue one looked amazing on Rob’s pale complexion.
“Why did you do that? Bind the two ties together?” Rob asked.
Neil pressed a hand against Rob’s chest to feel Rob’s racing heartbeat. He gave Rob’s chest a gentle push, until Rob lay on his back, gaze meeting his.
“Two is always stronger than one.”
Rob beamed, getting it. “Ready to ride me, cowboy?”
“Not yet.”
Neil blanketed his body over Rob, pulling Rob’s restrained hands above his head. Bodies touching, heat leapt from Rob’s body to his, hot enough to chase the cold away. Rob moaned softly underneath him, vainly rubbing his body and his dick against Neil’s. Fuck, Neil could have burst right there, but he wanted to take his time.
Silencing Rob’s mouth with a kiss, Neil nibbled and sucked. Rob yielded to him, opening his lips wider, so Neil could deepen the kiss. Neil ran his hands all over the familiar planes of Rob’s body, reacquainting himself.
“Neil,” Rob murmured. “Please. I need you in me now. Remind me I’m yours.”
Tempting offer, but Neil couldn’t rush this. Oh, he had every intention of fucking Rob until Rob could barely walk in the morning. Knowing Rob would only beg him for more made it hard to hang onto his control. He pinched Rob’s left nipple until the bud hardened and Rob bucked underneath him.
“I’m not done with you,” Neil said. “Stay still while I enjoy you.”
Neil began making a path of kisses from neck to hip.
“God, I missed this,” Rob murmured.
Neil planted a kiss on the tip of Rob’s dick. “I missed you too, baby. Badly.”
Planting his hands over Rob’s thighs, he kept them apart so he could put his mouth and tongue to work.
