."I want you to spend the day with me tomorrow.After our shift, spend the day at my house.Will you do that?"Ari got the feeling that wasn’t what he had originally planned on saying, but he let it go."Mmm, yes.I’d like that." At least they wouldn’t have to worry about Io or anyone else stopping by unexpectedly if they were at Sev's."So would I."He opened his eyes again.Sev’s long hair hung in sweaty, damp tendrils over his face and down his neck past his shoulders.Tonight, he had used that hair like a horse’s mane, pulling, yanking, directing Sev’s head where he wanted it.And true to his word, Sev had loved it.He'd cried out with pleasure, begged him to pull harder, and pleaded with him to be rough and not hold back.Both of them were marked with love bites and bruises worthy of battle, and he smiled softly as he reached up and trailed the tip of his finger over one of the fading black and blue marks on Sev’s chest where he had sucked on his skin."We’re a mess," he said"But in a good way." Sev brushed his hand over Ari's cheek then down to his arm.He nodded."A very good way."Sev’s fingers traced the lines of his tattoo sleeve.Up, down, around.Ari had already learned Sev’s nuances enough to know he wanted to take him again.It was in the way his gaze followed his fingers down the pattern on his arm and the quiet purr deep in his chest.And Sev hadn't finished during their latest bout of orgasmic pyrotechnics, so he probably needed the release."Yes," Ari said.Sev's gaze flicked to his."Yes, what?""Yes, I want you to make love to me again." Hell, he was ready to go again himself.This was insane.Where was this incredible sex drive coming from?The corners of Sev's mouth curled upward."You're not too tired?"Ari shook his head."No.""We've been at it all night, babe.I thought you'd need a break.""That's okay.Like I said, I'm making up for lost time.Besides, you drive me wild."Sev tenderly pushed him to his back as he rolled with him and settled on top."You're driving me crazy, Ari.""I can't get enough of you." He pushed his hands through Sev's hair as the other male pushed his legs open and pressed the head of his erection against him.Could they just stay in bed for the rest of the month? Ari really wanted to stay in bed with Sev for a few weeks.At a minimum."Me, neither." Sev drove forward and dove inside Ari in one fluid thrust."Oh, God, yes," he said, gripping Sev’s shoulders.Yes, just one more time and then they could sleep.Maybe.CHAPTER TWELVEThe next night, Lakota woke up just after sunset and opened the curtains then the blinds and looked south over the Chicago River.He already liked it here and couldn’t wait to buy a place.His son’s reaction, on the other hand…well that was another story.The last time – the only time – he had seen Severin, they had almost killed each other.In a way, he was proud of how hard Sev had fought him.The boy was strong and lethal.Well, Sev wasn’t a boy anymore.He was a mature male, now.An adult.Was Sev mated? Did he have a wife? Children of his own? Felice had only told him Sev was an enforcer, but hadn't elaborated on personal details, so Lakota could only guess what Sev’s life was like now.Did Sev ever think about him? Probably not.But then, if he was in Sev’s shoes, he wouldn't think about him, either.Who would entertain thoughts of a father who raped his mother, gave her a child, and took off?He had been such a bastard.But the love of a human had changed him, and he would be forever grateful to Mary for opening his eyes.He still missed Mary, his beloved wife who he had cherished with all his heart.She had shown him so much love and had opened his heart to how awful he had once been and how good he could be as a person, husband, and father.His cell phone rang and he smiled at the caller ID."Marie? You must have known I was thinking about you."He had insisted their firstborn daughter be named after Mary, because he knew one day Mary would die and he wanted one of their offspring to remind him of her.That day had come six years ago, when Mary passed away at the age of sixty-two, just days after suffering a stroke."Dad? Are you here?"Marie lived on Chicago’s North Side, and her mixed blood had given her an uncanny extrasensory ability [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
