Aidan kissed him again, loving the way their tongues slid against each other in a lazy, lusty slide.

But Lucas had been a bad boy again because Aidan hadn’t given him permission to move.

“Back in position. It’s a count of twenty. If you don’t behave, love, you’re going to find yourself strapped to Trev’s bench and I’ll torture that sweet cock of yours for hours.”

Lucas moved swiftly back to his position, allowing the warm water to coat his body. “Yes, Master.”

Lucas had a little pain slut in him. He needed the play as much as he needed the sex that would inevitably come after. And the water would just prime his skin for that sweet pain.

He needed this and his Master intended to give it to him. He didn’t hold back. Aidan slapped Lucas’s ass hard and was rewarded by a shudder that went through his sub’s body. A long huff came out of Lucas’s chest and his head fell forward.

“Is that what you want, sub?”

“God, yes, Master. Give it to me. Hard. It feels so good.”

Another four hard smacks to Lucas’s flesh. Already a red sheen was coating his flesh. SMACK. SMACK. SMACK. Aidan moved around, spreading the sensation where Lucas’s flesh was the softest. He smacked the bottom of his cheeks, just where his ass met his powerfully built legs. Over and over. He heard Lucas cry out, but that was just another part of the pleasure for his sub. Lucas kept so much inside, hid his pain so well.

He smacked Lucas again, watching tears drip from his sub’s eyes. They were closed. Despite the tears, his face was peaceful, almost worshipful. This was a safe place for his guy. Aidan could take him there.

Another quick five slaps and Aidan’s cock was dying. He needed to get inside Lucas. He needed the connection. “See that you behave.”

“Yes, Master.” His voice was relaxed now, the tension seemingly gone.

But the tension was definitely not gone for Aidan. His whole body was primed and ready to fuck. He reached for the lube he’d grabbed from his shaving kit.

“Turn around,” he commanded.

Lucas did with a happy sigh. He knew the drill. He held his hand out and took the lubricant. “Does my Master need preparation before he fucks his sub?”

He didn’t need anything. He was hard as a rock, but he wasn’t going to shortchange either one of them. “Yes, love. I need some attention. On your knees.”

With a sexy grin on his face, Lucas gracefully dropped to his knees, allowing the shower spray to cover his shoulders. His hair was wet, curling around his ears and falling over his eyes, making him look younger than his years. Aidan slipped his hands into that black silk and pulled his head back, lining Lucas’s mouth up to his straining cock.

Lucas’s tongue came out, swiping at the pre-cum already pulsing from the head.

His cock jumped, desperate for the attention.

Lucas wrapped his hand around the thick stalk of Aidan’s cock, pumping him roughly as he sucked on his cockhead.

Aidan let his eyes drift closed as Lucas worshipped his cock. “Harder. Take more.”

Lucas’s hand disappeared as he swallowed Aidan’s dick. He sucked him in long hard passes, taking him to the root, letting Aidan feel the soft place at the back of his throat.

Aidan guided him, tugging on his hair, making him suck faster. Over and over Lucas sucked him down, pulling back until he almost lost Aidan’s dick, only to deep throat him again.

“Stop.” Aidan couldn’t take another second without giving up his cum, and he didn’t want to do that in Lucas’s mouth. He wanted to be buried in the heat of Lucas’s ass when he blew.

He tugged hard on Lucas’s hair, pulling him off his dick.

Lucas finally gave in after one last swipe of his tongue. “My Master tastes so good.”

“Your Master is hungry.” Starving for him, really. He helped Lucas back up and turned him to the proper position—hands on the wall of the shower, legs spread wide, perfect ass in the air.

Aidan lubed up his straining cock, stroking himself from base to tip. Already he could easily squeeze pre-cum from the tip, the pearly fluid joining the lube, preparing him to take Lucas.

He spread the muscular cheeks of Lucas’s ass, taking a moment to look at his tight asshole. Damn, but he loved the sight of it. Rosy and perfectly formed, it made his cock jump just thinking of how tight it would be.

Lucas gasped a little as Aidan poured lube over the rosette of his ass, his thumb massaging in little circles. Lucas’s asshole puckered at first, but Aidan was patient. He rubbed and added lube and before too long, his thumb gained ground, spreading the slippery stuff where it was needed most.

He pulled his hand out and got between Lucas’s legs, making a place for himself there. Heat washed over him as he lined his cock up.

A low groan came from Lucas’s chest as Aidan started to shove his dick in.

He gripped Lucas’s hips, working his way in. He had to go slow with Lexi. Every single time he fucked her ass he had to be so careful. Not so with Lucas. Lucas pressed back, forcing Aidan’s cock deep into his hole.

Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. It felt so good. Heat enveloped him. Lucas’s asshole squeezed on his cock and he felt the hard nub of a prostate dragging on him.

Lucas’s dark head fell forward and he groaned in pleasure. “Yes, Master. You feel so good. Please fuck me hard. Make me feel it. I want to feel you all day long.”

Aidan knew exactly what he wanted. He wanted to be sore. He wanted that sweet ache that reminded him of how good the sex had been, of how hard they had gone after each other.

He took his clean hand and wound it around Lucas’s waist, gripping his straining cock and squeezing. “I’ll give you everything you want, sub. I’ll give you what you need.”

He pumped into Lucas’s ass as his hand worked over that hard cock.

Lucas fought him, aided him, got him even hotter with every thrust back that took him all the way to his root. He could feel his balls slapping Lucas’s skin even as they tightened up and prepared to shoot off.

The rough sounds of their fucking clashed with the soft beat of the shower, but Aidan reveled in all of it. He loved every hard groan that came from Lucas, every slap of flesh against flesh as he took his guy hard and fast.

The cock in his hand swelled and he knew Lucas was close.

“Come for me, sub. Come all over my hand. I want to feel it.”

“Yes, Master. Yes.” His lean body shuddered as cum started to coat Aidan’s hand.

The feel of that cum on his hand, spurting out of Lucas’s dick made Aidan crazy. He thrust in as deep as he could go and then Lucas tightened his hold, his ass nearly strangling Aidan’s cock.

He couldn’t hold out a second longer. He came in long thrusts, the cum pouring from his cock into his sub. Pleasure coursed through his system, making his eyes roll back, his brain sputter.

He fell onto Lucas, pressing his body against the tile and holding on to him for balance.

Warm water caressed his skin and he cuddled close to his guy.

Lucas turned his head slightly, just enough that Aidan could see that gorgeous shit-eating grin he got when he was really satisfied. “You’re definitely dirty, Master. I think I might need to clean you up again.”

Aidan moved in, kissing that mouth he loved so much. For the moment he could pretend all was right with his world.

* * *

Lexi closed her eyes as the words Aidan had said washed over her. She’d been trying to process them for twenty minutes.

I want to forget about her for two fucking seconds. I don’t want to think about it.

She’d stood outside the bathroom and listened in on them. It wasn’t like she’d followed them. She’d walked into the room trying to find a pen that worked, but she’d been caught by the sound of them kissing, tearing at each other’s clothes, making love.

And dismissing her from their thoughts.

She’d walked back out of the McNamara house without letting them know she’d been there. She’d found her way back to the main house where Jamie, Hope and Noah lived. Where her babies were playing, but she couldn’t get what she’d witnessed out of her head.

Aidan had sounded so tortured, as though he couldn’t stand to think about her for a single second.

He would hate her even more once he found out the truth—that she would be the one to cost him O’Malley Ranch, and it had all been over something stupid.

She had one chance and that was to hope that they held out long enough so she could get her big payday and offer it to help save the ranch. Or to buy new property.

Would he even take it from her? He’d turned her down a hundred times before. It was why she had everything she’d ever made. Aidan wanted to take care of her. Aidan wanted to be responsible.

And now he would find out just how irresponsible she was.

When she’d stood outside the door and listened in, she’d heard a smacking sound, a hand hitting flesh and Lucas’s low groan of pure pleasure. She could still hear it echoing in her mind.

That sound brought about an almost physical memory. She could almost feel their hands, slapping at the fleshy part of her ass, the sting and then the relief that followed, so hot and sweet. When that heat hit her, she could let go. Nothing else mattered in those moments except the sensations, the act of loving them.

Her skin flushed, her vision softening. How long since she’d been in subspace? How long since she’d just floated along without a worry in the world? Lucas would be there soon, but then Lucas hadn’t fucked up the way she had. Lucas wasn’t going to cost them their home.
