I. Afternoon Delight
Slater's House | Afternoon
Brandon woke slowly.
The first thing he registered was the dull, throbbing ache across the left side of his face — the split lip, the swollen eye, the deep bruise along his jaw that still felt hot under the skin. The second thing he registered was the empty space beside him.
His hand moved across the sheets on instinct, searching for the familiar warmth of Mackie’s body. Cool fabric met his palm instead. Brandon’s eyes opened fully. The bedroom was filled with soft morning light filtering through the half-drawn curtains. Dust motes floated in the golden beams. The pillow still held the faint indentation of Mackie’s head, and the sheets still carried the scent of him — clean skin, the leftover trace of last night’s tears, and that quiet, steady warmth that always made Brandon’s chest tighten.
But Mackie wasn’t there.
Brandon sat up carefully, wincing as his ribs protested. He listened.
The sound of running water reached him from the master bathroom.
He pushed the covers back and stood, still naked from the night before. His body felt heavy, used, and sore in places that had nothing to do with sex. He crossed the bedroom on quiet feet and stopped in the open doorway of the bathroom.
Steam drifted in soft clouds. The air was warm and humid, scented with the familiar citrus-and-sandalwood body wash they both used. And there, bent over the large freestanding tub, was Mackie.
Mackie was naked, one knee braced on the edge of the tub, both hands working under the running faucet as he mixed a thick stream of body wash into the rising water. His back was arched just slightly. The elegant line of his spine led down to the soft curve of his ass, lifted and presented by the angle of his body. Water beaded along his skin. His light brown hair was still messy from sleep, falling into his eyes as he concentrated on the temperature.
Brandon’s breath left him in a slow, quiet exhale.
Even after seven years, even after everything that had happened the night before — the gun, the blood, the way Mackie had sobbed against his chest — the sight of his husband like this still hit him with the force of a physical blow. Mackie looked soft. Vulnerable. Beautiful in a way that made Brandon’s bruised chest ache for entirely different reasons.
God, he’s perfect, Brandon thought. Even when the world is falling apart around us, he still looks like this. Like something I don’t deserve but somehow get to keep.
Mackie must have felt the weight of his gaze. He glanced over his shoulder, and the moment their eyes met, a small, sleepy smile curved his mouth.
“Good morning,” Mackie said, voice still rough from sleep and from crying the night before.
Brandon leaned against the doorframe, arms crossed loosely over his bare chest. The movement pulled at the bruises, but he ignored it.
“Morning, baby.” His voice came out low and gravelly. “You left me.”
“I was drawing us a bath.” Mackie turned the water down to a gentle stream and straightened, completely unselfconscious in his nakedness. His eyes moved over Brandon’s face, cataloguing every mark. “Your lip looks worse in the daylight. And you reek of sweat and… hotness. Come here. I’ll clean everything properly once you’re in the water.”
Brandon’s mouth twitched despite the pull of the split lip. “Hotness?”
“You heard me.” Mackie arched a brow, though the effect was softened by the faint redness still lingering around his eyes. “Don’t just stand there looking like a wounded action hero. Get in.”
Brandon pushed off the doorframe and walked toward him. When he was close enough, he reached out and brushed a damp strand of hair away from Mackie’s forehead with careful fingers.
“How’s Atty. Mackenzie Taylor Slater doing this morning?” he asked, voice dropping into that warm, teasing register he reserved only for his husband.
Mackie gave him a flat look that didn’t quite hide the fondness underneath. “Don’t you start sweet-talking me with my full government name before I’ve even had coffee. Get in the tub, Brandon.”
Brandon’s smile widened, even though it hurt.
Mackie kept going, softer now. “How are we supposed to have a kid if their Dada is too busy getting into fistfights and not cooperating with basic hygiene?”
Brandon went still for half a second. Then a real, genuine smile broke across his bruised face.
“So my baby wants a child now?” he murmured, stepping closer until their chests nearly touched. “Officially?”
Mackie’s cheeks pinked, but he didn’t look away. “I’ve been thinking about it. Especially after last night. I keep… I keep thinking about the life I want with you. The one that doesn’t include guns and blood on the floor.” He reached up and gently touched the uninjured side of Brandon’s jaw. “Now get in the water before it gets cold.”
Brandon obeyed.
He stepped into the large tub and sank down with a low hiss as the hot water met his sore muscles and open cuts. The water rose around his chest. He leaned back against the curved edge, long legs stretched out, and looked up at Mackie through the steam.
That look.
Mackie knew it immediately. The quiet, heavy-lidded, completely open look Brandon only ever gave him — the one that said I want you close without needing a single word.
Mackie exhaled a soft laugh. “I know that face.”
“Do you?”
“Mm. You’re doing the big-guy-beautiful-eyes thing. It’s unfair. You’re literally twice my size and somehow you still manage to look like a kicked puppy when you want something.”
Brandon didn’t deny it. He just kept looking at him, blue eyes soft and steady despite the swelling.
Mackie held out for another three seconds before his shoulders dropped in surrender.
“Okay,” he said. “But I get to ask for something afterward.”
“Anything.”
Mackie stepped into the tub.
The moment his foot hit the water, Brandon’s hands were on him — large, careful, and immediate. He pulled Mackie down so that Mackie’s back rested against his chest, legs fitting between Brandon’s, the warm water closing over both of them. Brandon’s arms wrapped fully around Mackie’s waist, holding him flush. He pressed his face into the side of Mackie’s neck and just breathed him in for a long moment.
They stayed like that, quiet, while the water lapped gently around them.
Brandon was the first to speak, lips brushing Mackie’s shoulder.
“How are you really feeling?” he asked quietly.
Mackie let his head fall back against Brandon’s shoulder. “Tired. Still shaky when I think about the gun. But also… lighter, somehow. Like I’ve been carrying that secret for so long that telling you finally let me put it down.” He turned his face slightly so he could see Brandon’s profile. “What about you?”
Brandon’s arms tightened.
“I’m sorry,” he said, the words rough. “I’m so fucking sorry for scaring you last night. For the gun. For the way I lost it. I keep seeing your face when you were begging me to stop, and it makes me sick. I never want to be the reason you look like that again.” He pressed a slow kiss to the top of Mackie’s shoulder. “I just… I love you so much it makes me stupid sometimes. The thought of anyone hurting you — especially like that — turns something off in my brain. But that’s not an excuse. You deserved better than watching me almost throw everything away.”
Mackie reached up and laced their fingers together over his own stomach.
“I’m sorry too,” he whispered. “For keeping it from you. For being so scared you’d look at me differently. I should have trusted you sooner.” He squeezed Brandon’s hand. “But Brandon… no matter how hard you rage, no matter where it takes you or who it scares — I will always be your calm. That’s not changing. Even when you’re at your worst, I’m still choosing you.”
Brandon made a low, wounded sound and buried his face deeper into Mackie’s neck.
His hands began to move.
Slowly. Tenderly. Nothing like the desperate, angry energy of the night before. One palm slid up Mackie’s wet chest, mapping the soft planes of muscle and skin with deliberate care. The other stayed low, resting over Mackie’s hip, thumb stroking absently.
“Can I touch you?” Brandon asked against his skin, voice barely above a whisper. “Properly. I want to… I need to remind myself you’re here and safe. But only if you want it. After everything—”
“Yes,” Mackie said immediately. “Yes, Brandon. Please.”
Brandon exhaled like he’d been holding his breath.
He began to worship him.
His mouth opened against the side of Mackie’s neck, kissing slowly, then lower along the curve of his shoulder. His hands mapped every inch of skin he could reach — the lines of Mackie’s ribs, the soft give of his stomach, the insides of his thighs beneath the water. Every touch was unhurried, reverent, as if he were trying to memorize him all over again.
Mackie turned his head. Their mouths met in a slow, deep kiss that tasted of morning and relief and something quieter than lust. Brandon’s split lip pulled, but he didn’t care. He kissed Mackie like the world had narrowed to the heat of his mouth and the feel of his body floating against him.
Mackie’s hand slid backward under the water.
His fingers wrapped around Brandon’s cock.
Brandon’s entire body jerked. A deep, rough growl rumbled out of his chest and vibrated against Mackie’s back. His cock was already thick and heavy in the warm water, the head flushed and sensitive. Mackie’s smaller hand stroked him slowly from root to tip, thumb sweeping over the slit where precome was already beading and mixing with the bathwater.
“Fuck—” Brandon’s head dropped forward against Mackie’s shoulder. “Baby…”
Mackie kept the rhythm unhurried, squeezing gently on every upward stroke, feeling the thick vein that ran along the underside pulse against his palm. Brandon’s cock was long and heavy, the skin silk-soft over the rigid heat beneath, the head flaring thickly every time Mackie’s fingers circled it. Precome continued to leak in steady pulses, making the slide of Mackie’s hand effortless and filthy even underwater.
Brandon’s hips twitched upward into the touch. Low, broken moans kept spilling from his throat — deep, helpless sounds he only ever made for Mackie.
Mackie turned in his arms, water cascading off his body, until he was straddling Brandon’s lap and facing him fully. He never let go of Brandon’s cock. He stroked him more firmly now, watching every flicker of pleasure and pain that crossed Brandon’s bruised face.
Then he leaned in and kissed him again, slow and deep, while his hand continued its steady, devastating rhythm on Brandon’s leaking cock.
When he pulled back just enough to speak, his lips were still brushing Brandon’s.
“What are you thinking right now?” Mackie whispered.
Brandon’s blue eyes — one of them still swollen — locked onto his with complete, unguarded honesty.
“You,” he answered, voice wrecked. “Just you.”
II. Afternoon Heat
Mackie sat astride Brandon’s lap in the wide tub, knees pressed to the porcelain on either side of Brandon’s hips. His smaller hand worked Brandon’s cock in long, deliberate strokes beneath the water. Every upward slide made the thick shaft flex hard against his palm. Every downward stroke dragged the swollen head through the circle of his fingers with a wet, filthy sound that echoed softly off the tiles.
Their faces were inches apart.
Mackie’s hazel eyes stayed locked on Brandon’s bruised blue ones, unblinking, hungry, and completely focused. He watched every flicker of pleasure that crossed Brandon’s face the way a man watches a fire he is carefully feeding.
“You’re staring,” Brandon rasped.
Mackie’s mouth curved. His voice dropped into that low, honeyed register he only used when he wanted something specific.
“I’m looking at my husband while I stroke his cock. Is that a problem?”
Brandon’s laugh came out broken. “No. Keep looking.”
Mackie’s hand tightened just a little. The thick vein that ran along the underside of Brandon’s cock pulsed hard against his fingers. Precome continued to leak in steady, clear pulses, clouding the water between them.
Mackie leaned in until his lips brushed the shell of Brandon’s ear.
“Are you thinking about it?” he asked, voice pure seduction. “Not Aaron. Not Noah. Not the gun. Last night. With Eun Yoo.”
Brandon’s hips jerked.
Mackie’s hand never stopped moving.
“Tell me,” Mackie whispered. “I can feel how hard you are. I can feel how much it’s affecting you just from me saying his name. So tell me the truth, Brandon. Are you thinking about fucking him?”
Brandon’s head fell back against the rim of the tub for a second. His throat worked. When he looked at Mackie again, his eyes were almost black.
“Yes,” he admitted, voice rough. “I’ve been thinking about it since I woke up. The way he took me. How tight he was. How he kept saying he didn’t want me to stop even when he was shaking. How he looked when I came inside him.” His breath hitched as Mackie’s thumb swept over the sensitive head. “Fuck… baby, the way you’re looking at me right now is dangerous.”
Mackie smirked.
He stroked faster.
Brandon’s cock throbbed heavily in his fist, the head flaring darker, the slit opening and closing with every pulse of precome. Mackie watched it with open hunger, then slowed his hand to an almost cruel crawl, dragging his palm from base to tip with exquisite pressure.
Brandon groaned, low and helpless.
Mackie gathered the thick bead of precome that had welled up on the tip with his thumb, lifted his hand out of the water, and brought it to his mouth. He locked eyes with Brandon and licked it off slowly — tongue flat, deliberate, tasting his husband while Brandon watched every second of it.
“Jesus Christ, Mackie—”
Mackie returned his hand to Brandon’s cock and resumed the slow, devastating rhythm.
Brandon’s breathing had gone ragged. His hands gripped Mackie’s hips hard enough to leave faint marks. The words came out between heavy pants and broken moans, like they were being pulled from him against his will.
“This morning…” he managed. “While you were asleep… Eun Yoo came home. He found me in the kitchen cleaning these cuts. He offered to help. We started talking about last night and it… it turned into more.”
Mackie’s hand stilled completely.
Brandon’s eyes flew open. Panic flickered across his bruised face. He reached for Mackie immediately, large hands framing his waist.
“Baby— look at me. I’m sorry. I should’ve woken you. I should’ve—”
Mackie’s expression was unreadable for one long, suspended second.
Then he spoke, voice soft and lethal.
“I’m not mad that you did it.”
Brandon froze.
Mackie’s eyes were dark with pure, unmistakable lust — the same look he got when he was deep in his cuckold headspace, when the idea of Brandon with someone else made him hard and aching and greedy.
“I’m mad,” Mackie continued, “that you stopped.”
He wrapped his hand around Brandon’s cock again and stroked him firmly, twisting his wrist on every upward pull. Brandon’s entire body jerked. A thick pulse of precome spilled over Mackie’s fingers.
“You had him right there,” Mackie whispered against Brandon’s mouth. “You had him wanting you, and you stopped because of me. That’s sweet. That’s loyal. And it’s also the most frustrating thing you’ve ever done.”
Brandon made a broken sound and dragged Mackie into a deep, filthy kiss. Their tongues met in wet heat while Mackie’s hand kept working him — faster now, the water splashing softly with every stroke. Brandon’s cock felt enormous in Mackie’s grip: heavy, throbbing, the head so swollen and sensitive that every pass of Mackie’s thumb over the slit made Brandon’s thighs tremble.
Mackie pulled back just enough to speak, lips still brushing Brandon’s.
“Tell me what it felt like,” he demanded quietly. “Doing it with him when I wasn’t there. What were you feeling?”
Brandon’s voice came out wrecked.
“Like I was taking something that belonged to both of us without asking. Guilty. Hungry. So fucking hard it hurt. He kept looking at me like he wanted me to ruin him all over again, and part of me wanted to. Part of me still wants to.”
Mackie’s hand tightened.
“Do you want to continue it?” he asked. “Be honest.”
Brandon held his gaze for a long moment, breathing hard.
“Yes,” he said. The word came out raw. “I do.”
Mackie’s eyes flashed with dark satisfaction.
“Faster,” Brandon rasped. “Baby, go faster— I’m close—”
Mackie obeyed.
His hand flew over Brandon’s cock in tight, rapid strokes, water and precome making the slide obscenely wet. Brandon’s head dropped forward against Mackie’s shoulder. His hips thrust up into the fist with helpless, shallow movements. The thick shaft pulsed hard, the head flaring, balls drawing up tight.
“I’m gonna come—” Brandon choked out. “Mackie, fuck, I’m—”
Mackie stopped.
He gripped the base of Brandon’s cock in a tight, unyielding fist and squeezed, cutting off the orgasm with ruthless precision. Brandon’s entire body seized. A broken, almost angry groan tore out of him as the climax was forced back down. His cock throbbed violently in Mackie’s hand, leaking heavily, the head dark and desperate.
Mackie held him like that, waiting until the worst of the urgency had been denied.
Then he leaned in, kissed the corner of Brandon’s trembling mouth, and spoke in a soft, filthy voice that left no room for argument.
“You’re not allowed to come yet.”
Brandon’s eyes were glassy.
Mackie stroked him once, slowly, from base to tip, just to watch him shudder.
“You’re going to get out of this tub,” Mackie continued, “and you’re going to go find Eun Yoo. You’re going to apologize for stopping this morning. And then you’re going to fuck him. Properly. You’re going to put him on his back or on his knees or however you want him, and you’re going to bury this cock inside him and breed him.” His hand gave Brandon’s throbbing length a possessive squeeze. “I want you to fill him up until it’s dripping out of him. I want you to impregnate him with everything you just tried to give me.”
Brandon’s breath left him in a shattered sound.
Mackie kissed him one more time — slow, deep, and full of promise — then released his cock and sat back slightly, water cascading down his chest.
“Go,” he whispered. “Before I change my mind and finish you myself.”
III. Eun Yoo’s Room
Brandon walked the short hallway like a man approaching something inevitable.
Afternoon light slanted through the high windows, painting long rectangles across the hardwood. His bare feet made almost no sound. Water still clung to his skin in scattered beads that traced the lines of his chest and the deep cuts of his abs before disappearing into the waistband of the dark shorts he had pulled on. The fabric did almost nothing to hide what Mackie had left him with.
His cock was still brutally hard.
Nine thick, cut inches strained against the front of the shorts, the heavy shaft trapped at an angle that made every step a low, aching reminder. The head was swollen and dark, still slick from the bath and from Mackie’s hand. Every pulse sent a fresh throb through him. The denial Mackie had forced on him sat low in his gut like a live coal. His balls felt tight and full. His thighs flexed with the effort of simply walking in a straight line.
His face hurt. The split lip pulled every time he breathed through his mouth. The bruise along his jaw throbbed in time with his heartbeat. None of it mattered.
He was doing this for Mackie.
That was the clearest thought in his head.
He had read something once — an article or a chapter in one of the quiet psychology books Mackie sometimes left on the nightstand — about how the body could be used to rewrite memory. How giving someone repeated, overwhelming experiences of wanted pleasure could begin to loosen the grip of older pain. How agency and desire, freely given and freely taken, could become a kind of medicine. He had not fully understood it at the time. He thought he might understand it now.
Eun Yoo had been through too much in too short a time. His grandfather. The guild. The blackmail. The threesome that had been both wanted and overwhelming. The violence of the previous night. If Mackie believed that sending Brandon to him — to finish what had been started, to fill him, to give him something purely physical and chosen — would help, then Brandon would do it.
That did not mean he wasn’t also hard because of Eun Yoo himself.
There was no point lying about that anymore.
The innocence still left in Eun Yoo’s eyes, the way he looked at Brandon like he was something solid and dangerous and desired all at once, the memory of how tightly he had taken him the night before — all of it lived under Brandon’s skin. He was attracted. Deeply. But the reason he was walking this hallway with his cock aching and his heart steady was the man who had edged him in the bathtub and then told him exactly what to do.
He stopped in front of the door that no longer felt like a guest-room door.
Eun Yoo’s room.
Brandon closed his eyes for a second and breathed in slowly through his nose. The air still carried the faint scent of the bath — citrus, sandalwood, sex. He reached down, adjusted himself with a wince, and forced the heavy length of his cock into a slightly less obvious position against his thigh. It barely helped.
Then he knocked.
From the other side of the door, Eun Yoo’s voice came immediately, bright with expectation.
“Come in, Mackie hyung—”
The door opened under Brandon’s hand.
Eun Yoo was half-turned from his desk, still speaking the name, when he saw who had actually entered. The rest of the sentence died.
For a long moment neither of them moved.
Eun Yoo’s eyes traveled over Brandon in one slow, helpless sweep — the wet dark hair, the bruised face, the bare chest still beaded with water, the heavy muscles of his shoulders and arms, the obvious, thick ridge trapped inside the dark shorts. The memory of the kitchen that morning rose between them like heat: Brandon’s mouth on his, the taste of blood and want, the way Brandon had pushed him away at the last second.
Brandon stepped fully inside and closed the door behind him with a quiet click.
“It’s me,” he said. His voice came out lower than usual. “Disappointed it’s not Mackie?”
Eun Yoo’s throat moved as he swallowed. His gaze flicked back up to Brandon’s eyes and stayed there.
“No,” he answered, soft and honest. “Not at all.”
The sexual tension in the room was immediate and thick enough to touch. Brandon could see the way Eun Yoo’s breathing had changed. He could see the faint flush rising along the younger man’s neck.
Eun Yoo gestured vaguely toward the open laptop on the desk, as if he needed something ordinary to hold onto.
“I was studying. I was actually about to come find you both. The awarding ceremony for the design showcase — they rescheduled it. It’s next Monday now instead of this week.” His voice stayed even, but his eyes kept drifting down Brandon’s body and then forcing themselves back up. “I wanted to tell you.”
Brandon nodded once. He stayed near the door for another second, giving Eun Yoo the chance to look his fill. Then go inside and sit on the study chair.
“It’s fine,” he said. “My face still looks like shit anyway. Wouldn’t be a good look for your guardian to show up like this.”
A small, almost shy smile touched Eun Yoo’s mouth. Then the smile faded into something more knowing. He set the pen he had been holding down on the desk with deliberate care, stood, and walked toward Brandon.
The slow burn of it was deliberate.
Eun Yoo stopped directly in front of him. Close enough that Brandon could smell the clean scent of his skin and the faint trace of whatever soap he had used that morning. Close enough that the heat of his body reached Brandon’s bare chest.
Eun Yoo lifted one hand and touched the uninjured side of Brandon’s face first, fingertips light. Then he traced the edge of the bruise along Brandon’s jaw with almost painful gentleness, careful of the split lip, careful of every place that still hurt.
“Does it still hurt a lot?” he asked quietly.
“Yes.”
Eun Yoo’s eyes lifted to his.
Then, slowly, he stepped even closer, turned, and sat down on Brandon’s lap as if it were the most natural thing in the world — thighs spreading over Brandon’s, weight settling fully, the curve of his ass pressing directly against the hard, trapped length of Brandon’s cock.
Brandon’s hands went to Eun Yoo’s hips on pure instinct, large palms spanning the narrow waist, fingers spreading.
Eun Yoo rested his hands on Brandon’s bare chest, feeling the solid muscle and the steady, heavy beat of his heart. He shifted once, a slow, testing grind that dragged the cleft of his ass along the thick ridge inside Brandon’s shorts.
Brandon’s breath left him in a controlled exhale. His fingers tightened on Eun Yoo’s hips, but he did not pull him closer. Not yet.
Eun Yoo leaned in until his mouth was close to Brandon’s ear, still rolling his hips in that same unhurried, devastating rhythm.
“Why are you really here, hyung?” he whispered.
Brandon’s voice came out rough.
“Mackie sent me.”
Eun Yoo’s hands slid slowly over the planes of Brandon’s chest, thumbs brushing across his nipples. He ground down again, more deliberately this time, and made a soft sound when he felt the full, heavy thickness of Brandon’s cock jump beneath him.
“I can feel how hard you are,” Eun Yoo murmured against his skin. “You’re throbbing. Did he edge you before he sent you to me?”
Brandon’s jaw flexed. He kept his hands on Eun Yoo’s hips, guiding the slow grind without taking control of it yet, letting the younger man set the pace while his own body strained with the effort of not reacting too hard.
“Yes,” he answered. “He did.”
Eun Yoo’s breath hitched. He rolled his hips again, slower, longer, dragging the full length of Brandon’s trapped cock between his cheeks through the thin layers of fabric. His fingers spread over Brandon’s pecs, feeling the way the muscle tightened under his palms.
“And what did he tell you to do when you got here?” Eun Yoo asked, voice quiet and dark with curiosity.
Brandon’s hands flexed on his hips. The split lip pulled as he spoke.
“He told me to apologize for stopping this morning,” he said. “And then he told me to fuck you. Properly. To fill you up.”
Eun Yoo’s forehead dropped against Brandon’s for a second. A soft, shaky sound left him. He kept grinding — small, circular movements now that kept the head of Brandon’s cock dragging against the most sensitive part of him through the clothes.
“Are you going to?” Eun Yoo whispered.
Brandon’s answer came out low and certain, even as his body trembled once with the effort of restraint.
“Yes.”
He slid his hands from Eun Yoo’s hips to the small of his back, then lower, cupping the curve of his ass and guiding the next slow grind with more purpose. Their eyes stayed locked. The air between them felt charged enough to spark.
Eun Yoo’s fingers curled against Brandon’s chest.
“Then stop holding back,” he said softly. “I can feel how much you want to.”
Brandon’s control frayed another inch.
His hands tightened, and the next roll of Eun Yoo’s hips was met with a deliberate upward push of his own, letting the younger man feel every thick, aching inch he had been denied in the bathtub. A low sound rumbled out of Brandon’s chest — half growl, half surrender.
“I am,” he muttered against Eun Yoo’s mouth. “I’m right here.”
IV. Four Fingers
The chair creaked softly under their combined weight.
Eun Yoo remained settled in Brandon’s lap, thighs spread wide over the older man’s, the hard, thick length of Brandon’s cock trapped between them and grinding up against him with every small shift. The air in the room felt heavier now — warm, charged, thick with the scent of clean skin, leftover bathwater, and the unmistakable musk of arousal.
Eun Yoo’s hands stayed on Brandon’s bare chest, fingers spread over the solid muscle. He could feel every controlled breath Brandon took, the way the big body beneath him stayed deliberately restrained even while the cock pressed against him throbbed with obvious need.
For a long moment they only looked at each other.
Then Eun Yoo’s voice came out small and a little shy, the words almost hesitant despite the way he was still slowly rolling his hips.
“Hyung… can you kiss me?”
Brandon’s mouth curved. The split in his lip pulled, but the expression was pure, dark amusement mixed with heat.
“You want a kiss?” he asked, voice low and rough. His hands flexed on Eun Yoo’s ass, guiding another slow grind that made the younger man exhale sharply. “After everything we already did last night, after you sat on my cock and asked me why I came to your room… now you’re asking permission for a kiss?”
Eun Yoo’s ears turned pink, but he didn’t look away.
“Yes.”
Brandon leaned in until their mouths were almost touching, close enough that Eun Yoo could feel the warmth of his breath.
“Then take it,” he murmured.
Eun Yoo closed the last inch.
The first press of their lips was soft — almost careful. Brandon let him set the initial pace, mouth moving gently against his, tasting, testing. Eun Yoo made a quiet sound and leaned in harder. The kiss deepened by degrees. Brandon’s hand came up to cup the back of Eun Yoo’s neck, angling him the way he wanted, and then the softness burned away.
The kiss turned hungry.
Tongues met in wet, sliding heat. Brandon kissed him like he had all afternoon and intended to use every minute of it — deep, thorough, claiming. Saliva gathered at the corners of their mouths. When Brandon tilted his head and sucked on Eun Yoo’s tongue, a thin string of spit connected them for a second before breaking. Eun Yoo whimpered into his mouth and ground down harder, the thick ridge of Brandon’s cock dragging against him through the layers of clothing.
Brandon pulled back just enough to breathe. A glistening streak of saliva shone at the corner of his mouth and along his lower lip.
Eun Yoo stared at it.
Then he leaned in and licked it away — slow, deliberate, tongue dragging over the split in Brandon’s lip and the wetness there. Brandon’s entire body tensed. A low, rough sound rumbled out of his chest.
“Fuck,” he muttered against Eun Yoo’s mouth. “You’re full of surprises.”
His hand slid up into Eun Yoo’s hair and closed into a fist. He pulled — not violently, but firmly enough that Eun Yoo’s head tilted back, throat exposed, scalp prickling with that perfect edge of pleasure-pain. Eun Yoo’s eyes fluttered. A soft, broken moan left him.
Brandon kept him there for a second, looking down at the younger man’s flushed face, before claiming his mouth again in a harder, wetter kiss.
While they kissed, Brandon’s free hand moved.
He brought two fingers to Eun Yoo’s lips and pressed them there without breaking the kiss entirely.
“Open,” he ordered against his mouth. “Suck.”
Eun Yoo obeyed. His lips closed around the thick fingers, tongue swirling, getting them wet. Brandon watched him do it from inches away, eyes dark, while Eun Yoo sucked and licked like he was being graded on it. When the fingers were glistening, Brandon pulled them free with a soft wet sound.
He reached between them, worked Eun Yoo’s soft shorts and underwear down just enough, and then those same fingers — warm, slick with spit — pressed against Eun Yoo’s entrance.
Eun Yoo’s breath hitched hard into Brandon’s mouth.
Brandon pushed the first finger in slowly, steadily, until it was buried to the knuckle. He kept kissing him through it, swallowing every small sound Eun Yoo made. The second finger followed after only a short pause, stretching him open with deliberate care. Eun Yoo’s hips jerked. Brandon’s other hand stayed fisted in his hair, holding him in place for the kiss while his fingers worked deeper.
“That’s it,” Brandon murmured against his lips, voice low and filthy in a way that felt new. “Open up for me like you did last night. Your body’s already remembering how to take me. Feel that? That’s just two. I’m going to give you more until you’re dripping and desperate for the real thing.”
Eun Yoo moaned into his mouth, the sound vibrating between them.
Brandon scissored his fingers slowly, then curled them, searching. When he found the spot that made Eun Yoo’s whole body jolt, he stroked it with focused pressure.
“There it is,” he said, almost conversational, while Eun Yoo trembled in his lap. “That’s the place that makes you forget how to talk. I’m going to keep pressing it until you can’t think about anything else except how empty you feel when my fingers aren’t inside you.”
They stayed like that for long minutes — kissing wetly, grinding, Brandon’s fingers moving in steady, relentless strokes. Eventually Brandon added a third finger. Eun Yoo’s head dropped to Brandon’s shoulder for a moment, panting, before Brandon pulled his hair again and brought their mouths back together.
When Brandon finally pushed the fourth finger in, slow and careful but unyielding, Eun Yoo broke the kiss with a sharp, high sound.
They stared at each other.
Brandon’s fingers were buried deep, stretching him wide, the knuckles pressed against him. Eun Yoo’s eyes were glassy, lips swollen and shiny with shared saliva. Brandon took Eun Yoo’s hand and placed it firmly over his own bare chest, right above his heart and the hard peak of his nipple.
“Touch me,” he ordered quietly. “While I do this to you.”
Eun Yoo’s fingers curled. He pinched Brandon’s nipple — tentative at first, then harder when Brandon’s cock throbbed heavily against him in response. His other hand roamed the solid planes of Brandon’s chest, feeling the muscle jump under his palm every time Brandon’s fingers pressed that perfect spot inside him.
Brandon’s voice dropped even lower, rough with restraint and heat.
“Listen to me,” he said, fingers working faster now, four thick digits thrusting with wet, filthy sounds. “You belong to this house now. To Mackie. To me. When I put my fingers in you, when I put my cock in you, you’re not thinking about the guild or the past or anything that tried to break you. You’re thinking about who you open for. Say it.”
Eun Yoo’s breath came in short, broken pulls. His fingers tightened on Brandon’s chest, pinching and rubbing the nipple in time with the thrusts inside him.
“I— I belong to you,” he gasped. “To both of you—”
“That’s right.” Brandon’s free hand stayed locked in his hair, keeping their faces close, eyes locked. “And right now you’re going to come on my fingers like a good boy before I give you what you actually need.”
He curled all four fingers and rubbed hard, relentless, against the spot that made Eun Yoo’s vision white out.
Eun Yoo’s entire body went rigid.
“AHHHH!”
The moan that tore out of him was loud — sudden, raw, and completely unrestrained. His back arched. His thighs clamped around Brandon’s hips. He came hard, untouched, cock pulsing inside his remaining clothes as the orgasm crashed through him in violent waves. His hole clenched and fluttered around Brandon’s fingers in tight, rhythmic spasms. He kept making broken, overwhelmed sounds while his body shook through it, forehead dropped against Brandon’s, completely lost.
Brandon watched him with dark, stunned arousal, fingers still buried deep, feeling every pulse of the climax from the inside.
“Jesus,” he muttered, almost to himself. “You just came from my fingers alone.”
He didn’t give Eun Yoo time to recover.
He pulled him into another deep, claiming kiss, and while Eun Yoo was still trembling and open-mouthed, Brandon spat directly onto his tongue — a thick, deliberate strand of saliva. Eun Yoo moaned weakly and accepted it, swallowing what he was given while Brandon’s fingers stayed deep inside him, gentling now but not leaving.
Brandon’s cock throbbed almost painfully against him, still hard, still denied, still exactly where Mackie had sent him to be.
He kissed the corner of Eun Yoo’s open mouth and spoke against it, voice low and rough with promise.
“We’re not done.”
V. Look at Me
Eun Yoo was still trembling.
His orgasm had left him oversensitive, skin flushed, thighs shaking where they straddled Brandon’s lap. Brandon’s four fingers remained buried inside him, gentler now but still present, still stretching him open. The younger man’s cock — slender, flushed, and glistening — twitched helplessly against his own stomach, still leaking from the climax that had taken him by surprise.
Brandon did not give him time to recover.
He wrapped his free hand around Eun Yoo’s sensitive cock and stroked.
The first slow pull drew a sharp, broken sound from Eun Yoo’s throat. His hips jerked. His hands flew to Brandon’s wrists.
“Hyung— wait— it’s too much—”
Brandon ignored him.
He stroked again, firmer, thumb sweeping over the wet head with deliberate pressure. Eun Yoo’s entire body jolted. A high, desperate whimper spilled out of him as overstimulation lit up every nerve.
“Please,” Eun Yoo begged, voice cracking. “It’s sensitive— I just came— Brandon, please—”
Brandon’s eyes stayed locked on his face, dark and focused. He kept the rhythm steady and merciless, working the oversensitive length while his fingers inside Eun Yoo pressed that same devastating spot in slow circles. Eun Yoo’s begging dissolved into broken, continuous sounds — half protest, half helpless arousal. His cock twitched and leaked in Brandon’s fist even as he tried to twist away from the intensity.
“You’re still hard,” Brandon observed quietly, almost wonderingly. “Even while you’re begging me to stop, you’re leaking all over my hand.”
Eun Yoo’s face burned. Tears of overstimulation gathered at the corners of his eyes, but his hips kept making tiny, involuntary movements into Brandon’s grip.
Brandon finally released him after another long, cruel minute. Eun Yoo sagged forward against his chest, panting, completely wrecked.
Brandon’s own cock was a heavy, urgent presence between them.
It was nine inches long — straight, heavy, and impossibly thick. The shaft was thick enough that fingers would barely meet if anyone tried to wrap a hand fully around it. Prominent veins pulsed along the length, and the head was flushed a deep, angry red, already leaking a steady stream of clear precum that had soaked a dark patch through the front of his shorts. His balls hung full and heavy beneath it, drawn tight with the need Mackie had denied him in the bathtub and that had only grown worse while he fingered Eun Yoo to orgasm.
Eun Yoo’s gaze dropped to it. He swallowed hard.
“Can I… suck you?” he asked, voice still shaky. “I’ll do better this time. I promise. Please let me.”
Brandon’s mouth curved. He reached up and brushed damp hair away from Eun Yoo’s forehead with surprising gentleness.
“You want it that badly?” he asked, low and teasing. “Even after I just made you come on my fingers and then kept stroking you while you begged me to stop?”
