I collapsed half on top of him, my breath ragged. Kissing his ear, I squeezed him, eliminating any gaps between our bodies.

“Did I do a good job?”

He reached back, patting me on the thigh. “Good. Very good.”

“Your turn?”

He shook his head. “I’m good. I got what I wanted.” Dustin groaned as he moved his hips. “As much as I’d like to fall asleep with you in me…” We both gasped as my cock slid out of him. “It’d never happen with that beast twitching in my ass.”

I smiled as he wiggled into place. There was no way to get more skin contact if we tried. “Now, maybe you’ll finally get some sleep.”

“Not with that snoring.”

He turned his head. “Hey!”

I kissed him on the cheek. “It’s okay. Just don’t blast a hole in the side of my apartment.”

Dustin chuckled. “No promises.”

Sex. Twice in one night. I’d like to do that again, with Dustin. A lot. As I rested my head on the pillow, breathing in the scent of sweat and satisfaction, my eyes grew heavy. The only good thing about falling asleep would be seeing him first thing in the morning.

“It’s been forty-eight hours,”Arthur said. “I think it’s time to assess the damage.” He squeezed the bridge of his nose, something he did whenever his stress reached critical levels. “Everything about that launch went wrong.”

“Don’t think about it like that, boss.” Drew refused to let Arthur be pessimistic. He’d do his darnedest to cheer him up. “You looked rather dapper.”

“We barely started. The heroes go off to save the city. That makes it look like they can be duped by the app. Then Titan storms in with a grudge. So much insurance paperwork. The building isn’t a month old!”

“When you put it like that…” Drew shrunk back in his chair.

“They’re trying to keep you down,” Orion said.

“Who?” I asked.

“Them.”

“Them who?”

“Them.”

“Glad my invite got lost.” Janet walked in, eyes narrow as if lasers might shoot her brother. “Instead, I was elbow deep in all-you-can-eat wings at the Cockpit.”

“Everything about that sentence is wrong,” Arthur said. “You didn’t miss out on much. Mostly, my hopes and dreams going down the drain.”

“Boss, have you looked online?” Orion’s eyes flashed blue. His shoulders straightened, his lips mumbling a second before our phones all vibrated.

Drew was the first to gasp as he scanned the screen. “Heroic work deserves our attention. The heroes of Vanguard stand behind Secret Identities Incorporated and the HeroApp™.”

“Vanguard’s heroes unite.” Arthur’s jaw dropped. “We’ve had over two hundred registrations since the launch. What’s going on?”

A news article flashed across my phone. “Mr. Supreme leads the charge for a new era of heroing.” I bit my lower lip, trying to hide my grin. “Oh look, there are pictures.”

“Over three hundred headlines. Seventy-six made the front page. The mayor is declaring his support for it on the news tonight. There’s also a few articles in the gossip columns about Janet.”

“Those vicious bitches.”

“They think you might be Mr. Supreme.”
