He knew he was distracting me, and he liked it.

We moved on from Chris and Andrew. Now it was Keith and Deigo’s turn in the spotlight.

“Okay, so you two are going to be near that back wall. And I was thinking we could play around with the height difference? Since Keith is so much taller?—”

“Ooh, that’s good,” Jacob added. “Kind of like a teasing thing? Keith has height and Diego has the muscle definition. Maybe we do one with Diego flexing and one with Keith acting like he’s about to dunk on him?”

“That’s… another great suggestion.” I tried and failed to hide the surprise in my voice. I wasn’t used to people pitching ideas to me unless they either worked in PR, too, or were on a social media team. “What do you think, Tommy?”

“Sounds like fun.” Tommy beamed before he motioned for the guys to get into place, slightly shifting his camera.

Just like before, as the camera flashed, I found myself being drawn to Jacob. And there he was, with that slight smile, like he already knew about the effect he had on me.

Maybe you need to be thrown off your game.

Jacob’s earlier words came back to me in that moment, casually floating across my brain.

“Areyou trying to take my job? Is that what this is?” I jokingly pressed as I got undressed in my oversized bathroom. Jacob andI had found ourselves both walking back toward my bedroom, even though I hadn’t extended a verbal invitation.

But honestly, I didn’t have to, not with the way I’d been staring at him throughout the whole photoshoot.

“I just had a few ideas. That’s all.” Jacob shrugged. “But I didn’t mean to overstep. And if you’d shot any of them down, I promise I wouldn’t have been an asshole about it.”

“Yeah, I don’t really get the asshole vibe from you.”

Jacob chuckled. “Did it feel strange?”

“Did what feel strange?”

“Not holding the reins all by yourself,” he added. “Having someone help you put the pieces together.”

“I don’t know. I think I actually kind of liked it.” I thought over the question as I finished pulling off the rest of my clothes. I held a hand underneath the running water of the shower, testing its heat on my palm. “When you’re the one with final say on everything, it can be way too much pressure. This way, it felt like I was sharing the load.”

“So, you’d say you felt like a weight was lifted?” Jacob suggested, as he pulled off the rest of his clothes, too. “Like some kind of release?”

“It feels like you want me to use some pretty specific language to describe the feeling?”

“Maybe so.” Jacob closed the distance between us, his arms wrapping around my waist. “Or maybe I just wanted to see if you’d be interested in a different kind of release? Something… deeper?”

“Hmm. Let me think about it.” I pretended to hem and haw. “Are you sure you could give me that deep of a release? What’s your return policy like?”

“Try me on for size and let’s find out.” Jacob’s tone was low and lustful.

I ran my hand underneath the shower again, this time the water being the perfect temperature.

“What are you thinking right now, Leo?” Jacob asked, his arms wrapping even tighter around me, keeping me in place.

“I’m thinking that I want to see what you can do,” I replied, as I trailed my fingers down the side of his face. “Ready whenever you are.”

JACOB

It took everything in me to wait until we were out of the shower.

Of course, I’d still been tempted to touch him, to run my tongue along his skin. Leo groaned at my every move as the water cascaded around us, as my hand casually brushed across his ass, across his stiff cock. I wanted him to be a complete mess by the time I was ready to be inside him, practically begging me to take him as hard as I could.

Nearly as soon as we’d dried off from the shower, I was pulling Leo toward his bed. When he wasn’t moving fast enough, I scooped him up into my arms, carrying him the rest of the way.
