Page 7 of Sex and Suspicion

His phone rang, and with another glance at the guards, he turned back the way he came and answered his phone; it was Danny. "I didn’t realize it, but I got a text from him last night. I’ll send it to you.” Danny screenshotted the text and sent it to him. “He was down there near that Bay Harbor community.”

"Thanks, Danny."

“Let me know when you find him.”

“I will.”

The text read, ‘The night is perfect. I got some stunning pictures tonight. I'll show them to you tomorrow. The Bay Harbor people are watching me but not bothering me yet. This is the best location, so they're just going to have to get used to me being here.’The message was time stamped ten forty-six. When Aidan returned to the parking lot, he simply stood at his car and took in the entire scene, trying to figure out what might have happened there last night. His gut was telling him the Bay Harbor community knew what had happened to Jake, and he was going to make them talk. Their bullshit antics might put some people off, but Aidan wasn't that delicate.

Hayes held his mate close and finished stripping him of his remaining clothes. They were both naked now, and the sensations of his warm, eager flesh beneath Hayes' hands were immense. "I love the touch of your beautiful body, my love." Hayes was spewing every tender word and feeling that came to him. This was his mate, and honesty was easy.

He was short, and his body slender and firm but also soft in all the right places. He was a lovely young man. "You want me, sweetheart?" Hayes teased and reached between them to caress Jake's hard, leaking cock. It was warm and inviting, and Hayes took it in a firm grip and began a rapid rhythm, stroking him and relishing the sensuous sounds of Jake’s answering desire.

"Yes, I want you; I want you so fucking bad my mind is exploding with the need that I feel for you.” The words were strained and held a measure of desperation that brought a sense of satisfaction to Hayes. His mate was aching for him. The connection was growing, and the draw was becoming fierce.

Hayes rolled him gently onto his back and slowly stretched out over him. Looking down at the gorgeous face wasall he ever needed in his life. The contentment that filled his heart and mind and touched his soul was astonishing. The need to mark and claim was coming over him with each touch, word, and declaration.

His wolf was laser-focused on completing the bond, pushing Hayes to get closer and move faster. The need to act fast was hounding him, but his mate was human and needed tenderness and care, so he slowed but did not alter his focus to mark and claim.

The lure of his body and the hypnotic effect of his scent had Hayes hard as a rock and his need at a razor's edge. The bond would bring the final awareness to his mate, making any further confusion or questions doubtful. The bond was just that, a bonding of their bodies and souls. Jake would become one with the wolf, and understanding would become complete.

Jake felt his body burning with a piercing need that he had never felt before. Never had he wanted anyone the way he wanted Hayes. He was handsome, of course, but the burn that had steadily turned into a raging inferno beneath his skin was only for Hayes. It started with his gaze and then grew with his touch and then completely ignited with his kiss.

His words of want caused a yearning in Jake that spurred him to clutch and grasp at his amazing body, needing him closer and craving his attention. "I need you, Hayes, I need more.” He shared his desire and added the truth of what he was feeling. “My body is burning for you.” Hayes pressed his hard cock against Jake and ground his hips in a salacious manner, making Jake whine with sensations sparking through him.

He watched as Hayes covered his fingers in a slick lubricant and then forced two of those fingers into Jake’s tightentrance, stretching him with his large fingers and tantalizing him with the rapid thrusts. The heat that had been consuming him was now out of control. He moved his hips in time with Hayes' thrusts, needing to go deeper and harder and wanting him to fill him fuller.

"I got you, easy sweetheart. Take it as I give it easy, smooth sensations.” His tone was sexy and velvety soft and yet deep with a timbre that sizzled across Jake’s flesh. Suddenly the fingers were gone, and Jake felt the hard throbbing presence of Hayes' thick cock as he pressed lightly, at first testing the entrance and then firmly plunging inside.

The fullness was immediate and sent a throbbing sensation of pleasure surging through Jake. It beat with the beat of his heart and grew with each thrust, building to an explosive level. His breath caught in his throat, and he gripped Hayes by the upper arms, trying to steady himself and meet the powerful thrusts of his mate.

Jake wrapped his legs around Hayes' waist, lifting himself higher for impact and depth, and it was wonderful. He closed his eyes and dug his fingernails into Hayes' upper arm as the most intense satisfaction and gratification hit him there. Then Hayes hammered inside, going to the base, filling his so full he felt stretched to capacity but still ached for more. Hayes roared, locked his eyes on Jake's, and came hard, bursting stream after stream of hot seed, filling him, stimulating him, and leaving him breathless and panting.

Hayes' face shifted partially, his eyes turning feral and his face taking on the essence of his wolf. Jake could see the wolf staring at him, and he could feel him in his core. Hayes dropped his head and sunk his teeth into Jake's shoulder, biting down. Pain radiated for a split second, and then pleasure explodedthrough him, and he came. Jake climaxed, spilling his seed and coming over and over as the sensations raged along his nerves.

The bite released a vivid scene in his mind; it was Hayes, his wolf, and they were joining with him, the three of them becoming one. It was wild and ferocious and an experience that blew Jake's mind. The supernatural was part of him. Now, he felt it in every inch of his body and his mind. The outrageous was a reality, and Jake was a part of it now.

He felt Hayes remove his teeth and lick the wound, sending more sharp and titillating sensations through his being. He was floating on endorphins and the sense of belonging to the most magnificent man in the world. "You're mine now, Hayes, and like you said, no going back and no walking away. This is forever."

"Forever, Jake, this is forever you, me, and my wolf. Prepare for the marvelous and the miraculous because the world of the supernatural is now yours." Hayes slipped out, leaving a distinct loss, but then stretched out beside him and gathered Jake up into his arms. Hayes was a large man, tall and muscular, and Jake looked forward to a lifetime in his arms.

“Barlow, I need your help, Jake's missing, and I think it involves that sketchy community of weirdos on the bay.” Aidan decided it was time to get help, and Deputy Barlow Katz was just the person to call. They had been friends since school, and Barlow was part of the reason Aidan had taken the job at Sensor and moved to Eastport. He told him that Eastport was an up-and-coming community with many prospects, and that proved to be true.

Aidan was very happy at Sensor Properties and comfortable in Eastport, but that Bay Harbor community hadalways caused him concern. It was the only negative in a land of positives. Barlow also saw them as suspicious but always beyond reach. If they did anything to Jake, they would pay and pay hard.

Deputy Katz agreed with Aidan’s concerns and had also wondered about the secretive sect at Bay Harbor. He was more than ready to accompany Aidan to question those at Bay Harbor in connection with the disappearance of Jake Kolly. A search of his phone indicated that Jake’s phone was inside the main house of the Bay Harbor group. It was important that they get inside, and neither Barlow nor Aidan were going to be deterred.

They approached the large, secure gate on foot, having parked on the main road. The distance from the gate to the main house was only about half a mile, an easy walk. Being on foot would allow them to make some observations along the way as long as the guards didn’t demand to transport them.

"What's your business, Deputy Katz?" The guard came up to stand in front of them. He apparently was already familiar with Barlow Katz.

Barlow explained their reasons curt but clearly. “His phone is in your main house. Let us in, or I go for a warrant. Jake Kolly has been missing since yesterday, and his last known location was your beachfront."

The guards did not immediately respond; they just looked them up and down speculatively. His gaze shifted to Aidan. "And who are you?” That haughty self-importance hit Aidan the wrong way. Aidan, although about six inches shorter, defiantly stepped up to hold the man’s gaze.

“My brother’s phone is on your land. My brother came here to the beach out in front of your main house to take photos of the sunset. He hasn't been seen or heard from since coming here. You're going to release him, or I'm going to tear this placeapart." The guard’s lip turned up slightly, showing his disdain, and Aidan got into his face, causing the guard to take a step back.

“You have no idea who I am, what I've done, and what I'm willing to do for Jake." Aidan spat. “Don’t test me.” Barlow reached out and placed his hand on Aidan's upper arm, and just then, someone joined them.
