Jaywasfilthy.Trulyfilthy.

And it feltwonderful.

Especially with the car window rolled down, the warm summer sun shining on his face, and Alexei’s delicious scent filling the vehicle. Wasn’t Jay just the luckiest?

He looked to his mate behind the wheel. Alexei had dirt on his nose and pine needles sticking out of his pretty hair. He looked as wonderful as Jay felt.

“I think camping is just the best,” Jay declared. “Super-duper fun.”

Alexei’s eyes briefly left the road as he gave Jay a warm smile. “So you’ve said, kitten.”

Oops. Jayhadsaid that. Probably about a hundred times already. But it was true. Camping was super-duper fun. And it turned out camping as a vampire was maybe evenextrafun: they’d been able to hike out super far, miles away from any other living soul; they hadn’t needed to bring real food, so Alexei had filled Jay’s pack up with tons of different candies instead; and the cold nights couldn’t bother them, so it hadn’t even mattered when Jay had accidentally snapped the tentpoles in his excitement—they’d just slept on their mats outside instead. Alexei had even claimed it was actually better that way because they’d been able to fully see the stars.

And then they’d gotten to have sex. Outside. In thedirt.

Well, Alexei had suggested they put a blanket down (“let’s not get dirt packed in anywhere it’s not supposed to be”), but they’d still been surrounded by nature and sunlight, and Jay had gotten so into it he’d even taken charge for once, rolling Alexei onto his broad back and bouncing on his cock like some kind of…some kind ofporn staror something.

Alexei had looked up at him like he was an angel, or maybe an incubus, surprisingly speechless considering his usual sultry words of encouragement and praise, and Jay had felt so full and beautiful and powerful. He was determined to do it again. But also maybe to still do lots of loving time because he really couldn’t resist having Alexei’s full attention and talents focused 100 percent on Jay.

But! The point was…camping was awesome.

Jay reached a hand out the car window to feel the wind rushing by. “Do you think we could get the family to go camping with us sometime?”

Alexei seemed to think that over for a minute, tapping the steering wheel with his fingers. “Danny, definitely,” he said after a moment. “Which means Roman too. Soren you might have to bribe.”

Jay wiggled his fingers in the wind, thinking it over. “I could share my camping candy with him.”

Alexei made a skeptical sound. “I’m thinking more like letting him talk you into buying some diamond-encrusted designer blouse or something.”

What a weird thought. Jay looked down at his filthy, torn T-shirt. “To wear camping?”

Alexei’s laugh was deep and rich. “Sure, sweetheart. To wear camping.”

Jay really thought that sounded kind of silly and uncomfortable, but he hummed happily anyway, enamored with the idea of a family camping trip. He wondered if Jamie and Luc had ever been camping together. Could someone go camping in the desert? That would be so fun, with cacti all around them. Although, then they’d need to be a little more careful rolling around during sexy times. Although, then again, if they were on a family camping trip, maybe there wouldn’t be any sexy times anyway.

Unless…

Jay brought his hand back into the car, settling it on his lap and turning to face Alexei. “Have you ever been part of an orgy?”

Alexei’s strangled, “Excuse me?” was about an octave higher than usual.

Or maybeorgywasn’t quite the right word. Jay didn’t want to actually have sex with anyone other than Alexei. Just maybe at the same time, in the same location, as someone other than Alexei? So that no one had to miss out on sexy times when camping?

What exactly did an orgy entail? He’d need to look it up later.

Alexei cleared his throat, and his eyes kept darting away from the road, which probably wasn’t very safe. “Jay…”

But Jay was distracted from clarifying by a blur running across said road. “Oh!” he yelled out. “Stop the car, please.”

Alexei stopped immediately, not even asking why Jay was making them pull over. They both hopped out, and Jay hustled over to where he’d last seen the fuzzy-looking blur run to: a row of bushes lining a gas station lot.

There was a kitten cowering against the shrubbery.

“Hello, kitten,” Jay said, bending over at the waist to wave at the little ball of fur. “What are you doing out here all by yourself?”

But the little bitty thing kept cowering under the bush, hissing when Jay tried to move closer.

Jay sighed, feeling more than a little dejected. “It’s scared of me,” he complained to Alexei, who’d crept up behind him. “Dogs I can usually win over with a biscuit or a walk. But I can never get cats to like me. And I like them so much!”
