Gene’s body reacted.
“God. You’re too much for me to handle in bed,” he offered. “You definitely make me want to go wild. I hope I can be gentle.”
Oh, Ethan was glad.
That’s exactly what he wanted—awild, out of control, horny Gene.
Was that too much to ask for?
God knew he’d been a good boy this year, and mostly because of this man.
“You don’t say? Well, I’ll have to really up my game,” he offered. “And who asked you to be gentle?”
When he stared into Gene’s eyes, both of them were affected by the conversation. Ethan had a way of turning up the heat with his midnight-blue eyes.
It was getting hot in there.
Damn but work was getting in the way. Gene was just about ready to make a move and kiss his man when they heard the rev of an engine and a motorcycle pulling in.
It was showtime.
Unfortunately.
“Later, I’m most definitely going to have some fun with Tala,” Gene admitted. “You’ve stirred me up, and now I need an outlet for that lust,” he warned, checking out Ethan’s ass as he followed him out of the room.
It was probably a bad idea to tell him he liked it rough. That made Gene’s mouth go bone-dry. Now, it took all he had to focus on work and not play.
Peeking out the window, they found the two men talking, so they tried to listen.
“I grabbed all of my shit, kissed my old lady goodbye, and told her Daddy was getting her something pretty when we deliver this new batch of fuck toys.”
They knew that was Simon, recognizing him from the picture, and now, they also knew that there were still people being held.
Not surprisingly, there would be more victims. This was going to take a while to sort out.
The two men were amused by their little banter, so much so that Nomad gave him a fist bump as they headed for the front door.
Gene and Ethan had to get into position so the men could walk on in and never see the ambush coming. They needed to keep itINSIDEthe house, so no one escaped.
Quickly, using the remote, Gene turned on the TV in the other room and tucked himself into a corner to hide.
The whole time, he was watching Ethan’s location to make sure he was safe.
That was his primary mission. His partner tended to get his ass into trouble when left to his own devices, and that wasn’t going down on his watch.
The second the door opened, Nathaniel Hargrove poked his head in to call out to his buddy.
Unfortunately for Mario, he’d left the building.
“Renegade! Yo! We’re here!” Nomad shouted, giving him a heads-up.
When no one answered, they both paused.
Then, they must have heard the TV and figured he was in the back. The two men walked in, closing the door behind them just like Gene had hoped.
Then, it went south.
Unfortunately for Gene, his partner was close to where the men were. As if the universe wanted to hate him, both men looked to their left, where Ethan was standing.
