rocked with their movements. The windows fogged with their rapid breathing while an inferno raged though Kieran’s body.

“I need…I need…” Lynk rested his temple against the side of Kieran’s head and groaned as his whole body shuddered, clearly on the verge of climax.

“You need me.”

“Yes,” Lynk hissed. “I need you.”

Kieran trailed his tongue over the salty skin on his lover’s shoulder. “Then come for me, sugar. Strangle my cock. Make me feel Flawless 97

it.” He licked again before he struck, sinking his canines into the damp flesh while his arms locked around Lynk’s waist like steel bands.

His mate screamed loud enough to make his eardrums hurt as he exploded, his cock spurting and his inner walls convulsing around Kieran, massaging his cock, milking him. “Come for me, love,” Lynk rasped, grinding himself against Kieran’s groin.

The orgasm that rippled through him stole the breath from his lungs and left him momentarily deaf and blind. His growl was loud enough to vibrate the windows as he filled Lynk to the brim, overflowing his snug channel with his seed.

“Damn, it just keeps getting better,” Kieran said hoarsely when speech finally returned to him. “You okay, sugar?” He skimmed his palm down Lynk’s spine and peppered kisses over the side of his face.

Lynk snuggled against his chest while his body shuddered with aftershocks. His arms looped around Kieran’s neck, holding on to him tightly. “Better than okay.”

A movement outside the window caught Kieran’s attention just before a large fist pounded against the glass. “Man, you’re blocking the drive!”

Wiping away the fog, Kieran kept his other arm around Lynk and smiled up at the man’s brother. “Hi, Torren.” Torren snorted and rolled his eyes. “Get a room. That’s my baby brother, you know. I really don’t need to see this.”

“Then close your eyes or go away,” Lynk said, making no attempt to remove himself from Kieran’s lap.

“Just move the damn truck.” Then the eldest Braddock stomped away, presumably to his own vehicle parked right behind them.

Kieran and Lynk fell together in laughter, and Kieran suddenly felt like a teenager being caught in the backseat of his car by his partner’s father. Instead of being afraid for his life, though, he found the entire situation hilarious.

Gods, life with Lynk was so much better than anything he’d experienced on his own. He’d do whatever it took to never lose that feeling. He’d been too young and stupid to hold on to it before, but he wouldn’t let it slip through his hands again.

Chapter Twelve

“What do you mean I can’t go?” Lynk fisted his hands on his hips and snarled at his brother and his mate. For two days he’d been waiting for Bannon to come up with a suitable dream sequence that would allow them to extract the information they needed to save Thane. Now that everything was in place, Torren and Kieran were telling him that he wasn’t going to help.

“It’s too dangerous,” Kieran said. Lynk was sure he was going for soothing and coaxing, but it wasn’t working.

“Besides that,” Torren interrupted, “your presence could hurt more than help. All it would take is for Zasha or Leader Tuesday to recognize you, and the whole thing is blown. That’s my final decision, and I’m not backing down from it.”

“What about disguising us? I thought you said that Bannon could do that.” He jabbed a finger in Kieran’s direction. “And why does he get to go? You don’t think they’ll recognize him?” When neither man had a ready answer, Lynk found his suspicion piqued. They were hiding something from him. More importantly, Kieran was keeping secrets.

“Lynk, you’re not going,” Kieran insisted, dropping all pretenses of the supportive lover. “I would lose my goddamn mind if anything happened to you. Please don’t argue with me on this one.”

“We just got you back,” Torren added, his face somber. “I want to rescue Thane as much as you do, but don’t make me choose between the two of you. I won’t sacrifice one brother to save the other. Don’t ask me to do that.”

They weren’t playing fair. Lynk wasn’t asking them to sacrifice anything. He might not be the almighty Torren, but he was damn powerful, and he could help. Why didn’t anyone ever believe in him?

He’d thought Kieran did, but he now understood how wrong he’d been.

Unless… “What happened?”

“Nothing,” Kieran answered a little too quickly. He suddenly found a spot on the arm of the sofa to be very interesting.

“You were in full support of me doing this as long as you could be at my side.” Lynk rose from the armchair and prowled toward his mate. “You didn’t think it was too dangerous or that I was too weak two days ago. Tell me what changed.”

“I was just trying to pacify you.” Kieran still wouldn’t look at him. “I didn’t want to cause a scene at the meeting.” Lie. Lynk could practically smell the untruth rolling off his lover.

“Wow, and I thought Torren was a bad liar.”

“Am not,” Torren mumbled under his breath without a shred of conviction.

Well, two could play at that game. Or was it three? Whatever.

“Fine. When is Bannon supposed to be here?”

“Tomorrow at five,” Kieran answered. “We have to wait for all the vamps to be sleeping for the day. Raven and Varik will be here before the sun comes up and hang out in the basement until it’s time.”

“And you’re not going to tell me what happened that suddenly changed everything, are you?”

“No.”

Well, at least he wasn’t lying anymore. “Okay, well if you really think that it’s too dangerous for me…” Lynk trailed off and shrugged.

“I’m going to bed. Are you coming?”

“That’s it? That’s all you’re going to say?” Kieran’s eyebrows drew together, and he sounded incredulous to say the least.

“What would you like me to say? It’s obvious that I’m not going to budge you on this, so what’s the point in arguing?”
