shampoo. Unless you have some in your bag?”
What was he thinking? He was so anxious to assume all of Braylin’s care, he’d pushed any other option to the side.
“Oh, I’ve been using whatever the hotels provide this whole time. That’s fine.”
Zen pursed his lips. That wouldn’t do at all. Next chance he got, he was putting an order in and having them send out some selections to the next tour stop. Then, Braylin could choose which ones he liked best and they could stock up. He rubbed his hands together like a villain. This was going to be so much fun.
Zen stepped back into the shower and noted how Braylin had braced himself with his palms against the tile, his head hanging low. So far, their sexual exploits had been limited in the newness of their relationship. Zen had been focusing on their Dom/sub connection and easing Braylin into that dynamic.
He’d also been cognizant of Braylin’s innocence, and not wanting his boy’s first time to be while they were on the road. Especially when they were overwhelmed by exhaustion much of the time, combined with the potential for interruption from Gordy, his assistant or personal manager. Perhaps he was trying too hard to control the situation, but then again, it came with the Dom territory.
Although tonight, he was going to give Braylin the hummer of a lifetime.
“Okay, baby. You’re done.”
Braylin’s eyes were hooded, but not from desire. The kid was truly wiped out. Zen imagined he was crashing from the adrenaline high he’d been surfing on all night. It wouldn’t take much to suck Braylin to sleep.
After toweling Braylin off and wrapping up Braylin’s wet hair, Zen scooped him up the way he’d done earlier and carried him to the bed. This time, Braylin gave in, laying his head against Zen’s shoulder and draping his arms around Zen’s neck.
Zen smiled as he gently placed Braylin on the bed, Braylin stretching his arms above his head and yawning.
“That was amazing.” Braylin smiled up at him. “You’re amazing.”
On one of the afternoons they’d spent together in the hotel, the sexual heat between them had been too strong to deny. Zen’s plan of keeping his hands off until Braylin adjusted not only to being a sub, but going from fan to boyfriend, had fallen apart. Not when those beautiful green eyes surrounded by thick dark lashes stared up at him, his bow-shaped lips slightly parted as if begging to be kissed. Everything had conspired to make Zen give in.
There wouldn’t be a long, sensuous exploration of Braylin’s body with his hands and tongue tonight. Nor would he expect Braylin to reciprocate the way he’d done that afternoon, sharing with Zen that it was the first time he’d spent the day in bed with someone, simply enjoying each other, coming when they pleased then napping in between. Tonight was only for Braylin.
Zen crawled up the length of the bed, then laid his body across Braylin, a small gasp falling from Braylin’s lips the second their skin touched. God, but his boy was beautiful. How Braylin could appear so innocent and wicked all at once was beyond him. He was captured and held prisoner by this incredible man who’d unexpectedly appeared in his world.
He’d never take him for granted.
Zen took Braylin’s mouth in a deep, languid kiss—reveling in the sweetness of his taste. He swirled his tongue around Braylin’s, demanding Braylin’s submission with his mouth. Once Braylin gave in and had fully relaxed beneath Zen’s body, Zen broke the connection to nibble his way down Braylin’s body—his soft, smooth skin a glorious playground.
When he reached Braylin’s hardened nipples, he took one of the pink bits of flesh between his teeth, worrying the sensitive skin until Braylin’s moans became louder, his hard cock like a brand against Zen’s torso.
“Mmm…baby likes that.” He sucked in the other one, and as Braylin wriggled beneath him, the warm wetness of Braylin’s precum painted Zen’s skin. “Gonna get these pierced on tour so they’ll be healed in time for me to play with during our break.”
“I-I…what?”
Zen answered Braylin in between kisses as he continued down the length of Braylin’s body.
“You heard me. You’ll be so damn sexy with rings in your cute nips. Then I can twist and pull on them, tug them with my teeth.”
Braylin’s dick twitched against Zen’s chest. “Yeah. I mean no. Oh God,” he whimpered. “I don’t know what I mean.”
Zen nuzzled Braylin’s groin. “Yes, you do.” Braylin’s cock jumped again, this time hitting Zen’s cheek,
