LIAM
I have had peace, doing simple chores, since I couldn't exert pressure on any part of my body. I am anxiously looking forward to my cousin's visit today. I am quite eager to see him and Christian so that I can scold them for postponing their wedding on my behalf.Just thinking of it makes me feel terrible, I know how much of a big deal it was for Lex to marry, again.I never thought he would ever attempt to get involved with anyone else after James' total failure. He has been through a lot, and I hate myself for adding to his burdens.“Liam…” a familiar voice startled me momentarily. I placed the flowers I was holding on the altar and turned to face the warden. I almost gasped at how luscious he looked. This is what happens when you spend a lot of time seeing old men dressed in horrible tunics. “Sir,” I mumbled, trying not to ogle. “Please call me, Daniel.” He breathed hastily. “I prefer that.” His deep baritone had my blood rushing to unwanted places, creating a problem for me. I took a step back and turned to hide my shame.“Are you okay?” He was closer now. I felt his warm breath fanning my exposed neck. “I am fine,” I stuttered. His nearness was short-circuiting my brain. I didn't know what to think. I would have thought that, after all, I had been through because of a man, I would run in the opposite direction, but here I was, leaning into his touch. He placed his hand on my shoulders, nudging me to face him. I did, but kept my glance everywhere but on him.“Please look at me,” that alluring voice has me obeying his every command like a puppy to his master. I raised my gaze to his.“How are you?” He asked the damn question, I had got tired of hearing. What did he expect me to say? That I am fine? I am miserable, and he should know that by now. But since he seems not to, I chose violence.“What do you want?” I snapped, shocking him, and he took two involuntary steps back. I regretted my outburst when he lifted his hands in surrender.“I didn't mean to offend you.” He pleaded. “I just want to make sure you are okay, as close as you can be in this place anyway.”Why did he have to be this nice?“Sorry,” I groaned, making him shake his head. “It was dumb of me to ask if you are okay. You are anything but that.” I smiled at his understanding. “I am trying to be okay. “ I whispered honestly, twiddling my thumbs.“You will be okay,” he promised, stepping closer. He grabbed my hands in his larger ones, and just caressed my fingers. That action went straight to my c*ck. I pulled my hand away quickly.He must have felt the pull too because he just stared at me intently for a while, before he grabbed my hands again. However, this time he is the one who jumped off muttering a harsh," F*ck!”, pinched his nose, and in a confused state, exited the chapel leaving me staring at his retreating back. What the hell was that? I was left wondering. Just a simple touch from him, affected my body like no one ever has. I'm convinced if he could have bent me over the altar, I would have gladly welcomed his cock in my cavern.I am truly f*cked up!A few minutes after he left, I resumed my assigned chores. And I still can't get his alarmed expression out of my head. At the same time, I felt weirdly safe with him. It's obvious he cared about well-being to some extent.Having him on my side might make this terrible nightmare a little manageable.*****I had barely finished lunch, when I was informed of my cousin's arrival. Just like dad, he threw a fit after seeing my damaged face. “Who did this?” He bellowed. His intent eyes scanned every part of my body he could lay eyes on. “We need to get you out of here,” “I am alright, Lex.” I specifically called him that to get him to loosen up. And he did by smiling briefly. Despite his numerous attempts to stop me from using that name on him, it kind of stuck. He used to argue that it was a dog name, but he still does. “Liam…" Christian whimpered, tracing his slender fingers on my bruises. “What have they done to you, love?” “It's just a little welcome package,” I shrugged, willing them to drop the subject. “Why the f*ck did you postpone your wedding?” Talk about bipolar. Less than a minute ago, I was the one who was urging my cousin to calm down.“We had to,” Chris offered simply. “It won't be a happy occasion for us, if you are not there. " “I ca…” “Shut up, kiddo,” Lex cut me off. “It's our wedding, and we can do whatever we want. It's postponed and that's final.” As I had thought, there was no room for negotiations. “Damn you guys,” “We love you too,” Chris taunted, succeeding in drawing a chuckle out of me.“You are always ganging up against me,” I whined, knowing there was no winning for me where these two are concerned.“You two deserve each other.” “Agreed,” Chris winked coyly, linking his arm with his fiancée.My cousin looked at him briefly, and caressed the hand holding his, before he turned my attention to me. “How is it in here? And please don't lie,”I swallowed hard. If I tell them the whole truth, I will just worry them. “It's not so bad. At least I know two people who are not out for my blood.”“Who are these people?” Lex asked curiously.“My cellmate and the warden.”“The warden?” His suspicion couldn't have been more apparent. “What does he want in return?” He grumbled, and eyed me intently, possibly trying to decipher the truth himself. “ Nothing,” he wrinkled his face.“He just wants to help.” I left out the part where he might want to get in my pants, and that I would allow him. “Just help, uh?” He didn't seem convinced. And he didn't even try to hide it. “You are so naive,” Ouch, that hurt. But I can't blame him. He did attempt to warn me about Spencer. “ I will be careful, I promise.” He glared, narrowing his older eyes. “Better be,”“How is dad?” I changed the topic. “Can you please take care of him for me? He didn't seem like himself yesterday.”“You don't have to ask, I will look after uncle, just take care of yourself, please.” He begged desperately. “I need you to stay safe, Liam.” His voice cracked, and I knew he feared for my life. He was afraid I wasn't tough enough to last six months, though he didn't voice his thoughts. “Don't worry,” My smile which was meant to comfort him only made him warier. “Hey, if I don't survive this, who else will keep your grumpy ass in check?” Chris cleared his throat, making me chuckle. “But I need your help to do so,” he added to the unspoken claim.DANIELLiam has the softest of hands. His smooth skin felt fragile under my rougher hands.The bolt of chills down my spine, when I touched him, startled me. I was so immersed in his pain the first time I touched him, in the hospital, to feel other things. The things I felt today in the absence of tears. It wasn't hard to know what those chills meant.He and I had a rapport, a solid one. I still don't know how I will go about it, but I don't plan to overthink it. My intercom buzzed, and I contemplated picking it. My secretary was just here a few minutes ago. What the hell did she forget to mention? “What is it?”“There is a gentleman here to see you, he is calling himself Alexander.” From her tone I could gather he was no official. “I don't know any Alexander,” I said, mostly to myself. “Send him in,” The tall gentleman who graced my office screamed power and wealth. From his Patek Philippe watch, to his plaid 3-piece gray suit and not to forget his Alexander McQueen leather sho
LIAMI breathlessly tucked in my spent c*ck, already starting to feel mortified, with my actions.Damn you, Daniel! For arousing these sensations, I can't even describe. For god's sake, I just finished wanking, picturing him. I have never had a faster release with my hand.What I feel for him isn't just sexual, it goes deeper than that. And I think he knows it too. Anytime he is around, I can't keep calm. My heart starts pounding, palms sweating and my cock jerks anytime I feel his touch. There is also this warm fuzziness I feel when I am with him. I have found it easy, to speak my mind in his presence, which rarely happens. Yesterday our gaze met briefly across the field, anyone watching would have caught onto us. I couldn't tear my eyes off him, and neither could he, honestly. It took much effort and nudging from Gianna for him to break the stare. And even then, I was disappointed he did.I had no caution with Daniel. No breaks, no restraints whatsoever. I was just falling hard,
DANIELI specifically requested Gianna to place Liam on office cleaning duty today. I haven't had time to talk to him in the last two days. I have been avoiding him in hopes of suppressing my desires. I want him badly, and avoiding him hasn't dampened that.I am expecting him to walk through the door any minute now, with cleaning supplies. The very thought of seeing him scares me delightfully. There was a light knock, and the knob turned. I swallowed hard. The door opened, and he peeked in, shyly at first. When his eyes found mine, he smiled, and it was contagious. I reeled in the comfort that I wasn't happy alone. He wanted to see me, and I, him.“Hey,” he walked further into the room, closing the door. He was standing just a few meters away. “ Hi.” I answered, getting on my feet. He fidgeted, clutching onto the mop tightly.“What is it?” It was obvious he wanted to say something. “You know you can trust me,” He seemed to think about it. My gaze didn't stray from him.“I have a
LIAM I stiffened in his arms the moment he hugged me. It was unexpected, but after the initial shock wore off, I allowed myself to relax and enjoy the warm embrace. Hugging Daniel felt nice, really nice. I buried my nose on his chest and smelled the lemon-ish fragrance clinging to his shirt. His hands which held just below my shoulders were rubbing softly on my back in a comforting manner. It was as if he was drilling it to my mind that he was there with me. I was aware of my body's reaction to his nearness, and so was he. I reluctantly pulled back, but we still stood close, feeling each other's breath. His head started to lower, closing the distance between our faces as seconds ticked by. If not for my untimely sneeze, our lips could have touched. He chuckled awkwardly, stepping back, drawing a nervous smile from me. We kept the conversation flowing for a few more minutes, and he promised to look into my request. We agreed he should leave and let me carry on with the cleaning.
LIAM There was a very uncomfortable silence, for a minute or two before they all started laughing, as if I had just cracked a joke of a lifetime. “Did you hear that, boys? He wants to buy our protection.” There was another defeating laughter. Did Daniel know these kinds of things happen? I wondered, facing my assailants with determination.“Tell me your price,” I growled desperately. The attention was back again on me. “You need money and I need protection.” I added with certainty catching their interest. “How much do you have?” The boss asked seriously,“Two hundred bills. “ I replied immediately.“Okay,” he accepted instantly, making me wary. The bastard didn't laugh, negotiate or kick me, surprisingly. “Does that mean you accept?” I must have jinxed it. He slapped me hard. “Never make me repeat myself, now pay up.” He scolded grimly.I traced my palm over my bruised cheek. “I will pay, but you have to guarantee my safety.” I held my ground, aggravating him more. “From you as w
DANIEL My agitation only grew with time. When it got the better of me, I locked my office in a hurry, headed to the parking lot. I will have to wait until Monday to confront Liam. My phone blasted with Chris's name on the screen. I let it go straight to voicemail. I knew he would be pissed, but I would rather do the explaining face to face. My thoughts drifted back to Liam as I sped through the highway. I sincerely want the best for him, but I am not sure to what extent. I'm jeopardizing everything I believe in, just because I am interested in him. I would have talked to him before I left, but I didn't trust my emotions around him. Not when I am this agitated. My only hope is that those bastards don't end up double-crossing him. Because it would force me to react, and I am not sure whether it would be good for anyone. I took a right turn and spotted an empty parking spot, which I hurriedly occupied. I sighted Chris the moment I got into the bar. He was seated by the counter, glan
LIAM It has been two weeks since I stopped tiptoeing around the prison scared. It has also been two weeks since the last time Daniel sought me out.He has been avoiding me and I figured it's because I joined the crew, instead of waiting for him like I had promised I would.It's irritating. I can't just march into his office, and demand to have a talk. Many are the days I have contemplated doing exactly that, but I know it would be jeopardizing the both of us. So, I have been patient, hoping he will get over whatever hurt ego issues he has going on and hear my side of the story. But he hasn't. And I am worried that perhaps he has lost interest in me. It's not a delightful feeling. Long gone, are the sneaky tender stolen gazes. Now, whenever our eyes meet, he quickly averts.My days are now spent with the crew, playing my part. I wasn't thrilled when I found out that my protection included spending all my time outside the cell with them. But it was the only way they could guarantee m
DANIELOne might think that I am used to the chaos and mess that comes with my title as a warden, but don't be fooled.The kind of sh*t that goes around in prison is quite unpredictable. Take for instance now, it's just a few minutes past 4 am, and I am in my car heading to work. Apparently, I had three murders on my hands and no one knows anything. From what I understand, it started with a fire.Three hours later and my phone is blowing up crazily. My superiors are demanding answers I don't have. And it doesn't help that I have a certain inmate to avoid. I have four guys interviewing the inmates on the matter and Gianna, Kane, and I are working on an incident report. We need to have a convincing argument on why no one saw anything, or things will become really ugly for all of us. They might send in audits, and nothing good comes from such visits. But at the same time, three bodies cannot be ignored. I have three families to sadden with the breaking news, and I can't find a logical
