ASHTON
Both of us shirtless, our pants zipped up, and cleaned from our passionate encounter, I asked Lennox to wait before stepping out of my Audi. He closed his door and settled back onto the seat, curiosity evident on his furrowed brows. What I was about to do, I had never done before. It may seem insignificant compared to what we had just experienced, but to me, it meant everything.
"What is it?" Lennox asked, his voice filled with anticipation.
Summoning all the confidence I possessed, which was quite a lot, I replied, "I got you something."
"You got me something?" he repeated, surprise evident in his voice.
"According to every romantic movie ever made, it seemed like the ri
LENNOX Ashton's kitchen was adorned with black and orange Halloween streamers and pumpkin lanterns, creating a festive atmosphere. I carefully arranged various bottles of liquor on the countertop - tequila, vodka, and flavored rum. In addition, I had bought two six-packs of beer, a jug of orange juice, and a liter of Rees' Soda. Ashton frowned at the assortment. Raising an eyebrow, I said, "You told me to get a variety. Well, here it is. It meets your requirements." Unspoken Rule #1: Ashton Johnson must never buy alcohol himself. If he did, it would make headlines, exposing his breach of sobriety. To avoid that mess, he had to rely on me to make the trip to th
LENNOXMy entire body responds, my world illuminated to its core. He takes my orgasm in his mouth, licks off the remaining traces from my cock, and swallows. When he rises to his feet, as if every action he just performed is the most natural thing in the world, I almost become hard again.Ashton appears utterly consumed by me. His breath heavy, his gaze roaming every limb, every inch of my flesh. I pull up my boxer-briefs and pants, but he grabs my hand before I can zip up."One moment," he says, breathing heavily. "I need to be inside you."Need. He is desperate to climax. I let go and surrender to his desires. Whatever he needs, I would offer him. In the briefest window of time, we urgent
ASHTON "I don't think I brought enough chips," Maddy complains as she stands beside me in the kitchen. We're preparing a plate of food for everyone. She examines the Tostitos in disappointment. "What was I thinking? Just one bag? Perth could devour a whole bag by himself. And why did I bring donuts? No one else likes midnight donuts except me." I place both hands on her broad swimmer's shoulders. Maddy is tall, with long legs and arms, and when she's barefoot, she's almost six feet tall, just a couple of inches shorter than me. We could easily pass as siblings rather than cousins. Our moms are sisters, and we share their striking green eyes. Our dads are half-brothers, and if I hadn't dyed my hair, we would also share our grandfather's dark brown hair. So yes, you probably know Madison Hayn
ASHTONA sense of relief washes over me, and I watch as Lennox takes a bite of his homemade English muffin. It's filled with a delicious combination of egg, bacon, and cheese. He prepared it at his townhouse, showered, and brought it here, even though we already had snacks for the evening.Lennox's love for breakfast food knows no limits. He would happily order sunny-side up eggs and sausage for every meal, seven days a week.He extends the half-eaten sandwich toward me."I thought you didn't share," I say, raising an eyebrow.He licks his thumb and his lips curl into a smile. "I share with you, and only you."I grab th
ASHTONFirecrackers exploded, shattering the tranquility of the night. My immediate reaction was to jump to my feet, and in an instant, all three bodyguards sprang into action."Lennox!" Perth shouted, urgently pointing towards the front door, grabbing his radio from a nearby sleeping bag. "Perth to Alpha. Perth to Alpha."Lennox wasted no time and sprinted towards the exit. Fueled by anger and concern for my family's safety, I followed closely behind, my eyes narrowed with intensity. Someone had deliberately broken my window, and the possibility of gunshots raced through my mind.My vision became clouded with rage.Lennox reached for the doorknob, but he abruptly turned to face
ASHTONI find myself staring fixedly at the closed front door, desperately hoping to see Lennox walking in."No strays," Willow informs Kaleb, her words slightly slurred. "But I did adopt another cat yesterday. His name is Licorice. He's a four-year-old gray long-haired cat with blue eyes."Kaleb speaks into his microphone. "There's a sixth cat, Licorice. Gray." He presses the gauze against Willow's knees, and she tears open a Band-Aid with her teeth. Kaleb then addresses my best friend, "Princess Betty, Snicker, and Olivia are accounted for."Willow nods, visibly relieved.Suddenly, the door opens, and my heart leaps, thinking it's Lennox. But it's not.
LENNOXAfter finishing bandaging my arms, I take a moment to catch my breath. Ashton goes upstairs to check on Willow and make some family calls. We can't speak freely with security personnel everywhere. I sit down and recount the events of tonight to the Tri-Force, providing every detail in a detached manner.After what feels like an eternity, they finally release me.All I want to do is find Ashton. Finding him is my sole desire. I want to be with him.I make my way to the staircase, passing three Alpha bodyguards who pat my shoulder and offer words of congratulations. They commend me for my quick actions, as the man I pinned down had a handgun on him. If he hadn't been caught, it's believed that he and his accomplice could have easily
LENNOXHis lips curl into a smile, but then a sense of deep contemplation settles over him as he ponders my words: "I was young and foolishly mistook 'you have a great ass' for love." Then he asks, "How do you know that's not happening now?"My eyebrows shoot up. "That's assuming I'm in love with..." I stop myself, reading his guarded body language. His features lock down, shutting me out. No. No. "Hey, I'm just messing with you, Ashton. I'm sorry." I hold his emotionless face in my hands. My stomach twists. It's difficult for him to be vulnerable, I know that.I shouldn't have made that joke."It's fine," he says, his voice devoid of emotion. "I under
