The relaxing glow of the city lights spilled through the large windows, portraying long shadows of trees and inanimate objects across the penthouse bedroom. The atmosphere of the room was thick with something unspoken, something dangerous yet so soothing. And yet, neither of them moved away.
Nathan Cole sat at the edge of his king-sized bed, his dress shirt unbuttoned at the top, a glass of whiskey resting loosely in his grip. He was not drunk, but the alcohol did little to numb the weight pressing against his chest.
Across the room, Ethan Rivera stood by the door, seemingly hesitant. The faint scent of Nathan’s cologne mixed with the lingering hint of the whiskey, intoxicating in a way Ethan would never admit aloud.
“Maybe I should just go,,” Ethan said, his voice barely above a whisper. But he did not move.
Nathan looked up, his deep brown eyes locking onto Ethan’s with an intensity that made his breath hitch. “Then what are you waiting for? Go,” he murmured, but the words lacked conviction.
Ethan swallowed hard. “You do not want me to.”
Silence stretched between them, bearing with it the importance of every moment they had ignored. The stolen glances. The way their hands would brush when passing each other in the kitchen. The way Nathan’s gaze would hang on for a second too long when Ethan walked around shirtless after a shower.
Ethan took a slow step forward. Then another.
Nathan exhaled sharply. “Ethan, this is…”
“Wrong?” Ethan cut in, standing just inches from him now. “Then stop me.”
Nathan’s grip tightened around his glass, his jaw clenching as Ethan slowly, deliberately, knelt between his legs. The younger man placed his hands on Nathan’s knees, pushing them apart ever so slightly. His touch burned.
“You do not understand, we should not be doing this” Nathan murmured, his voice lacking the strength to push Ethan away.
Ethan tilted his head. “Then make me understand.”
Nathan let out a sharp breath. His fingers found their way into Ethan’s thick, dark hair, tilting his face up. For a moment, neither of them moved, the anticipation nearly suffocating.
Then Nathan’s lips crashed against that of Ethan’s.
The dam broke.
Ethan moaned against his stepfather’s mouth, his hands moving up to grip the fabric of Nathan’s shirt, pulling him closer like a desperate, needy lion.
Nathan growled low in his throat, lifting Ethan effortlessly onto his lap, their bodies colliding with a force that sent sparks down Ethan’s spine.
The kiss was hungry, frantic, years of buried revelations erupting in a frenzy of heat and need. Nathan’s hands roamed Ethan’s body freely, his fingers tracing every inch of skin he had only dared to admire from afar.
Ethan’s fingers tangled in Nathan’s hair as he rocked against him, chasing friction, chasing the high of finally touching what he had craved for so long.
“This is insane,” Nathan muttered against Ethan’s lips, but his hands kept on betraying him, gripping Ethan’s waist like he never wanted to let go.
“Then let’s be insane,” Ethan whispered back, dragging his lips along Nathan’s jaw, his breath hot against his skin.
Nathan moaned, pushing Ethan back onto the mattress, his body pressing down against him.
Ethan gently flipped Nathan over and gripped his hair, pulling him closer into a kiss as Nathan inserted his dick into Ethan, giving him light heated strokes from below.
Only Nathan has ever made him feel this way, this was the most exciting sexual moment of his entire life.
Nathan's lips found its way to his neck, whispering, “you feel so good… ugh.” Ethan let out a struggle moan.
Nathan ran his hand across Ethan's chest, dragging him closer as he increased the intensity of his pounds. Nathan's cock brushing against his prostate.
Ethan could not hold back his moans as they got louder and louder.
He still tried to suppress it so he would not attract the attention of his mother and sister. He was almost sure that if he made the sound a bit higher than it was, they could wake up the entire neighborhood.
Sweat dripped from Nathan's body as he hovered over Ethan, his muscles contracted as he kept inserting his hard penis into Ethan's tight sweet butthole.
The taut feeling of Nathan's stomach gave a sign that he was about to cum. With an evil smirk and satisfying eyes, Nathan stopped and pulled out his cock. Nathan gasped at the feeling of emptiness.
Nathan then decided to focus more on Ethan's body at this point, he went down on him kneeling on the bed, he grabbed Ethan's stone-hard dick and began jerking it gently, he reached out for the bottle of oil that lay at the head of the bed frame.
Calmly stroking Ethan's dick up and down, he gave a peck to the rod, and with a swift motion, stuck it down his large throat.
He sucked Ethan's dick so well, went all balls deep, swallowing his two little balls. Spitting and biting lightly at intervals.
He gobbled on the dick for a couple of minutes more before Ethan's body began shaking, signifying that he had reached his own orgasm.
“I am about to cum…” Ethan said in a whispering tone alerting Nathan. Nathan decided to use both his hands to give Ethan the most amazing experience ever.
Ethan let out a groan and the first cum shot up but Nathan was quick enough to catch it with his tongue, he stuck the whole cock into his mouth and took in the rest of the cum, sucking it clean.
He opened his mouth showing Ethan the cum on his tongue, before going ahead to swallow the entire thing.
Ethan smiled… “Thank you so much…”
They lay there for a while, absorbing each other's scents. Slowly, they began kissing again, whispering love words to each other and enjoying each other's company.
Just as their passion reached its peak, the bedroom door swung open.
A gasp. A sharp intake of breath.
Nathan and Ethan froze, eyes wide, bodies tangled in the heat of their forbidden positions.
Standing
in the doorway, her mouth wide open, was Sarah.
The silence that followed was deafening
Ethan’s voice echoed into nothing.“Nathan?”The silence that followed was a punch to the chest. No footsteps. No doors creaking. No voice saying his name in that low, steady way that always made the world feel less chaotic.Just stillness.The house was too quiet. Too clean. Like Nathan had never existed inside it at all.Ethan stumbled through the hallway, pulling open closet doors, drawers, and the bedroom . Half of the closet was empty. The drawer that used to hold Nathan’s watches and cufflinks? Gone. The cologne Ethan used to borrow without asking was missing.“No…”He gripped the edge of the dresser, his breath catching in his throat. This wasn’t just a moment of space.Nathan had left.Without a word. Without a goodbye. Without a fight.Ethan’s legs gave out and he sank to the floor, his back against the wall, his chest heaving like it couldn’t decide whether to sob or scream. All around him, the silence roared.This was what heartbreak sounded like.Not yelling. Not violence
The silence was no longer peaceful.It was brittle. Ready to break.Ethan stood at the top of the stairs, staring down into the living room where Vanessa and Nathan sat across from each other. Not speaking. Not moving. Just… waiting.Waiting for the truth to crush them.He descended slowly, each step a thud in his chest. The moment Sarah had shown him the phone, the video, the sound of his own voice declaring love, it had all shattered something fragile inside him.Now, nothing could go back to how it was.Vanessa’s eyes rose to meet his. They were bloodshot, rimmed with betrayal. Not the fury he’d feared but worse. A quiet, haunted kind of heartbreak.“You should sit,” she said.He didn’t.Nathan turned toward him, his jaw tight. There were tears in his eyes but he blinked them away, burying them beneath a mask of resolve.“You told her?” Ethan asked, voice barely above a whisper.Nathan shook his head. “She overheard us. She recorded it.”Ethan’s eyes went to Vanessa. “And what did
The days after Nathan opened his office door felt like borrowed time.Ethan woke in the quiet warmth of Nathan’s sheets, the scent of his cologne still clinging to the pillows. They hadn’t said much after that kiss in the garden. But they didn't need to. In the hush of that moment, something had shifted.They were no longer hiding from each other.But that didn’t mean they weren’t still hiding from the world.Nathan moved carefully through the house. No more locked doors, but still no stolen kisses outside their shared silence. At breakfast, he was Nathan, the stepfather, the businessman. Only in those late hours behind closed doors did he become Nathan, the man Ethan loved.It was a dangerous illusion. And Ethan knew it couldn’t last.Sarah noticed first.She stood one morning at the top of the stairs, watching them from behind the railing. Nathan reached out to brush something from Ethan’s shoulder, his fingers lingering just a second too long. It was subtle. Too subtle for most.Bu
The new house was too quiet.Ethan stood in the hallway, one hand pressed to the wall as if trying to ground himself in this unfamiliar space. Everything about the house felt sterile. White walls. Marble floors. Silent hallways. A sanctuary Nathan had chosen to escape the old neighborhood’s watchful eyes. But it didn’t feel like home.Behind him, the door to Nathan’s office was closed. Locked. It had been for hours. Since the move, Nathan had grown distant again, buried in phone calls and schedules. Every time Ethan tried to reach for him, Nathan would pull away.Their moments had become brief. A brush of fingers when no one was watching. A lingering glance across the dinner table. Nothing more.It was like trying to hold on to smoke.Ethan walked into the living room, only to find Sarah sprawled across the couch, scrolling her phone. She looked up.“You look like you haven’t slept in days,” she said dryly.“Thanks,” Ethan replied, collapsing onto the other end of the couch.She ti
The Rivera-Cole household had never been quieter.After the move, Vanessa filled the silence with charity work and evening wine, Sarah vanished for longer hours at the university, and Nathan buried himself in contracts and board meetings. But Ethan felt this subtle collapse in the walls that once held their world together. It was in the way his mother avoided eye contact, the way Nathan’s hand no longer reached for his under the table, and the way his own breath caught whenever Mrs. Caldwell walked by their front gate with her judgmental smile.Everything felt like glass, shimmering and ready to shatter.Ethan sat on the back porch that afternoon, the sky overcast, a sketchpad resting on his lap. His fingers were stained with charcoal, but the lines he drew were lifeless abstract shadows of a world he couldn’t name. The sound of heels clicking against the wooden planks snapped his attention upward.Sarah.She leaned against the railing, a Red Bull in hand and a sarcastic grin on h
The moment the door slammed behind Ethan, the house felt colder.He stormed into the garden, his chest tight, lungs burning. His mind wouldn’t stop racing. How could Sarah do this? That recording that betrayal wasn’t just a threat to him and Nathan. It was a loaded gun, cocked and ready to destroy everything.He gripped the fence with white-knuckled hands, trying to breathe, trying to make sense of it all.Behind him, footsteps crunched on the gravel.Nathan.“I didn’t know she recorded anything,” he said, his voice low but urgent. “I swear to you, Ethan.”Ethan turned, eyes shining with a mix of heartbreak and fury. “None of this would’ve happened if we hadn’t let it go this far.”Nathan stepped forward, but Ethan pulled away.“I’m not saying I regret it,” Ethan added quickly. “But we weren’t careful. And now she’s holding it over us like blackmail.”“She’s just angry,” Nathan said, though his voice lacked conviction. “Maybe she won’t do anything with it.”Ethan laughed bitterly. “
