view moreEthan stepped into the pulsating heart of the club, where flashing lights danced across the crowded dance floor. The thumping bass reverberated through his body, and the air was electric with the energy of strangers united in their quest for a good time. He navigated through the sea of bodies, his eyes fixed on the bar, where he intended to lose himself for the night.
As he took a seat at the bar, the bartender raised an eyebrow at Ethan's tailored suit and air of confidence. "What can I get you?" He asked, his voice raised over the music.
"The most expensive drink you have." Ethan replied, his voice firm.
The bartender nodded and slid a glass of amber liquid toward Ethan. He tossed it back, feeling the burn all the way down. The music seemed to grow louder, the lights flashing faster, as he lost himself in the rhythm.
Before long, Ethan was drunk, his inhibitions shed like a skin he no longer needed. He got up from his seat and stumbled through the crowd, the flashing lights and pulsating music fueling his reckless abandon. He made his way to the DJ booth, snatching the microphone from the DJ's hand. The DJ protested, "Hey, give that back!" But Ethan ignored him, walking away with the mic.
Ethan staggered back to the bar, microphone in hand, and climbed onto the table. The crowd's attention turned to him, curious about the commotion. With a drunken grin, Ethan raised the microphone to his lips.
"Tonight." He slurred. "All drinks are on me!"
The crowd erupted into cheers and applause, whistles and shouts filling the air. Ethan laughed, feeling a rush of freedom. "Party to your heart's content!" He yelled, before tossing the microphone aside.
The music roared back to life, and the crowd surged forward, dancing and laughing. Ethan stumbled, almost losing his balance on the table, but managed to steady himself, basking in the chaos and revelry he'd unleashed.
Tomorrow was his 26th birthday as well as his engagement party. He'll be getting engaged to a girl he's only met once. Not because of love, but because their families can offer each other the most profitable business alliance.
His parents didn't' even know he was not attracted to women, neither did he dare to openly come out knowing what will be at risk. The heir to a billion-dollar corporation being gay would be a devastating scandal, and that would ruin his father the most. Ethan didn't have the energy to put up with all that, and that's why he simply agreed to getting married. But one thing was sure... He would never be able to give that girl the love she deserves, and he'd make sure to make that clear to her soon enough.
He came to the bar tonight as his last act of rebellion before he gets trapped in a marriage he doesn't even want.
Through the noise and flashing lights, Ethan noticed a stranger watching him from across the room. His chiseled features and piercing eyes seemed almost otherworldly under the flashing lights. Dark hair framed his sharp jawline, and a small smile played on his lips as he watched Ethan with an intensity that made Ethan's heart skip a beat. The stranger's presence was captivating, drawing Ethan in with an irresistible pull.
For once in his life, Ethan wanted to do something for himself. Without thinking at all, he pushed his way through the crowd, walked up to the stranger and kissed him right on the lips, he'd expected the man to push him away, but that didn't happen. The stranger was frozen for a moment, but when he regained himself, he wrapped his hand around Ethan's waist, pulling him closer as he deepened the kiss, a kiss that was more than enough to make Ethan lose all his senses.
Things began to get heated and Ethan had to pull away for a second to catch his breath. "Wait.'' He said, breathlessly. "Not here."
"Damn it!" The stranger grunted, his impatience evident in his voice. "Come with me." He took Ethan's hand and dragged him out of the bar.
"Where are we going?" Ethan asked, struggling to stand up straight.
"A hotel. Get in.'' The stranger didn't give Ethan the chance to ask more questions. He guided him into the car, slamming the door shut behind him. He swiftly took the driver's seat and sped off toward the nearest hotel he could find.
****
They were finally at the hotel. Ethan who was obviously still drunk didn't even resist when the stranger slammed his lips against his in a heated moment of passion.
Soon, their clothes went flying across the room. Both fully naked now, the man pushed Ethan on the king sized bed and stared at him with a burning intensity in his eyes.
Ethan, fully captivated by the stranger's sexiness was far too gone to even think about his actions. He couldn't stop now, it was far too late to stop now.
The stranger slowly got on top of him while staring deeply at his face, taking in every inch of him, memorizing every feature.
He began trailing wet kisses down his body, kissing every inch, as if worshipping him.
Ethan grew impatient by the minute. He grabbed a fist full of his hair, pushed his face towards his and kissed him with such hunger and an urgency that made the stranger giddy with need.
Ethan let out a soft moan as his body trembled beneath the stranger's, his hips slowly thrusting back and forth.
"Please." He cried, begging for more. He wanted more of his touch, he wanted more of everything.
The stranger swiftly turned him around.
"I'll try to be gentle." The stranger whispered in his ear, then gently sucked on his earlobe.
They spent a very wild and passionate night together, having sex more than once, and to Ethan—it was worth every bit and he enjoyed every single bit of it.
Ethan woke up the next day to an empty bed with no sign of the stranger, only his necklace which he must have forgotten and his amazing scent that still lingered in the air, reminding Ethan of the passionate night they'd spent.
The stranger was now a part of Ethan, and the memories of their night together was something he would remember for a very long time....
Ethan stood on the terrace, gazing up at the night sky, quietly admiring the stars. Alex walked into the room and spotted him. A smile spread across his face as he walked over, leaned in, and kissed Ethan's cheek, making him smile in return. He handed Ethan the hot chocolate he had prepared, and Ethan thanked him warmly."Are you cold?" Alex asked."A little." Ethan admitted."Hold on." Alex said. He went to the wardrobe, pulled out a small blanket, and returned to wrap it gently around Ethan's shoulders. Sliding his arm around Ethan's waist, he pulled him closer. "How's this?" He asked softly. Ethan smiled. "Much better." He took a sip of the hot chocolate and sighed happily. "Mmm... this is really good. Thank you, babe." He leaned in and kissed Alex's cheek."I'm glad you like it." Alex replied with a smile.Together, they stood side by side, wrapped in warmth, looking up at the stars in peaceful silence.Ethan sighed deeply, breaking the silence. ''What’s going to happen now?''
Morning sunlight streamed softly through the window. Ethan lay fast asleep in Alex’s arms, while Alex sat propped up, gazing down at him with love and admiration. He couldn’t believe how much he had missed this—waking up with Ethan close to him, safe in his embrace. The memories of last night lingered in his mind. It had been wild, passionate, and unforgettable. Every moment they shared felt new and overwhelming, each one more beautiful than the last. Alex smiled as he gently caressed Ethan’s cheek, his finger trailing to his lips, brushing them softly. Ethan stirred in his sleep, his eyes fluttering open. When he saw Alex, he smiled warmly. Alex leaned down and kissed him deeply. But before things could grow more intense, Ethan pulled back with a pout. ''As much as I’d love to make love to you right now, I’m still sore from last night. My whole body aches.'' Alex laughed, his voice light and teasing. ''I’m sorry, baby. You should rest more. I’ll go make you breakfast.'' Etha
When they finally arrived at Alex’s mansion, Ethan stood outside, frozen with hesitation. His heart pounded in his chest, fear and uncertainty holding him back. Bethany gently tugged his arm, pulling him inside. She led him upstairs to Alex’s room. As they stopped outside the door, Ethan’s pulse quickened. He wanted to turn and leave immediately—he didn’t know how he could face Alex after everything. Bethany put on a sad expression. ''He’s in really bad shape, Ethan.'' She said softly. Ethan frowned, confusion clouding his face. "I don’t understand.'' ''You should go see him.'' Bethany urged. ''Maybe it’ll help him feel better.'' Ethan’s fear grew stronger, his mind racing with terrible possibilities. He hurriedly pushed the door open and stepped inside. Bethany smirked quietly, then closed the door behind him. She locked it gently and whispered. ''I hope you two can settle this.'' With that, she walked away. Inside, the room was dark. ''Alex?'' Ethan called out,
It had been two days, yet Mr. Fabian still refused to let Ethan out of his room. Ethan banged on the door, shouting to be released. When no one answered, he kicked the door in anger and ran a hand through his hair in frustration. Just as he turned toward the window, he heard the sound of the door unlocking. He spun around sharply. Standing there was his mother, her eyes filled with sadness as she looked at him pitifully. ''Mom.'' Ethan whispered, rushing forward to hug her. ''My dear.'' Mrs. Diane murmured, her voice heavy with emotion as she held him close. When Ethan finally pulled away, he asked. ''Why is Father doing this to me? Locking me up, taking my phone, even having the guards drug me just to stop me from leaving?'' Mrs. Diane sighed. ''Your father is doing everything to make sure your wedding with Lily happens. He doesn’t want you running away.''Ethan scoffed bitterly. ''I don’t love Lily. I don’t want to marry her.'' Her expression grew even sadder. ''I’m sorry,
