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....
"Alex! Alex!" Ethan called out in panic as he rushed into the office.Alex immediately dropped what he was doing and hurried to meet him, concern etched across his face. "Relax, babe. What's going on?"Ethan's eyes were wide with worry. "It's Marcel. He knows about us.''"What?" Alex blinked. "How's that possible? Did you tell him?"Ethan shook his head. "How could I? He followed you to the garden last night. That's when he saw everything and even took some photos as evidence."Alex cursed under his breath. "Shit."Ethan began to pace, his voice trembling. "What are we going to do now? It's Marcel today, what if someone else finds out tomorrow? What happens when everyone knows? What's going to happen to us? I...I can't..." His breathing grew shallow, panic rising fast. "Hey, hey, hey." Alex said gently, stepping closer. He cupped Ethan's face, his voice barely above a whisper. "Look at me. It's going to be alright."Ethan shook his head, tears brimming in his eyes. "No, Alex. Nothing
Marcel sat in his office, his mind racing."Ethan and Alex?" He muttered, still struggling to believe what he'd seen the night before.He'd always supported Ethan. Never judged him. Being gay was never the issue.But this... this was different.He picked up his phone from the desk and scrolled through the photos he'd taken—clear shots of Ethan and Alex kissing in the garden.It was real. They were together.He couldn't stay silent, even if he wanted to.Without hesitation, he called Ethan. Ethan answered, sounding distracted. "I'm at work, Marcel. Can we talk later?"But Marcel wasn't having it. "No. This is important. I need to see you now."Ethan hesitated, but Marcel's tone left no room for argument. "Alright. Where?"Marcel gave him the location, then ended the call.He stood up, grabbed the keys, and left his office.The place Marcel had asked to meet was a small coffee shop that's hardly filled with customers.Ethan stepped inside and spotted him immediately—seated alone at a c
Alex stepped into the venue, the soft hum of music and chatter filling the air. His eyes scanned the hall immediately, searching for Ethan, but he couldn't find him.Across the room, Marcel was chatting with a few ladies. He noticed Alex and quickly excused himself, walking over with a grin."Alex, you're just in time for the best part." Marcel said.Alex nodded, barely listening. "Where's Ethan?"Marcel raised a brow, surprised that Alex asked about Ethan before even mentioning his sister. But he didn't dwell on it. "He went to get Lily. They'll be here any moment."Just then, the MC's voice rang out through the speakers. "Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to welcome the birthday celebrant! Please give a warm round applause for Miss Lily Ray and her fiance, Mr. Ethan Miller!"The crowd erupted in cheers and clapping.From backstage, Lily and Ethan emerged.Lily wore a stunning white gown that shimmered with diamond accents, her smile radiant. Ethan walked beside her in an all-white sui
Alex and Ethan arrived at the jewelry store in Alex's car, but Ethan hesitated to step out.He turned to Alex, worry etched across his face. "Are you sure this is okay? What if someone sees us together? I told you we could've shopped for her gift separately."Alex sighed, then reached for Ethan's hand, his voice gentle and reassuring. "I already told you, baby—there's nothing to worry about. It's not a big deal if we shop for Lily's gift together. I knew you'd be nervous, that's why I chose this store. It's quiet, not too popular, and hardly ever crowded."Ethan looked at him, still unsure. "You're sure?"Alex smiled. "Trust me, baby." Ethan finally exhaled, the tension easing from his shoulders. "Fine. But you better be right about this... or you'll be in trouble."Alex chuckled and kissed the back of Ethan's hand. "Don't worry, baby. Just trust me."Ethan opened the car door and stepped out. Alex followed close behind.Half an hour later, Ethan and Alex stepped out of the jewelry s
Alex guided a blindfolded Ethan down the hallway, his hand gently resting on Ethan’s back.Ethan laughed. ''Where are you taking me, Alex?''''We’re almost there, baby.'' Alex replied with a smile.They reached the door. Alex opened it, led Ethan inside, and quietly shut it behind them. He paused, taking a deep breath. He wasn’t sure how Ethan would react, but it was time.He reached up and carefully removed the blindfold.Ethan blinked as his eyes adjusted to the light. Then his jaw dropped. His eyes widened in shock.He looked around, speechless.The room glowed with soft red LED lights. In the center stood a massive water bed, and on top of it—a sleek black box filled with every imaginable BDSM tool.Ethan’s legs felt weak. He turned to Alex slowly, disbelief written all over his face.''Alex!'' He said, stunned.Alex swallowed hard. He’d expected this reaction, but it still made his heart race.Trying to stay calm, he asked. ''Do you… like it?''Ethan’s eyes didn’t leave the bed.
Alex and Ethan arrived at the company in Alex’s car. As they parked, Ethan turned to him with a small smile. ''I’ll go in first.'' He said.But just as he reached for the door, Alex held his hand, stopping him.Ethan turned, confused. ''What’s wrong?''Alex looked at him for a moment, his eyes searching. ''I’ve noticed you’ve been quiet since we left home. Are you okay?''Ethan forced a small, reassuring smile. ''It’s nothing. I’m fine. Don’t worry so much.''But Alex didn’t let it go. ''I know it’s not nothing. Talk to me. Please.''Maybe it was the way Alex looked at him—the concern in his eyes, the softness in his voice. Ethan sighed. ''I overheard your conversation with Lily.''That was all Alex needed to understand.''Baby…'' He said quietly.Ethan continued, his voice low. ''I know it’s too much. The weight of keeping our relationship a secret… I feel sorry, Alex. I wish things weren’t this complicated. If I wasn’t engaged to Lily, maybe things would’ve been easier.''Alex shook
