“You will respect Mistress Lynette,” Winnie shot back.

Rake ignored their sniping as he guided Shaun to the bathroom, fresh towels in hand. Once inside, Shaun began to undress himself, but Rake took over. He pulled DJ’s borrowed sweatshirt over Shaun’s head, feeding each arm through the sleeves. Then he slid the shorts down Shaun’s legs, leaving him bare.

Given the circumstances, Rake shouldn’t have been aroused. His body took interest anyway.

Shaun peeked up at him through his eyelashes. “Are we getting in together?”

“Of course.” He grimaced at the sheer amount of dried blood on his work shirt as he took it off. “I don’t think that’ll come out in the wash.”

Once undressed, Rake pushed Shaun into the shower ahead of him. It wasn’t large, but Rake didn’t mind being in such close proximity to Shaun. They pressed up against each other, Shaun’s head coming to rest on Rake’s chest.

They didn’t clean so much as let the water rain down upon them, with occasional attempts at using some body wash. It was difficult to move when Shaun’s arms wound tight around Rake’s middle in a hold he didn’t think he’d be able to break, even if he wanted to.

Rake stood watching his blood drain away down the plughole until the water ran clean. He felt on the verge of being overwhelmed and needed desperately to regain some semblance of control. Normally, he’d do a scene to level himself out. They didn’t have time for that, but he could at least silence the voice in his head that told he was spiralling.

He reached down between them, taking Shaun’s cock in hand. “Is this okay?” Rake asked him.

“Rake…” Shaun said, concern colouring his tone.

Rake removed his hand. “You don’t want me to touch you?”

“I do. God, of course I do. But with everything—”

“You can best bet that if DJ was here, he’d be wanting to do the same. We both need the release.” Rake stroked Shaun up and down, gratified at how his cock hardened under his touch.

Rake’s fangs extended as he lowered his mouth to Shaun’s shoulder, scraping his teeth along his collarbone. Every sense intensified, from the heat of the water as it trickled down his body, to the aroma of the body wash and, most of all, the need to lose himself in Shaun.

“Bite me,” Shaun begged.

Rake drew his fangs up Shaun’s neck, though he didn’t pierce his skin.

“Sir, please. Just a taste.”

Rake couldn’t resist. He bit, marvelling at the sweetness that burst onto his tongue.

Shaun rutted against Rake’s leg, and Rake ground himself against Shaun’s abdomen, but neither had enough friction to get off. Rake decided enough was enough and spun Shaun around. “Hands on the wall,” Rake commanded.

Shaun shuddered as he obeyed. Rake got down on his knees and spread Shaun’s cheeks, watching as the water slid down his crack. He leaned forward and drew his tongue, still coated in blood, right across Shaun’s hole. Shaun pushed back against him, desperate and wanton in all the ways Rake liked.

When Rake speared his tongue right into Shaun’s hole,Shaun gasped. “Rake!”

It occurred then to Rake that they had guests in the flat. Specifically, guests who could hear through walls.

It only made him grip Shaun’s hips harder and thrust his tongue deeper.

“Oh my god, Rake,Sir, that’s—oh!” Shaun let out a litany of pleas as Rake pulled Shaun’s cock backwards between his legs, licking a stripe up from Shaun’s tightly drawn balls right to his hole, again and again until Shaun sobbed with need.

Rake removed his tongue, only to replace it with two fingers, aiming for Shaun’s prostate. A few deft movements, and Shaun yelled as he came against the shower wall. It only took Rake a few frantic tugs of his own cock to shoot into the drain.

He stood up and wrapped Shaun in his arms. Being able to tuck him under his chin was comforting, but made Rake ache for DJ. He should be there with them. Granted, it would be a squeeze to fit them all into the shower, but they’d make do. He held tighter to Shaun, using him like a security blanket.

After a while, Shaun lifted his head. “Should we get out?”

“Probably.”

“Definitely!” Kit responded from two rooms away.

Shaun huffed with laughter against Rake’s chest.
