Propped up by pillows, Jayden bent over and placed a light kiss on Stephan’s stomach. The man was seven months along now, and he couldn’t help but smile as he ran his hand over the rounded bump. But a clearing throat had him peering up at Stephan’s face. The man’s arms were crossed, and his bottom lip stuck out.

“Something wrong, Hunny Bunny?” Jayden chuckled.

“I’m not sitting on you nude so you can rub my belly. And while my dick has become increasingly hard to find lately, it’s still there, so get on with it!”

Grinning, he ran his finger along the underside of Stephan’s erect cock. It was pressed against the man’s stomach, and dripping pre-cum onto Jayden’s bare chest.

Wiggling, the man huffed. “Jade!”

Jayden laughed and sat up. The man squeaked as he slid down and toppled over onto his back, his thighs resting on Jayden’s. Hovering over him, Jayden placed a soft kiss on Stephan’s lips, but pulled back when the man tried to deepen it .

“Jade!” he whined.

Ah, his little man was impatient… Stephan had certainly fully embraced his desires over the past few months.

Saying nothing, Jayden glided his hand down Stephan’s stomach, before wrapping it around the man’s prick. His lover moaned as he gave it a few pumps, but whined again in frustration when Jayden quickly released it.

“Jade,” Stephan growled.

The growl turned into a gasp as Jayden slid his finger down Stephan’s tight sack, and brushed against the man’s wet bud. He blinked—wet?

Jayden found his finger easily slipped inside. “So that’s what you were doing in the bathroom,” he said, laughing.

“Yes, now hurry up!” Stephan snapped.

“I’m surprised you can still reach.”

Stephan gasped in outrage, his gaze narrowing on him. But before he was able to utter a single word, Jayden lined up his cock and slowly pushed inside.

“Oh!” His little man cried out as Jayden filled him.

After placing his hands on Stephan’s hips, Jayden gently thrusted into him. He let out a groan when the man’s hole clenched. His walls were as scorching as always. Jayden didn’t think he would ever get used to the feeling of being surrounded by him.

Stephan wiggled and moaned, letting out small whimpers of frustration as he tried to increase the pace of Jayden’s thrusts.

“Harder!” Stephan demanded.

Jayden chuckled. “I don’t want to hurt you.”

“This is torture,” Stephan whined pathetically. “Please…I need, Jade!”

The man’s pleas weren’t something Jayden could easily ignore. Against his better judgment, he pumped his hips faster, plunging harder into Stephan. Stephan moaned loudly in triumph, and met each of his thrusts. His lover’s prick dripped pre-cum onto his rounded belly, as Stephan’s cock bounced with each drive of Jayden’s hips. The sight had Jayden’s dick throbbing harder.

Jayden growled, his thrusts turning erratic as he reached between them and rubbed Stephan’s prick. The man moaned loudly, his cock twitching in Jayden’s hand. Stephan began to beg and whimper for more. Each mewl of need sent a bolt of pleasure through him.

With one last hard thrust, Jayden flooded Stephan’s hole with a groan. Seconds later, Stephan cried out, as well, his prick jerking as his cum shot out.

Jayden released the man’s softening prick, and his arm wobbled as he held himself over the man. After a few shuddered breaths, he pulled out, gathered his lover into his arms, and relaxed back onto the bed. Stephan nuzzled into his chest.

Once he regained control of his breathing, Jayden asked, “You’re not going to stop me, or tell me not to go?”

“No,” Stephan rasped. Wiggling, he turned to face Jayden.

“Why?”

“They deserve whatever you do to them. Just…make sure to come back to us.”

Smiling, he ran his hand over Stephan’s stomach. “I’ll always come back. I would never leave you and our little girl alone.”

“You can’t promise that…”

Jayden sighed. “I suppose, you’re right. Can you promise me something? ”

“What?”

“If something does happen—not that it will—promise me you’ll take care of yourself and the baby. Promise me that you’ll eat properly, and not lift things you shouldn’t.”

“I’ll be fine,” Stephan growled. “And I’ve been taking care of myself just fine, thank you very much! I would never do anything to endanger our child!”

“Stephan…you threw a chair at me.”

“I missed!”

“Only because it was too heavy. You could have hurt yourself.” When Stephan narrowed his eyes, Jayden quickly added, “Not that you weren’t right to be angry. I shouldn’t have eaten the last piece of chocolate-chip cookie-dough cheesecake.”

“It was my favorite!” Stephan snapped. His bottom lip began to wobble.

Jayden’s eyes widened—oh shit, that wasn’t good. He’d discovered quickly that baby hormones were terrifying. And Stephan in a fit usually sent him fleeing to Dante’s, crowd be damned.

“I know,” Jayden soothed. “But I apologized. I even bought two full ones, just for you. And we also have one down in the fridge right at this very moment, remember, Sweetie?”

His little plush lips stopped wobbling, and Stephan beamed. “We do?”

“Yes, we do. Why don’t I go get you a piece or two?”

“Oh! Yes, that sounds wonderful!”

“Right then, I’ll go get it,” Jayden murmured softly, and slid out of the bed.

His hand was on the doorknob when Stephan giggled. “Um, Jade, you might want to put some pants on. ”

Freezing, Jayden looked down at himself. “Uh…right.”

Night had come fast, and he used it as cover as he hid behind a tree. Nearby was a looming three-story house. With white walls, and a gray roof, it was exactly as he remembered, down to the large bay windows. It was a house Jayden had lived in, but never called home. Homes were supposed to be warm and loving. This one seemed cold, even on the outside.

“Danger!” Bow cried.

Well, shit. He should have expected this. Bow was…well, child-him. It was only normal that he’d fear this place.

He startled when a branch snapped beside him, but huffed when he recognized the scent, or rather, scents.

“You two taking up stalking on the side?”

“Why not? Nothing wrong with having hobbies,” Liam drawled.

Dante stood silently beside the man, grinning stupidly.

“Well, now I know why Stephan didn’t stop me,” Jayden grumbled, and then snapped, “I don’t need help.”

His boss pursed his lips. “We’re not really here to help. While I would never deny you your revenge, they still need to be tried.”

Jayden growled in frustration.

Dante laughed. “Now, now, I didn’t say you couldn’t hurt them today.”

“Please…please. They’ll hurt us. Please…” Bow sobbed .

Seeing his younger self break down brought tears to his eyes.

“Bow, calm down. We’re here to make them pay,” Jayden coaxed.

He whimpered, “No, you don’t understand!”

“He doesn’t like being here, does he?” Liam asked.

“No,” he murmured gruffly. “Bow’s scared.”

Jayden gasped when Bow toppled over, screaming. Images flashed through his mind. Memories that were hidden, burst forward. Then he saw them—his parents. They were clear for the first time. His memory was finally complete.

“Bow…”

“What? What happened?” Dante asked, his eyes glowing.

“Did you hide them, Bow?”

Staring at him with tear-stained cheeks, Bow nodded. “I had to…they would have found us…hurt us… I had to!”

“Oh, Bow…”

He cried, “It doesn’t matter now! We’re here! They’ll hurt us now!”

“No, Bow, we’ll hurt them.”

Watching his little monster fall into despair was so painful. Jayden wanted to protect him—to comfort him. But was there a way? There had to be…

Taking a deep breath, he focused on the emptiness surrounding Bow. Closing his eyes, Jayden imagined he was there, beside the small child.

And then he was. The house was gone, Liam and Dante were gone, the only thing around him now was darkness, and Bow…

He kneeled and pulled the sobbing child into his arms. Bow jerked in surprise at the first touch, staring at him with his eyes wide.

“How are you here?”

“I don’t know, and I don’t care,” Jayden admitted. “You’re safe now, Bow.”

Bow tilted his head, his tears slowing. “S-safe?”

“Safe. They can’t hurt either of us now. Because we’re strong.”

“Strong?” Bow sniffled, parroting him.

“Yes, and they can’t hurt you, because I won’t let them.”

“You’ll protect me?”

“Yes.”

Bow beamed and hugged him back. “Safe,” he said, sighing happily.

Jayden’s eyes snapped open again. He was back. Dante and Liam were staring at him, looking worried.

“Is everything okay?” Dante asked, his brows furrowed.

“Everything’s fine now. Bow…just needed some reassurance.”

“I see.”

Grinning devilishly, he said, “Let’s go have some fun.”

“My favorite kind of fun.” Liam rubbed his hands together. The man’s eyes were now completely black.

Dante eyed both of them with a hint of suspicion in his gaze... “You can’t kill them yet.”

“Define ‘kill’.” Liam chuckled darkly.

“As in…their heart is no longer beating.”

“Hmm, so leave their hearts beating? Can they stop and then start again? Or do they have to continuously beat the whole time?” Liam hummed.

“You can’t kill them!” Dante growled. “Why the hell did I even bring you with me? ”

“I was wondering that myself,” Liam drawled.

“Yeah, yeah, yeah. Argue later—it’s time to go.” Jayden started toward the house, with the two men following him.

“We’re going to hurt them?” Bow gave him a watery smile.

“Yes. We’re going to make them bleed.”

Jayden grinned when Bow let out a happy squeal and clapped his hands. It was time to have a nice little talk with his parents.
