Page 7 of The Bathhouse (Roosters #10)

They undressed quickly and climbed onto the bed.

Reed lay on his back and watched as Joseph kneeled between his legs.

His arousal grew as Joseph licked a path down Reed’s chest, his hip, and over his leg.

He nuzzled the inside of Reed’s thigh, and then buried his face in his pubic hair.

What a wonderful feeling, when a lover knew exactly what he wanted.

Suddenly, wet heat engulfed Reed’s cock.

The tight compression made sparks explode behind his eyelids.

Fisting the sheets, Reed groaned and arched his back, while Joseph circled the head of his cock with his tongue.

One hand fisted Reed’s shaft the other caressed his balls.

Reed gave in to the pleasure, groaning while Joseph’s mouth and hands took him to new heights.

Reed’s breathing grew harsh as Joseph’s lips slid up and down his shaft. He wouldn’t last long at this rate, but just as he approached the brink of an orgasm, Joseph stopped. Reed let out a frustrated groan.

“I got you, Pogi.”

Joseph adjusted his position, rimmed Reed’s asshole with his tongue, then probed deep.

“Oh God, Babyboy. What are you doing to me?”

“I want to make you feel good, Pogi.”

“I do, but I need my happy ending.”

“Soon, but first I will give you what you need.”

Finally, Joseph took pity on him. His hot mouth returned to Reed’s cock, swallowing the length until it hit the back of his throat. No one else had ever made Reed feel so good. He threaded his fingers in Joseph’s silky hair and muttered incoherent words that spurred his lover on.

Joseph started sucking harder. Each heated pull of Joseph’s mouth brought Reed closer to the edge and the sight of Joseph’s lips stretched wide around his cock did him in. A demanding ache started low in his groin and built until sweat broke out on his forehead.

“Oh. Fuck!” Reed had reached the point of no return and he begged for an orgasm. No way could he hold back any longer. He blurted out a warning. “Gonna come.”

But Joseph wouldn’t stop. He gripped Reed’s thighs and sucked harder. Spasms seized Reed’s body. His hips arched and his balls drew up tight. He called out his lover’s name as he threw his head back in ecstasy and filled Joseph’s throat with his cum.

Joseph swallowed every last drop, his throat muscles working hard to keep up. At last, he released Reed’s spent cock and settled down next to him.

Reed pulled Joseph into his arms and held him in a tight embrace.

Having Joseph in his bed felt better than he’d imagined.

It felt right. They shared a passionate kiss, and he tasted his cum on Joseph’s tongue.

A wild surge of emotion made Reed’s chest ache.

He felt closer than ever to this man. Their new intimacy bridged the time and space that had separated them.

Reed’s walls began to crumble, allowing Joseph to reach a place deep inside him that had been closed off for years. “Mine,” he murmured. “My Babyboy.”

* * *

The struggle inside Joseph was something he hadn’t experienced before. Normally, he felt no guilt for using his body to get something he wanted but now his mind warred with his body, telling him that this was wrong. He was deceiving a man that he genuinely liked.

They’d spent a wonderful day together, had a fabulous dinner, and experiencing his city through Reed’s eyes made everything seem so fresh and vibrant. He couldn’t ask for a more perfect ending than enjoying Reed’s body. It capped the day, like icing on a cake, making a good thing even better.

The renewed connection between him and Reed felt so right, like something he’d been missing for years.

He’d often thought of Pogi, the handsome boy whose virginity he’d taken in the bathhouse, but his life had taken a wrong turn and he’d had to focus on returning to Manila and finding work.

Now he wondered if this reunion could be their destiny, the start of something real between them.

He was only fooling himself. They were too different. Why would Reed want him for anything more than sex? Joseph reminded himself that he wasn’t looking for romance, just a ticket to a better life. He would enjoy this for what it was.

“What’s wrong, Joseph?”

“Nothing.” He rubbed his cheek against Reed’s. “I’m enjoying this. I liked it when you called me your Babyboy.”

Reed looked surprised. “Did I say that?”

“Yes. I know men often say things they don’t mean when they come, but it made me feel good.”

“Well, you made me feel good. Very good.”

“I’m glad, but we’re just getting started.”

Reed’s mouth came down on his, making him forget the rest of his words. Snuggling closer, Joseph felt Reed’s cock grow hard again. Soon Reed would be ready to fuck him.

“Being together like this feels so good, Pogi,” Joseph whispered. “Do you want to rest or fuck me now?”

“No.” Reed’s voice trailed off. “Fuck me,” he said at last. “I want to feel you inside me again.”

Joseph hid his surprise. He’d assumed a man in Reed’s position would want to be in charge, to top him.

Perhaps this would work out better. Maybe Joseph would end up in charge.

One way or another, he would make sure Reed felt beholden to him.

“That would be my pleasure, Pogi. I’ll make us both feel good. ”

Reed lay on his back. “There’s lube and condoms in the nightstand.”

Joseph felt a twinge of jealousy. “You came prepared? Did you have someone special in mind?”

Frown lines appeared between Reed’s brows. “No. I had no expectations. I threw them in my luggage just in case.”

“In case you got lucky.” Joseph chuckled. “And you did. I guarantee you’ll be glad you brought them.”

Reed watched Joseph grease his sheathed dick. “You’re killing me.” He groaned and pulled Joseph down for a kiss.

Joseph sat back while Reed brought his knees up and spread his legs.

Joseph’s voice was husky with desire as he slid one slick finger inside Reed’s ass. “Fuck, you look good like that.”

“Feels good.” Reed muttered and pushed back against Joseph’s hand.

Joseph added another finger. He crooked them and found a spot that made Reed’s breath catch in his throat. “You like that?”

“Yes. More.”

“I’ll give you what you need.”

Joseph pulled his fingers from Reed’s body and replaced them with his cock. Pushing past Reed’s resistant muscle, he slowly advanced, and then pulled back, doing it over and over until Reed was stretched. “You’re so tight, Pogi. I love how you grip my cock.”

Reed groaned and begged for more. Joseph’s heart raced as he started a steady rhythm.

The muscles contracting around his swollen flesh made him delirious with pleasure.

He groaned and muttered words of endearment in the Tagalog language.

Already, he was close to coming, but he wanted to make Reed come again, too.

“Come with me, Pogi,” Joseph said hoarsely. He wrapped his fingers around Reed’s cock and pumped.

Reed groaned helplessly. “What are you doing to me? I’m going to come again.”

“Do it, Pogi. Come for me.”

“Yes, yes, yes.” Reed splattered Joseph’s chest with his cum.

Seeing Reed’s climax sent Joseph to his own. One more thrust and he buried himself deep, letting out a deep growl of pleasure as his orgasm set him on fire. Then he collapsed on top of Reed and rolled them onto their sides.

Joseph basked in the glorious afterglow of good sex. A sense of completeness and affection overwhelmed him, and he didn’t want to move and ruin the moment.

Then Reed yawned and pulled away. He slipped under the blankets. “You need to leave in an hour or two. Better set an alarm.”

Anger rose in Joseph and his good feelings disappeared. “Don’t worry, I’ll be gone before morning.”

The cold dismissal cut Joseph to the quick. Reed had brushed him off as if he were a common whore. He would obey and do a walk of shame in the middle of the night, but not before he got some insurance.

When Reed’s steady snores indicated sleep, Joseph reached for his cell phone. Silently, he pushed aside the covers and positioned himself with Reed. After snapping several compromising photos, he dressed quickly and left the hotel.
