Claiming Marcus (Lords of Discord 1)

“You eat the pizza. I’m hungry for something else.” Marcus attacked Ethan’s belt and pants.

Ethan leaned back on his hands and smiled at Marcus as he worked on pulling Ethan’s jeans down to his thighs. “You can’t fool me. I know vampires can’t survive on cum.”

Marcus leaned down and nuzzled Ethan’s cock through his cotton boxer briefs. “That’s just an appetizer. I’m craving you tonight. I want to christen our bedroom. Make it ours.”

Ethan gave up trying to argue or talk any sense into Marcus when his lover freed his cock from his briefs. “Your fangs better be packed away,” Ethan warned.

Marcus looked up, smiling broadly at him. Ethan could clearly see the fangs slide away. Yes, Marcus biting him was a major turn-on, but sadly, that turn-on stopped when it came to fangs in his dick.

Lowering his head again, Marcus licked and lightly sucked the head of his cock, teasing him, before finally taking his dick into his mouth. And then Ethan was in heaven. It was the first time Marcus had sucked him, and Ethan was content to lie there and enjoy every touch. But that relaxation ended too quickly as Marcus found his rhythm, driving Ethan toward an orgasm.

“Marcus,” he whimpered, trying to warn him that he was going to come soon. Fingers slipped under his sac, massaging his balls and sliding along his perineum. How Marcus always knew the perfect ways to tease and drive him insane was amazing. It was as if his body were the keys of a piano. Marcus was a master at playing him.

“Oh God, please, baby. So close. Please,” he begged. He gripped the edge of the dresser, his head tilted as he lightly thrust into Marcus’s mouth. Marcus tightened one hand on his hip and sped up his movement on his dick. He was a fucking goner. Ethan shouted and came hard down Marcus’s throat.

Ethan collapsed against the dresser, his body spread out like a damn human sacrifice. He shivered as Marcus sucked and licked his cock clean before letting it slide from his mouth. He blinked and looked up to find Marcus leaning over him with a smug smile.

“Pleased with yourself?” Ethan murmured. He was content to lie there for the rest of the night.

“Very. You?”

“Oh, fuck yeah. At least we’ve got this room christened.”

Marcus glanced around as if assessing Ethan’s comment. “It’ll do for now. We still need to break in the sofa.”

Ethan laughed and then made a lame grab for his underwear. He missed and didn’t try again. He was in no rush to get dressed. “As big as this house is, at least I know you’re not going to get bored with me soon.”

Marcus’s expression turned dark as he looked at Ethan. “How could I grow bored with you? I told you I love you. Don’t you believe me?”

“Of course I believe you. It’s not that.” Ethan sat up and started pulling his pants back into place, but it was too difficult still seated on the damn dresser. He hadn’t meant for this conversation to get so serious. He hopped to his feet and put his clothes to rights again, but it also gave Marcus a chance to move so that he was standing directly in front of Ethan.

“Then tell me. What is bothering you?”

“It’s nothing. Something Victoria mentioned. I’m just being neurotic. We should head downstairs. The pizza guy is gonna be here soon.”

“The pizza guy can wait. Please tell me what has you neurotic.”

Ethan sighed. He leaned against the dresser and kept his eyes on the line of T-shirts Marcus had hung up. They were organized by color as well, touching some hidden part of his heart. “She was telling me that most pets don’t last long. Maybe only a couple of years at most. Sounded like most died or were given away to other vampires. That vampires…sort of got bored. I guess it just got stuck in my head.”

Marcus stunned him by grabbing his hips and lifting him so that he was seated on the dresser again. He lowered himself just enough that Ethan was forced to meet his direct gaze.

“You are not a pet, Ethan. If I must tell you this every night for the rest of our lives together, then I will, but you will believe me.”

“But—”

“There is no ‘but’ in this argument. I am not going to grow bored with you. I’m not going to give you to another vampire. I’m definitely never going to harm you in such a way that it ends your life. I. Love. You.”

“What about when I’m old? Right now, I’m young and sexy. What about when I’m fifty and you still look twentysomething?”

Marcus cocked his head slightly to the side as he stared at Ethan. “Would you like me to change you to a vampire so that you’re always this age?”
