The Broken Road (4 page)

Ryen kissed Kason’s chest, right where his heart thudded. “God, Kason, you’re so beautiful.”

Kason gazed at Ryen from under his eyelashes. “And you’re gorgeous, Ryen.” He leaned in for a kiss. “Make love to me. I want you inside of me.”

“Hell, yes.” Ryen helped Kason lie on his side with a pillow under his hips then moved behind him after grabbing the lube and condoms.

Pressing himself against Kason’s back, Ryen nestled his erection against his ass. He swore he could almost feel the heat and hardness, he had sucked Ryen earlier and knew how big he was, he was going to fill him completely once he was inside him. And he couldn’t wait.

Ryen wrapped his arms around Kason, sliding one arm under his torso, holding him close and kissing him softly. “How’s this?”

Turning slightly so he could see Ryen, Kason replied, “Perfect.”

Ryen ran his hands down Kason’s chest, then caressed his nipples. “Just remember, there’s no, rush. We have all night.” He kissed Kason softly. “And I for one don’t want to sleep.”

Kason grinned. “Me either.”

They kissed for long moments and Ryen reached down, lightly stroking Kason’s renewed erection to full hardness as his mouth worshiped Kason’s shoulders, neck, and throat, leaving Kason begging for more. Ryen had already picked up that his shoulders and neck were an erogenous zone and seemed to be focused on driving him crazy. Not that he was complaining. Not one bit.

“Take me, Ryen,” Kason whispered.

“Yeah, need you.” Ryen hissed as Kason reached back to stroke him. “But I have to prepare you first, baby.”

Ryen reached for the lube and slicked the fingers of one hand and traced Kason’s opening. Kason almost felt the echo of a touch. He could almost feel Ryen’s digits slipping in. Pressing his chest against Kason’s back and holding him close with his arm still around him, Ryen began kissing his neck again, leaving a mark and soothing it with his tongue.

Kason lost track of what Ryen was doing until he stroked his prostate. He arched and moaned, pressing back as his cock twitched. He definitely could be stimulated there. He pleaded for Ryen to do it again and he did, tingles of pleasure running him.

Ryen nipped Kason’s earlobe. “Easy, I know what you want. Just a few more minutes, hold on for me.”

“Hurry,” Kason pleaded as he shuddered with desire. “I really want you inside me.”

Ryen kissed Kason hungrily. “You will, just enjoy this.”

“I am. So good.” Kason panted and turned to capture Ryen’s lips against his. They locked gazes, and Kason’s heart skipped a beat. He could see Ryen’s affection and desire and it only made him ache more. “Stop teasing me, Ryen.” He reached back and roughly stroked his lover, who let out a loud moan.

Ryen kissed Kason’s neck. “Not teasing,” he whispered as he withdrew his fingers. “Enjoying you and how gorgeous you are. So damn sexy.”

Kason blushed and that got Ryen to grin. Damn if his smile didn’t make Kason want him that much more.

“Please, I might come and I don’t want to yet.”

“Not until I’m inside you. Lemme get the condom.”

“Let me put it on.” Kason took it from Ryen and ripped open the foil packet. He turned in Ryen’s arms and sheathed him with the rubber, stroking and lubing him up as Ryen moaned and bucked into his fist.

After Kason rolled back onto his side, Ryen placed the head of his cock against Kason’s opening. He slid his leg between Kason’s thighs and pulled his hips back a bit. Kason grabbed his leg and bent it up towards his chest, exposing himself and giving Ryen better access.

“God, you’re so tight,” Ryen whispered. He slowly worked his way inside, inch by inch as Kason whimpered with need. When he was all the way in, he went completely still, giving Kason’s body time to adjust to his presence. He had one arm still wrapped around Kason’s chest and he held him close.

Again Kason swore he felt the heat from Ryen. His hard shaft buried deep inside, filling him completely. It was good, really good.

“How you feeling?” Ryen rubbed his hip. “You okay?”

“Oh yeah, brain might be fried but I’m good.” Kason put his hand over Ryen’s and squeezed as Ryen chuckled. Ryen interlaced their fingers so they were holding hands. He smiled, and gazed back at Ryen. “Go slow, ’kay? I want it to last.”

“Me, too…” Ryen pulled back gently then thrust in again. He kept his motions slow and shallow.

They moved against each other in a steady pace—rocking together in a deliberate but controlled rhythm that would slowly bring them both to completion. Ryen rolled his hips and angled himself so that each gentle stroke brushed Kason’s prostate, eliciting a series of groans and gasps from him. Twice they had to pause and breathe deeply to keep from coming too soon. They would lie still and kiss until the urgency passed. Kason was desperate to come but at the same time he wanted this moment to last forever. He was connected with Ryen and there was no better feeling than being made love to like this.

Soon they were sweaty and breathing hard though. Ryen nuzzled into Kason’s neck as he thrust, kissing and sucking hard on his shoulder and leaving another vivid mark.

That nearly threw Kason over the edge. “Babe, please, touch me. I’m gonna lose it.”

Ryen moved their joined hands to his groin. Together they stroked his shaft up and down. Kason cried out as his balls drew up and his dick swelled in their grasp.

“Let go for me, Kason. I want you to come.”

“Yes!” Kason arched back and Ryen sensed his need, increasing the pace as he thrust harder, taking Kason along for the ride as his body was claimed by Ryen. He gave in to the pleasure. “Just like that…right there! Harder, please,” Kason cried. “So close.”

Ryen increased the intensity of his thrusts, groaning with effort as he pounded into Kason. “So beautiful, my Kason,” Ryen whispered in Kason’s ear, nipping it gently. “Come for me.”

“Ryen!” Kason gasped as his orgasm suddenly burst from him. His cum exploded over his groin and their hands, as his muscles clenched around Ryen’s cock.

Ryen milked all of Kason’s release from him as he came in long hot spurts of pearly semen. He continued to thrust hard and fast into Kason through his orgasm, prolonging and intensifying his climax. Kason began to whimper as waves of pleasure rolled through him.

Ryen pressed tightly against Kason’s sweaty back. With a moan, his hips began to jerk in a final, frenzied rhythm, and he emptied himself deep into the condom, still sheathed in Kason, crying out Kason’s name.

He buried his face in the curve of Kason’s neck. His softening member was still buried in Kason’s trembling body. Kason clutched Ryen’s hand tighter and let his lover hold him. He was feeling too good to even move. And he knew for certain he was falling harder, with each moment, for Ryen. He had made him forget he was even in a wheelchair. They stayed like that for a long time until Ryen pressed tender kisses to Kason’s neck.

“Damn, that was incredible,” Ryen breathed against his skin.

Knowing that Ryen had enjoyed it filled Kason with happiness and confidence. It’d taken a little work, but not as much as he had thought. They’d been in sync and he had given and taken pleasure. He only hoped Ryen wanted to do it again because he sure did. Though right now he felt like a puddle of goo. “Yeah, that was just…wow…just wow.”

Ryen chuckled. “I didn’t hurt you, did I?”

“Nope, I’m good.”

Ryen slipped from his body and he got up to toss the condom. “I’ll get us a washcloth.” He paused. “You’ll stay, right?”

“Not a chance I’m leaving after that.” Kason let his gaze travel over Ryen’s toned body. “I’m hoping for a repeat performance later.”

“You can count on that.” Ryen grinned. He ducked into the bathroom then came back with a washcloth, tenderly cleaning Kason up. Then they got under the covers, and sated and tired out, Kason curled up and fell asleep on Ryen’s chest.

* * * *

It was well after midnight when Kason woke in Ryen’s bed, Ryen wrapped around him. His body was sore, the good kind though that left him feeling pleasantly content and horny just thinking about why he ached in all the right places.

He’d woken because he needed to piss. Problem was, he needed his chair in the next room. He’d either have to drag himself or wake Ryen.

Ryen was sleeping soundly and Kason couldn’t help but stare at the sight of him. In the soft moonlight he looked so content and beautiful. Things had gone so well tonight. And Ryen had asked him to stay. He hadn’t just been in a hurry to get rid of him. That was good. He wanted to see where things went and only hoped Ryen did too. After their talks and lovemaking he was certain this wasn’t a one-night stand. Ryen had known he didn’t want that and pretty much said the same.

“Hot Wheels, I thought I wore you out,” Ryen said, voice laced with sleep. “Why are you thinking so loud?”

Swatting Ryen’s chest, Kason murmured, “I need to use the bathroom, but uh…”

“Oh damn, baby. I’m an idiot.” Ryen sat up quickly and started to get out of bed. “I should’ve thought about bringing your chair in here.”

“Hey”—Kason grabbed his arm—“it’s fine, babe. It was the last thing on my mind earlier.”

Ryen broke into a grin. He leaned in for a kiss before he left and brought Kason’s chair back in. Kason got up, relieved himself, then went back to the bed, where Ryen was lying and waiting for him.

Kason parked his chair. “Still want me to stay?”

“Yup, I thought that was obvious.” Ryen gestured for him and Kason slid out of his chair. Happiness bubbled up when Ryen tugged him close and wrapped himself around Kason.

“Just checking,” he teased, kissing Ryen softly.

Ryen tightened his hold on him and Kason let out a breath he hadn’t realized he’d been holding. “I have a new pancake recipe and I need a guinea pig to test it.”

Laughing, Kason couldn’t help but love Ryen’s sense of humor. “So, you’re keeping me to test out your recipes?” He pretended to frown.

“Ah, no. That’s just a bonus.” Ryen’s fingers drummed on his hip. “I’m keeping you for the fantastic sex and to see this.” With one hand he tilted Kason’s head up while his other tickled his ribcage, and Kason laughed again. “Yeah, that smile there. Damn, baby. You’ve no idea what it does to me.”

“Oh.” Kason gazed at him from under his eyelashes. He smiled wider and pressed into Ryen. He couldn’t get enough of him. “Will it get me laid again?”

“You can count on it, like I said earlier.” Ryen pulled him up for a kiss and Kason stopped thinking, losing himself in the moment and how right it felt.

Chapter Three

The next morning, Kason was watching Ryen flip pancakes when his cell started vibrating on the counter. It was the fifth missed call from Lexie. He knew she wouldn’t stop calling until he answered.

He rubbed Brutus’ head when the dog laid it in his lap. “Morning, sis.”

“Don’t you morning me, Kason James Tyler,” Lexie said in her
mom
voice. “You know I get crazy now when you don’t answer.”

Kason felt guilty when he heard the panic in Lexie’s voice. “I’m sorry. I told you I had plans.” He gave Ryen a reassuring look and Ryen flipped another pancake, the muscles in his forearm bunching. Kason swallowed hard. Ryen had a tattoo there of an eagle on a branch that was made up with the names of his family. He had two other tattoos that Kason had spent some time… Damn, he was getting distracted and his sister was already mad. “I turned my phone off ’cause I was kinda busy.”

Ryen laughed. “Kinda? Is that all I get?”

“Okay, I was totally tied up, Lex.”

“Much better.” Ryen resumed cooking.

“O-Em-Gee, you’re still there?” Lexie giggled. “Can I say hi?”

“Right, so you can embarrass me? I don’t think so.”

“I’m insulted now. Just you wait until I see you again.”

Rolling his eyes, Kason was thinking of a comeback when Ryen leaned on his arms over the counter. “Hi, Lexie.” He kissed Kason. “Breakfast is done, Hot Wheels.”

All Kason could hear now was laughter from Lexie’s end. “Hot Wheels? I’m so calling you that from now on!”

He playfully punched Ryen’s arm and gave up, putting the phone on speaker. He only hoped Lexie wouldn’t embarrass him too badly. “I have no idea why I put up with this.”

“Because you love me,” Lexie said, catching her breath. “Hey, Ryen, three quick things and then I’ll let you get back to your pancakes, and if that’s an innuendo, I don’t wanna know.”

Dropping his head in his hands, Kason tried to think of a way to make his sister pay for this. “I’m going to tell Jase what really happened to his golf cubs.”

“I have no idea what you’re talking about,” Lexie lied through her teeth. “Ryen, you there?”

“Yup.” Ryen seemed completely amused, which was good at least. “Three things, huh?”

“One, Kason is my little bro and I’m a mean mama bear, you got that? Two, I’ve seen every episode of
Criminal Minds
and
CSI.
I can make you disappear if you hurt him, which means you won’t or
else
. And three, next time I see you, remind me to hug you.”

Ryen seemed as thrown by the third one as Kason did. “Why?”

“My babies, Ems and Luke, were the only ones who could get him smiling and that was rare. It was nice to see him doing that again yesterday.”

“Oh.” Ryen came up behind Kason and wrapped him in an embrace, kissing his neck. “Well, it just so happens that his smile makes me crazy so you’ll be seeing it a lot more.”

“Good.” Lexie sounded pleased. “Luke, what have I told you about running down the stairs? You’ll break something. Ugh, I gotta go. Bye, guys, love you, Kas.”

“Love you, too.” Kason hung the phone up then leaned back into Ryen’s arms. “Sorry, my sister is, uh…unique? Wouldn’t trade her for anything though.”

“A firecracker. I like her.” Ryen chuckled. “I never want to get on her bad side.”

“Nope, been there, and it isn’t pretty.”

Pulling the plate over to them, Ryen then speared a piece of pancake on a fork and fed it to him. “What do you think?”

He thought he might have to start going to the gym and lifting weights if he was going to keep eating so well and wanting seconds. “Mm, real good. Boysenberry is my favorite syrup.”
