blades and the lift of the bottle rim to his lips. The bottle paused midway and Mack threw
back his head on a bone-vibrating laugh.
 There he is, Will yelled, knocking his shoulder against Mack s.
 Hey, Mack yelled over the din of sports commentary. He lifted his bottle in the air.
His coat swung open, flashing the gold-on-leather detective s badge of the Maple Grove
police department.  We were wondering where you were. What took so long?
Geo s lips pulled into an obligatory smile. It was nearly impossible to look Mack in the
eye after the graphic sex dreams he d been having about him for the last week. One had
brought him to full wakefulness, belting out Mack s name as his body convulsed in orgasm.
Crap of it was, he couldn t exactly avoid him. Geo fingered his own badge, looped
through his belt. Finding another man attractive made Geo gay, he supposed. Finding his
fellow detective attractive, made it complicated. Gay partners. Sounded like a redundancy,
but Geo didn t think Mack or the other detectives would find it as amusing. Hell, he didn t
find it amusing, just incredibly erotic.
Pulling himself together, Geo pasted a smile on his face and ploughed through the bar s
smoky dimness as though he walked against a stiff wind.
 Covey case, he said when he reached Mack and Will.

Mack shot him an asking look.  What could have happened in the twenty minutes since
I left the office?
He did lift the bottle to his lips this time, and Geo stole a glance at the hard amber glass
pressing his partner s mouldable lips. The rolled rim of the bottle resembled the flared head
of a thick cock. Unavoidably, he imagined the firm, full lips pressed to the tip of his dick,
sipping the mushroom head as he came in ball-wrenching spurts.
His gut clenched on the image. His brain desperately wanted to return everything to
normal. The way it was before he grew sexually aware of his partner.
Geo slid his hands into his pockets to cover his physical reaction but couldn t tear his
eyes off Mack s throat. It worked over each swallow, his Adam s apple bobbing beneath silky
tanned skin. Geo broke into a cold sweat.
 Chief wants a  round the clock stakeout with Douglas and Nix. Hours of sitting,
alone, with Mack in a dark car. Not touching but wanting to and not really wishing to
explore why touching Mack was fast becoming an obsession.
Fucking torture.
Mack lowered his bottle and licked the moisture on his upper lip with the tip of his
tongue. Black hair fell over his forehead, partially obscuring one light green eye. Geo had
never thought of his partner as sexy, but something in the dreams had shifted his
perspective. Mack made his balls tight, and one crooked grin, one rumbling laugh, coiled
anticipation in his groin so tightly Geo thought he d bust.
Confused the hell out of him.
Why after three years did he get a hard-on for his partner? And what the hell was he
supposed to do with that info now? Guys like Geo and Mack, they didn t do other guys. They
made light cracks about men who did, secure in the knowledge that they weren t among
them. Not that Geo cared about sexuality one way or the other. You loved whom you loved.
But Mack was different. A man who fucked women and slapped other guys on the back.
 Dude, I have to go on a drive-along with you one of these days. Will wrapped his lips
around his bottle, too, but it didn t leave Geo with the same effect.  Ever get drunk during
one of those things?
 Hell, no. I drink as little as possible so I don t have to whiz, Mack said.  Fucking
miserable to sit on your ass for hours with a full bladder.

 Ever bring a lady on a stakeout? Will asked, nudging Mack with his elbow.
 I have to listen to Geo whine as it is. Why would I bring along someone who ll just
whine in a higher pitch?
 It s called singing, and my sister thinks I have a great voice, Geo said.
 Your sister thinks I have a great voice too when I m humming her clit, Mack teased.
 My sister wouldn t come near your hairy ass, Geo argued.
 Oh yeah, that was your mom. Mack laughed, lifting his bottle to drain the dregs and
calling the bartender over for another two. He motioned that Geo should get one of them.
Geo straddled a stool on the other side of Will. No sense getting closer to Mack than he
had to. How would he explain a hard-on for his partner? Mack could break his face a
hundred different ways for looking at him sideways?
Hell, Geo didn t understand it himself.  Just fucking dreams, he muttered under his
breath.
 What dreams? Will probed.
 Nuthin .
 That guy, Mack said pointing at Geo.  That guy has some freaky-ass dreams. Tell
Will about the one with the playground equipment grabbing at your fly.
 I ll pass. Geo fisted the beer bottle the minute it hit the counter. Tossing back, he
downed it while Will jeered and Mack ordered him a second one. As he drained it, he flicked
his tongue over the bottom rim, thinking about cock heads. Mack s in particular. Geo s balls
throbbed.
 When s the stakeout? Will asked.
 Sunday.
 Fuck that, Mack growled.
A cell phone buzzed. All three of them reached for their belts.
Will lifted his.  It s mine. Shit, it s Cheryl. He lifted the phone and plastered a phony
smile on his face.  Hey baby, what s up?
Geo tuned him out, pushing back a second empty beer bottle and reaching for a third.
 I gotta go. Cheryl s PMS-ing or some shit, Will said. He shrugged and dropped a
couple of bills on the counter.  See ya, Monday. Unless, of course, you re still staked.
 Yeah, yeah. Geo waved him off.

Mack scooted over a stool.  Thirsty, huh?
Geo didn t answer. With his partner even closer now, Geo thought several more beers
might be in order. Hands on the bottle meant no hands on Mack. Yeah, good idea.
Mack slapped him on the back.  Drink up then. I ll getcha home. Mack s slap became a
shoulder squeeze before he dropped his arm and leaned on the bar.  So what s eatin you?
Perfect choice of words. If only Mack knew.
 Got a lot on my mind.
 Women? Mack asked.
 Nope.
 Maddie will be disappointed, Mack teased.
It wasn t Mack s little sister he worried about disappointing with his redirected lust.
They drank in silence for several minutes. Mack switched to cola. Geo tried to figure out
what he felt and why his dick insisted on pointing skyward whenever Mack was around.
It hadn t been unruly before last week. At least, he didn t remember it being so. There
were moments on the job where he d been at half-mast, but that had been adrenaline. The
rush of the chase, right?
 I need to get you home, buddy. You drink another, and you ll pass out like you did
last time you got deep and ponderous. Mack stood.
Geo stood too although the room tilted. He felt the solid comfort of Mack s arm around
his back. Geo leaned in. Mack smelled good. Damn him. Fuckin A. Geo stumbled, his feet [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
