Excerpt:

Keegan took the stage that night with a rare gusto. He loved performing and it showed, but the possibility of being with Scott put an extra oomph in his movements. The crowd loved it. Keegan smiled and flirted, lapping up the whistles and applause like nectar.

Just as he wormed his fingers into the holes he’d cut in the lace dress and ripped it open, Keegan spotted Scott in the audience. Pleasantly surprised to see him back so soon, Keegan grinned and gave him a tiny nod. Scott smiled back.

Keegan couldn’t see Scott’s eyes past the glare of the spotlight, but he could feel the heat of the man’s gaze. He let himself respond to it, running both hands suggestively up the insides of his thighs and over his groin. The black satin of his G-string did nothing to hide his excitement. Falling to his knees, he tugged at a nipple ring with one hand and cupped his balls in the other, hips rolling in a slow, sensuous motion, his head lolling back as the appreciative whoops of the audience washed over him. He loved it, loved feeling this beautiful and sexy and wanted.

The rest of his show was a blur. He let his desire take him over, moving his body in ways that whipped the crowd into a frenzy. He could smell the lust rolling off the panting men like an exotic perfume. By the time the music stopped and he took his bows to thunderous applause, his cock was fully erect and leaking a damp spot on the satin. He left the stage with a wave, intent on finding Scott as soon as possible.

He didn’t have to wait long. Scott came barreling down the hallway before he’d gotten halfway to the dressing room. Those dark eyes burned with a need Keegan understood perfectly. He felt a wide, eager smile spread across his face and didn’t even want to stop it.

“Hi Scott,” he said. “Wow, I didn’t expect you back so—mmph…”

His words were abruptly cut off by Scott’s mouth on his. The kiss was hard and aggressive and exactly what Keegan wanted right then. He melted into it, running his hands over Scott’s muscular shoulders.

“Where?” Scott growled between kisses. “I need you right fucking now.”

“Uh…” Keegan tried to think, but Scott’s hands on his skin threatened to drown him in an ocean of pure sensation. “Dressing room,” he gasped.

Lifting Keegan right off his feet, Scott moved toward the dressing room, which was thankfully nearby. Keegan wrapped both legs around Scott’s waist, rubbing himself shamelessly against Scott’s hard, flat belly. Scott flung the door open, shuffled inside and kicked it closed again, and they were alone at last. Alone and hard and wanting and finally free to act on it.

“Did you?” Keegan mumbled without taking his mouth from Scott’s. “Can we?”

“Yes, and yes.” Scott bit Keegan’s bottom lip, tugging the silver ring between his teeth. His thumbs plucked at Keegan’s G-string. “Off. Now.”

Keegan laughed breathlessly. “Let me down.”

Scott pulled back enough to look him in the eye. “Hang on.”

Keegan didn’t have time to wonder what Scott meant. Scott’s hands left his hips altogether, and he clamped his legs harder around Scott’s waist to keep from falling. He was about to ask Scott what he was doing, when Scott’s fingers curled under the thin elastic strips at the edges of Keegan’s thong and gave a sharp pull. The elastic tore loose. The satin triangle stayed, held between their pressed-together bodies.

Scott reached back and tugged the bit of fabric gently away, leaving Keegan clinging to him stark naked. One big hand wriggled between them while the other arm clutched Keegan’s hips, holding him up. Keeping an arm around Scott’s neck, Keegan slipped his free hand down to help undo Scott’s pants. After a moment’s fumbling, they got the button and zipper open. Keegan grasped Scott’s thick shaft, feeling like he’d won the lottery. Scott moaned and thrust against him.

Keegan wished they could make it to the sofa in the corner, or at least the chair. But he didn’t think he could stand to let go, and was pretty sure Scott wouldn’t want to either. So they stayed there, Scott braced against the wall with Keegan clinging to him, humping each other like a couple of teenagers. Keegan would’ve laughed if he hadn’t been busy kissing Scott like his life depended on it.
