Nick stood in the shower letting the water run over his face and body. He pushed his hands through his hair and rinsed away shampoo. A couple days had turned into four staying with the demons. Aiden had assured him he’d handle the school, but learning more about himself and them had been too much to pass up. At first he’d thought Logan was using his influence or Aiden his to keep him there, but Logan had proven a few times that any power he exercised over Nick would wear off. He liked that. No matter what they tried to make him do, it wouldn’t last. If they were holding him captive, then he would have come to his senses long before now and left.

So what did keep him here? He had a little better control of his gifts even to call on them at will sometimes. And Aiden had admitted he could learn on his own. He knew they had ulterior motives. They were bald with confessing how much they wanted him. Nick had made Aiden tell him every detail about his mother, her name, her life, and where they’d found her. Less information was available about his father, but he had a feeling that was from commands they weren’t going to disobey than in not knowing.

Nick rolled a bar of soap between his hands and began washing his abs. He figured everything boiled down to a couple of facts. Logan’s power wasn’t influencing him, and Aiden wasn’t a lust demon. Any real influence they might have on him because of what he was didn’t work, so what he was feeling—a desire for them—was all him. That thought should terrify him, and when he first experienced it, it did. But now it was freeing in a way.

He’d never thought much about the guys at school and definitely not his roommate. When it came to girls, he wasn’t a virgin. But with Logan and Aiden it was as if he had an all expenses pass to explore as much as he wanted. And he could leave whenever he liked. He could have fun with them a few days seeing how the other side lived and then go back to his plan for his life.

He grinned. Yeah, things can go exactly the way I want them. I’ll pick up a few more tricks, use them, and be gone. Just like that.





The steam in the shower began to thicken, and the temperature rose. He waved his hand to clear the air, but that did nothing. He’d marveled when he stepped in there the first time that it was gigantic, bigger than any normal person needed, but not so expansive he shouldn’t be able to see the opposite wall.

A dark figure appeared in the white smoke and another. His heart raced and eyes widened. But then Aiden, naked, stepped into view followed by Logan.

“So you’ve decided,” Aidan said.

Nick gasped. “How did you know?”

“I’ve never left your thoughts.”

“You—”

“Relax,” he soothed. “I didn’t influence them, only monitored them. Come here to me.”

Nick frowned, compressing his lips. The soap slipped from his fingers and landed with a thunk on the shower floor. He hesitated, fear rushing over him. Have sex with two men? Was he crazy? What if Karen found out or someone from school? He shook his head to clear it. He’d decided to try it a moment ago, but the reality of them standing there in the shower, erect and ready, sent shivers down his back. He’d asserted that he was an adult and could make decisions for himself, but this was…This was different.

“You heard Aiden,” Logan growled, but Aiden raised his hand to silence him.

Nick licked his lips. He tried for looking casual about laying a hand on the rail just beneath the soap dish, but the truth was he needed it for support. Aiden came closer to him, and Logan swore. Nick guessed they were both used to others obeying Aiden. The blond smiled, now standing over him, but irritation lit his dark eyes.

“Just this once,” he uttered. “Because you’re scared. But you will make it up to me.”

Beads of water rolled over Aiden’s bronze chest and curved along the ripples of his abs. Nick tried not to stare, but he couldn’t help looking. Aiden’s body was perfection. His desire to touch him was fast overcoming his nerves. Yet, he still didn’t move.

“Logan,” Aiden said, and his partner sprang into action. He moved up behind Nick and turned him roughly to face the wall. Now Nick stood with both palms flat on the tile. Logan rubbed up against him from behind, letting him feel his hard cock as it glided over his ass. Nick closed his eyes, waiting for a wave of disgust, but none came. Only desire had him push his ass out a little, but he felt his cheeks flame at the same time. Logan gave a low, evil chuckle in his ear. “Like that, do you? Want more?”

Nick clenched his jaw. He wasn’t ready to admit anything. Logan leaned around him and pushed a finger inside Nick’s mouth. He tried turning his head, but Logan took a firm hold.

“Suck it,” he demanded.

Nick shivered. Damn the words gave him all kinds of thoughts. He did as he was told, wetting Logan’s digit as he slid it in and out of Nick’s mouth in a sensual tease. Aiden moved closer, and now Nick felt his cock against his side. Aiden stroked Nick’s ass while he watched what Logan was doing.

Two of them, one on each side, the sensory overload had Nick’s knees buckling. But he stood strong. He would not allow himself to look like an inexperienced kid in front of them. But then he guessed they knew he was a virgin when it came to fucking men.

Nick was almost sorry when Logan pulled his finger out of his mouth. Logan acknowledged his disappointment with a grin. “Now comes the making it up to Aiden,” he said.

Nick parted his lips to ask what he meant, but gasped and went up to his toes at where Logan’s finger went next.
