Chapter 5: Open

"Thirty-eight," Linus said into the marble.

"Keep going."

"Thirty-nine," Linus said.

"Good."

Leandros's hand lay flat between his shoulder blades, pressing him down against the cold kitchen island.

The suit jacket was on the floor, and the trousers were around Linus's ankles.

His shirt was open down the front and shoved off one shoulder.

Behind him, Leandros was on his knees on the tile, with his mouth on the back of Linus's thigh.

"Forty."

"Again," Leandros said. "From one."

"You said forty."

"I said count to forty. I didn't say how often."

Linus let out a laugh that turned into a groan, because a warm tongue had just traced the crease at the top of his thigh.

"One," he said.

"Louder."

"One."

The tongue moved higher.

It slid over the swell of his ass, slow and wet, and a hand parted him, and cool air touched skin that had never been touched.

Linus's fingers clawed at the edge of the island.

"Leandros."

"Count."

"Two," Linus said, and his voice broke in the middle.

A thumb pressed gently against his hole, a slow circle, and the tongue followed it.

The first lick went through him all at once.

He had no idea what to do with the feeling.

It was dirty and warm and impossibly intimate, and his hips jerked back to meet it before he knew they were moving.

"Three. Oh. Four."

"There you are," Leandros murmured, against him.

"Don't talk."

"Then stop talking," Leandros said.

"I can't. I have to count."

"You can count with your mouth open, I'm told."

Linus laughed again, shakily, with his forehead on the marble.

Leandros licked him, steady and unhurried, circling and pressing, until Linus lost the number somewhere past eleven.

"Fuck. I lost count."

"Start over," Leandros said.

"You're enjoying this."

"Very much."

"Of course you are. You're a..." The tongue pushed in, a little, and Linus made a sound that wasn't a word.

The beads clicked, somewhere behind him.

He realized Leandros was holding them in one hand, winding and unwinding them around his fingers.

Linus heard it in the dark between breaths.

Click.

Click.

"You're holding yourself back," he said.

"Yes."

"Why?"

"Because if I let go," Leandros said, "I'll have you in ten seconds, and I'll hurt you."

"I don't care."

"I do."

He stood, in one motion, and turned Linus around.

He lifted him by the thighs onto the island, and the marble was cold under his bare skin.

Leandros pushed his legs apart and stood between them, still in his shirt, with his mouth wet and his chest heaving.

He looked wrecked.

"Come to bed," he said.

"Here is fine."

"Bed," Leandros said, "because I want you on your back where I can see you."

They didn't make it to the bed right away.

Leandros kissed him in the hall, against the wall, with Linus's legs around his waist.

They stopped at the bedroom door so Linus could get his hands into the man's hair, and again at the foot of the bed.
