marks, as if to soothe them. I didn’t want him touching someone else but logically I understood why it was necessary. I also understood the slight tremble in Brian’s body when Noah touched him like that. I’d felt the same thing so many times in the past few days.
Noah leaned closer and licked a small area on the Brian’s neck. Then with expert precision, he sank his teeth into a fresh spot. I could almost feel the instant reaction. Brian dipped his head back and groaned, his hand coming up automatically to cover Noah’s where it rested on his collarbone. He panted and arched his lower back, just like the woman I’d seen a few minutes before. Noah wasn’t exactly unaffected either: his eyes were sexy and hooded and I could see his elegant fingers clutching into the fabric of Brian’s shirt.
I gulped.
Oh, I was still jealous as hell, but I also knew I was seeing what had to be the hottest thing ever. Noah was turned on and ready for sex, the muscles in his throat swallowing, his arousal growing by the second. I wanted so badly to be the guy beneath him.
I reached out, unthinking, and held onto his free hand. Noah weaved his fingers with mine and pulled me closer, close enough that I could nearly feel the currents of lust that were passing between the other two. Close enough that I could hear Brian’s heavy breathing and low moans. Even though some part of me wanted to kill him I still didn’t want to stop watching. It was hypnotic.
After a minute or so, Noah finally drew away from Brian and licked the wound so it would stop bleeding. Then he slowly wiped any small drops from his lips with his fingers.
A split second later he hauled me up against him and kissed me harder than he’d ever kissed me before. I could taste desire, love, and the slightly exotic flavor of blood, which weirdly enough didn’t bother me at all. I wanted to feast on him. I knew he felt the same. The kiss lasted for a long heart-pounding minute. When we finally pulled away from each other, Brian was staring lustfully at us.
“It’s too bad you don’t want to share, Noah. The three of us could have a lot of fun together.”
Noah tore his gaze away from me before he smiled politely and shook his head. “Not going to happen, Brian, but thank you. You were delicious as always.”
Brian nodded and began to walk away. After a few steps he turned. “Night, Noah. Zack. The offer still stands. You know where to find me.”
Noah shook his head laughing under his breath and pulled me close again.
“C’mon. Let’s go home.”

The ride back to Noah’s was without a doubt the longest car ride of my life. The hours I’d spent in the backseat with Peter, Paul and Mary blasting had nothing on the torture I was feeling strapped into the passenger seat and wishing I was naked and in Noah’s lap. He held my hand the whole time and tried to make small talk but we could both feel it. The air in the car was electric.
I couldn’t stand it much longer. I was almost vibrating with the pure, raging...lust that was flowing through me. If we didn’t get there soon, I was going to have to make him pull the car over and take me on the side of the road. I lifted my hand from his lap and fiddled with the radio, flipping through stations and trying to distract myself from the ever-growing need to reach over and rip his shirt off. He chuckled and took my hand from the dials bringing it to his lips.
“Almost home, baby.” He nicked my finger gently with one of his teeth and sucked, just for a second. I nearly came on the spot.
“Oh my god.” He slowly braked and began to tremble. He released my finger from his mouth but didn’t let go of my hand. “Remind me never to do that again when I’m driving,” he said with a shaky laugh.
“No kidding.”
We sat there and breathed for a minute until Noah felt like he could pull back onto the road. After a few more frustrating minutes, I thought of a real question.
