10. Michael
The next two weeks flew by.
Michael might have been as busy as ever with his vast array of business interests and high profile investment deals, but what made things extra special was the fact that him and Korben were working together both during the day and at home too.
Things between Michael and Korben were heating up, there was no denying that.
Amongst the plentiful punishments and hot and heavy action that came close to going all the way on several occasions, Michael was loving the fact that he had a burgeoning relationship that fitted in so well alongside his business life.
Korben was happy too, and Michael loved nothing more than helping his darling boy to develop Korben’s Kandies – even if that did mean he needed to administer some tough love when Korben became too headstrong or decided to sass him one time too many.
However, with Korben enjoying a playdate with his fellow Little friends that night, Michael thought he might have been at something of a loose end. But Michael hadn’t banked on the fact that both Max and their buddy Harrison would insist that he come out for a whisky or three at Ice Bar…
‘Here’s to our baby boys,’ Max said, raising his glass to toast.
‘The Little Life,’ Harrison said, a broad smile on his face. ‘And it’s great to be hanging out with you guys again. It’s been a minute.’
‘It sure has,’ Michael replied. ‘How’s that new book coming along, Harrison?’
‘Slowly,’ Harrison said, rolling his eyes. ‘Honestly, I know it’s part of the process, but this sonofabitch might just be my last novel if I can’t get over the line in the next few months. But having Benji in my life has saved me from tossing the manuscript out on more than one occasion.’
Michael nodded.
Harrison and Benji were a great Daddy and Little pairing. Michael had seen them fall in love and their relationship go from strength to strength. It had been beautiful to witness, even if at the time Michael could only imagine how good it must have felt for them. But now with Korben in his life, Michael truly appreciated just how good it was to have a supportive, loving, and sweet darling boy.
Michael loved coming to Ice Bar. Being a strictly Daddies-only bar, Michael loved knowing that the vibe would be relaxed, sophisticated, and fully equipped with some of the best mood lighting in the whole city. With its plush armchairs, mahogany floors, and soothing jazz soundtrack playing, Ice Bar was a great place to come and meet with friends.
‘So you and Korben… it’s getting serious?’ Harrison enquired, sipping on his whisky.
‘Well…’ Michael said, momentarily unsure how much of his hand to reveal.
‘Come on, you’re both totally in love!’ Max bellowed, his raised voice drawing the disapproving attention of two older Daddies over by the window.
‘Yeah, I can’t deny it,’ Michael said, fully appreciating that there was no point attempting to be coy in front of two of his best Daddy friends. ‘Hey, look at us. Three Daddies with three Littles. Who would have guessed it?’
‘True,’ Harrison replied. ‘We’ve all come a long way since our younger days, that’s for sure. But as much as I loved our time on campus as young bucks, I wouldn’t ever want to go back to my life before Benji. Not now. Not now I know just how amazing life can be.’
‘Hell yeah, brother,’ Max said, finishing his whisky. ‘I’ll be real, I don’t know where I’d be without Louie in my life. He might be the sassiest boy I’ve met, and sometimes it can even spill into being a brat. Which I kind of think he does on purpose sometimes, but that’s another story. But I wouldn’t change Louie. Not one bit of him. Daddies need their boy. And I’m so glad you found yours, Michael.’
‘I was beginning to think it might not happen,’ Michael said. ‘You know, with the investments taking up so much of my life. It was like I was becoming a workaholic. I mean, don’t get me wrong – I still put the hours in. But now that I know I’ve got someone to care for outside of work, it gives me that little nudge I need to know when to call it a day.’
Michael watched as Max and Harrison exchanged a look between themselves.
‘Damn, you were right Max,’ Harrison said, a smile on his face. ‘Our brother truly does think Korben is his Forever boy.’
‘Hey I never said Forever,’ Michael said, his protestations making both Max and Harrison fall back in their armchairs and laugh.
Together, the three of them had been through plenty of ups and downs.
But Michael loved the fact that all three of them now were in good places in their lives. There would always be challenges, and Michael was enough of a realist to know that even with Korben in his life he would still have all the pressures of work still to contend with.
But Michael was grateful to have Korben to nurture and care for.
As he reclined in his chair and accepted a freshly poured whisky from the attentive server, Michael began to think about how soon him and Korben would take the final step together…
I’m ready, and Korben’s ready.
But it has to be the right moment.
I want Korben to remember our first time together for the rest of his days…
Michael was abruptly brought out of his daydreaming by the sound of Max and Harrison laughing.
‘Michael, you’ve gone soft,’ Harrison bellowed. ‘I’d know that look on your face anywhere. You were dreaming about your boy. Hell, I don’t blame you. I catch myself doing it all the time.’
‘Trust me, I have not gone soft in my business life,’ Michael said, barking back. ‘You know that asshole Phillip Neal?’
‘The guy you used to work with?’ Harrison asked, leaning forward in his armchair.
‘Yeah,’ Michael continued. ‘He’s been making some kind of move against me. I don’t know what it is yet, but when I find out I’m going to make him pay. Michael Dornan might have his own baby boy, but no one will ever think I’m soft when it comes to matters relating to money.’
‘Hey, I believe you,’ Harrison said, chuckling. ‘But brother… your cell phone’s flashing up a message from Korben. You might want to answer it.’
Michael rolled his eyes at being gently teased by his old friend.
With both Harrison and Max chuckling away together, Michael picked up the cell phone and saw that it was indeed Korben who had messaged him.
The tough guy move would have been to put the phone away without even opening the message. But Michael knew that despite their banter, neither Max nor Harrison expected him to not respond to his darling boy…
I’m glad you’re having a great time, darling boy. I’m having a good evening with the Daddies too. Remember – not too much ice cream! You know how your tummy doesn’t like it when you have too much. Can’t wait to see you tomorrow, DADDY XoXoXo.
Michael smiled as he sent the message and then reclined in his chair. It was time to show both Harrison and Max that he hadn’t totally lost his edge.
With that, Michael motioned over to the server for a fresh round of double whiskeys on the rocks. It was time to sink some more booze and let the good times roll.
‘We don’t get much time to hang out like we used to,’ Michael declared. ‘So how about we make this a night to remember?’
‘Hell yeah!’ Max replied, his charming smile lighting up the subtly lit room.
‘I’m down all the way,’ Harrison added. ‘Hell, a good night’s drinking with my two favorite men might even give me the inspiration I need to get over the speedbump in my novel.’
With that, the three Daddies began to drink – and drink hard.
Michael was loosening up and letting go of all his stresses and worries. And he owed it all to Korben’s influence in his life.
Tonight might have been all about the Daddies, but Michael was determined that tomorrow he would have something very special to give to Korben…
The next morning, Michael still managed to haul himself out of bed for an early morning run. He might have been in his forties, but Michael was determined to keep his fitness up even if that did include going for runs in the park the morning after a heavy night with his Daddy friends.
‘God damn,’ Michael said, stepping into the shower and feeling the full force of the hot water blasting down over his sweaty, strong body. ‘I needed that run. And I need this shower even more…’
‘Is there something else you need?’ Korben teased, making himself known as he stood at the bathroom door. ‘I hope it’s okay I let myself in with the spare key…’
Suddenly, Michael realized that there very much was something else that he needed – and he was standing at the entrance to his bathroom.
Korben was wearing a bright white t-shirt that was tucked into the cutest pair of jazzy denim shorts. With Korben’s petit but athletic figure being more than hinted at, Michael was already undressing the boy in his mind – and Korben could tell exactly what he was thinking too…
‘Daddy, you seem to be… growing?’ Korben giggled, putting his hands over his mouth as he watched Michael’s cock spring to life. ‘Was it something I did?’
Michael growled.
The sight of Korben’s enchanting green eyes was one thing, and his plump pink lips was another. But Michael also couldn’t help but notice that Korben’s t-shirt and shorts were getting more and more wet from the shower water bouncing off his body and onto the boy.
‘I think it’s time you took that t-shirt off,’ Michael said. ‘Before it gets totally soaked. The shorts too.’
‘But I’m too shy,’ Korben said, teasingly removing his t-shirt to reveal his slim but strong torso. ‘And my shorts… and my briefs too? If I don’t take them all off, they’ll get wet and I won’t have anything to wear all day. That’s if you even let me put any clothes on all day, Daddy…’
Michael squirted some shower gel into his hands and began to massage it over his wet, hard cock. The sight of Korben stripping down was truly a sight to behold.
‘You’ve got twenty seconds to get butt naked before I pull you in here,’ Michael growled, his strong body tensing up in excitement as his submissive boy did exactly as his Daddy commanded.
‘Like this?’ Korben giggled, dropping his denim shorts to the floor and stepping out of them one leg at a time. ‘But Daddy…’
‘Yes?’ Michael enquired, a note of frustration in his voice, such was his desire to get Korben’s naked body next to his underneath the powerful jet stream of hot water.
‘Is there any point in taking my briefs off if they’re already wet?’ Korben giggled, putting his fingers inside his briefs and gasping provocatively as he squeezed his growing manhood..
‘In here! Now!’ Michael roared, his eyes wild with desire and his heart thumping inside his chest.
With that, Korben jumped into the shower with Michael and gasped as his Daddy tore his wet briefs right off his peachy butt.
Michael gripped onto Korben’s cheeks and lifted him up.
‘Tell me what you want, boy,’ Michael said.
‘I want you to… make me yours,’ Korben replied, breathing hard. ‘It’s time.’
Michael growled. Korben had given him the green light – and from this point onward there would be no stopping Michael giving his boy everything he wanted, and more…
