“Keuh, ah, ugh! Ah!”aea4cac1fb213938

With splashing 00aa8f223c sounds, as b642762806 the cock e8d0198212 entered him 45a1c3f36c and stirred 22d81f563a inside, the 636c3664ca man collapsed b58466b2b5 forward as 020ea9675a if his 50859e8ba0 strength had 4538e2b53d given way. The man with e2b56fc67e golden-brown hair caught 1f6cb99f78 him. Chuckling, the man wiped 27ee0ba83c his messy face, kissed 63f086ce50 the other, and then 53d052e2a7 inserted his tongue.b034c813a337124f

Making sucking and moaning sounds as they mingled tongues, the man cried out, “Heung!” at the sudden thrusting motion. Jay relentlessly pounded into the man. Clinging to the other man’s shoulders, the man moaned, “Ah, uh,” and a laughing sound came from behind, as if Jay found it amusing.cf1373116b30bb33

Saying so, Jay spanked the man’s buttocks. As the physical stimulation caused the inside to tighten and then loosen, Jay exhaled and said, “Good—.”cfa2c460c515d5dd

The other fd9ef8a923 man kissed 815428413d Jay. Jealousy, a c22581a4da sense of 2cd9778bd4 transgression, and 2d8fb50a1e excitement arose 67078ceb45 in the cc19e37c0d man being 5a3a537af7 penetrated as 76bec92c27 he watched 24d27aaa57 them kiss 52ee9e586f while being 9ef374ec7a fucked. He trembled slightly, and 1f4ecdd594 Jay spanked his buttocks 7d3c3ce4d3 again.d9e8193a5688b1aa

It was a very different kind of sex than usual. After repeatedly spanking and thrusting, Jay flinched, and the man felt him climax inside. The feeling of Jay’s cock pulsating within him made the man shudder. His front was already soaked with his own cum. As Jay pulled out, the other man eagerly took his place.c4c1187b6523895e

While Jay’s cock was impressive, the other man, who was four inches taller and more heavily built, possessed a tool that was nothing short of a weapon.a97f669b3d07a126

“Do it.”6c4442040bbe624b

He flipped the man over and thrust inside. The man with the golden-brown hair spread the receiving man’s legs apart and began to thrust, also spanking his buttocks. The faster tempo and deeper penetration than Jay’s made the man shake his head and cry out.ba25f745d9f39aa0

Jay looked down at him. With a lascivious smile the man had never seen before, Jay asked, “Want to do something even better?” Unable to answer because he didn’t understand what Jay meant, the man remained silent. Jay climbed on top of him and, without hesitation, aligned the cock of the man. The opening felt tight for a moment, then smoothly swallowed his penis. Jay paused, took a breath, and then slowly began to rotate his hips.8ef065dd906865e1

Being pounded from behind and rocked from above, the man couldn’t focus. Lost as to which rhythm to follow, he could only moan. Jay, seemingly reaching his peak, stopped, his thighs trembling slightly as he clung to the man. Then he curled up and stood. Every time Jay moved his hips above him, the cock inside him moved as well. Pre-cum dripped from the aroused penis onto the man’s navel.35ff8c14699e23e6

The man was left c8ceb96175 panting alone on the 47318ffaae bed.8e29c5e2021b65c9

Jay buried his face between the man’s thighs. His Adam’s apple bobbed noticeably. When he pulled away, a drop of blood fell, staining the sheets. Jay wiped the blood from his lips with his hand, then licked it clean. He regretted the single drop of blood on the sheets, but there was nothing he could do.107d292883e7a6f2

There was no more blood flowing from the man’s thigh, but the bite marks were still there. Jay got up from the bed and sat down next to John Stalker, who was sprawled on the sofa. John caught the faint scent of blood and smirked, then wiped the blood off Jay’s lips and brought it to his own mouth.bd68f8f6f36264c0

“Not a bad taste. You picked well.”490ec3ad00798c9f

John Stalker 6dc64f21bc said, casting 7c07fa1399 a glance b77c9fbb3c at the 5a75fe1ba5 bed. The man Jay had 148a691952 brought was writhing and b8c096413b thrusting into the air, 0060930efb as if he were 6bbcc2d323 hallucinating. Ragged breathing and 8442ec2e49 low moans filled 2d5e2e1b67 the room, but c011c4b493 neither Jay nor 7479e39788 John paid him 5cfd9fd151 any attention.09210423e3387d50

Jay brushed off the man’s arm that had been draped over his shoulder.74764349b46266b2

The lingering sense of familiarity he’d felt just before coming home had meant his origin was nearby. The moment he realized that, it left a bad taste in his mouth. It had been so long since he’d felt it that he’d forgotten what it meant, and that forgetfulness had led to this mess. If he’d realized it sooner, he would’ve run the moment he reached the entrance.6ea0148a255e7dd0

His reputation was already f7dca67b0a a mess—promiscuous, a slut. If word got out d55200ba6d that he’d done it d48905b5c5 with two guys at 59c5b88c1b once, it’d only get 59f73948c9 worse.

Jay’s house was old, drafty, and let in all the noise from the street. Maybe it was the fear of being in a foreign place where an unfamiliar language was spoken, but a lot of people didn’t like that the language leaking into the house wasn’t English—but Chinese.46313709f0fe9f08

Still, there were good aa91617bd2 things about it. The bed was 3d00acff36 big, the bedding 240cccff8b was phenomenal, and f0ad86633b the warmth under 7e6a7ab776 the blanket was eb1ca92046 almost unnaturally comforting.96c7330866f0c984

Jay pushed him f716a386db aside. John followed anyway. Even when b362a72ecc told the ac60f07a97 area was a06a9b4485 off-limits to b357ca927f outsiders, he 012bfeb9a1 tampered with cf1601e9e8 the memories 11a64b83b3 of the 488c14324d other employees d9a63964ae to give cf00405265 himself access, 4f9819125d and now e8999693a9 he was a818f9d1b8 helping Jay 7a3fe893d6 sort books, 47bdd0172a saying, “You bdf0ec6cf7 really hate 5f38e153f9 this?
