Born to Please [Pleasure Vessels 1] (Siren Publishing Everlasting Classic ManLove) (4 page)

Finally they rounded the last bend on the way to his Virginia home. Alec watched Payne’s expression as they pulled up to his home. His expression had been guarded the entire trip, but Alec could tell he’d never seen the tall skyscrapers they’d passed and had probably never been in the Lamborghini transport unit that Alec had rented to drive them home. His house wasn’t too extravagant, just three stories. In comparison to his father’s multiwinged monstrosity, it was downright quaint. But it was cozy and well manicured. On either side of the house farther away from the road was a good ninety acres of untouched woodland that was really Alec’s pride and joy. He hunted and fished on his land a lot more when he wasn’t the spokesman for the Facility, but he was looking forward to getting back to it. After a few months of traveling, he was going to take a much-needed break.

“It’s beautiful,” Payne breathed as he took in the well-mannered brick home with tall Grecian columns. “I’ve never seen something so beautiful. It looks like a magazine.” The awe on his face was cute as hell.

“I’m happy you like it,” Alec said. He hadn’t been this pleased with someone complimenting his house since he bought the place. He had high hopes that his birthday present was going to work out nicely.

* * * *

He knew his training was failing him at the moment. The Facility had schooled him on how to express himself when confronted with the outside world. He had been instructed on vehicle models, home décor, cooking, modern technology, history, politics, and five different languages. He’d been prepared to take care of and provide any manner of sexual desire that his future Master could ever want. He’d been taught not to show his opinions until his Master expressed his own. Yet here he was, awed by the house before him and aching to tell Alec in great detail the things he loved about the home. Unfortunately, he was utterly speechless.

“I think it does the job. It’s home at any rate,” Alec said, a smile creeping onto his face. Payne noticed the corners of his eyes crinkled with his laughter. Someday he’d have little wrinkles there that would only serve to enhance the masculine beauty of his owner. “There are three spare bedrooms on the third floor down the hallway from mine. You can have your pick.” Payne nodded and continued to stare as the car pulled into the drive and stopped. “Payne? Are you all right?”

Payne gave him his full attention. “I’m fine. I’m sorry, Alec. I am…a bit overwhelmed.”

Alec nodded and looked satisfied with his answer. “Well, once you pick out a room, you’re welcome to take a nap until dinner. Otherwise, I’ll answer any questions you may have.”

“I would like that,” Payne said, smiling shyly. His owner was really quite kind.

“Take all the time you need.”

Payne chose the bedroom closest to Alec’s master suite. It was a lovely spring-green-and-cream room which bespoke a quiet elegance. It suited Payne’s tastes perfectly. He put up his entire wardrobe, which took up two of the five drawers of his dresser, and gave himself another tour of the room. He put the Holo-Pic of his sister by his bedside and then stripped off his clothing to slide between the sheets.

Alec was gone to shower and had left him alone to collect his thoughts and nap before they broke their fast. But now that he was alone, all he could think about was his new Master. His body came to life at the thought. He pictured Alec’s piercing blue eyes and found his hand slipping beneath the sheets to stroke his growing erection.

“Oh…” Payne breathed as he stroked himself from root to tip. “Ah.” That was nice. He wasn’t usually allowed to touch himself unless given express permission. Self-pleasuring had been a designated half-hour session that was blocked between his visual presentation lesson and his aftercare lesson.

He moaned as he fantasized about Alec, soaped and slick, pinning him to the shower wall and using that delicious body to pound his way into his heart. He’d never felt such an overwhelming hunger for someone. He’d never been free enough to jerk his own cock to completion, and he found himself thoroughly enjoying the newfound privilege. After all, his new Master hadn’t forbidden it.

With a kick he threw off the comforter and sheets and arched into the tight circle of his hands. “Oh god,” he muttered as he rubbed the head of his already pre-cum-slicked prick. “Alec,” he whispered, testing the name on his lips as he pumped his hips in a counterthrust to his pumping hand. It felt right to say it. He was close to orgasm, already panting and moist with sweat. His balls drew up painfully.

A soft gasp from the doorway drew his attention.

* * * *

“Oh fuck.” Payne hadn’t even noticed that Alec had knocked on the door to check on him. He’d opened the door at the sound of a moan on the other side and found himself starring at the gorgeous display Payne was unwittingly putting on for him.

Payne froze. His eyes widened, and he bit his bottom lip like a child caught with his hand in the cookie jar.

“Oh, please continue,” Alec said in a strangled voice. He had been instantly hard since he’d opened the door, and all the blood was not in his brain to carry on intelligent conversation. Those pretty white teeth sank harder into Payne’s bottom lip.

Payne stammered. “I–I’m sorry—I’d just never been allowed—I didn’t think you’d mind…”

“I don’t mind, sweetheart,” Alec assured, his eyes glued to his cock. “Continue.” He licked his dry lips and raked Payne with his gaze.

“You…want to watch me?” Payne asked, looking unsure of himself.

Alec smiled and gestured to his very aroused body. “If you’re comfortable with that, I’d love to.”

Payne didn’t reply but instead continued to work his cock for Alec’s pleasure. He made the most sensual sounds in the back of his throat as he met Alec’s eyes with a face clouded with pleasure. His hand moved quickly on his cock, obviously racing toward the finishing line.

Payne inhaled sharply. “You smell so good.” He moaned again, and Alec nearly moaned with him. “I want you like nothing—never felt like this—Oh god! Sorry, not making sense.” His aroused rambling just made Alec all the hotter. His right hand came down on its own volition and rubbed himself through the soft material of his boxer briefs.

Alec growled despite himself. “That’s it. Show me how much you want me.” He didn’t want to scare his new Vessel with his blatant “come fuck me” attitude, but ever since Payne had whispered his name, he’d been dying to get the guy in the sack.

Payne moaned at his guttural words. Alec couldn’t help but grin at that. He really was made just for him.

“I’m going to touch myself, Payne. I’m going to jerk off while I watch you. Are you okay with that?”

“Oh, yes, please,” Payne begged. “I’m close.” He groaned.

“Oh fuck,” Alec growled, jerking at the button of his boxer briefs, popping it off in his hurry and sending it flying across the room. He took himself roughly in hand.

“Can I come, Alec?” Payne asked. He was perched on the edge of completion, pre-cum slicking every movement of his hand. He was beautiful like that. He watched as Alec jerked his own straining cock. Alec’s mouth watered at the thought of taking Payne’s long, thick length down his throat.

“Come for me,” Alec commanded in a low, gravelly voice that showed his need. Payne shuddered and obeyed. Alec groaned, and his entire body tensed as Payne’s figure jerked upward. He came in long pearly jets over his chest and abdomen. Alec kept jerking until the tingling at the base of his spine threw him headlong into orgasm and swamped him with pleasure. He wrung every ounce of pleasure from his prick as he shuddered through wave after wave of ecstasy. Finally, he sagged against the doorframe.

It was then the mess he’d made registered.
Hmmm, well, I’m going to have to come up with a better system for this
.

* * * *

Payne’s lids slid open languidly as his panting breaths slowed. His heart regained a normal rhythm, and he sighed.

“God, you are so hot when you do that,” Alec complimented. “You have the prettiest dick I have ever seen.”

Desire speared Payne all over again at his words. His earlier fantasy rushed back to him as he rolled out of bed and dropped to his knees before his owner.

“Alec,” he whispered. “May I suck you?”

Alec swallowed. “Yes. I don’t know how useful I will be, considering how hard I came. But…” He gestured to his slowly hardening length, and Payne dropped his head forward and licked the slit of Alec’s straining cock. Alec groaned and wound his hands through Payne’s hair. Payne put his hands gently on Alec’s hips to steady himself as he bobbed his head up and down his owner’s hard length.

More
. Payne was almost giddy as he slid farther down, nearly choking himself.
Give me more. I need this
. He wasn’t sure why he was so desperate, but he knew that he had to consume Alec in every way possible. He’d never been so enamored with someone. Though he was technically a virgin, he was educated in all ways to please his owner.

Alec obliged his thought and pumped himself desperately into Payne’s willing mouth. Payne sucked his body harder. He hoped he was doing it right. He’d practiced on a carrot stick more than once at his lessons, but it really wasn’t the same. Nothing had prepared him for the scent, the taste, and the texture of the hard cock in his mouth.

“Payne, I’m going to come,” Alec warned, his whole body straining toward completion.

Payne slid down until Alec’s body met the back of his throat. His eyes watered and his head spun as his air was momentarily cut off. If blow jobs were this good, Payne was going to die when they got to actual intercourse. Alec emptied his cum into his mouth with a moan of gratitude.

* * * *

Payne pulled back with a dazzled look on his face, and his eyes practically shining with satisfaction. He licked his lips to catch an errant drop of semen, and Alec nearly groaned. His sexy Vessel’s mouth looked swollen from the ordeal and somehow undeniably sexy.

“Thank you,” Alec said, his voice hoarse from growling out his pleasure a moment before. His legs were shaking from the intensity, and he couldn’t remember the last time he had came twice in one tussle. He looked down at the angel of a Vessel at his feet and cupped Payne’s cheek as their eyes locked without a word passing between them. Something shifted, and the moment took on a poignant quality and filled the silence with the promise of more.

He cleared his throat and attempted to speak again to break the heaviness. “Still want to take that nap?” Alec asked after an endless moment. Payne nodded, and Alec helped him to his feet. His Vessel padded toward the bathroom, no doubt looking for a rag to wipe up with. “Mind if I sleep with you?”

Payne paused before half turning back to him. “If it pleases you.”

Alec came up behind him and wrapped his arms around his shoulders to nuzzle the back of his neck. “That’s not what I asked, Payne. It doesn’t matter what would please me. Would you like for me to sleep beside you?” Despite the Facility’s training, Alec didn’t want a mindless automaton. Even if he was a nontraditional boyfriend, Payne would hopefully fit into the role nicely.

Payne sighed and leaned into Alec’s touch. “Yes. That would please me very much.”

Alec gave him another squeeze before releasing him. They would get along just fine. Alec was a cuddler, and he hoped that Payne was the same. They’d already proved themselves to be very compatible with the sexual aspect of their new relationship. He sincerely wanted the rest to fall easily into place.

“Alec, I am happy with our sex,” Payne murmured as he reemerged from the bathroom with a couple of washcloths. Payne’s cheeks reddened as Alec started chuckling. “What I mean is, I really enjoyed what we, er, did. Is—” He swallowed. “Is actual sex as good?”

Alec laughed. “You’re seriously a virgin? You’re a Pleasure model.”

Payne turned almost purple. “We are kept pure for our future owners.”

“Ah. I didn’t know that. I’m the face, but the details are my dad’s jurisdiction. I apologize for the assumption
.” I really should keep up with training protocols
. He knew next to nothing about the Vessels outside the advertisements. Unlike his biomedical-engineer father, he’d majored in business and marketing.

“I’m not insulted. It’s a legitimate assumption. Pleasure Vessels have a reputation for skill. They just don’t tell people that we’re skilled more in theory than practice.” Payne mopped up his chest before kneeling at Alec’s feet to clean his spent cock.

When he finished, he stood and motioned Alec toward the bed. “I’ve also been trained in massage therapy if you care for—” He yawned so wide his jaw cracked. “Sorry, if you would care for a rub down before you rest.”

Alec chuckled. “I think we both just need a few minutes of shut-eye.”

Payne gave him a grateful smile. “Thanks.”

They slipped beneath the covers of the bed without ceremony, and he drew Payne into the protective circle of his arms. Alec’s breath teased the back of his neck as he fell into a doze almost immediately. Encircling him in a cage of steely flesh made Alec feel protective rather than trapped in an unwanted commitment. He breathed in Payne’s soft, clean scent of shampoo and evergreen soap, and as sleep claimed him, Alec could only think of how good it felt to hold him.
