Rico wasn’t rubbing his cock all over him. Jake hadn’t realized that he wasn’t off the hook if he pretended that he couldn’t take another dicking. Rico took it upon himself to find a comfortable solution, by placing himself between Jake’s legs and pressing him down. This way, their cocks touched and a lot of friction occurred.

That also gave them free reign to kiss. Jake felt exhilaration and dread at the same time. Rico was slowly turning his thoughts into mush. His tongue was everywhere, insistent and demanding. They were kissing and losing themselves in it.

“Too bad we need to breathe,” Rico said when he gave Jake a small break. “You know, I do enjoy my beta boys, but I don’t always kiss them.”

“How so?” Jake asked, acutely aware by how adept he seemed to be at digging himself a bigger hole by asking so many questions.

“Dunno.” Rico traced an invisible line over Jake’s eyebrow. “I don’t always feel like kissing them. Okay, that’s how the guys I’m only hooking up with are, anyway. You know, ready to get down and dirty fast and then forget about it.”

“Don’t they feel… neglected?” Jake knew he needed to choose his words carefully.

“Neglected?” Rico snorted. “They’re not omegas. Frankly, sometimes I think they hook up with me only because they want to brag to their buddies about having sucked an alpha’s cock.”

Jake felt his skin heating up as he listened Rico talk so directly about his hookups. “Do you always fuck them?”

“Yeah. I know how people envy alphas, but for me, fucking is a need,” Rico said. “Not only for me. Alphas need to fuck.”

“Is that why Erin goes to brothels?”

Rico grimaced. “Erin is a little jerk. He could fuck betas, too. But he’s fixated on omegas. For all that I can’t stand those shady fuckers, it’s like he’s the opposite.”

“What about your older brother?”

“Hmm, well, Teo is different. Though I suspect that he has someone he keeps away from the family. Dad is too busy to keep an eye on him – or any of us – but even he suspects that. Teo denies it all the time. My guess is that is someone Dad might disagree with.”

“Maybe his lover is a beta,” Jake said.

Rico shook his head. “I don’t think so. It’s the same omega smell that he comes home with from time to time. So it’s definitely an omega.”

Matteo seemed to put-together. If he preferred to keep his lover hidden, who could tell why he was doing it? Except for him having a strong reason to do that.

“But why are we talking about my brothers when I only want to do this?” Rico pulled Jake into another deep kiss.

Jake had to agree. He resorted to talking only so he could catch a break. It was only this much he could do to keep himself from spilling the beans to Rico about his omega status. Good thing the doctor had given him enough suppressants to last him through his six months of employment.

It hurt to think of the time when he’d have to leave the Salazars, provided that nothing went wrong, and he remained undiscovered. Allowing himself to kiss Rico and spend so much time with him would be his doom. And he wasn’t thinking about the Salazars deciding to punish him for keeping such an important secret away from them. No, he was thinking about how his heart would break when he left.

Rico was rubbing his cock against Jake’s. The friction was barely enough, but neither of them showed any sign that they wanted to change the position. It was slowly dawning on Jake that he was getting himself in too deep.

The sounds their kissing made were so lewd. Rico snuck one hand to hold Jake’s ass and was moving his hips slowly. It was uncanny how well they fit. Though, and Jake couldn’t stop thinking of that, he was completely new to being with an alpha, while Rico had done the same thing dozens and dozens of times, if not more, with a lot of people.

The rapid knock on the door stopped them before their friction could yield any results. Jake felt so frustrated he could cry.

“Go away,” Rico barked. “I mean it, Erin!”

“How do you know it’s him?” Jake tried to move, but Rico held him in place.

“Because he’s my baby brother, and he has a fucking way to interrupt me whenever I feel good.”

Jake couldn’t stop his heart from doing little imaginary leaps inside his chest. Rico felt good, and he felt good because they were together in bed kissing and fooling around.

“I know you have Jake!” Erin shouted from behind the door. “You said he’d be my bodyguard, not your plaything!”

Jake felt his blood draining from his face. “Does even Erin know?”

Rico shrugged. “The kid’s got a nose on him. I bet he can feel your needy arousal from where he stands.”

“What?” Jake was sure he was growing paler. The head of the family would learn next about this whole thing, and wouldn’t that put him in a delicate position, to put it mildly?

“I’m kidding,” Rico said, grinning. “He can’t smell that. But he knows me, and how much I like strong beta boys.”

“What am I supposed to do now?”

“Don’t fret, babe. If we ignore him, Erin will go away.”

“That’s not--”

The knocking intensified.

“I don’t believe it will work,” Jake whispered. “Please let me get dressed.”

Rico seemed reluctant, but eventually moved away and rolled on his back, looking like a kid left without his lollipop. However, as Jake tried to get out of bed, he caught his wrist and pulled him back for another kiss.

It was odd to do that while Erin threatened to take down the door. But if there was something Jake had deeply ingrained in his bones that was a sense of duty. He’d been hired by the Salazar family to be Erin’s bodyguard, not Rico’s… he didn’t know what exactly he was to Rico. Erin’s choice of ‘plaything’ made him wince. He truly hoped Rico saw him as more than that, though he had absolutely zero reason to believe that.

“Rico, I’m going to tell Dad if you don’t let me in right now. And stop annoying Jake. He’s not like that.”

Oh, boy. Erin had no idea just how much Jake was ‘like that’.

Rico seemed to enjoy his brother’s annoyance while he observed Jake getting dressed.

“You’ll walk around today with my load in your ass,” he said, just as Jake was running his hands through his hair to make it behave.

It was true. It was there, and Jake could feel it. It seemed like his ass enjoyed holding it in, too.

“What should I tell Erin?” he asked, throwing a nervous look at Rico.

“Don’t tell him anything. He’s going to draw his own conclusions. More like jump to them. He’ll believe whatever the heck he wants. It’s funny to watch him being silly.”

Jake wasn’t so sure about that. But since Erin had guessed the truth, it was for the better if he didn’t dally.

He went to get the door.

Erin gave him a startled look, as if he hadn’t been expecting to see him there, which was odd since he’d been shouting about that exact thing for the last five minutes.

“Jake. I hope Rico didn’t pester you. You have free rein from me to kick him in the nuts if he insists on taking his dick out.”

Jake stole a glance at Rico, still naked, still lying in bed. He pushed Erin outside to prevent him from seeing his brother like that.

“I… will keep that in mind,” he said.

Erin didn’t seem capable of smelling anything, after all. Jake felt relieved. The Salazars would definitely be the death of him one day, with their quirky personalities and all.

“Do you wish to go outside again?” he asked.

Erin huffed. “No. I need to study.”

“I’m afraid I can’t help you with that.”

“Maybe,” Erin agreed. “But you can keep me company. Dad wants to see me in finance, and it’s all so boring. I might end up gouging my eyes out, and since you’re my bodyguard, you need to be on call and stop me from doing that. What do you say?”

“I’ll keep you company,” Jake promised.

“Great.” Erin grabbed his hand. “The tutor is a stick in the mud, so keep that in mind.”

“Wait, are you going to study with a tutor? What am I supposed to do, then?”

“Be there for me, Jake,” Erin said with a suffering sigh. “You’re the only one who can help me get through this.”

Jake wasn’t so sure he liked the sound of that. Erin was such an imp, always up to no good. But, as his bodyguard, he had to do what his employer wanted.
