didn’t
mean to keep this from you.”
    Herman put up a hand. “Let me finish. I’ve never had a
paranormal as a lover and have no complaints so far. I guess you’ll have to let
me know when something comes up that is unfamiliar to me. Keep me in the loop
and let me learn. We’ll see how it goes.”
    Steve smiled. “I will.”
    “Now three of your issues are gone. I don’t know what we’re
going to do about the dad nightmares. Something to work on.” Herman’s eyebrows
rose. “Are you ever going to shapeshift during sex?”
    “No.” Steve leaned over the bed and gave Herman a quick
kiss.
    “How about when there’s a full moon?”
    Steve froze. “Yes. We are compelled to shift during a full
moon.” He pulled his phone from a pocket and opened the calendar. “That reminds
me. This is February and there are two dark cycles of the moon this month.
Guess you’re safe.” He pinched Herman’s arm.
    Herman let out a breath. “Now tell me why you look beat up.”
    Steve explained what had happened to him and Eric at the
club. “I’m sure that Merlotti and Barbara have something going on. There have
been many calls to and from the club on her phone.”
    “I’m not surprised.” He shook his head in dismay. “My dad was
good to her, too.”
    “We still have no proof of anyone killing him.”
    “What about that Merlotti guy?”
    “There was nothing to indicate forced entry into the house.
We studied the police report and checked everything out the day we were there
looking for you.”
    “Maybe Barbara gave him a key.”
    “Possible.” Steve nodded. He winced as he pulled off his
shirt. Bruised areas were starting to show up on his arms and chest.
    “That looks painful.” Herman glanced at his injured lover’s
body.
    “A little.”
    “Let me help you get cleaned up. You’ll take some
anti-inflammatories and rest tonight.”
    They moved to the bathroom, where Herman tugged off Steve’s
pants. There were areas on his legs where bruises showed. As he pulled down
Steve’s briefs, he moved to his knees on the floor and kissed each perfectly
protruding hipbone. He felt horrible that Steve was hurt.
    He moved to Steve’s cock and pulled it fully into his mouth.
His lips sucked and his tongue twirled as Steve’s rod grew larger. He only
wanted for Steve to feel better. He kissed the velvety head gently.
    “This will make me forget my bad day.” Steve tried to smile
but lost his balance and stumbled to one side. “Oops. Almost fell.”
    Herman stood. He refused to let Steve get hurt further
today. “Let me turn on the water and you can sit on the shower seat. It’s less
dangerous than you standing.” An elderly woman had lived in the apartment
before Steve, and had left a shower seat intact inside the tub. It was perfect
for relaxation and, hopefully, the sex that hadn’t yet been attempted.
    As soon as the water was hot, Steve sat down on the thick
plastic seat and closed his eyes. The water rushed down and quickly steamed up
the bathroom. Herman removed his own clothes and climbed in. He went to his
knees in front of Steve and spread his legs. He caressed his dick and balls
with wet fingers and pressed his mouth to Steve’s inner thighs with quick licks
and kisses.
    Herman looked up. “If you’re able to scoot your butt to the
end of the seat, I can suck your cock and finger your ass at the same time.”
    “Mmm.” Steve grinned and did what he was told.
    Herman moved his mouth to Steve’s shaft and swirled his
tongue around the beautiful head. He took it completely into his mouth, and
savored the slickness in the back of his throat. His finger slid over Steve’s
balls and into his tight ass. Steve moaned as Herman’s slippery finger moved
back and forth through the thick ring of muscles, so he added another. The only
thing that mattered right now was for Steve to feel better.
    Herman moved a finger up farther until he found the spot he
wanted to be. As he touched Steve’s prostate, Steve
