  Chapter One

  Logan stretched out his legs and reached his arms above his head.

  A moan seeped past his lips as the soft sheets lying across his body caressed his naked skin. The sensation sent a shiver down his spine.

  His body felt loose and relaxed as if he just had a full-body massage.

  He must be dreaming because he hadn’t felt this at ease since his little gift kicked in a few months ago. Everything was blissfully quiet. He couldn’t possibly be awake.

  I have to be dreaming.

  He slowly opened his eyes and was met by darkness. He blinked a few times, letting his eyes adjust to the blackened room. Taking in his surroundings, he realized he didn’t have a clue as to where he was or how he’d gotten there. As he sat up, the sheet covering him fell away, and he noticed he didn’t have any clothes on. He quickly snatched the sheet back up and instantly regretted the action. His vision became fuzzy, and his heart beat rapidly in his chest. A light sweat broke out across his skin, and a strong case of arousal caused his skin to itch and burn with need.

  Heat like he never felt before swamped him. Flinging the sheet off his body, he started to palm his growing erection. He moaned loudly

  as blood filled his hardening cock. The need for release was so strong he thought his dick would explode.

  “Hey, it’s okay. Calm down, honey.”

  Logan had his eyes clenched so tight he couldn’t have pried them open with a knife. He was too turned on to think of anything else. The man who belonged to the mystery voice touched him. He arched up into the warm hands, seeking more of the heated skin-to-skin contact.

  The strong need to be filled and fucked into the mattress had him begging.

  “Please, oh god, please,” he moaned loudly. Since this was all a dream he didn’t feel bad letting his dream lover fulfill his desires.

  “What, honey? What do you need? I’ll do anything.” The man rubbed his hands up and down Logan’s arms, and it only fueled the already-growing fire.

  “Fuck me.” He grabbed the hand on his arm and thrust it down between his legs.

  “I…ah…I think we should talk first.” The man tried to pull away from him.

  “No. Sex first then we can talk.” He tugged the man down to him.

  In his dreams he always woke up right at the pinnacle part, and he wanted to get the show on the road before that happened.

  He slowly opened his eyes. His breath caught at the sight before him. The man was beautiful. Even in the poor lighting he could see that. His short dark hair was spiked on top of his head. Logan ran his fingers through the soft strands then fisted his hands in the silkiness.

  He brought the man’s mouth down to his and shoved his tongue past his dream lover’s lips. Need wound him so tight he couldn’t help being rough. He needed to come and soon.

  The kiss deepened, and the man climbed on top of him, laying chest to chest. Logan started to suck on the man’s tongue, tasting every part he could. A woodsy blend with a sharp berry flavor exploded over his taste buds.

  As he came up for air, Logan licked his lips and stared up at the man. His lover’s eyes gazed down at him, and his breathing came out in he
avy pants. The moonlight coming through the curtains reflected off the man’s eyes, and they appeared to glow in the darkness. In the shining depths, Logan could see the arousal blooming. It didn’t take a genius to see that the man wanted him just as much.

  Logan reached down and pulled at the bottom of the man’s shirt then wrenched it up his body and over his head. Next, he went for the fastening of the man’s jeans. When the button gave way, Logan tugged down the zipper. The man’s pants fell slackened at his hips, and his heavy erection fell forward.

  At seeing the thick, long cock sticking out toward him, Logan licked his tongue across his lips. The man was definitely packing a serious piece of meat between his legs, and Logan was more than willing to test-drive the equipment.

  Reaching down, he wrapped his fingers around the soft skin pulled tight over the man’s shaft. His dream lover hissed out a breath and rocked into Logan’s hand. A smile spread across Logan’s face as he watched the man come undone from his touch.

  Logan tightened his grip and pumped faster and faster. He wanted his lover to come, to cover him in his seed as it shot out of his cock, warming Logan’s skin.

  “Slow down, baby.” The man gripped his wrist hard. “You keep that up, I’m going to come before I ever get inside you.”

  “That’s what I want. I want you to shoot your cream all over my chest and then I want to rub it in like it was lotion. I want you to be a part of me.” Logan didn’t know where these thoughts were coming from. First off, he was dreaming. Second, he had never acted like this with any of his past lovers. Why now, in a dream, did he feel the need to have a connection to another human being?

  The man grabbed both of Logan’s wrists and brought his hands up to rest next to his head. He was pinned down as the man hovered above him. The man took deep, uneven breaths as he held his eyes

  closed. Logan spread his legs wide to accommodate his lover. His actions caused the man to hiss. He had never heard a man hiss quite like that before. It was almost animalistic. But this was all a dream, so Logan couldn’t care less what sounds the man made in the throes of passion.

  He arched up so their cocks rubbed against each other. At the contact, the man opened his eyes. Logan’s breath caught at the sight.

  The pupils appeared to be vertical. The man blinked, shook his head, then opened his eyes again. They appeared to be back to looking normal.

  “You don’t know what you are asking for,” the man said through clenched teeth. Logan could see him barely hanging on to his control.

  “I know what I want, and I want you. Take me.” A smiled curled his upper lip. “I can feel how much you want to.” He pushed his hips up off the bed. “You know you want to be buried so deep inside me you forget your own name.” He pushed at the man again. “Now fuck me.”

  The man grinned down at him. “You’re very demanding.”

  “Yeah, I know. Just pound my ass already. I need to come. I need to feel you.” Logan closed his eyes and took a deep breath. It’d been a while since the last time he’d had sex. He was picky about the guys he took to his bed, especially since he started hearing voices. There was nothing worse than being on a date and hearing every sordid little detail going through that person’s mind. It ruined more than one potential relationship. But since this was a dream, he could enjoy the sex without any background noise.

  The man moved Logan’s hands up then guided his fingers around the wrought iron headboard. “I’ll fuck you, but I want you to keep your hands here. I like having you stretched out for me to feast upon.”

  The man’s head dipped down to suck one of Logan’s nipples deep into his mouth. Logan grunted as he began to circle his hips. He needed more.

  Logan gripped the headboard tight as his dream lover slowly worked his way down his body. The man sucked, licked, and nipped at every inch of Logan’s body. When he reached where Logan’s dick lay against his stomach, the man paused. Hot breathes of air fanned across the weeping tip of Logan’s cock.

  Pre-cum dripped from the small slit as the man tongued the opening drawing out more liquid. Before Logan could beg, the man engulfed the swollen cap, sucking down his length. Logan bucked up off the bed, unable to withstand the teasing oral play. He loved a good blow job, but what he needed now was a good hard lay.

  “Please,” Logan cried out.

  The silky hot mouth left his shaft. He felt the bed dip as the man reached into the drawer of the nightstand. He heard some shuffling around, then his dream man whispered out a curse.

  “Baby, I don’t have any stuff.”

  Logan grabbed the man by the hair and yanked him up to his face.

  “Then use your spit,” he said, growling out his frustration.

  The man’s lips curved up, and Logan was blinded by his white teeth. “Yes, sir.”

  Logan spread his legs farther apart then pulled up his knees to rest his feet on the bed. There was plenty of room for the man as he edged his way down Logan’s body, dropping kisses here and there as he went. Logan felt like screaming “hallelujah” when the guy finally reached his cock. The man licked a path from tip to base then continued on down. Logan jumped as a wet tongue circled his entrance. He started to pant. His heart raced out of control as the tongue began to pierce at his hole. Good god he needed more.

  As if the man was reading his mind, he pulled back and spit at Logan’s hole. When he started to push a finger in, Logan kicked the hand away. The man shot worried eyes up at him.

  “None of that. I want you to stick that massive cock of yours inside me, now.” It was all a dream anyway. It wasn’t like he would have anything to feel bad about in the morning or any pain to deal

  with. He might as well go all out and be as kinky and rough as he wanted. “Fuck me like you mean it,” he teased the man.

  Doing as he was told, the man spat on his hole again then sat up.

  He held Logan’s eyes as he spit in his hand and rubbed it up and down his length. Logan ran his tongue across his lips. He was eager to taste the fine specimen in front of him. Very slowly, the man moved forward. The head of his cock breached the muscle barrier. Logan tensed as the burn morphed into erotic desire like nothing he ever felt before, and he needed more.

  Once his dream lover was buried to the hilt, he paused above Logan. Logan tilted his head to the side. He could have sworn he heard a rattling sound. Shaking it off as just a weird part of his dream, he focused back on the hot man on top of him. The man held still as if waiting for a sign. Logan chuckled to himself. He wrapped his legs around the man’s waist and nudged his heels into the man’s lower thighs. He didn’t have to do it twice. The man started to move. After every second inward snap, he’d circle his hips, rubbing the rigid shaft over his prostate, driving Logan insane with need. He started to lift his hips up to meet his lovers. The sound of skin smacking against sweaty skin filled the room.

  “This is everything I’ve ever imagined it would be.” The man moaned. “It’s like your body was made just for mine. It recognizes me.”

  Logan listened to his dream lover babble but really couldn’t care less what he said just as long as he kept moving. The faster he snapped his hips, the higher Logan went on the cusp of the most fantastic orgasm of his life. Just a little more.

  “Please, give it to me. I never want to wake up from this. God, I need you,” Logan couldn’t control his pleading cries. If he didn’t come soon, he felt like he would spontaneously combust.

  The man shifted to his knees and stared down at him. “You want it?” Logan nodded. “Then tell me to claim you. To make you mine forever. Tell me what I need to hear. Say you want this bonding.”

  Logan held the man’s gaze, unsure exactly what he was asking for. This was a dream after all. He’d give the man just about anything as long as Logan got to come at th
e end. “Yes. You can have whatever you want, just don’t stop.”

  Before Logan knew what was going on, his legs were hiked up over the man’s shoulders as he pounded into his ass without mercy.

  The man moved so swiftly Logan didn’t realize what was happening.

  A piercing sharp pain stung his upper thigh where his lover had his mouth glued to Logan’s leg. The initial sting transformed into a fuzzy warmth that filled his body.

  Logan watched as the man licked his lips as he pulled away from Logan’s thigh. Logan could fell wetness drip down his leg. The man had long fangs sticking out of his mouth. He couldn’t explain it, but Logan wasn’t frightened. If anything he wanted to lick the long teeth and let them puncture his skin again and again.

  The man lifted his own wrist to his lips and bit down. When he pulled his arm from his mouth, he also pulled his throbbing sex from Logan’s body. The man smiled down at him as he ran a finger through the blood running down Logan’s leg then across the gash in his own arm. He took the combined fluid and swiped it across the engorged cock standing at full salute.

  It all seemed a little odd to Logan, but he didn’t protest. Truth be told, even with all the weird occurrences going on in this dream, he couldn’t help but be turned on by the sight. The man ravaged his body with such force he couldn’t turn away or stop him.

  The man pulled Logan down the bed and slid his cock back home.

  Logan’s back arched up off the bed as he felt his balls tighten to his body. The man noticed and gripped Logan’s cock and pumped his fist in time with his rapid hip movements.

  Before Logan knew it, his release was upon him. He screamed his pleasure to the ceiling as his hot seed covered the man’s hand and his chest. A smiled formed across Logan’s face. Never had anything ever
