Chapter 12 Owen
I waited by the door, watching Adrian go inside. There was this terrible urge to just run away â not because this was bad, but because it was so good.
It couldnât possibly last.
I wanted to remember the look in his eyes, the way his hand had felt on my leg, the way his lips had felt⦠I didnât want to screw this up, and I had a habit of doing just that. But then, Adrian wasnât just some random fuck. He wasnât just my brother, either. This went so much deeper that I felt like I might drown in it⦠but happily so. I inhaled deeply then went inside, heading to the bathroom to splash off my face and try to cool down. Iâd dressed up a little for our date-not-date, and I briefly considered changing clothes.
I decided against it. I wanted to have the courage to be Master, not Owen, and if I dressed in my usual clothes, I might lose sight of this moment.
I gave Adrian time to do as Iâd ordered â and fuck, that thought was hot â then emerged, heading to his room. The door was closed. I paused for a moment, unsure. Did that mean he didnât want me in there? My foot shifted as I nearly backed away and left. It could be a sign that weâd gone too far and he was thinking better of it, but I forced myself to knock on the door.
âYes⦠Master,â Adrianâs voice called out quietly, without the fear Iâd been dreading and half-expecting to hear.
I gathered myself, straightening my back and ordering myself out of the headspace that was Owen rather than Master. Anything else would only complicate this even more. I turned the door handle, slowly opening the door. My eyes immediately found my brother. I faltered when I saw him there. My breath caught in a hiss, and my heart skipped a beat as I saw the way he held himself.
Adrian was waiting, kneeling naked on the floor, his toys and everything else we might need laid out neatly in front of him. He looked like a porn star or like he was in the start of a dirty movie, but the look in his eyes was more tender than any actor could fake. It was so damn incredible it made the words stick in my throat.
Adrian finally spoke, watching me in that quiet, almost loving, way. âIâm ready, Master.â Breathing was natural. Breathing was something my body did on its own. I didnât have to remember to breathe â but fuck, it felt like it was impossible in that moment. I gaped for a moment longer, licking my lips. Then I stepped in and closed the door behind me, cutting us off from a world that would never understand and leaving us alone in his room.
Sanctuary. It took me a moment to remember what weâd discussed, and I strode farther in. I picked up the collar and gazed at him, though I didnât allow my eyes to linger too long on his nude form.
