If it would have been necessary to kick Sundhill in the face in order to get Black out of JC1's house, Calyx would have strapped on his heaviest boot. Luckily for the Golden Wonder's good looks, he didn't put up a fight when Calyx grabbed Black by the wrist and yanked him out of JC1.

Maybe it was the expression on Calyx's face that warned Sundhill not to push him. It apparently must have been fierce since even Black didn't bother arguing with the manhandling in front of his former idol. Black seemed to have become suspiciously easy when it came to letting men push him around and Calyx was sick of it, even if it came at his hands.

"You drive," he ordered Black, because he was pretty sure in his current state he'd torpedo them headfirst into a light post.

Black obediently slid behind the wheel.

He continually shot glances at Calyx as he drove, obviously waiting for the explosion they both knew was coming. Calyx crossed his arms and stared straight ahead, making him squirm. He wasn't going to put Black out of his misery so easily. Oh, no.

"Are you going to talk to me or are you going to stew?" Black finally asked in a subdued voice, as if he were braced against impending violence.

"Just drive the fucking car."

"I'd prefer you yell at me to this silence."

"Oh, don't you worry, Darkness. You'll get what's coming to you."

Black didn't say another word, which infuriated Calyx because he wanted Black to grovel or at least apologize. But the stonewall act was to be expected of Darkness. No doubt the man's shields were being fortified with every passing mile.

That was okay, though, because Calyx knew how to scale them.

They parked in the garage and Black waited warily by the house door as Calyx came around the front of the vehicle. Calyx grabbed him by the elbow and pushed him inside. He could smell Sundhill's cologne on Black's clothing.

He plucked at Black's jacket. "I want to fucking strip off his stink right here," he snarled as he dragged Black toward the stairs.

"Don't," Black said with an edge to his voice, the first show of resistance he'd made so far. "Not in front of the team."

"Oh, I see. It's okay to whore yourself in front of your boyfriend but god forbid your friends see you doing it."

"I warned you not to come with me."

They were midway up the stairs. Calyx nearly leaped on him. "You sure as hell didn't warn me you were going to do that! Did it slip your mind that Sundhill wasn't wearing a Bliss tab? I felt every fucking second of that man's lust for you, Darkness! I felt everything he felt when he was talking about fucking your face and ordering you around. My god, I need to scrub my brain out now because of that!"

Bleakness swept Black's face. "I'd forgotten. I didn't mean for you to experience that."

"No, but you did it anyway," Calyx bit out, shoving Black up the remaining steps.
