N: I promise to try. That’s the only promise I can make right now that I know I won’t break.

I decide not to reply. I can be patient. I can.

Chapter Eight

It happened. During the twenty-four hours and beyond that followed, to Noah’s credit, he began trying. The best part is, it worked. I promised him I’d be patient and here we are, a month later, no sex, but I don’t care. Yep, Pierce isn’t getting laid and he doesn’t care. I can’t believe it myself, but Noah is making sure I’m satisfied in other ways. I’ve stuck with my rule: I’m not giving unless I’m receiving, so as much as I’m sure he wants to fuck me, I won’t let him. It’s an eye for an eye, or in this case, a hole for a hole. I’m really hoping he doesn’t make me wait too much longer, because every day, I’m becoming weaker.

There was a giant leap in the right direction, though. Noah and Madeline announced their ‘break-up’ to their families. Apparently, neither side took it well, but they assured them that it was the right thing to do. Noah gave Madeline a very large parting gift, which she plans to spend travelling and seeing the world. Being committed to a man since university and staying put for his career must’ve been hard on her. At least now, she’ll get to see the world comfortably. She left for Asia this morning. I’m happy for her, and so is Noah; she was his ‘girl’. His Harbour.

Today is a usual day for us, and I love it. We’re both at work; Noah is in his oversized office, a few floors up, having meetings and being the boss. I’m working in my office with my team on a case that I could do alone. It amazes me that some of these guys have law degrees. I know that at noon, Harbour will head out for lunch, and Noah will call me to eat with him. It’s not that I don’t trust Harbour—I love her, but Noah wants to, no, he needs to keep us a secret until he works out exactly what he wants. Actually, he knows what he wants; he wants me. He’s just trying to work out if I’m worth risking his relationship with his family for.

Noah’s father is an outspoken anti-gay rights campaigner. In other words, his dad is a homophobic asshole. This is where my concern lies; I could be waiting forever. Noah doesn’t want to upset his father and his father will never accept that his son is a homosexual. Unless one of them concedes, they will never see eye to eye. Noah is thirty-two years old and scared of his daddy. Liking cock should be the last thing he’s worried about.

On cue, my phone beeps.
