Chapter Six
Zack hated himself just a little bit when he said that, but the relief he felt coming from Mike made it impossible for him to deny the other man. Mike wanted to go home. He was freaked out. He needed some time, maybe a night or two. Zack was definitely going to be calling in sick for his job at the call center because after today, and the day he was going to have tomorrow, there was no way he was going back in to work.
At least not until he had the chance to ease Mike into what happened. He’d deal with the dent in his next pay stub later.
“God, that was fucking crazy!” Mike laughed the second they were back home, the chain pulled across their apartment door. “So good to be home!”
“Yeah, I guess so,” Zack said, then he immediately went to check the traps for new bugs. He didn’t see anything scurrying, so that was a good sign. The bugs hadn’t been so bad since the winter rolled around, but he didn’t want to risk that their specific apartment turned into a breeding ground for the little bastards once it got warmer.
“You want something to drink? I think I need something after that.” Mike went to the fridge and rummaged through their slim pickings. He grabbed the last can of Coke Zero and two glasses, filling them both with ice before pouring.
“Man, I’ve been telling you. What did I tell you?” Mike asked. “No more walking alone when dusk rolls around. We can’t do that anymore. We should dye our hair, too. As soon as we get our next pay in. We’ll get black hair. You don’t often see a dragon with a black-haired lover behind them, do you?”
“They can sniff out the power they get from a person. Supposedly.” Zack was wishing he’d bothered to ask before they left Tory’s amazing condo building. He really wished he was there right now, and not just because the place was spacious, beautiful, and most likely bug free.
He couldn’t get the image of Tory’s face out of his head.
The man had put on a brave front, sending them off with a paid cab and his blessing, but even when he smiled, there was something sad in his eyes. Zack felt it wafting from the other man, and now that they were so far away from each other, he also felt the loss of him.
He might as well be on the other side of the Earth.
Fingers snapping in front of his face yanked him out of the sad little haze he’d fallen into, and Mike’s concerned face was suddenly right in front of his.
“Are you all right?”
He didn’t feel all right. He felt like complete shit and like he didn’t want to do anything else but go back to Tory’s arms and the eternal orgasm he offered.
“You and I need to talk,” Zack said. He needed to get this part over with as quickly as possible. He had no
