Chapter 8

Sweat beaded Lucius’s forehead as something intense flared through him when he stared down at Ari and heard the man whisper his name in such a husky, needy tone. He had to fight his overwhelming desire to be close to the man when he knew he needed to be a warrior.

Anxiety balled up in his stomach. He was bewildered and unsure of himself for the first time in his life. Ari made him feel things—physically and emotionally—that he had never felt before. Lucius wasn’t sure how to deal with that let alone process the things he was feeling.

So he chose not to.

Lucius cleared his throat and shifted his weight back away from Ari as he settled back into being what he knew how to be—detached and unemotional.

A Spartan.

“I need to return to my duties,” he said in what he felt was a pretty damn good even tone of voice for someone that had just had his entire world turned upside down. Ari gasped as Lucius moved to the edge of the bed and stood, quickly and efficiently buttoning his pants then pulling on his flak jacket and gun holster.

“You’re just going to leave me like this?”

Lucius paused and stared down at Ari. The man had pushed his pajama bottoms down to his thighs and he had his hard cock gripped firmly in his hand. The tip was an angry red, the slit on top leaking copious amounts of pre-cum down the thickly veined sides as Ari’s hand moved up and down the long shaft.

Lucius gulped when he felt a rush of heat flood his body, hardening his cock right back up. He tried to still his nerves, to turn away from the turmoil this man, and the feelings he ignited inside of Lucius.

“I must return to my duties.” That seemed to be the safest answer.

Hell, it seemed like the only answer.

“Get out!” Ari snapped, his voice clipped and angry, his face flushing red then turning pale. “I want you and your men off my property.”

Lucius cocked his head, confused by the vehemence he could hear in Ari’s voice. The man was clearly upset. His face was pinched, flushed, his eyes growing watery and red. His delicate little hands were clenched in the bed sheets that he had pulled up over his lap, his knuckles going white.

“Get out!” Ari shouted again when Lucius didn’t move.

Lucius just stood there and stared. Ari was screaming at him to leave, but every instinct he had screamed at him to stay. Lucius shook his head as he backed away. Even though he felt like he was in some sort of battle, he was not trained for this.

He had no defense against Ari.

“I must return to my duties.” Lucius spun on his heels and ran away from someone for the first time in his life. It was clear to him that Ari was dangerous not only to his mission but his sanity. The man was making him lose his mind.

Doing as Ari demanded was his best option, maybe his only option.
