 I m sticking with Taps, but I m the liaison for Flash. You won t get rid of me for quite
awhile. He cupped Corey s cheek in his hand.  I love you, want to build a life with you and
have kinky sex every night.
 Once we run this race, I m all yours.
 Best words I ve ever heard.
Chapter Nine
Loren adjusted his hat and put it back on. He believed in Flash, believed in Corey and
Ethan, but he d never expected Ethan to pull out the win. On the last lap with Will right behind
him, Ethan broke away from the main pack line and took the higher lane. Half the pack followed
the two strong trucks and pushed Ethan to win by a fraction of a second.
Loren s heart still raced from the finish. He stood shoulder-to-shoulder with Harlan,
beaming at the team in victory lane.
 You know, Harlan said.  I m glad you convinced me to wait. Going with Flash, even
though it took this long to get both trucks to win, has been worth it. He jabbed Loren with his
elbow.  How s things with you and the crew chief? He s treating you right. You re like a son to
me. I ll step in if I have to.
 You re fine and so is he. Loren clasped his hands behind his back. He couldn t wait to
show Corey the present he d picked up. Harlan had nothing to worry about.  We re very good.
 Well put. Keep it that way. Harlan chuckled then strolled away.
Loren stood amongst the throng of fans, media and other members of the racing
community. When he glanced over to where Corey posed with the rest of the team, his blood
pounded in his veins. His man, his partner, looked so sexy with the trophy to his left. Things
wouldn t be easy for them. The partnership between Flash and Taps could still easily fall apart,
but he wasn t worried. His feelings for Corey were bigger and stronger than any business
partnership.
After what seemed like forever, the pictures were taken, the media addressed and the
truck made it through post inspection.
 Give me half an hour to get things settled, and I ll meet you at the motor coach, Corey
whispered. He kissed Loren on the lips.  This feels good.
 It feels right, Loren replied. He hugged Corey then grinned at the onlookers.  He s my
boyfriend. The words sounded so sweet in his ears.
 Congrats, Corey, Ethan clapped Loren on the back.  You bagged a good one. He
winked then returned to his celebration.
Corey smirked and rolled his eyes.  He s been dying to say something for the last week.
See you in a few?
 You got it. Bone-tired, Loren trudged across the infield to the Taps motor coach. He
couldn t wait to collapse on his bed with Corey at his side. Being in love and respected felt like
heaven. For the first time in a long while, he wasn t worried about hurting his memories of John
and forgetting what they shared. No, he d done that for long enough. Now was the time to move
forward without forgetting the lessons of his past.
He switched on the lights in the coach and carried the box to the bedroom. Loren touched
the box containing his present for Corey twin cock rings. Definitely right. He shucked his
socks and dug his toes into the plush carpet. The races hadn t made him a camping kind of guy,
but he definitely saw the appeal of the gypsy lifestyle his man lived. Well, a gypsy life with a
massive motor coach and a soft bed. A man could only sacrifice so much. Tents weren t for him.
While he waited for Corey, Loren switched his phone to vibrate, turned off his laptop and
tablet then opened the bottle of wine he d left in the fridge. For what had started as a chaotic
hook-up in a bathroom, the relationship suited him just fine.
A knock at the door jarred him from his thoughts. He peeked at the security monitor.
Corey.
 Hey, Loren said and opened the door.
Corey stood at the bottom of the stairs, a hat on his head, a T-shirt clinging to his chest
and jeans slung low on his hips. He d slung a messenger bag across his shoulder.
 You packed light. Planning on getting out of here fast?
 I actually expected to be flying back tonight. Corey stepped past him and entered the
coach.  I had a feeling either Ethan would go all out and win or go all out and fuck up the truck.
Thankfully, he got his act together.
 He s got a great guy at the helm. Loren couldn t help but touch Corey. He flattened his
hand over Corey s heart.  It was in the cards for him to succeed.
 You ve got a lot of faith in us. Corey dropped the bag on the nearby armchair.  Too
much probably.
 Nah. You and Ethan are good together.
 Tonight, we were. Corey hooked his fingers in Loren s belt loops.  I prefer not having
to scramble home to fix a junked truck. Slow and easy rocks. [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
