His bar, Glow, is the place to be in the city of New Amsterdam; Lucian Gray, the son of the mayor, employs Clark as a confidential information man; and Clark’s side venture as part-owner of a BDSM club is quite the profitable release.

In the shower, I…

It was easy to forget himself when lost in Daniel. Easy to forget rules or baggage, anything and everything. He still wanted. Clark searched and couldn’t quite find regret over his behavior, but he still felt—

Exposed. Middle-of-the-desert wearing a neon target that says, “HURT ME NOW.”

Clark tried to organize his thoughts. The dream kept playing over in his mind, but that wasn’t so bad; it was an old dream. Thinking that Brian was Daniel was new, however.

Swallowing and shaking despite himself, Clark rolled onto his side and bit his lip. He looked longingly at Daniel and refused to kick himself for showing how worried and alone and stunned he felt. It was dark. Daniel was asleep. No witnesses, no worries.
