Caged Sanctuary (17 page)

“Oh, one more thing, then we can finish up here. We really should be dressed when company arrives,” Deacon teased. “Do you have a tux?”

Odd question. “Yes.” Why?

“In two weeks there is a gala at Children’s Hospital. I mentioned it recently, I believe. My firm designed the new addition, so I have to attend, and I would like you to accompany me to the event as my date.”

Kade snapped his head up and stared at his Dom, his lover.
Go out? And not just any “out” but to a major event like the gala?
“You want to take me to that? But…. Really?”

The nod he received accompanied a small smile. “I don’t know if you were planning to go already, but that is my desire.”

“Yes!” Kade threw himself forward, wrapping his arms tightly around Deacon’s waist. “Er, I mean, yes, thank you.”

He went to push himself back to sitting, but Deacon wrapped his powerful arms around Kade, holding him close, caressing up and down Kade’s back for a short time. “Thank you, Kade.” He dropped a kiss to the top of Kade’s head. “You’ve made me very happy.”

HOUR
later, Kade sat in the window seat in Deacon’s bedroom, dressed and ready—well, as ready as he could manage to be. As he watched the breeze make the trees sway and the leaves dance across the backyard, he thought about the coming evening. Making dinner, even in a kitchen not set up for him, wouldn’t be that hard, especially with Jake’s help. Sitting on the cushion while Jake knelt beside him, both being fed by their masters, also not a problem. No, what had his heart racing and his hands slightly shaky was the planned session just a few doors down in the playroom. Subbing alongside Jake had him excited, though a bit nervous, as he hadn’t done that in years. But the fact Sam would be there, touching and commanding him as well, scared the hell out Kade. Would he be able to please Jake’s Dom? Would Deacon pay any attention to him, or would he focus more on Jake and what he could do—all the things Kade couldn’t do ran through his head at once.

Lost in thought, he didn’t notice Deacon return until firm lips pressed to the side of his neck. “It’s a lovely view, but I believe you are much prettier to look at, Kade.”

Kade turned and tried to smile up at Deacon, but didn’t think he did so well by the frown suddenly marring Deacon’s handsome face.

“What’s the matter?” Deacon asked, his voice soft.

“Nothing.” When Deacon’s gaze turned hard, Kade scrambled to explain. He didn’t want Deacon unhappy, and he knew he would be okay once things started—he had faith in Deacon to make certain things went well. “I’m just nervous, Sir. I don’t know what your friend will expect. You know what I can and cannot do and are patient with me. I don’t want to make you look bad or disappoint any of you.”

Deacon sat beside Kade, then scooped him up, sitting him in his lap. “When Sam suggested this evening’s entertainment, we also discussed limits, limitations, and needs, boy. Actually, it was Jake’s request to have time with you in scene that swayed me. But you need to understand you are mine to protect, guide, and care for, not just play with when I desire. I know you were never more than a night or weekend sub to any of your previous Doms, but you are my lover. I take you, us, very seriously.”

Swallowing hard, Kade snuggled into Deacon’s chest, soaking in the tenderness and care offered even as he struggled with the words Deacon had gifted him. “I’ll learn, Sir. And I’ll make you proud tonight.”

“I have no doubt of that. Now, take a deep breath. Hold it. Release.” Deacon kissed him again, a series of soft brushes, teasing Kade’s lips. His cock tried to harden but couldn’t, thanks to the cage he’d worn since the night before. “It’s almost time for Sam and Jake to arrive, so I need to take you down now. You have the run of the kitchen, as does Jake.”

Kade glanced up and instantly Deacon’s full, parted lips met his. Deacon dipped his tongue into Kade’s mouth, moans passed back and forth between them as the sweet warmth of Deacon enveloped him, and the taste of his lover filled him again. He pulled reluctantly away, head swimming from the lust pounding through him, making it hard to think, and murmured, “We will do our best, I promise.”

ATER
THAT
evening, Jake danced around the kitchen as they finished their dinner preparations. Things had gone well so far, and Kade was enjoying his time with Jake. Deacon and Sam were in Deacon’s study, though they had disappeared upstairs for a bit shortly after Sam and Jake arrived. Kade’s nerves distracted him more than a few times, but Jake being Jake helped him relax and have some fun, though he did seem more excitable and sensual than Kade remembered Jake being.

Kade looked up when Jake put a hand on his shoulder. “What’s up?”

“Things are as ready as we can make them. We have about fifteen minutes before the rest of the items come out of the oven. So….”

“So? I’m not following, Jake.” He hated feeling like he’d missed part of a conversation, but he had thought that in this case, he really had missed it.

Jake leaned down and pressed a soft kiss to Kade’s lips, then stepped back. “So, there is something I’m supposed to help you with for before dinner. I think we have enough time and really, I didn’t think it wise to do too early.”

Kade swallowed, flustered. “What are you s-supposed to help me with?”

Jake grinned and motioned Kade to follow. “Let me grab my bag, and then we need someplace for you to lie down for a minute.” He headed back out to the front room, where he grabbed a backpack from where he and Sam had placed their things when they’d arrived earlier. “Got it.”

Deacon’s house had a small library on the first floor, and it had a cushioned window seat similar to the one up in Deacon’s bedroom. After closing the curtains in the room, Kade found himself sitting on the plush bench in front of the window. Jake sat next to him, digging in his bag. “Deacon wants to add a little extra
umph
to your need tonight. He asked me to pick this up yesterday for you.”

When Kade looked at what Jake held, he gasped. There in Jake’s hand were two small packages. It was the larger one that had all his attention. “A plug? You bought me a butt plug?”

“Well, more like I’m delivering it. Deacon told me what to get and paid for it.” Jake shrugged. “Now, I washed it thoroughly already, so there’s no need to worry about it being out of the new packaging.” He handed it to Kade. “He said you hadn’t been using one with him, so I got a smaller one, and with the curved, handle-like bar, it should be comfortable and easy for you to manage even without my help.”

Kade took it to look over. It was a simple egg-style with a curved base, just like Jake said. He met Jake’s gaze and swallowed hard. God, he hadn’t used one in so long. He broke out in goose bumps as he thought back to how much he’d loved playing with such things. “How are you to help me with this?”

A wicked smile flashed across Jake’s enchanting face. “Why, I get to prepare you and put it in place before we get dressed for dinner, of course. Are you good with me touching you like that without Deacon present?”

It had been Deacon’s idea, so it wasn’t really without him. Right? And he and Jake had helped one another get ready for Doms years ago. “I, um, no, that’s okay. Just, be careful, please.”

“Have I ever hurt you before?” Jake rolled his eyes at Kade as he helped him strip and lie down. “Oh, nice cage.”

“It’s the one we bought back when I played at Fierce.” Had he really had it that long? Yeah, Jake and he had gone shopping at the huge adult store one Saturday, maybe three months before the attack. It had taken forever, or so it seemed at the time, to find the perfect one. “Deacon seems to like it, or at least likes me in it.”

Jade nodded. “Yeah, Sam loves mine. He bought it for me right after I officially became his.” As they talked, Jake moved Kade’s legs so he could access Kade’s hole. He produced a new bottle of lube and slicked his fingers before gently touching the skin near Kade’s opening. “I won’t go any farther until you’re ready.”

Kade nodded, a little tense but already excited. Jake petted him, teasing the sensitive flesh, and as Kade relaxed, Jake began to prep him, stretching him while adding more lube than Kade thought was really necessary. Jake shrugged. “Better too much than too little, right? Now, stay loose and open like that for me, hon.” Jake withdrew his fingers, making Kade want to whine at the loss. Jake was very good and didn’t spend a lot of time trying to stimulate him, but still, Kade loved the feeling of being stretched and filled.

Kade felt the tip of the plug push in, stretching him more than Jake’s fingers had. A moan slipped out as Jake continued to slowly slide it inside him. Kade’s cock tried valiantly to get hard, but trapped as it was, did little more than strain against the metal.

“Beautiful,” Jake murmured as he finished settling it in Kade, the bulb pressing against his prostate. Jake tapped it a few times, the shift and vibration pulling more sounds from Kade. “Your master is going to love how crazy this makes you, Kade.”

Closing his eyes and taking a slow breath, Kade focused on how pleased this would make Deacon, and that made him crazier than the plug did. “What else?” he croaked.

“We’re both to wear nothing but these cute little mesh booty shorts. They’ll show off your assets and all. The cages can barely be seen through the mesh. Yours are the light blue pair, mine the dark blue.”

“Wait,” Kade countered. “Don’t you have to have a plug too?” If they were going for the twin torments, it only seemed right Jake would be plugged like Kade.

The laugh Jake let out was light and happy. “I already have mine in.” Oh,
that
would explain Jake’s little noises and excitability as they’d cooked earlier. “Now, come on, be good and let’s get dressed. I need to wash up so we can go back to the kitchen and serve.”

It wasn’t hard to slip the shorts on; they were made of some kind of stretchy mesh and fit like tight boxer briefs. Once he was back in his chair and rearranged for comfort and to best display himself, Kade looked Jake up and down. “God, those are hot on you.”

“They look pretty damn sexy on you too. Now, come on. We need to feed our Sirs so they can get to the fun part of the night.” Jake shivered as his eyes glazed over. “I can’t wait to see and feel what they decide to do to us.”

Kade groaned again, his mind running through image after image of things he’d seen or done before. Each one made him more eager to please Deacon and more open to the fact Sam would be there too. He nodded and grinned. “Then we’d better hurry and serve our Doms; they’ll need the energy to play!”

Jake bent and kissed Kade, a little more pressure and intent in it than before. Neither man took the kiss further, being they hadn’t been given permission, but he could feel how eager Jake was for the night to move forward as well. That knowledge helped ground Kade. Knowing Deacon and Jake both wanted this…. Yeah, he could do this.

B
EING
CARRIED
upstairs to the playroom was nothing new for Kade, but having Sam and Jake walking beside them was. When they reached the top, Deacon set Kade down in his chair, then rested one large hand on his shoulder as Sam and Jake joined them.

Sam faced Kade, his open, easy smile gone. In its place was the same stern, controlled mask Deacon wore when they played. The two Doms stood side by side, arms folded across their chests as they looked Jake and Kade over.

“Jake is Sam’s pet, just as you are my boy,” Deacon began, his voice deeper, as it always was when they did any form of scene. “Inside, though, you both are to answer to whichever Dom addresses you. You are to service any wish either of us has. I will not penetrate Jake anally, nor will Sam take Kade that way; otherwise, give and receive pleasure to who requests it.”

“Before we go in,” Sam added, squatting beside Kade, “I want to hear both of you consent to this evening. I will never take what is not freely given from anyone, no matter if the submissive’s Dom has given permission or not.”

Kade looked at Jake, encouraged by the need and happiness he saw in Jake’s eyes. “Thank you for asking for this, Sir. Yes, please.” He looked at Deacon, though only going as far as his chest. “And thank you for saying yes.”

“I wish this as well, Sirs. Thank you,” Jake added as Sam pushed to his feet.

“One more thing and then we will begin. I need to hear your safe words, Jake,” Deacon said, his eyes focused on Jake.

“And I’ll do nothing until I hear Kade’s,” Sam added.

Kade swallowed before he answered. “Cinnamon and lemon.”

“Mine are orange and red,” Jake added.

“Good. Go inside and strip.” Deacon motioned toward the door that just looking at caused Kade’s heart to race and palms to sweat. “Kade can show where to place your clothes, Jake. When done, both of you get into your presentation positions.”
