King of Hearts
A Beau to Beau Romance
EXCERPT:
Marc had almost finished his drink when he felt Todd’s hand on his shoulder.
“It’s beautiful, isn’t it?” Marc turned his head slightly. “Yeah. Guess I
never expected this much beauty here in Lincoln.” Todd wrapped his arm around
his friend’s chest. “Did you expect to see me again?” Marc ran his hand along
his friend’s arm. “No, I did not expect this,” he admitted, being somewhat
evasive in his response.
Marc stood and waited, not knowing what he was waiting
for. Marc soon felt his friend’s other arm around his waist. Todd lightly
brushed his lips against the back of Marc’s neck. Marc held onto Todd’s arm,
the memories of their shared past flooding his mind. Todd brushed his lips
along the side of Marc’s neck, coming closer and closer to Marc’s lips, the lips
that Marc could never resist. Todd gently pulled Marc’s earlobe into his mouth
and held it between his lips. Then he placed his mouth over Marc’s ear and
whispered, “Better get you home now.”
Marc turned instantly and
pulled Todd around to where he had been standing. Marc kissed those lips that
had been the first ever to have kissed his own. The wine drink made the taste
of those lips even better than Marc had remembered.
Todd tried to resist Marc,
but he could not. In an instant, the old feelings came flooding back to him,
too. He forced himself to pull away and to turn his back to Marc. “Todd?” “I
can’t do this, Marc. I will not let myself get pulled into a fantasy.” Marc
now stood behind his first love. “Maybe this is not a fantasy.”
