Giles and Xan

Giles took his seat for the auction, smiling at the couple sitting at the table with him.

He didn't need to buy Xan to get time with the man this year, but it was a tradition and it would be a shame to miss out on it just because they were actually together now.

He watched as men appeared on stage, time and services auctioned off for thousands of dollars. As he waited, he could feel anticipation building inside him. By the time it was Xan's turn, it felt almost as if he hadn't seen the man since the last time he'd bought Xan at last year's Christmas auction.

Long and lean, pale and marked -- his sub was beautiful. Fierce.

His.

Giles felt his prick respond to the site, and he sat a little straighter in his chair. He'd seen that body in pleasure, in pain, in passion. Every inch of it. He'd seen Xan fully focused on him, on the art, on nothing at all. He licked his lips, waiting for the auctioneer to begin the bidding on his boy.

"The offer is six hours, no holds barred."

The words themselves sent a thrill down his spine. He had plans for those six hours. Wicked, wonderful, delicious plans.

He grabbed his paddle. Xan was his.

Giles and Xan were introduced in Christmas Auction, followed up by New: The Two of Swords.
