“Coffee.”
“You didn’t know what I was going to say,” Sloane laughed.

“Coffee.”

Sloane and Dex produced a candy bar from their front breast pockets in unison, answering simultaneously, “Lunchroom.”

“~~~

Wherever his team went, Dex seemed to pick up a fan following. Something about the guy fascinated Humans and Therians alike. Sloane was still trying to work out what it was. Especially since the guy was...well, kinda weird. Then again, crazy had a way of attracting crazy.”

“There was a sudden loud commotion outside, and Calvin’s eyes widened. “Oh hell. It’s them.”
“Who?” Sounded like a damn war had broken out. Dex was sure he heard a chair clattering somewhere. He edged away from the door.
“Rafe and Seb...Hobbs’s big brothers.”
Dex arched an eyebrow at him. “Like, big as in older, right?”

“Dex came back, handed Sloane a beer, and took a seat next to him. "So what's going on? I take it Ash's pleasantness stems from something besides life in general."

“Okay.” Dex walked two doors down to Hobbs’s room, smiling at Calvin talking to his partner who was sitting up, looking endearingly puzzled. A second later, Dex had an idea as to why Hobbs looked so confused. Calvin gently took hold of his best friend’s face and kissed him. Not an “I’m so happy you’re awake” kiss, or a drunken best friend kiss, but an “I want to know what your tonsils taste like” kiss. Holy shit! The large Therian had been stunned at first, but now he was eagerly returning Calvin’s kiss, his fingers gripping his partner’s arms. All Dex could do was stand there like an idiot. He needed to turn around, pretend he hadn’t seen a thing, and run. Run, Dex, run! “What”

“Cop on cop? Not cool.” A wicked smile spread across Dex’s lips, and he wriggled his eyebrows. “You’re thinking about porn aren’t you?” Sloane cast him an accusing glare and Dex laughed. “Aren’t you?” “No.”

― Charlie Cochet, Blood & Thunder

“For a moment, he’d actually thought everything might go back to normal. Idiot. He might be a shitty liar, but he’d perfected the art of playing dumb. Sloane was getting scared. The reprimand, the fight, the fear at the mere mention of the word “boyfriend.” Although Dex believed Sloane when he said there was more between them than sex, that didn’t mean Sloane was ready to turn that something more into a relationship, and part of him wondered if the guy ever would be. Securing”
― Charlie Cochet, Blood & Thunder

“He kept telling himself he wasn’t ready to label whatever he had with Dex, especially since it was strictly between them, so what was the point, but what else was Dex if not his boyfriend? They weren’t sleeping around. Hell, the thought of Dex being fucked by someone else made him want to punch something. Dex”
― Charlie Cochet, Blood & Thunder

“The last few months, there’d been some tension between them, and now Dex understood why. The two had been best buds since they were kids, but clearly, those feelings had grown into something more for at least one of them. Thinking back to their behavior around each other, if Dex were to hazard a guess, he would say Calvin had been the one to fall first. Sounded familiar. The”
― Charlie Cochet, Blood & Thunder

― Charlie Cochet, Blood & Thunder

― Charlie Cochet, Blood & Thunder

“Can you believe Howell was using my shampoo? Dude doesn’t even have any….” Dex’s voice had Sloane moving away from Taylor. His partner looked from Sloane to Taylor and back. “Hair. Everything okay?” Taylor grinned widely, his intense gaze on Sloane. “Everything’s copacetic, Agent Daley. See you on the field.” “Sure.” Dex watched Taylor stroll off whistling to himself, before he turned to Sloane. “What was that about?” “Just straightening something out. You gonna get dressed, or you plan on hanging out in your undies all day?” Dex pulled his uniform out of his locker and gave him a wink. “Don’t want other dudes checking out my sweet ass?” Despite”
