Friday
Alex spent the night tossing and turning, his anxiety making him unable to stay asleep for long. He had spent so long preparing for this retreat, interviewing closeted gay men who had been on Voyage Into Manhood in an effort to find Ezekiel's weak spot and expose it. His editor had been willing to put forth the cost of the retreat, but Alex knew that he needed to have something to deliver by the end of it.
But it was more than just his professional career on the line. Now that he had finally met Ezekiel and seen his ruthlessness and malice up close, he needed to stop him no matter what. That exercise the day before had shown Alex firsthand just how harmful Ezekiel could be. He couldn't bear to think about all of the other men who would suffer under Voyage Into Manhood if he didn't succeed.
Alex lay in bed in the early hours of the morning, having given up on falling back asleep. Jacob lay sleeping next to him. He looked up, his eyes tracing the little bumps along the popcorn ceiling.
"Well, I'm here, God," he thought. "I think we both know I don't really know what I'm doing. I need your help. I know we didn't always have the best relationship, but I think... well, I think you're on my side. At least I hope you are. Please, just help me finish this."
He looked over at Jacob, who lay sleeping on his side as he breathed softly. He reached out and touched Jacob's back, running his fingers down his smooth skin. Jacob breathed in, stretching his back as Alex scooted closer to him.
Alex put his hands around Jacob's waist as he pulled their bodies together. He kissed Jacob's neck as Jacob reached back with his hand and began running his fingers through Alex's hair. Alex was growing hard against Jacob's ass. He rubbed his stiffening cock against Jacob as he continued to kiss and suck his neck.
Suddenly, without turning around, Jacob reached down and grabbed Alex's cock with his hand. Alex moaned as Jacob guided Alex's cock to his hole and lifted his cheek to let Alex in.
Alex pushed forward, his cock gently opening Jacob's hole. He bit down lightly on Jacob's neck, his fingers tensely gripping Jacob's arm as Jacob took more and more of him into his channel.
Jacob kept his head buried in the pillow as he reached back and grabbed Alex's ass, pulling him deeper inside of him. Finally Alex bottomed out inside of Jacob, his lips still kissing up and down Jacob's neck.
Jacob turned his head slightly away from the pillow, freeing his mouth.
"Fuck me," he whispered.
Alex wrapped his arms around Jacob's neck and pulled his cock out, then thrust it quickly back in with a groan. Jacob grabbed onto Jacob's arms and held them with his hands, moaning into the pillow as Alex pumped his cock in and out, in and out.
Alex knew they were being risky--hell, every time they had sex in this place they were taking a risk. If any of the other brothers were to walk in, they would be instantly found out and his chance at catching Ezekiel would be gone. But he knew that, as strong as his motivation was to expose Ezekiel, his attraction to Jacob was stronger.
He didn't know what made him so powerless over this married man. Jacob ticked all the wrong boxes: closeted, self-hating, married. Alex had promised himself years ago that he wouldn't fall for another guy in the closet. It was just too painful.
Yet here he was, his dick sawing away inside a man that he'd fallen for harder and faster than he'd ever fallen before. As he continued to thrust in and out of Jacob's hole, the only thing his brain could comprehend was the love and attraction he felt for this beautiful man.
Alex loved every part of Jacob: his smooth skin, his taut biceps, his tidy haircut and nervous little smile. He even loved how hopelessly religious Jacob was. Although it pained him to see how much it held Jacob back, Jacob's earnestness and sincerity were irresistible. He wrapped both his arms around Jacob and held him close as he felt himself nearing his orgasm.
Jacob grabbed his hands and held him tight as Alex began to cum inside him. Alex bit Jacob's neck again to stifle his groans, their sweaty bodies wrapped together as Alex squirted shot after shot of his cum deep inside his lover.
Alex resumed kissing Jacob's neck as he came down from his orgasm. He reached around and took Jacob's hard cock into his hand and started stroking it. Jacob began to groan as Alex pumped his fist up and down his cock.
Alex pulled out of Jacob and leaned over, taking Jacob's cock into his mouth. He bobbed up and down on Jacob's dick, enjoying the feeling of Jacob's fingers running through his hair as Jacob moaned.
After a minute of devouring Jacob's cock, Jacob's moans began to get higher and higher as he neared orgasm. Alex reached up and stuffed his fingers in Jacob's mouth, quieting his moans as Jacob began to ejaculate inside of Alex's mouth. Alex continued to fellate him, swallowing his cum as he shoved his fingers in and out of Jacob's mouth.
Finally Jacob fell limp, his body drained of semen and energy. Alex laid back on the pillow next to him, running his fingertips lightly across Jacob's chest. Jacob lay with his eyes closed, breathing deeply as he recovered from his orgasm. Alex stared at his soft face, watching him breathe in and out.
"Where did you come from?" Alex asked. "You always surprise me."
Jacob looked over at him. "Makes sense," he said. "I can't exactly be predictable if I have no idea what I'm doing."
Alex laughed. "You're not the only one."
He leaned over and kissed Jacob on the lips. Jacob slowly opened his lips to accept Alex's tongue, then put his hand out and held Alex's face as the two men shared a sensual post-coital kiss.
Jacob pulled away. He reached over and grabbed Alex's glasses from the dresser and handed them to him.
"Do you have a plan?" he asked.
"I spent all night trying to think of something," said Alex. He got out of the bed and started to dress. "Since we already tried looking on his computer, the best I could come up with is to try and catch him in case he fucks Brad again. But now that he knows who I am, I doubt he'll let his guard down."
"I think I might have an idea," Jacob said. He sat up in bed, clutching the covers against his chest. "Promise you'll at least consider it."
Alex looked at him, raising his eyebrow.
"I got the idea from Brad, actually," he continued. "What if I tried to seduce Ezekiel?"
"Fuck no," Alex said angrily. "There's no way I'm gonna let you have sex with that monster."
"I wouldn't let it get that far," said Jacob. "I would just try and get him to say something incriminating while I recorded it on my phone. Once I had it, I would book it out of there."
"It's too dangerous. What if he figures you out? Or what if, God help me, he forces himself on you when you try to leave? I won't put you in danger."
"It's our only choice. Like you said, if we don't get him now, we won't get him until next year. And there's no way he's letting you into this retreat again, so it'll be just me then anyway," said Jacob.
Alex bit his lip. He thought for a moment. "What if I tried it instead?" he asked.
"He would see right through you. Plus..." Jacob looked away, blushing. "I think he has a thing for me."
"What?" Alex asked.
"I mean, I don't know for sure," said Jacob as he got out of bed. "But it's this feeling I get. When I'm around him, it's like... like he wants to devour me. At first I thought he just thought I was pathetic and weak, but now... I know it's more than that. He wants me, I'm sure of it."
"Well, of course. Everyone wants you, babe," Alex said, pulling the still-naked Jacob into him.
Jacob pushed him away playfully. "Stop it. I'm serious."
Alex held him and kissed him. Jacob felt light in his arms, standing there with his hands on Alex's chest.
"I'm just worried about you," Alex said after he broke off the kiss.
"I know," Jacob said quietly. "But I have to do this. I have to face him."
Alex nodded. "What do you need me to do?"
