Chapter 7
Theo felt like he was on top of the world. Liam had been coming over almost every day, staying until late in the evening, kissing Theo breathless, making his toes curl up. Liam was a pro, he knew that, but he didn’t know that it would be that good.
It was Friday afternoon, Theo having to leave for work soon. Liam was going out with Mason and Corey, and Brett by default, for a dinner. It was apparently a monthly thing, all of them going out.
“Are you sure you can’t stay with me?” Theo asked, hands moving down Liam’s back to his ass.
Liam smiled, running his hands down Theo’s chest, tracing the tattoos on his chest.
“I wish I could, but I want to go and see them for a bit. Don’t worry, I’ll send you texts.” Liam kissed him softly, Theo kissing him back, bringing him closer.
They spent the rest of their time like that, kissing one another, exploring their bodies. Theo had discovered Liam’s tattoos, one of them being a flower with vines, the vines running down his arm, wrapping itself around his wrist. He spent time kissing every inch of that piece of skin, admiring Liam.
Liam pulled away gently, getting up from Theo’s lap to grab his shoes. Theo watched him, reeling him in by his belt loops.
“Do we have time before you have to go?” He asked, and Liam smiled, nodding his head.
Theo smile as well, getting on his knees, pulling Liam’s pants down, watching the way it moved down his ass. That was his second favorite thing. Liam’s ass. It was literally a godsend. He moved behind Liam, spreading him open, all for him.
“God I could eat you out all day…” Theo said, and dove in.
Theo was an expert at what he was doing, knowing how to pull the right noises from Liam. Liam came after about ten minutes, grabbing onto the mattress to help not fall over. Theo pulled away, standing up slowly. He wiped his mouth, turning Liam around, and smiled when he saw how wrecked he looked.
“I… I should probably cancel dinner…” Liam said, cheeks red. Theo smiled, kissing him softly.
“You should hang with them, baby. They probably miss you.” Theo said, and Liam shook his head no, wrapping his arms around Theo’s neck.
“I saw them last night, they’ll be fine.” Theo smiled, grabbing Liam under his thighs, hoisting him up.
Liam wrapped his legs around Theo’s waist, arms around his neck. Theo walked them to the bathroom, setting Liam down onto the counter. He looked up at Liam, his eyes coming out, the crimson red popping out, glowing against Liam’s skin. Liam had told him a few nights ago that he really loved Theo’s wolf eyes, loved everything about him.
“What do you think being a beta is like?” Liam mused, and Theo’s attention snapped back to him.
“You’re thinking of becoming a beta?” He asked, and Liam shrugged.
“If it’s yours, then yes. I mean, I guess Derek would be fine too, but that would be kind of weird. But, I think it would be fun being yours.” Liam smiled cutely at him.
Theo could see it now.
It would be perfect.
Theo smiled, wicked sharp, and leaned in, kissing Liam. Liam kissed him back, arching into Theo’s hands.
“We’ll have to talk to my mother about it.” Theo said, and Liam tensed up. “What’s wrong?” He asked, and Liam looked shy.
“What if… I’m not the kind of person you bring home.” Liam said, and Theo rolled his eyes.
“You are.” He insisted, and Liam shook his head no.
“I’m not. No mother wants their son or daughter dating a prostitute.” Liam said, and Theo frowned.
He brought Liam closer to him, holding him close.
“Being a prostitute is not who you are. Yeah, it’s a job, but it doesn’t make your character.” Theo said, and Liam shrugged.
“Anyways, moving on. I am meeting your mother. Is she strict? Do I need to wear anything special?” Liam asked, and Theo smiled.
“Just bring yourself. She’ll love you.” It then hit Theo.
He hadn’t told Liam what he did for his job. He never told Liam he was in the mob.
He swallowed, and smiled again.
“Let’s shower, okay?” He said.
He’d tell Liam eventually.
-----------------------------------------------------
Theo woke up at the time of sunrise, the lighting hitting into his room just right. His brain needed a moment to catch up, but the memories of last night came flooding in.
Him fucking Liam…
Liam giving him one of the best blowjobs…
Theo rimming Liam once again…
God, it had been such a good night.
He smiled a little, getting out of bed, stretching his arms. He got up, making his way to the bathroom. He did his business, washing his hands then brushing his teeth.
He walked downstairs, seeing that there was a note left on his counter, signed with “Liam”. He smiled, grabbing it and reading it. Liam was so sweet, telling him how much he had fun, and how much he wanted to do it again. Theo smiled big, stashing the note away in his drawer.
He took a deep breath.
He needed to come clean with Liam today.
----------------------------------------------------------
Theo texted Liam, but had received no response, and he frowned a little. He must be busy then. He went to the gym, and found Brett there, and Brett had a hard gaze directed towards him. He raised an eyebrow, ready to challenge the other Alpha. Brett made his way towards him, and Theo squared his shoulders, raising both eyebrows.
“Can I help you, Talbot?” He asked.
He had done his own research on Brett, and he did not like him. He was douchey, and was a rich asshole.
“Yeah. I know what you do, you piece of shit. You’re in the fucking mob, and you haven’t even told Liam. That’s a shitty move on your part.” Brett said, and Theo nodded.
“I’m telling him later today.” Theo said. Brett laughed a little.
“Listen, Raeken. He is not going to trust you, he’s going to be scared.” Theo rolled his eyes.
Liam knew of werewolves, why would he be scared of Theo now?
“Listen, is that all? I’d like to get back to my workout.” He said, and Brett just walked away, pulling his phone out.
Theo listened in, hearing Liam on the other end. He swallowed. They were going to do this here? He wanted to do it on his own time, or maybe even at home.
He focused on the weights, pumping and pushing the bar. He almost dropped it when Liam’s scent hit him full force. He put the bar bac on the stand, sitting up quickly, spotting Liam going to Brett. Liam looked wrecked, and not in a good way. Brett gathered Liam close, holding him tightly against his body.
Theo and Brett made eye contact, Brett smirking, eyes flashing. Theo flashed his back, growling. He made his way over to the two, stopping just behind Liam. He cleared his throat and Liam turned around, eye black and bruised, shaking.
Theo quickly went into protective lover mode, taking him away from the crowd and sitting him down.
Liam cried against him, hiding himself in Theo.
“They… they took Lily. Mom and Dad. I tried to fight for her but D.. Dad pushed me down and… and I couldn’t get to her…” He stuttered out, grabbing onto Theo for support.
“I’m so sorry, baby. I wish I could help… I’m so sorry.” He held Liam close, letting Liam bury his face in Theo’s chest.
He was gonna have to postpone his own announcement.
-----------------------------------------------------
He held Liam, texting his mother and Derek’s mother, telling them about what happened with Liam’s family.
Talia said she would look into it, take care of it. Derek also replied, saying he would help. Theo brought up telling Liam and Stiles what they did for a living, and Derek agreed. They’d get together tonight.
He moved himself and Liam to his car after grabbing all of their stuff. Theo flipped Brett off behind Liam’s back, Brett growling slightly.
He was gonna have to fight another alpha for Liam’s attention.
Great.
-----------------------------------------------------
Night time had rolled around, and Theo took himself and Liam to a restaurant, meeting Derek and Stiles. Liam grabbed Theo’s hand when the two arrived, Stiles looking a little worried.
“So, what’s this all about?” Stiles asked after they all had sat down.
“Yeah, is everything okay?” Liam asked, and Theo and Derek made eye contact.
“Well… we have some stuff we need to tell you two. About our jobs.” Derek said, and Stiles looked confused.
“You work at the club, Der… So does Theo.” Liam looked between everyone.
“We do, but we have another side job.” Theo said, and Stiles whipped his head around.
“Are Liam and I in danger?” Stiles asked, edging closer to the edge of the seat of the booth.
“Potentially.”
And that’s all it took for Stiles to grab Liam, and for them to walk out of the restaurant.
Derek and Theo followed them out, watching as Stiles put himself in front of Liam, almost protecting him.
“What do you do.” Stiles said, and Derek fidgeted.
“We, uh are in the mob…” Derek said, and Theo watched their reactions.
“Liam, get in the car. You’re staying with me tonight.” Stiles said, and he took one last look at Derek and Theo.
“Sti, baby…” Derek said, moving to get closer, but Stiles moved back.
“I really need time to think about this. Please do not contact me for a few days. Same goes for Liam, Theo. He’s gonna need some time.” Stiles said, and both men nodded, watching as the two got into the one car, driving off.
Theo looked over at Derek, nerves acting up.
That didn’t go so well.
