Circe's Recruits 2: Zack and Ace Read Online Free Page A

endure Caitlyn’s probing hands. And let me tell you, she’s hot as hell when changed, but she’s nobody’s wet dream of a doctor.” Zack winced. “She fucking poked me when I was down.
    Evil woman.”
    Ace chuckled. “Baby.”
    “Whatever. When I went back to check on you again, I scented something the others didn’t.” Zack gave him a strange look.
    “What? Spit it out already.”
    “Well, when I neared you, I smelled Kelly. Like you were covered in her scent. And I smelled cum,” Zack said bluntly. “Did you jack off or something? I thought you were unconscious, but now I’m wondering.”
    “No shit.” His dream surfaced. “I had the best dream. Kelly was touching me, stroking me. I came hard. But you were there too.” Ace glared at him. “You sure you weren’t in there while she was doing that to me?”
    “We don’t know that she was doing anything to you. When I entered, Caitlyn was there talking to her. You were laid out flat and passed out. Maybe it was a dream.”
    “Or maybe I came in my sleep. Who the hell knows?”
    “There was something else. Kelly smelled wild. Like a Circ. She looked completely normal, and no one else seemed to notice. But when I gazed into her eyes, I swear I could feel a Circ looking back at me.”
    “Wishful thinking?”
    “I don’t know. She bolted, literally ran out the door. I haven’t seen her since.”
    “What time is it?”
    “Around four.” Zack stretched and groaned, rubbing his side. “Damn. Don’t tell Hale this, but I think I will take it easy. Problem is, I’ve got a kink in my back. I can’t get to it, and it’s bugging the crap out of me.”
    “Come here.” Ace owed Zack more than he could ever repay. Zack had saved him from rape at that rogue’s hands.

    Zack approached, a question in his eyes. Their silvery shine sparkled in the darkness, like neon lights flaring with heat.
    “Lie down.” Ace moved over so Zack could access the bed.
    “You okay?” Zack didn’t move. “You never want me anywhere near you.” Though Zack spoke quietly, with little inflection, Ace knew his distance bothered the man. He also knew that Zack had never spoken of it aloud. If Ace gave him the slightest hint, Zack would be all over him. It had taken Ace a while to figure it out, but Zack wasn’t straight, nor was he gay. The man was bisexual with a capital B. He’d had his fair share of women. The entire squad knew that. But they had no idea Zack liked to fuck men as well.
    Not as a beast, but as a man.
    Ace had caught him once back when they were in the service together. He’d thought Zack and the guy were pals until they’d kissed. Sincerely freaked, he’d never been quite as close to Zack since. And Zack knew it.
    “Do you want that kink eased or not?” Ace snapped.
    Zack studied him for a minute before slowly lying down. He propped his head on his forearms while his feet dangled over the sides.
    “No, idiot. Lay on the bed long ways. Haven’t you ever had a massage before?”
    “Not by you,” Zack snapped back. “Look, we both know you don’t want to touch me.
    You’re just feeling weird because I saved your ass.” Zack shook his head and started to rise.
    “It’s no biggie, Ace. You’d have done the same for me. You don’t owe me anything.” Ace’s nerves stretched thin. What Zack said was true, to an extent. He did owe Zack.
    Not only for this past rescue, but for so much more. Zack always had his back. He’d never once come on to Ace or made him feel less than a true friend. Though Ace always took out his aggression on Zack, he did it because he knew Zack would take it. When changed and the mating heat hit, they inevitably fucked. Their nature as beasts looked for compatibility.
    Only a Circ would do. Despite finding Caitlyn a few months ago, Ace’s beast still looked to Zack for completion, which made him wonder what his relationship with Zack really boiled down to. Instinctively, he thought of Zack as his.
    Zack stood, and
