A TRIAL OF STRENGTH – PART 518 By Rob Williams
Chapter 518 –"TAMING THE MACHO MECHANI"
IN THIS CHAPTER:
The freckle faced young chef Will is in love with his stepdad, the wildman construction boss Seth. But Seth has angered Pablo, the hot young mechanic on the construction site, who has a meltdown at Will's dinner party and grossly insults Seth. Pablo's lover, the black musclehunk Darius, steps in. "You sick fuck" he yells and subjects the naked, bound mechanic to a savage punishment. ___________________________________________________________________
<><> IN THE PREVIOUS CHAPTER <><>
The tribe's young assistant chef Will was spending a few days with his dad Seth, the macho, hunk who was now one of the bosses on the company's construction site. The history of Will and Seth had been a rocky one, but over time they had built a close, loving relationship,
Seth lived alone in a house adjacent to the Tribe's compound and Will intended to take care of him – clean his house, cook his meals and even satisfy his sexual needs, something he had done many times in the past. But at the start of the evening Seth dropped a bombshell. He had been hiding a secret – that Will was not his biological son.
Seth explained that when he first met his wife she was already pregnant with Will. After a few years she walked out on them and Seth decided to care for Will himself. "It wasn't easy being a single dad, but everything went OK until you got to be a teenager, a really nice-looking young guy. And when I came home from work all horny, there you were, all handsome and sexy. "And here comes the weird part. I wanted to believe you were my boy, my own flesh and blood. I wanted to own you in some way, to prove we were biologically connected. And the worst thing was – I was sexually attracted to you. The kid I had loved and raised as my son, was now a young man I lusted for sexually! And I came totally unglued"
Seth had forcibly tried to fuck Will but the boy had resisted and eventually ran away from home. But over time, the Tribe brought them back together and they buried the past. They grew to love each other, which is why Will was now so excited to have the next three days alone with Seth.
Everything went well and they spent the first of their three nights together weaving sexual fantasies that the construction worker and the sexy young redhead played out together. The next day Will came up with an idea. "I thought maybe we could entertain a bit ... you know, a casual dinner party for the guys upstairs – Darius, Pablo and the boys – Finn, Tyler and Ryan"
So it was set. After Seth went to work, Will went across the garden to get supplies from the tribe's kitchen, where he found the twins, Kyle and Kevin. Will was the twins' boy and told them everything, so now, of course, he told them about Seth's revelation. They took it all in stride – their main concern was ensuring that Will himself was OK with this turn of events.
Will said,"It took some getting used to at first, it was a shock. But you know me, I started to work it out logically and I remembered all the things you and Bob have taught me – like love is the only thing that really counts, and all the rest is small potatoes" "You're right, Will. The important thing is that you and Seth love each other, end of story"
Kyle's phone rang – it was their buddy Darius, the handsome young black foreman of the construction site. "Hey Darius, it's Kyle. I'm here with Kevin and Will and I've put you on speaker. What's up, dude?'' "Hey, guys" came Darius's cheerful voice. "I was really looking for Will and thought he might be with you. Will, I wanna thank you for inviting Pablo and me and the boys to dinner. It'll be great to get some of that gourmet chow you're famous for. You sure you can cope with us all" "Sure I can. I've cooked for more than seven before" "Great. I'll have my boy Ryan give you a hand, he'd love that" He paused. "Er, there's a heads-up I wanna give you – you know, forewarned is forearmed. Thing is, you know Pablo and his moods. Well, he's in another one here at work. Something went wrong with a truck, the supplier fucked up, some of the crew fucked up and he's having a cow. He may be a great head mechanic but he sure has a lot to learn about maturity and keeping his cool. "But I promise you, Will, there's no way I'm gonna let my crazy lover spoil your party. I'm only telling you `cos we might be a tad late and, er, if you sense any kind of tension it'll have nothing to do with you. It'll be because I've dealt with Pablo in my own special way. Everything's gonna be hunky-dory, kid and, er, are we having rhubarb pie" "If that's what you want Darius, you got it. And I appreciate the heads-up, dude. I won't let it faze me" "Oops. Gotta go, guys. The shits hitting another fan, now. But Seth's handling it fine, or I should say manhandling it. Much like he does you kiddo. See you at dinner, can't wait"
The line went dead and Kyle grinned. "Don't you just love Darius? What a guy. He and Pablo are lovers from way back, he knows how to deal with him. But you know how Pablo can be – boasting about being the boss's boy, Randy's adopted son, and the firm's chief mechanic." "Oh I'm not worried about Pablo, sirs. He's a really great guy at heart. I'll never forget how when I ran away from Seth he wouldn't let me take my dog Norman with me. I missed him a lot, and when Pablo heard about it he went right over to Seth's house and somehow rescued Norman and brought him home to me. I'll never forget that, it meant everything to me" "You're right, Will" Kevin said. "And if anyone can tame the raging Pablo Darius can. Just you wait and see. Your party's gonna be a big success"
========= CHAPTER 518 =========
<><> THE BOYS GOSSIP <><>
After hanging out with the twins over coffee for a while, Will left their kitchen pushing a food cart loaded with dishes, glasses and utensils to supplement Seth's meager supply, as it would be seven for dinner at Seth's house.
He crossed the lawn and went through the gate to Seth's house next door. He was unloading the cart in Seth's kitchen when his phone rang. It was young Ben, the kid brother of boss Randy, with the same dark gypsy look as Randy. He was also the boy of the sexy fireman Jason, and Pablo's assistant mechanic at the construction site. "Hey, Ben, what's up" "Hey, dude. I was just wondering if you need any help. I heard that you and Seth are giving a dinner party and as I'm kinda at a loose end I could help you in the kitchen" "What do you mean, you're at a loose end? Shouldn't you be at work" "Oh, Pablo sent me home early. He's having one of his meltdowns `cos a whole bunch of stuff went wrong. He's ranting and raving and told me I was just in his way and he'd be better off without me"
Will could hear the hurt in Ben's voice and said,"What about Jason. Ain't he there with you" "Oh no, he went up to Ventura on one of those firemen's training exercises they do. He won't be back till tomorrow, so I'm all on my own" "Dude, we can't have that. Of course you've gotta come here. You sure can help me `cos there's a lot to do. Then you're gonna stay for dinner and spend the night here. You can't be rattling round that house down there all on your own" "Really, dude? Can I" Ben's voice was suddenly much brighter. "Sure. Actually Darius has asked his boy Ryan to leave the office early to come help out, so there'll be three of us. It'll be fun" "I'll be right over, Will – twenty minutes tops"
True to his word Ben ran in breathlessly fifteen minutes later and joined Will in the kitchen. They hugged warmly, then Will tossed him a dark green apron and a chef's hat, required uniform in any kitchen managed by Will. "I've got the menu here, Ben, and made a list of the jobs in order. So we'll start with preparing the vegetables" Ben followed Will's instructions, accepting the well-known fact that in the kitchen Will was the undisputed boss. And naturally, as they worked they gossiped. The two junior boys felt no reticence in talking about one of the most senior boys. "Actually, Ben, Darius called me and gave me a heads-up about Pablo. Said he was having a cow" "That's putting it mildly, Will. He's had tantrums before but this one's a doozy. I don't get it, though. We've had problems before where suppliers fuck up and a truck's out of action. And work is so slow right now that the loss of one truck ain't such a big deal"
Will said,"Maybe it's because Randy is out of town right now" "You put your finger on it, dude. Whenever Randy's off the site Pablo seems to think he takes the place of the boss as he's the boss's boy. Course, Randy can get away with throwing orders around cos everyone respects him. But with Pablo it just looks like a tantrum. Zack don't take any of his bullshit either, but he's out of town with Randy. "How about Seth" "Well he's in charge right now, of course, and gives his orders to Pablo, but the thing is Pablo resents Seth as he's the new boss, with Randy and Zack gone. He hates the Idea that Randy made Seth senior to him, and resents taking orders from him. That's a big problem" "I hope him and his bad mood don't fuck up our party" Will said warily. "Oh Darius won't let him do that. Him and Pablo have been lovers since near the beginning of the tribe. They still love each other a whole bunch but Darius hates it when Pablo goes off the deep end. You know, I even think Pablo is a bit scared of him cos Darius can be real tough, with that powerful body of his. "Not to mention that ten-inch cock between his legs" Will chuckled. "Yeah, that too" Ben grinned."Pablo loves to get fucked by it but when Darius gets mad his dick becomes a weapon. I wouldn't wanna be on the wrong end of it when Darius goes apeshit"
They were still laughing at that image when Ryan came in. "Hey, dudes, reporting for duty. What's the joke"
Will threw him an apron and hat. "Put these on, Ryan, and we'll tell you. It's about Pablo" "Oh, don't get me started" Ryan said. "He called the office this morning and yelled at me, blamed me for fucking up the parts order on the truck, but it had nothing to do with the office. He almost made me cry but Brandon got on the phone and totally shredded him. I've never heard Brandon get so mad. But he's in charge of the office while Jamie's away with Mark and the guys, and he wasn't about to take any bullshit from Pablo, boss's boy or not"
This kind of gossip was one of the boys' favorite pastimes and before they knew it the dinner prep was well under way. And of course, their pal Eddie was gossip-central and he soon came barging in with wide eyes and open palms and,"Dudes ... you ... will ... not ... believe .."
<><> WILL & SETH CUT TO THE CHASE <><>
It was late afternoon when Seth got home from work – as always in his grubby work clothes and sweaty T-shirt. When he came into the kitchen the three boys turned from their work at the counter but Seth said,"Guys, don't let me interrupt you. I just wanted a hug from my boy"
He pulled Will into his arms while Ben and Ryan watched fascinated. They were always awestruck by big Seth, looking so wild and tough, with his shaggy hair and rugged face. Even thought they were just a little scared of him they both had hard-ons in their shorts.
Seth broke away from Will and smiled at them. "Ryan, Ben, thanks for coming to help Will. I'll let you get on with your work while I go upstairs and shower. Will, if you can spare the time in a few minutes perhaps you could come up and give me hand after my shower"
After he left, the boys grinned at Will."Give him a hand" Ben said."He's gonna fuck you, right" "Nah, not now. He would like to and so would I but he knows there's work to do. I warned him earlier that the guests come first" "You tell Seth stuff like that, dude" said Ryan in surprise" "Oh sure. He depends on me for a lot of social kind of stuff. He's a great construction boss but not too swift on how to entertain" Will put the finishing touches to a sauce and said,"I better go up to him. Be back in a few minutes. Keep stirring those two pans of risotto, dudes.
When Will went into the bedroom Seth was just coming out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped round his waist. He grinned,"Hey, kiddo, you're looking cute as usual in that apron and chef's hat. We got time to fool around before dinner" "Sir, I told you before that, when you entertain, the guests come first. How would it look if when they arrived we were still in bed making love"
Seth flashed a roguish smile."We could invite them up to watch. They'd get off on that" Will shook his head with a frustrated frown, and Seth let the towel drop. "Not even a quick blowjob, kid? My nuts are bursting, I would get off real fast"
The sight of the muscular body, butt naked, the long, rigid shaft, and the pleading blue eyes weakened Will's resolve and he sank to his knees. "But real fast, sir – no foreplay, no teasing, just cut right to the chase, OK" "You got it, kiddo" Seth smiled down his boy, pulled off his chef's hat and ruffled his red hair.
Will went to work with the same efficiency he always showed in the kitchen. He held the rigid cock in one hand, licked the head, then lowered his mouth over it, sliding it all the way down his throat till his face was buried in Seth's wiry pubes. As he said, no teasing, no bringing Seth to the edge of orgasm then backing off. This time it was a straight shot.
Seth looked down at the tousled red hair bobbing down and back on his rod, lips pursed hard for maximum erotic effect. It was so intense that Seth couldn't have held back even if he'd wanted to prolong the experience. "Damn, that's hot, boy. You're gonna make me shoot. Hell, yeah ... fuck ... fuck ... yeaahh" His cock erupted with the pent-up jizz that had been building all day at work, and Will gulped hard, determined not to spill a single drop on his apron.
When the cock had drained he pulled off quickly, stood up and Seth kissed him, sucking his own jizz from his boy's mouth. Then Will was all business. "I gotta brush my teeth, sir. Can't work in the kitchen like this – hygiene first, sir"
As he ran into the bathroom Seth smiled after him and wiped his cock with the towel he had dropped. When Will came back he found his dad pulling clothes out of his closet with a frown of uncertainty. "I know you gotta run back to the kitchen, kiddo, but what should I wear? Something stylish as we got company" "Sir, you always have to think of the guests. Mostly they'll have just got off work so they'll probably change into something casual – especially as it's a casual buffet dinner. Here, this is a classic and looks way hot on you" Will pulled out a black V-neck T-shirt. "Maybe your brown jeans and sneakers, OK? I gotta go – things are coming to a head in the kitchen"
Will jammed his chef's hat back on his head and ran downstairs. Seth put on the clothes Will had suggested and looked in the mirror. "Hmm .." he murmured running his hand over the black shirt and feeling his pecs flex underneath. "The kid was right. Does look kinda hot"
Will had taught Seth yesterday how to get off on himself in the mirror – muscle-worship and jack off – but now was not the time, he thought.
His mind went back over the day on the worksite, especially to the way he had had to put Pablo in his place. The young mechanic had been throwing some kind of temper tantrum and Seth knew how a bad mood like that could infect the rest of the crew. As the boss, he had disciplined him, no matter if he was the boss's boy. It's what Randy would have wanted him to do. He just hoped Pablo would have calmed down before he came to dinner. This was Will's night and he didn't want anything to spoil it.
Downstairs, when Will rushed into the kitchen Ben grinned. "So, it was sex after all, eh dude" "Just a quick blowjob" Will said off-handedly. "Guys, I told you to keep stirring. Risotto will spoil if you let it stand. Here, I'll show you .."
<><> PABLO POUTS <><>
Meanwhile, Seth's hope that Pablo would have calmed down by the time he got home was overly optimistic.
Darius drove him back in his truck and Pablo slumped morosely in his seat mumbling,"Who the fuck's he think he is ordering me about like that. Guys in the fucking office screwed up the ordering of parts and I have to put it right. Then Seth jumps on my case and starts bossing me around, the son of a bitch" "Dude, let it drop will ya" Darius said. "Stuff like that happens every day, you gotta take it in stride. First of all, it wasn't the office guys made a mistake, they had nothing to do with it. You bypassed them and ordered the parts yourself. And second of all, Seth had every right to shut you up. Randy designated him as boss and you were acting like a kid throwing a tantrum, yelling at the suppliers like that. "Randy would a' done the same" "Ah, that's what all this is about, trying to be like Randy – and failing. Sure Randy would a' got mad but the suppliers respect him a whole lot and would never say no to him. You, you're still just a kid, or you behave like one. Now listen to me, dude. When we go to dinner tonight you're gonna behave – try and act like an adult. Will is excited about making dinner for us all and I heard a rumor that him and Seth have some big news. So behave yourself" "Who the fuck do you think you are, man, ordering me around like that" "I'm the guy who loves you, kiddo. We've been lovers since we first met, when there wasn't even a tribe yet"
That took some of the wind out of Pablo's sails so he sat silently pouting all the way home.
<><> FATHER & SON <><>
When Seth came down to the kitchen Ben and Ryan raised their heads from their work and stared at him. They were used to seeing a wildman in shabby work clothes but now their cocks stiffened at the sight of the sexy musclehunk in clean jeans and a black V-neck T-shirt that accentuated the bulge of his pecs, and his biceps straining under the tight short sleeves. His usually disheveled hair was freshly brushed, though his jaw was as heavily stubbled as always. "Hey, guys" Seth smiled,"how's it going? Everything under control" He hugged Will from behind and Will smiled but stayed concentrated on grating cheese over a casserole. "Everything's hunky-dory, sir. These guys have been a big help. There" he said, putting the casserole in the oven. "Right on schedule. Sir, would you help me take these plates and glasses out to the buffet table"
When they were out of earshot of the kitchen Will said,"Sir, Ben called me and asked if he could come and help, so I hope you don't mind, but I asked him to join us for dinner and even stay the night as Jason is away tonight and Ben's all alone" "'Course I don't mind, I like that young gypsy a lot. Would you like him to sleep with us if he wants to"
Will beamed. "I was hoping you'd say that sir. Ben was my first friend in the tribe and I know he's got the hots for you ... actually all the boys do. By the way, sir, that shirt looks way sexy on you. The boys will probably try to lure you away from me" "Not a chance, kiddo. Only one I want in my bed is you ... plus young Ben tonight" Seth grinned. "Do you two, like, fuck ever" "Oh yes, sir. In fact Ben showed me how to do it when I first joined the tribe. He can get pretty wild in bed – must be the gypsy blood in him. You should see us go at it" "Hm, the redhead and the gypsy" Seth, mused."Now here's a thought. But there's one guy who won't think I'm so hot tonight – Pablo. He had a total meltdown at work, yelling insults at our parts supplier on the phone. I had to forcibly restrain him, yanked the phone out of his hand and apologized to the parts guy. Randy's built up a whole lot of goodwill with those guys and I wasn't gonna let Pablo ruin it. "Bet he wasn't best pleased about that" "No kidding. If looks could kill I'd be stone cold dead. He was about to throw a punch but fortunately his lover Darius stepped in and controlled him. But Pablo hated being disciplined, especially by me. He always plays the boss's-boy card. He thinks when Randy's away he should be in charge, so you can imagine how popular I am with him. He's got all of Randy's fire but none of his maturity. "Anyway, we won't worry about him. Hey the table's looking pretty good here. Buffet-style was a good idea – you guys don't have to spend all you time serving at table. OK, what do you want me to do next to help you, kiddo"
<><> THE INSULT <><>
The first guests to arrive were Pablo's boy Tyler and Miguel's boy Finn. They were the tribe's gardeners and had become close friends and fuck-buddies, although they were such opposites. Tyler was a shy kid who idolized Pablo. Finn was a brash ex-hustler who had been tamed by Miguel, though they still took sexual pleasure in skirmishing with each other, which usually ended up with Finn getting butt-fucked by the handsome Hispanic.
The boys had recently come in from the garden, showered together and were now casually dressed. "Welcome, guys" Seth smiled, becoming more comfortable in his unaccustomed role as host. He hugged Tyler and fist-bumped Finn. Tyler was clearly in awe of the big construction boss, and so was Finn, though he hid it well under his usual act of bravado. "Tonight's a help-yourself dinner, and that includes the drinks. Will has set up the self-serve bar over there so drink up"
Just then Will came out with the first dishes that he set up on the buffet table."Hey you guys, good to see you. How's it goin'" Without waiting for an answer he hugged them quickly and ran back to the kitchen. Seth chatted comfortably with the boys, mostly about the garden, and soon they heard the gate slam open and Darius and Pablo came into the living room. "Hey, Seth" Darius said with his usual gleaming smile. "Man, you clean up well – get so used to seeing you in that grungy ol' shirt at work"
Seth laughed. "The cleanup is Will's work. He's taken me in hand and more or less tells me what to wear"
Pablo was standing silently next to Darius who dug him in the ribs. Pablo responded to the prompt by saying, to no one in particular,"Hi, guys" making no eye contact with Seth. Then he turned and went to help himself to a drink. Darius grinned ruefully at Seth, with raised eyebrows and a helpless shrug. "Never mind, Darius" Seth said. "Let's go say hi to the chefs in the kitchen" When they walked in, the three young chefs, all in green aprons and chef's hats, looked up briefly and chorused,"Hi, Darius"
Darius kissed the back of his boy Ryan's neck and grabbed his butt. Then he grinned,"Looks like a well-oiled machine in here Seth. Better not hang around and gum up the works" "Hey" Will said,"don't leave empty handed. Take those wine glasses on that counter with you and place them on the table. "Aye-aye, sir" Darius said, winking at Seth.
In a few minutes all was ready, and the side table groaned under the weight of all the food Will had prepared with his friends' help. "Start at the left" Will said,"that's the appetizers. I'll bring out the beef casserole entrée later, then the dessert"
They did as instructed and in a few minutes all except the chefs were seated at the dining table. Seth said,"Guys, I think it's customary to give out thanks to the chefs for all their hard word. So come on you three – take a bow"
In the well-known ritual gesture, Will, Ben and Ryan took off their chef's hats, held them high, them swooped them down in a deep theatrical bow to the diners' cheers and applause. But Pablo's face was dark. At gatherings of the clan it was always Randy's role to ask the chefs to take a bow. To Pablo this was one more example of Seth's usurping Randy's position as boss.
His dour expression did not go unnoticed, but it was ignored as the chefs took off their aprons and joined the others at table. Seth filled their wine glasses and cleared his throat. "Er, guys, before we start to eat there's something I would like to share with you. It's a thing that don't make much difference to Will and me but I thought we should fill you in now before you hear about it on the grapevine. "Fact of the matter is that Will is not actually my biological son, he's my step-son. I only told Will last night and we're both absolutely cool with it. He's still my son and we love each other just as much as ever, if not more"
There was a stunned silence, until Darius raised his glass."I'll drink to that, Seth. Come on, guys – to Seth and Will, best father/son combo you'll ever meet"
They all happily raised their glasses –"To Seth and Wil" – all except Pablo who saw Darius's best father/son' comment as a putdown to him and Randy. He said,"Is your so-called dad gonna adopt you, Will, like Randy did me? Don't mean a thing if he don't adopt you" "Oh we're not gonna bother with stuff like that, Pablo" Will smiled. "We don't need a piece of paper to prove we love each other. What's in our hearts is much stronger than some official form" "Huh, I wouldn't be so sure, kid. Better make it legal in case you get molested again by your dad' like you did before"
There were shocked gasps around the table and Seth started to get up but Darius put a restraining hand on his arm. Ben jumped in to salvage the moment by saying,"Well I'm gonna celebrate the news by sleeping with Will and Seth tonight – in the same bed. I can't wait" "You think you'll be safe, kid" Pablo said with mock concern. "If a guy has abused one boy already, one more don't make any difference"
Will stifled a sob. He got up and ran to the safety of the kitchen where tears ran down his face. Seth lurched across the table to grab Pablo but Darius stood up. "Guys, stop. I'll take care of this. Seth, I apologize. I need to talk to Pablo. It won't take long and then we'll come back to dinner. Sorry to interrupt your meal, but everything's gonna come out right, I promise"
Darius grabbed Pablo's arm, yanked him up to his feet and propelled him out through the door. Seth rushed to Will in the kitchen, leaving the four junior boys – Ben, Ryan, Finn and Tyler – sitting in stunned silence at the table.
Pablo's boy, the shy Tyler who worshipped Pablo, had gone pale and his eyes brimmed with tears. His buddy Finn put his arm round him and said,"Hey, don't worry kiddo. Pablo's going through some shit right now. I can relate, `cos I can lose it sometimes and get real spiteful – maybe not as mean as that but ... Darius and Seth are good guys. You'll see, they'll fix it. And in the meantime you got me, kid"
In the kitchen Seth found Will leaning forward on the counter crying quietly. Seth turned him around and looked straight in his eyes. "Will, I'm your dad and I love you. That's all you need to know. Together we're tough and we're not gonna let some stupid young bully throwing a temper tantrum upset us" "But he was so mean about you, sir. That's the worst part"
Seth chuckled,"Kiddo, I've had plenty mean words said about me in the past and I managed to rise above it. We're bigger than all that, we gotta let it bounce off us" "I just don't understand, sir. Anyone who says such mean things must be real unhappy and hurting inside for some reason. I know the other, good side of Pablo. He has been really kind to me in the past. Look how he rescued Norman and brought him back to me. I'll always love him for doing that" "Yeah, well this is a problem for him to sort out with Randy, and probably Doc Steve in therapy. Right now I think Darius is having his say and I don't imagine that'll be pretty" "Sir, I should take their plates of food and put them in the fridge for when they get back" "That's the spirit, Will. And we gotta get back to our guests. Those kids are probably shaken and it's our job to reassure them and keep the party going" Seth hugged his boy, who managed a smile. "How about reassuring me, sir, when we go to bed tonight" "Oh I already got plans for that, kid, don't worry. And don't forget we'll have Ben with us. Oh, yeah, I got plans .."
<><> THE WEAPON OF VENGEANCE <><>
Seth was right about Darius. When he pushed Pablo out of Seth's house Pablo protested and struggled but Darius grabbed one of his wrists and twisted his arm up behind his back in a panful hammerlock.
Darius's sinewy black body was powerful, stronger than Pablo's, and Pablo knew it. In truth Pablo didn't feel like fighting against him anyway. After his insulting outburst at table he was startled by his own vindictiveness. It had been the culmination of his rage that had been building all day, and his frustration at having to take orders from Seth.
It had been an impulsive act and he was now torn between his anger at the world and regret that he had let his tongue take over in such an explosive way. So, as Darius pushed him painfully into the compound and up the steps to the second floor, he allowed his longtime lover take charge. Pablo's resistance now was merely token.
But he hadn't reckoned on the force of Darius's anger. When they crashed into their bedroom Darius yanked Pablo's arm up behind his back with such force that Pablo howled as he was thrown bodily on the bed. He looked up at the raging black buck with resentment tinged with fear. He saw the light blazing from Darius's green eyes that he recognize as real fury" "What the fuck was that, boy" Darius yelled. "What in god's name was that? I know you got the same rage in you as your dad Randy has, but believe me, Randy would never take it out on a sweet kid like Will. This was his evening, his party, and you totally fucked it up and made the kid cry. You know that everyone loves that boy, and I'm telling you, right now everyone hates you, and they'll hate you even more when this crazy stuff gets out. "I'll tell you something else. No one loves that kid and his freckled face more than Randy – he ruffles his hair and even has a pet name for him – `Red'. You know how he feels about anyone who hurts a boy, especially this boy. I can only imagine his reaction when he gets to hear of what you've done"
Pablo snapped,"I wasn't going after Will. It was his so-called dad I attacked, and I had every reason to. The man dares to criticize me in front of the crew, playing the big boss" Pablo sneered. "He wouldn't have done that if Randy had been there" "Which is precisely why he did it – in Randy's absence he was the boss, and he did just the right thing `cos you were being a total douchebag. But you know what? I don't know why I'm even having this conversation with you, listening to your whining bullshit. We've been through this crap before. Last time you behaved like a goon I had to beat you up and make you crawl and apologize – and here we are again, back at square one" "I only told the truth, man. Seth is a child molester and everyone knows it"
Darius hit the roof. "Fuck you, boy. Damn you to hell. You can be disgusting, you know that" "So what you gonna do about it, big guy, beat me up again? Didn't work the first time, you just said so yourself. Or maybe pound me with that almighty black club of yours? Go ahead, asshole, I've taken that dick up my ass so often I don't hardly feel it"
Darius was driven to a pitch of rage. "Well you'll damn-well feel it this time, you sick fuck"
Pablo was on his back on the bed propped up on his elbows. With the speed of a black panther Darius was on him, slammed him flat on his back and straddled his face, kneeling on his biceps. He reached up to the rope that was always round the bedpost for their sex games, and quickly tied it round his wrists. Pablo tried to struggle but the full weight of the muscular body on his arms had him pinned to the bed as Darius tied his other wrist to the other bedpost.
Pablo had never seen his lover so angry and he pulled frantically at his bound wrists, his arms stretched up on the bed. Darius looked down at him and slapped his face. "You fucking shit-for-brains sicko" he yelled. Then he sat on his face, grinding his ass across it so Pablo was gasping for breath as his face was buried in the rough denim of Darius's jeans.
Finally Darius pulled back and glared down at the handsome Mestizo face that was gasping for breath. "You ever see a black boy totally lose control, boy? `Cos you're looking at one now" In one quick move Darius ripped Pablo's T-shirt off his body and stuffed the tattered fragments in his mouth. He jumped off the bed, pulled off Pablo's sneakers, yanked down his jeans and shorts and tossed them angrily aside.
The naked, muscular mechanic struggled again to get free, staring wildly up at the savage black stud with fear on his eyes, groaning into his gag. He watched as Darius pulled off his own shirt, kicked off his boots and dropped his jeans. Pablo focused on the huge black ten-inch weapon swinging beneath his thighs "Take a good look, asshole" Darius growled. "You say you don't even feel this when I fuck you? You're so full of shit"
Both men were naked now and Darius resumed his former position kneeling across Pablo's face. He grabbed his cock and slapped it repeatedly across the handsome squared-jawed face, one side then the other, as the mechanic screamed into his gag. "You don't like the gag" Darius scowled. "OK, try this"
He pulled out the torn shirt and leaned forward so the tip of his thick cock was touching Pablo's lips. Darius grabbed the top of the headboard and rose up on his feet, his body arched over the naked, bound mechanic. Suddenly his hips dropped and his cock slammed into Pablo's mouth, all ten inches driving in deep and making Pablo choke and his body spasm.
Darius had fucked his lover's face before but never like this. He pulled all the way back, then drove in again and again. Pablo's eyes opened wide with fear as he tried desperately to breathe through his nose and gagged helplessly on the massive shaft. Tears streamed down his face but Darius was relentless. The attack went on and Pablo was close to passing out when it suddenly stopped and Darius pulled out" "Did you feel it this time, dude? Did you feel my dick all the way down your throat" "Yeah" Pablo groaned. "Yes what, asshole" "Yes, sir" "That's better. Now I can go again, or switch to your butt and pound your ass instead. You prob'ly prefer that `cos you said you hardly felt it" "I was boasting, man. I always feel your cock" "So what's it to be – your face or your ass" "My ass ... please Darius, not my face. Fuck my ass ... please .."
Darius lost no time. He scooted back and knelt between Pablo's legs that he pushed back so they were doubled back over his chest. His ass was pointing straight up at the cock that was now hard as steel. "You deserve this, man, for being such a sick fuck and a bully. Will could never do this to you, so the job's mine. So this is for Will .."
Darius raised his hips ... and drove his rod hard in the helpless ass until the head was buried in the fiery, sensitive depths. Ignoring the mechanic's howls of pain, he pulled back and drove in again, and again. It was a merciless fuck, and he crammed the shirt back in the captive's mouth to muffle his screams. Pablo's defiant look quickly changed to one of desperation, his eyes pleading for Darius to have mercy on him.
Darius knew that his cock could be a lethal weapon so he stopped short of doing actual damage. But that was no consolation to his victim who felt like his ass was being split in two as the brutal fuck seemed endless. His muscles flexed, his body writhed and his chiseled features grimaced in pain as his black whipped over his face that thrashed desperately from side to side. His agony went on and on until eventually his shouts died down from sheer exhaustion and Darius pulled out the gag.
The fuck slowed. "OK, stud, you ready to say how sorry you are for behaving like a dickhead and insulting Seth and Will" "Yes sir" Pablo groaned. "Please, I can't take anymore, I'm done. I'm begging you, man. Make it stop" All the fight had gone out of him and he was now a helpless supplicant begging for mercy. And it was not just to make the pain stop. Darius's rage, his urge to hurt his own lover, had rammed home to Pablo the damage he had done by his impulsive outburst and irrational anger at Seth. "So let's hear it dude"
Tears flowed again, but this time tears of humiliation and remorse. "I'm sorry, Darius. I just lost it – my anger ... I lost control. I love Will and I realize how my words hurt him. I never meant to hurt him. Help me, Darius. Help me .." "You don't deserve it, but here it comes" With one last mighty thrust Darius buried his cock deeper than ever and flooded the ravaged ass with his jizz, As Pablo howled, Darius pulled out, grabbed his cock and sprayed the last of his juice over his lover's agonized face in his mouth.
<><> CALM AFTER THE STORM <><>
Darius stared down at the pathetic face of the once-proud Mestizo mechanic, his chiseled features running with semen and tears. Darius was overcome with pity for the man he had loved for so long, and he fell forward and scooped him in his arms.
When he pulled back he wiped Pablo's face with the fragments of his torn T-shirt. "Dude, why do you make me do this to you? You know I can't let your spiteful words go unpunished but I'd much rather be making love to you"
Darius sighed deeply. "Remember when we first met all those years ago, fixing up Randy's bike in the garage? I was already living here and when you showed up we were suspicious of each other, circled each other like rivals. But when I looked at that bubble butt, and you saw the ten-inch bulge of my dick in my pants, remember what we said? `Your ass and my dick – a match made in heaven" "Yeah" Pablo said weakly. "As I recall we put a Men at Work' sign on the garage door and fucked. Then we went indoors and holed up for a couple days making love" Pablo's face crumpled."Darius. Please don't stop loving me. Please, buddy. I know I screwed up again big time, and I need your help ... and your love, dude" "Ah, I'm never gonna stop loving you, kid. Even when you behave like a total dickhead, I can't not love you. You and me, we're in it for the long haul. Besides" Darius grinned,"where would I ever find another butt as perfect as yours"
That brought a wan smile from Pablo, but Darius turned serious. "But dude, we gotta get to the bottom of all this. I mean, this ain't our first time at the rodeo, far from it. We can't keep going through the cycle of you in a towering rage insulting everyone in sight, then I punish you, you say sorry and `never again' ... until the next time. I mean, buddy, what the fuck is your problem? Like today at work for example"
Pablo frowned. "It was that fuckup with the truck parts. I knew how Randy would have handled it and I tried to do the same thing" "Ah, it all comes back to Randy" Darius said. "Dude, I got a news flash ... there will never be another Randy ... he's unique, a complicated mix of strength, dominance, kindness and macho charm. Oh he can fuck up too, but he has Bob to calm him down and make him see sense. I know you try to copy Randy in every way, but dude, you will never be another Randy. When you were yelling at the parts supplier you had some of his anger but not the maturity and stature that he has. All our suppliers respect Randy, but right now they don't respect his boy" "I know it, Darius, and that made me even more angry. I know Seth is a good guy and Randy was right to make him a manager but, when he started giving me orders, that touched a raw spot, made me feel even less like Randy. Seth would never talk to Randy like that. It gnawed at me and I let rip at dinner and insulted him ... jeez, when I think about what I said .." "Look, kid, what's done is done. So let me be your Bob and help you the way he does Randy. Here's what's gotta happen. When Randy gets back in town you have to make a clean breast of everything. Better it comes from you than from everyone else. Randy's unpredictable, so he'll do what he does. Then you gotta have a shrink session with Doc Steve. Do you still see him regularly" "Nah, I gave up. Didn't like the way he talked down to me" "There it is again ... `He wouldn't talk to Randy like that.' Dude, you are a hot looking man, a macho mechanic with the body and butt of death, but you've still got this weird inferiority thing where you think guys are talking down to you and you've gotta hit back hard – like yelling at the parts guy, insulting Seth, and walking out on Doc Steve. "That's what you gotta talk to the doc about, and it's prob'ly best to take Randy too as he's the key to all this. But that's for when Randy gets back. Right now, this minute, we gotta get back down to the dinner party you did your best to fuck up" "And face those guys? I don't think I can, Darius .." "The hell you will, boy. You've apologized to me but the guys you insulted were Seth and that sweet kid Will. You owe them big time, and you're not gonna chicken out and hide"
Darius opened a drawer, pulled out another shirt and flung it at Pablo. "So let's get dressed and get back down to those guys" "Dude" Pablo said meekly. "Will you kiss me"
Darius's ebony features broke into a gleaming, white-tooth smile. He put his hands on the sides of Pablo's face and pulled him into a long, loving kiss" When at last he pulled back Darius grinned, "You came in here with a sore head, buddy, and you're leaving with a sore ass. Pretty fair exchange I'd say. A move in the right direction"
<><> PEACE? <><>
At the dinner table Seth was doing his best to keep things lively, swapping work jokes with the gardeners Finn and Tyler and the computer expert Ryan. But it was clear that Tyler and Ryan were nervous about what was happening next door with their masters Pablo and Darius.
Will was wondering if he should bring the main course out from the kitchen, when they heard the gate creak open and Darius and Pablo came into the room. Conversation stopped and there was an awkward silence around the table. It was obvious from Pablo's subdued look that something heavy had gone down between them. The silence was broken by Darius who said,"Guys, sorry for the delay but before we sit down Pablo has something to say"
He nudged Pablo who took a deep breath. "Guys, I've been an asshole. This was gonna be a celebration and I was the rude guest at the party. I acted like a wrecking ball. But Darius, er, made me see what a total idiot I was being and he, er .."
As Pablo faltered Darius said,"Let's just say, guys, that he might have a problem sitting down at table" The laughter that followed broke the ice and encouraged Pablo to continue. "Seth, the things I said to you were not only insulting but untrue. I hope one day you'll see your way clear to forgiving me"
Seth stood up and smiled."Dude, like I told my boy Will, in the past I've shrugged off all kinds of insults from guys, so I don't see why I can't shrug off one more. Peace" He held out his hand which Pablo shook eagerly. Then Pablo turned to Will who stood up to face him. "Will, I love you kiddo, like everyone does, and I'm ashamed at the way I badmouthed you and your dad. Of all people, you are the last one I should have treated that way. And I interrupted your dinner party that you've worked so hard on. It prob'ly don't help, but I'm really, really sorry"
The boys at the table held their breath in the silence that followed. Then Will reached up, stroked Pablo's face, and kissed him, to the cheers of everyone watching. When he pulled back he said,"Pablo, I've always admired you a whole lot, and I thank you for what you just said. And this guy thanks you too .."
Will picked up his pug Norman who had been sitting at his feet. He pushed his stubby face close to Pablo's and Norman licked his cheeks. "See, he remembers you're the guy who rescued him and brought him home to me" There was a renewed burst of laughter and cheers as Will put Norman down and said,"Guys, I covered your plates of food in the kitchen. I'll go get them and we can get this party back in gear" "Music to my ears, Will" Darius said,"'cos I'm fucking starved"
The clouds lifted as suddenly as they had descended earlier. Pablo sat next to his boy Tyler who had been watching nervously, and Pablo threw his arm over his shoulder and kissed him. "We still OK, kid" "Absolutely, sir" Tyler said, his eyes shining.
Ryan jumped up, threw his arms round Darius and said quietly,"I'm so proud of you, sir, you're my hero I want to grow up and be like you" "Well, kid" Darius laughed,"somehow I don't think you'll turn black anytime soon, but the rest we can work on"
Will brought in the plates he had been keeping for Darius and Pablo and it was surprising how soon the party resumed the happy rhythm of before the ugly interruption. Pablo was no longer the sulking downer he had been earlier. The savage treatment he had received from Darius and his lethal weapon, followed by their frank discussion, had somehow tamed his demons, for now anyway, and now he didn't try to paper over the cracks.
He even talked about his intended visit to Doc Steve and Finn said,"That guy really knows his stuff. You all know that I was a handful for Miguel at first, but he dragged me off to the doc and a couple a' sessions with him made me see the light. Not that I don't still kick up rough but Miguel knows how to tame me – I'm happy to say"
Pablo was even bold enough to resume the previous conversation from the point it had broken off so abruptly. "So, Ben, you say you're gonna share the bed tonight of Seth and Will. I wouldn't mind being a fly on that wall"
A newly confident Tyler jumped in unexpectedly. "Finn and me watched Will and Ben having sex in the garden once and it was awesome. When you put a dark-haired gypsy and a redhead together it looks real hot. You should a' been there, sir" looking at Seth. "Well I will be there tonight, Tyler" Seth chuckled. "I'll have a ringside seat. I love fucking with Will, of course, but sometimes it's almost as sexy to watch as it is to do. How's that sound Will"
Will giggled. "It was Ben taught me how to fuck when I first came here, and since then we've perfected our act. If it's a show you want, sir, we're pretty good at that, eh Ben" "Sure thing" Ben grinned. "Course, we're also open to a little audience participation too"
Seth threw his head back and laughed. "Boys, you really know how to treat a guy. But that's for later. Right now I could murder a large whiskey and a slice of that rhubarb pie" "Coming right up, sir"
