Believe: Trust & Consent, #2

By Megan Slayer

Raylan believed himself unworthy of love until he met Chase. Chase brought out Raylan's natural need to control and the power to force submission. But time and distance make having a relationship hard. Can Raylan prove to Chase they have what it takes for love to last through this Christmas and every other Christmas for the rest of their lives?

Chase found the muse for his songs in Raylan. Each time they touch, kiss, make love, music fills his soul. But working odd gigs to make ends meet while Raylan photographs rock and roll royalty aren't beneficial to Chase's creativity.

Can he convince Raylan they're better off together than apart?

About the Author

Trust & Consent

Raylan believed himself unworthy of love until he met Chase. Chase brought out

Raylan’s natural need to control and the power to force submission. But time and

distance make having a relationship hard. Can Raylan prove to Chase they have what it

takes for love to last through this Christmas and every other Christmas for the rest of their lives?

Chase found the muse for his songs in Raylan. Each time they touch, kiss, make

love, music fills his soul. But working odd gigs to make ends meet while Raylan

photographs rock and roll royalty aren’t beneficial to Chase’s creativity.

Can he convince Raylan they’re better off together than apart?

Dedication

For those who said you’ll never make it and those who believed I could.

To JPZ, you helped me believe.

Chapter One

CHRISTMAS IS THE TIME for doing unto others, man.

Chase cocked one brow and stared at his band mate. Dave, how much have you had to drink? You’re swaying.

Two. Dave wobbled on his feet. One was a virgin.

Not the blonde I saw you in the corner with. I meant what have you had to drink.

He gritted his teeth. We’re here to play music, not to get you a date.

Fucktard. Dave sneered and his bloodshot eyes narrowed. Maybe if you got some on a steady basis, you wouldn’t be such a pain in the ass. It’s almost Christmas, man. Just leave me the fuck alone. He turned away from Chase, only to turn back again. Better yet, why don’t you just fuck me and get it out of your system? I heard Raylan’s got a guy on the side. What if I’m the one to get your songwriting mojo working again? I could be.

The thrum of conversation and the sticky sweet scent of eggnog wafted around

Chase, souring his stomach. Playing the little gigs here and there helped pay the bills, but it did nothing for his love life and even less for his desire to write songs. Forget Dave and his come-ons. Chase missed spending time with his partner. Hell, he missed actually being in the apartment at the same time as Raylan. Thirteen Christmas parties in a little more than three weeks and for what? Fifty bucks a gig and no new tunes
