The rushing waterfall calmed Irial as he stepped from the small hut.

It
had been a tiresome few weeks as he tried to understand what was
going on along with work out his anger towards Adonis. He had last
seen the Bashir a few days ago when Adonis announced that he would
be away fro the week. Irial, still angry with him, just brushed the
young man off. He still didn’t know what had happened to Cade’s
body or if it had even been laid to rest which only made problems
worse between the two lovers.

Stripping off his clothes he stepped into the river and headed towards
the waterfall. Ducking his head under the flowing water he bathed
himself letting his mind wander. No matter how hard he tried his
thoughts would always turn to Cade and how much Irial regretted the
things he never did with his best friend along with the longing he felt
for Adonis. He was letting his stubbornness get the better of him and it
was dragging him into loneliness.

A pair of strong arms wrapped around his waist and pulled him away
from the waterfall. Irial turned to come face to face with Adonis who
looked at him sadly.

“I thought you would be away for the week?” Irial asked pushing a
lock of silver hair behind Adonis’s ear.

“They sent me back stating that I needed to spend time with my keda.
Actually they told me that I needed to reprimand you for pushing me
away but I understand your reasons. I am afraid I that have been
neglecting you for to long.”

“Well I haven’t exactly made things easy for you.” Irial said nuzzling
Adonis’s cheek.

“You are grieving for all those you have lost and I have pushed him so
far back in my mind that I can’t even remember his face. I am so
afraid that I am going to loose you but I didn’t know how to break
through the barrier you had placed between us. I already don’t know if
they…” Adonis faltered looking away. Irial sighed wondering what
the big secret was and whether or not it had to do with him or Cade.
“Now that you’re here maybe you can work on breaking down that
barrier.” Irial whispered as he thought of about a hundred things he
wanted to do with his lover.

“I think we can do a few of those things but we will eventually need to

talk.” Adonis chuckled pulling Irial back under the waterfall. They
found the small cave Irial had found a few days ago.

“There is nothing I want to talk about.” Irial looked at his feet pushing
Adonis away.

“You are shattering in front of me and I can’t loose you because of

what I have done. I want you to be angry with me, I want you to tell
me everything about those –I”

“Don’t.” Irial held up a hand silencing Adonis. “I just want to pretend

like nothing has happened for a few minutes. I want some time with
the man I love then we can go back to reality.”

Adonis nodded and pressed his lips to Irial’s letting his tongue slip
into his keda’s mouth. Irial moaned when Adonis ran a finger over his
member. Dropping to his knees Adonis took the young man in his
mouth. Tossing his head back Irial groaned as Adonis found that small
spot on the underside of his member, making his toes curl in pleasure.

“Wait I don’t want to finish yet.” Irial panted pushing Adonis away
from him.

Pushing Adonis back so he could straddle the boy Irial lowered

himself onto Adonis. Long fingers wrapped around Irial’s hips helping
the young man steady himself as he took his lover in. Green eyes met
lust filled blue ones when Irial began moving his hips.

“It has been to long since I have had you last.” Adonis moaned
pressing his lips to Irial’s chest.

“I have been very stubborn.” Irial moaned when Adonis shifted and
hit his prostate.
“I know love try not to think about it now.” Adonis bit roughly on
Irial’s neck sending a shiver of pain and pleasure down Irial’s spine.

Irial’s moans echoed off the slick walls of the cave as Irial moved
faster onto his lover. Adonis took Irial’s member into his hands
working him to the rhythm he had set. Leaning forward Irial pulled
Adonis in for a deep kiss as he released himself. Wrapping his
muscles around the member inside him he brought Adonis to his own
completion.

“I will have to bath again.” Irial panted wrapping his arms around
Adonis’s neck.

“Let’s put bathing on hold and return to the hut. I want to make love
to you again.” Irial nodded standing and pulling Adonis with him.

Irial’s mind searched for a position he had been dying to try with
Adonis for a long time. They climbed out of the river and Irial stopped
dead in his tracks. A young man stood leaning on the small hut pushed
off it striding towards the two.

“I don’t mean to interrupt your fun but I was wondering if I could join
in?” Grey eyes were alight with interest.

“You, you died.” Irial whispered stepping backwards and into

Adonis’s arms.

“Actually no I was still alive but barely.” Cade said stepping towards
his two lovers. The bullet just missed my heart and I did stop
breathing but the healers brought me back.”

“How?” Irial asked reaching out to touch Cade’s face. Cade just
smiled and took Irial’s hand pulling the young man forward so he
could kiss him.

“Cade refused to release his soul so when the elder told me he was
still alive I begged him to try to save him.” Adonis said wrapping his
arms around Irial.

“Why didn’t you tell me?” Irial asked still in disbelief.

“Because there was still the possibility that he would die and I
couldn’t bare to break your heart twice.” Adonis explained letting his
hand run down Irial’s wet chest.

“So you’re alive?”

“I couldn’t stand in front of you if I wasn’t.” Cade chuckled letting his

hands follow Adonis’s path on Irial’s skin.

A soft tingle erupted over the skin that had been touched and Irial felt
a strong heat growing inside his stomach. His body was reacting to his
two lovers and he wanted to have both of them badly.

“Don’t worry love you can have us both.” Cade whispered taking
Irial’s hand and leading him into the hut with Adonis trailing behind
them.

“Because of my violent behavior I have been exiled and my half

brother will take the throne. The village has given us this hut to live in
and they will come once a week to trade with us.” Adonis said
stepping back into the small hut sighing.

The Bashir smiled at his two keda who were naked on the bed where
he had left them a few hours ago. Irial was sitting on top of Cade
while the other young man stretched his muscles.

“Does it count as being exiled if the village still interacts with us?”
Cade asked stifling a moan when Irial bit down on one of his nipples.

“Our definition of exile and yours are very different. Giana has also
told me that she will stay in the village and your child will come to
live with us once he is born. That means that we need to build a larger
home.”

“I have a few ideas on what we should do.” Cade said smacking away
Irial’s searching fingers.
“Yes I like your first idea we will need to have enough space so when
the baby is older so he does not hear us.” Adonis chuckled as he
watched his keda play with each other.

“I can think of about six things we should do right now.” Irial huffed
holding Cade’s arms down so he could slide himself onto the other.

“If you keep that up we will never get anything done.” Adonis scolded
as he moved towards the bed.

“The baby wont be here for six more months, we have plenty of time.”
Cade sighed as he watched Irial pleasure himself.

“There will be a child living here before you know it.” Adonis shook
his head when Cade took his hand and pulled him down for a kiss.
“What happened to the two soldiers who took me in so long ago?”

“I was shot by my father and almost died, that changes a man.” Cade
laughed. “And what happened to the small, innocent boy who I
volunteered to care for?”

“He’s still here but there were two young men who taught him all
kinds of dirty things and now he’s been corrupted.” Adonis smiled
stripping off his clothes and joining his lovers on the bed.
