The tail moved onwards, pressing along his taint, massaging it. Pre-cum dribbled from his cock over the forest below.
“Uzoth!” Grady screamed.
“That’s it. Let me hear you.”
The tip of Uzoth’s tail nudged Grady’s entrance.
Grady’s arsehole clenched as the tail teased his rim, pushing against the tight ring of muscle. Squeezing his eyes shut, Grady sobbed. Uzoth’s grip tightened, stroking Grady’s member faster. Grady’s whole body trembled as his pleasure peaked.
Then the tail slid into his hole, wiggling inside him.
Grady screamed. He convulsed as his dick jerked in Uzoth’s grip. Uzoth’s arm and tail tightened around him, holding him securely as his cum spilled in spurts over the trees below. Uzoth kept jerking him, wringing every drop of his seed from him.
Grady’s whole body tingled. Finally, Uzoth’s tail withdrew. He tucked Grady’s dick away and did up Grady’s trousers. Grady sagged in his arms. They circled and flew back towards the city.
Despite flying up so high, Grady now felt completely relaxed.
CHAPTER 30
With his feet firmly on the ground, Grady let out a breath. He laughed. “I have to confess as amazing as that was, I’m glad to have my feet on the ground.” Reaching out, Grady slid his hand into Uzoth’s and tugged him. “Now let’s go up into the apartment.”
Despite that incredible flight over the city, he now needed to touch Uzoth and prove to himself the gargoyle hadn’t turned to stone, that he was fully flesh and blood. Grady’s gaze kept flicking over Uzoth before settling on his black eyes. Black eyes. Not grey stone. Uzoth’s eyes had returned to normal.
He is not a statue. He did not turn into one. He is alive. I have not lost him.
But Grady had a sense that Uzoth had come very close to turning into a gargoyle statue, never to wake again.
Grady glanced at the bakery window. He could see movement within. “But I have to do something first.” He strode forward, pulling Uzoth along.
He opened the bakery door. In the front area, customers lined up. Lacy and Trent served. Meanwhile, Wulfric, under Briar’s supervision, opened the oven door and slid a tray within. Cas picked up a basket of cookies to take out front.
“Cas,” Grady said.
Cas’s wings fluttered, his feet hovering above the floor as he turned to face Grady. He saw Uzoth. A smile lit up his face. He glanced at Uzoth and Grady’s entwined hands.
Pixie dust burst into the air. “Oh! I’m so happy. I worried about the two of you!”
“Well, you don’t have to worry anymore. I’ve realised I’ve been a dickhead and come to my senses.” Grady smiled at Uzoth.
Uzoth smiled back.
“Good!” Cas said. “I’m so glad.”
Grady took a deep breath and turned back to Cas. “I’m taking the rest of the day off.”
Cas laughed.
Grady lifted his brows, smiling wryly. “I’m not joking. I am taking the rest of the day off.”
Cas’s laughter died. “Really? But you never take any time off. Ever.”
“Well, I am today,” Grady said. “I’m going to spend it with Uzoth. Can you organise someone to cover for me? I know we aren’t open much longer here. But I was meant to close. And the markets are still going.” His heart raced as he tried to think through everything that needed to be taken care of. “Jasper, Leo, and Ordelia are there at the moment, but it’s the final day of the?—”
“We’ll be fine.” Cas flew towards him. He took a hand off the basket of cookies and placed it on Grady’s shoulder. He squeezed. “For the rest of the day, we can manage without you.”
Grady’s throat closed up.Without you.They could manage without him. It shouldn’t hurt. But it did. His siblings didn’t need him like they once had. He really did need to be needed by them.
“Good. That’s good.” Grady nodded. Because it was good, even if his feelings indicated otherwise. His siblings had grownup. That was right. And it meant he could be with Uzoth. “I’ll be in tomorrow for the Christmas morning rush.”
