Spade sat still in his car trying to process what he'd just heard and what had just happened a few seconds ago, he is supposed to be angry at Nate's outburst and somewhat disrespected but he was more turned on than he was angry. He was actually angry but the feeling of heat rushing towards his groin was more prominent than the anger.

He could still the anger on Nate's face as he talked to him, letting him know exactly what he thought of him. Was he self absorbed? Yes, was he selfish? Yes But what he did today, going out of his way and taking Nate to the casino, and even letting him play freely, that wasn't an act of selfishness, he didn't do that for himself, he did for Nate and that was a first.

He'd never gone out of his way to do something nice for someone else, not even Matteo, okay maybe once for Matteo, but that was it.

He sighed out and ran his hands down his face, he felt like his mind was in so many places at once, he was thinking of what happened between Nate and him a few minutes ago, he was thinking about how Nate looked free at the casino and he was thinking about what to do next.

His eyes moved to the entrance of the building, the same one Nate just walked in through, he shook his head and turned on the key on his car, it came to life and his eyes moved to the building again, he shut his eyes and clenched his jaw

"Damnit" he cursed out before turning off the car engine, he sighed out and pulled his phone out of his pocket, he dialed a number as he opened the door and stepped out of the car.

The phone starts ringing, after two rings the person on the other side picked up, he heard shuffling on the other side of the phone. "Matteo" he muttered and he heard the other man groaned from the other end

"Oh God Spade, do you even know what time it is" he groaned out groggily and Spade just sighed out almost rolling his eyes.

"Where the fuck are you"? He asked and the line went silent again, only shuffling could be heard from the other side of the phone.

"Don't you ever sleep? It's almost 12" Matteo groaned out totally ignoring Spade's question.

"Where the fuck are you Matteo"? he gritted out trying to control his anger, he was already getting agitated with Matteo's complaints.

"I'm at the penthouse, where else would I be"? He muttered and Spade just sighed out "why are you...." Spade cut the call and advanced towards the entrance of the apartment building, he put the phone back into his pocket as he took long strides towards the entrance.

He stopped in front of the double doors before pushing it open and stepping inside the building, the lobby was empty, even the desk was empty. He walked briskly towards the elevator and stepped in, he pressed the button for the penthouse.

He shoved his hands into his pocket as he kept thinking about what he was doing, why was he stressing so much about one person? This was so unlike him, he was barely getting any sleep.

He looked at the button on the top of the elevator door, watching as it counted each floor he passes until it stopped at the penthouse floor, it dinged and both doors pulled open, he stepped out and headed towards the door of the penthouse.

He rang the bell and waited, he couldn't hear anything from the other side, the door was soundproof. He shoved his hands into his pocket and waited patiently.

Soon enough he heard the clicking sound of the door as it opened, Matteo was standing on the other side with blue robe tied around his body, his eyes looked groggy as if he just woken up from sleep

His hair was a total mess "What are you doing here"? He asked in surprise as his eyes came in contact with Spade's, before stepping aside for him to walk in.

Spade walked into the house, he looked around ignoring Matteo's question, he wasn't really even sure why he was here in the first place, thinking about it now, his reason for being here was pretty petty and suddenly felt stupid.

"What are you doing here Spade"? Matteo asked clearly now, all the sleep wiping off his face, he looked serious now as he watched Spade's eyes rake through the room.

"Where's your laptop Matteo"? He asked and Matteo scrunched his brows up in confusion, looking at Spade

"Why do you need my laptop"? He asked and Spade just sighed out before turning to face him completely. "What are you doing here Spade"? He asked seriously, already sensing this wasn't just one of Spade's tantrums.

He clenched his jaw and looked at Matteo, he wasn't gonna let it go, not until he told him why he was here. He sighed out "I need to see something" he muttered, Matteo was still looking at him like he'd grown two heads "fuck" he cussed out "I need to check on the Miller kid okay" he rushed out finally getting it off his chest

Matteo already understood what was going on, so he didn't need to ask too much questions before he sighed out and nodded, he walked into the room leaving Spade there, while he looked around the living area.

It had been a while he's been here, the place looked exactly the same as the last time he came here. He heard the door open again and Matteo walked out with the laptop in his hands.

He walked towards the kitchen island and dropped the laptop there, Spade followed him and stood just behind him as he opened the laptop and unlocked it. He quickly opened the live feed to Nate's room, before looking at Spade one more time, he stepped aside and let him stand in his position.

He looked from the screen to Spade, he really couldn't understand Spade's obsession to this kid, it was getting a bit too much. Spade had never stressed over anyone like this, whether they were a threat or not, but with this kid, Spade was pulling his hair in so many directions and in a way, it bothered Matteo, especially after knowing the kid was not even a threat to them.

Spade narrowed his eyes on the computer screen as he couldn't see anyone, the feed was in the living room, so he moved it to the camera in the bedroom and it was still empty, but there were clothes scattered on the bed, the same clothes Nate had worn when they were together, which meant he had to be in the house somewhere.

He sighed out as he rubbed his chin, still focused on the screen. Matteo looked at him before standing up straight from the counter, he tapped Spade's shoulder before walking away from the kitchen and heading towards the bedroom. He had a feeling Spade needed some time alone, and he was gonna give him just that.

Spade looked around the kitchen and pulled a chair out from beneath the counter, he situated himself on the chair and fixed his eyes back on the screen as he looked at Nate's bedroom.

Contrary to what he'd always imagined, Nate's bedroom was quite different. It wasn't poise or neatly kept but it wasn't littered either. It was almost too plain, no paintings or posters on the wall, no special design or flashy paint job.

It somehow depicted how Nate was in nature, not that he was saying Nate was plain but it showed the calmness of it's owner.

The bathroom door on the screen opened and Nate stepped out, dripping with water, Spade didn't even know his lips had opened slightly as he watched Nate from head to toe. He was wearing a white towel around his waist, and it hung below his v line, a few hair were scattered just above his belly button, Spade's eyes moved towards his chest and he swallowed when his eyes came in contact with his pink, almost invincible nipple, just like his lips.

Spade could feel his whole body lit with an unfamiliar fire, heat rushed from all parts of his body and stopped at a particular part, he felt his trouser suddenly become tight, his little guy could hardly breathe in there. His whole body tingled until they moved to his fingers, he clenched his fists together.

As he watched the young man on the screen walk around the room with his hair dripping with water, his hair was wet and fell over his face, his pale skin shone bright and looked more radiant than Spade had ever seen.

His eyes moved lower until they passed where the towel hung low on Nate's waist, Spade felt like if Nate moved too much, the towel would fall off, his eyes were working on their own accord as they passed Nate's waist and went further down, he swallowed hard as his eyes landed on the forbidden territory, the one place he shouldn't even be looking at but his eyes were eager.

He could see the outline of Nate's dick, even though it was flaccid at the moment, Spade could somehow still recognize it from the towel. Unlike other times when it would start slow and he could actually relish in the feeling, this time it happened suddenly and fast, he almost jumped when it happened.

His dick sprang up, making it difficult for him to even adjust it in his pants, he sucked in a sharp breath as the tightness between his legs only increased the more he tried to move, his eyes slowly left the screen and landed on his crotch area, it wasn't subtle or hidden.

Even a blind man could see that he was having a hard on right now, it felt painfully hard, he slowly inched his hands closer to his member as he shut his eyes and let his hand rest on it, he gasped out lowly as he felt how thick and hard he had gotten in just a few seconds. He could feel his dick pulsate in his hands as he tried to push it down, what the hell was going on with him? He wasn't just having a phase now, he really was getting sexually excited because of Nate, because of another man.

He could feel every nerve in his body fight him as he tried to fight off the feeling. It was like he was fighting a losing war, the harder he tried to get his dick to go down, the more excited it got and the harder it got.

It was becoming painfully hard now, he shut his eyes tight and tried to think of something else but it wasn't working, all that appeared in his mind were images of an almost naked Nate standing in front of him. He sucked in a breath and opened his eyes quickly, it seemed that even his mind was working against him.

He slowly took his hands off his hard member to take a look and it was still very hard, as hard as rock, he cussed out as his eyes trailed back to the screen, Nate was now standing with his back to him, he was facing the closet door.

He heard the bedroom door open and he quickly placed his hand back on his crotch area, trying to hide his not so little problem down there.

He felt Matteo's presence behind him before he heard his voice "What you doing"? He asked and his eyes landed on an almost naked Nate and his mouth formed an 'o' "Oh wow" he muttered as Spade turned to look at him, seeing his eyes rake through Nate's body, Spade clenched his jaw, he felt something burning deep inside his chest, he so badly wanted to tell Matteo to get his eyes off the screen but he didn't.

He looked away from Matteo and back on the screen, Nate had opened the closet door and was standing right at the entrance middle, still with his back to the camera. Spade was still trying to hide his hard on from Matteo as he tried to stop it from getting any harder but that was almost impossible, not with Nate still standing almost half naked on the screen.

Nate suddenly hooked his hands to the towel around his waist as both men's eyes widen, one dreading the reaction his body would give upon seeing the complete nakedness of Nate, while the other only shocked at how easy it was for Nate to always strip for the camera.

Slowly but surely, Nate began peeling off the towel, Spade tensed as the top part of Nate's butt began showing, he swallowed hard as he felt Matteo's body heat close to him, he didn't want anyone to be seeing this, this was going too far

He quickly reach out to the laptop and shut it with a thud, feeling his nerves relax a bit. Both men suddenly realized how awkward it was for them now, after almost watching Nate go completely naked in front of them The air was now tense and awkward, as they both stared at the open space in front of them

With Spade's hand still clutching to his crotch area, he had double issues to deal with, the sudden awkward and tense air between them and his not so little guy threatening to burst out of his pants at the slightest provocation.

But his mind was playing with him and taunting him, what if Matteo hadn't walked in when he did, would he have kept watching until Nate took off the towel completely? What would have happened then? Was that going to satiate whatever stupid feeling his stomach and groin got whenever he saw Nate or thought of him?

He sighed out and cleared his throat "So......" Matteo's drawled out still looking at the open space "that was awkward" he muttered and Spade just clenched his jaw as he tried to hide his hand on his crotch from Matteo.

Spade was still somehow lost in thought as he dug deep into his mind. He can't keep going like this with Nate, this cat and mouse game they were playing was getting him nowhere, instead it was slowing him down, this wasn't what he had in mind when he went to Greg with that marriage deal. Meeting Nate was throwing his plan off course, he was deviating from what he'd planned initially. And Nate wasn't even making it easy for him, he was acting like a hormonal teenager, Spade was trying to get through to him, at least maybe he was different from his father but he kept shutting him out and shutting down.

Worse, this stupid feeling he always got was beginning to mess with his head, it was not helping at all. The earlier he got it out of the way, the better it would be for both of them.

Maybe, just maybe if he did get married to Nate's sister then he'd stop feeling this way, this stupid attraction and excitement he was feeling for Nate, it would all go away if he got married to his sister. He'd stop thinking about him and stressing over him if he got what he'd always wanted.

He stood up, still trying to discreetly adjust his pants, the tightness was still there, even though he was thinking about something else, he couldn't completely erase the image of Nate from his mind.

With Matteo still standing there with that ridiculous robe around his body "Put a call through to Greg first thing in the morning, tell him in 48 hours, I'd be coming for what we agreed on" he muttered making Matteo crease his brows in question

"And what is that"? He asked, Spade had already started heading towards the door, without stopping he spoke

"His daughter" he muttered before opening the door and walking out of the penthouse.

Time to stop all the games he'd been playing with Nate, it would come to an end in 48 hours. He'd be married by then and he'd have no reason to deal with those brown, honey, lost eyes, or those unruly curls and that small tiny lips or that sweet fruity scent.

He sighed out clenching his jaw.

Uh oh, Spade's finally getting married to Su.

But what are his plans for Greg tho? 🤔🤔
