family.”
Evan lowered his gaze. His voice left him in a hushed whisper as he muttered another, “thank you.” For how expressive he was with his music and on stage, Julian knew Evan always became uncomfortable when his true emotions began to show in front of anyone other than Jesse, though he had steadily adapted to it around them.
Jesse wrapped his arms around Evan and laid his head on Evan’s shoulder. “Thanks, guys. It means a lot to me, too.”
Julian brought his gaze to Jesse. “When’s it going to be?”
“Not this Wednesday, but the following one.”
Kenny’s eyes widened. “So soon?”
Jesse turned to him. “Yeah. Isn’t that awesome? Less time for you to wait.”
Kenny clamped his lips shut as if not sure how to reply.
Jesse stood and turned for the door. “Really, we just want to do it before we hit the road. Ev’s already got the advertising lined up and after he makes the call, it’ll be all over the place.”
Julian looked at Evan. “Then you’ve worked on this for a while?”
Evan shook his head. “Not really. I talked to the foundation a couple weeks ago and when I brought up the idea, they jumped on it, especially with the connections and promoting power I have. And with holding it here in Conquest’s hometown, that’ll bring in a lot of local money.”
Jesse took Evan’s hand as they walked toward the stage.
“Yeah, and Brandon’s going to hit up the theatre community.
He’s going to offer something and get some of the other big actors in town to join in.”
“What’s Brandon offering?” Julian asked.
“I don’t know yet. We’re going to talk about it when he gets here later.”

“He’s stopping by?”
“Yeah, we’re getting together for lunch.”
An internal sigh passed through Julian. Just what he needed to top the parade of beautiful men who didn’t want him. Of course, he didn’t know for certain that Morgan didn’t want him. He also didn’t know for certain Morgan was gay. When they met, he had been so busy trying to keep his cool, he hadn’t scrutinized him.
But with an ass like what Morgan had, it’d be one of the greatest injustices of the world if he wasn’t. Julian gave the thought a frustrated shove to the back of his mind. He needed to stop thinking about him. In less than twenty-four hours, it’d hit the point of obsessive.
Julian climbed the stairs to the stage, and as he rounded a stack of amps, stopped in mid-stride. Morgan stood at the keyboards with senior tech, Remmy Laurent, who had worked their last tour. Morgan had his back to him, but he still knew it was him.
A muffled groan sounded in Julian’s throat. How bad was it that after one day, he could already recognize the man by his ass?
Julian looked at Remmy, a cutie in his own right, with shaggy dark blond hair and youthful features that made him look as if he’d run away from home to follow a rock band. Remmy had a sweet personality, often quiet and a little shy, but Julian couldn’t think of anyone who knew the ins and outs of a high profile tour better.
Julian saw Jesse stop at the keyboards and hastened forward.
It was never good to leave Jesse’s mouth unattended.
“Is everything alright with the keyboards, Remmy?” Jesse asked.
The senior tech nodded. “Yeah, everything’s perfect. I was just showing Morgan how to set them up, do the programming, all that good stuff. He just joined us yesterday.”
Morgan offered his hand to Jesse. “It’s great to meet you, Mr.
Alexander.”
“You too, but don’t call me mister. You’ll have me feeling like there’s a second Kurt running around here and none of us want 28 S.J. Frost
that.”
Julian walked up as Morgan laughed at Jesse’s comment. He gazed at Morgan, his ears drinking in the husky timbre of his laugh, and felt entranced by his smile. He didn’t know how it was physically possible for his whole body to suddenly feel like mush while his cock hardened. Morgan was dressed more
