asked.”
    “Okay. I’m asking now. Tell me about Raven Stone.”
    “Why? You must know everything already,” Raven snapped.
    “No. Only that you were adopted by a local sheriff when you were three years old. The file contained no information of you before that time.” Ghazi reached out for Raven, but the man pulled back.
    “Well, then we’re pretty even on that score, because I don’t remember anything before that. I was told my biological mother was an alcoholic. Someone saw me in a bar, crying while my mother was passed out on the table next to me. They called the sheriff, my adoptive dad, and he came to my rescue. The judge gave my mom a choice, get sober or lose custody.” Raven shrugged. “Guess I wasn’t worth a bottle of booze to her.”
    Ghazi swallowed around the lump of emotion that threatened to overwhelm him. He once again reached out to Raven. “She didn’t deserve you.”
    Raven chuckled. “Yeah, well when my dad was killed in the line of duty, I rebelled against everything and everyone. I started searching, trying to find the woman who had given birth to me.”
    “Did you find her?” Ghazi ran his hand in circles over Raven’s thigh.
    “Yeah, eventually. She was still a drunk, and goddammit, she still didn’t want anything to do with me. But at least I learned my last name had once been Black Wing.” Raven gestured to his back. “I was determined to carry her betrayal with me so I had the tattoo done.”
    Ghazi opened his arms. “Please let me hold you?”
    Raven stared down at Ghazi. “I don’t need your pity. I’ve come to terms with who I am.”
    “Pity and compassion are not the same thing. I wouldn’t feel the need to comfort you if I didn’t care.”

    Raven eventually settled against Ghazi’s chest. Ghazi wrapped his arms around the man and kissed the top of Raven’s head. “Can I hold you, like this, for the rest of the night?”
    Raven nodded but said nothing.
    Ghazi had no idea what the following days would bring, but at least, for the moment, he felt content with the direction his life was taking.

Chapter Three

    Raven woke a few hours later with Ghazi wrapped around him. He began grinding his ass against Ghazi’s cock. Although Ghazi was still asleep, his cock began to fill. The conversation several hours earlier had been a big wakeup call for Raven. It wasn’t until he laid out his parentage to Ghazi that he realised the two of them could never have more than sex between them.
    Raven had spent his entire adult life trying to find a rich husband to take care of him, and when he’d finally found the man he really wanted, he realised he didn’t deserve him.
    Ghazi wasn’t an ordinary rich businessman. He was the King of Jurru. The man could probably trace his lineage back a thousand years.
    Ghazi’s hand slid from Raven’s hip down to encircle his cock. “Good morning,” he said before kissing one of the tattoos on Raven’s back.
    Whether Ghazi’s earlier inability to get hard had been caused by fatigue or stress, the cock currently sliding against Raven’s ass was definitely ready to play. The two of them moved together like they’d been lovers for years, further confusing Raven. How could he feel so comfortable with someone he knew he couldn’t have a future with?
    Ghazi wrapped his available arm around Raven’s upper chest as he bit the side of Raven’s neck. “I’ve wanted this since the day I first set eyes on you.”
    Raven grinned, thinking of their first meeting. He had been sent to spy on Ghazi by Sheik Ali, who thought Ghazi was the person behind the assassination attempts. “I doubt that. I don’t remember you being too happy about getting a new chauffer.”
    Ghazi bit Raven harder. “I wasn’t happy because the minute I looked into those big brown eyes of yours I could think of nothing else but fucking you. I was still in the closet, and I knew one time with you would
