Summary
“Are you telling me that you’ve been forcing yourself to have sex with me when you didn’t want to?” Caleb’s voice is soft, yet paradoxically echoes around the space as if the salon has become a mausoleum.
Essek shifts about uncomfortably. “Well—yes, I suppose that is a way to describe it.”

Summary
Four months ago, Essek made Caleb a promise to never force himself to have sex simply to please him. Up to now, it's been an easy promise to keep.

Summary
"I'm not offering to participate, if that's what you mean," Essek said. "But…" What exactly was he offering? Just to be in the room? To watch? That felt too much like voyeurism, which wasn't what he'd meant to offer. "I'd just like to be with you. Hold you, maybe. While you... take care of things."
From the hitch in Caleb's breath and the widening of his eyes, Essek knew he'd hit on a good idea. "You… you would be comfortable with that?"
***
Essek's libido was an annoyingly unreliable thing. Caleb, on the other hand, was pretty much always open to sex. Making that disparity work was not a simple matter.
