Living in Vegas was a dream for many. There were so many people who often dream of spending some time there, but for Blake, it wasn’t anything less than a living hell. Blake had moved from his apartment on one of the upscale areas to a much smaller apartment in a somewhat affordable locality.
Life didn’t look all that jazzy anymore after he had quit his last job, following a dispute at the workplace. It was often hard to get a job and Blake had realized his mistake two months after quitting the old job. He had filled in numerous applications, but not one among them had converted. He had lost his confidence and debated moving to another city because Vegas seemed to have lost the jazz for him.
The cost of living in Vegas was terribly high and even if he stopped frequenting at the casinos and the bars, he still had to work really hard to make sure that he didn’t eat into every single penny of his hard earned savings.
Blake Rogers was 29 years old, marketing graduate and gay. He had lost three very good opportunities because of being homosexual.
“Damn, the world still needs to catch up. I don’t get it why being a gay could cost me my job. It has nothing to do with my efficiency,” Blake said to himself to vent out his frustration. He knew very well that his rejection letter came because of his sexual orientation.
Blake was still furious when he got a call from Jack. Jack was leaving Vegas and he wanted to meet Blake before bidding a goodbye to the city. Even though Blake wasn’t really in a mood to meet or converse, but he owed it to Jack. Jack had been one of his closest buddies in the city and they had some great time together. He was one of those friends who never judged Blake for being gay.
They agreed to meet at the café near his office during the lunch hours. Blake dressed casually and headed out. As he waited patiently at the café for Jack to arrive, he could see his whole life crashing apart. It would be so easy to lose everything that he had taken so long to build. He really needed to get a grip on his life and make it work.
As he was still busy with his thoughts, he felt a tap on his shoulder he turned around to see Jack. It had been nearly two months since they had met and Jack looked handsome as ever.
“Why are you leaving Vegas man? As it is the city sucks now, without you, what am I going to do?” Blake said.
“I know man. I got a better job opportunity in Kentucky. Also, it is closer to Sarah as she works at a firm there. The long distance thing sucks real hard. She asked if I could shift and this seemed like a good job opportunity.”
“I am happy for you man. You and Sarah look good together.”
“What is wrong with you? Where has all your energy gone?”
“Oh, Jack! You know how I had a major argument at my last job. I left them but ever since I have been turned down almost everywhere. Life is such a struggle. The worst thing is I was one of the topmost qualified candidates at three jobs. They turned me down because I am gay. Can you even believe that?”
Jack could feel the frustration level which Blake had.
“Damn it, Blake, you were going through all this shit and you are telling me about it now? Like, do I even exist for you?”
Blake felt bad for not relying much on his friend; he knew he could have used Jack for some comfort.
“I am sorry dude. I was just in a terrible mood.”
“Blake, you don’t get it! My office has a vacancy. I am leaving the job and they still haven’t found someone to fill in the position. More so, you know what! You are not going to be judged either because Austin White, the CEO of the firm is rumored to be gay.”
Blake couldn’t believe his luck. He knew what Jack did and he knew that it was in the same niche. Jack had often called him for ideas and they had a great time discussing them.
“Are you serious Jack? Dude, you could be my savior. Could you kick some reference in for me?”
“Oh definitely. You didn’t have to ask. I would love to pitch in a reference. I have to leave tomorrow evening. I will talk to Austin today itself and get an interview scheduled for you. He is a badass, but he is desperately looking for someone to fill in my place.”
Blake heaved a sigh of relief as he was delighted to spot a golden ray of hope. Maybe, not everything was going to sink, after all, he mused and prayed that this time, his life worked out. He was tired of too many rejection letters.
They spent the lunch discussing the different events. Their life and where they hoped to be in times to come. After spending some quality time together. Jack headed to his office promising to talk to Austin and Blake went back home, feeling just a little better.
Blake couldn't believe his own ears. Jack had called him and told him that Austin had agreed to interview him the same day. He was supposed to turn up for his interview by 3 PM. Blake looked at his watch and saw that he still had a couple of hours.
He dressed in his deep gray suit and collected all his documents. He had a lot of hopes for this job and he really wished that things turned out well. He was literally on the verge of giving up. This job might help him get his life on track yet again. He felt a wave of positivity in him.
As he exited his apartment, he slipped in a quick prayer, hoping desperately to make the cut. He reached the office well before 3 PM and waited patiently in the lobby.
When his name was finally called, he checked his reflection in the mirror one last time and headed inside.
Austin White had the perfect features. He looked like the best manifestation of Greek god. With his smoky green eyes and the handsome physique, Blake couldn’t help but marvel at Austin’s perfection.
“Holy smoking hot,” he said and then gasped realizing his own mistake.
Austin took one look at Blake and he smiled when he saw the effect he had on him. Normally, this was the kind of thing which would put him off because he was a thorough professional, but there was something about Blake’s brown eyes that called out to him. Blake had a great body and he could see his perfect face, well-sculpted chest and his charming persona.
Most of all, his brown eyes, though ordinary spoke out to him. Austin could find himself falling for those brown eyes as it looked like they were made exclusively for Blake. He experienced raw attraction at the first sight and it was unlike anything he had ever felt before. Jack had put in his recommendation and added the fact that Blake was gay. Maybe, this extra knowledge had sparked Austin’s interest and he checked out Blake too.
“Quite hot yourself, Mr. Blake,” Austin said and gestured him to take a seat.
The interview was very short and Blake felt that he had messed it but before he left, Austin gave him his offer letter. He couldn’t believe his luck and the salary was huge, even better than his last job. There was just one clause which looked tricky. The work hours weren’t fixed. He might have to overwork if the need be, but Austin promised to compensate him for the extra workload.
Blake was not in a position to say no and he decided to go with it.
“When do I join Austin?”
“Now.”
Blake smiled as he was amazed at the change in his fortune and luck, so quickly. He nodded and went to thank Jack. Blake was excited to get started and he knew Jack deserved all the gratitude and thanks.

Three weeks later.
It’s been three weeks since Blake had been working at the office and although he was quite satisfied with the job, the workload seemed quite a lot. Austin had kept him as his own marketing assistant and he needed to work closely with him. Every time they would meet in the morning, he would stare at Austin. Austin was one of those guys who would hog limelight wherever he went.
Despite the fact that he was gay, girls would often throw themselves at him. He had one of those chiseled looks which could put anyone to shame. Blake had often caught Austin looking at him with eyes that seemed to speak of lust. He was sure that it was all a figment of his imagination because how was it even possible.
Austin was the boss, the billionaire who was a force to be reckoned within the business industry. He had some powerful connections and knew some of the top names. Of course, he could have anyone he wanted and Blake wondered why he would ever be interested in anyone like him.
It was Friday evening and Blake was really tired. He looked at his watch and found that it was half-past six. His shift was supposed to end at 6. He just didn't have any more energy in him. He thought of asking Austin to give him a break as he simply wanted to go back home, unwind and relax.
“Hey! I was wondering if I could go back home. I would finish this report and email it to you in the first hour of office on Monday morning. How does that sound, Austin?”
“Ah! Sorry Blake. You can get this done on Monday but I have a business event tonight. I want you to go with me as there are some important matters to be discussed.”
“Geez! It is half past six. I really want to go home, Austin.”
“Don’t worry Blake. I will pay you for the extra work.”
“Damn it, it is not always about the pay Austin. You need to know that there exists a life beyond work. I am tired of spending all my time here. I used to have a life. I know I am paid ridiculously well, but sometimes I just don’t feel like I am living anymore.”
“Calm the fuck down Blake.”
“No Austin. I have had enough. I am having a meltdown here. Don’t you know I haven’t had one complete weekend to myself? It is either your charity event or your fancy parties or an urgent business meeting. I have worked for you every bloody Saturday. When people are swinging their ass in the gay pub, I am here on those umpteen meetings where I am not even needed. Do you know why? Because bloody Austin has the bucks and he can afford to pay.”
“Remember Blake your contract had it mentioned. I hired you on a short notice and I made sure you knew the details. Why are you so butt-hurt now?”
“Yeah I know I made a mistake. I am so fucked up man. I want to go home. I want to cut myself a break but if you have to afford to live in Vegas, you need to sell your body and soul to your work.”
“Is it so bad being stuck with me, Blake? I thought you enjoyed my company!”
“Oh don’t get that wrong Austin. I do enjoy it. You are not oblivious to the fact that everyone adores you. You are so handsome that it feels like it should be a crime to look so good, but, then does it even matter. I want to be close to you, but I know we are not going to be a thing ever. You are gay but girls in the elevator throw themselves on you. Do I enjoy your company? Why not! It sucks so hard to know you are the only gay out here and women worship you and you enjoy it!”
Blake realized that in the heat of the moment, he had said way too much than what he should. He felt really sorry and embarrassed. It was just that the situation had got much tensed and he couldn't keep his feelings in.
“I am sorry Austin. That was out of line. I mean, it didn’t come out right. I apologize for –“
Austin cut him off as he came closer and kissed Blake.
Blake didn’t expect this reaction. He was too stunned to speak. He had thought that Austin would lose his cool, fire him maybe or even rebuke him, but holy shit he was being kissed by the man who had kept him up late night with some smoking hot fantasy. He couldn’t believe what was happening.
“Don’t like me kissing you?” Austin asked, breaking the kiss because Blake was so shocked by what had happened that he forgot to part his lips.
“Oh no. Not like that. I mean of course. I was just not sure. I mean I am sure of the kiss.”
“Damn,” he said and then kissed Austin. He parted his lips immediately and they explored the insides of their mouth. Austin's tongue roamed wildly in his mouth and they both met stroke for stroke. Their bodies were burning hot with passion and both Blake and Austin were already hard.
The need to fuck was really strong for both of them.
“I have wanted you since the day you came to my office swinging that hot ass of yours,” Austin said.
Blake couldn’t believe what he heard. He was still reeling from the shock of the kiss and at the top of it, this statement took him aback.
“I never thought you considered me hot.”
“Oh do you even know Blake why I overloaded you with so much work? I wanted to keep you close, I craved for you. I didn’t know how to approach you. Guess I was a little nervous. I was obsessed with you. I have been fantasizing of fucking you ever since the day my eyes first saw you. Man, you are so hot. I have never seen someone like you. I am sorry you were so frustrated but I just wanted you to be close.”
Blake couldn’t believe his own ears. This was a completely new twist. Could this even happen? Austin, the millionaire was crazy for Blake.
“Oh man, you could have given me some signs. Some hint man. I have been infatuated with you too. I mean, who won’t! You have everything – looks, money, power, personality!”
“But, all I need is you, your dick and that ass, Blake. I want to fuck you - wild, hot and long.”
Blake smiled and he could see how the rest of the evening would go.
“What about the event we were supposed to go to?”
“Oh don’t worry about that. I will cancel it. That was just an excuse to keep you near.”
Somehow, it sounded very romantic now. Just a few moments ago, Blake was fuming because of the event, but after knowing the truth, Blake could feel himself blushing.
“Horny, eh?” Blake asked.
Austin nodded and they both decided to leave so they could have the hottest sex the whole night.
“Come to my place at 8 PM sharp. I want to fuck you all night long,” Austin said and winked at him.
Blake nodded and went back home. He was the happiest he had ever been. There was no way things could have gone any better. Not only did he have a well-paying job, but Austin White was going to fuck him and life just got a whole lot better for him.
