By now To two police officers, in Panama City Beach For the past ten days, he had stayed in this one area, nothis attacks there, in particular They only knew that he had to be stopped

Tucker walked into the Nightstick for the first time in several days It had been three days since the latest murder, and there were still no leads on the killer Just as frustrating was the fact he hadn’t been able to find anything on Gavin He seeain, and Tucker couldn’t even locate anyone who had even seen the etting his last na He assumed he was a tourist, and had siain was oddly painful, considering their brief acquaintance, but Tucker tried to shake it off and not think about it One of the hazards of living in a tourist toas ain in a few days Most of the time, Tucker found that to be a convenience, and not a proble a beer, he scanned the dimly lit interior The typical croas in the roo animatedly at the few tables scattered around the dance floor, and others crowding the bar, trying to get the waiter’s attention No sign of Gavin, or anyone else that looked interesting, either Tucker noticed oneit He was dark-haired and average-sized, his clothes upscale and a little formal for the beach crowd that normally packed this place He was handso at Tucker and raised his glass to hi back Tucker nodded at him, but turned back toward the bar, not in theabout the guy gave him a distinct chill

Loud voices behind hiave a start of surprise to see Gavin co around the shoulders of one of thehe’d said All three h to Tucker, Gavin stood out frolanced up and saw Tucker, but didn’t remove his arm The three of them went over to an e, and all three of them looked over at hi

E by Gavin’s apparent indifference, Tucker turned around and took another sip of his beer, hating the butterflies that were going crazy inside his stoht It wasn’t his idea of a good tiuys, both of ere al his beer, he started to push up fro, half-dreading it would be Gavin, he turned instead to find a guy he knew na onto the stool next to hi serious between thelad to see him It made him feel a little less of an idiot to have soht then, and helped take his mind off the table behind him

"How have you been, Tuck ? Haven’t seen you around the club in Ft Walton lately," Chase said softly, running his hand up Tucker’s sleeve Chase was ht to be his "type" A real cutie, he was shorter than Tucker, slim, with an adorable little face that always see Chase and Tucker had met at a bar named Dirty Joe’s, a bar in the nearby town of Ft Walton that attracted a mildly BDSM crowd on the weekends

Tucker actually preferred to go out of tohen he was looking for a hook-up Even though Panama City attracted a steady influx of tourists, it was still a sh Ft Walton was over an hour’s drive away, Tucker never wanted to chance running into someone he knew froht with Gavin had been a serious aberration, and look how that had turned out

Chase was pretty, but he was more into the S&M lifestyle than Tucker would ever be, and he really wanted a full-ti to happen He had no desire to settle doith anyone yet, but Chase was cute and sexy and fit the bill in the meantime

"No, I haven’t been over to Ft Walton in al raze Chase’s cheek "You’re looking good tonight"

Chase preened a little and leaned into his hand, turning his head toward Tucker’s palm to drop a soft kiss in it "Want to dance, Tuck?" he asked seductively and Tucker s no one he knew except for, of course, Gavin Still, it was fairly early, and he ht have refused if Gavin hadn’t still had his aruys at his table Fuck him Let hio" He slid off the stool and took Chase by the hand, leading hi to let his mind wander back to the last time he was on this floor and what had happened after that, he pulled Chase into his ar, One More Night, playing on the juke box

Chase tucked his head into Tucker’s neck and pressed his groin tightly against hi one aran to play around Tucker’s belt buckle and the top button on his jeans Tucker put his hand over Chase’s, but Chase laughed softly and stuck his tongue inside Tucker’s ear, causing a shiver to run down Tucker’s back He dropped his hand and let Chase dip down inside his pants, his fingers ski over the head of Tucker’s cock Why the fuck not? Two could play Gavin’s ga hand seized Tucker’s neck frohly back into a solid chest, as another hard hand snaked around his waist to hold him in place Chase stu Tucker tightly to hi, honey," Gavin said "Find soht This one’sin concern at Tucker, but obviously not wanting to cross the big angry ed, Tucker tried to wrench himself out of Gavin’s arms, but he couldn’t move The hand on his neck had slipped to his throat, and as it tightened, Tucker heard a low voice growling in his ear "Trustin the back room" The hands around his throat and waist fell away, and he felt a sharp push in his back "March"

In an agony of e nearby with hisat them Tucker had always played a somewhat dopush on Tucker’s back got hi, and he walked stiffly to the curtain that led to the back rooer overcame him completely and he jabbed his elbow sharply into Gavin’s stoly painful sounding little oof before grabbing Tucker and sla him back into the wall by the door Gavin took Tucker’s balls in a punishing grip

"Darowled in his ear "What the hell do you think you’re doing?"
