The Birthday Gift
by

Emory Vargas

Jake's birthday gift itched.

More specifically, the polyester and elastic fibers gripped Dan's balls in a vise. Next time he ordered pink panties online he was buying them in men's sizes, and he was splurging on satin.

Because he was definitely buying more. Itch or not, Dan’ cock jutted proudly, dark beneath the hot pink lace. He tapped his fingers along the length of it, just a tease. Dan was disciplined enough to deny himself the urge to grip his shaft and slide his palm along the rough fabric to see if it burned.

That was for Jake only. That was Jake’s gift. That, and the shiny black plug nudged between his cheeks. He clenched his ass to feel all seven inches of it. He swayed his hips and a jolt of pleasure ran up his spine. A low groan escaped him and he looked out the window again, desperate to see Jake’s car pulling into the driveway. He knew his husband’s routine by heart. Even on his birthday, Jake would go to crossfit and stop by the country club on the way back to steam in the sauna. He’d scrub his body in the shower and slather on unscented lotion until his black skin gleamed.

And now? Now he’d pull up and walk in, damp and clean, and he’d find Dan in their playroom, hard and hurting with want. Slick and stretched. And wrapped in a lovely pink surprise.

We volunteer to help unwrap Dan! Let Emory know what you thought of her ficlet! BMB Reviews thanks her for partying with the unicorns!

Review: Rock Rod Studios Presents: Alex Undone by Emory Vargas

Alex's first 'gay for pay' porn job results in much more than a paycheck. After having his mind (and more) blown by a professional performer, he shacks up with the studio's hot, tattooed administrative assistant.

Peter is flirtatious and edgier than anyone Alex has ever met, and he's deep in a lifestyle Alex has never imagined. His habit of bringing inexperienced boys home for a rough tumble grinds to a halt when Alex wants more than a meaningless lay.

Once Alex has a taste of sexual freedom, he might be gay to stay.

"Touching a penis? Yes. That's in the contract."
"I didn't mean-"
"You did. That's what all the straight guys are worried about. First, do they have to touch a penis? Second, any butt stuff? Because they'd really prefer to not do the butt stuff."

I've read three books by this author in a matter of months. Granted, they were short but I don't normally do that, unless you're Chuck Tingle or Rob Colton. Sometimes, I binge read if the authors words hit me just right. Emory Vargas? She's got it. I'm reading it and paying attention. Remember that name, okay?

"Rock Rod Studios Presents: Alex Undone". First off, how awesome is the porn studio name? And secondly, I'm hoping by the title there is more to come from Rock Rod Studios because this short is seriously one of the funniest things I've read. I laughed hard, continuously and extremely loud. Oh the quotes...the fucking quotes I have.

"Miranda wants Andre to rim you. Is that okay?"
"What is...is that?" Alex thinks about basketball.  He played soccer in high school and he's kind of embarrassed about how little he knows the sport. Rim. Rim shot. Lay up? Free throw?
"It's where he licks your asshole...But most guys get into it after a little while...It feels nice, I promise."
So.
Not basketball.

This story is about broke college student Alex. He's "straight" but for $500, he'll participate in a gay porn movie. The story starts with him clutching his bill of health from his college clinic and meeting the studio's hunky, alt-guy administrative assistant, Peter. Peter is just my type, slick talking, tattooed, with thick framed glasses and flirtatious.

"Don't pass out...If you live, drop by and get my number." 
"Why?" 
"In case you don't get a chance to do everything you want."

He tries to ease nervous straight boy's panic. But I'm glad it only worked for a little bit because being in Alex's head was fun. Hella fun. He is a gay virgin in every sense. Alex knows nothing about the joys of gay sex...hell you saw the rim job quote. Alex is cute and clueless. Reading his deflowering with another professional porn actor made the scene even better. (There isn't any penetrative sex in this book and there is a major sex scene with someone other than the MC) Alex learns something about himself from his acting debut. I don't know if he caught it by the end of the story. But Peter the administrative assistant does!

"Baby, you are so wet," Andre says, his voice rough. Alex doesn't care if he's acting or not. He's probably acting. He's a professional. And it's awesome that he's a professional because he is professionally fucking good at rim ups or whatever this is called. He should be given medals or a title. 

Give me a minute...

Peter is a submissive. He sees the same quality in a certain someone. *groans* Did I mention he's a big guy? *quelts* 

"Submission is a deeply personal, psychological process. It's not just doing what you're told. It's meditative. It's a...total release of the self."

 I loved the way Ms. Vargas writes BDSM themes and doesn't make it so overt or cliche. Third story where it's not too gimmicky like a lot of the popular BDSM where the kink is lame. If you cringe when you see BDSM attached to a story, don't fret. There is not BDSM practiced in this story. Just discussed.  

"Cockslut" was thrown around. *grunts* After that, I was so ready for Alex to get "his ass ramrodded". I swear my wolf razor teeth grew out of my damn head because I was going to read about virgin ass getting split and plowed. 

This was me. This is what I turn into when cockslut or manpussy is mentioned. Yum!

I was fucking READY! But...no butt virgins were taken in this short. 

Alex! Alex actually uses his head! (The one upstairs) He's been pretty clueless and homeboy proves the elevator does go all the way upstairs! Loved that.

It was interesting to get a glimpse of Peter, the real one. I enjoyed his flirting and his needy bottom boy ways that came out to play for a few minutes. But when we learn he has some issues that he seeks help with and still wants to start something with Alex, sees the potential there...why it makes this bi-curious vs. gay submissive erotica something substantial.

Great mix of humor and erotica in a bite sized nugget! The story ends HFN-ish. But there are so many more stories that can be produced from this little story. I was so impressed, I added it to my 2015 favorites shelf. 21 pages...hilarious. Definitely my kinda humor.

"Most guys don't submit to face-fucking like that."
"I wasn't submitting."
"You were. It's not a bad thing. The way you had your eyes closed, and you looked so happy. You looked like you were accepting Jesus into your life."
[...] but now he's picturing Jesus Christ with a huge cock and next time he gets dragged to church on Christmas Eve it's going to be really awkward.

C'mon...you know you want to read to this book. 

Highly recommended. (I'll eagerly await more!)
