Summary
But even after hours of lazy reading, his thoughts hadn't changed. And the romances described on the soft parchment pages did nothing to soothe the desire simmering inside him. Every time he lifted his eyes from the book – just for a moment, to rest them – he found himself reliving the way they had touched hours before. Their bodies pressed together in that cramped tub, their breaths mingling, their hands...
He kicked off his braies and slid under the blankets.
With a hesitant, almost embarrassing sigh – as though he hadn't already done this hundreds of times, with Henry's image burned behind his eyelids and his name on his lips – he let his left hand drift between his thighs.Henry leaves for work early in the morning and Hans needs to find some way to spend his time alone, waiting for his squire to come back.

Summary
"I wish it were snow," Hans replied distractedly, watching the torrential rain pour past the barn's small, glassless window. He leaned his head back against the wooden wall and let his eyes fall half-shut. "I'd have enjoyed pelting you with snowballs like I was five years old again." He wasn't looking at him, but from the calm set of his face Henry suspected he was picturing that idyllic scene as if it were more memory than imagination.
Caught in a sudden storm, Henry and Hans take shelter in an abandoned barn. While waiting for the rain to stop falling, Henry brings up a subject that has been weighing on his heart for some time...

Summary
"You're a damn good actor," Henry told him. He kicked off his shoes, tossing them toward his own bed, then crawled over him, starting to unbotton Hans' golden doublet.
"And you're always indecently impatient," Hans chided. It was remarkable how clear and steady his voice had turned, considering that only seconds earlier he'd been pretending to sing along, utterly drunk, with his squire. "How is that you can't go five minutes without having my cock in hand?"
"I'm not the one who kept reaching under the table all evening, my lord."Hans and Henry are desperate for a moment of privacy – enough peace to explore their growing connection and finally cross the line neither of them has dared to step over yet. But the Devil's Den is the last place to find intimacy, especially when the entire Pack seems determined to interrupt them at every turn...
