He can handle Kelly. He has no problem handling Kelly--never had until Odin dropped him and he let that anger and desperation for the drugs take him away. That's what got him here, too, half in a straight jacket and saying things he wasn't even sure he meant.

Liam kisses him and it's all worth it, all doubts completely gone as Liam kisses with such passionate, such fire and Mike doesn't bother holding back the moan. He's been stroked and fucked and has come multiple times under Liam's reign, but nothing compares to that.

And it's different than before, is Mike's reasoning, bringing his other hand around to touch Liam's back. He needs to deepen the kiss, he needs to make sure Liam knows how much he loves it. This is all he wanted.

Strange, how a simple kiss can be as intoxicating as drugs. Liam knew what he was doing.
