Sweetening the Deal

David noticed Tony was getting impatient. Despite having his ankles and wrists bound, he was still moving about in his kneeling position. He couldn’t say anything, on account of the gag in his mouth. Tony didn’t know it, but Robert was typically fashionably late, he would likely be here any minute now. But David was more than happy with that because Tony always got extra eager when he was a little nervous like this, and that was exactly what they needed right now if they wanted this deal to go through.

Finally, he heard the sound of cars pulling up outside the warehouse. It was easy to hear them since at this late hour there would have been no one else around. David walked away from Tony and went to the door upon hearing the knock against the metal. Robert stood there, flanked by his usual level of security.

“Robert, my friend. How are you?” David greeted him, and Robert rubbed his hands together. “Eager to start. What’s this so-called new offer you’re giving me?”

“I’m not budging on the price. I’ve lowered it enough.” David explained as he invited Robert into the warehouse, instructing his guards to stand outside, along with David’s own crew. “But… I have a little something extra for you. Consider it a bonus.”

David had a shipment of AK-47s and was offering them to Robert for ten million dollars. They’d negotiated many times in the past, but this was a little higher than usual, given the extra work he’d had to take to obtain them this time. Robert hadn’t been very happy with that, and David hadn’t wanted to risk losing the deal or Robert’s loyalty to his business dealings completely.

So, he’d figured a different kind of incentive might do the trick here.

“Ah, I see,” Robert said, as he saw Tony. He was surprised, but pleasantly so, and there was a grin on his face as he got close to take a better look at him. “Now I know why you requested those tests.”

“Can I take a look at them?” David asked, and Robert huffed. “They’re clean, David. You should expect better of me. But fine.” He fished them from his briefcase and David took a moment to read them carefully, confirming the tests were all negative, but also that the documentation looked legitimate. He’d recommended the doctor for Robert to see, someone he knew and trusted, so he knew what he was looking for.

“Go ahead. Have a look.” David offered once he was satisfied, discarding the papers to the floor.

Robert took a moment to look Tony up and down, walking in a small circle around him. He asked him to lift up so he could slap his ass hard enough to break blood vessels. Tony made a small noise that Robert had to admit was very satisfying. He wouldn’t show it, though. Not when he hadn’t agreed to anything yet. Finally, he took Tony by surprise and grabbed him by the chin, staring him down.

“Like what you see?” David asked.

“I don't know if he's worth it. He's… used goods.” Robert tutted like he was speaking about a second-hand car.

“He's experienced.” David countered.

Robert took a moment to contemplate it, staring into the docile eyes of the man as he looked up at him. “Do I get to sample him before agreeing?”

“Of course,” David said, having expected Robert to not fully commit. “But I’m sure you’ll be more than satisfied with my offer.”

He nodded, then turned back to Tony. “I know I'm risking spoiling the whole thing with this, but I need to know you’re not being forced. Do you want this?” He asked. He knew David, he doubted he’d ever do something like that, but he had to be sure.

The man was gagged, but he could still move his head, and he nodded enthusiastically. His pupils were dilated in a way that showed his eagerness to serve, and Robert knew undoubtedly this man was here completely of his own volition. It was always much better this way.

“Alright. Still, we can stop at any time.” Robert explained stiffly, but not without genuine assurance. That was uncharacteristic of him, David noted. “I appreciate that, Robert.”

“Good, because I'm not breaking character again.” Robert was quick to say, as though acting anything less than cold and authoritative felt unnatural to him.

“Let's get started.” David then said, removing the gag from Tony’s mouth.

Robert wasted no time and lowered his jeans and underwear to his knees, then stood there expectantly, watching as Tony crawled towards him then started sucking at his tip with very deliberate movements, eyes closed in concentration. Robert had to admit seeing him begin his work did more for him than he wanted to admit. He was barely touching him for God’s sake. David had good taste; Robert couldn’t deny that. However, he wasn’t going to act satisfied right away.

“How much does he usually take?” Robert asked, ready to be able to counter whatever David answered. But, to his surprise, David simply smiled. “Bigger than you, Robert. Not to worry. Tony will do whatever you ask him to. His only purpose right now is to satisfy you.”

Tony built up slowly, taking more and more of him with every movement, much faster than Robert expected him to, and he was impressed by him. Still, he remembered David’s words and had no intention of making this an easy deal for him. He wanted to see what Tony could do. Robert placed a hand on the back of his head as he continued his bobbing motion, just resting there at first. But when his mouth took more of him, Robert pulled him in one swift move and held him in place. Tony gagged with slight surprise but did not cease his actions, a muffled sound of pleasure escaping him.

David seemed a little concerned by how long he was keeping him there, but he wasn’t going to stop this until Tony had enough and indicated as such.

Robert was struggling now to hide his arousal, and he didn’t want to let that interfere with the deal. So, he released his grip and allowed Tony to retreat. “Very good.” He praised, as Tony took a chance to breathe. Robert noticed Tony’s muscles clench as he said that.

“So?” David said, and Robert reminded himself that he couldn’t act too happy here. “He's… acceptable.”

“Do we have a deal?” David asked.

Robert pretended to think about it for a moment – as if he hadn’t made up his mind yet and could walk away from that inviting offer. “Well, if you were willing to drop to nine-”

Tony retreated at those words and David leaned down to undo his restraints. “Oh, alright.” He conceded, urgency in his voice. They turned to him.

Robert had expected David to respond, but to both of their surprise, it was Tony who spoke. “I want to hear you say it, Robert.” He said, and the complete change in his demeanour, the slightly commanding tone in his voice and the way his eyes were fixed on Robert made him shiver. He took a deep breath and reminded himself he had to be in control here, couldn’t show just how desperate he really was.

“I’ll pay you the ten million. Happy?” There was something in his voice that Robert knew sounded too much like a plea, and he hoped they hadn’t noticed.

They turned to each other for a second. David then nodded with the smug smile of someone who’d gotten their way. “Very much.”

Tony crawled back towards him then, and the moment his hands were wrapping around Robert’s legs his whole body trembled in anticipation. “Don’t misunderstand me, I still think the price is too high,” Robert felt the need to point out, not wanting them to think they’d won, “so, if you don’t mind, I’m going to get my money’s worth.”

Tony just smirked at him. “Do your worst.” He dared him. Robert didn’t like how cocky his toy was getting, so he grabbed him and pulled him in again. Tony was caught slightly off-guard but soon found his rhythm again.

Robert noticed he hadn’t lost a shred of his intensity from before, even now that he’d agreed to the service. It hadn’t just been to convince him; it had been a genuine representation of what he could expect. Excellent work ethic.

“Look at me.” Robert commanded, and Tony obliged immediately, any semblance of command gone from his eyes, and that sweet, pliable look there made Robert’s hand tug on his hair.

He wondered how far the man might go if ordered, how much he could push David by making good use of his toy.

A part of Robert wanted to find out if there was a limit, a line he could cross that would make David step in to stop him. He started thinking about all the possibilities, all the things he could do to the man on his knees for him, but then he reconsidered. This was enjoyable enough as it was, he would not risk getting either of them angry on purpose.

No, Robert decided to simply relax and let Tony do his job. He knew why he kept trying to distract himself here; the more he focused on the sensation of Tony’s mouth on him, the sooner this was going to be over and he didn’t want that.

Tony was trying hard to keep his eyes on him, clearly aware that Robert had not yet told him he could look away, but he also noticed how he'd quickly look behind him at David.

He had only just met Tony, yet he already envied the relationship he and David had. It was clear from the way David looked at them both that he was deeply protective of him, yet not possessive in an unhealthy way, and despite their deal, Robert could tell that wasn’t their usual dynamic; no, he was willing to bet that David saw Tony as an equal, and he briefly wondered how David would take care of Tony once he left them.

Robert let his mind wander for a while. He had a man he owned too. To pay off his debt Arman had proved to be willing to do a lot, things he thought were beneath him, things he hated. Perhaps he could take a page out of David’s book and use Arman for business and pleasure. Arman was one of the most attractive men Robert had ever met in his life, he knew that even reluctant and inexperienced, he would make for a very desirable temptation.

The threat of bringing in Nadia in his place would keep Arman docile and obedient, but Robert would make sure he wouldn't hate the entire experience, he would make him enjoy himself if needed.

But it wouldn't be any close to this, Robert realised. No, the way Tony submitted to David was special because it was willing. Whatever Robert could make Arman do, it would never get close to what David and Tony had. And he accepted that. It didn’t matter right now; it was clear that Tony was only on loan to him. But now he wanted to see how long he could distract his toy from his rightful owner.

Robert commanded Tony to stop, and he pulled away slowly like he still wanted to make every second count. But he didn’t want him to think that he could slack off. Tony sat there, looking up, waiting for someone to tell him what to do, and Robert slapped him across the face, hard. David folded his arms.

“I told you to look at me.” Robert reminded him. “Your only purpose right now is to serve me. David can use you at any time but you have a job tonight and that’s for you to suck me off until I decide I’m through with you. Understand?”

“Yes, sir.” He rasped, before opening his mouth and encasing Robert’s cock once more.

“You’re close, aren’t you, Robert?” David asked after a beat with a smirk. “You always get antsy when you’re about to come.”

Unfortunately, David was right. Robert didn’t need to say anything, and David just chuckled before moving closer to them. David rested his hands on Tony's shoulder, and massaged the back of his neck for a moment, then Tony closed his eyes and hummed around him, his lips curving up slightly into a smile.

Then David grabbed Tony's hair in a fist roughly to suspend him in place, looking up to meet Robert's eyes and nodding as to give him the go-ahead, and Robert started thrusting into Tony harder, David moving Tony's head back and forth in rhythm with Robert's thrusts.

It didn't take long for Robert to climax, and he came into Tony's mouth with a louder moan than he expected, making his cheeks redden a little. He didn’t want David to think he was easy.

As soon as David let go of him, Tony pushed his head back and spit his come on the ground. Robert didn't mind, but he wondered if he swallowed David's.

Tony panted for a moment but not with total exhaustion. Robert had to admit he was impressed. He didn’t doubt Tony might be ready for another round the second he was told. And, he was soon proven right because David said Tony’s name, and he was quick to crawl back over to him like an obedient dog, not daring to stand or do anything until he was told. It appeared David had enjoyed watching him, as he was also hard now, and working to unzip his pants. Tony waited patiently, and Robert was intrigued to see the way that Tony immediately started working at David with his mouth the way he had worked at him. He’d been well-fucked, and yet, he was giving David his all, like no matter what he’d done with anybody else, he always served David without question.

David met his eyes smugly, his hand resting on the back of Tony’s head. He didn’t need to say anything. He understood very clearly now what kind of relationship they had. Tony belonged to David, and nobody else. David might offer him up or demonstrate him but Tony was loyal to him in a way that couldn’t be beaten. Robert could also see the subtle differences in the way Tony was doing this, his hand curved around David’s hip to steady himself, the slower, more erotic motions, unlike the very purposeful way he’d blown him.

Robert heard soft whimpers and moans coming from Tony, noises he hadn’t heard when he’d served him before.

“So needy.” David purred, tugging him closer, before looking back up at him. “I might have let you have your fun with him, Robert, but at the end of the day, he’s mine, and I’m not letting you forget that.”

He could see that, very clearly. Tony took his time pleasuring David, working at the pace that he commanded him, too. Nothing could break Tony’s loyalty. Robert was certain that quality applied to other aspects of his life. He had to admit he was a little jealous he didn’t have a second-in-command as dedicated as Tony was to David.

David’s breathing shortened up, and he let out a long sigh as he finished in Tony’s mouth. Tony swallowed every last drop, taking his time to clean David up with soft laps of his tongue, as though grateful. Well, it seemed Robert could now answer that question.

“Up.” David ordered, and Tony came to his feet. David kissed him, tracing his lips with his tongue. Robert could see Tony was rock-hard through his tight pants and it seemed David was going to address that, based on how his fingers were working at Tony’s zipper. Robert heard David mutter praise to Tony.

“Wait,” Robert said, slightly ashamed to admit to this. “Allow me to help him out.”

David looked at him with surprise. “Robert? That’s awfully kind of you.”

“He was of excellent service, I believe he deserves to be rewarded,” Robert said, again speaking of Tony like he wasn’t in the room. It seemed to really affect him because he moaned quietly. He liked the idea of being used. He liked the idea of only having one purpose: to serve. Robert was convinced Tony’s loyalty went far enough that he’d be willing to do this over and over again at the drop of a hat, even if he wasn’t to be rewarded after, but he deserved it.

David had practically ripped Tony’s pants off. Tony hadn’t been wearing anything under them, so David was quick to wrap his hand around Tony’s cock and start moving it up and down. He didn’t do so too rapidly but he didn’t seem to be just teasing Tony, either. His grip seemed firm. He wanted to get him off in a very satisfying way. He deserved it. David cared about him, and even after he’d offered him up for the sake of a business deal, David wanted to remind him that he had his best interests at heart.

“You did so well, Tony.” David murmured, kissing below his ear. “God, you were so good I just wanted to pull you away and have you all to myself.”

Robert watched them for a moment, and there was something sweet in the way David was stroking Tony, the way Tony just closed his eyes and leaned into his touch. But that just wouldn’t do. He hadn’t come there to watch them being intimate, he’d been promised an obedient toy, and he was going to remind them of that. Just because he’d finished it didn’t mean the fun had to be over just yet.

“Off.” He just told David, who gave him a questioning look, but obliged. “I’m not done yet, and he still answers to me.”

David stepped back, and both him and Tony were looking at Robert with interest now, waiting to see what he had in mind.

Robert moved quickly, grabbed Tony by his hair and pulled him towards his crotch again. With the pleading way Tony looked up at him… it was a shame that Robert was quite sure there was no price David would accept to give Tony up. Alas, owning him would simply be reserved for his fantasies. So, he would certainly make what time he had left with him last.

“You’re so flustered, aren’t you?” Robert pointed out with a degrading tone. “But you’re such a good, obedient little slut, you won’t touch yourself unless someone orders you to.” Tony moaned in response. “Still, I’m not about to make this easy for you. I could jerk you off but that’s no fun for either of us. So… you’re going to ride my leg.”

Tony didn’t have to be told twice, and positioned himself right where Robert wanted him.

“You should know this, but let me repeat it just in case. Your eyes don’t leave me until you’re done.”

He started grinding against Robert’s leg, slowly at first, although Robert could tell how much restraint he was exerting. He was still on display and wanted to acknowledge he was aware of that. While he had been rock-hard just from being on his knees, not from anybody serving him, David had certainly pushed him further with his praise and gentle touch.

“I don’t even have to touch you to drive you insane.” Robert commented, and he sounded both impressed and amused. Tony whimpered at that, and his words really seemed to do the trick because he started rolling his hips faster, desperately, almost. Robert saw the battle in the man’s eyes between his own desire and his need to obey.

His expression turned pleading as his voice turned softer. “Please…” There was no doubt what he was asking for, but Robert hesitated to say yes. “I’m not the one you should be asking for permission.” He reminded him, and they both turned to David expectantly.

David just grinned. “You’ll have to ask me nicely… Robert.”

Robert just looked at him in disbelief for a second, but he realized it made sense. He wanted to see Tony come apart just as much as Tony wanted to. He’d shown David he craved something, and David was making sure he’d beg for it. It seemed Robert wasn’t the only one who liked to humiliate his partners.

He considered refusing for a moment, then realised he couldn’t; if nothing else, he owed it to the man on his knees for him. “Please, David.” He said softly, hoping he wouldn’t need to say more. David took his time making his decision, looking him up and down, enjoying the pleading expression on his face, before finally nodding. “Go ahead, Tony. You both deserve this.”

Tony came in short spurts against his leg, his whole body slumping with relief as he rode out the last of his orgasm. He panted, his eyes fluttered shut, and Robert used his fingers to swipe at where he had finished, before raising them to Tony’s mouth. Tony sucked on them, licking them clean, still intent on keeping up his service. A part of Robert wished Tony had done this when he had sucked him off, so Tony would have been tasting him.

Robert reached down to caress his face, then helped him to his feet before pulling him close in a hungry kiss. Tony’s tongue traced his teeth, and Robert pulled him in closer. He wanted this to end with Tony knowing undoubtedly that even if he’d gotten what he wanted, he was still under his command until the deal was closed.

He eventually pulled away, regretful, and David moved in closer to kiss Tony too, his gentleness contrasting his intensity, before he resumed his kneeling position from when Robert had entered the room. While Robert was sure the three of them were well and truly finished now, there was something very polite about how Tony was keeping up with the act. David ran a tight ship, it seemed, not that he expected anything less. 

“Same method of payment as usual, Robert?” David asked nonchalantly after a beat, like what they’d just done had been some kind of wonderful fever dream and not something real.

Right. Robert had almost forgotten why they were here.

“Yes,” He cleared his throat. “I’ll call my contact at the Swiss bank and she’ll wire you the money.”

David got out a computer as Robert placed his phone to his ear. Within a few minutes, they confirmed the transfer was legitimate. 

“Well. Pleasure doing business with you David.” Robert said, shaking his hand. David had a very satisfied look in his eyes.

“You too, Robert.”

David opened the door and watched as Robert and his men took off, giving one of his own people a nod to indicate the deal was done. Still, they knew better than to enter now that it was just Tony and David alone. They respected their privacy. Once the door shut again, David allowed his expression to soften as he came back to where Tony was.

He helped Tony remove his restraints. He also gave Tony some sweats since it was cold outside and those leather pants were paper-thin. David noticed the redness of the skin on Tony’s wrists and ankles, as well as his chapped, irritated lips from the gag. Tony had insisted on it being this way; David knew how much he liked being hurt so he’d gone along with it. Still, he was so happy that the deal had gone through, all because of Tony’s hard work. He wanted him to know how much he valued him.

Just as they were about to walk out the door, David placed a hand on his shoulder and pulled Tony in for a kiss. A gentle, sweet kiss. The kind of kiss he gave when nobody was watching. Tony smiled and kissed him back.

“Maybe next time, I can offer you on a silver platter.” Tony said half-jokingly. “Since you seemed to like it so much.”

David cocked a brow. While this was the typical dynamic between them, he knew that Tony did have that other side to him, one he usually kept deeply buried. He’d love to be able to see it more often.

He thought about another certain mercenary, whom he’d been struggling to negotiate with lately. McCauley was a difficult one. Set in his ways. Not too risk-inclined, but maybe, if they could give him the right incentive…

Perhaps he’d better take Tony up on his offer someday.
