Band Sinister - Guy/Philip/Corvin/John (Touched & Predatory)
John Raven was watching him. Had been watching for weeks, if Guy let himself admit it, and he wasn’t sure what to make of that, not in the slightest. He was used to Corvin watching, because it was not, Guy thought, especially specific; Corvin flirted with everyone. At best, he looked at Guy a little more closely because Guy was Philip’s and Corvin was making an effort for Phil’s sake, which was touching in a way.
But now they were looking, both of the men who were his lover’s lover. Guy felt that things were about to get extremely confusing.

There was nothing predatory about the way John watched him, nothing threatening or even overt. Guy felt it in the quiet moments, like a presence in the wings of an engrossing play: they’d all of them have dinner, say, and Corvin might be laughing and Philip drawing Guy’s knuckles to his lips with a smile, and there it was: the gaze of dark eyes on him, unobtrusive but undeniable. John was an intense man and there was no covering the fact that when he looked at you, you knew yourself looked at.
