Lowering his head back down he began to lick and eat more boldly, applying more pressure, touching her in the places he knew she was particularly sensitive. He knew every inch of her body. Knew she loved when he slid his finger into her pussy and pressed just so against her G-spot. She loved when he rolled his tongue around her clit, but she didn’t like when he sucked it too hard. And she loved to have the rim of her pussy opening toyed and teased with his tongue, his fingers and his cock. The quickest way to drive her insane was to fuck her with very short, shallow strokes with barely the head of his dick inside her.“You are a genius with your mouth,” she said dreamily. “I gotta tell Mia about this. All she said was that Gabe fucked her just inside the door, but I bet she doesn’t get this.”He raised his head, leveling a baleful stare in her direction. “Not cool, baby. Not cool at all.”Her eyes danced merrily and she giggled, momentarily releasing one knee to cover her mouth to sti
He laughed. “I haven’t gained size in my dick, baby. It’s the same size it’s always been.”“Okay, but it feels a lot bigger,” she grumbled.And then she pushed down, taking him to the balls. He groaned at the instant pressure surrounding him. She gripped him like a fist, squeezing and milking his dick like she wanted every drop of his cum.“Oh hell,” he muttered. “Need you to move, baby. This is going to be fast.”She shook her head and frowned. “Not until I say.”He lifted an eyebrow in question.“You can’t come until I say,” she said with a fierce glare.He laughed again and gripped her hips, holding her down in place. “Then you better say soon or you’re going to have an ass full of my cum and there won’t be a damn thing you can do about it.”She looked disgruntled but then she sat back, her hands sliding down his chest to his abdomen. She rotated experimentally, twitching her body this way and that until he was to the point of begging her to stop. She was going to be the death of h
“Jesus, you’re going to do it, aren’t you? You’re actually going to play nice with them for him?”“I don’t know what I’m going to do yet,” he muttered. “Haven’t decided. I’ve been invited to dinner next week. Granddad is going to be there. The whole fucking family will be there.”“I’ll go with you,” Jace said quickly. “Gabe will too. And Mia.”Ash looked back up at him, fierce love reflected in his green eyes. “You know I love you guys. You’ve always had my back. I’ll never forget that. But you and Gabe have Mia and Bethany now. I don’t want either of them—or you and Gabe—exposed to my nest of vipers.”“That’s bullshit,” Jace cut in impatiently. “We’re your family. You’re real family. And family doesn’t leave family to deal with this shit alone.”“I’m a big boy now. I can deal with their bullshit. I’d rather Mia and Bethany not be exposed to their manipulations. They’re malicious on a good day. Can you imagine what they’d do to Bethany if they knew about her past? They’d rip her to sh
“I’m sorry too,” Bethany whispered.Her face was a wreath of mortification, red suffusing her cheeks. As Ash stalked by Jace, he muttered, “What a dick,” and then got into the elevator.When Jace glanced back up at Bethany, prepared to demand an explanation, tears glittered in her eyes and her shoulders were slumped in defeat. She wouldn’t even look at him.His stomach knotted and he immediately regretted the conclusions he’d jumped to. He couldn’t even call them conclusions. He’d lashed out because he was already pissed, frustrated and tired. All he’d wanted was a quiet evening alone with Bethany and he’d arrived here to see Ash up close and personal with Bethany.Fuck, but he’d done it again. Spoke without thinking. And now Bethany was next to tears. He’d embarrassed her and he’d pissed off his best friend. He was beginning to make a regular practice out of being a first-class asshole.“Bethany,” he said in a quiet voice as he closed the distance between them.She flinched away the
He undressed and then slid into bed next to her. He edged closer to her until her back was pressed to his chest and he curled an arm around her body, pulling her even tighter to his body.She went rigid, tension boiling off her body.“We need to talk, baby.”She shook her head. “No. Not tonight. I have nothing to say. I’m too upset and we’ll end up saying things we regret. Isn’t that what you’ve basically said happens with you? That you say shit you don’t mean? For once, I want you to say something you do mean. I’m tired of guessing. I’m tired of having to tiptoe around, never knowing how you’re going to take things or how you’ll react or what fucked-up way you’ll interpret something that is absolutely meaningless.”He sighed and kissed her shoulder, leaving his lips pressed against her skin.“You haven’t even eaten anything. It’s early yet.”“I’m not hungry,” she said in a low voice. “Please, Jace, just leave me alone. I’m not going anywhere. I’m not running. Go eat or do whatever it
She sipped at the chocolate, allowing it to burn a warm trail into her belly.Jack came in and sat across from her in the armchair, his own mug in his hands. But he didn’t drink. He just watched her with sad eyes.“You can’t worry about me now, Bethy. You have a life. You have a man who cares about you. You need to focus on that and quit worrying about me.”She made a sound of exasperation and downed half of the chocolate.“I can’t just stop worrying about you, Jack. I’ve been worrying about you for too many years. That just doesn’t go away because my circumstances have changed. Why don’t you care more about yourself?”“I came back because I’d planned to call you from the phone here,” he said quietly. “Wanted to say good-bye.”Alarm raced down her spine. “Good-bye? Where are you going?”“Away,” he said simply, not elaborating.She finished off the cocoa and set the cup back down on the coffee table with a thud.“Where?” she persisted. “What are your plans? Don’t do this, Jack. Please,
“She’ll have whatever it is she needs,” Jace said. “However long it takes. But I’ll be there with her every step of the way. She’s never going to be alone again.”The driver roared to a stop outside the emergency room entrance and Jace jumped out, running inside, where he was immediately met by Kaden. Jace grabbed the much larger man by his shirt, pulling their faces close together.“Where is she?”“They’re working on her now,” Kaden said grimly. “Doc came out briefly to ask about family. I told him you were on your way. Said it was definitely an overdose but they can’t rouse her enough to ask what she took or how much.”“Fuck!” Jace exploded.He dropped his hold on Kaden and then stalked toward the desk and the wary-eyed receptionist.“Bethany Willis,” he bit out. “I want to see her now.”She rose and walked around the desk as Gabe and Ash came up behind Jace.“Sir, they’re working with her now. You’ll have to wait out here.”“The hell I will! Take me back to her now. I have to see h
“Look, I was doing you a favor,” Jack said angrily. “You should be glad that I’m out of the picture.”“You disgust me,” Jace seethed. “Unbelievable. This isn’t about me. I don’t have to like you, but Bethany loves you and I love her. I want her happy. That’s all I care about. And you dead would not make her happy.”Pain and regret filled Jack’s eyes. “I didn’t mean for it to happen. You have to know I’d never do anything to hurt her.”“You fucking offered her drugs before!”“That was different. She wouldn’t overdose on them. She never did. She only took them when she needed them. I just wanted to make sure she had what she needed.”“She doesn’t need that shit. Ever,” Jace snapped.“Is she going to make it?” Jack asked fearfully.“Jace, man, you need to come,” Gabe said from the door. “She coded, man. They’re trying to get her back now.”Jace fell to his knees, grief crushing through his heart. “No!” he roared. “No! I can’t lose her! Goddamn it, no!”Ash looked stricken and pale. Mia w
