Page 38 of Tangled in His Embrace

Chapter 10

Taylor had called around seven thirty Saturday night to say good night—first to Jax and then to Gabby. It was kind of an unspoken agreement not to mention they were together. They’d each spent about five minutes talking to their daughter, listening to her tell them about her day at the children’s museum. While she’d sat in bed talking to their daughter, Jax had lain there patiently beside her with a huge grin on his face.

After saying goodbye to Taylor, Jax and Gabby had lain in bed talking and touching for several hours until she could barely keep her eyes open. She’d finally asked him more about the mass they’d found, how it had been removed, and his recovery. He’d been alone for the most part. His choice, of course, but that didn’t stop her from imagining him lying in a hospital bed with no one there to comfort or support him.

Gabby woke early the next morning feeling rested and more at peace than she’d felt in a long time. She knew part of it was because she was finally getting answers to the questions that had been plaguing her for the last three years.

“Good morning.” Jax wrapped his arm around her waist and snuggled against her from behind.

“Hmm.” She could feel his erection nudging against her backside.

He ran the tip of his nose along the column of her neck, causing her to shiver. “Sleep well?”

“Very.” She tilted her head to the side to give him better access. “I liked having you in my bed.”

“I like being in your bed.”

Gabby felt teeth scrape against her skin, sending liquid warmth directly to her pussy. He was barely touching her and yet she knew it wouldn’t take much to send her over the edge.

She reached for his hand and guided it between her legs. He let her direct the movements, caressing her sensitive flesh and driving her closer to orgasm.

Opening her legs wider, he pushed two fingers inside her. “Do you like that, baby?”

“Yes.”

Jax turned them slightly, capturing her lips with his as she thrust his fingers in and out of her. “Do you want to come on my fingers or my cock?”

It took a moment for her brain to register what he said, but once she did there was no question in her mind. “Your cock. I want to come on your cock. I want you inside me.”

He kissed her again and removed his fingers so he could reach into the nightstand for a condom.

Gabby squeezed her thighs together, anticipation gathering in her belly.

Luckily, he was back in seconds and wasted no time getting into position. She moaned as he entered her, filling her in a way his fingers never could.

“This what you wanted?” he asked, his voice strained.

She reached for him, needing to feel his mouth on hers again. “Exactly what I wanted.”

They moved together, sensations building as she once again came to the top of that peak. She didn’t wait for him this time. Gabby snaked her hand between them and found her clit.

Her orgasm hit her hard and fast. She gasped, ripping her mouth away from his.

“I love watching you.” He was breathing hard, pumping into her with purpose. “Seeing your face when you come...”

Jax thrust into her twice more before his orgasm overtook him as well.

He collapsed on top of her, burying his face in her neck. After a few moments, he propped himself up on his elbow and stared down at her. “Care to join me for a shower?”

“I don’t know if that’s such a good idea.”

“Why not?”

She skimmed her fingers over his ass. “Because we might not end up getting clean if we both shower together.”

A wicked smirk crossed his face. “Don’t worry about that. I’ll make sure every inch of you is clean. Promise.”

Their shower took about twice as long as Gabby’s usual morning shower. He’d kept his word, though. By the time they turned off the water and dried themselves, every inch of her had been cleaned. More than once.
