Chapter Twelve

THE MORNING SUN trickled in through the sheer curtains, illuminating Jordan’s long legs and luxurious curves draped over Jax’s side. Her head rested on his chest, and Coco was asleep, nestled behind her. If Jax could wake up like this every morning, he’d be the happiest man alive. This had to be it. The feeling his brothers talked about that had made them fall hard and fast for their significant others. Except Nick, who had walled his heart off so adeptly, he’d wasted years when he could have been with Trixie all along.

Jax wasn’t going to make that mistake, and he sure as hell wasn’t leaving town.

Last night had been the most intense sexual experience he’d ever had. They’d gone from the table to the couch to the floor and, eventually, to the bed. Being with someone he cared about brought pleasure to a whole new level, and it also intensified his need to cherish and protect Jordan. They’d stumbled into the shower to rinse off at two in the morning, laughing and kissing as they’d bathed each other, and the intimacy of taking care of her was just as magnificent as their lovemaking.

He ran his hand down her hip, wanting to show her how he felt in every way he could so she never had any doubts. He gently rolled her onto her back, and she made a mewling sound.

“Please don’t go,” she said sleepily.

“It took us months to get here, and I’m not losing another second.” He moved over her, lightly kissing her lips. “The only place I’m going is down on you.” He began kissing his way down her neck, and Coco jumped off the bed.

Jordan giggled, her cheeks pinking up. “I think she knew what you meant.”

He’d seen that flash of innocence last night when he’d devoured her, and it had gotten him all twisted up inside. He’d never been a twisted-up kind of guy, and he loved that feeling, too.

He continued kissing his way down her body, her delicate fingers running through his hair. Man, he loved her touch, and he knew how much she loved his, because her breasts rose with each heavy breath. He slowed to lavish them with attention the way he’d already learned drove her wild, teasing with his tongue, grazing with his teeth, and sucking hard enough that she bowed off the mattress, sexy sounds spilling from her lips. Those needful sounds spurred him on as he tasted and nipped his way south, trailing his fingers down her rib cage and over the dip at her waist, bringing rise to goose bumps and earning more greedy whimpers. He clutched her hips, utterly bewitched by her curves, and couldn’t resist taking a little love bite.

She sucked in a breath. “Do that again.”

He did, only this time he moved one hand between her legs, teasing her wetness, and she made a long, low, hungry sound. He kissed her inner thigh, moving her leg over his shoulder and splaying his hand over her other thigh, holding it against the mattress as he slicked his tongue along her wetness. “So damn sweet.” He sealed his mouth over her clit, working it to perfection, until she lost control, quaking against his mouth and then falling limp against the mattress.

His gaze swept up her body as he lowered her leg. She looked like an angel with her hair spread out on the pillow, eyes closed, fingers digging into the mattress.

“Open your eyes, baby.”

Her eyes fluttered open, revealing deep pools of desire. He ached to be inside her, but that would have to wait. He wanted her out of her mind with need for him.

“Put a pillow behind you and scoot up. I want you to watch me feast on you.”

Her eyes flamed as she followed his request, the flush on her cheeks deepening.

He pressed a kiss just above the very heart of her and went up on his knees, holding her gaze as he dragged his hand over her slick heat, teasing her with his fingers and wetting his palm. He fisted his cock, giving it a few tight strokes, and her eyes widened. Oh yeah, baby. We’re going to experience so many great things together. “You like to see me touch myself?”

She nodded.

He continued stroking himself and used his other hand to drive her wild, caressing her clit with his thumb as his fingers worked their magic inside her. Her eyes closed and she bit her lower lip, her fingers clawing at the sheets.

“Eyes open, sweetheart.”

She opened her eyes, and he quickened his efforts between her legs, still stroking his cock, bringing her right up to the edge of losing control, then slowing, leaving her panting and whimpering.

“Touch your breast.”

Her hand moved tentatively to her chest.

“Don’t be shy, baby. I’m stroking my cock for you. You’re safe with me.”

She palmed her breast.

“That’s it. Now tease your nipple the way you like me to do it.” She did, and her eyes closed. “Eyes on me, baby. You’re so fucking sexy, I could come just watching you.”

Her eyes locked on his and dropped to his fisted cock, a needy sound slipping free.

“Oh, you’ll get it, baby. You’ll get it good. But first I want more of you.”

He lowered himself between her legs and slicked his tongue along her wetness, earning more sinful sounds as he loved her slowly, savoring her sweetness, coveting every needy moan and rock of her hips. But it was the emotions swimming in her eyes, the desperation and desire, bringing out his carnal desires. When her eyes fluttered closed, he drew back, reminding her to watch. Those baby blues hit him like a hook, reeling him in, making him want and need until he couldn’t hold back. He gave her what she craved, sealing his mouth over her clit, sucking in fast, hard pulses, heightening her pleasure and keeping her at the peak until her entire body trembled and shook and his name flew from her lips like a prayer.

He eased his efforts, licking and loving her as she came down from the clouds, and then he kissed his way up her body, whispering between touches of his lips, “So beautiful…so sweet…so soft and feminine.”

So mine.

Pleasure and so much more shimmered in her eyes. His heart thundered and swelled as he aligned their bodies, lacing their fingers together, but her cold, hard engagement ring brought reality rushing back. Just because he was ready to give her the world didn’t mean she was ready to accept it. He lowered his mouth to hers in a merciless kiss, trying to chase that thought away as their bodies came together, and he poured all his emotions into the woman who was changing his world one sweet smile at a time.

Their bodies took over, and they found their rhythm, stealing his need to chase anything other than their pleasure. He lost himself in her warm, willing mouth, her softness molding to his hard frame, and her tight heat welcoming his cock like he’d finally found his home. He pushed his hands under her hips, lifting and angling so he could take her deeper. She made an appreciative sound and dug her fingers into his arms, rocking up to meet his every thrust. So fucking hot. Her thighs flexed, and he felt her orgasm mounting in her trembling body. He tore his mouth away, quickening his efforts.
