I bury myself to the hilt as she comes, continuing to thrust as her nails dig back into my skin, sending waves of pleasure rushing through my body.
I come as she’s riding out the last of her orgasm, strokes slowing as she wraps tighter around me.
When I pull out, I kiss her again, tongues tangling as I cup the back of her head and keep her close.
She moans into the kiss, fingers sinking into my hair as her tongue tangles with mine.
Jade finally breaks away, panting as she looks up at me. “You’re an idiot.”
“Would you leave that as a review of my sex skills? I think it’s really going to appeal to this sexy as fuck chef I’m in love with.”
Her face turns a bright red as she nudges me back a step and slips off the counter. “You’re not out of the doghouse yet. I’m still so mad at you.”
“You can be mad at me all you like as long as you’re coming home tonight.”
There’s a long silence.
She gets dressed without saying a word.
It’s torture watching her grab her purse and keys, jingling them from her finger. Her gaze rakes up and down me as I stand there, naked and waiting for her answer.
Her gaze lingers on all the cuts covering my body, but I don’t mind. It happened, and we’re going to move past this once I go to Aiden and beg him for protection. I’m not looking forward to doing that later today.
“I have things to do through the day.” A slow smile spreads, the corners of her eyes crinkling. “But I’ll be coming home tonight.”
I sweep her up into another kiss, this one shorter than the last, but it’s still a promise of what’s to come when I’m in better shape.
She looks at me before bending down and grabbing the clothes, tossing them to me. “What’re you doing today?”
“I was hoping you could take me to Aiden. I think I have some begging to do.”
She watches me get dressed, lust still shining in her eyes. “So, you’re serious, then? This is something you want?”
“Jade…” I lock gazes with her, needing her to see the truth, to know I’m serious. “You are all I’ve ever wanted, and I would do anything to have you. And if that means I need to go beg your asshole brother to keep my safe from my asshole half-cousin, then that’s what I’m going to do.”
She walks over and brushes her lips against mine. “Good. Are you going to miss it?”
“I’m going to miss stalking you.” I slip my hand into the back pocket of her shorts, holding her against me.
“Well, lucky for you, I think I have a solution to that.”
“And that is?”
She moves quick, pulling down my pants so my entire cock is out.
Laughing, she takes off running for the door. “Catch me if you can.”
As I haul up my pants and give a half-assed chase to the car, I’m more than happy.
I’ll chase her to every corner of the world if that’s what she wants.
Chapter Thirty-One
JADE
I’ve never beenthe type to cry at weddings. Not once. I like to look at the sorry sucker standing at the other end of the aisle. The man who’s been told his entire life is going to end once they get married.
And when I look at them, I can see they never believed it.
