Ash is speechless for a moment, then his eyes begin to glimmer with unshed tears. “I don’t know how I can ever repay you for all of this.”
“I can think of a few ways,” Alex whispers to Cole, earning a grin from the other man.
“I’m sure we can give him a few suggestions if he needs help.”
“Hang on, I’m not quite done. This is the paperwork giving you guardianship of Edie. She’s your responsibility now, so it’s time to clean up the playboy prince act,” I scold him semi seriously because I know there’s so much more to this man than the public sees. “Time to show the world what Lord Ashton Lavington is really capable of.”
I hand over the last folder, and Ash takes it, but he just throws it onto the table and stands up. He pulls out my chair and helps me to my feet. Instead of hugging me like I thought he was going to, he throws me over his shoulder and walks back toward my bedroom.
“Don’t disturb us until the morning,” he calls over his shoulder, and I hear the rest of the guys holler and clap their encouragement.
“Nowthat’swhat I’m talking about!” Alex shouts.
Before we get too far away, I hear Riku remark, “Doesn’t look like he needed any suggestions after all.”
ChapterTwenty
Jacinta
Much like Riku had at the castle, Ash carries me to my bedroom, but unlike Riku, who threw me on my bed, Ash stops just before it and slides me down his body. When my feet hit the ground, he kisses me like I’m his savior, the air he needs to breathe. His hands tangle in my hair, angling my head to just how he wants it. We’re both breathing heavily once we finally part, and his eyes widen as I push him away from me and drop to my knees.
I fumble with the button to his jeans before I get them open and yank them down. He’s commando, thank God, because I don’t think I could stand another layer between us. His cock is long and thick, the tip already weeping precum, so I swipe my tongue across his head, wrapping one hand around him and cupping his balls with the other.
I look up at him, unable to resist a glimpse. He’s slack-jawed, watching me with a hooded gaze. “You have no idea how hard it was to stop myself from doing this back in the closet.” My voice is raspy as I admit the truth to him. “All I wanted to do was wrap my lips around it.”
He threads his hands through my hair, his grip tight how I like it, and I moan as he pulls me forward.
“Open your mouth for me, darling. You look so pretty on your knees. You have no idea how hard it was not to move too.”
I let him guide me. He doesn’t treat me like I’m fragile. Instead, he uses me just how he wants, and I’m forced to breathe through my nose as he shoves his big cock down my throat.
“Oh yeah. Your throat feels so good around me,” he mutters, caressing my head while using me to take his pleasure. I hum and use my tongue when he draws back, sucking and slurping as much as I can to increase his pleasure. “Such a good girl, sucking my dick. So pretty on your knees at my feet. Look at me with those doe eyes, darling.” I look up at him, and his grin is wicked as he thrusts and holds himself deep. I fight my gag reflex and breathe through my nose, but when he pulls back, tears are leaking from my eyes and saliva drips down my chin. “Fucking beautiful.” He bends down and picks me up before backing up. He throws me, and I fall back with a small gasp of surprise. My legs are still hanging off the bed as he drags my yoga pants down my body and sucks hard on my clit. My moan is loud and obscene as he thrusts two fingers deep into my channel, which is sopping wet from everything I’ve been doing to him.
“So fucking tight,” he mumbles into my pussy. “Going to feel so good on my dick.” He quickly builds me to a peak, but he stops before I can explode.
“No!” I cry out, and he chuckles, dragging my top over my head and removing my bra before he finishes removing his. Ash is pale, but there’s not an ounce of fat on him. He’s cut like a Greek god. Damn, polo does the body good.
“God, you’re gorgeous.” He runs his hands up my body, cupping my breasts before giving the nipples some attention. He licks and bites and sucks until I’m rubbing my legs together to try to ease the ache he’s causing deep inside.
“Enough, Ash, fuck me,” I plead, and he bends to my wishes, but instead of slamming home, he lies down on the bed and pats his thighs.
“Climb aboard, baby. I want to watch you ride me.” I’m quick to straddle him, rising up to place him at my core before slowly sliding down his length. We groan in tandem as my body welcomes him into mine.
“Oh my god, so good.” I rest my hands on his chest and breathe as I slide up and down, trying to get him all the way in. There’s tension around his eyes and jaw, and the muscles in his arms ripple as he does his best to hold still. Finally, I’m seated.
“Like coming home,” he says, gazing up at me with worshipful eyes. “Take your pleasure, goddess,” he encourages me, and I start to ride him, my hips undulating up and down, my body angled over his so that his cock slides past the spot that feels the best. My hair hangs around us like a curtain, and he places a thumb against my clit so that it brushes across it with every slide.
My movement starts to falter as I get closer to the edge, and he grabs hold of my thighs and takes over, thrusting into me. Over and over, he thrusts as I hang on for the ride. I try to keep my eyes on his, but they keep drifting closed as I revel in the sensations he’s wringing from my body.
“Look at me, Jacinta. Look into my eyes as I own your body.” Ash’s voice is harsh, and as I lift my head, he flicks his thumb across my clit. A searing bolt of pleasure bursts outward as my body shudders with the onslaught. Ash bucks deep one more time before groaning as he finds his own release. Together, we ride out our orgasms, gripping one another, our breaths mingling. Finally, he pulls me down and kisses me. “You are amazing, I’m not sure how I’m ever going to repay you for what you’ve done, but I will spend the rest of my life trying to be worthy of you,” he declares softly, and I melt against him, pressing kisses to his heart, glad to be wrapped up in his arms. I wasn’t sure it would ever happen, but I finally have all of my men where they need to be.

The next day, we head out to the estate. The look on Ash’s grandmother’s face was fucking priceless when she realized I had bought the estate and given it to her grandson. Of course, Alex captured it on camera to preserve it for all time.
The raging argument that Ash and his grandmother had went on for a long time. So long that when I tried to interfere, Riku just grabbed me by the arm and dragged me outside. It was freezing, but we took a walk around the estate, each of the guys taking turns keeping me warm.
“Look! I wonder if we can skate on this lake.” Cole squats down to study the frozen expanse of water in front of us.
