I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.
“Will you promise me I will never see that again?”
I opened my eyes and met hers. “Not sure I can promise that, Letti.”
She breathed out through her nose in a long huff before she pressed her lips together and nodded. “God, I wish you’d given me a different answer.”
I did, too, right about now.
I was done letting her spiral. “Okay, I’m gonna—”
She held her hand up. “Wait. I need to get this out, Jasper.”
I crossed my arms again and nodded.
“It is not lost on me that everything that happened this morning had nothing to do with the club, and that on any given day, considering the fact I work with a degenerate gambler, that this could have happened.” She started to pace again. “That being said, if you hadn’t shown up at the zoo—”
“You shoulda never gone there alone,” I growled.
“Yes. I’ll never do it again,” she said. “Can I finish now?”
I sighed, then gave her a nod.
“This could have happened to anyone. And if it hadn’t been me, then you, and subsequently, the club, wouldn’t have been there to save whoever the poor schmuck was who saw Joe get tied up and thrown to the lions.”
I studied her, forcing myself not to pull her to me and hold her.
She stopped pacing and faced me again. “Today was really disturbing. But the most disturbing part of it was that it felt good. Not that someone got killed, regardless of how horrible they were, let me be clear. But how good it felt to have you at my back. To have you protect me at the risk of everything you could lose.” She closed the distance between us, grabbing my cut and pulling me toward her, forcing me to uncross my arms. “To know that no matter what, I’m covered. Whether it’s by you or my dad, or by the rest of the brothers, I amprotected. Nothing can touch me.” She slid her arms to my neck, pushing my cut from my shoulders, then throwing it over the back of the sofa. “It sounds crazy, but I didn’t realize, until about an hour ago, that this life, the life I fought against for so long, is the only life I could have ever lived.”
At her prompting, I lifted my shirt off over my head and she ran her tongue between my pecs.
“You were the only man I could have ever loved.”
Sliding her hands to my waistband, she bit gently on my nipple, and I slid my hands into her hair gripping her scalp gently.
“Yours was the only body I could have ever worshiped.”
She unbuckled my belt, then unzipped my jeans, pushing them over my hips as she knelt in front of me.
“And this was the only cock I could ever suck and enjoy.”
Her mouth wrapped around my already hard cock, sucking the tip into her mouth and I gripped her scalp harder as she took me deep.
“Jesus,” I hissed as my dick hit the back of her throat.
She gripped my thighs and took me so deep, she choked herself. I lowered my head to look at her and she had tears sliding down her cheeks, but kept goin’ at me. Fuck me, she was gorgeous.
She dragged her mouth back and looked up at me, licking the tip of my dick, then smiling. “Are you going to fuck my face or what?”
I grinned, sliding back into her mouth and centering my legs, while she held my thighs and pressed her tongue against my dick, urging me on, so I stroked her cheek, then settled my hands on her head again and did as she demanded.
I fucked her face.
She added her hands, dragging them root to tip as she matched the motion with her mouth. She cupped my balls as they began to tighten, and I squeezed her scalp, my silent warning that I was about to come.
“Now, baby.”
She sucked gently as I released everything I had down her throat and she continued to work her mouth to milk me dry. I pulled away from her and knelt in front of her, kissing her gently.
