Swallowing hard, she searched his eyes and whispered one tiny word that packed a heavy punch. “Stay.”
Jax reacted instantly, yanking her into his arms and crushing his mouth to hers. He gave her long, open-mouthed kisses, then sucked her bottom lip before plunging his tongue inside her mouth. Moaning, she wrapped her arms around his neck and fisted his shirt in her hands, tangling her tongue with his.
They went at each other’s mouths while his skin tightened and his blood quickly went from a simmer to a boil. He suckled, tongue ring and all, while she dug her fingers in his shoulders, body writhing against his.
Pulling back, he slid his lips across her jaw and bit down on her ear lobe before making his way down her neck, sucking gently. Reaching the junction of her neck and shoulder, he nipped harder, stopping to bite before caressing on her skin again.
“You’re going to give me a hickey,” she moaned out, moving her body restlessly against his.
“Do you care?” he murmured against her skin.
“Fuck no. Don’t stop.”
Smiling, he continued his efforts while sliding his hand from her waist to her breast. Finding her nipple, already hard and standing at attention, he flicked it hard, tugging on the bar piercing. Gasping, she thrust her hips into his in a move that had him groaning and pulling away from her neck to curse.
Ignoring her protests at the loss of his mouth on her, he grabbed her hand and tugged her over to the bed. She quickly shut up and complied when she realized what he was doing, and once the backs of her knees were pressed against the mattress, he let her go, quickly pulling his shirt over his head. Dick throbbing at the way she hungrily stared at his chest, he grasped the hem of her tank and pulled it over her head.
Breath whooshing from his lungs at the sight of her bare chest, he leaned over and sucked her nipple in his mouth, his hand coming up to play with the other. He flicked her erect nipple with his tongue while his fingers grasped her piercing, using it to tug and twist her nipple.
“Oh yes, holy shit, Jax. My God… no one’s ever…”
Her voice trailed off, and he was glad for it. He had zero desire to hear about what any other man had done to her. Sliding his hand down, he pushed it into her shorts, cupping her mound and growling when he felt how wet she was already.
Unable to wait any fucking longer, he shoved her shorts and panties off before pushing her down on the bed. She gasped, bouncing twice, and before she could settle in, he threw her legs over his shoulders and buried his face between her thighs.
The first taste of her as he swiped his tongue up her center was pure bliss. Moaning, she fell back to the bed, her fingers grasping the short strands of his hair and tugging hard. Not feeling the pain, he ran his tongue around her clit for a moment before plunging it inside her, then making the trip back up to her clit. Circling soft and slow at first, he increased the speed and pressure, then sucked her swollen nub into his mouth.
Back arching and hips undulating, Piper let out a long, breathless moan, and he knew she was close. Thank the good Lord, too, because his spine was tingling and his balls were tight, and he wasn’t going to last much longer. Renewing his assault, he flicked her clit fast and hard, and moments later, she was coming, her body convulsing and her thighs tightening around his head.
Lunging up, he wiped her wetness from his chin and kissed her hard, pouring all the passion he felt into it as he shoved his pants down and kicked them off. She allowed the kiss for a moment before she yanked him down on the bed, shoving him onto his back and raining kisses on his face and throat. She licked her way down his chest, but when she got to his belly button, he grasped her arms and pulled her up, reversing their positions.
“No,” he panted. “I’m too close. If I feel your hot mouth on me, if I feel that fucking tongue ring touch my dick, I’m a goner. I don’t have the willpower to handle more. Last night was the first time for me in longer than I care to think about, and I’m still too close to the edge. And I want more. I need you, Piper.”
Eyes wide and chest heaving, she nodded, letting her legs fall open. Settling between them, he leaned down to kiss her again, lining himself up at her entrance and surging forward with one hard thrust. They both froze, and Jax gritted out a curse, desperately trying to keep some control.
Pulling out slowly, he thrust hard back inside, his eyes rolling closed at the feel of her hot walls gripping him tightly. She wrapped her legs around him, her heels digging into his ass as he repeated the motion. Over and over, trying to keep the pace the same, but he could feel his control slipping, and soon he was pounding into her with no rhythm or finesse at all.
But she didn’t seem to mind, her nails raking down his back and her hips meeting him thrust for thrust as she moaned in his ear. Feeling his balls tighten to the point of pain, Jax adjusted his position, never letting up on his pace, and put his thumb to her clit, rubbing hard and fast circles around it.
“Oh fuck, Jax, just like that. Don’t… stop…”
Thrusting into her so hard she scooted up the mattress, he moved his thumb directly over her clit. With a high pitched keening noise, Piper came, her hot walls convulsing around his dick. The sensation shot through him, and with a shout, he came, spilling himself inside her, his thrusts becoming erratic as his vision blackened around the edges.
His hips slowly eased to a stop, and he rested there, fighting to draw in air with his forehead pressed to her chest. She was panting, little aftershocks making her shiver and him groan, running her fingers through his hair and down his back. Gently easing out of her with a sigh of pleasure, he laid on the bed and pulled her into his arms.
Their breathing slowly calmed, and he stroked his hand down her arm as she snuggled in tighter, her head resting on his chest. His eyes were beginning to fall closed when she spoke.
“What did you mean by, it’s been a long time for you? You said something like that last night, too. You’re fucking gorgeous, Jax, and you’re a fighter as well a songwriter with number one hits under your belt. Surely you’ve had women throwing themselves at you. How is it even possible that it’s been a while for you? I would have thought you got laid every few days, if not more.”
Freezing for a moment, Jax blew out a breath and briefly closed his eyes. There was no reason not to tell her. He wanted nothing between them, even truths that didn’t affect their relationship, one way or another. Concentrating on the feel of her fingers tracing the tattoo on his pec, he took a deep breath.
“There hasn’t been anyone since you, Pippy. I’ve never had any interest or desire in any other woman but you. Sleeping with someone else would have just been meaningless and empty, even if I could have made myself. And I couldn’t begin to even try to do it. So the last time I had sex was eight years ago, with you.”
“What happens when y
ou get rich and famous off your music, and women are throwing themselves at you?”
Frowning, Jax looked down at Piper where she was lying with her head on his lap. “What are you talking about?”
