“Hmm,” I said thoughtfully.
We finished writing in silence and then sat next to each other, comparing our addresses.
“These two are a little bit different,” I pointed to the two addresses.
“We can always give these to Dad and he can verify them thoroughly. Come up with a game plan,” Jaxson yawned.
I nodded thoughtfully. “If we strike them all at once, he wouldn’t know what hit him. He won’t have time to move them again.”
Jaxson drew me in his arms and buried his head in my neck. “I agree, but now sleep,” he looked down at his watch and groaned. “It’s 4 o’clock in the morning. We should try to get some more sleep. Sleepover in my room,” he wagged his eyebrows suggestively.
I giggled and rubbed my hands across his bare chest. I could feel the warmth radiating off his skin. “Raincheck,” I promised him as I looked over at Alex, who had already passed out in the middle of the bed. “Besides, you already have a guest,” I said tongue in cheek.
“Fine,” he grumbled good naturedly. “But, I want some Jaxson and Blake time.”
I reached up and kissed him on his mouth. I could tell I surprised him as his eyes widened. “Promise,” I said softly before leaving his room.
I felt bad that he felt like he wasn’t getting enough attention. Maybe I took our relationship for granted. Technically, he knew me the most. He had been my confidant and beacon of hope in my darkest hours. He had helped me feel like someone, cared for me, and made me feel like I wasn’t invisible.
I knew it was going to be a constant struggle to give them all the attention they deserved. I was only one girl; I was outnumbered by testosterone-driven gifted men. I needed to find our balance. I wanted them to each know how much they had come to mean to me.
Chapter 23
I woke up to soft kisses on the back of my neck, and I purred at all the sensations. My neck had always been a highly sensitive area. I scooted back into Jace’s obvious reaction. His warm hands found their way under my shirt and he reverently ran them along my body, cupping the weight of my breasts in his hands.
I gasped when his thumbs found my nipples and started to barely touch them with the tips of his finger. We hadn’t been intimate the night before, but I wanted nothing more to be with him right now.
He growled in my ear. “We need to work on your barriers. You turn me on, but feeling how much you want me turns me on more.”
Soon I was flipped onto my back, and I watched Jace lean back on his haunches. His intense blue eyes were devouring me with desire. He was so sexy with his tousled hair, bedroom eyes, and his five o’clock shadow dusting his strong jaw line and high cheek bones. He resembled a caged panther. Dark. Sleek. Muscled. Wild.
Before I could reach for him he was pulling my panties down my leg. “Jace,” I breathed.
“Shh,” he demanded. “I want to taste you,” he husked before he began to kiss the skin of my inner thighs.
His stubble was leaving a burn, but I didn’t care. He was never selfish when it came to this. It was as if he got as much pleasure giving it than I did receiving it. Finally, his mouth found my core and I nearly bucked off the bed in pleasure. He made a deep sound of satisfaction in his throat. It didn’t take me much to get ready for him—for any of them.
“Sweet as honey,” he said in contentment as he continued to lick and suck on me. He was a pro. If this was an Olympic sport, he would win Gold, every time.
He chuckled against me and the vibrations felt good. “Gold, eh?” he sat back as he raised an eyebrow at me.
I groaned in mortification as I found a pillow to bury my head under it. Did I really say that out loud?!
My chagrin was soon forgotten when he added his fingers into the mix. I knew I wasn’t going to last that long. I was glad for the pillow covering my mouth as I screamed into it.
I felt Jace shift so his head was on my stomach. He lazily traced his fingers across my skin. I was just trying to come down from my orgasm. My arms and legs felt like jelly.
There was a pounding on the door, and I sat up slightly irritated at the interruption. I straddled Jace’s lap. “Let’s pretend they’re not there,” I whispered in his ear.
He groaned as someone insistently pounded again. “It’s 6:30 in the morning,” he cursed.
“Wake up Blake,” Jaxson called through the door. “I know you’re in there,” he called out in smug satisfaction.
“I am going to beat him,” I muttered.
“Not if I beat him first,” Jace ground out before he stood up.
I could see he was still hard and ready. “We can make him wait,” I smiled suggestively.
