The Love Laws

by Tamara Larson

  What does it matter now? They’re gone so I can never live up to their impossible standards anyway. I might as well fulfil their dire predictions and really make a mess of my life, she’d thought. Working at the Kitty-Kat, dressing outrageously, seducing men – she’d done all of these things because she’d wanted to defy them. She’d had no idea she was acting out of pain and anger rather than sincere enjoyment of her hedonistic lifestyle.

  She was so caught up in embracing her freedom that it took two years for her to realize that she was living her life to hurt them – her dead parents. Then the guilt and shame set in. What kind of person was she to act so bitter and resentful? She needed to grow up and take responsibility for her actions. The problem was that she didn’t know how to do that. She’d always been such an emotional, impulsive person. Making plans wasn’t exactly her strong suit.

  When her sister met Detective Duncan Reinhold and made some dramatic changes in her own life Jamie decided she also needed to make a change. She wasn’t trapped and didn’t have to be a screw-up just to spite her poor misguided parents. So she took steps to turn her life around, starting with quitting The Kitty-Kat and putting her design background to good use.

  Opening Hidden Treasure was the start of a new and respectable chapter in her life. With a lot of sacrifice and hard work she became someone her parents could be proud of but in the process she lost sight of what she really wanted and who she really was. As a result she felt like a complete fraud both personally and professionally.

  When she’d met Kevin there’d been something unnerving between them from the very beginning. It almost seemed like he could see right through her. There would be no hiding the horrible person she kept so carefully hidden from his perceptive gaze.

  Fearing that he wouldn’t want her when he discovered all her many deficiencies she’d rejected him first to avoid the pain of being abandoned again. What she hadn’t been prepared for was that Kevin didn’t care about her past. He wanted a future with her and even seeing her at her absolute worst didn’t discourage him from his goal. He thought she was worthy of love, even with all her glaring flaws.

  “No. I don’t see that at all.” He replied gently, confirming her dearest hope. “When I look at you, I see everything I could possibly want in a woman. And just for the record, you never have to apologize for pogo-stick sex. Or any kind of sex, for that matter.”

  Jamie turned in his arms, hiding her suddenly wet face in his hard chest. Her voice was muffled when she spoke. “This can’t be happening. You should have given up on me. Anyone one else would have.”

  Chuckling, he buried one hand under her hair and massaged the back of her neck in a soothing gesture. “Never. I’m in this for the long haul. Or at least until you file a restraining order.”

  She laughed and pulled back a bit, still looking down to hide her leaking eyes. “You’re safe. I have no intention of discouraging you. Ever again.”

  He crouched down so he could look her directly in the eye. The expression on his face was incredibly vulnerable and sweet. “Angel? Does that mean you don’t think I’m a lost cause anymore?”

  Jamie stared into his tawny eyes for a long moment, humbled by the raw emotion she saw there. Taking a deep breath she somehow found the courage to say what she truly felt. “It means that I think you’re the most worthy cause I can think of. And I am so on board with your man-whore reformation.”

  His lips quirked up in a crooked half smile at her words. “And what will that involve exactly?”

  She pretended to think about it. “Well, monogamy, of course.”

  “I can’t believe I’m saying this but I’m good with that.”

  “And sex. Lots and lots of sex.”

  “Exactly what I had in mind. What else?”

  “Well. True Love. Hopefully. ”

  He nodded. “I like the sound of that. Now, I know which part I’d like to start with.” Leaning down, he tipped her chin up with one finger and touched his lips to hers with heart wrenching gentleness.

  With a soft growl, Jamie stood up on her tip-toes and took control of the kiss, thrusting her tongue into his mouth and digging her nails into his broad shoulders. Her desperation added a roughness to her actions that she’d never felt before.

  She was done pretending she didn’t want him. It was such a relief to not have to hide her feelings anymore. Now she could finally show him exactly how much she needed to be close to him.

  Chapter Eighteen

  He’d never admit it to anyone, but Kevin was actually a bit nervous. He’d had sex with countless women in his notorious past but this time was different. Tonight was about two people coming together to express something real and lasting. And he didn’t really know how to do that. He was more than confident in his mad sexual skills but this whole love thing was something new. And he was man enough to admit that he was intimidated by the prospect of failing to impress.

  He wanted to show Jamie how incredible sex could be between them. To give her more pleasure than she’d ever experienced before. But there was one big problem: they’d barely kissed and he was already losing control. If possible, he was even more turned on than that afternoon at the Pier. At this rate he was more than a little concerned that he was going to finish all by himself, leaving Jamie to stand there unsatisfied and disappointed. Talk about an anti-climax.

  He needed to slow things down but she was kissing him with such unrestrained passion that he was completely helpless to stop her. It had been almost two weeks of unsatisfactory lonely guy sex for him after all. As a result he’d been hard and primed since the moment she’d entered the room and he’d gotten a whiff of her perfume.

  Now that she was actually here in his arms he was completely lost to sensation. The silky thrust of her tongue between his lips combined with the warm press of her generous breasts against his chest and the small kittenish sounds she was making caught him completely off guard. He’d been expecting her to be soft and romantic given the situation and setting. Yet she’d managed to surprise him again. Instead of Rom-Com sex she was bringing her porno game and he was unable to discourage her enthusiasm.

  He actually felt his eyes start to roll back in his head when she reached down and palmed his ass with both hands as she simultaneously sucked on his tongue.

  “Jamie,” he grunted, his voice sounding more than a bit desperate to his own ears. “We’ve got all night. Let’s slow down.” He pulled her wandering hands away from his ass and placed them around his neck where they could do less damage to his fading control.

  “Don’t want to slow down,” Jamie panted as she rubbed her breasts against his chest. “Let’s have a race instead.” Reaching up she nipped his ear lobe with her small sharp teeth and then sucked it into her mouth to sooth the sting.

  “A race?” He asked dumbly as gooseflesh broke out along his neck.

  She pulled back far enough to look up at him through her long flirty lashes. “Yeah. Let’s see who can get the other to climax first. Loser is the other’s slave for the night.”

  Kevin nearly choked. He knew who was going to lose that race.

  “Ummm… As much fun as that sounds. You have me at a bit of a disadvantage.”

  Jamie gave him a puzzled look. “What do you mean?”

  He gestured down at his hugely tented jeans and sighed. “It means you already have me so excited I’m about to be sporting a pretty impressive stain in about a second. Still want to race?”

  Jamie’s eyes widened and she covered her mouth with one hand to stifle a giggle. “Seriously? I thought given your history I was going to have to break out the contortions and candlewax to keep up with you. But kissing is all it takes? Really?” She sounded impressed rather than disappointed.

  Kevin ran his thumb over her full bottom lip. “Kissing YOU is all it takes. Now can we leave the Kama Sutra for another night and just enjoy each other?”

  She beamed. “That sounds perfect.”

  With a wince Kevin sat down on the window s
eat and looked up at her expectantly. Jamie chuckled as he furtively adjusted himself and then stepped between his widely spread legs, placing her hands primly on his broad shoulders.

  “Crisis has been averted. Come here,” he said with a growl. He tugged her close, until his face was buried in her abundant cleavage and his hands were full of her round ass. She felt incredible - so soft and warm. He could easily lose himself in just the perfection of her lush body. He never wanted to let her go.

  Jamie wrapped her arms around his head and tugged on his silky hair. “Are you sure? I don’t want to be responsible for any unwanted stains,” she teased. “What will the chambermaid at your hotel say?”

  Kevin sighed against her breast. “I’m never going to live this down, am I?”

  “Nope. Sorry. But fortunately for you we have the next forty years or so to work on your stamina.” She scraped the nails of one hand along the back of his neck and smiled as he shivered in response. “Would you like that?”

  Kevin groaned and breathed in her heavenly wildflower scent. “I think it will take at least that long to learn how to control myself around you. Pretty sure I’m going to be the embarrassing old geezer who sits around the nursing room with a permanent hard-on every time you come in to give me a sponge bath.”

  Jamie laughed. “Now that’s a romantic picture.”

  “What can I say? I’m a sweet talker. Now, let’s get naked.”

  “Excellent plan,” Jamie said as she reached down to grasp the back of Kevin’s shirt. With a tug, she yanked it off and his massive golden chest was finally exposed to her gaze.

  “Wow,” she said, running her hands over his incredibly wide shoulders. “You are so beautiful.”

  Kevin felt his face flushing and was glad for the dim lighting. “Whatever,” he said, ducking his head. He was clearly embarrassed at the awe in her tone.

  “No. You really are. Truly. I don’t know where to start. Everything looks so good.” She ran her hands over his firm pectoral muscles.

  “Can I make a suggestion?” He asked and pointed to his mouth.

  “Good choice,” she giggled and leaned down to kiss him.

  This time she was gentle, pressing soft butterfly kisses along the outline of his full lips while her hands smoothed over his long, muscular back.

  Kevin tried to hold still and allow her to slowly explore his mouth and body but it wasn’t in his nature to be submissive for long. Perhaps if her nipples hadn’t been straining for release against his chest he could have held on a little longer and allowed Jamie to play but those hard little nubs were just too tempting.

  Removing one hand from her bottom he slid his fingers up her torso until he could pluck at one distended nipple through her blouse and bra. It instantly pebbled under his touch and he cupped her breast with his hand, lifting it and testing its firm, smooth weight.

  Jamie gasped in reaction and he slid his mouth down her throat, pausing to suck the side of her neck for one brief moment before lifting her breast to his lips. He suckled the tip through the layers of material between them and pulled her body tight into the juncture of his thighs where his massive erection twitched and strained.

  Jamie whimpered and began yanking impatiently at the buttons on her blouse. Her hands were clumsy but she was able to remove the garment. She threw it on the window seat and began sliding her skirt down her legs. In a moment, she was standing in front of him in just her black and white polka dot bra and matching panties.

  “Yowza.” Kevin remarked, leaning back to admire the view. “Gotta say, finally checking out your underwear has been totally worth the wait. You’re so sexy, Angel.” He traced the intricate ribbon detail along the full cups of her bra. “But as pretty as this is, I’m definitely going to rip it if you don’t get it off in about two seconds.”

  Jamie laughed and playfully turned around until her back was to him. Pulling her long hair out of the way she arched her spine and glanced back at him. “Unsnap me?” She demanded.

  Kevin expertly released the triple hooks with a flick of his fingertips. Jamie shrugged out of the arms straps and threw the bra in his stunned face. Kevin was too distracted to notice. He took in the sight of Jamie’s long, smooth back and mouth-watering ass. Just the thinnest of polka-dot thongs framed those twin mounds of flesh. She was so voluptuous and firm he couldn’t resist leaning down and taking a little nibble of one full cheek.

  “Kevin,” she gasped and whirled back around to face him. “I can’t believe you just did that.”

  He laughed. “Sorry. Couldn’t resist. Now why don`t you come here and wrap those gorgeous legs around me? Hmmm?” He shifted back in the window seat until his naked back was almost touching the glass and beckoned her forward.

  With a small, seductive smile Jamie braced her hands on his wide shoulders and gracefully straddled his lap. They both groaned as she slid her body down until her mound rested directly over the prominent ridge under his zipper.

  Grasping her bottom tightly with both hands, Kevin ground her pussy against the front of his jeans as he thrust his hips. Her jagged cry of pleasure echoed in his ear as he found one of her hard nipples with his lips and suckled hard, taking most of her breast deep into his mouth.

  He could smell her arousal. It was a heady, sweet scent that made him want to taste her.

  Without warning, he held her legs tightly in place around his hips and stood up.

  Jamie could only hold onto his shoulders as Kevin dropped to his knees and sat her on the edge of the window seat. Kneeling between her legs he placed his large palms on the inside of both knees and pushed gently until her thighs were spread wide, exposing her damp panties to his eager gaze.

  “God. Look at you. I can’t wait to kiss you here,” he said, rubbing one thumb along the centre of her pussy from top to bottom. He did it again, this time pausing to dip his thumb into her slippery cleft before sliding away to brush delicately against where her clit clamored for attention under the satin of her panties.

  Jamie leaned back on her hands and watched as Kevin lowered his head and kissed his way up the inside of her thigh. He took his time, nibbling and licking his way up her body while his thumb and fingertips made lazy circles around her mound.

  When his mouth finally reached the juncture of her thighs she nearly wept in relief. She was incredibly wet and so aroused it was all she could do not to grab his head and thrust it between her legs.

  Biting down hard on her lips to stifle her cries she closed her eyes and waited for him to remove her panties. But he didn’t. Instead he actually licked her through the slippery material. Just a few swipes of the broad side of his tongue and then he was slowly sinking his tongue into her, burying it as far as the material would allow.

  She let out a small cry and grabbed his hair with both hands as he shifted the crotch of her panties to the side and covered her naked pussy with his mouth. He thrust his tongue deep, in and out, faster and faster, while his thumbs held her wide open to his invasion.

  “Oh yes. That’s so good,” she gasped as he replaced his tongue with three blunt, thrusting fingers and licked his way up to her clit. He flicked his tongue against her distended nub a few lazy times and then sucked it, hard. That was all it took. Jamie came around him with a cry and a tightening of muscles around his fingers that made him ache to be inside her.

  Before she had time to catch her breath Kevin was ripping at the closure on his jeans. With a muttered curse he lowered his straining zipper and yanked both his briefs and jeans down to his knees. He sighed with relief as his heavy erection was unleashed from its cotton prison.

  Pausing, he ran his hand up and down its length as he watched Jamie. She was slumped against the cold glass with her hands braced on the window frame. From the street below her bright hair and white shoulders would be visible but she didn’t seem to care.

  Only he could see how her hard little nipples begged for his lips and how her long, elegant legs were spread wide in invitation. The pink flesh between her t
highs was wet, glistening in the dim light. Best of all her eyes were hooded as she watched the movement of his hand along his own hard flesh. Then she licked her lips and looked up at him with such a hungry expression that he had to close his own eyes or be lost. She was the sexiest thing he’d ever seen and she wanted him. The knowledge made him feel like a superhero.

  “Do you want this?” He rasped, circling his aching cock with his fingers.

  She nodded and watched his hand race along his long shaft.

  “Good. ‘Cause I can`t wait to give it to you.”

  He raised up on his knees and rubbed his hardness along her slippery folds.

  She made an impatient sound and glared up at him.

  He chuckled. “What’s wrong? Taking too long?”

  “Quit teasing. And do it.”

  “Hmmm… Impatient. I like that. Just give me one more minute.”

  He parted her with his fingers and found her hard little clit. Gently, he brushed it with the silky head of his cock and nearly came himself as Jamie cried out in pleasure.

  Beneath him she thrust her hips upward, trying to maximize the contact between her most sensitive flesh and his but he held her down with one hand as he circled her nub again and again.

  Her sweet pussy seemed to grow more slippery with each pass of his hard cock. Her heat and scent were driving him wild to take her. When she finally stared up at him with glazed eyes and begged him to fuck her that was all he could take.

  Scrambling, he found the condom he’d stashed under the cushion with one hand, ripped open the wrapper with his teeth and slid it onto his massive erection in record time.

  Grasping her hips, he finally entered her, slowly filling her slick channel with his hard cock one inch at a time.

  It wasn’t fast enough for Jamie. She began bucking her hips in quick little pulses while squeezing her inner muscles tight enough to make him see stars.

  All thoughts of control vanished as Kevin became aware of how perfectly they fit together. How tight and hot she was around him and how beautiful her face was as she strained towards climax, her mouth open and her eyes shut tight in complete abandonment.
