“You needed to rest, Jaylynn, and it’s done you the world of good.”
She nodded. “You’re right.”
“What?” Cael cupped his ear and canted it toward her.
She giggled and shoved his shoulder. “Don’t make me repeat it. I might choke.”
Cael laughed as he wrapped an arm around her shoulders and pulled her tighter against him. She glanced up as he looked down. “I love you so damn much, sweetness.”
“I love you, too, Cael.”
He lowered his head and brushed his lips over hers. She moaned and opened to him, their tongues curling and gliding with carnal delight. When they were both breathless, he lifted his mouth from hers and they both gasped for air.
“Are you happy, sweetness?” Cael asked as he cupped her cheek and stared deeply into her eyes.
“Yes, I am.”
A shadow flashed across her gaze but was quickly gone again. “What is it, Jaylynn? What’s wrong?”
When she lifted the wine glass to her lips, he dropped his hand from her face.
“Sometimes I feel guilty.”
“Why?”
“Because Seb isn’t here. I know he’d want me to be happy, but sometimes the guilt and grief just creep up on me. He never got the chance to find someone to love or have a life with. He’ll never know what it’s like to hold his baby in his arms.”
“I understand, sweetness, but you’re right, he would want you to be happy. He’d hate it if you spent your life all alone with no one to love you or for you to love in return.” Cael sipped his beer. “He knew about us.”
She frowned at him. “What do you mean?”
“Seb knew we wanted you to be our woman not long before he died. We promised him that we’d wait before dating you, to give you a chance to experience life. You were just about to finish up at culinary school. We were devastated when we got home to find you gone.”
“I’m sorry, Cael. I…” She frowned as she thought about what she wanted to say. “I didn’t know or think you liked me that way. As I’ve told you before, I had a huge crush on you, Ajay and Brax when I was a teenager, but I never once suspected you even saw me. I always thought you and your brothers saw me as your friend’s, Seb’s, pesky little sister. And I was right. It broke my heart to see you bringing women home.” She held up her hand when he would have spoken. “I now know you were, are healthy sexual men and were just living your lives. I can’t fault you for that. After everything with Seb’s death, everything felt different. With Jimmy pestering me, as well as the memories, I just couldn’t stay.”
“I wish you’d come and talked to us, sweetness. We might not have wasted a year apart.”
“I think we needed that time away from each other,” she said before taking another sip of wine. “I’d come to depend on you all and while I was capable of doing everything for myself, I think I started taking you for granted. Whenever you were home, you and the others were always there, mowing the lawns or lending a helping hand. When I left Fort Worth I only had myself to rely on. You say I was mature for my age, maybe I was, but truly being on my own, all alone, made me grow up even more. It also made me realize that what I felt for you, Brax, and Ajay wasn’t just a schoolgirl crush, but was something much deeper.
“Even though I was in a lot of emotional pain, it was my own doing and it made me open my eyes. I think if I hadn’t made a clean break my feelings for you and your brothers would have remained weak, a shadow of what they are now.”
“You’re so fucking amazing, sweetness.”
She shook her head. “No, I’m just me, but I’m glad you think so.”
“Drink your wine, Jaylynn,” Cael said as he drained the last of his beer, rose and walked toward the recycle bin.
She drained her glass and stood, intending to wash it out in the sink, but Cael met her halfway, removed the glass from her hand and placed it on the counter away from where they were standing. He grasped her hips and lifted her up, plonking her ass on the edge of the bar.
Cael nudged her legs apart and moved in between them. He cupped her face, gazed deeply into her eyes and lowered his mouth to hers. Jaylynn instantly opened to him, tangling her tongue with his as she wrapped her arms around his neck and her legs around his waist.
He groaned, and she moaned when his hard cock pressed against her hot mound. Cael tilted his head, delved into her mouth and kissed her voraciously. He pushed his hands up under her shirt and caressed over the warm soft skin of her back. She whimpered and arched her hips toward his, grinding her pussy against his hard cock. He broke the kiss and as he began to lick and nibble his way down her neck, he inched her shirt up higher and higher. He lifted his mouth from her skin and whipped the shirt up over her head before dropping it to the side.
“Fuck, you’re beautiful,” Cael rasped out as he traced the top edge of her bra with the tip of his finger. He watched, mesmerized, as goose bumps formed on her skin and her nipples hardened. He glanced up and bit his lip when he saw how she’d tilted her head back with her eyes closed. She’d braced her weight by resting on her hands behind her. Her long auburn hair was a shining cascading waterfall of dark silk. Her cheeks were flushed, her lips red and kiss-swollen and her cheeks were tinged pink with passion. He kissed over the top of her breasts and then drew her lace covered nipple into his mouth, lapping and sucking on the sensitive tip until she cried out, before switching to her other nipple.
Cael feasted on her breasts until she was writhing with need. He finally lifted his mouth and flicked the front clasp of her bra open. He caressed the straps from her shoulders before skimming his hands down over her breasts, torso, and belly toward the waistband of her jeans. After tugging the button open, he lowered the zipper, hooked his thumbs into the edge of the denim and pushed them over her hips. Jaylynn lifted her ass from the counter, making it easier for him to pull them lower down her thighs. He knelt on one knee, tugged her shoes and socks off and then removed her jeans.
He followed the creamy expanse of her toned, shapely legs up to her green silk covered mound and licked his lips. Saliva pooled, and he swallowed quickly, yearning for a taste of her sweet honey.
Jaylynn pushed up on her hands and peered down at him. She closed her eyes and gasped in a breath before opening her eyes again. “I need you, Cael.”
“And you’ll have me, sweetness, but first—” He cut himself off and he gripped the seam of her panties and tugged sharply. The material tore, and he pulled the scrap out from under her ass and stood. Cael scooped her up into his arms and carried her to one of the bench seats before lowering her down with her ass on the edge of the cushion. As he knelt, he wrapped his arms around her thighs and spread her legs wide.
Cael was so hungry for her, he dove right in, shoving his head between her legs and lapped at her hot, wet cunt. He growled as her sweet honey coated his tongue and she groaned as he dipped the tip into her entrance, her hands caressing over his head before clutching at his of hair. He licked, sucked and ate at her until she was sobbing with pleasure. He shoved his tongue into her pussy, fucking her with it. When she started rocking her hips as she tugged on his hair and pressed her cunt harder into his mouth, he realized she was right on the precipice.
He licked his way up to her clit and stroked two fingers into her hot, wet pussy. She cried out as she bucked against him and her legs trembled in his hold. Cael pumped his fingers in and out of her cunt, fast, hard and deep while lashing her clit with his tongue. When he heard her stop breathing he opened his mouth over her sensitive nub, caged the bud gently between his teeth and flicked it with the tip of his tongue firmly and quickly.
Jaylynn screamed as she careened over the cliff. Her muscles clenched and released around his fingers over and over. When the last contraction faded, he withdrew his fingers from her cunt and sucked them clean. He stared at her with awe as he started to strip off. When he was naked, he picked her up and sat down on the cushion before turning her in his arms until she was facing him and lowered her
to his lap. She met his gaze as she reached down to grip his cock and align it with her dripping entrance. Cael held his breath as she sank down over his hard, aching dick and released it on a groan as she enveloped his length, taking every inch of him inside of her until he was root deep.
His dick twitched and throbbed and Cael hoped he could hold out long enough for Jaylynn to orgasm again.
* * * *
Jaylynn could tell that Cael was keeping his lust on a leash when she noticed how hard he was clenching his jaw and how taut his muscles were. However, she didn’t want him holding back. He’d already given her an explosive orgasm and didn’t need another to be satisfied. She’d be gratified seeing him orgasm even if she didn’t come again.
With determination in her heart to make him lose control, she flexed her internal muscles and began to move. She started out slowly, savoring each and every liquid slide of his cock as the friction of their flesh rubbing together sent pleasure pooling low in her belly. As she got into a rhythm she picked up the pace. She undulated her hips, shifting up and down over his hard cock, moving forward and back, using her internal muscles to grip his cock and heighten his pleasure.
Cael groaned and leaned forward, taking one of her nipples into his mouth to suckle on it firmly. His hands caressed down her ribs, over her hips before stopping to grip her ass cheeks. He lifted and lowered her, pumping his own hips as he thrust his dick in and out of her pussy. She combed her fingers into his hair as she licked and sucked on his neck.
He released her nipple, lifted his head and met her gaze. “Stop squeezing me, sweetness. You’re going to make me come.”
“That’s the whole idea,” she panted. Jaylynn lowered her mouth back to his neck and kissed her way down toward his chest. She lapped at his nipple, his rumbling groan vibrating against her lips. She scraped the small hard nub with the edge of her teeth and then bit down.
Cael’s grip on her ass cheeks tightened as he roared. He lifted her up higher on to her knees and then powered in and out of her pussy, hard and deeply. She gasped and moaned as the pressure inside her grew as the friction heated her insides.
Cream dripped from her pussy and the liquid desire pooling in her belly began to spread out. Her legs started shaking and it was all she could do to hold on. She clung to Cael’s shoulders, worried if she let go she’d fall from his lap.
He pistoned his dick in and out of her cunt, building the carnal tension higher and higher. The coil inside began to get tauter and tauter and the walls of her pussy grew closer and closer together.
Cael shifted both of them and when he shoved into her again, the head of his dick rubbed over her G-spot. She cried out and shook as she went racing up the slope toward ecstasy.
Jaylynn flexed her internal muscles, keeping her pussy tight around Cael’s cock as he shunted in and out of her cunt.
Just as she thought she was about to beat him to the finish line, she felt his cock get hotter, expand more and twitch inside of her. He covered her mouth over his, kissing her with a passionate fervor that sent them both careening to the stratosphere.
Her scream of rapture was muffled by his mouth as she quivered and shook. He shouted into her mouth as his cock pulsed and twitched as load after load of cum spewed from the tip of his dick.
Jaylynn didn’t remember leaning into Cael, but became aware of her breasts pressed to his chest and her cheek resting on his shoulder as she tried to catch her breath. He ran his hands up and down her back, occasionally squeezing her ass cheeks, before skimming his hand over her skin again.
He threaded his fingers into her hair, massaging her scalp and the back of her neck. She groaned at the caress and while she wanted to meet his gaze, she was so satiated with contented repletion, she didn’t have the energy or will to move.
Cael wrapped his arms around her, kissed the top of her head and hugged her tight. She hugged him back and hoped that they would have many more special loving moments in the years to come.
Cael, Ajay, and Brax were her world and she would do anything for them.
When the hair on the back of her neck stood on end, she pushed the disconcerting feeling aside. There was no reason for her to feel unsettled.
She was where she was supposed to be. In Cael’s loving embrace.
Chapter Sixteen
“When are you guys supposed to start your new jobs as deputy sheriffs?” Jaylynn asked after swallowing the food she’d been chewing.
They were all sitting outside on the deck, eating the delicious barbecued food Ajay and Brax had prepared and cooked. She’d eaten more than she usually did, but she couldn’t resist the marinated ribs, potato salad, steak and tossed salad.
Brax glanced at his brothers before meeting her gaze. “We can start whenever we want.”
Jaylynn frowned. “How come? I’d thought you would have had an official start date. I’ve seen your uniforms hanging up in your closets.”
Ajay shifted his gaze from her down toward his plate. Brax glanced skyward as he tipped his bottle of beer up and took a drink. She caught a sheepish look on Cael’s face before he quickly looked away.
“What aren’t you telling me?” She gazed from one to the other and back again.
Brax shrugged as he placed his bottle back on the table before picking up his knife and fork again. “We asked our new boss, Sheriff Luke Sun-Walker, to delay our start date.”
“You what?” Jaylynn shoved to her feet, leaned her hands on the table beside her plate and scowled at all three of them. “What the hell did you do that for?”
“Don’t get your panties in a twist, honey.” Ajay pointed his beer bottle at her. “We had a good reason for the delay and Luke had no qualms about waiting.”
“It was because of me, wasn’t it?” She straightened and threw her hands into the air. “I would’ve been fine.”
“That’s bull and you know it,” Ajay snapped. “You were so fucking run down you had convulsions. There was no fucking way we were leaving you by yourself. You could have fucking died, Jaylynn. Do you even get that?”
She sank back down into her chair with a sigh. Ajay was right. She could have died. From what she’d been told, her temperature had been way too high and if they hadn’t been able to bring it down she might have ended up with permanent brain damage. “I do,” she finally answered as she stared into Ajay’s eyes. “I’m sorry.” She met Brax’s and Cael’s gazes before meeting Ajay’s again. “I’m sorry for making you worry. I’m sorry for not looking after myself, and I’m sorry for leaving without telling you or writing a note.”
Ajay relaxed and then pushed to his feet. He stalked around the table and stopped beside her, holding his hand out to her. She took it and rose with his help, quirking an eyebrow at him questioningly. “I need some time alone with you, honey. Brax and Cael are going to clean up. Do you want to take a bath with me?”
She looked at Brax and Cael. “Are you sure you don’t want help cleaning up?”
“We’re fine, baby,” Brax answered. “Go spend some time with Ajay.”
She nodded and let Ajay lead her inside. He guided her through the kitchen, living room, down the hallway toward the bedrooms and into the bathroom.
“Take your clothes off, Jaylynn,” Ajay commanded as he bent over the spa bath, put the plug in and turned the water on.
Jaylynn began to remove her clothes. Ajay turned to watch as he started stripping. He was naked before her and from the hungry look in his eyes, as well as the erection he couldn’t hide, he needed her as much as she needed him. He gripped her hand and steadied her as she stepped into the bath and sank into the rapidly rising warm water. Ajay sat beside her.
“Did you and Cael have a good time in the gazebo today?”
She blushed, smiled and nodded.
Ajay grinned, winked and lifted her into his lap with her back pressed to his front. She sighed with contentment as she rested against him. He reached toward the shelf, grabbed a loofah, the shower gel and started washing her.
She turned to gaze up at him over her shoulder. “Why didn’t you tell me about your job?”
“We were too worried about you, honey, and we weren’t sure you trusted us anymore.”
Jaylynn got off his lap, turned and then straddled his thighs. “I’m sorry I hurt you, Ajay. It was never my intention to do that. I trust you.” She palmed his cheeks. “I trust all of you and I always have. And I’m sorry if I mucked up your plans for your job.”
Ajay shrugged. “You’re way more important to us than a job, honey. I love you so fucking much, Jaylynn. It nearly killed me to see you so sick.”
She nodded. “I understand because I’d feel the same way if I saw any of you in the same condition I was. I promise I’ll never do that to myself again.”
“That’s good enough for me, honey.”
Ajay dropped the loofah into the water, gripped the back of her neck and pulled her toward him. His mouth opened over hers and his tongue licked inside to twirl around hers. She moaned and kissed him back passionately. He groaned, squeezed her ass and tugged her crotch against his hard cock.
They kissed and kissed and kissed until she was in danger of passing out. She turned her head and sucked air into her lungs as Ajay licked and nibbled his way down her neck toward her breasts. She drew back slightly and arched her breasts up toward him, silently begging for his touch, his mouth, anything he wanted to give her.
He smoothed his hands over her back, arms and shoulders before cupping and kneading her breasts. He rolled the nipples between his fingers before pinching and plucking them. Jaylynn caressed over his chest, ribs and washboard belly toward his hard dick. She wrapped her hand around his shaft and pumped it up and down.
“Fuck, honey. You drive me so fucking wild.”
“You. Me,” she said breathlessly, incoherently. She was too caught up in what he was doing to her and she was doing to him to make any sense. All her guys drove her insane with need.
