Shifters Vignettes: Maddie and Jasper

by Vivian Wood

  Maddie started pulling at his shirt, giggling when her arms clashed with his as he tried to take her shirt off at the same time. Scrambling to discard their clothes, they stripped each other in moments.

  Maddie tried to straddle his lap again, but Jasper firmly pushed her down and threw his leg over her body to keep her still. Ignoring her attempts to break free, he splayed his palms over her breasts and teased her nipples with the rough calluses of his thumbs. Maddie bit her lip, stifling the moan that rose in her throat at the contact. His lips curled, and he continued to tease her. Each touch was molten, sweet sensation trickling from her nipples down to the apex of her thighs and pooling there.

  Maddie bucked into him, pressing her mons against his cock. She felt it jump in response, pressed tight against her heated flesh. Jasper’s hands clenched on her breasts, driving Maddie wild. She ground her hips in desperation, a whimper escaping her throat.

  Using his knee, Jasper spread her wide. His hand dropped down, tracing her wetness until he found her clit. The touch of his fingertips had her gasping, pressing her hips forward to seek his touch.

  “Oh,” she moaned, “right there, baby.”

  Jasper leaned over and nuzzled her earlobe as he circled her throbbing clit. Maddie strained against his fingertips, panting with want. Jasper reared up suddenly, pushing her onto her back and kissing her breasts. Maddie hissed, impatient, but he merely smiled and trailed kisses down her ribcage to her belly.

  Moving lower, he made a show of kissing and nuzzling her mons and inner thighs.

  “Jasper, please!” Maddie cried, burying her fingers in his hair.

  He obliged, spreading her pussy with his hands. He dragged the tip of his nose from her entrance to her clit, then swirled his tongue just where she needed it most. She tensed, ready to peak. One more lick, then Jasper sucked gently at her clit.

  “Fuck!” Maddie shouted, her eyes rolling up as she convulsed against his tongue. She had shattered, exploding into a thousand, a million tiny pieces that became stars in the darkness of her orgasm.

  It felt like ages before she was fully aware again. Her first sense was that of Jasper moving up to lie fully against her body, her second the eye-opening sensation of his cock pressing into her soft wetness. She moaned, tilting her body up to allow him better access.

  “Maddie,” Jasper said, his voice a seductive whisper. Her eyes fluttered open, trying to focus.

  “Look at me,” he commanded. Maddie looked up at him, utterly in his thrall.

  “Who do you belong to?” he asked, thrusting gently against her. Not enough to push into her tightness, just enough to tease her with the head of his cock.

  “Madeline,” he said, his voice growing stern. “Tell me who you belong to, and I’ll give you what you want.”

  Maddie released a pent-up breath, her words a sigh of want.

  “You. I belong to you, baby,” she promised.

  “Fucking right,” he said, his voice grave. He immediately thrust deep, burying himself almost to the hilt. Maddie cried out, pleasure and pain and need. Jasper withdrew the barest inch, then thrust again. This time he buried himself in her body, completing her.

  Drawing her knees up to her chest, Jasper rolled her hips back and began to thrust hard. His hands grasped her hips, tilting her to just the right angle as he pounded into her flesh. He hit the perfect spot almost immediately, and Maddie gave a hoarse shout of pleasure.

  “Right there?” he asked, his question needing no answer. She was clenching against him already, mad with the sweet sensations pouring into her body. Her nipples were aflame, her clit pulsing, her pussy drenched and yet starving for more.

  Jasper gave it to her, driving his cock home again and again until Maddie couldn’t breathe, couldn’t see, couldn’t do more than cry out and beg for release. He raised up, pulling her close to drive deeper into her body. She could feel him getting close, feel his rhythm increasing and his thrusts grow desperate.

  “Don’t pull out,” she moaned, her fingers clutching at his shoulders.

  “I’m going to come in you,” he promised. “Fuck, I’m going to come in you. Fuck!”

  Maddie peaked, his words pushing her over the edge. As she writhed, clenching him and screaming, he began to pulse his seed deep inside her body.

  Jasper gave a hoarse shout, gripping her hips and slamming into her body as he came. After nearly a dozen brutal thrusts, he slowed to a gradual halt. Maddie couldn’t think, much less move. Jasper crashed down onto her body, replete and exhausted.

  For the longest time, they simply lay and tried to breathe. Maddie was shaking all over, her body overloaded. Neither of them could move, and neither wanted to do so.

  When Jasper finally rolled to the side and withdrew from her body, Maddie gave a sigh that was half relief and half heartbreak. Understanding, Jasper pulled her into a tight embrace. Tucking his head against his mate’s nape, he gave a deep sigh. Maddie echoed him with soft mewl, and he gave her a gentle squeeze.

  No words were said, and none needed. They both lay quietly, their breathing gradually evening out until they passed into a deep and dreamless sleep.

  Chapter Seven

  Jasper came awake suddenly, his body already tense and ready to move. He remained still for a moment, a protective hand settling on Maddie’s still-sleeping form. Blinking against the softly slanting dawn, he struggled to focus. He cocked his head to listen, tuning out the soft sound of his mate’s breathing.

  No sound reached him now, but Jasper was sure he’d heard something. More than just a small animal, if it had put him on such high alert. He gave his mate a gentle shake.

  “Madd,” he whispered, “It’s time to get up.”

  Maddie’s head rolled back and she gave him a skeptical look. Glancing at the sun to ascertain the earliness of the hour, she frowned. She opened her mouth to refuse, but Jasper leaned close to shush her.

  “We have company,” he informed her.

  “The Edinburgh pack?” she asked, propping herself up on her elbows.

  “I certainly hope so,” he said. They got up, silently putting on their shoes and packing their gear.

  A few minutes later a large silver SUV pulled up by the loch, only thirty yards from their camp site. Jasper thought he must have been awakened by the movements of the scout who’d been sent out to find them this morning.

  Edinburgh Alpha Seamus and his mate Magda emerged from the car, followed by two huge Shifters. Jasper and Maddie grabbed their bags and headed down to meet the group.

  “Morning,” Seamus said, eyeing their bags and gear. “Nice night for a campout.”

  “It was,” Jasper agreed.

  “Thank you for letting us stay,” Maddie added. “We’ve been traveling so much, we barely get to shift.”

  “I can imagine there aren’t many safe places for us anymore,” Magda said, giving her mate a meaningful look. Seamus cleared his throat, then nodded.

  “Yes. That’s one of the reasons we’ve decided to join with you against the Legion,” the Alpha rumbled.

  Maddie gave Seamus and Magda a big grin, and even Jasper smiled at the announcement. Stepping forward, Jasper offered his hand to Seamus. The two shook, a moment of solidarity passing between them.

  Magda spoke up, nudging her mate with an elbow.

  “We were going to ask where you were traveling to next,” the older woman asked. “Somewhere close to here, I wonder?”

  “Inverness,” Madde responded.

  “Ach,” Seamus said, shaking his head. “John MacCrae is a very hard man to get a meeting with. Inverness is… less friendly than we are.”

  At Maddie’s raised brow, Magda laughed and chimed in.

  “Seamus would be happy to set up a meeting for you, to ease your way.”

  “Oh!” Maddie said, flashing another brilliant smile. “We would love that!”

  “It would be no problem,” Seamus said. After a moment of hesitation, he continued.

  “It�
�s not solicited, but can I give you a bit of advice?”

  “Of course,” Jasper said.

  “It may do you better to have your mate approach the packs and set up the meetings. A female is less threatening than an Alpha like yourself,” Seamus said, gesturing to indicate Jasper’s sizable frame.

  Jasper started to interrupt, but Maddie reached out to touch his hand. He stilled, waiting.

  “Then you can come into the meetings and explain your points, the way you did with us. All I’m saying is that you would have met with us a good bit earlier if you’d had your mate come to us first.”

  Jasper looked at Maddie, who gave a soft shrug. Nodding, he gave Seamus a short bow.

  “Thank you,” Jasper said. “We’ll try it.”

  “We have to be off,” the Alpha said, eyeing the morning sun. “Stay as long as you need, though.”

  “We’ll be leaving just after you,” Jasper said. “But thank you again.”

  “Best of luck,” Magda said, giving Maddie a wave. The males shook hands again, then the Edinburgh Shifters got back in their car and drove off.

  Maddie and Jasper shouldered their bags, retracing the short distance to their own rental car. As they walked, they discussed the outcome of the meeting.

  “Maybe they’re right,” Jasper said. “I wouldn’t want you to go alone, but you could definitely take point on setting up the meetings. If you wanted, that is.”

  “I do want!” Maddie exclaimed. “I want to be a bigger part of this. Plus it’ll take some of the burden from you. Like Seamus said, you can still do all the talking at the meetings. I’ll be there to tell my story if you need me to, but mostly I’ll just be background at that point.”

  “If it will make you feel better to take more of the workload, I won’t stop you,” Jasper said with a soft smile. Maddie laughed, grabbing his hand and pulling him to a stop. Leaning close, she offered up her mouth for a kiss.

  Jasper obliged, a soft chuckle escaping him. His mate truly was lovely, and he counted himself quite lucky that they’d found each other again.

  “You are always talking about how we’re a partnership,” Jasper said.

  “Us crazy modern women, with our outlandish ideas,” Maddie teased, releasing him and walking on. “I guess at least in these circumstances sexism can work in my favor.”

  “It had to happen eventually,” Jasper said with a laugh. They stopped at the car, piling the bags into the trunk.

  Maddie turned back to look at the loch and the now-sunlit castle ruins. Jasper slid his arm around her waist, pulling her close and dropping a kiss on her kiss before turning his attention to the scenery spread before them.

  “I guess there’s really only one more thing for us to figure out, then,” Maddie said, her voice quiet. Jasper tensed, wondering if this meant she wanted to talk about her recent requests for him to finish inside her during sex. It would be a heavy conversation, and he almost hated to ruin the beauty of the moment they were sharing just now.

  “What will that be?” he asked.

  Maddie tilted her head back to give him a teasing smile.

  “Do you think they have lots of castles at Inverness?” she asked. “I think I might like to… discover… another one. What do you think?”

  Jasper had to laugh at that. Pulling his mate fully into his arms, he kissed her deeply.

  “I’d like nothing more,” he said.

  The moment stretched for ages, just the two of them standing in the cool morning air as the sun rose all around them, lighting on the Scottish countryside. Jasper closed his eyes and breathed in Maddie’s scent, committing all the details to memory.

  Just then, Jasper knew that it would be a moment that he would remember forever.

  An Excerpt From Protection…

  “Hey guys,” Elly says, leaning forward to address Karen and Alejandro. “Thanks so much for breaking me out for the day. Is it cool if we keep this trip on the down low?”

  Karen and Alejandro both nod at her. I can see a glimmer of respect on Karen’s face; like me, I think she’s finding that Elly is pretty nice and grounded, for a celebrity.

  I mean, she’s still a fucking brat when she wants to be. But today she’s been pretty righteous.

  “Awesome,” she says. We pull up to the hotel and get ourselves inside. Karen drifts off to the other side of the lobby; I imagine she’s trying to be respectful of Elly’s space, not smother her with bodyguards everywhere she looks.

  We catch the elevator up to her floor, Elly humming along with the song playing in the background.

  “What is this?” I ask, glancing down at her.

  She cracks up.

  “Only my hit single,” she cackles. “You know, the song that’s paying all our salaries?”

  “Ah. Uh, sorry,” I say with a wince.

  “Not a fan, huh?” she says, but I can see she thinks it’s funny.

  “Not really my type of music.”

  She looks me up and down and snorts, walking out of the elevator. When we make it back into her hotel suite, I check my watch.

  “Plenty of time,” I say. “I’m going to get Lawrence outside your door while I go hit the showers. Gotta look fresh for your show, seeing as how I’m supposed to be your super sexy underwear model boyfriend.”

  “Is that what you’re going with?” Elly asks, grinning. “In your dreams, buddy.”

  “Jealous,” I shoot back, turning to leave.

  “Wait.”

  I turn and find her standing all too close.

  Leave now, I beg myself. Just make any excuse and fucking leave.

  “You’ve um,” she taps the side of her face, then beckons me closer. “You’ve got some fuzz or something…”

  She steps forward until she’s nearly pressed up against me, plucking a speck of lint from my hair, thumb brushing my jaw. She stares up at me, her eyes stunningly purple.

  This close up, all I can think is how small she is, petite and fragile. She looks larger than life on stage, striding around in sky high heels and wild feathered costumes, but right this minute she seems like she’d fit in my pocket.

  Or in my arms…

  “Today was nice…” I start to say, trying to break up the tension shivering between us.

  “Shut up, Connor,” Elly says.

  Then she’s up on her tiptoes, hands clutching my shoulders, lips brushing mine. I react on pure instinct, one hand cupping her jaw and the other sliding down her waist to bring her flush against my body. I’m beyond hard for her, have been all day, and she gives the tiniest gasp when she feels my cock against her belly.

  She makes a little sound against my lips, the same kind of mmmm she made earlier at the restaurant that drives me fucking wild. Savoring, I guess you could call it.

  Fuck, she likes this.

  The second I deepen the kiss, my tongue sliding against hers, she tenses up and pushes me away.

  “Oh god, I’m so sorry,” she says. She presses her fingers to her lips like she’s been scalded, looking mortified. “Sorry, sorry.”

  She whirls and runs for her bedroom, leaving me standing there like a jackass.

  What the fuck did I just let happen?

  Cursing my stupidity, I storm away from the suite.
