Out of the Storm

by Jillian Elizabeth

  Grabbing me close, he wraps his hands in my hair and brings my mouth to his. Kissing this man never gets old. The passion he throws into this one as our tongues dance and he takes control, it's the New Year's kiss every hopeless romantic waits for.

  “Let's say our goodbyes and get out of here please. I can't be in public with you much longer without embarrassing us both,” I say to him breathlessly.

  A look of amusement crosses his face, and he knows exactly why. “My kiss leave you wanting more, my sweet Starfish?” he questions with humor dancing in his eyes at my state of arousal.

  “You know what hearing you speak Italian and that accent as you roll your tongue does to me. I can almost feel it on my body,” I say, stepping up on my toes close to him and rubbing my nose along his neck. Boldly I scratch my fingernails across his sizeable manhood through his pants between our bodies.

  “Time to say goodbye, il mio amore,” he says quickly and harshly while pulling my fingers away and sucking them quickly into his mouth.

  On a moan of torture, I straighten myself and turn to hug all of our friends goodbye. My night and New Year are coming to an arousing end and so very soon.

  **********

  In a rush to get us out of there, Carter leans down and throws me over his shoulder. “I can get us there faster, Starfish. I have longer legs,” he says, smacking my ass.

  Giggling, I stick my hands in the back of his pants to feel his strong glutes flex as he all but runs us to our room. As we round the corner and he's running his hands up my dress, I feel that creepy feeling of being watched again.

  Turning my head, I see Ed standing at the end of the hallway shoving his dick into that girl's mouth. It's a little disturbing that he's making eye contact with me in that moment. What a creep. This guy is a cop? There is something not right with him. I don't want to make Carter paranoid unless I have reason to, but something is off. I can feel it. Turning my head, I’m glad when I'm suddenly pulled through the door of our room.

  I'm thrown down on the bed with a bounce, laughing as Carter is in my direct sight above me when I open my eyes.

  “Hi handsome,” I say as I watch his eyes move all over my face.

  “You're so beautiful. I'm the luckiest bastard on the planet to see you this way,” he says adoringly.

  Placing my hand on his cheek, I can feel the prickly stubble tickle my hand. Feeling him smile against my palm, I know one thing. I'm in trouble.

  He brings that chin down fast to my neck and digs it in right where he knows it tickles most. The stubble and his breath make it almost unbearable. I can’t stop the uncontrollable giggles and he has me trying to push him back and pulling my feet up to push him away like when I was younger. Rolling to the side, he stops the torture and pulls me with him. I smack him playfully on the chest. The jerk has always done that to me. But I love it.

  I sit up and he crunches up to face me. I grab his face between my hands and kiss him on those big kissable lips I've always loved.

  He stands up while holding me to him and never breaks our kiss. Setting me down outside the bathroom door, he pushes me through the door.

  “Bath time, my love,” he says in my ear and turns to start the large jacuzzi tub. He must see my pout as he turns around. Walking to me, he turns me around and starts unzipping my dress. I lift my long hair up as he does.

  “Don't worry Starfish, I'm joining you,” he says meeting my eyes in the mirror on a wink.

  “Oh…..good,” I say pulling my one arm from my dress and letting it drop to the floor.

  “You….are….sensational.” He grabs me by the sides of my panties and pulls me to him in a quick tug my legs don't quite keep up with. Crashing into him, I feel his hardness. My panties are suddenly pulled away from my body, and I'm left standing in my black strapless bra, my black thigh highs with my new steel still sticking out, and my heels.

  Feeling bold, I turn around and face the mirror as he sits on the edge of the tub, his eyes smoldering as he stares me down. He's intense, and I'm getting lost in his gaze in the mirror as I reach behind me and unsnap my strapless bra. My small breasts stand at attention as my nipples start to pucker under his gaze in the mirror. I hold his gaze as I hold my right arm out and drop it to the floor.

  Turning back around, I hold his stare and walk to him. Pulling at his tie, I pull his head to my breasts. He grabs both in his hands and brings the left nipple to his mouth. Still holding my gaze, I shiver under the intensity running through me at the feel of his rough hands and stubble against my soft skin.

  Pulling his tie free of his collar, I tie my hair back with it just as he grabs my other breast. Throwing my head back, I begin to feel for the buttons of his shirt to unbutton them, as his sucking intensity increases moving up from my chest to my neck.

  Getting his shirt undone, I pull it down his shoulders and leave it there. Shaking my head at him when he starts to unbutton his cuffs at his wrists, I step back and drop to my knees between his open thighs.

  Running my fingernails over his large muscular thighs, I feel them tighten under my touch. Moving my hands in on both sides at his hips, I hold his smolder with my own and both free his button and unzip his dress pants. Pulling his pants open, I reach into his sexy black boxer briefs and pull his large hardness from its confines.

  “Starfish,” he says on a sigh. He tries to reach for me but is limited with his shirt pulled down over his arms.

  “Shhhhhh…..let me give him a kiss.” I lick up his hard shaft straining with the veins to the soft velvety tip. Seeing his eyes roll back as I take it in my mouth for a small suck around it's softness makes me feel bold. Letting my hands join the party, I work him with my mouth and slide my hands up and down his smooth cock.

  Standing up, he reaches down and pulls me to my feet. “No more playtime, Starfish. It's bath time and I don't want to blow this party outside that sweet pussy of yours,” he says shrugging out of his shirt. That sneaky detective unbuttoned those cuffs somehow while I was busy working him over.

  “Lose those sexy heels,” he says, pulling the gun from my thigh and setting it on the counter. “Leave the thigh highs on sweetness, I want them on in the tub with us.”

  “But…” I start but he shushes me with his mouth roughly on mine.

  “Leave them on,” he says against my mouth as he pulls his sexy wife beater over his head and pulls his pants down.

  “Get in the tub, Starfish, I'll be right in.” He removes his boxers as I turn to climb in. He turns around and grabs the bubbles off the counter and runs them under the water as the tub still fills.

  Settling in on one side of the large tub, I let the warm water cascade over my body as I sink in.

  “This feels incredible, you better get in here,” I say, holding his gaze as he removes his socks and walks with his long powerful stride to the tub. The water sloshes over my breasts as he climbs in and settles across from me on the other side of the tub. “Why are you so far away?” I ask on a pout as he turns and shuts the water off.

  Giving me that predatory gaze again, I feel him run his hands up my thighs and over my thigh highs.

  “Hang on to the edge of the tub mio amore and don't let go.”

  Just as I'm about to question him, I feel his hands under my ass as he lifts my hips and slides over to me in the tub. The water sloshes with his movement, but the tub isn't full enough to slosh over the sides. Raising my hips to the level of his face, he looks me in the eyes as he licks up my seam.

  “Oh God,” I moan as I throw my head back. My hair is touching the water, but the rest of it is now below me as I'm level with the top of the large tub.

  “Eyes,” he commands as I feel his tongue probe my entrance.

  Looking down the line of my body, I meet his eyes as he sucks my hard nub with those large pouty lips of his. I think I'm soaring to heaven with every lick and suck. It's a beautiful picture to see those dark intense eyes on mine and his full head of dark hair between my thigh high clad legs. He knew what h
e wanted in this tub when he wanted them on, it's hot as hell.

  My hips start to roll as I ride his face with each wave of ecstasy that rolls through me. I'm climbing so high, and he pulls away just as I'm about to explode. I try to reach for him and almost topple myself off balance to submerge head first in the water.

  On a laugh he returns to my throbbing pussy and sucks hard around my clit. I see stars, I'm moaning and screaming his name as I shamelessly rock my hips into his mouth.

  “That's it, baby, let go for me. You taste so fucking good, I've been waiting all night to taste this sweet fucking pussy of yours,” he says against my wet lips, returning to suck my sensitive flesh, letting me ride out my orgasm on his face. He gently sucks and licks my pussy and it throbs and quivers from his touch as I come down.

  Settling my ass back down into the water, he pulls me to his lap straddling his thighs.

  “Not here, Carter,” I say breathlessly as I feel his hardness begging for entrance. “I want the bed,” I say looking down into his eyes.

  “As you wish, sweet Starfish,” he says as he reaches next to the tub for a towel. Standing back up holding us both, he steps out onto the bath mat. Settling me down he runs the towel down my body, pampering me and drying me off. Taking the towel to his own body, he dries off then throws it to the floor as he pulls me out of the bathroom to the awaiting plush bed in our room. It's only then that I notice all the candles. There are about twenty candles lit on all different surfaces around the room, flickering against the darkness. It's so beautiful.

  “You did this?” I question, turning around to see them all.

  He just shrugs and pulls me to the bed. Laying me down, he grabs the top of one thigh high and begins to roll it down my leg removing it. Repeating with the other, he throws them to the floor and climbs on top of me. Settling between my thighs, he hikes one of my legs over his hip as my foot meets his muscular ass.

  Holding my gaze, he leans down and kisses me. What starts as a sweet, yet demanding kiss soon turns hot and passionate, as I find my hips rocking against his hardness, waiting for him to enter me.

  Pulling back, he settles his arms on both sides of me. “So damn beautiful,” he says as he pulls himself up and enters me slowly.

  This is a stark contrast to our earlier hurried lovemaking. This is slow and passionate, like our own seductive dance on the bed. He rolls his hips slowly, his pelvic bone hitting me deliciously against my hard nub.

  I roll my hips with his. “Carter,” I moan out as I scratch at his muscular back never having him close enough.

  He drops his arms down so his chest now rests against mine, increasing his rhythm as I feel him so much deeper. It's a delicious feeling as he rubs me inside just at that right spot. Pulling my leg higher on his hip, I feel him deeper still. I feel the quickening in my stomach as my orgasm starts to roll through me. Rolling my hips more into his, he increases as he feels me tighten around him.

  “Oh goddamn, Starfish, you feel so incredible.” He's fighting to hold his own orgasm at bay but continues to pound into me punishingly now as I scream in ecstasy. I feel him finally let go as he throws his head back on a roar, his neck muscles protruding and his arms shaking at my sides. He lowers his face to mine and takes my lips with his, his tongue slowly dancing with mine as he slowly gyrates his hips pulling himself in and out leisurely.

  Rolling to his side, he takes me with him still inside me. We haven't used protection since we first got back together. He got himself checked regularly after all his romping around when I was with Trent. And Trent was the only other man I was ever with besides Carter. He was my first, and now he will be my last.

  I had myself checked while I was in the hospital after the accident. I've been taking the pill regularly ever since, and never want any barriers between Carter and me ever again. I never realized how incredible making love to him was until I thought I may never have him back again.

  He runs his hands up and down my back. “Come back to me, Starfish, you're thinking so far away,” he says against my neck.

  I don't know how he always knows where my thoughts are far, but he does. He's connected to me in ways I'll never understand. And I don't care. He's all I'll ever need.

  Chapter 6

  Carter

  Laying here with her is the best feeling in the world. As long as I can hold her forever, the rest of the world can stop. I spent too much time away from her doing stupid shit. Never again.

  I have one more trick up my sleeve for her tonight before we turn in. I planned for this night for months now and I hope this is one she didn't see coming tonight.

  Kissing her forehead, I pull myself out of her. God, that was torturous...I just want to live there. My sweet, sweet heaven.

  “Where are you going?” She sits up as I walk to the bathroom to get her a washcloth.

  “It's time for me to clean you up.”

  Lying at the end of the bed, pulling the pillow to her chest, she watches me. Her hair is thrown over her shoulder, her bright sparkling blue eyes are catching the candle glow. Happily sated and delicious is how she looks. She's truly breathtaking, my inspiration for life. She breathes her life into me daily and keeps me sane, makes sure I don't do anything stupid on the job so I make it back home. Back home to her.

  Going into the bathroom, I grab a washcloth from the rack and turn the water on. While it's on and running to get it just warm enough, I go in search of my suit jacket I tossed earlier.

  Looking back, I see she's waiting. I grab my suit jacket quickly and locate the treasure inside. Back at the sink I check the temperature of the water, perfect. I run the washcloth under it, squeeze the excess water out, and go to her.

  She holds my eyes as I walk to her, my sweet little queen. The small velvet box is small enough to hide in my large hands, so she doesn't see it just yet.

  “Open those sweet thighs, my love,” I tell her as I go about cleaning her from our lovemaking.

  The sounds of her moans as she feels the warm washcloth brush against her still sensitive pussy nearly have me back on the bed dirtying her all over again.

  Jesus, she tortures me. I need to keep my mind on the plan ahead, at least for the moment. I need to get this done. I don't think she won't say yes, but it still scares me shitless.

  Tossing the washcloth across the room, I go to the end of the bed. She sits up and wraps her arms around me, kissing my lips and moving to my neck. My girl wants more. Oh, she will get more. But first she wears my ring.

  I run my hands through her hair as she continues her torture of my neck and ears. Those are damn sensitive spots. She knows exactly what she's doing to me to get what she wants. The little minx.

  Tightening my grip on her hair, I pull her head back gently so she looks in my eyes.

  “Starfish, I need to talk to you and then I'm all yours to ride into the sunset.”

  She snorts a small laugh and sits up just wrapping her arms around my neck at arm’s length.

  “I want us to start our new year right. I want to start this new year different than we ever have.

  I've never not loved you. I've never not craved your touch, your love, your friendship.

  As we start this new year, I want to mark a new journey for you and me. The last few years we have come so far, both together and individually. I love you Andrea, my Starfish, so much it hurts.”

  Placing her hand over my heart, her eyes follow her hand and mine covering hers. “This beats for you, only you. Be mine, Starfish, be mine always. Be my wife, marry me and make me the luckiest fucker to ever walk the earth.”

  Tears brim in her eyes as she looks back up to me and then back down at the ring I've just pulled from behind her back. As tears cascade down her cheeks, she launches herself at me. Grabbing my face on both sides, she pulls my mouth to hers in a kiss so fierce, I think she may draw blood. I feel her tears still cascading down her cheeks against mine as she throws her soul into it.

  Flipping her to her back, I look into her ey
es and beg her for an answer with mine. She nods her head up and down quickly with the most beautiful smile on her face, her blue eyes shining with happiness and her dimples on full display.

  Taking her left hand, I kiss it and place it back to my heart. We both watch as I slide the perfect one carat white gold Cathedral solitaire beauty on her finger. Her eyes shine to mine as she looks to the diamond sparkling on her finger dancing in the candle light.

  My Starfish, my world, just made me the happiest man alive.
