I woke up sweating, I was panting heavily, I was slung back into another terrifying nightmare mixed with my earlier encounter with Luke, I ran like a baby into the bathroom as I did every night and threw my pyjamas onto the floor. I switched on the stream of water wanting to wash away the images that were flashing in front of my eyes, it wasn’t just Greg and me that was covered in blood, Dylan and Luke were also both bleeding. I really didn’t think my nightmares could get any worse, I was so wrong about that. When I got back into bed I was still shaking and crying, I couldn’t take much more of this. I rolled over and closed my tear-filled eyes.
When I woke in the morning I was still feeling guilty about Dylan, he really did try to protect me, and I loved him more and more for giving it a go. I looked into the mirror, my eyes were all puffy, and blood shot. I grabbed a flannel and ran it under the cold-water tap, I lay it across my eyes, I couldn’t turn up to work looking like this. I headed downstairs and grabbed a coffee. I got the flannel cold again and reapplied it to my face. By the time I had finished my eyes had gone down a bit, so I got ready to go to work, I was so happy I didn’t have the coffee shop today, I was going to go and sit by the lake for the afternoon. It was such a calm place to sit and think. This is what I really needed.
I got to work and Rachel was outside waiting for me.
“Morning Rachel.”
“Morning Jasmine.” She came up to me and gave me a hug.
“How’s Dylan this morning?”
“Sore, his ribs are black and blue, he has a right shiner on his left eye, but he will be fine under the tender care of me.” I appreciated that she was trying to make light of the situation for me, but I was still really worried about him, I was sure that this was the only fight he had ever been in, he had nothing to prove to anyone, so fighting never came up in his life.
“How are you doing?”
“Sick, I feel as though I have been kicked in the gut, but I am a survivor, give me a few days and I will be back to normal.”
“Dylan said you’re a fighter and that you are the strongest person he had ever met. Your heart is pure Jasmine.”
“Thanks Rachel, I am going to skip lunch, I just want to go for a ride instead, clear the cobwebs out, you know.”
“That’s cool, I get it, I will catch up with you tomorrow.”
“Look after yourself and Dylan please.”
“I will don’t worry. Now go.” I gave her a smile and went off to get changed. I got to my van and started to load it up, the sooner I got back the sooner I could sit by the lake and sort my head out.
Finally, I had made all my deliveries. Now I can go sit out and enjoy the sound of the birds in the trees. I got changed and slipped into my riding gear, I straddled the bike and turned on the lovely purring engine, enjoying the beautiful rumble between my thighs. This was it, I headed out taking it nice, and slow, I was taking in all of my surroundings. When I reached the lake, I took my gear off and sat down on my now very familiar patch of turf. I laid back and looked at the beautiful sky letting myself drift off in my peaceful surroundings.
I woke up with a fright. All I saw were two big blue eyes staring down at me.
“Luke what the hell are you doing here? Are you following me?”
“Yes.”
“You need help, go away, and leave me alone.”
“But I want to talk to you.”
“Listen to me. I don’t want to talk to you.” I stood up to grab my riding gear. He grabbed my arm.
“I am warning you Luke, let go of me.”
“You can’t hurt me anymore.”
“Are you quite sure about that? It was your choice to leave me, remember? You got what you were after and then left me.” I pulled my arm out of his grip.
“That’s why I have to talk to you.” As I grabbed my trousers, he pulled me to the floor and proceeded to sit on me.
“What do you think you are playing at? Get off me now.” I felt so angry, much more than last night.
“I will only get off you when you are ready to listen to me.”
“Forget it Luke.” He was confusing my mind, I couldn’t take it any longer. He was the most perfect man I had ever met apart from Greg. He always smelled heavenly, he made my knees go weak. I couldn’t understand him treating me like a whore.
“Get off me now.” I screamed at him, but he wouldn’t get off me. I tried to wiggle free but it was no use. Making a fist, I lifted my right arm, wham, I punched him right in the face. “Now let me make myself perfectly clear. Leave me the fuck alone.” My heart was beating so fast I thought I might have a heart attack. My knuckle was burning from me hitting his jaw with so much force. My body was trembling. I was ready to cry at any moment. He got my arms and pinned them above my head. I turned my head away from him. I couldn’t bear to look at him.
“I am not leaving or letting go of you until you hear me out, I will follow you around wherever you go. You can’t escape me, so why don’t you just give me five minutes of your time so I can talk to you.” He was leaving me with no choices. I was laid on the floor with Luke pinning me down. If I talked to him, maybe he would leave me alone and I could put the shattered pieces of my life back together.
“Well it seems like you have left me little choice, to say that you are sat on me.”
“Thank you Jasmine.”
“I wouldn’t thank me just yet. You said you needed five minutes of my undivided attention, well now you have it so get talking so I can get on with my life.” I heard him take a deep breath in, and I did the same.
“Jasmine, I love you.”
“You have said that already, you are so full of bull, it is beyond belief.” I had tears ready to fall from my eyes. I was shaking with anger. He was breaking my heart in two.
“Look at me Jasmine.”
“No, I said I would give you five minutes. I never said I would look at you.”
“But I really do love you.”
“You have a funny way of showing it.”
“I know I behaved badly, but I was confused.”
“What sick joke are you trying to play? You got what you wanted from me. You enjoyed the chase I get it, how many women are out there, victims of Luke and his thrill seeking ways?” I closed my eyes, I couldn’t take any more of this, tears were now rolling freely down my face. He handed me a tissue.
“It isn’t like that, I swear it.”
“Pull the other one, I don’t want anything more to do with you, now leave me alone.”
“This is hard for me to say, I have never had nor ever wanted a girlfriend before. The concept just didn’t appeal to me.” Now I knew he must be playing with me, this was getting so confusing, why can’t he just move on and leave me alone?
“Maybe you have never had a girlfriend, but you have had a lot of one night stands, I know your game, you are all about the thrill of the chase.”
“I have never in my life had a one night stand.”
“I did a search on you. Every image that came up was you with a beauty on your arm, not one picture of you alone. You lie.”
“I am not lying, I swear, I can explain this.” I still couldn’t turn round to face him. Oh, I can’t wait to hear this.
“Yes, you are right, I always had a girl for this function or for that charity event but they were never my girlfriends, I don’t know how to say this.” I heard him taking in another deep breath “they were my submissives. I am saying this all wrong, I don’t know how to say it so you can understand?” I turned my head. I was looking directly into his eyes.
“I am not a child Luke. I know what a submissive is. Well sort of, I have dabbled in it so to speak, I don’t understand the ins and outs of it from a non-girlfriend point of view, but that would make you a dominant then?”
“Yes, you do understand, see so I don’t know what to do. I have broken all of my own rules with you. I am a learner at this vanilla thing.” His whole posture changed, you could see him visibly relax.
“So what are you
saying?”
“I am trying to ask you to be my girlfriend, but just remember I am not used to this, you will have to be patient with me, I know I made a mistake, but I came here to tell you I was sorry for behaving so badly, please forgive me.” He got off me and I sat upright, I bent my knees and wrapped my arms around them.
“You need to explain more. I don’t know the difference from a girlfriend verses a submissive.”
“There are many differences.”
“Well I am glad we cleared that one up, not!”
“Jasmine!”
“I need to know, what the differences are.”
“I will give you a very brief rundown of the top things, ok?”
“Fine.”
“My submissives were at my house, from 8:00 Friday evening until 1:00 Sunday afternoon. I provided all clothing necessary for the weekend. If we had a function to go to, I would make sure appropriate attire was provided. They had their own bedroom, I never shared a bed with a submissive. That’s why I got confused. And most importantly I never broke my one golden rule.”
“What was your one golden rule then?” I said sarcastically.
“I never kissed my submissives on the lips.”
“What never?” Can this be right? He never kissed on the lips, well that means that I was maybe the first.
“Never ever. You are the first girl I have ever kissed on the lips in my life.” He moved around to sit in front of me. I looked deep into his eyes. I was finding it hard to think straight. He moved in even closer. He then moved his lips to mine, I hesitated, his kiss was soft and tender but I couldn’t reciprocate, I had totally fallen for him but should I? Or could I trust him with my heart? I just didn’t know. He pulled away and I turned my head away.
“Look at me Jasmine.” My eyes travelled up to his. “What are you thinking?”
“I am thinking whether I can trust you with something so precious as my heart, I have lost so much already, I don’t know whether I can go through it again so soon.”
“Give me a chance to make amends, I swear, I will do my utmost to never hurt you again intentionally.”
“What’s to stop you getting confused again?”
“I am not easily rattled Jasmine. I love you with all my heart, I have loved you since the first time I saw you.” He leaned in for another kiss. My mind was going crazy, I didn’t know what to do. He leaned into me again, I lay my legs flat on the ground, and he took the opportunity to slide his body over them. He moved in even closer, my head was racing around and around. I felt so confused as to what to do for the best, he was so close it was distracting.
Chapter 20
I traced his lips with my finger and looked into his deep blue eyes. I had tears rolling down my face. He placed his hot, soft, tender lips on mine, he moved in even closer still, I met his kiss and he ran his fingers through my hair, it felt heavenly, I still had tears falling from my eyes, but now they were tears of joy and relief. He moved off my knee and then he put one arm around my waist and pulled me onto his knee, I straddled him. Now I was his, it was like a hypnotic trance. He started laying tender kisses around to the nape of my neck. I ran my hands up to his biceps and back down again. I could feel his lean muscles though his shirt, I ran my hands around his back, the build-up was gathering momentum within me. I started to undo his shirt, my need was, growing by the second, he put his hand on mine and stopped me in my tracks.
“Let’s go back to my place, to finish this.” There was no way in hell I was losing this moment in time. I thought.
“Take me now or not at all.” I started kissing all around his face, I felt like an animal on heat, I needed him inside me right here, right now.
“But what if someone see’s us?”
“So what. Do you really think I care about someone watching us?” I climbed off his knee and unfastened the button on my trousers, his eyes lit up. I started to unzip them slowly. I was going to make him watch me. I wanted his need to match mine. When they dropped to the floor my skimpy black nickers were now on full show. I took my jumper off to reveal a small strappy t-shirt then I walked back over to him, I straddled his knees.
“Jesus Jasmine, you’re going to be freezing.”
“Well I suggest you had better start warming me up then.”
I started kissing him again, making short work of the rest of his buttons. Once his shirt was undone I pushed him down to lie flat on the grass, I proceeded to bite his chest, I licked around his hardened nipples, teasing them with my tongue. I was sucking and biting on his chest that hard his breath caught in his throat. I ran my hands around his hot chest and arms. I let my hand run down to his crotch. He was now as needy as me, I undid his button and slowly pulled down his zip down, I reached in and released his full length from his boxers. He sat back up and bit my neck.
“That’s it, bite me.” I leaned my head back slightly to allow him better access.
“Jasmine you are so damn hot, I am sorry for hurting you.” I looked at him.
“Well show me that you mean it then.” He grabbed hold of my hair and bunched it together, gently he pulled my head back, he continued to kiss and bite my neck. “That’s it, show me how hungry you really are, make me feel your need for me.”
He reached down into his pocket and pulled out a foil condom packet, I took it off him and ripped it open with my teeth, slowly rolling it down his long length. I moved my already moist pants to the side and took him inside me all at once, god it felt good. I squealed with the pain and delight. He bent his legs to support my back, I leaned back again them and wrapped my arms around for added stability, I pushed my bust upwards as I leaned back, I started to rhythmically move my pelvis. I moved forward slightly, he was now all the way to the hilt. He was kissing around the small bits of bust sticking out of my t-shirt. I moved and straightened myself up, he lifted my t-shirt off over my head, now more of my bust was showing for his pleasure. He worked his magic mouth around the exposed portions of my chest. I could feel his hot mouth showering me with love. He lifted his head up and I took the opportunity to have yet another one of his very sexy kisses. This was getting more and more exciting by the second, I could hear the birds in the trees singing along to our love, the grasses around us moving and swaying in the cool breeze. I positioned myself into the right place and started to move up and down. God he was big, he was taking my breath away with every downward thrust, it was so thrilling to be outside with this man, he was inside me and I couldn’t care less if we were seen or not, our passion couldn’t be stopped, there were no limitations.
I rolled my hips around in circles and sped up my pace, he moved one hand down and started playing with my clit, his finger making soft movements around and around. I was nearing my orgasm. I put one hand on his shoulder. I leaned forward slightly and that was my undoing. I screamed out in pleasure as it flowed through my body, the birds let out a sharp screaming noise at the exact same time as me, as if to celebrate our union. As my muscles tightened around his length I felt him swelling even more.
“Your turn now babe.” I whispered. On cue, he followed me. My words were all that was needed to spark him off. I rested my head on his shoulder, I need to regain control of my breathing, as I sat up I had a single tear running down my cheek, he wiped it away with his finger, he held my chin and kissed me. I gazed into to his eyes.
“You are all mine Jasmine Williams.”
“I am all yours Luke Heart. Luke you are all mine, god help you if you ever break my heart again.”
“I am all yours Jasmine, and I will never intentionally ever think of breaking your heart again.” For some unfathomable reason we both needed to hear the words out loud to reconnect our newly formed bond for each other. It was very comforting. I wiggled free and stood up. I grabbed my trousers and put them back on, he tied off the condom and placed it in his pocket, I finished getting dressed and sat down next to him on the grass. He placed his arm around my waist.
“You are a bad influence on me Jasmine, I us
ed to be a respectable man.”
“Good I am glad, respectable is over rated.” We started laughing together. I lay in his arms watching the clouds roll by. I never wanted to let him go, now he was mine, and only mine. As the night drew in we made a move, I looked at his chest, I had given him a love bite just above one of his nipples, I moved over and kissed it, I had a smile on my face, shit he really was mine.
I got my bike gear on and Luke followed me back home in the car. I locked the motorbike up as Luke pulled up into the driveway behind me, he got out of the car and hesitated.
“Are you coming in?”
“If you want me too, I will.”
“I do want you too.”
“But what about Dylan, what will he say?”
“About what?”
“The fight.”
“From what I can tell, you both came out of it with about the same amount of injuries, he will be fine, don’t worry.” I reached up onto my tiptoes and gave him a kiss.
“I really do love you Jasmine.”
“And I love you too, now stop stalling and come on in.” I took his hand and unlocked the door, Dylan was sat on the sofa.
“Hi Dylan, how are you doing?” He turned around and looked at me with anger and disappointment in his face.
“Dylan Fisher don’t you even think of starting with me, I am warning you.” I felt quite pissed that he was going to try and give me some attitude, I didn’t ask him to fight on my behalf, he did that on his own back.
“Come on Luke let’s get a drink.” We walked into the kitchen and I put the kettle on. Someone had got the flowers out of the bin and put them in a pint glass for me, this had to be Rachel’s handy work, god she was a good friend. Luke walked up behind me and wrapped his hands around my waist. He was nuzzling my neck.
“Don’t be hard on him, he was only trying to protect you.”
