“Oh. You see, you make me forget what I was even doing.” She pulls away again to finish cleaning the mess. “I bumped a couple of eggs” she grumbles. Her sexy jean-clad ass is up in the air again. Fuck my cock is already so hard I can feel the zip from my jeans biting into it. I will need to get her out of here and back to our room as soon as possible or I’m going to take her up against the wall right here right now.
“Are you ready to leave yet?” I ask hoping she isn’t going to give me a hard time. She looks up at me in surprise as she throws the broken egg shells away.
“Well, if you can wait just a few minutes I just need to put the name on that birthday cake and then I will be able to leave. The client should be here to collect any minute now, it’s the mishap with the eggs that has delayed my icing.” Just then Lucy walks into the kitchen.
“The client is here for the birthday cake Gabriela” she calls out only then noticing me standing by the table. “Oh sorry, I didn’t see anyone else was in here.” I can see her cheeks heat up with embarrassment.
“It’s okay Lucy, I’m sure you remember Bjarni. He’s my boyfriend now, so I think you will be seeing more of him around.” Gabriela is smiling as she ices the name on the cake. The damn woman didn’t understand I wasn’t just her boyfriend but so much more.
“What she means is that I’m not just her boyfriend but her man, she is now my Old Lady.” Lucy’s smile widens as Gabriela laughs while she shakes her head. She picks up the now finished cake to take it outside to the client. As she turns her elbow hits a jug of milk that is standing in the corner of the table. If it wasn’t for my quick reflexes the milk would have tumbled to the floor. Gabriela just continues walking, not even noticing.
Lucy smiles at me as she shakes her head in amusement. Why did I get the feeling that this kind of thing happens a lot around my woman? Moving the jug to the centre of the table I take off after her. As I move around the counter I see a petite red-headed woman talking to Gabriela. The cake is now being held by the man standing next to her, I assume he’s the woman’s husband. Just then the woman places her hand on Gabriela’s arm as she’s preparing to leave.
Suddenly Gabriela has tensed, her face paling her eyes flickering closed. I have her away from the woman and against my side before the woman can even blink. “We need to be on our way.” I interrupt already pulling her away from the couple.
“Oh of course, thank you again it looks great.” The woman calls as they make their way out of the bakery.
“Look at me Baby Girl. What happened?” I ask feeling her tremble slightly in my arms. The colour in her cheeks is returning, but her eyes are a huge pit of sorrow. When I saw her reaction to the clients’ touch, all I wanted to do was to tear the woman to pieces for Gabriela’s pain. If they hadn’t left as quickly as they did I might have done something that I shouldn’t have.
“I thought I was better, that it had gone away. Draco, Wulf, Ceric, you and Jasmine touched me and I didn’t see anything. Now she touches me and I have a vision.” Her voice is soft and anguished. “I don’t understand.”
“We will figure it all out Baby Girl, I won’t let that happen again” I lower my head, placing my lips over hers, kissing her tenderly assuring her that I will protect her even from herself. My woman thought that she didn’t need protection, that she was fine alone. Well, I’m going to show her that no matter what, I’ll be by her side.
Chapter 9
Caelius was waiting for us when we arrived at the compound. Apparently something came up and they had an urgent meeting. Bjarni had left with Brandr and Caelius, leaving the prospects to accompany me inside.
Now that I was here I felt drained, I stupidly let my guard down thinking that because the others had touched me and I hadn’t had any visions I was fine. As soon as the woman touched me I felt the vision come over me. I saw her cowering on a bed as her husband beat her. The vision wasn’t long as Bjarni pulled me away from her touch, but it was enough to drain my energy.
As I’m about to make my way inside with Gunner and Sven, Jasmine walks outside. “You are back?” with that she makes her way towards us. Placing her arm through mine, she starts to pull me with her towards the wooded area.
“Jas where do you think you are going? You know you aren’t supposed to be outside without an escort,” Gunner asks as he follows us shaking his head. I notice Sven continues inside after nodding at Gunner.
“If Wulf knows you are walking outside unescorted, he will lose his shit. I’m also sure Bjarni wouldn’t be too happy about you being outside either. I’m quite sure that when he said you should rest as he was walking away, he meant rest in your room or inside.” He was still grumbling as we approach an open area with horses.
“I needed a walk and fresh air, besides we are not by ourselves. You are with us.” Gunner was shaking his head at her treachery.
“You are getting me into trouble, that’s what you are doing.”
“Oh nonsense, we will go in before anyone can find out that we are missing.” We stop near the horses and I see Jasmine lift a bag that I hadn’t even noticed she was carrying with her. Pulling out an apple she gives it to me, taking another one out for herself.
“Thank you, but I’m really not hungry.” I was about to give it back to her when she starts laughing.
“Not for you silly, for the horses.” At that she stretches out her hand towards one of the beautiful horses that is grazing nearby and starts to make clicking sounds. The horse lifts its head, seeing the apple, it makes its way towards us. I have never been so close to horses before, therefore I’m a bit apprehensive, but as I see the horse take the apple and as Jasmine starts to stroke its neck I begin to relax. I even stroke the horse on its flank, loving its smooth texture.
After feeding my own horse and stroking him, I feel much more relaxed, even energized. Even Gunner has lost his grumpiness and is stroking his own horse, until I see Wulf and Bjarni making their way towards us.
“Where’s your fucking mind letting her by the horses in her condition?” Wulf is scary when he’s angry but Jasmine doesn’t seem worried. She carries on stroking the horse, crooning to him as he starts to shy away at Wulf’s tone.
“I’m fine Babe, and stop growling at Gunner. He caught me coming here by myself and accompanied me with a lot of reluctance on his side.” Wulf has now pulled her towards him, hugging her head against his chest he places a hand on her protruding stomach and nuzzles her neck. I can see he’s talking to her but it’s so low that I can’t hear him. Whatever it is makes her smile. Lovingly she lifts her hand and strokes his hair as he continues to nuzzle her neck. It is amazing how he shows her affection in front of others without concern.
Suddenly I’m lifted off my feet and am being carried by Bjarni towards the compound. He doesn’t say a word. He just picks me up and starts walking. I gasp at the surprise but soon I am leaning my head against his shoulder. I don’t know what it is about him but when I’m in his arms I feel at peace, as if we are two parts of a puzzle that fit perfectly in every way.
Walking past the courtyard we find Cassius walking our way. “We are leaving in two hours brother.” Bjarni grunts but he doesn’t even slow down at his comment as we continue towards our room. Entering the room Bjarni places me on the bed; going back he locks the door before turning and leaning back against the door.
“Take off your clothes!” I can’t tell from his expression if he’s upset with me or not, he’s just leaning against the door seeming relaxed.
I ask, “Are you upset with me?”
He just grunts before repeating his command, reluctantly I dispose of my blue shirt before pulling down my black jeans. I’m sitting on the bed in my lacy blue bra and panties, I can feel my nipples puckering at his hungry stare.
“I want it all off, then lay down.” As soon as I lay down I hear him move towards me, I feel his hands on my ankles opening my legs wide and placing one on each side of his shoulders as he kisses first one then the other leg, over my thigh
until he reaches where I most want him. The first thing I feel is his lips on my clit, even though I’m expecting it I nearly lift right off the bed but his hands are on my waist holding me down while he licks, bites and kisses me.
“Please Bjarni!”
“Are you close Baby Girl?” his voice is low with a velvety tinge that flows over my skin.
“Yes, please Bjarni.” I feel first one finger enter my body, stroking my insides then another joins the first stretching me. I’m so close, just a few more strokes and I will be lost.
“Oh, oh … BJARNI” After catching my breath again, because I swear I must have passed out. Bjarni is kissing my neck, he’s now naked and I can feel his impressive cock rubbing against my stomach. As he moves down towards my breasts I feel his engorged head stroke a path down between my legs. The wetness left against my stomach from his juices making my breath catch again in wanting.
Stroking his back as he bites down on my nipple making me groan, I hold his head closer. My other hand wanders down his body until I have my hand around his thickness. His cock twitches in my hand as I tighten my hold.
His groan this time is deep and sexy like a wild animal when mating. I start to stroke up and down first slowly until he takes my lips with his, devouring my mouth until I can’t think just feel. I then pick up speed stroking and rotating my wrist.
“Woman stop, or I’m going to come!” His growl only makes me tighten my hold, his hips are pumping against my hand in a frenzied rhythm. But he suddenly tightens his hand around mine holding me still and pulling my hand away. He takes hold of himself stroking once before adjusting himself at my entrance.
“You drive me crazy, I want to lose myself in your sweet pussy.” That’s all the warning I get before he thrusts into me.
“Bjarni!” His thrusts are so powerful they are moving us up the bed with each one. I can already feel myself starting to lose control. I know that he’s also close as he starts to grunt, then he bites my nipple and I explode around him.
“Fuck! Fuck! … Gabriela.”
Bjarni grabs my ass and moves us around, until he’s lying flat on the bed and I’m on top of him without him slipping out of my body, I can feel him still hard. This man is a demon in bed, and I’m not going to complain.
“Things are heating up, I don’t want you ever to go out without an escort. Even if it’s only outside like today, you will always take one of the brothers or the prospects, but if possible, I want you with me at all times.” I’m still trying to catch my breath, he already seems to be ready for round three. His chest is hardly rising with his every breath and his thickness is twitching deep inside me.
“What do you mean heating up, am I in danger?” I lift my chin onto his chest and am now looking into his beautiful eyes that are a honey brown now. There’s a frown between his eyes. I know something must be upsetting him, because from when he had found me by the horses until now, he’s hardly spoken. It’s also strange how I can feel anger as if it’s coming from him, but it isn’t anything I can see. It’s more like something deep within me.
“I won’t let anything happen to you, you’re mine. But I need you to be careful always Baby Girl. If there is anything suspicious or that doesn’t feel right, you need to tell me. I must go out in a little bit, but I will only be away for a few hours. Wulf, Celmund and the prospects will be here, I want you to listen to them.” His voice is so serious that it frightens me. I can tell that what he’s going to go do is dangerous.
“Are you going to be in danger, please tell me? What if something happens?” I can hear the panic in my voice and my body is starting to shake in fear.
“No. I don’t want you to think like that. Listen to me Baby Girl, I will always come back to you. As Elementals, we can’t be away from each other for long or we start to feel the effects of loss. I have seen what it does when a couple are away from each other for too long without talking or touching. I won’t let you go through that, I need you to be strong always for me. Promise me that if you start to feel anxious or fear losing me, you will hang in there, never, never give up.” His voice is so serious I can feel the tears wanting to fall, but as he asks, I will be strong for him.
I can’t talk right now or he will hear the tears in my voice, so I simply nod. “Our bond is still growing, but with time we will feel the other’s emotions. Also your tattoo will burn or tingle if I’m in danger but that does not mean that I’m hurt so don’t panic.” He places his hands under my arms pulling me up his body until he takes my lips in a passionate kiss that leaves us both breathless.
Just then Bjarni’s phone beeps with an incoming message. Feeling him tense under me I know that our time has come to an end, and he will have to leave soon. “Let’s go shower Baby Girl, I have to leave soon.”
After the shower, we make our way to the garage where the men are gathered. Burkhart and Brandr are already sitting on their motorbikes. Draco is talking to Wulf and Celmund, most probably giving them last minute instructions as they’re staying behind, the others are starting to mount up as well. We got here just in time.
“Well, well look who has decided to join us. Brother, you must be feeling so light your bike will fly out of here today.” Brandr teases as we draw closer to the bikes.
“I think you might be wrong Brandr, I’m actually worried about him. I think his appetite has finally caught up to him. He’s become such a gluten for a specific delicacy that if he carries on eating like he’s been doing his jaw will start twitching every time he opens it.” Ceric banters back.
I can’t hold back my laughter, as they tease Bjarni. He smiles as he looks down at me. “Shall we show them how strong my jaw is Baby Girl?” Before I can comment his lips are on mine and oh boy, does he show them. I feel him lift one of his arms and know he must be showing them the finger as I hear the men laugh.
“Okay Lover Boy, let’s put your lips back on and let’s go.” Draco teases as he walks past us towards his bike and slaps Bjarni on the back. We draw apart and Bjarni makes his way towards his bike, preparing to leave. As the men start to pull away he looks at me and winks before he’s off.
“Gabriela.” I’m so engrossed in the men’s departure that I hadn’t heard Wulf draw closer to me. “Would you go spend some time with Jas today? I’m going to be busy and I don’t want her to be by herself. She’s been feeling tired lately and even though she says its normal and she’s fine, I’m still worried about her.” I’m stunned at how such a dangerous looking man can be so caring and considerate with his woman.
“Of course, I will, and don’t worry I’m sure she’s fine.”
“Thanks, now let’s get you inside.” We both made our way inside, I have been so engrossed in Bjarni’s departure that I hadn’t noticed Celmund leaving. In the courtyard Wulf leaves me to go into the computer room and I go looking for Jasmine.
“Hey, would you like some company?” I find her sitting in the entertainment area watching a baby program on the screen. Her feet are up on the couch and she has a mug of something in her hand.
“Hey Gabriela, sure come on in.”
“I hope that’s not coffee you’re drinking. I don’t think coffee is very good for pregnant woman.” I state looking at her mug. She laughs putting her tongue out at me.
“Its hot chocolate, do you really think I would get away with coffee. The guys are always checking up on me, let me tell you they are worse than women. The worst thing that happened was when Wulf purchased a book on the do’s and don’ts of pregnancy. I think all the guys had a turn at reading it, and now I don’t think there’s any do’s in pregnancy because the guys are always on my case about something.” At her grumbling, I laugh. I had noticed how the guys would run to help her with everything when Wulf wasn’t around. It was actually very sweet to see such dangerous looking men become real softies when Jasmine was around.
“Oh, you’re laughing. Wait until it’s your turn and then you will see, and Bjarni is one of the worst. He brought it up at one of their meeting
s that I was looking tired, so he didn’t think I should be cooking anymore. Can you believe it, from him, who is always ready to eat? And that just freaked Wulf out, as if he doesn’t have enough worry.”
That dampened my enjoyment, I hadn’t even thought about becoming pregnant. I was on the pill, but with them being different from other beings, would the pill work?
“Does the pill work with them?” At my sudden question Jasmin goes still with a confused look on her face.
“I don’t actually know, we will have to ask Bion. If it doesn’t, I’m sure he will be able to prescribe something. I will also need something after I have my baby.” We chat for a while until I hear my phone ring. Looking down at the screen I notice it’s an undisclosed number, only a handful of people have my number so I don’t know who this could be.
“Hello?” I wait but there is no reply on the other side. “Hello?” I ask again but no one speaks, looking down at the screen I see that the call is still connected. As I’m about to bring it back to my ear and ask who this is again the call is disconnected.
“Who was that?” Jasmine asks looking at my puzzled face.
“I don’t know, no one answered. I think it was probably a wrong number or a kid playing the fool.” Shrugging I place the phone back in my pocket. “I was hoping it was Bjarni, do you know where they went?” I’m worried about him, I had noticed that all the guys were carrying weapons when they left. I know that Bjarni and the other guys are outlaws, but from what I have heard since I got back into town they don’t mess around with the people in town. It’s a different story for the Keres MC; they have been known to create havoc wherever they go.
“I didn’t hear anything from any of the guys. I did ask Wulf when he told me he was staying behind but he tries to keep anything that might stress me quiet. Whatever it is might take some time, otherwise Wulf would have gone with them.”
“Doesn’t Wulf go with them when it takes a long time?”
