As she pushed the shirt opened she softly kissed his chest and she pushed the shirt over his shoulders before it slipped down his arms. Cole reached behind himself and pulled it over his hands and let it fall to the floor.
Ally stood for a moment, watching him from beneath her long lashes before she dropped her hands from his firm chest to the waist band of his trousers. She opened the button and slowly eased the zipper down. Slipping her hands inside his trousers she let her finger tips brush against himself briefly making him take in a sharp shot of breath. He was struggling harder and harder to control himself. He wanted her. NOW!
Without thinking, he raised a hand to touch her breast.
She put her hands up and backed away. "Are you going to behave? Or is this game over?" she said almost petulantly. She raised an eyebrow and gave him a smirk.
Cole clenched his jaw and lowered his hands dutifully to his sides. He tried some deep breaths to keep his raging desire in check. He had never been so turned on.
She returned to his trousers moving her hands inside to the back and pushed them along with his boxers down over his back side, sending them crashing to the floor. Dropping to her knees in front of him, she took hold of his cock in her hands and began to stroke is gently.
“Jesus, Ally!” he moaned loudly, his eyes never leaving her. She flicked her eyes back up to his as she licked the tip of his swollen cock before taking is into her mouth.
He watched her as she knelt before him, fishnet stockings, high heeled shoes and her beautiful black lingerie as she took him in her mouth. It was a vision he would remember until the day he died. She was everything a man could want and more. She was perfection.
She took him deep into her mouth, her tongue flicking his cock as she slid up and down his entire length, while he gently thrust into her.
He wanted to close his eyes and enjoy every moment of this, but he couldn’t seem to take his eyes off her as she took him deeper and deeper.
“Ally,” he moaned loudly. “I don’t want to come in your mouth. I want to bury my cock inside you, please, enough.”
Ally released him from her mouth and smiled before she stood back up.
“Get on the bed,” she instructed. Cole stepped out of his trousers, kicking off his shoes and slipping his socks off his feet in the process, and lay on the bed as he was ordered to do. As he reclined, propped on his elbows, he watched her as she unhooked her bra, slowly letting it slip down her arms and falling to the floor. Then hooking her fingers inside her thong, carefully slid them down her legs, over her stockings and her shoes.
“Don’t take the stocking or shoes off,” he pleaded and she smiled. She walked towards the bed and she knew he was struggling hard. He wanted her and it was the most powerful feeling in the world. She watched as his cock pulsed and jumped with her every move displaying it's own excitement and need.
She climbed up on the bed and quickly moved to straddle Cole. Reaching forward she took his hands and lifted them above his head. Her breast slowly trailed across his face as she stretched over him. He reach up with his mouth and teased her hard nipple with his tongue but she pulled it out of his reach and laughed wickedly.
“Don’t move your hands,” she instructed as she slowly sat back up. Lifting herself up off him slightly, she positioned his now rock hard cock against her opening. Then letting her eyes meet his, gradually sliding down, taking his entire length inside her. She cried out as he filled her deeply.
She began to move above him, grinding into him hard, pushing him into her deeper and deeper. She closed her eyes as she rocked back and forward. The pleasure growing quickly inside her.
Her pace quickened and her breathe became more ragged as a thin layer of sweat covered her body, her heart hammering harder and harder in her chest.
She locked her eyes with his and she knew he was near the edge. She wanted to make this last as long as she could. So she slowed down, pulling almost all the way up. With the tiniest of pulses she teased the head of his cock, almost driving him insane with pleasure,
“Jesus, Ally!” he cried out loudly, It took every ounce of his strength not to grabbed her fuck her with everything he had.
Then, suddenly she slammed down, taking his entire length inside her, as they both cry out in unison. Lost in the pleasure she felt from having complete control of this gorgeously addictive man, she pulled up and paused before she slammed down on to him once again.
Unable to hold herself up any longer, she reached for his chest to balance herself as the need in her for him grew.
He lay there beneath her, watching her move above him, lost in her desire and it took every ounce of his strength not to reach up and touch her. He resisted for as long as he could. But it was proving too hard.
“Ally, I need to touch you,” he pleaded when he could resist no longer. She let her eyes meet his and a smile gave him the permission he longed for.
He reached up and grabbed her hips pulling her closer to him as he began to thrust up into her harder and harder.
“OH GOD, COLE!” She cried out as she began to ride him harder. She was close.
“That’s it, baby” he growled and his thrusts became faster and faster. He was close too. “Ally, come for me baby.”
She threw her head back and shook, as her orgasm ripped through her body. Cole found his release as he called out her name. Ally collapsed down on his chest, completely exhausted, gasping for air.
“I’m sorry for upsetting you earlier,” she said when she finally caught her breath enough to be able to speak.
“Ally,” Cole replied still a little breathlessly. “If this is your idea of an apology, you can upset me any time.”
Ally smiled as she lifted her head and looked at Cole.
“I do love you,” she whispered softly. “You know that, right?”
“I know,” he reassured her with a smile. He traced his fingertips down her face and across her lips “And I love you, too, gorgeous girl. So much more than you could possibly know.”
Chapter 20
Cole woke Ally the next morning with a soft kiss on the mouth. When her eyes flickered opened she found a fully dressed Cole sitting on the edge of the bed smiling down at her.
“Good morning, sleepy head,” he said with a broad smile. “I am sorry for waking you so early, but I didn’t want to leave without saying goodbye.”
“You are leaving already?” Ally asked, sitting up in the bed.
“I am afraid so. I have a meeting at the London office at ten.”
“Oh, okay” Ally said and tried not to show her disappointment on her face. She didn’t want him to go yet. She was going to miss him and it surprised her how much her heart was aching at the thought of him leaving.
“I’ll miss you, too,” he said as if he was reading her mind. “I’ll call you this evening, and I’ll meet you at the party tomorrow. Have a great time at the spa. And please be careful.”
“I promise, I will,” she smiled up at him. He leaned down and kissed her hard one more time. He stood up off the bed and looked down at Ally.
“Liam will be back to drop you to work,” Cole reminded her once again “And he will collect you this evening, too. He will give you his number before he drops you off. If you need him for anything today, you call him. He has been told to be on stand.”
“Okay,” Ally replied, resisting the urge to tell him he was being overly cautious.
“I love you,” he smiled brightly, but Ally could see the worry on his face.
“I love you, too,” she replied as he walked to the door. He turned back and gave her one last grin, and he was gone. Ally slumped back into the bed. She was almost sorry she hadn’t agreed to go with him to London now. She kicked the duvet back and climbed out of bed and headed to the bathroom for a shower.
Two hours later Liam pulled up outside Gus’s. Once they had stopped he turned back to Ally and handed her a card.
“This has my cell number on it, Miss Brody,” he said in his usual war
m friendly voice. “You need me for anything, no matter how small, you call me straight away.”
“Thank you, Liam” she smiled.
“I will be here at five thirty,” he continued. “So whenever you are done. I will be right here waiting.”
“Thank you,” Ally said once again before she slipped out of the car and headed into the garage.
The work day passed by quickly, and at twenty minutes to six, Ally stepped through the door of the garage. As promised, Liam was waiting for her. At Cole's house, Rosie and Liam went about their business giving Ally a calm sense of security.
Cole called just a little after nine and he seemed relieved that the day had gone so smoothly and that Ally was headed to bed. They talked until almost ten; a comfortable and warm "how-was-your-day-and I-miss-you-terribly" sort of call.
Crawling into bed, Ally couldn't help a twinge of sadness at how cold and empty the bed seemed. She'd grown so accustomed to Cole's strong arms around her, spooning her so lovingly and protectively. Eventually the day won over, and Ally drifted off to sleep.
She woke early on Saturday morning, excited for the day at the spa with her besties and jumped into the shower. She packed a small bag with her dress from the party, her shoes, underwear and make up. She had agreed with her friends she would go back to Hannah’s apartment with Hannah and Caitlin to get ready for the party.
After she had some breakfast, Liam took her to collect Hannah and Caitlin, as per Cole’s instructions, and then dropped the three girls off at the spa.
“Wow, I could get used to this,” Hannah said giving Liam a huge smile as she climbed out of the car.
“This is just temporary,” Ally said as she climbed out of the car after her friends. “Just till we are sure Jason has gotten the message.” She turned to Liam and smiled at him brightly. She was growing quite fond of Liam. He was possibly in his early forties, but was well built. He was sandy blonde but had a little grey peppered through his hair. He had a calming presences and that was one of the things Ally like about him.
“Call me when you ladies are finished here,” Liam said to Ally with a smile. “I will come back for you.”
“Thanks, Liam,” Ally said. “See you later.”
The three friends headed into the spa together and began a day of being pampered which included facials, manicures, pedicures and a full body message.
“So have you heard anything else from Jason?” Caitlin asked as the three friends lay next to each other on message beds waiting to have their messages.
“Nope,” Ally said as she propped herself on her elbows on the message table and looking over at her two friends. “I haven’t heard or seen him since Monday, so hopefully he has finally gotten the message.”
“The guy is a serious nut job,” Caitlin sighed dramatically. “He should go and crawl back under whatever rock he came from.”
Ally smiled at her friend’s words as she lay back down on the massage table. She was not going to think about Jason though. She was going to relax and enjoy her day with her girls and look forward to the party, and more importantly Cole coming home.
By the time they got to Hannah’s apartment, the three friend where in great form; giggling and teasing each other. Caitlin finally admitted she liked Nathan and also admitted she asked him to come to the party that night. Hannah told them she was hoping after tonight she was going to seal the deal with the new guy from the bank that she was still drooling over. Ally didn’t say much. She just enjoyed being with her friends and for the first time in over a week not feeling up tight or stressed about crazy exes. Plus she was dying to see Cole.
It was a little after eight when the girls arrived at the pub. Hannah’s family were already there and one or two friends. Pretty soon the place began to fill up and the party was in full swing.
Ally found herself watching the time and her phone. Cole’s flight was due in at eight. It was already 9:30. She thought he would have been there by now. She picked up her phone and gave him a quick text to see if he was on his way. She got no reply.
“Hey, Ally,” Nathan’s voice came from behind her.
“Hi, Nathan,” Ally smiled brightly and couldn’t help but glance towards the door. But there was still no sign of Cole. “Great to see you again.”
“You too,” he replied, his eyes scanning the room. “Cole not here yet?”
“No,” Ally sighed. “He appears to have been delayed. I just texted him.”
“I am sure he is on his way,” Nathan replied distractedly as he continued to scan the pub. Ally smiled as it dawned on her what, or rather who he was looking for.
“Caitlin is just gone to the ladies,” Ally giggled. “She will be right back.”
“Cool,” Nathan replied and surprised Ally when he actually blushed a little. She like Nathan. He was exactly what Caitlin needed.
As the night passed, Ally eyes rotated between the door, her watch and her phone and every minute that passed she could feel her spirit drop a little more and more.
At eleven thirty she had enough. She was mad there was still no word from Cole and fed up with people asking her if there was any word yet.
Damn Cole bloody Thomas, she thought to herself.
She told her friends she was going to call it an early night. Nathan wasn’t happy about her leaving alone and he knew Cole would freak out. When he made the mistake of saying exactly that to Ally, a slight tipsy Ally replied, “Well then he should have bothered his ass to show up then, shouldn’t he!”
Ally agreed to let Nathan at least make sure she got a cab home and promised him she would go straight to Cole’s house. But once inside the cab she changed her mind and instructed the driver to take her to her own apartment feeling false courage because of a little too much wine.
She pulled out her phone and typed a message to Cole.
“Guess I wasn’t even worth a text message. I am going home. Will be by your place tomorrow for my things.”
She pressed send and pushed her phone back into her bag.
When she reached her apartment she hurried into the building and for a moment regretted leaving her friends. As she let herself into her apartment a shiver ran down her spine. The apartment no longer felt like her home. She no longer felt comfortable here.
But where did she belong now? At Cole’s? She had no idea where he was or why he hadn’t contacted her.
She sighed and threw her keys into the glass bowl on the hall table and pulled her phone from her bag. Still no reply. She threw her bag and phone on the table, too, before heading to the kitchen to make some tea.
She switched on the kettle and took out a cup from the cupboard. She went to the fridge and took out the milk. She sniffed it and her stomach heaved.
“Shit,” she thought out loud. She would need to go get some groceries in the morning. Having spent the week at Cole’s everything was past it’s sell by date. Damn Cole bloody Thomas.
Ally jumped when there was a sudden knock on the door. She knew who it would be and she was ready for him. She was not going to buy any of his crap this time. He stood her up before and she had accepted his excuses. What excuse would he have this time?!
“Cole, it’s late and I am tired…” she sighed as she opened the door but froze when she came face to face with Jason.
“Hey, Ally,” he said calmly but he looked anything but calm.
“I have nothing to say to you, Jason,” she said as she began to close the door but he quickly pushed it opened further and pushed her into the apartment slamming the door behind him.
“Well I have plenty I want to say to you.” he said as he turned to face her. Instantly, Ally could feel the panic wash through her body like a tsunami. Her heart drummed loudly in her ears, almost deafening her. He stepped towards her and she stepped back, trying hard to calm her breathing but she was struggling to gain control of it.
“I want you to leave now, Jason,” Ally said summonsing every ounce of strength to sound strong and in control. “Go, or I am cal
ling the police.”
“I just want to talk,” he said raking his hands through his hair in frustration. “What are you fighting this?”
“There is no this, Jason,” she replied. “There is no us. There is nothing left to say. So please just leave.” Ally spotted her mobile phone on the hall table and slowly she inched her way closer to it.
“Ally, you don’t mean that,” he cried, slamming his fist down on the hall table, making Ally jump with fright. “I made one mistake Ally, that bitch was nothing but a whore who would fuck anything. I can’t lose you because of her. I WON’T lose you because of her.”
“Jason, I am not yours to lose,” Ally said calmly, inching ever closer still to the phone on the table.
“And are you his now?” he asked, his tone suddenly colder, as he took another step closer to her. “You have no idea how fucking insane it makes me... to see him touch you. I want to fucking kill him every time I see him put his filthy hands on you. You. Are. Mine!”
Ally reached for her phone but Jason realised what she was doing before she reached it and grabbed her hand. She pulled it free so abruptly, she sent her little glass bowl with her keys inside, which was next to the phone, sliding across the table and crashing to the floor. It smashed into dozens of tiny pieces.
“What are you doing?” he grabbed her again, this time by both her wrists and pushed her against the table. “I just want to talk.” His face was now inches from hers and his breath washed over her face. He had been drinking.
“Jason, please you are scaring me,” Ally begged.
“Ally, I know you still love me,” he insisted pressing against her with his entire body. To Ally’s horror she could feel his erection against her stomach and she knew she was in big trouble. “You just need to remember, that’s all.”
He crashed his mouth against Ally’s as she tried with all her strength to pull herself free from him. She struggled in his vice-like grip but he just gripped her hard. Pushing her up against the table once again, titling it so her bag fell off the table too, hitting the ground, it contents spilling everywhere.
