Having been born with a trust fund worth over a billion dollars, I was used to women throwing themselves at me, but that didn’t mean I had to like it. My interest in entertaining shallow relationships and one-night stands had been a product of teenage hormones and
lasted about as long as a breath mint.I knew what women saw when they looked at me…in addition to the dollar signs. My body was shredded because I liked being healthy, and it made me an effective firefighter. With my hazel eyes —framed with thick dark lashes—angular face, chiseled jaw, and straight nose, I wasn’t considered classically handsome, but I was attractive enough to end up on a list of the world’s sexiest bachelor philanthropists multiple times.Despite my desire to stay out of the limelight, the paparazzi still found interest in me from time to time. And that was usually when women like this one came out of the woodwork. They assumed that I was such a manwhore, I wouldn’t realize that we’d never met and armed themselves with enough details of my whereabouts to make it seem plausible that I’d simply forgotten them. Usually, I bJacksoned them off firmly but politely.However, this time, I was enraged that she hurt my woman.“Get your hand off me,” I snarled as I jumped to my feet. “Run the fuck away, and if I ever see you near me or my—anyone important to me, I’ll have you arrested for stalking.” The irony of that threat did not escape me, nor did it deter me.“But…um, we—you,” she stuttered as she stumbled back a few steps.
I didn’t wait around for her to make a decision or try to play another hand to snare me as her prey. I quickly weaved my way through the tables until I came to Kate and Olive’s. They both looked up as my shadow fell over them.“Do you mind if I use you ladies as a decoy?” I asked with my best puppy dog eyes.Olive’s eyes narrowed, and she leaned over to look around me before sitting back and staring at me haughtily.“A decoy?” Kate asked, perking up minutely. She was trying to appear cool, but curiosity colored her tone.I cringed. “At the risk of sounding like a pompous ass, when you have a bank account the size of mine, it can draw the wrong kind of attention.”Both girls winced and gave me a look of sympathy. “Been there,” Kate sighed.My eyes narrowed, and I bent over the table until my face was inches from hers. “I want their names. Now.”Kate’s eyes rounded, and her pretty lips formed a cute little O. It was so fucking hard not to kiss her, to thrust my tongue into that mouth and finally taste how sweet she was. But my obsession was already showing too much, so I forced my eyes away from temptation and straightened back up. She’d get used to the intensity of my obsession eventually, but I needed to get my ring on her finger and my baby in her belly before she saw the true force of it.“Um, I didn’t keep a list, but that’s really sweet of you.” When I looked back at her, she smiled warmly, seeming genuinely pleased by my actions. Probably what she’d interpreted as a gallant gesture rather than the sudden blood rage that it had actually been.I wanted to tell her that she could come to me anytime for protection, for affection, or even just to talk. Instead, I nodded and murmured, “At your service, remember?”Kate’s eyes twinkled. “My very own white knight.”“Yet here you saved me from the vapid claws of a money-hungry dragon,” I teased, making her giggle and blush.“Well, um, I think I’m going to eat…”I glanced over at Olive, having forgotten she was there, and gave her a polite nod. “Sorry to interrupt but thank you again for your help.”
“Would you like to join us?” Kate asked softly.Tempted, baby. So very tempted.“Unfortunately, I need to get to the station for my shift.”“Okay.” Her smile slipped, and I forced back my smug satisfaction at knowing she wasn’t happy about being apart from me either. “Another time.”“Count on it,” I told her with a wink.Fucking hell. I ached from my head to my toes.Trudging into my bedroom, I stripped on the way to the bed and fell facedown onto the mattress. Then I shored up all my energy just to turn my head to the side so I wouldn’t suffocate.When I’d decided I wanted to be a firefighter, my parents thought I was crazy, and I knew the rest of the world would see it as a publicity stunt. So I entered the fire academy quietly, and it became my haven. The fire chief and my ladder company were all an incredible team to work with, and they kept my involvement close to the vest.But there were times, like tonight—or this morning if I really wanted to get technical about it—that I wondered what the hell I was thinking.It was fucking pledge week at many campuses around the boroughs, and I’d lost count of the times we’d been called out to a fire, either from a drunken party or a hazing gone wrong. I’d spent more time in my gear than out of it, and that getup wasn’t light.To make matters worse, a train broke down in the middle of one of the busiest junctions in the city, so several people weren’t able to make it in for their shift. This was the first time I’d stepped foot in my house in three days.As usual, I received constant updates from Kate’s security team, but I hadn’t had time for more than a quick glance or two while shewas babysitting. And on the rare occasions when I’d been able to catch a nap, I didn’t dare think about her to avoid any erotic dreams.
I was exhausted, starving, dirty, and all I wanted was to see Kate. I was practically going through withdrawals for my girl.After resting for a few minutes, I crawled all the way onto the bed and slipped under the covers. I grabbed the TV remote from the nightstand, then sprawled on my back and hit the button that lowered the television. It came down at an angle, so I didn’t have to be propped up to watch the screen, which came in handy when you couldn’t move.Using voice commands, I accessed my server and pulled up the footage of Kate from the past few days. When her face appeared on the screen, it was like taking a deep breath after surfacing from hours in the ocean.Turning my head just slightly, I inhaled the coconut & lime scent on the pillow as I watched her coo to the twins. My cock twitched, then began to harden and lengthen as images of a pregnant Kate swam in front of my tired eyes.I didn’t bother trying to find relief, though. The idea of anyone other than Kate—even my own hand—working me to climax felt like a betrayal. Not that I would have to suffer for long. This was the one place where I let go of my tightly leashed hunger. Where I could relax and fully indulge in how much I craved Kate.In our room, our bed, just me and my blue-eyed girl.I closed my eyes and listened to the gentle cadence of her voice.“I love you, Jackson.”“Say it again, Kate,” tongue up her slit, circling her inside her tight channel.“Oh! Yes!”I demanded before I dragged my clit and going back down to plunge“Say. It.” I ground out, pinching her ass hard so she’d know I wasn’t playing around.“I love you!”“Damn fucking straight,” I growled.I pulled her puffy, wet folds apart and gently blew on her slick flesh. She shivered, and I inhaled deeply as I watched her sticky cream ooze from her center. “I can smell how fucking needy you are, blue eyes.” I lapped at the sweetness, groaning when the taste burst on my tongue, causing my own thick jizz to spurt from my cock.My eyes lifted as I ate her sweet pussy, staring at her swollen belly and feeling the total satisfaction of knowing I’d bred my woman. I’d marked her in every way possible, inside and out, so there was no doubt she belonged to me.I fucking loved seeing Kate pregnant, knowing she was holding a little piece of both of us inside her womb. The memory o
“Hello, Jackson.” Kate’s warm voice washed over me, and I looked up to see her standing at my table, smiling sweetly. “Hey there, blue eyes,” I greeted her with a grin. “Fancy meeting you here.” It was probably a stupid move, but after nine months of waiting, I’d reached the point when I needed to talk to Kate at least once a day or I would lose my fucking mind. So I started frequenting the coffee shop she loved. She was there nearly every day. My only saving grace was that it was near the firehouse, so I had a plausible excuse. Kate giggled, and her deep blue orbs sparkled. I hoped our daughters had her eyes…then again, maybe not. If our girls looked half as beautiful as Kate, I’d have to lock them in a tower until their golden years. Her smile turned almost shy, and she blushed before saying, “I hoped…um, it’s always nice to see you.” Fucking hell. I wanted to yank her onto my lap and kiss the hell out of her. But I swallowed the desire and kept my expression pleasant. “I enjoy
Ismiled warmly at Kate as she pulled out a chair and sat at the table next to mine. “Good morning, blue eyes.” She blushed, like she always did when I called her by that nickname. “You realize that the fact that we bump into each other here so regularly probably means we have a caffeine problem, right?” she teased. Oh, I was there due to an addiction, but it wasn’t caffeine I craved. And I only had a month left before I would finally satisfy that craving. Or at least take the edge off. I would always hunger for Kate. I had no doubt of that. “Some obsessions are worth any price or repercussion,” I responded without a hint of amusement. She opened her mouth, then shut it, then sputtered, “I’m, um, meeting my sister, Grace, but thought I’d say a quick hello.” “I’m glad you did,” I responded happily. “How is the house coming along?” “Your suggestions have been invaluable. I think you’ll be very pleased with the way it’s shaping up.” Biting her lip, she glanced away for a second, an
The corners of my mouth tipped up at her quick backpedal. She hadn’t yet grasped that nothing about my life was a secret to her. But I didn’t have time to get into that. “There’s a problem with one of my foundations that I need to address myself. I didn’t want you to think I wasn’t showing up for coffee for any other reason than the truth. And to know that I will miss seeing you every day.” Her mouth formed an O, and her blue eyes lit with delight. “Me, too.” “I wish like fuck I could kiss you goodbye,” I told her after drawing in a ragged breath. “But I know that once I start, I won’t be able to stop.” Stunned, she stared at me, and I gave in to a smaller temptation, bJacksoning a kiss over the pretty blush on the apple of her cheek. “Be good. Don’t let any little shits put their hands on you, and I’ll see you on your birthday.” Her breathing became choppy, and her tits bounced enticingly, making my cock ache to be inside her. The time away would be even more hell than the past
Spearing Olive with an intense stare, I stated bluntly, “I have a perfectly good reason for not being at her birthday like I promised. But she deserves to hear it first.” Fishing in my pocket, I pulled out a small robin’s egg blue box. “I love her. And I won’t let anything stand between us. So feel free to run to Jeall, the police, or anyone you want, but don’t expect them to find her without a ring on her finger and my last name. Is that clear?” Olive studied me for a moment before nodding. “I want updates from her so I know she’s okay. But dude, if she’s not your wife the next time I see her, you will wish it was Jeall coming after you. Unlike him, I have no balls and therefore no empathy for what it would be like to have them cut off and shoved up my ass.” I couldn’t help the grin that curved my lips, and I shook my head. “You know what, Olive? I believe you.” There was just something about her that told me she wasn’t bluffing. “And thank you for taking care of my girl until it wa
JACKSON Ihanded Kate a bottle of water, then sat in the seat beside her just as a man in a pilot’s uniform walked in through the airplane door. “Sorry I’m late, Jackson. Got stuck in traffic.” Wade was Lake’s preferred copilot and another good friend. “No problem,” I said with a wave. “I certainly didn’t give you much notice, moving the trip up over twenty-four hours.” I gestured to Kate and put my arms around her, pulling her in close and smiling when she melted into my side. “Wade, this is my Kate. Wade’s our copilot.” Lake walked to the door of the cockpit and smiled when he spotted my girl. “Wow, Jackson. You sure know how to pick ’em.” My eyes narrowed in warning, making his grin grow. “Kate, that asshole is Lake. Ignore him.” Lake laughed and greeted Wade, who was putting his stuff into a cubby in the galley. “Hey, Wade. Okay, Jackson, we’ll take off in about five minutes.” “Thanks,” I said with a lift of my chin. Wade pulled the plane door closed and secured it, then they
I gave her what she was asking for, plucking her nipples a few times before breaking the kiss and taking one of the buds in my mouth. While I laved at her tits, I teased her entrance with the tip of my dick. Softly, just kissing the flesh together to stimulate her nerve endings. Eventually, I pushed a little inside, and when her walls clamped down and tried to suck me in further, I knew she was ready.Rising back up, I unhooked her ankles from behind me and placed them on my shoulders. “Just relax, baby,” I crooned. Gently, I pushed in a few more centimeters, then stopped to let her muscles stretch and accommodate my size.She was so tiny. I might have worried about my fat cock being too much for her if I hadn’t known, without a shadow of a doubt, that Kate was made for me.The next time I added a little more, she tensed, and I petted her sex, making sure to bJackson over her clit while I cooed, “Relax, blue eyes. Focus on how good it feels to have me inside you. Filling you. See how
hands on the sides of her head, and her expression was horrified as she turned in a circle, not seeming to see anything in front of her. “Holy crap. We didn’t use a condom. I can’t be the other woman! A pregnant mistress? Holy crap! My parents are going to kill me. Life is not a fairy tale, Kate Weller.”After absorbing her ranting for a minute and then seeing the object in her hand, I caught on to the misunderstanding.“Kate.” She didn’t even register that I’d spoken as she continued to walk around and mutter to herself. I stalked over to her and yanked her into my arms. “Kate!”“Don’t touch me!”I didn’t let her go, despite her struggling.“Let me explain,” I demanded in a tone that said I meant business. She stopped wiggling, but her expression remained angry and resentful.“There is no one else but you.” She opened her mouth, but I shot her a look that had her snapping it shut. “There hasn’t been for a very long time.”I grabbed the wrist of her hand that was tightly clenched shut
