Jackson

Did she seriously just say she wants more? She’s not pushing me away?

Her fingertips are cold against my skin, and she's trailing them up my back under my shirt. I don’t think she knows what she’s asking for. I’ve saved myself for Ruby for four years now, where before I slept with any girl who was willing. It’s been too long, I’m too pent up. Cricket is entrancing, all-consuming, and I want to taste every single inch of her skin. She has no idea what she’s just asked me to do.

I growl, a possessive sound that almost comes out as a chuckle, and I kiss the corner of her mouth. She tilts her head to the side and I kiss again, kissing down her jawline. Her nails dig into my back when I kiss her below the ear, and I lick her earlobe once just to see what she does. She moans, a delicious delicate sound, and her legs clamp around my waist as her hips tilt up to rub me suggestively.

Fuck me! Am I going to be able to stop? Am I gonna come in my pants like some high school kid?

Her thigh under my hand trembles, opens slightly, and my thumb slips between her legs. I can feel the heat radiating off her panties. Her little moans as I kiss down her neck are making me crazy.

They give me a dangerous idea…

I brush the inseam of her little shorts with my thumb and she gasps in my ear, pressing her small chest against mine and her face to my shoulder. She wants this, she wants me to touch her, she needs me to touch her.

Bravely, maybe too bravely, I slip my thumb inside the leg of her shorts and feel a trimmed bush. I stroke it gently, not going any farther, and she whimpers and leans into my hand so suddenly that I can't pull away. My thumb slips between her slit and wetness coats my hand. I groan, I can help it. My gentle kisses on her neck turn feral and I nip her skin between my teeth.

Cricket begins to rock her hips against my thumb, rubbing her clit against it, and pressing her neck into my bite. When I walked into the bar earlier my mind was filled with Ruby, and now, it’s as if she never existed. I'm resisting the urge to plunge my thumb inside the core of some girl I just met a half hour ago. Resisting the urge to unzip my pants and take her right here in broad daylight. Everything in me says I have to claim her now, but my mind is battling my cock for what’s right. I can’t just fuck a girl I just met because she tastes like heaven and moans like a succubus.

Cricket’s moans turn into a desperate whine. She grinds faster, one arm leaving my back and trailing up my chest until it’s wrapped around the back of my neck. I stop kissing and biting and look into her eyes, dark blue now, and her lips meet mine with a rabid need. She gasps, eyes growing wide, and moans into my mouth as her pussy floods my hand with sweet nectar.

I press on her clit as she comes, rubbing gently but not releasing the pressure. She squirms in my arms, and I’m devouring the sound of her orgasmic moans with every kiss, every stroke of the tongue. The way her body moves against my chest, her legs so tight on my hips, I can only imagine the divine pleasure it will be to be inside her.

The primal need to possess her is about to overtake reason—

“Ahem…”

Growling, shoulders hunching over the woman I’ve just pleasured, I look over my shoulder at whoever dared to interrupt us. Cookie stands there, one hand on her hip and the other holding a baby whose head rests against her shoulder as she sucks her thumb.

“This is a family establishment during the day, Jackson Wraith.” Cookie scowls at me, points at her eyes and then at me as if to say she’s watching me. “You’re lucky I caught you and not Ryder, or you’d be roadkill.”

Shit. She’s right. Ryder just found himself a new sister and I’ve just fingered her on the porch of the bar for all the world to see.

Shame floods over me like a tidal wave, but as I turn to apologize to Cricket, I find her shoulders shaking as she covers her mouth in silent laughter. Her eyes sparkle with mischief, and her fingers curl on the back of my neck and stroke me in small circles. I press my forehead to hers and laugh with her, actually laugh for the first time in I don’t know how long.

“I told you I could give you something to live for…” I say quietly, gently pressing a kiss to her moist lips.

Cricket freezes, her hands suddenly pushing on my chest instead of pulling me to her. I step back, grabbing her elbows and trying to look into her eyes, but she drops her head and tries to hide her face as tears come from nowhere.

“Cricket? Are you okay?” I ask.

She shoves me hard. I stumble back, my back hitting the wall, and stare at her in shock.

“How could you…” she says, her voice barely above a whisper. “How could you do this knowing I’m going to die? It’s cruel, it’s…it’s… It’s not fair!” She wipes her tears away with the back of her hand and tries to walk away, but I grab her arm.

“For moon’s sake…” I mumble. “Give this a chance, Cricket, I know we can be amazing. I’ll find a way to cure you…”

“You’re wasting your time!” she screams at me, ripping her arm out of my hand as her eyes flash, showing me the ferocity of her wolf. “It would take an act of the gods to save me now, a fucking miracle! All you’ve given us is something to mourn.”

I lean back against the bar as she storms back inside, crying. I’m rendered mute and still. Confused. I wanted to give her something to live for, but I gave her something she thinks she can never have.

I growl and turn, pressing my head to the wall and punching the siding in anger. There has to be a way. Cassius would never expose me to a potential mate like this just to snatch her away. Not again. I can’t recover from this a second time, not after Cricket let me touch her. Not after she let me pleasure her… I raise my hand to my nose and sniff deeply, taking in the sweet scent of her. My eyes roll back in their sockets as my tongue flicks out and tastes her nectar.

It's hopeless, I’m hooked. If she’s gonna die, she better take me with her.

Something crashes inside the moment I finish that thought. Cricket screams as a snarl that’s way too familiar fills the bar and ricochets inside my mind.
