Our tongues danced, and I just couldn’t get enough of her. Her tits pressed against my chest as I held her tightly, deepening the kiss. Her fingers dug into my shoulders, and I thrust my hips, my body igniting from the friction of rubbing my cock against her.
I broke the kiss, working my way back down her neck, nipping and sucking, biting gently before soothing it with my tongue.
“Yes,” Mariah moaned, arching into me. She reached between us, playing with the tip of my cock, and I nearly came undone.
“What are you doing to me?” I groaned.
“What does it look like?”
I stared at her as our bodies sliding against each other in the water, nearly overcome by the intensity of my feelings. “It looks like you want this.”
In one quick movement, I lifted her up enough to position my cock at her entrance, then I pulled her back down, hard, thrusting my cock deep inside of her .
Mariah cried out, and I brought my mouth to her tits, sucking on each of her nipples. Her hands were tangled in my hair, urging me on for more as she moved her hips, riding me equally hard. This was what we both wanted right now. What we needed. To let out all of our feelings, to rid ourselves of the weight of the day and fuck until all that was left was our love.
I grunted when her pussy convulsed, tightening around my cock, and still she rode me. Her eyes were locked on mine, lips parted while she panted for breath, bracing herself on the bathtub for leverage. Her honey hair had fallen from the bun and tumbled over her shoulders while she looked down at me.
In that moment, she was everything, a perfect goddess, and more than I ever could’ve thought to ask for. She was my mate, my love, the mother of my child in every way that mattered.
“God, I love you,” I confessed, bringing her back down for another kiss.
And then she shattered in my arms, her walls gripping me so tightly as she came that my own orgasm followed right behind.
I roared, the sound of it echoing off the bathroom walls, and still I thrust into her until we were both quaking with aftershocks, completely spent as we lay limp in the bathtub.
“Holy shit,” she said, breathing hard.
“My sentiments exactly.” I chuckled, then forced myself to stand. I pulled Mariah to her feet and grabbed a towel, drying her off before I lifted her in my arms and carried her into the bedroom.
We fell asleep wrapped in each other’s arms, and for the first time in far too long, everything felt just right.
Chapter 20
Mariah
I leaned against the kitchen counter before my morning classes, sipping my coffee and watching Jax from the corner of my eye. He’d avoided me all week, and I couldn't blame him, but it still stung.
Evan had crossed a line. I didn’t know if Jax knew how the mate thing was causing him to act out, but I was worried his actions had made the alpha afraid to even come near me. All he'd tried to do was help.
I sighed and rubbed my temples. The tension in the house seemed to ramp up the longer we went with no word about Tomas, but I couldn’t go on like this.
“Jax,” I said softly. “Can we talk?”
He looked up, surprised, from where he was sitting, hunched over the laptop at the dining room table. “Sure, love,” he said with a sigh, closing his laptop. He leaned back and ran a hand through his hair, his face wary as he looked at the arched entrance that led to the hall.
I didn’t care if Evan walked in. I would put his vow to the test. We might have made up, but that didn’t mean I’d forgotten.
I took a deep breath to try and find the right words. “Look, I just want you to know that I’m not upset with you. Evan was in the wrong, and you didn’t deserve what happened. I appreciate everything you've done to help us, and even in the short time I’ve known you, I’ve come to think of you as a friend. Please don’t feel like you have to avoid me.”
“And Evan? What does he think about this?”
“He swore to me he’d keep it under control.”
Jax stared at me for a moment before nodding slowly. “I hope that holds true. Thanks for what you said, love. I just don’t want to make things worse, you know?”
“You won’t.” I offered him a small smile. “Please don't worry about it. We're good, okay?”
He grinned then in the first real smile I’d seen since they came back from the rescue mission. “Okay.”
