Trust would be an issue without being together every day, but I promised him I loved him every time we spoke on the phone.If he had questions about Alex and his family, I didn’t have answers because I didn’t seek them out.
Other than the one text, I didn’t hear from Teresa and didn’t expect to for quite some time.
Eventually, she would feel confident in reaching out.Her boys would be settled enough that a reminder of their past—me—wouldn’t hinder their growth in learning to live without their dad.
It was a couple of weeks before I was able to travel to Maine again, and I only had two days, but Kellen and I made the most of it.
I toured the campground with its new owner—they had cell service, thank fuck.Internet too.I also fucked Kellen into the mattress of his king-sized bed in the office/homeowner’s residence master bedroom in celebration of his closing on the property three days before my arrival.
Snow fell that night, leaving the land, trees, and cabins covered in pristine white.There were no people staying at the campground until spring due to the property sale, so we had the place to ourselves.
The two days passed too quickly, and I once more found myself back in the city, strangely uncomfortable in the noise and bustle that used to feel like home.
We spent Christmas with my new family, the ones who had welcomed me with open arms for loving their Kellen.He and I had a blast shopping for the nieces and nephews on the weekend he’d spent with me in Boston prior to the holiday.
I’d never been so…content.Peaceful.
But the distance ate at my patience throughout January, and even though Alex had ended up getting ten years in prison, I knew worry still sometimes lay heavy on Kellen’s mind about where my loyalties rested.
Winter seemed to last forever, and once March arrived, I was fucking done with the constant travel on weekends, the two short days off work we got to spend together.
It was March third when I sat scowling at my office wall, wishing it were Friday instead of Tuesday.I wanted my man, goddamnit.Needed him like crazy.
Me:Miss you.
My Kell:Miss you more.
I grinned at his immediate response.Not possible, I shot back.My bed is cold.The shirt I stole from you doesn’t smell like bergamot and citrus anymore.
My Kell:My cock is lonely.
A chuckle left me, and I shifted on my squeaky office chair as my own twitched.
Me:That delicious dick of yours just had a thorough make out session with my ass two nights ago.
My Kell:Tell him that.
Me:FaceTime me, and I will.
The fucker actually called.Face flushed, Kellen smirked at me from my cell’s too-small screen.
“Are you a gorgeous shade of pink because you were you outside in the cold, or are you turned on and ready to fuck your fist and come for me?”
“Goddamnit, JJ,” he growled, the color on his cheeks darkening.“I was outside, but now I want to strip down and give you what you want.”
I hopped up, locked my office door, and settled back in my chair.“Get yourself off for me, baby.Make my day.”
He did—but our hot five minutes of phone sex didn’t cause the waiting to see him in person again to pass any faster.
Friday afternoon, I got a call on my cell while sitting in the same chair, thinking about how my lover had shot spunk clear up to his chin then had licked it off.That sight had been in my spank bank every night since.
“Detective Jenner,” I answered, setting aside thoughts of my sexy man and how badly I ached for him.
The gentleman on the phone introduced himself—and promptly etched a grin onto my face as a shot of adrenaline raced through my system.The second I hung up, I went to see my commanding officer to have a little chat.
But it was Kellen I looked forward to talking to.
Even though the last time I’d waited to tell him something important face-to-face almost backfired, I decided to hold off because the news would cause an immediately and necessary celebratory fuck.
