“You feel…amazing.” She’d whispered it, and he smiled softly at her.
He leaned forward to take her lips, and she couldn’t help but smile. “I’ve never felt anything as good as being inside you, Maya. This…this is everything.”
Since her ankles were currently by her ears at the moment, she couldn’t help but laugh. He looked affronted for a moment before smiling with her.
“You’re very, very, flexible, Montgomery.” He wiggled his eyebrows, and she reached around to grip his thighs.
“Years of gymnastics and random working out.” She tightened her inner muscles and he sucked in a breath. “Now, fuck me, Jake Gallagher. Fuck me until my tits bounce and I come hard on your cock.”
He stood up straight at that, pulling her legs with him. “As my lady commands.”
Maya licked her lips. “I like the sound of that.” She tugged on her nipple rings, and Jake swallowed hard. Since his nipples were pierced, as well, she couldn’t wait to give those a tug also. They’d been so into their kisses, she hadn’t had a chance to fully take her time with his body, but next time? Next time, she’d lick every inch of him.
When Jake pulled out of her, he kept his gaze on hers before sliding back in. She sucked in a breath, rolling her hips to meet his as he continued to fuck her. Their speed increased as they found their rhythm, and she couldn’t help but want to come at the same time as him.
When she reached for him, he pushed her farther up on the bed slightly and moved so he was fucking her at the same speed, but instead of him standing off the bed, he was kneeling on the edge and so much closer. He leaned forward, and she tugged on his nipples rings. He let out a hiss but his eyes darkened.
“You like that?” she asked.
He reached between them and tugged on one of her nipple rings. At her hiss, he licked his lips. “Yeah, I liked it Maya. I want you to do it again, and again, and again.”
She raked her nails down his chest, then down his arms, and he lowered himself fully on her, his pace never breaking.
She hugged him close, rocking her hips as they came closer and closer to the edge. When he reached between them and ran his thumb over her clit, she came, her body bowing. Jake took her lips, and she could feel him fill the condom deep inside her.
They’d come together, crashing and falling as one in a heated cascade of bliss and promise.
And when they were both able to breathe again, he tucked her to his side, his cock still buried between her thighs, and they just rested.
“That was…” Jake began.
“…everything,” she finished.
There were no more words, no sense of awkwardness, no promises, no regrets. There couldn’t be right then. Not between her and Jake. And later, when she was alone, she’d deal with what had just happened. Right then, though, this was all she needed. Jake at her side and his scent covering her body.
He was all she needed.
And when he went to Border because she wasn’t all he needed, she wouldn’t feel jealous.
Because she couldn’t, not really. And that fact should have worried her, only it didn’t.
Everything had changed, and yet all Maya Montgomery knew, was that she’d endure the ride and maybe, just maybe, find the peace she’d always searched for.
Maya ran a hand over her face and tried not to yawn. She and Jake had been up way too late the night before, though she hadn’t stayed the night. She’d left before Border had gotten home, and while she was glad for it on one hand, on the other she kind of wanted to see him. There had been a connection there, and since he was part of Jake’s past and present, she needed to know him.
Of course, since she hadn’t gotten much sleep, she should have probably taken a nap that afternoon. Instead, since it was her day off from the shop, she’d done all her errands and tried to get ready for the girls’ night at her house. The fact that their not-so-weekly girls’ night just happened to end up at her house the night after she’d slept with Jake probably meant fate was out to get her.
There would be no keeping secrets from this lot.
Of course, she was usually the one prying, but she wasn’t going to look too closely at that detail.
The doorbell to her two-bedroom apartment rang, and she rolled her shoulders. Time to face the firing squad.
Meghan and Miranda, her sisters and other halves, stood on the other side of the door, smiles on their faces and laughter in their eyes.
They pushed past her before Maya could invite them in. “Come in,” she said dryly.
Meghan waved her off and set the dish she carried on the counter. “You’re lucky we didn’t walk right in like you do,” she said with a smile.
Miranda sat another dish next to Meghan’s and rolled her eyes. “That’s the truth.” Her sisters went to work getting the two casserole dip things ready for the evening while Maya turned to close the door. She really didn’t know what they’d brought, but it would be fantastic and probably put four pounds on her ass.
