Jacob's Ladder: Gabe (Jacob's Ladder #1)

Although I should’ve been touched by what he said, I brushed his hand away. “If I decided I was through giving blowing jobs, or I wouldn’t let you take my ass, you’d be perfectly fine with that?”

Gabe’s eyes widened before a laugh burst from his lips. “Does that mean you’re down for ass play?”

I scowled at him. “Would you be serious?”

“I’m always serious when it comes to anal sex.”

“Gabe,” I hissed.

“Okay, okay. I’ll be serious.”

“Good.”

“Of course, I would be disappointed if you stopped giving blow jobs, especially since I haven’t had the pleasure of having your mouth around my cock yet. Not to mention burying myself in between your creamy ass cheeks…”

“You’re losing focus.”

“My dick isn’t, because it’s getting hard again.”

“Seriously?”

After taking my hand in his, he brought it to his half-mast erection. “Nice refractory time, eh?”

I couldn’t help laughing at the absurdity of his statement in the middle of what I wanted to be a serious conversation. “Yes, you have a nice refractory time for an older guy.”

Gabe sucked in a harsh breath. “Did you just call me…old?”

“You are thirty.”

“Which sure as hell isn’t old the last time I checked.”

“It’s middle-aged for a dick when you consider the number of men in their forties and fifties on Viagra.”

“I’m not sure I like the direction this conversation has taken.” He glanced down at his slackening erection. “Not to mention what it’s done to my dick.”

“Maybe you should have focused on what I was saying.”

“Fine.” He pulled himself into a sitting position. Turning back around, he stared down at me. “Rae, while I would be initially heartbroken over the loss of your oral and anal skills, it would not be a deal breaker for me.”

“Yeah right,” I huffed.

“You know, you have more worth than what is between your legs.”

“You sound like Aunt Sadie.”

“Well, she’s a wise woman.”

“I’ll be sure to tell her that.”

“Make sure you do. In the meantime, get it through that thick skull of yours that the other women are in the past, and you, just you, are here now in the present.” He gave me a genuine smile. “And hopefully the future.”

His words put my unease to rest, at least for the moment. Changing topics, I rose to sit on my knees beside him. After I brought my lips to his, I reached between us to cup his slackened cock. It jumped in my hand as Gabe jerked his mouth from mine.

“What are you doing?”

“I thought it might be time to acquaint you with my oral skills.”

“Is that right?”

“Mm-hmm.”

As I began to slide my hand up and down his cock, it began to grown once again. “Yes, very nice refraction.”

“I’m glad it pleases you,” Gabe mused.

“Lie down.”

He licked his lips. “Fuck, I love it when you tell me what to do.”

I grinned at him as he proceeded to lie back down on the mattress. Now it was my turn to lick my lips before I bent my head. With hooded eyes, Gabe stared in anticipation at me. Instead of taking his dick in my mouth, I instead flicked my tongue against the head. Slowly, I swirled it around and around the tip.

Gabe groaned and bucked his hips up. Once again, I was going to tease him until it drove him wild. I turned my attention away from the tip and began licking him from root to the head. I flattened my tongue against his cock before sweeping it upward. Gabe threw his arms over his eyes, and as his teeth dug into his bottom lip, I felt a rush of wetness between my legs. There was something about watching him enjoy being pleasured that did me in. I wanted more of that. For him. For me.

After licking him sufficiently, I finally sucked the tip of him into my mouth. “Oh fuck,” Gabe muttered as I suctioned the head of his dick. I went back and forth from sucking him hard to then easing up the pressure. When he groaned once again, I took him in even deeper. I then began bobbing up and down while also using my hand.

When I increased my pace, Gabe grunted. “Fuck, Rae, I’m going to come.”

At the feel of his balls tightening in my hand, I let him fall free of my mouth. After grabbing a condom out of his nightstand, I tossed it at him. “I want you to come in me.”

Gabe flashed a sexy smile at me before unwrapping the condom. “Your wish is my command.”

After he slid the condom on, I threw my right leg over to straddle him. Taking his dick in my hand, I brought it to my already slick entrance. Slowly, I started easing down on him. Once he was buried deep inside me, I placed my hands on his chest before starting to slide on and off of him, rising up then sinking back down. Gabe began raising his hips to echo my movements.

Leaning forward, Gabe’s mouth closed over one of my nipple. He sucked it into a hardened peak. While his mouth kept a delicious assault on my breast, he brought his hands to my waist. He began to lift me even faster and harder off of his dick. When his teeth nipped and grazed my nipple, I felt myself going over the edge. Gripping his shoulders, I rode out the intense orgasm. Gabe thrust into me a few more times before he came with a string of expletives.

We collapsed back onto the mattress in a tangle of arms and legs. It took us a few moments to get our bearings as well as catch our breaths.

“Once again, that mind-blowing,” I murmured.

“Hell yeah it was.”

With a grin, I asked, “Should I be anticipating another refractory period from your dick, or can I maybe grab a shower?”

Gabe laughed. “I think he’s good for the night, so you can shower. But on one condition.”

“What’s that?”

“You let me in there with you.”

“It’s a deal.” As Gabe and I climbed out of bed, I added, “After our shower, can we order in and watch movies?”

“Sure thing.” He winked at me. “As long as you don’t talk during the movie.”





For the first time in almost two weeks, I woke up in my own bed. Although it was nice to be back home, it was even nicer to have Rae’s lush body pressed against mine. As my mind went back to the night before and our amazing sex, I couldn’t stop the smile of satisfaction from curving my lips.

Closing my eyes, I inhaled the sweet coconut smell of Rae’s hair. She had been more than worth the wait. Sure, it had barely been two weeks, but that was an extremely long time for me to wait to have sex. Usually, I was naked with a woman less than two hours after we first met, but Rae was different. She had always been different, and she always would be.

I had to give Rae credit for knowing how to play the delayed gratification card. Making me wait until we got back to my apartment was one thing, but holy shit when she started that striptease, I seriously thought I was going to come in my pants.

Pulling her hair back, I began planting kisses down her neck. When I got to her shoulder, I began to lick and nip my way across her soft, creamy skin. At her long sigh, I paused. “Good morning, beautiful,” I murmured into her ear.

She smiled at me over her shoulder. “Good morning.”

“Did you sleep okay?”

“Yes. I don’t think I moved once during the night.”
