All I Want For Christmas Is You - Vi Keeland Page 0,78
chest, this is nice. “Who was on the phone?”
“Your friend.”
I frown.
“Clancy.”
“Oh.” I sit up, “Shit, what did she want?”
“She wants you to call her back.”
“Okay, can I use your phone?”
He passes it over and then lies back down beside me as I dial the number. “Hello,” Clancy answers in a panic.
“Hi.”
Jack runs his hand down my body and over my hipbone. Goosebumps follow his touch.
“Oh my God, who the hell are you staying with?” she splutters. “And why the hell was he in your bedroom?”
I open my mouth to say something and then I close it as Jack slides beneath the covers.
“Umm…” He licks my lower stomach and my sex clenches in appreciation. “A very nice man.” I reply in a high-pitched voice. I put my hand on Jacks forehead and try to push him away. I can’t concentrate on having a coherent conversation while he’s doing that.
“I need more information,” she urges. “Holly, have you hit your head or something? It’s late December and you have a ton to do, should I be worried?”
“No not at all, Information later,” I snap. I feel Jack smile against my skin. He must be able to hear our conversation. “What’s up?” I go to push him away again and he takes my fingers into his mouth and begins to suck on them. His tongue flickers back and forth between my fingers.
Oh…that tongue.
“You won’t believe it,” she says. “Oscar Maddison has appendicitis.”I frown, that’s who I’m meeting today. “What?”
“He went in for emergency surgery last night and won’t be back at work until next week on Tuesday. They want to reschedule you for then.”
I pinch the bridge of my nose. Shit.
“I’ll organise you a flight home,” she continues.
Jack kisses his way up my body and takes my nipple into his mouth, he pushes his knee between my legs to open them.
I smile….
“Holly?” Clancy snaps.
“Oh, I’m sorry, what?”
“I said, I’ll organise a charter flight to come and get you.”
I glance down at Jack and he smiles around my nipple. The look he gives me is naughtiness personified. “Actually….”, I pause, “do I have any major meetings this week?”
“Let me look,” she says. I can hear her typing on her computer. “You have Edward on Friday.”
“I can phone conference him.”
“Why?”
“I think I’m going to stay here and work remotely from a hotel for the week.”
“What?” She pauses. “Why? You hate staying away.”
Jack smiles and bites me hard and I jump and try to push his forehead away. “Stop it,” I mouth.
He begins to motorboat my breasts and unable to help it, I laugh out loud.
“What are you doing?” Clancy snaps.
“I’m sorry,” I frown. “Terribly distracted.”
“No shit.”
“I’m… I’m going to stay in Alaska for the week, there’s no point in coming all the way home only to come back again. I have a lot to prepare for the meeting anyway.”
Jack climbs up over me and slides his hard body deep into mine, my mouth falls open as I stare at him.
“Holly…”
“I can’t talk now, Clance,” I snap. “I’m fine I promise, I’ll call you later.”
“Shall I book you a hotel?””No, I’ve got it.”
“Holly…what the hell…”
I hang up on her midsentence and wrap my arms around Jack’s neck. “That was very rude, to interrupt my conversation like that,” I say.
He gives me a slow sexy smile, “Shut up and fuck me.”
“You ready to go?” Jack asks.
“Aha.”
He picks me up and carries me out the front door and down to his truck. It’s 3 pm and we are going back to my car to pick up my computer and suitcase. I’ve been playing hooky from work and in bed doing bad things all day, but in my defense, we’ve been waiting for a break in the weather. Jack places me in the truck and with a quick kiss, does up my seatbelt. I watch as he walks around to his side. He’s wearing a black t-shirt and blue jeans that fit in the all the right places. He has a three-day growth of dark whiskers and I don’t know if I’ve ever seen someone so damn sexy in my entire life, or maybe that’s because he’s fucked every last brain cell out of my head and I’m not thinking straight at all…. it’s completely possible. That man has had me every which way and then some. He’s making up for lost time, times ten.
I have a dull ache between my legs, I feel swollen and sore.
