How could I have known that it even existed before Jax Montgomery burst into my life?
“Jax,” I moaned when his mouth went from mine to trail down my neck.
He lingered in the sensitive area right behind my ear, a tender spot that only a very attentive lover could know about.
This man knew every single thing that drove me crazy now, and he used every bit of that knowledge to put me into a frenzy.
I speared my hands into his hair, and ran my nails down his scalp before I finally trailed them down the back of his neck.
“Shit, Harlow,” he rasped.
He wasn’t the only one who had learned a thing or two.
“I need you, Jax. Please. Fuck me.”
I needed to be close to him so desperately that I reached between our bodies and yanked at the buttons on his jeans.
“I got it,” he growled. “I’m so damn hard you’ll never get them open.”
I removed my own, panting with need as I took my panties with the jeans, and tossed them both on the floor.
Jax had his hands on my ass the second I straightened up, and he lifted me effortlessly while I wrapped my legs around his waist.
“Now,” I whimpered, wrapping my arms tightly around his neck.
“There’s no way I could wait, even if I wanted to, baby,” he said in a voice hoarse with desire.
Using the island for support, Jax drove himself home, and I released a moan of relief and satisfaction.
“Fuck! I love the way you’re always so damn ready for me,” Jax growled as he pulled back and thrust into me again. “Do you know how crazy it makes me?”
“Yes,” I panted. “I love it that you want me like this, too.”
There was some kind of deep, primal satisfaction in knowing that Jax lusted after me like a madman.
“Harder,” I begged as I wrapped my legs tighter around him.
“This hard?” he asked as he pounded into me with a fury that only a man in his physical shape could manage.
“Yes. Oh, God,” I screamed.
Jax buried his hand in my hair roughly and pulled my head back so he could devour the bare skin at the side of my neck.
“You’re mine, Harlow,” he growled against my skin. “You’ll always be mine. Say it!”
I arched my back in pure, carnal pleasure. The caveman in Jax made my body hum in satisfaction. “Yours,” I panted. “Always. Just like you belong to me.”
“Fuck, yeah,” he rumbled. “I love you, Harlow.”
I clung to him as his hands tightened on my ass, and jerked me to him with every powerful thrust.
“I love you, Jax. So much,” I screamed as my climax started to wash over my body.
Jax’s mouth came down hard on mine, and I needed that additional connection as much as he did.
I clawed at his back, my body, heart and soul consumed by this man who I loved so desperately.
As soon as he released my lips, I moaned helplessly, completely letting go because I knew Jax would always be there to catch me.
My inner muscles clenched and released violently on Jax’s cock as I tumbled over the edge and just kept falling until I felt like I was never going to stop.
“Harlow!” Jax roared as he found his own release. He held my body tight, breaking the fall, just like he always did. “Baby,” he said gruffly after we were both spent.
I released the death grip I had on his neck slightly, and laid my head on his shoulder as my heart continued to gallop, and I struggled to catch my breath.
We stayed just like that, tangled together, while Jax buried his face in my hair and rocked our bodies like we were slow dancing to music no one else could hear.
Our hearts knew the notes well, though, and that was all that really mattered.

It was late by the time I approached the door of Last Hope Headquarters, but I wasn’t tired. Since I wasn’t a man who required a great deal of sleep, I figured I might as well get some equipment calibrated.
Urgent situations could occur for Last Hope without any advanced warning, so it paid to always be ready.
After Jax had left Hudson’s home in Del Mar, I’d stayed for a while to talk to Taylor about her plans to start her doctorate degree.
I liked Taylor.
I liked Harlow, too.
But that didn’t mean I could even begin to understand why both of my brothers had completely lost their minds once they’d met those two women.
