behind him. His forearms were resting on the arms of the easy chair like a King on his throne. He may have been on his knees for her just a moment ago, but she didn’t doubt in her head that he was the one in control.
Her hands moved to his fly and she quickly unbuttoned it, exposing his hard cock to her eyes. She needed this, more than anything she had before, this release, this contact with him alone.
“I’m on the pill.”
His blue hooded eyes found hers. “Are you sure?”
“Yes. I want nothing between us, Jack.”
“I’m clean. I’ve never… not before.”
His words were all she needed as she placed one knee on either side of his hips and sank onto his rigid length in a single movement. A growl moved through his chest as he threw his head back, his hands finding her hips and holding her still. Lifting his head slowly, he looked at her with reverence and passion, making her feel safe and loved. Rooted her in the moment when her entire existence felt like it was coming apart.
“Take what you need, Astrid.”
Her body took over, fighting for the release she needed, her hips rising and falling on his length. The eroticism of him being fully clothed made her feel wild and free as she took and took until she was on the edge of another climax. Her eyes never left the man who was keeping her grounded, saving her from the grief and pain she knew would swallow her whole.
Lifting his hand, he cupped her nape, bringing her mouth down to his and kissing her, deep and slow. “So beautiful, my wild firefly.”
“Jack, I want us to come together.”
His eyes were liquid fire as he placed his hands on her hips and started to move, fucking her from below. “Touch yourself, Astrid. Play with that pretty pussy for me.”
Her hand went to her centre, and she stroked her clit, the climax building as she felt the drag and slide of Jack’s cock inside her and then she felt his mouth on her breast, the bite of his teeth on her nipple and followed by the soothing lap of his tongue. She came hard, her body clamping down and dragging his climax from him as he groaned against her skin and came. The heat of his release flooded her body as her arms came around him, holding tight to the only man who’d ever let her feel at peace and be herself, even when she didn’t know who that was some days.
Jack stood with his cock still inside her and carried her to the bathroom and sat her on the counter, the ceramic cold on her bare skin.
Sweeping her hair from her face, he tipped her chin to look at him. “You okay, firefly?”
“I think so. It was a shock, and I feel so out of control like everything is coming at me so fast and I have no time to process before the next one.”
He kissed her forehead. “What can I do?”
“You already did it, Jack. You gave me control and let me work through my energy.”
Jack winked at her and her body clenched around his still hard cock. “I’m always here for you, Astrid, especially if that’s how you work through your issues.”
She smiled when an hour ago, she wanted to cry. “I mean it, Jack. You knew I needed you and let me take it. You’re a special man.”
He grinned at her as he withdrew his cock after two more strokes which made her moan in pleasure. “How about a shower and we go see what the team found before you meet with the Queen later?”
“Sounds good.”
She watched him turn on the shower to a warm heat and strip naked, marvelling at the beauty of the man she was falling in love with. The warm spray hit her skin, bouncing off Jack’s chest and running down his hard abs, and she felt the need to share some of her past with him.
“Have you ever been in love, Jack?”
He scrubbed the water from his face before looking at her. “Nope, never been in love.” He picked up the shower puff and motioned for her to turn, which she did, letting him soap her back.
“I have, at least I thought I was.”
She felt him freeze behind her before he continued. “What happened?”
“We worked together, and I thought it was perfect. He was older than me, but he said he loved me and even asked me to marry
