Dragon's Secret Bride (Silver Talon Mercenaries Book 3) by Sky Winters (14)

CHAPTER 14

One month later…

"Time to get up."

Hoxson's voice was low and sensual, cutting through Adie's sleepy grogginess.

"That time already?" she asked, a smile on her face as she rolled over in bed to face Hoxson. "I feel like I just went to sleep."

She opened her eyes and was greeted with the sight of Hoxson lying on his side, his body propped up on his thick, muscular arm. He was shirtless from the waist down, the off-white, silky blankets draped over his lower half. Adie spotted the outline of his half-solid prick under the sheets, and thoughts of what she wanted to do with that were enough to get her good and woken up.

"I'd think of all days, this would be the one that you'd want to jump right out of bed," Hoxson said with a sly smile.

It took Adie a few moments to clear the sleepiness out of her head for long enough to realize just what he'd meant. Then, with a smile, she remembered.

Today was their wedding day.

Adie moved over in bed, placing her body against Hoxson's and planting a kiss on his lips.

"Did you really think all those years ago when we made that pact to be together that we'd end up like this?"

Hoxson looked away for a moment, giving the question its due consideration.

"I was just a stupid kid back then, but I think that this was the one thing I knew a damn thing about. Deep down, this is what I'd hoped for."

He then took Adie's chin into his hand and gave her a slow, sensual kiss.

"Now," he said, throwing the sheet off his body and turning away. "We've got a full-as-fuck day ahead of us, and we gotta get started. The crew's in town, and the Van de Wauters are going crazy getting their new apartment looking just right.”

But Adie wasn't in a rush. She placed her hand on Hoxson's arm and stopped him before he could make another move.

"I think we've got a few minutes to spare," she said, a sexy smile on her lips.

Hoxson got her meaning right away.

"You know we've got a whole wedding night ahead of us too," he said.

"I think I've got more than enough stamina to last the day," Adie said.

"Then I'm not gonna talk you out of it."

Hoxson moved back in close, pressing his body once more against Adie's. She closed her eyes and savored the feeling of his skin on hers, knowing that his body was the only thing she needed, the only body that could make her feel such overwhelming desire.

As he pulled her close, she felt his prick pulse, hardening just a bit more and more with each beating of his heart. Adie's pussy became wet and slick as she anticipated just how he'd feel inside her. She needed him right then; she didn't want to wait another moment.

Hoxson took his lips from Adie's for a moment, a shiver of disappointment running through her body.

"I love you," he said. "And…I'm so sorry for abandoning you all those years ago. I was just a stupid kid; I didn't know how to love, especially a woman like you. But now that I'm here, now that I've got you in my arms, I know that I'm ready to make you my wife."

Tears of joy trickled from Adie's eyes.

"Aren't you glad we made that stupid little pact, after all?" she asked, wiping the tears away, a smile on her face.

"Pact or no pact, you're mine. And I'm yours."

Adie nodded happily, slipping her arms around Hoxson, and pulling him close.

"I love you too," she said, her mouth only inches from his ear. "Now, I need you to fuck me. Please."

Hoxson didn't wait for her to say another word. With a smooth motion, he moved his body on top of Adie's, positioning himself between her legs. Adie's pregnancy belly had grown over the last few weeks, and Hoxson held himself just above it.

"I feel like a whale," said Adie, glancing down at her belly.

"Then you're the hottest fucking whale I've ever seen," said Hoxson.

Adie let out a light laugh as she placed her hands on Hoxson's ass, pressing his cheeks down and guiding him into her. She let out a sigh of pleasure at the feeling of his head pressed against her wet, swollen lips. Hoxson held fast for a moment, stopping with his head just at the opening to her pussy.

"Such a tease," Adie said, giving Hoxson a playful slap on the chest as he reached down and rubbed her clit with the tip of his prick.

The waves of pleasure that ran through her made it clear that she wasn't going to be speaking many more words.

Finally, Hoxson entered her, bit by bit, inch by inch. Adie closed her eyes and let the feeling of him moving into her obliterate her senses. No matter how many times they'd fucked, she knew that she'd never grow tired of that feeling of him first entering her, of filling her completely.

Once he was totally buried to the hilt, she let out a pleasured sigh as she pressed down on his ass, making sure that every bit of him was inside of her.

"Goddamn, you feel so fucking good," he moaned.

"Your cock is like heaven," said Adie as she arched her back and watched as Hoxson lowered himself, placing his mouth on her nipples and sucking them gently.

The twin feelings of him licking her breasts and moving inside of Adie were almost too much to bear. Her hair splayed out around her face, she tossed and turned as Hoxson began to buck his hips and drive into her at an ever-increasing pace.

She focused on it all: the sensation of the curve of his head stimulating her just so, the smell of his musky body, and the sight of his cock going deep into her over and over again. Already, she could feel the stirrings of an orgasm, and Adie wanted nothing more than Hoxson to make her cum in the way that only he could.

Hoxson placed his palms on both sides of Adie's head, propping himself up and staring down into her eyes with those luminous, gorgeous blues, his gaze so focused on Adie as he fucked her that she felt small before it. She loved how he took control, how he dominated her in bed and made her his over and over again.

Staying inside of her, Hoxson grabbed Adie by the hips and pulled her back as he sat back on his legs. He slipped a pillow under her lower back, angling her body up toward him. Adie placed a finger in her mouth, sucking on it gently as she watched Hoxson sit up and take her ankles into his hands, holding her legs apart.

From this position, Hoxson's shredded, tattooed body was on full display. Adie watched with sublime pleasure as his pecs and abs tightened and released with each bucking of his hips. His expression tightened as he filled her again and again, using this new angle to fuck her hard and fast.

"Oh God," Adie moaned, her breasts bouncing with each collision of Hoxson's hips against her.

She moved her hands along her body, over her breasts, over the soft curve of her belly, and along the curves of her hips, finally letting them come to a rest on Hoxson's rock-hard legs. The orgasm that had been building was now appearing just on the verge, and she knew that it would only take a few more full thrusts before he pushed her over the edge.

"Don't stop fucking me," she moaned. "Please don't stop; I'm so….so close…"

Hoxson pounded her harder at these words, continuing to drive into her as he lowered his body on hers again, kissing her hard and deep.

The orgasm finally broke loose as Hoxson kissed her, Adie's moans muffled by her mouth pressed against Hoxson's. The pleasure was all-consuming, taking hold of every last bit of her, causing her muscles to seize up with pure delight. She wrapped her legs around Hoxson, keeping him inside of her as he came. The explosion of his prick inside of her was just what she needed to take her orgasm to the next level. He shuddered hard as he finished, their orgasms causing their bodies to, for a brief moment, blend into one single being of pure ecstasy.

Finally, when the joy had dissipated, Hoxson collapsed at Adie's side as they both recovered their breaths.

"Well," said Adie after a few more moments. "If I wasn't up before, I sure as hell am now."

Hoxson smiled and gave her one more kiss.

"Now," he said. "I think we've actually got to get up. For real."

Adie nodded.

"Let's do it."

After a brief shower –together, of course- the two got dressed and began their big day.

The few weeks since the battle at the mansion had gone by in a blur. Once the dust settled and the last of the biker bears had been driven out of Starwood, things started to slowly return to normal. The shifters in hiding took control of the city once again, and in San Francisco, the Van de Wauters rose as the single remaining dragon family in the region.

And that's when Hoxson let Adie know about the arrangement Thorne, his boss, had made with the Van de Wauters.

"You're moving to California?" Adie had exclaimed weeks ago when Hoxson revealed the new arrangement.

"That's right," he said. "The Silver Dragons are expanding to the west coast, and I'm going to be leading it up. We have an exclusive contract with the Van de Wauters, and I'm going to be providing security for them. And, in the meantime, I need to assemble a crew."

Adie couldn't believe it. This meant that Hoxson not only wouldn't be leaving her for a second time, it meant that they could be together.

And that's just what they decided. Once Hoxson finalized his purchase of a penthouse apartment in downtown San Francisco, and officially moved, he and Adie decided that the two of them being wed was such a perfect idea that it almost seemed like fate. And they did have a baby on the way, of course.

So Hoxson turned his attention to the establishment of Silver Talons West while Adie made the wedding her priority. They both wanted to be wed as quickly as possible, to start their new lives together. Their connections with the Van de Wauters and their wealth made it very easy to have all of this arranged.

"Okay," said Hoxson, speaking from the entrance of their balcony that looked out over the city, "I'm meeting up with the boys, so that means you're on your own."

He stepped up behind Adie and wrapped his arms around her as they both looked out over the sweeping cityscape.

"You ready for this?" he asked, giving Adie a soft kiss just behind the ear.

"I think I've been ready for this for the last ten years," she said, nuzzling into his neck.

They both felt a vibration in Hoxson's pocket, and Adie knew right away that it was Throne and the rest of the men in the crew calling him to come out.

"That's my cue," he said, letting Adie out of his arms. "Next time I see you, you'll be in a wedding dress."

Adie smiled at the thought.

"Love you, baby," she said.

"Love you too."

They shared one last kiss, and Hoxson was off.

Adie breathed in deep, taking in the sight of the city before her one last time before turning her thoughts to the day ahead. After throwing on some casual clothes, she returned the call from Wendy Van de Wauters, the girl who'd been at her side in getting the wedding planned out. Between her and Jace in the Silver Talons, Adie was making a few girlfriends and was happy to have friendly faces at her side through the frenzy of the wedding planning.

Meeting up at a nearby bistro with Wendy, Jace, and a few other friends of Wendy's, the girls starting their day with brunch before heading out into the town to get Adie dolled up for the day. They stopped at a hairdresser to have Adie made up, her hair put up into an elegant up-do, and stopped at the dress store to pick up her wedding gown.

Adie felt a tinge of joy in her heart as she looked at the gown, a wonderful, fairy-tale dress with a long train and elegant lace patterns. It was the dress of her dreams that she'd wear as she was wed to the man of her dreams. Everything seemed so wonderful to Adie that she could hardly stand it.

The afternoon flew by, with Adie and the girls preparing for the ceremony. It was a whirlwind of activity, and Adie felt the anxiety in her stomach grow by the moment as the hour grew closer and closer. Soon, early afternoon arrived, and it was time to begin.

The ceremony was held at a small church in Sausalito, a quaint little place with a lovely, sweeping view of the San Francisco Bay. The scene was idyllic, and by the time the ceremony was about to begin, Adie felt so nervous she thought she might pass out at any moment.

But she worked through the stress, and soon, she stood at the altar with Hoxson, friends and family all in attendance, Adie felt nothing but joy. Vows were exchanged, both said "I do" with bursting enthusiasm, rings were placed on fingers, and just like that, the two were wed.

The reception was held downtown in the lobby of one of the ritzier hotels, and shifters from all over the city were invited to attend. As much fun as she was having, however, Adie was more than ready to be alone with her love. So, as the evening went on, she decided to pull him away, taking Hoxson out onto the balcony overlooking the city, the twinkling lights of San Francisco all around them.

"How're you feeling, kid?" Hoxson asked, a glass of champagne in his hand as he pulled her close.

"Wishing I could have one of those," she said, tapping the side of the glass.

"Just give it a few months," he said. "You pop that kid of ours out and I'll buy you all the champagne you can drink."

Adie smiled and gave Hoxson a playful pat on the chest. A moment passed as they looked out onto the city.

"We've got a lot ahead of us," said Adie. "You're starting a new team, I'm in a new city, and we're both about to be parents. And who the hell knows if any clans are going to try and pick up where the Mendozas left off."

Adie found herself gripped with worry as she spoke. But Hoxson was as cool and calm as ever.

"Whatever happens," he said, "we'll take care of it. We've got each other, and that's all we need."

Adie felt herself calm immediately at his words.

"Now," said Hoxson, "I don't know about you, but I'm about ready to say our goodbyes and get you over that threshold. You in?"

Adie smiled.

"Let's do it."

So, hand in hand, the two stepped back into the party, and toward whatever was next.

THE END
