Nine months later…
"Easy, now," said Anna as Jason wrapped his arm around her and pulled her close. "Still not quite up to a hundred percent."
Jason raised an eyebrow and smirked.
"You're telling me a woman with dragon blood in her veins is still recovering from having a child? You should already be thinking about the next one."
"Oh, really?" said Anna with a smile. "You try pushing a baby out of your, um, area and let me know how ready you are to do that again afterward."
"Fine," said Jason, his voice in a sensual purr. "I'll try to be gentle."
He ran the tip of his finger along Anna's smooth, flat stomach.
"But the operative word in that sentence is ‘try'."
Anna couldn't help but smile as her eyes lingered on Jason's body bathed in the light of early morning. They both lay nude in their bed, the first light of the sun warm with a mellow glow. A playful expression was on Jason's face, but when he knew it was time to have some fun, it shifted into a look that struck Anna as positively smoldering. He started by kissing her all over her body in the way she just couldn't get enough of.
"Almost a year and you're still not tired of that," she said, running her hands through his hair as he kissed her breasts and belly.
"If only you could see how you look from where I am," he said, "then you'd know getting tired of this view isn't gonna happen anytime soon."
Anna smiled at this reply and closed her eyes as Jason went back to work. He kissed along her curves, his lips moving over her hips and back up to her right breast. Then, he moved along the soft slope of her neck, the sensation of his lips upon her sending familiar tingles up her spine. And when he reached her mouth, he moved his body over her, spreading her legs apart with his hand.
"Right down to business, eh?" said Anna with another smile.
"I think I've done all the waiting I'm going to be able to do," he said. "A month without being inside you is enough to drive a man insane."
Anna was more than happy to oblige him. Her eyes locked onto his massive cock, that enormous member that, even as far into their relationship as they were, she couldn't believe she was able to fit inside her. Jason took himself by the base of his gorgeous cock and slid himself into her effortlessly, a shudder of pleasure running through his body as he fully buried his prick.
"Goddamn," he said. "I can't believe how good you feel."
"The feeling is more than mutual," said Anna with a sly smile.
Jason returned the expression as he began moving in her. He knew, well enough, by this point, that for the first minute, he needed to take it slow, especially now that Anna was still not too far-off from giving birth. But today, Anna sensed that Jason wasn't the only one among the two of them who had been waiting for this lovemaking session with impatience; the moment he entered her she could feel that she was already more than aroused enough to accommodate him.
Jason began fucking her at a faster pace, turning his attention to her creamy, full breasts. He sucked on her nipples in the way she loved, the sensation of his mouth on her breasts and his cock hammering into her beyond sublime. Anna reached down and placed her hands on his firm, round ass, guiding him into her at the perfect angle to stimulate her in the way she absolutely needed. Soon, Jason was giving her the pounding of a lifetime, the buildup of the sexual energy over the last month all coming out now in one vigorous series of plunging thrusts.
Anna knew she wouldn't be able to take much more before she came hard. She wrapped her legs around Jason's hips as he drove into her over and over again, closing her eyes as she focused on the orgasm that was growing larger within her by the second.
"Goddamn, you fuck so good," she said, the dirty talk slipping out of her lips almost without her control.
Jason smirked and took this as a sign that he was giving Anna exactly what she wanted. He continued fucking her in this way, his enormous cock bringing her to the brink of the orgasm that she craved.
And, suddenly, she fell over the precipice and into a vast ocean of pleasure she was eager to be swept away in. The orgasm was warm throbbing, the sensual feeling crawling all throughout her body like some kind of wonderful drug. She moaned with passion as Jason fucked her through her orgasm, each thrust wringing just a little more pleasure out of her. By the time Jason came, she was more than ready to feel him erupt in her. He took a deep breath as he came, Anna taking sweet delight at him shooting himself deep into her.
When he was done, he collapsed at her side. Anna breathed in deep; part of her hadn't been prepared for just how intense their little session was going to be.
"I think I needed that more than I realized," she said, still drawing in deep, full breaths.
Several moments passed as the two of them lay in each other's arms.
"As much as I would love to spend the rest of the day with you, I think you and I both have far too much to do today to lounge around," said Jason, sitting up.
Anna sighed, knowing he was right.
Jason headed off to the shower, and as he washed up, Anna wrapped herself in her silk robe and stepped out onto the balcony. The city in front of her, she considered the whirlwind of events the last year had been.
After the death of Ionian, Jason hurried the children back to the city. The four of them kept a low-profile for the next few weeks, hoping to avoid the wrath of the Abraxis Clan. After a time, a note from the Abraxis found its way onto the main balcony of the apartment one evening. In clear terms, it stated that there would be consequences for the murder of Ionian, and that only their ongoing conflicts with the other clans that occupied their power was keeping them safe. Jason read the note to Anna, making it clear to her that he and the rest of the Silver Dragon Mercenaries would do everything in their power to keep her and the family safe.
The issue of the Abraxis Clan set aside for the time being, the four of them settled into a comfortable family life. Jason took the mercenary group to new levels of power, making them into something of a small army. Anna found herself wondering if Jason was preparing to assert his power by declaring himself the leader of a new dragon clan, but knew better than to pry; he was always mum about things of that nature.
Anna's pregnancy went along as planned, and she eventually gave birth to a beautiful boy named Mason. He had Anna's auburn hair and Jason's piercing blue eyes, and as Anna held him for the first time, she knew there was power and potential inside him. As she recovered from her pregnancy, she carried on with her duties as a nanny, becoming something more than that in the process. William and Sophia began to view her as more than just help, but more like family. She knew she could never replace their mother, but she vowed to do her best to give the children the love they deserved.
"Finally!" William said as he sat at the kitchen bar, Anna and Jason entering the living room, Mason cradled in Anna's arms.
Jason and Anna shared a sly look.
"You guys are gonna miss breakfast!" said Sophia, a plate of oddly-shaped pancakes in front of her.
"I wouldn't miss it for the world," said Jason, giving each of his children a kiss on the forehead.
They ate together, enjoying one another's company and discussing their plans for the weekend, the two children playing with Mason happily.
Finally, Sophia said something that sent a jolt through Anna's spine.
"Daddy, are you gonna do it, or what?"
Anna shot Jason a quizzical look.
"What's she talking about, baby?" Anna asked.
Jason looked at Sophia with a narrow-eyed expression.
"Way to spill the beans, midget," he said.
"I mean, I know you bought it, like, a month ago. Do it already!" she said.
"Yeah, Dad," said William. "Don't be a pansy."
Jason tore off a piece of his pancake and tossed it playfully at his son.
"What are they talking about?" Anna repeated.
Jason sighed.
"Come on out to the balcony," he said.
"He's gonna do it!" said Sophia.
"Finally," said William.
Anna placed Mason in his crib and followed Jason out onto the balcony. The sun was out, and it was a beautiful late spring day in the city.
"What's going on?" she asked, not sure how to feel.
"Well, I was going to do this a little more ceremoniously, but looks like the kids beat me to it."
Jason reached into his pocket, and withdrew a small, red velvet box. He opened it, revealing a stunningly gorgeous diamond ring. Anna's heart soared when she realized what was happening.
"I'm one for big, romantic speeches," Jason said, "but after Elena passed, I never thought I'd love again. But here you came, to show me just how wrong I was. Anna Clinton, I love you, and w–"
"Yes!" shouted Anna, unable to contain herself. "Yes, yes!"
Anna and Jason embraced tightly for a time, Jason only moving her away to slip the ring on her finger. Anna held out her hand, watching the stone shimmer in the sunlight. It was the most beautiful ring she'd ever seen, given to her by a man she loved. What more could she ask for?
"I love you, Anna," said Jason, his eyes brilliant in the clear light of day.
"I love you, too," Anna said.
And out of the corner of her eye, she saw William and Sophia pressed up against the glass, Mason in Sophia's arms. They cheered as Anna and Jason embraced, and Anna couldn't help but feel overwhelmed with joy at all she had to be thankful for.
The future was uncertain, and there would surely be challenges ahead, but Anna knew that no matter what, they would be able to take on anything. As a family.
