“I’m going to miss you.” Mackenzie sat across from Ash at the small table in her apartment. Charlie was out on her date with Owen, Sledge had taken a flight home without Mack ever knowing he was in town and Ash had her all to himself, at least for a few more hours.

“I’m gonna miss you too, baby. We have to figure this thing out. We’ve wasted too many years. I don’t want to be away from you. Maybe I’ll talk to Wolf and see what the Southies have got going on out here...”

“No!”

Ash was slightly taken aback by her strong objection. “No?”

“I’m sorry. I mean, I know you like Dax and those guys, and Boston is a lot closer...but Ash, I can’t ask you to leave your friends, your whole life, and come back here just to be with me. Charlie is even out there now.”

“Charlie is about to be filthy rich. She’ll be able to visit every weekend if she wants to. And I’m not going to lie and say I don’t want to leave the Westside. I love my club. I love my brothers...but Mack, I am so in love with you. I’ve been so in love with you for so many years...and wasted so much of it. I don’t want to waste another second. I want a life with you.”

It was the first time he’d told her he loved her in over five years and as he was saying it, that fact dawned on him. The tears in her eyes told him that she caught it too. “I love you too, Ash. I want nothing more than to make a life with you too...but let me talk to Charlie and see what we can figure out. Please. I don’t want to uproot your whole life.”

“Mack...you are my whole life.”

She stood up and came around the table. Putting her arms around his neck, she dropped down onto his lap and pressed her lips to his. The thought of being apart had lit a fire in both of them and as soon as they touched, their passion flared. Mack grabbed the bottom of his t-shirt as they kissed and pushed it up. Ash tore it off over his head and tossed it. It landed on the kitchen counter, but neither of them noticed, or cared. He was struggling to undress her, so she stood up and Ash stood up with her. They both began to strip off their clothes, kissing and touching in between, like two wild, horny teenagers alone at last while Mom and Dad were out. As soon as they were both naked he grabbed her around the waist and backed her up against the refrigerator. When her back was against it he put his hands in her hair and held her head still while he kissed her entire face, licked her lips, and then dipped his tongue into her mouth, assaulting as much of her mouth with it as aggressively as he could. He felt like devouring her, and the kitchen was as good a place as any for a delicious meal.

Mack reached up and put her own hands in his hair and the kiss went on and on. Ash’s body was pressed hard into hers and every one of Mack’s curves melded into him, like they were made to fit together. God, he loved her. He was overwhelmed by it, and he couldn’t imagine going a day without her now much less a week, or two or three. He hated the thought of leaving his club...but sometimes you had to make sacrifices for love. Mack had made enough sacrifices. It was his turn.

Mack started sensuously sliding her body against his, rubbing her breasts up and down his hard chest and sliding her legs up and down against his. Those soft, sexy caresses were enough to drive all other thoughts out of his head. He moved his lips from her mouth and as they panted and gasped to get air back into their lungs, he slid his mouth down to her neck. She gasped loudly as he bit onto her neck and he felt her fingernails dig into his scalp, which she was still holding onto. He kissed down to her collarbone...and across it...and then slid his mouth down to her gorgeous breasts. He licked her nipples, roughly rolling them around in his mouth, listening to her moan and whimper under his assault. His cock was aching so badly that suddenly he couldn’t even imagine taking the time to make it to the bedroom. Instead, he turned her around so she had her back to the little wooden table and he picked her up slightly and sat her down on it. She giggled when she realized what he intended to do, but she didn’t object. Ash reached down and pushed her knees apart and positioned himself in between them. Mack reached down and took his throbbing cock in her hand. It felt hot in her grasp, like it was about to combust into flames.

Ash pushed her back so she was lying on the table with her legs dangling off the edge. She was still holding onto his cock and as soon as she was in position she pressed him into her sopping-wet pussy at the same time as he flexed his hips, and they both cried out as he was suddenly buried inside her and filling up her delicious pussy. He began moving in and out of her, and Mack held onto his shoulders with her hands and pressed into his backside with her calves and feet, urging him to go faster and fuck her harder. She was a little minx when she got going...and he fucking loved it.

“You need more, baby?”

“Mm-hmm!”

“How much more?”

“I want it all,” she said, breathlessly. Ash pulled out of her and she let out a little whine. He smiled and pulled her up to her feet and turned her so she was facing the table. He wrapped his arms around her again and let his hands explore her from between her thighs all the way up to her breasts. She moaned loudly and rubbed her butt against his rock-hard erection. He bit down on her neck again, sucking a piece of it in between his teeth and putting his mark on her, again, like a horny teenager. He couldn’t help it. She was too fucking sexy, and he wanted to taste every inch of her. When he finished with her neck he stood up straight and pushed her forward so her hands were on the table with her palms pressing into it. Her back was arched, and he ran his hands over the curves of it and down across the cheeks of her perfect butt. He bent down again and kissed her shoulders and then let his tongue trace a path down her back to the top of her crack. She shuddered when his tongue dipped in between her cheeks and he licked her all the way down, lapping at her pussy for a second before licking his way back up and standing up straight behind her once again.

He took his cock into his hand and used it to slap her on the ass a few times before finally finding her soaked slit and rubbing the tip of his cock up and down. She whined and in a raspy voice she said, “Ash, please, baby.”

“Please what?”

“Fuck me. Please. I need you inside of me...now.”

He entered her then from behind, just letting the tip go in and then pulling it back out. He did that a few times, but the last time Mack was ready for him. As soon as he slid the tip into her she used her arms and pushed back into him hard enough to take in half of his shaft. Ash didn’t have the willpower to pull it back out again. He let it fill her up once more, hitting bottom this time. They both groaned, and he reached down and took her ass cheeks into his hands, holding them tightly and massaging with his fingers as he began to pound into her. Mack was like a wildcat, impaling herself back on him each time he pulled back. He gave her what she needed...what they both needed. He fucked her, hard, right there against the table in the kitchen and once she came he spun her around and fucked her against the refrigerator. He fucked her once more against the kitchen counter, and he was about to pick her up and move her again when he felt the earth tremble and he exploded with an orgasm for the books.

By the time Charlie got home from her date they had cleaned up their mess in the kitchen and taken a wild shower together. By the time they went to bed together, they were both exhausted. Mack snuggled into him and in minutes she was purring like a kitten. It took him forever to fall asleep thanks to the rampant thoughts in his head. He didn’t want to leave his brothers, but it was his only choice, and he made up his mind that as soon as he got home he was going to talk to Wolf about it. The sooner they could make it happen, the sooner he and Mack could start to make up for lost time.
