VIOLET

I walked out of the shower in a towel, leaving Jayce inside to finish up. He needed to shave or something. I wandered over to my suitcase and picked out a pair of panties and bra and laid them out on the bed. Before I could slip them on, my phone rang. I raced to the nightstand to see who was calling. It was Janet.

Sighing reluctantly, I answered it. If it had been anyone else, including my parents, I probably would’ve let it go straight to voicemail.

“Hi Janet,” I said, breathlessly.

“Hey. Is your car fixed now? Have you got it back from the mechanic? Are you on the way?” she asked, all in a rush.

“Um…I’ve got my car back, but no, I’m not on the way…yet.”

“Yet?”

When I didn’t say anything right away, she asked, “ What’s up with that? You said you’d drive here once you got your car back. Is there something wrong with your car?”

I exhaled and sat down near the foot of the bed. I didn’t have it in me to lie to my best friend anymore. Withholding the whole truth, maybe. Outright lies that could come back to bite me later, no.

“I have to tell you something, but just don’t report me missing, okay?” I pleaded.

“What is it, Violet?”

“You have to promise you won’t report me.”

“Okay. I promise,” Janet stated.

“If my parents happen to call you, just tell them that I went shopping or something and don’t want to talk. I told them I needed space and peaceful time alone and I’ve found it. Right where I am.”

“Wha…ah…Are you still in the same town?”

“Yes, I’m still here. I met some good people last night and I think I’m gonna hang out here for a little while.”

There was silence on the other end. “Um…okay…I just thought you and I were going to get together and do something.”

Now, she was making feel like a complete loser. “I’m so sorry. I promise you, I’ll come. I’m still coming. I just want to stay here for a few more days.”

I grabbed a tube of moisturizing cream and threw it on the bed next to my undies.

“Well, okay. Your parents aren’t going to be happy about this. You know it’s only a matter of time before they call all your close friends including me. I’ll tell them what you told me this time, but I won’t be surprised if one of them tries to fly out here to get you,” Janet exclaimed.

I rolled my eyes. “They probably will. Or maybe they’ll just take the hint and leave me alone. Donovan’s just going to have to accept that our relationship is over. I can’t marry him. I know we should have just stayed friends, and knowing Donovan, he’ll hold a grudge over this for years. I care about him, but not like that.”

Janet sighed into the phone. “I know, Violet. You were just trying to be nice. You wanted to be his friend and be there for him and help him be the best man he could be and he had other ideas.”

“You’re like the only one who understands, but I’m not going to sit here and act like I was just innocent in all of this. I should have said no from the jump instead of letting my parents and all get invested into this.”

“Well, you don’t deserve to be hounded about it, that’s for sure. They should understand. This is your life.”

I smiled. “Thanks, Janet. I needed that. You’re a good friend.”

“Yeah, I know.” Janet giggled. “I feel so hurt that you’ve decided not to come. We were supposed to drink loads of champagne and eat chocolate cake until we got sick. You totally dropped the ball on me.”

I laughed. “We’ll get to do all of that, I promise.”

“So, who are these friends you met?”

“Um…” At that moment, Jayce came out of the bath wrapped in nothing but a towel.

Dear God. I didn’t know what it was, but it was like I was seeing him for the first time. I would never get tired of looking at him. He stalked toward me like a predator in the night. Still, there wasn’t nothing scary about the way he eyed me with a primal energy that consumed me. I felt my sex clenching in need and my nipples instantly beaded. We had just had sex. Wet sex in the shower. I was still craving him. What the hell was wrong with me?

“Violet?” Janet called out on the other line.

“I’m still here?”

“So tell me about this town? Where is it? Are you close to any major landmarks?”

“Uh, yeah…there are mountains. Big, hard mountains.” I eyed Jayce as he picked up the bottle of moisturizer off the bed.

“Mountains? Really. I haven’t been hiking in like forever. I loved it. Will you at least take some pictures for me to gawk over?” she asked.

“Sure.”

“So, tell me the exact name of the town. Jeez, I’m like the only one who knows where you are and if something happened to you…” She sighed hard into the phone. “Look, I respect that you’re trying to get away. I’m not going to tell anyone where you are. I swear it. But if you’re in trouble, I want to be able to help you and I need to know where you are.”

I looked at Jayce who made immediate eye contact with me. He nodded and said in a low voice. “You can tell her.”

“What did you say?” Janet asked.

“Arrow Lake,” I replied, hoping she didn’t ask more.

“Oh, nice. I think I’ve heard of that little town before.”

By this time, Jayce had already squeezed some moisturizer from the tube and was now rubbing his hands together. I thought he was going to use the cream on his gorgeous body, but he lifted one of my legs and started smoothing it on me.

My lips parted in pleasure.

“Violet?”

“Huh. Um…are you cooking breakfast or something? It’s about that time, right?” I blurted.

“It’s nearly noon. I’ve already had it. So, are you roomed up in a nice bed-n-breakfast somewhere? Mountain towns are usually known for having a few of those tucked in with the landscape.”

“Sort of.” I pressed my lips together to keep from moaning as Jayce’s strong fingers kneading my inner thighs.

“I’m going to forgive you this time for bailing out on me. I’d bail too if I found a nice little secluded town to play and shop around in.”

“I’ll make it up to you. I promise.”

“We’re good, hun. Plus, you have a lot more to worry about than me. Donovan is probably livid and your parents are probably checking all your cell phone records to find all your friends, including me. You know your dad is good at that stuff.”

At the mention of checking my cell phone records, something starting to irk me and a theory formed in the back of my mind. Before I could think any further on it, Jayce reached one of my erogenous zones right between my upper inner thighs.

He bent his head low and kissed my thigh.

“Oh…” I breathed.

“What?” Janet asked.

“Um…oh…so, I’ll check in again soon, okay?”

“You better. And here’s to hoping you meet a handsome hunk to entertain you while you’re there.”

I grinned, glancing down at Jayce as he worshipped my body. He wasn’t even applying the moisturizer anymore with his hands. His mouth was doing all the work.

“Bye,” I whispered and disconnected the call.

“Your friend sounds nice,” Jayce commented, between kisses.

“You heard all that?” I gawked.

He nodded. “Wolf ears, remember?”

“How much of it did you hear?”

“From the moment the phone rang,” he replied.

“Wow. Good thing I didn’t say anything bad about you,” I teased.

“It’s a good thing you didn’t,” he chuckled. “Because I’m not done with you yet.” He opened up the towel and pushed it back onto the bed.

“Jayce, your mouth feels so good.”

“Lay back,” he commanded. “I’m hungry.”

A wave of pleasure spread throughout my body as he spread my knees and settled between my thighs.

“I can’t believe how you’re always sweet and ready for me,” he rasped as he pressed warm kisses against my sex.

His tongue lapped through the full length of my pussy and I squealed.

“Just as I thought. Sweet. I’m going to make you come on my tongue,” he spoke against my clit.

He devoured me, dragging his tongue up and down my slit. His tongue was talented, entering me again and again, plunging me just like he did with his cock.

I relaxed, shifting from being propped on my elbows to having my back flat on the bed with Jayce’s mouth pleasuring between my legs.

He assaulted my clit, sucking the little bud between his lips and flicking it with gentle flicks of his tongue.

I cried out, unable to control the sensations flowing through me. My moans echoed throughout his room. The more I responded, the more he growled into my sex, driving me completely insane.

My sex clenched and convulsed and then I let go. My climax rolled through me like a violent tide. He tore his mouth away, licking his lips. His mouth was glazed with my juices and I grew hot seeing the evidence of my desire on him.

“Please…” I hooked my leg over his shoulder and pulled him all the way to me.

He directed his heavy cockhead to my entrance and sunk into my wet pussy. He closed his eyes and growled, lifting his face upward to the ceiling. He drove his steel-hard cock to the hilt. I came hard and suddenly within a few strokes.

To my disappointment, he pulled out, but then he flipped me over and dragged my torso up until I was on my hands and knees. The moment he entwined his fingers in my hair, I knew he was going to take me for another roller coaster ride. I lifted my hips upward and fell into bliss when he took me from behind.

He rode me hard and fast, working his hard rod in and out of me with record precision. I lost count of the number of times I came. I could only hope he didn’t have any neighbors nearby. If so, I felt sorry for them.

When the warmth of his seed filled me, I felt complete. Jayce was the man I needed. Not only that, the sex was amazing.

Someone pounded on Jayce’s front door while we were still panting on the bed. I didn’t need wolf ears to hear it. They were persistent with the pounding.

“Dammit. I wonder who that is?”

I grabbed the towel and covered myself with it.

Jayce leaned over to kiss me and said, “Get dressed. I’m going to see who it is. I’ll make you some breakfast too. You need some food in you.”

“Okay.” I had wanted him so much that I put food on the back burner. And that was a first.

I watched as he threw on a pair of slacks and a shirt and tear out of the bedroom. With the taste of Jayce still on me, I fell back on the bed and giggled like a school girl.

How was I going to leave this, leave Jayce? I had responsibilities, but after Jayce, I didn’t care about responsibilities. Those were on the back burner too.
