Chapter 46

Kasey

Kasey had dreamed of being in Jay’s arms since she had kicked him out of her house, so her insides melted when his hands roamed her body. He walked with ease, climbing the steps as if he knew his way around her place. Their tongues danced together while she tugged at his hair, pulling him away while pressing their lips together, desperate for more.

“Where’s your bedroom?” Jay asked her, his lips bright red and a little swollen.

“Right,” Kasey answered, before pulling him back to her. Jay didn’t resist, kissing her passionately as he moved into her bedroom.

Kasey was insecure for a short moment when they entered her room. Jay placed her on the bed as if she was made of glass, before glancing around the room, which was a fraction of the size of his own. She swallowed slowly, wondering what he thought about her place.

“I imagined your room to be more—pink,” he looked down at her as he unbuttoned his shirt.

“Did you think I was a teenager?” she shot back, wiggling out of her black satin pajama pants before she pulled the camisole over her head, purposely ripping the hair tie from her hair in the process.

She was so aroused, even her hair falling against her back sent shivers down her spine as she watched Jay undress. His eyes locked onto hers. His tattoos were so sexy and again, unexpected; Kasey couldn’t imagine ever getting used to seeing him so intimately.

It was such a relief to learn the truth, and to her surprise, her feelings wasted no time returning in full force. The truth was, she had never stopped wanting him, and knowing that he felt the same set her on fire.

“Come here,” she beckoned with her index finger, and Jay followed, biting his bottom lip as his eyes wandered over her body.

“God, I missed you,” he groaned.

Kasey opened her mouth and his tongue pushed past her lips before she could find the words, and she moaned instead. Their bodies melted together as if nothing had ever come between them.

Jay eased her down onto her back, his tongue caressing hers as her shoulder blades settled onto the mattress. He cupped her face in his warm hands and broke away from their kiss to stare down into her eyes. Then he pushed his hips between her thighs, and she opened her legs until her knees rested upon the mattress. He dropped low and moved his hips up and down to trace his cock along the slippery wetness of her pussy.

“I missed you more,” Kasey whispered.

Jay traced her cheekbones with his thumbs as he pushed the tip of his cock inside her. Kasey’s breath caught in her throat and she reached up to cling to his shoulders as he eased deeper inside of her.

She had missed the fullness of him and their bodies worked together to push him further and deeper.

“Baby,” he growled, burying himself deep inside her with a need she could feel in every bone of her body. His thrusts became more powerful and soon his thighs were slapping against hers. The impact echoed around the room as Kasey came undone beneath him.

Kasey screamed his name, her back arching as her orgasm crept up from the depths of her belly.

She felt him everywhere—from the tips of her toes to the hairs standing on the back of her neck. She was alive for the first time since their split, and when she finally let go, the stress of the past few weeks poured out of her like a fountain.

“Give it to me, Kasey,” Jay growled, lifting himself before falling into her hard and fast as she exploded around him, her climax taking over.

Jay wasn’t far behind, working into her hard and fast until he could take no more, shooting hot semen before slowing to a stop as Kasey gripped him tightly. Their bodies rocked together slowly, a thin sheen of sweat working like glue between them as Jay whispered her name.

Kasey was spent and sated, blinking as she tried to make sense of everything. She couldn’t help but question if it was just another of her many dreams of him, but as he looked down into her wide eyes, she knew it had to be real.

In one motion, Jay rolled onto his back, taking Kasey with him until she was resting on his hard chest with his arms draped around her.

“These sheets are the devil,” he shook his head, still struggling to catch his breath, the satin clinging to their wet bodies.

“They’re not really for the active lifestyle,” Kasey giggled.

She didn’t want to admit it, but Kasey had never welcomed a man into her bed. It was her private sanctuary, too sacred for a random hook-up, which was all her sex life had consisted of over the past few years.

Her career was her life, and she had no regrets about it. Her dedication was the main reason she had reached a level of success much higher than her peers, so she was willing to sacrifice whatever was necessary.

Jay was the first person to ever make her believe she could have both—a relationship and a career. He was the total package, and having him back felt like a dream she didn’t want to wake from.

“What are you thinking about?” Jay disrupted her thoughts. She glanced up to see him staring at her inquisitively.

“Oh,” she blushed, unaware that he had been watching her. Publishing was her life, and although she wanted a romantic relationship with Jay, there was a longing inside of her to make things rights at Passions Publishing.

That was Jay’s life, and she wanted to be a part of it. Besides, she felt immense guilt for how everything had gone into flames over his deal with Renee. While she couldn’t honestly say that things would have been different if he’d revealed his true intentions earlier, now that he had, she wanted to restore his company.

“I have some ideas for Passions,” she finally answered, thinking of an idea she had been contemplating for months.

There was a new way of working with clients she wanted to introduce, and she was happy to lend her creativity to Jay. He had inspired her on more than one occasion, before she even knew him personally. Now that she had the privilege of getting to know him so intimately, she wanted to help him more than ever.

“Don’t worry about business, Kasey,” he smiled from the side of his mouth, wrapping his arms around her tightly.

“What are you planning to do?” she asked, knowing there had to be several strategies rolling around in his head.

“It doesn’t matter. I can rebuild Passions, but what we had could never be replaced.” He shook his head, as if the thought of not having her was unbearable, and she felt it in her groin.

Climbing on top of him, she straddled Jay while her mind raced with ways she could help take him back to the top, only this time they’d be there together.

“What are you doing?” he laughed, while his hands cupped her ass.

Kasey answered with a kiss, lifting her hips as she positioned herself above him, grinding her sex against his erection, ready for more, in more ways than one.
