man?”
She sighs. “It’s a long story, I’ll tell you later, ok?”
I frown, and then roll my eyes again. “Ok, later.”
I give everyone else a hug, release the children from the car and then turn to face the yard. To the left, I see rolls of fencing wire and a heap of toys to be put up. I turn to Ace and grin.
“You got all that for Code’s?”
“We can’t have the little man getting bored.”
I step forward and wrap my arms around him. He sighs deeply, and returns the hug with full force.
“Thank you, Ace, for this. For everything.”
“Always, kid.”
I pull back and stare at everyone. Rusty and Bull have pulled Jagger from the car, and are holding his floppy form.
“Thank you all so much for this. If keeping him out here doesn’t work, at least he has you all here. Maybe we can find a way to show him what it was he was so passionate about before.”
They all smile and nod.
“Ready?” Angel asks, dangling the keys in my face.
I swallow. “I’m ready.”
Ava is bouncing Leila in her arms, and Cody is running around like a mad child, thrilled with his new surroundings. When Angel gathers him up, much to his dismay, and carries him inside, I know it’s time to step into the past. I take a deep breath and step inside. The house hasn’t changed a bit, aside from the fact that it’s extremely dusty. I feel my heart clench as we walk up the stairs into the main living areas. I stare at the couch where Jagger patched me up, I stare at the kitchen where I tried to take my own life. So many memories. So much has happened since the days I was in this house. Jenny squeezes my hand and I give her my best attempt at a smile.
“How are you feeling?” she asks.
“It’s strange to be back, but it’s the best place we can be. He loved it out here.”
“Yeah, I’ve heard him talking about it.”
“All right,” Rusty and Bull say, dropping Jagger onto the couch. “Now we wait for him to wake.”
“How exactly did you knock him out?” I ask Ace.
“I drugged him.”
I sigh in relief.
“Did you think I literally knocked him out?” he snorts, laughing.
“Shut up, Ace,” I pout. “I wouldn’t put it past you.”
He chuckles. “No, I’m far too nice. All right, you girls need to go and get some food so we can all survive out here. We need to clean the place up. Willow, I’ll leave Jagger’s room to you.”
“Yes boss,” I mock.
Ace gives me a look and then turns to Jenny. “Before you get food, can we talk?”
Jenny nods, and they disappear into the other room. Everyone else begins preparing the house to make it livable. I stare over at Jagger’s bedroom door. Well, here goes. I walk slowly over, the floor creaks under my feet. When I reach his room, I open it and step in, flicking on the light. I stare at the large bed, with its dark covers. I walk in, unable to help the smile that creeps across my face as I remember being with Jagger on this very bed. I remember it like it was yesterday.
“You know the moment in life, when everything you thought you were is suddenly wrong? The moment that changes everything? It changes who you are, who you believe you are and who you’re going to be. You’re that moment, Willow.”
He whispers these words into my ear and my whole body gives way. I melt into the mattress, and into him. He doesn’t move his body off mine; instead, he pushes into me once more; his cock sliding into my wet heat and causing a whimper to escape. He moves slowly over me, sliding his hips backwards and forwards until I am shuddering and crying out once more.
“I hate that I want you, but I can’t stop,” he whispers into my ear, “I can’t stop this.”
“I know, oh God, I know.”
“Move your ass up Willow, let me fuck you deeper.”
His words cause a shiver to run through me. I raise my ass and he grips my hips, driving harder into me. I groan and tangle my fingers in the sheets until I’m coming around him again. He brings me to orgasm with
