Jared (The Protectors #2)(48)
Adam just sat staring at the beautiful girl sitting across from him. “I did know you were alive Angel.” When she started to deny, he stopped her. “Last year’s prom. You came with that douchebag Dan Stevens. You and he were slow dancing when our eyes met. The rest of the night I couldn’t keep my eyes off of you and I never wanted to hit anybody more than I wanted to hit douchebag Dan.”
“You’re just saying that.” She narrowed her eyes at him. “I would have known if you were looking at me because I was always looking at you.”
“You wore a lavender dress right above your knees with white lace.” He grinned at her shocked expression. “The lavender made your eyes even bluer.”
“Why didn’t you say anything to me?” She couldn’t hide the shock in her voice.
“Because I was with Ms. Perfect and you were with douchebag Dan.” He replied. “I wish I could redo that night and ask you to dance with me. Would you have danced with me Angel?”
She didn’t answer right away, but sat looking down at her hands which were folded tightly in her lap. Finally she looked up, a tear sliding down her pale cheek. “It would have been a dream come true.”
Adam reached out grasping the back of her neck pulling her close. “I was an idiot.”
She nodded with a small smile. “Yeah, you were.”
His lips stopped a breath from hers. “Am I forgiven?”
“Only if you kiss me.” She didn’t move closer, but sat still in anticipation.
“Forgiven it is then.” His lips finally met hers in a kiss that steamed up the windows in less than a minute.

Jared was where he wanted to be, between the legs of a beautiful woman. Their first joining had been fast and frenzied, their second a bit slower and more exploration and the third lazy and lasting. His arms, bended at the elbows, framed her head, his face inches from hers so he could place his mouth to her face, lips or neck, wherever they landed as he pumped into her tight warmth in a slow lazy rhythm. Her legs wrapped around his low back loosely as she met each of his thrust. Oh, hell yeah, he could keep this up all night, but the loud pounding on his door blew that thought straight to hell. His forehead fell to hers as he moaned. The pounding persisted.
“Go away!” He shouted at the door, his tone menacing. He looked back down at Tessa who smiled up at him, her hand touching the side of his face.
“It might be important.” She ran her thumb across his lips laughing when he sucked it into his mouth.
“The world better be f*cking ending, because that….” He frowned shaking his head. “No….not even that would be as important as this.” He winked at her, then growled when the pounding started again.
“Jared!” Damon yelled on the other side of the door.
“Go away Damon!” Jared yelled back. “I’m busy.”
“I don’t give a shit if you’re….” Silence from the door lasted only a second. “Oh.”
“Yeah, oh!” Jared rolled his eyes. “Now go the f*ck away!” This was seriously ruining the moment which was pissing him off.
“Well you know what hotshot.” Damon called back with a couple pounds to the door. “I remember a few times when I was….busy…and you wouldn’t go the f*ck away. Now get your ass out here. The council is here wanting to talk to us.”
“Dammit!” Jared hadn’t stopped his love making, didn’t miss a beat during all of that back and forth.
“You got five minutes before I come in there and get your ass.” Damon pounded a couple more times and Jared could have sworn he heard a chuckle.
“The door makes a creak and you’re a dead man.” Jared growled.
“Yeah, whatever. You got four minutes.” Damon’s voice faded down the hall.
Jared sighed. “Guess now I understand why he always wanted to kill me. I must of drove him and Nicole nuts. Guess payback is going to be hell.” He chuckled as he picked up his pace nuzzling her neck.
“Maybe you should have thought about that before you started pounding on their door while they were….busy.” She chuckled, enjoying the feel of his heaviness on her.
“I love the smell of honeysuckle.” His lips vibrated against the curve of her neck. Without thought he rolled, keeping them together. “You finish us. I’ve been on top all night.”
Tessa just sat there staring down at him with wide eyes. “Umm, I don’t know how.” Her cheeks flamed.
“Just move honey.” Jared moaned when she did just that. His hands reached out to the flare of her hips running slowly up her sides to stop at her breast. They overfilled his large hands, her eyes had dropped watching, her tempo picking up. His eyes never leaving her face he rolled her nipples with light pressure watching as her head fell back as she rode him. Jared waited for a second before sending them both over the edge so she could feel the power of being in charge, but soon he couldn’t take much more and pinched her nipples sending them both over the edge and the loudest scream he’d ever heard came out of Tessa’s mouth.
Tessa slumped across Jared, her breathing ragged before stopping altogether. She sat straight up, her breast swaying as her hand slapped across her mouth. “Oh my God! Did I just scream?”
Jared laughed, pulling her back down to him. “Music to my ears babe.” He loved her shyness. She was such a mix he never knew from one minute to the next what he was going to get…shy Tessa, hellcat Tessa, funny Tessa or compassionate Tessa. He was finding out real fast he liked them all. He rolled her over pinning her to the bed. “When I get back I plan to make more music.”
