At Your Mercy (VIP The Pink Collection, #1) (5 page)

Jax bends down on one knee, at eye level with
me. "Ivy, let's begin our new journey now. This is a new
beginning—for you, me … for us. The past is our foundation, but in
the here and now, falling in love is beyond our control. I'm
willing to try. Are you?"

My tears flow down my cheeks. I scoot up to
the end of my chair and kiss him. A long, demanding kiss. A moan
escapes my mouth.

"Ah, is that a yes?" He pulls back, looking
at me with knowing eyes.

"Jax … you are my remedy. Yes, of course it's
yes." I want to give us a chance. I need to have the courage and
believe in what my heart is telling me."

We stand up simultaneously and embrace one
another. I feel one with him and will never let him go.

"What time?" I say, staring at the bedroom
ceiling. Violet doesn't even know how to take a vacation. Checking
in with me daily is clearly not what people do while they're on
vacation. "And you've emailed me the client's profile?"

Jax is nibbling on my earlobe, and the
masculine scent of him drives me crazy.

"Hold on, Violet." I put my phone on mute and
roll over in our bed to face him. "Jax, no," I plead for him to
stop.

He laughs with both hands up as if he's
innocent.

"Okay, I'll be there thirty minutes early." I
push the End button on my cell phone.

Jax says, "You need to learn to let voice
mail be your friend."

"Sweetheart, now that I'm the manager for
VIP, I need to be available at all times." I pout my lips and put
both of my hands on Jax's face and kiss him on the nose.

"Now where were we?" He bends between my legs
and trails kisses from my knee up my thigh. I try to move his head
to my moist heat. Jax sits up, showing me both dimples as he
smiles.

"Jax, you tease me awful. You know what I
want."

"Hmm, I'm at your mercy, Ivy. Whatever you
want. Whatever you need." And he buries his head between my thighs,
licking my throbbing nectar. "So sweet."

"Oh God, please …" I try to push his head
down harder. I want his tongue inside me. I can tell Jax is
enjoying my impatience. "You are doing this on purpose, Mr. Jaxson
Harrison Sterling."

He looks up at me with a crooked smile with
traces of my wet heat on his chin.

"Don't worry, Mrs. Ivory Olivia Sterling.
I'll give you exactly what you want. Always." Jax growls and with
his sinful tongue puts all of his attention on my pulsating ache. I
clench the satin bed sheets as my orgasm rips through me and takes
me to paradise.

My personality is type B, but if you ask my
closest family members, they would say she's totally type A. Born
and raised in Maryland, and currently living in Pennsylvania, I'm
happily married with enough kids to run my own daycare. While I
have dabbled in this and that to earn a living, it seems that I'm a
late bloomer. I realize reading is my passion and writing books
came out of nowhere.

When I'm not writing, I enjoy lying in my bed
wearing my holey pajamas while reading a good romance or thriller.
Thanks for wanting to get to know me better. But by far, my books
are much more exciting.
