Serendipity (Inevitable) (41 page)

Julia frowned. “I thought Angela was going to drive you to the airport.”

Lauren grimaced. “She’s not in any shape to drive right now. Better to let her sleep it off. Now, give your big sis a hug. I’ll email you from Kathmandu.”

The twins shared an affectionate hug, Julia cautioning her sister to be careful, and Lauren carelessly brushing off her concern.

Lauren waved at Nathan. “I’d hug you goodbye, too, sweetie, but I don’t think Jules would like that very much, given your - er lack of attire. So just make sure you treat her like a queen or I’ll be using you for my next kung-fu practice.”

Dressed in tight jeans, Ugg boots, and a leather jacket, her hair in a ponytail, Lauren grabbed her bags and headed out just as her cab tooted its horn. Only then did Nathan venture out from behind the kitchen counter, and instantly sweep Julia into his arms.

“Is she always like that?”

Julia grinned. “You mean my shy, sweet and submissive twin?”

Nathan made a rude noise. “None of those words would ever be attributed to your sister. More like ballbreaking, fearless, and terrifying. I assume she takes after your father?”

“Some. But truth be told Dad is kind of scared of her, too. Lauren is just – formidable. She has to be, you know, to succeed at her profession.”

“The way she acts one would think her profession is an assassin, not a photographer,” he muttered darkly. “Christ, I feel sorry for any guy crazy enough to make a pass at her. She’s probably into tying them up or something.”

Julia giggled. “Now you’re just being silly.” She wrapped her arms around his waist and nuzzled her face against his bare chest. He let out a low groan when she flicked her tongue over his nipple, and slipped her hand beneath the back of his briefs to cup his ass.

“I never did get to give you a good morning kiss,” he murmured, threading his hands into her hair. “You looked so peaceful, so happy, that I couldn’t bear to wake you up.”

She sighed with pleasure as his lips trailed a path from her temple to her cheek to the corner of her mouth. “You should have woken me. From now on, every morning that we’re together, I want you to wake me with a kiss.”

“Your wish is my command, baby.” He claimed her mouth in a lazy, lingering kiss, his tongue making slow, thorough sweeps through her mouth. Julia slid her hands up his bare back, caressing his skin, and causing a shiver of arousal to pass through his entire body.

She gasped when his hands slid up her waist to cup her breasts through the slippery satin of her robe. Her nipples were already hard as he flicked his thumbs over them. Still kissing her, Nathan deftly untied the sash, parting the robe, and revealing the lush curves of her naked body to his hot gaze.

He fondled the swollen mounds of her breasts, loving the way she whimpered in arousal. He bent his head to tug a nipple into his mouth, sucking her hard, as his other hand slid to her bare buttocks. He held her in place as he ground his erection against her mound, only the thin fabric of his briefs separating them.

“Christ, what you do to me,” he rasped. “You’ve got me ready to explode already.”

Before he could stop her, she dropped to her knees and pulled his briefs down over his hips, taking his cock in her hands. Nathan’s eyes shut, his head falling back as he groaned in ecstasy as her small, soft hands stroked him. Julia ran her tongue up and down his rigid cock, flicking the slit at the broad crown, and sucking the pearly bead of pre-cum.

Her hand fisted him, squeezing him. “This is mine,” she declared fiercely, mimicking his own possessive words from last night. “From now on I’m the only one who gets to touch this, lick this, suck this.” She pumped him slowly. “I’m the only one who gets to have this big cock fuck me.” She reached back to cup his swollen, aching balls. “These are mine, too. Got all that, lover?”

He gave a feeble laugh, too aroused and needy to marvel at how fierce and possessive his previously ladylike and reserved Julia was acting. And then he couldn’t think at all as she took his throbbing erection deep into her eager mouth.

“Oh, baby, that’s so good,” he grunted. “So fucking good. That’s it, my sweet Julia. Ah, you suck me so good with that delicious mouth.”

He held her head, guiding her mouth up and down, thrusting a little deeper into her with each movement. He was close, so close to losing it, to shooting his load off down her throat. He was lost in the sweet, hungry way she devoured him, the way her lips and tongue kept bringing him to the edge, the feel of her hand fondling his balls.

But just when he was almost ready to blow, he pulled out of her mouth, and urged her to her feet. He sat on one of the barstools near her kitchen counter and pulled her between his legs.

“Ride me, baby,” he muttered. “I want us to come together. Are you wet?”

In answer, she straddled his lap, lifting her hips high enough to impale herself on his cock in one swift, sudden movement. She was wet and hot, and took him deep inside her body, all the way to the root. She cried out with the intrusion but made no move to dislodge him.

Nathan grit his teeth and gripped her hips. “Jesus, baby. Give a man some warning next time. Am I hurting you?”

She twined her arms around his neck and began to bounce up and down on his rigid cock. “God, no,” she breathed. “You feel so good, Nathan. I was so wet from sucking your cock, so needy. But I wanted you to come in my mouth.”

He licked her nipple, her engorged breasts nearly at the level of his mouth. “Tough. I didn’t get to give you a good morning fuck in bed. So I’m giving it to you now.”

His hands at her hips moved her in conjunction with his thrusts, her thighs wrapped around his, his cock buried to the balls inside of her pussy. She was already so wet and aroused that it only took a few hard thrusts and the merest flick of his thumb on her clit to set off her climax. Nathan finally let himself find release, his mouth clamping down on her breast as he came long and hard.

They half-walked, half-stumbled into her bathroom where he turned on the shower taps while she grabbed towels for them. Then they were in the shower, under the hot, steamy water, washing each other, their wet, soapy hands caressing bare flesh. Julia pulled his head down to her, kissing him open-mouthed and rubbing her breasts against his chest.

“Hmm, greedy girl,” he scolded, his hands cupping her bare ass as he ground himself against her. “You’re not trying to get me hard again, are you?”

Julia’s hand captured his rapidly hardening dick. “I think we’re already beyond trying, lover,” she snickered. “Are you always this horny first thing in the morning?”

He gave her a hard swat on the ass, which only caused her to stroke his cock more aggressively. “Only with you, baby,” he hissed into her ear. “You’d think it had been ten days since I last came, instead of ten minutes. I should be wrung dry now – coming three times in about eight hours – but you’ve got me hard again. I think you’re a witch. Or a devil.”

She nipped his earlobe as she pumped his cock. “And I think you’re a stud.” She slid her hand back to squeeze his testicles, making him groan. “
My
stud. You love me so good, baby. I’ve never come so easily or so hard before. Only with you.”

Nathan slipped two fingers deep inside her cunt, fucking her as she continued to stroke his penis. As he felt himself drawing ever closer to release, he added a third finger and flicked the hard bud of her clit with his thumb. He felt her convulse around his fingers, heard the ragged sounds of her breath, and he couldn’t hold back a second longer. He came in her hand almost violently, spilling himself until his body finally stopped shuddering in release.

He groaned as he felt Julia’s small, soapy hands on his still semi-hard cock, her voice whispering wickedly, “Mmm, just when we’d gotten you all nice and clean you got dirty again. Guess we’ll have to start all over, baby.”

Chapter Sixteen

Nathan closed his eyes in ecstasy, licking his lips and giving a little groan. “My God, woman. Not only are you drop dead gorgeous and an insatiable dynamo in bed, but you’re also the most amazing cook. I can’t believe you just whipped that meal up so fast.”

Julia grinned. “Want another mimosa?” She held up the nearly empty bottle of champagne.

He patted his washboard flat abs. “No thanks, baby. I couldn’t eat or drink one more thing.” His light blue eyes twinkled wickedly. “Well, unless that thing was a sexy, green-eyed siren with long hair and big -“

She laid her index finger over his lips. “I get it. And as yummy as that sounds I need a little time to recover, stud. You weren’t kidding last night when you told me I wouldn’t be able to walk today. I’m a little wobbly.”

He smirked. “Guess I’ll just have to carry you, then. Not to mention help you with the dishes.”

She squeezed his hand. “I love a domesticated man. I’ll wash, you dry.”

After their sensual shower, they’d tumbled back into her bed and fallen asleep for a couple of hours. This time Nathan had woken her with the slow, lazy fuck he’d promised her earlier – light, teasing kisses, gentle caresses, tender lovemaking. It had been so sweet, so beautiful, that she’d had tears in her eyes as she’d climaxed. He had kissed them away, telling her that he never wanted to make her cry again, and she’d replied that they had been tears of happiness.

Julia had quickly put together a breakfast of French toast, bacon, sliced fruit, French pressed coffee, and the mimosas. They had eaten heartily, both of them wrung out from their numerous and very physical bouts of sex, and needing the nourishment badly.

“Do you have plans for this weekend?”

She shook her head at his question. “After spending most of this past week entertaining Lauren, I’m ready for a peaceful weekend.”

“Me, too. And I want to spend it with you.”

Julia bit her lower lip worriedly. “You know, we haven’t discussed the elephant in the room. Namely your fiancée.”

He sighed heavily, thrusting a hand through his hair. “I know.”

“Aren’t you supposed to see her sometime this weekend? I’m a little surprised you weren’t with her last night.”

“Cameron’s in Vegas for the weekend with some of her college friends. I’m supposed to pick her up at the airport tomorrow night. That gives me about thirty six hours to work up the nerve to end things with her.”

Julia slid onto his lap, wrapping her arms around his neck and resting her head against his. “Oh, Nathan, I’m sorry. I know that’s going to be hell for you. I wish there was something I could do to make it easier.”

He slid his arms around her waist, burying his face between her breasts. She was wearing the apricot satin robe she’d had on earlier, and he loved the feel of the smooth fabric as he ran his hand up and down her hip.

“You make everything better just by being here. And I haven’t quite figured out what to say to her. I know whatever I say isn’t going to make it any less painful, and that it’s going to be ugly and nasty no matter what.”

She pressed a kiss to his forehead. “You probably shouldn’t tell her about us. Break off the engagement for some other reason. She’ll probably be a little less likely to freak out that way.”

Nathan frowned. “If I do that, we’re going to have to be discreet about our relationship for awhile.”

Julia smiled naughtily. “You mean like keeping you all to myself? Like we’re having some sort of sexy, illicit affair? Hmm, I’d have to think about that.”

He nipped ear earlobe. “Brat. But I’m being serious here, baby. We will need to keep things private for a little while. If you’re serious about what you said, that is.”

“I am. Don’t get me wrong. There’s nothing I want more than to announce to everyone that you’re my man now, and that we’re crazy in love with each other. But I’m trying real hard to be sensitive about Cameron’s feelings. And to make things a little easier for you.”

Nathan gave her a lingering kiss. “I appreciate that. Not sure how much it will help, and to be frank I’m guessing Cameron is going to suspect something amiss anyway. But if we can try and be a little discreet for a couple of months at least we won’t be rubbing her face in it.”

“Agreed. You realize, of course, that means spending a whole lot of time indoors. Alone. Wonder what we’ll be able to do to pass the time.”

She gasped as he cupped her breast through the satin robe, his thumb flicking over the nipple. He grinned. “I’ve got lots and lots of ideas, baby. Want to hear some of them?”

Julia clutched his head to her breasts as he spread the robe apart and began to lick her nipple. “Actually,” she panted,” I want to hear all of them.”

It was early afternoon before they finally left her flat. Nathan was still wearing last night’s jeans and shirt, which was the primary reason they headed out towards his condo first. The sun was shining warmly, allowing Julia to have chosen a black and white batik printed sundress and black wedge sandals.

Nathan picked up her hand and brought it to his lips. “Even when you’re casually dressed, you still look like a million bucks.”

“Glad you like it.”

He released her hand as he shifted gears in the BMW. “I’m still a little speechless about that closet of yours. Someday very soon you’re going to put on a private fashion show for me, especially all that sexy lingerie. I’m going to be imagining you in that sheer black lacy thing I pointed out to you all day. What did you call it?”

“It’s a chemise slip. Worn with a matching thong. And stockings, since it has attached garters.”

Nathan groaned. “Enough. I’m trying to let you rest up in time for tonight. I’m already breaking my promise about keeping you in bed all weekend.”

“But I have to feed you, honey. You’ll need your strength for tonight.” Julia ran a finger teasingly over his lips.

Besides stopping by his condo for clean clothes and toiletries, they were also hitting a supermarket to stock up on supplies. Julia had promised to cook him an incredible dinner, despite his repeated offers to take her out somewhere. She’d told him she liked pampering him, taking care of him, and sensed that he wasn’t used to such treatment from Cameron.
