The Alpha Male Romance Boxed Set (4 page)

"I prefer to drink it this way," he teased, setting the glass back down on the table.

"Me too," she gasped.

Chuckling, Alex ran his tongue between her folds once more, before focusing his efforts on her clit. His tongue flicked and circled the hardened nub as Jade's body became overwhelmed with need. Alex moved further down, licking and sucking at her pussy lips ensuring each and every drop of wine was gone before moving on.

It was sheer agony. She wanted his cock so badly that her body was in agony. Her hips thrust up against his mouth as his tongue and lips made their way to her opening. He began plunging his tongue in and out of her, fucking her pussy mercilessly while his fingers stroked her clit.

Tremors began to overtake her body as she reached the summit of her desire. She was so close, so close. She bucked against his mouth with more force now. "Please," she cried out as a final wave of pleasure crashed through her and she came for him.

"So good," he groaned as he drank down her juices and once again licked her dry.

Spent and panting hard, Jade shivered as two more, smaller tremors rocked her body.

Standing, Alex scooped her up into his arms and held her tight to his chest. "Let's go where it's more comfortable."

Jade pressed her body close to him. Wrapping her arms tightly around his neck, she laid her head against his shoulder. "I like that idea."

Halfway to the bedroom he stopped mid-stride and doubled back to the coffee table.

"What…"

"We might want this," he explained wiggling his eyebrows. Giving her a wicked grin, he reached down and grabbed the wine bottle by the neck and proceeded to the bedroom.

"Hmm, well I can't say that I've ever licked wine from the hot body of a cop before," Jade teased, tracing the contours of muscle in his shoulder and chest.

"Never?" He feigned shock as he set her down on her feet and took a swig from the bottle.

"Nope." She reached between them, grasped his dick and gave it several fast, hard jerks, causing a low growl to come from him, before she released him and climbed onto the bed. Swaying her legs - knees tight together - back and forth, she eyed him, chewing at her bottom lip.

Placing the bottle on the night side table Alex looked at her, his lust-filled green eyes watching her legs sway back and forth. "We'll need to remedy that after."

"Hmmm." She stopped swaying her legs and dropped her knees, spreading her legs wide and exposing her moist, pink pussy to him. "After what?" As if she didn't know.

Her eyes traveled up and down his beautiful, firm body, and ended at his hard, erect cock which was begging for attention. If her pussy hadn't been on fire at that moment, she would have crawled over to him and taken it into her mouth again.

Chuckling he climbed onto the plain double bed with her, positioning himself between her legs. "After I find out how nicely my dick fits this tight pussy of yours." Reaching between her legs, he parted her folds and thrust two fingers deep into her.

Jade gasped and closed her eyes. Pleasure and anticipation rushed through her as he stroked her inner wall, hitting her g-spot with precision and perfect accuracy. "Oh-my-god! Please, Alex."

Leaning over her, while still caressing her, he nipped at her earlobe. "Where are they?"

They? Who? What? Oh-God
.

She had no idea what he was talking about. "Wait. Oh God!" She clutched at his shoulders and bucked against his hand.

"I didn't bring any with me. I didn't think that…"

"Night...table. Drawer. By-the-bed." When he started to pull away she grasped tighter to his shoulders and brought him back down to her. Brushing her lips against his, she slipped her tongue into his mouth and deepened the kiss, kissing him with more passion and urgency than she'd kissed anyone before. Moments later she released him. "Hurry!"

"Demanding little thing," he chided, giving her another quick kiss. Jade watched impatiently as he went to the night table and found what he was looking for inside.

"I waited over a month for you to ask me out, I think I've been patient enough," she protested with a grin.

"Yes, I suppose you have." Rejoining her on the bed, Alex lay on his back next to her, slipping his hands behind his head. "So if you want it that badly, get over here and take it."

Alex watched intently as Jade straddled him and positioned herself over his cock. Her breasts jiggled ever-so-slightly as she grasped his cock and ran it back and forth between her folds. Alex closed his eyes and groaned. He'd felt how tight she was earlier and it had had taken all his self-control to keep from fucking her on the sofa.

Opening his eyes back up, he caught her gaze, unfolded his hands from behind his head, grasped her thighs and urged her down onto his cock. "I need to be in you Jade," he groaned.

With a shy smile, and without further teasing she rammed his cock deep into her - to the hilt. She cried out, as her head fell back. "Damn, you feel good!"

"Oh fuck yeah!" That was an understatement in his mind. Her pussy fit him like a deliciously warm, moist glove. She began slowly moving up and down on him, her muscles tightening around his cock with each upward thrust.

Holding tight to her thighs he kept her steady as she began to increase her speed, pulling up slowly and then ramming down onto him fast and hard. Each time she took him in, she'd make soft whimpering and moaning noises that were driving him almost as crazy as the feeling of being inside of her.

"Lean back," Alex instructed.

She didn't answer, but did as was requested, bracing herself with her hands on his thighs, back arched, her long brown hair cascading down her back, and her breasts thrust out. Alex had never seen anything so sexy in his life. Her cries became louder as the head of his cock started rubbing against her inner wall.

"That's it sweetie, ride my cock," he reached between her legs, and began to stroke her clit as she rocked on him. He'd barely had a chance to work her clit when her body tensed and she was overtaken by a series of slight spasms. Her pussy clenched his cock and then a gush of her warm nectar surrounded him seeping down his shaft to coat his groin and balls.

"Of fuck!" he groaned, the feel of her coming was almost his undoing. "Keep going sweetie."

He bucked up against her, urging her on. Still panting heavily and recovering from the explosion she'd just experienced she regained herself and continued rocking on his cock, faster and with more force than she had previously. In and out, his cock appeared and disappeared into her moist depths. His body was close, so close. But hers... he could feel she was building quickly to come a second time so he fought to hold back.

"Come for me again, sweetie. One more time."

"God yes, so close." she groaned.

Grabbing hold of her waist, in one swift motion he flipped her to her back, without withdrawing from her, and began ramming fast and hard into her. He'd only gotten three thrusts into her when he felt her small, soft body tremble under him.

As if on cue his cock and balls hardened to an unbearable extent and he had no choice but to release. A wave of pleasure washed through him as he rammed that final time into her and unloaded, hitting his climax just as she was hitting hers.

Lowering his mouth to hers, he kissed her tenderly, his lips brushing against hers before taking her lower lip into his mouth and lightly sucking. Parting her lips for him, her tongue sought out his. He sighed against her mouth as their tongues danced and he took one last second to savor the feel of her warmth surrounding his dick.

Pulling out, he got up, quickly tossed the condom into the wastebasket and then rejoined her on the bed. He pulled her tightly to him, kissing her temple and tucking her head under his chin, while running his fingertips along her soft curves.

No matter how good he felt at that moment with her cuddled next to him, he still couldn't push out the guilt that nagged at him. He'd lied to her at the movie theatre. He did actually know who that woman was. He knew her far better than he wished he did.

Nadine Robichaud was the woman's name. She was the reason he hadn't dated for almost six month. He had dated her for a while several years ago and had foolishly proposed to her. Little did he know she'd had male acquaintances on the side the entire time they had been together. When he found out, he had immediately called off the wedding and washed his hands of her.

The problem was that she didn't seem as eager to give up on him, even several years later. She seemed to pop up out of nowhere, usually whenever he found someone he thought had potential. Like the sweet Jade lying next to him. The fact that she was at the theater he was sure was a sheer coincidence, but now that Nadine knew he was dating someone again, she’d be back with a vengeance.

Alex knew he should tell Jade, warn her, but deep down he was a coward. Scared that the woman he'd had a crush on for weeks, and finally had lying next to him would tell him to shove off and walk out of his life, if she knew he carried such baggage. So Alex opted for hoping this time would be different. He'd tell Jade about Nadine some time down the road, but for now he simply hoped this relationship wouldn’t end the way the others all had, at the hands of his meddling ex.

"I just don't understand what is going on. It makes no sense." Jade threw a few aspirin into her mouth and took a swig of coffee. She was grateful it was an extremely slow night; she doubted she could handle many customers tonight. She certainly couldn't put on the charm to get them the tips tonight. She was stressed and exhausted and simply didn't have it in her.

"Are they still coming in as frequently?"

Jade nodded. "Yep. Every day. Same stuff. Some woman calls from a blocked number calls me a bitch, hussy, fiancé stealer, whore. I guess whatever comes to mind at the time and then hangs up on me."

"Hasn't it been a month now?" Jenny frowned and shook her head. "What is Alex saying about all this?"

"He tells me to ignore it. I'm having the number disconnected tomorrow and relisted as a private number so that should fix the problem."

"It's still creepy."

Jade huffed. "Tell me about it."

Ding
.

"Want me to get that?" Jenny asked dropping the dishrag into the soapy dish water.

"Nah, I can handle it." Walking towards the drive-thru window Jade spewed off her greeting and took the order from an oddly familiar voice for a single large coffee.

Opening the window she gave the woman driving a small lime green car a smile, but the smile quickly faded. She didn't know how she knew the woman, but she did - somehow - and she knew it wasn't for a good reason. High school. Nope. She continued to search her brain for the information as she passed the woman the coffee and recited the total.

"You're a fiancé stealing whore, you know that?" the woman spat at her, batting the coffee with the back of her hand and sending it sailing towards Jade, drenching the front of her uniform with the scalding hot brew.

Luckily she'd been cleaning the ovens and was still wearing the thermal apron which warded off the lion’s share of the hot liquid.
The woman from the telephone. Oh-my-god, the woman from the movie theatre
. The voice and face was clear now.

Jade shook her head and pressed the 'p
rivate' button on her headset so Jenny could hear what was going on. "I don't know what you're talking about. I think you have me confused with someone else."

The woman laughed while glaring at her. "I know you've been fucking Alex Kane. He's
mine
," she hissed.

"Alex?" Jade blinked.
What in the hell is she talking about? What kind of crazy bitch is this?

"And if you think for one instant I'm going to let him go for some fat coffee pusher you have another thing coming."

Fat? Me? Maybe I could stand to lose five or ten pounds but... fat?

"Is there a problem I can help you with ma'am?" Jenny's voice came from behind Jade. While Jade was shy and easy-going, Jenny was abrupt and no nonsense.

The woman looked from Jenny to Jade then back again. "Nah. I think the little tramp got the message." Without another word she sped out of the drive-thru and disappeared into traffic.

"What is going on Jade? Are you alright?"

The confused look still evident on her face, Jade shrugged. "I have no idea. She tosses a coffee at me, calls me fat and accuses me of stealing her fiancé. I think it's the woman who's been calling me, the woman from the movie theatre on our second date."

Crossing her arms over her ample chest, Jenny looked down at Jade sympathetically, "Maybe you need to have a little chat with your man, Jade."

Jade nodded. "Yeah," turning to the polished chrome milk machine she examined her distorted image in the surface, "Am I fat?"

Busting out laughing, Jenny patted her on the shoulder. "Honey, I have more fat in my left ass cheek than you have on your entire body."

Laughing along with Jenny, Jade then released a sigh and removed her drenched apron.

"And hey, I think you might be able to get your answers in less than two minutes." Jenny nodded to the patrol car which was turning into the drive-thru.

"Damn, what an exhausting night. I swear every crazy in Portland is out tonight," Alex groaned pulling up to the drive-thru speaker.

"Must be the full moon," his partner joked.

"It's us honey, can we come up?"

"Yeah."

Alex frowned, something in her tone wasn't right.

"What's the problem?" Constable Torrance asked upon seeing Alex's expression.

"I don't know." he was getting an uneasy feeling in the pit of his stomach and immediately the image of Nadine came to mind. "Fuck." he muttered under his breath as he pulled through to the window.

When they arrived at the window, Jade had their order ready as usual, but the sweet smile and cute flirting he was normally greeted with was missing, replaced by a blank, hurt expression.

Taking the coffee and food from her, he frowned. "What's wrong, sweetie? Bad customer?"

Jade shrugged, avoiding his gaze. "You could say that."

Putting the car into park and shutting it off Alex leaned through the window and took her hand. "What's going on?"

Finally she met his eyes and the pained expression tore at his heart. "Who is she Alex?"

Alex hesitated.
Oh, for the love of God, please don't let her mean Nadine
.

"The girl from the movie theater, the girl that's been calling me, the girl that less than five minutes ago threw coffee at me and told me I was screwing her fiancé!"

Alex's mouth dropped. His worst nightmare was becoming a reality. Nadine had found Jade and would terrorize her until Jade either quit her job and moved or ended it with him out of pure frustration. That was, of course, if she would forgive him for saying he didn't know who the mystery caller had been.
Damn it!

"Look Jade, I haven't been completely honest with you about something."

Jade's eyes narrowed. "Why? What's going on Alex?"

Fuck!

"Look. Open up, I want to come in and see you." Leaving the patrol car situated in the drive-thru, he hopped out and walked over to the side door and waited for her to let him in.

Standing on the other side of the glass, Jade hesitated as though she was considering whether she should even be talking with him.

"Please Jade," he could hear the desperation in his own voice and evidently so could she because she unlocked the door and allowed him in.

He immediately made an attempt to hold her, but she pushed him away, taking several steps back and glaring at him.

"Explain it to me."

Alex let out a ragged sigh and ran a shaky hand through his hair. "I was engaged. Once before. Years ago, I told you that. Well, it was to her."

"She says you’re
still
engaged to her," Jade countered.

Alex shook his head. "No. Absolutely not. She is a little... well a lot, unstable. She's why I hadn't dated for over six months... until you. She gets off by screwing with my life, in particular, making sure I never find someone else."

Jade huffed. "Why would she do that?"

He shrugged. He was still trying to figure that out himself, it had been several years and he had yet to figure it out, other than her being mentally unstable. "I swear to you I don't know."

"You're a cop Alex, this is the type of shit you're supposed to be protecting people from, but you can't even keep it out of your own relationships! She's been harassing me from the beginning. For a month Alex! And you let it happen! You know how upset those phone calls were making me!"

"You know it can't be true, right? You're the only woman for me. You know that right?" He caught her chin in his palm and lifted her eyes to meet his. "Right? We work the same hours and for a month now we've spent every waking second together, I practically live at your apartment now."

Her features seemed to soften. "What are you going to do about it? About this mess you allowed to happen?"

Fuck if I know,
he groaned inwardly. There was only one thing he could do other than end the relationship and that option was off the table - end of discussion. However, he hated the thought of doing the only other option available to him.
