Part 7 (1/2)
Jamie held Dane in his arms and stewed. She was not as asleep as she had been, but she was still out. Pi said she didn't sleep long normally and that she would wake soon. She said that she would have a headache for a couple of days, but otherwise be fine. He wanted her awake now and without the headache. He kissed her forehead again.
When his mother and brother came in, Damon looked at Dane then at Devin. Devin walked to his brother and held him. It would be all right between them.
”I'm sorry, Jamie.” Damon hugged him too. ”I don't want anything to happen to either of them. I don't understand what she can do, but Mom said she's brilliant and that without her she wouldn't have been able to solve the murder of three children. I'm really sorry. I love you guys so much and I don't want-”
”I won't hurt your family, Dr. Grant,” Dane said as she sat up. ”Never. I'm really tired and if you guys don't mind, I'd like to go home.”
”Yeah, about that. There's a slight problem with you going home, Mrs...Dr...Dane.” Captain Tucker smiled at them as he continued. ”I just got a call from one of my officers and it seems you've had a break in. The place has been trashed and nothing was left untouched. I'm just on my way there now. If you'd like to wait until in the morning, I understand. It'll still be there.”
*CHAPTER 13*.
Dane cried herself to sleep. Jamie walked out into the hall, went to the kitchen to get a beer, and found Pi sitting in the dark. He almost stepped out again to leave her to her quiet when she spoke.
”Missy Dane like my daughter. I love girl so much I hurt when she does. I don't think I can leave her, Mister Jamie. What I do now?”
”What do you mean, Pi?” Jamie sat down across from her as he asked. ”Why would you have to leave her? She needs you now more than ever.”
”She think no man want her. She say that man who say he love her only want in her bed. I don't think Missy Dane believe that, she just say it to make hurt not so bad. That man she married to, he cruel to her. He try make me stay away and Missy Dane tell him to go to Hades.
She tell him that Pi mean more to her than ten of him. He slap her. She hit back and knock him on his b.u.t.t. He never hit her again.”
Jamie burst out laughing at that. Dane had one h.e.l.l of a punch and decided he'd be more careful in the future. He did not like that Wallace had hit her, but was happy to know that she could stand up for herself.
”I don't think you have to worry about me ever hitting Dane, Pi. I'm in love with her and while I will tell her that to get into her bed, it's not the only reason.” He grinned when she did.
”But tell me what has you so sad. And why you think you have to leave her. Do you want to return to China?”
”No. I want to be with her. I want to...will you let me have place close to her?” She looked at him with tears in her eyes. ”I need Missy Dane and she need me. I won't be problem.” It took Jamie a few seconds to realize what she meant. She was not leaving Dane. She thought he would make her leave Dane. Well, h.e.l.l. He reached out and took both her hands into his.
”Pi, if you don't want to live here with us too, then I can understand. I had hoped that you knew that you are as welcome here as Dane. She's my life, and with her comes you. I need you to be here for her when I can't. There's plenty of room and if not, then we'll get a bigger house.
This house was just something I got as part of the college tenure.”
”Missy Dane have big house, but she don't live in it.” There was so much hope in Pi's voice.
”Her granny leave it to her. It not far from here. She said too big for two people, maybe she sell it. It have big, big kitchen too. It have pool room too to change into white room for her. Missy Dane's granny need quiet room too.”
”Pool room?” It took him a second to understand what she meant. ”You mean pool house? I understand the white room. Dane said it gives her somewhere to go. Is that what you mean?”
”Yes. Missy Dane get sick again if that man don't let her build it.” This time, there was anger, hatred in her voice that he was shocked by. ”She tell him lots that she need down time, but he don't listen. He keep pus.h.i.+ng her, but she have no room to go to. You tell her not to go to man again. Tell her you need her here for babies.”
Babies. He wanted to have babies with Dane. Lots of them. They had not been using any kind of protection and he was almost sorry for that, but he could not help but hope that she would get pregnant with their child. Seeing little Paddy made him ache to see Dane swollen with his child.
”This man, what's his name? And what does he have that makes Dane help him? Does he have some secret that she...has he threatened her?” Something occurred to Jamie. ”With exposure. Has he told her if she doesn't help her he'll expose her?”
”Don't know. He is bad man. I don't like him and he know it. I told him I put a hex on his c.o.c.k so it never rise, but Missy Dane tell me behave. I hope his twig and berries fall off and some little mousey eat them for dinner.”
Jamie laughed. She may be difficult to understand at first, but Jamie was getting better and better at figuring her out. He knew that he had to make her know how much he needed her to stay too.
”Pi, we'll both talk to Dane in the morning. Then we're going to discuss where we'll all live.
I don't care where it is so long as the three of us are there as a family, all right?”
It took Dane several minutes to wake up. She started to roll over again and snuggle down into the blankets, but they were too heavy. She tried pulling and tugging, but it would not budge.
Finally, she sat up and jerked them.
”All you had to say was, 'James, I'd like more blanket, please.' I don't mind sharing, but to be jerked awake is kind of hard on the system.” She was suddenly lying back on the bed. ”And speaking of hard...good morning, love.”
The kiss was hungry and before she could stop herself, she was feeding him. His mouth could do so much in such a short span of time. When Jamie's tongue slid along hers, she moaned.
”Is there ever a time when you aren't hard? James, we should get...oh my, that feels so good. James, please, I have to go to...I have to go to...somewhere.” His chuckle skated along her nipples.
”I need you. And this is the first time I've had you in my bed. So this is as good a time as any to break it in.”
She realized she was naked about a second before he took her nipple into his mouth. He sucked at the tip so hard, she knew that she'd come if he kept it up. When she tried to run her fingers into his hair and hold him there, he pulled her arms above her head and held them there.
”You can't touch me. I want to make you so hot that as soon as I touch your pretty p.u.s.s.y, you go off. I plan to take my time this morning and you aren't going to rush me. Just feel me.” He worried her nipples and b.r.e.a.s.t.s until she thought she'd scream at him. Then when he started down her ribs and along her belly, Dane wanted to wrap herself around him and hold him tight. His mouth was like a hot blade, sliding along her skin and leaving a trail of heat in its wake. When he whorled his tongue in her belly b.u.t.ton and nipped at her there, she nearly came up off the bed.
”You like that, don't you? Hummm, you taste so good. Are you wet for me, Dane? I can smell your heat, your wet heat.”
When he slid his fingers into her curls, she tried to close her legs to him. No one had touched her like he did. No one had ever cared if she was wet. James seemed to love it.
”James, please. Just take me. It's hard to hold on when you do that. Please, come inside of me. I need to feel you deep inside.”
”I know you like to control, but not when we're in bed. I want you to feel what I'm doing to you. Feel what I'm feeling when I touch you, when I'm tasting you. Center on me, Dane, and what I'm feeling for you.”
She tried to block it out, but the more he touched her, the more of his body that touched her, the harder it was for her to pull back. It frightened her, these feeling she had for him. It made her want to pull back more, but he was not letting her.
”James, please. I don't want to hurt you. I just want you to have s.e.x with me. Please, I'm afraid.”
”Dane, I'm not going anywhere. I know you can feel this, me touching you. Center on us, focus on us, and I'll catch you.”
His fingers were everywhere. His mouth would burn her here and when she regained her hold, he'd be scorching her somewhere else. He'd nip at her hip then her breast. His fingers would slide into her heat and then he'd touch her with his tongue. And always, he was telling her what he felt, how she tasted, how hot her skin was.
It was too much and not enough. She wanted to let go, and she was having a hard time not.
Fear of his rejection, fear of hurting him, but mostly she was afraid of what he'd figure out.
”Dane, let go for me. Let me in, baby. Let me have all of you.” He suckled her c.l.i.t as he f.u.c.ked her with his fingers, two then three of them sliding in and out of her. She was riding his face and his hand, so close that she was aching for it. Then he slid his finger into her tight hole, slid into her a.s.s, and she lost the hold.
His love poured into her, over her, and through her. His touches became more, more heat, more love, more everything. She knew the moment he felt it, the moment that she was feeling him. His smile was like the sun coming out on a cloudy day.
”James, I love you. Please, I need you. I love you.”
When he sat up, she whimpered, thinking he was leaving her. He moved to the edge of the bed and looked down at her. Then he stood and removed his boxers. Her mouth watered at the sight of him. His c.o.c.k was long and thick, the head dark in his need. Reaching up, she smoothed her thumb over the tip to catch the drop of c.u.m there. Taking it to her mouth, she moaned at the taste. It was salty and hot, just like the man. Sitting up, she wrapped her fingers around him and licked him. His hiss had her pulling back.
”I would love to feel you take me into your mouth, but I want to be inside of you in the worst way. Later, later you can have my body and do whatever you want, but now, I want to come inside of you.”
