Beautiful Prey: The Storm Series (12 page)

Victoria fell into an uneasy sleep and woke up alone. She
looked at the clock on the nightstand. It was twelve twenty-seven in the
afternoon, and she had to be at work at two. Victoria couldn’t believe that
she’d slept so late, and she was sure that Jack was already at work. She pulled
back the comforter and rose from the bed, thanking God that it was Friday.

Victoria padded over to the bathroom. She noticed her wild
hair in the mirror as she made her way to the toilet. Victoria did her
business, washed her hands, and brushed her teeth. She threw on her robe that
was hanging on the back of the bathroom door and made her way downstairs
because she desperately needed coffee. Before Victoria reached the bottom of the
stairs, she noticed that there were four racks of clothing in the living room.
She slowly approached the racks and rummaged through the designer garments.
Victoria ran her hand along the luxurious fabric of a white evening gown
designed by Versace and could barely catch her breath. She looked toward the
floor-to-ceiling window, and there were shoe boxes stacked as high as the
beautiful Chicago skyline. Victoria ran to her purse that was still on the bar
from last night and pulled out her phone.

She dialed Jack’s number and, when he answered, she asked,
“Jack, what have you done? This is too much.”

“Good afternoon, beautiful,” he responded in a very sultry
voice.

“You didn’t have to do this,” she whispered into the phone.

“Yeah, I know. But I’m rich, baby, and you deserve the
best.”

Victoria didn’t argue because she agreed with Jack. He
was
rich and she
did
deserve the best. She’d put her life on the line everyday for
years for thirty dollars an hour to make at least one part of the world a safer
place. Still it was her responsibility to provide the best for herself, not
Jack’s.

“Vic, are you there?”

“I’m here,” she answered.

“When can you take some vacation time? I want to take you
away.”

She thought about how wonderful it would be to get away with
him and answered, “I might be able to take off next Thursday through Sunday.”

“Perfect. Oh yeah. I almost forgot. My parents have invited
us to dinner Sunday night. They’re celebrating their anniversary. Will you
come?”

Victoria could hear uncertainty in Jack’s voice. It wasn’t
like Jack to be unsure of anything. Victoria knew that he was worried because
the last time that she’d had dinner with his parents it ended in disaster.

“Of course I’ll come. Your parents are great,” Victoria said
with excitement because she wanted to ease Jack’s discomfort.

“Ok great. I
gotta
go. I’m walking
into a meeting.” Victoria heard relief in Jack’s voice.

“Ok. Later, baby.”

She ended the call and hurried into the kitchen to make coffee.
She was definitely going to be late, but she could care less.

Chapter 17

 
STORM

 Jack
entered his private elevator and loosened his tie. It was Monday, and it had been
a long day of meetings. He actually had to force his workaholic sister to go
home. It was ten-fifteen, and Jack’s plan was to have a drink, a long hot
shower, and Victoria underneath him.

Jack thought back to his weekend with Victoria. Saturday
they’d met Victoria’s friend Tracy and her partner Steve for lunch. Sunday
they’d had a wonderful dinner with his parents and sisters. His mom even
volunteered to help Victoria with the charity concert that she was planning.
Jack just couldn’t seem to get enough of her. He noticed that he instinctively
touched her whenever she was close to him, and he made sure that she was always
close. Friday night Victoria had thanked him repeatedly in the best possible
ways for her new wardrobe. He reminded himself to give Mary a raise.

Jack needed Victoria to be okay with accepting things from
him because he was seriously thinking of asking her to quit her job. If need
be, he’d offer her a position as director of security for Storm Enterprises.
When Jack got the call from John telling him that she was walking out of the
hotel covered in blood, he all but passed out. Although John said that she
appeared to be unharmed, Jack needed to see for himself. And when the elevator
doors opened and he saw Victoria covered in blood, Jack was terrified all over
again. Jack still couldn’t believe that Greg had set Victoria up. If he wasn’t
in jail already, Jack probably would have killed him. He didn’t doubt that
Victoria could take care of herself, but for some odd reason Jack felt as if that
was his job.

Jack was really looking forward to Thursday. He liked the
idea of a relaxing vacation but the truth was that he was happier to be getting
her away from her job. Jack planned on having a talk with her about the police
department when he got home, but he didn’t anticipate working so late. The
conversation would definitely have to wait until tomorrow because when the
doors to the elevator opened, Victoria stood in front of him wearing nothing
but red high heels and very alluring perfume. She was smiling and holding a
glass of what Jack assumed to be whiskey.

“Welcome home, baby.”

Her sexually alluring voice made his cock twitch. Jack
stepped off the elevator and placed his briefcase on the floor. Victoria kissed
him softly on his lips and handed him the glass that she was holding. Jack
quickly downed the whiskey. There was no way that he was going to waste time
sipping the drink with Victoria standing naked in front of him. Victoria took
the glass and walked across the room. She placed the glass on the bar. Jack
admired Victoria’s perfectly round ass and long sculpted legs and made quick
work of getting out of his clothes. He made his way over to her and wrapped his
arms around her waist.

Jack pressed his hard-on against her back, slid his hands up
her body, and massaged her breasts. Victoria released a soft moan when Jack
pinched her nipples. Victoria turned in his arms, slid her fingers through his
hair, and pulled him in for a kiss. Jack gripped her ass and placed his lips to
hers. She slipped her tongue into his mouth and deepened the kiss. Victoria
pulled her hands from his hair and ran them down his body. She closed her
fingers around his hard cock and slowly stroked up and down. Jack reached down
and grabbed her hand. He had to stop Victoria from ending him before he could
get inside of her. He tightened his grip on her ass and lifted her from the
floor. Victoria wrapped her legs around his waist without breaking their kiss.
Jack turned and carried her to the dining room table. He held her close to his
body and, with one hand, pulled out a chair. Jack sat Victoria on the edge of
the table. He removed his lips from hers and kissed down her neck and chest
until he reached her breast. He slowly licked her nipple before pulling it into
his mouth. Victoria moaned, leaned back, and placed her palms to the table to
support her weight. Jack held her breasts together and licked from one nipple
to the next. Victoria’s soft moans were going straight to his cock and Jack had
no confidence in his patience. He wanted desperately to plunge deep inside of
her. He roughly sucked her hard nipple into his mouth while pinching the other
between his fingers.

“Jack, please,” she whimpered.

Jack released her nipple and stood back. He looked down at
Victoria’s beautiful body and back to her gorgeous eyes that were filled with
lust and whispered, “So beautiful.”

Jack pulled the chair back to the table and sat directly in
front of her visibly wet pussy. He could smell her arousal. Her sweet scent
caused his cock to leak. Jack grabbed Victoria’s ass and slid her closer to the
edge of the table. Then he pushed her legs further apart. He used his thumb to
pull back the hood of her clit and slowly licked her pussy until she started to
squirm. Jack sat at his dining room table and thoroughly enjoyed his dessert.
He removed his thumb from her clit and sucked it into his mouth.

“Oh, God, yes,” she sang.

Jack reached up and gently nudged her chest, urging her to
lie down on the table. Jack placed her legs over his shoulders and continued to
feast on her. He inserted two fingers into her pussy and furiously flicked at
her clit with his tongue. Victoria’s moans filled the room, and she began to
pant.

“Oh, baby, you make my pussy feel so good. It feels so
fucking good. Oh, God, baby,” she cooed.

Jack could feel her juices running down his chin, and he
knew she was close. Victoria reached down and grabbed the edge of the table.
She began to push herself into Jack’s fingers and he could feel her legs
shaking on top of his shoulders.

“Yes, baby. Just like that,” she panted.

She furiously rode his fingers while he flicked at her hard
nub. Jack closed his lips around her clit and gently sucked it until she
shattered.

“Baby, I’m
cumming
!
Argh
fuck!” Victoria screamed as her body went limp.

Jack rose from the chair and pushed it back with his foot.
He guided his painfully hard cock inside of her. Her walls were still pulsing
from her orgasm, and the feeling almost made Jack cum. He pushed completely inside
of her and stilled before pulling out. He needed to regain control. After a few
seconds, Jack pulled himself almost completely out before returning his cock to
her wet pussy. He gripped Victoria’s hips and rhythmically pumped his cock into
her pussy. Jack slowed his movement and massaged her insides. She was so tight
that her walls fiercely gripped his cock. Victoria’s whimpers and the squishing
sounds from her wet pussy sent him into
a frenzy
, and
he began to pound furiously into her. Jack leaned forward, placed his palms on
the table and pushed balls deep inside of her. Victoria lifted her ass to give
Jack more access to her pussy. Jack gripped her ass and rocked deeper with each
stroke.

Jack watched Victoria’s beautiful tits bounce uncontrollably
until he couldn’t take the perfect sight anymore and palmed her tits.

“Yes, baby. Fuck me!” She was crying out. “Fuck! Me!”

Jack needed her to cum because he wouldn’t be able to hold
out too out much longer. “Fuck baby!
Argh
! Fuck,
baby! Cum for me, baby,” Jack growled.

He pinched Victoria’s nipples and fucked her until she began
to shake.

“
Argh
,
baby!
Fuck! I’m
cumming
, baby!”

Her pussy convulsed around his cock and sent him flying.
“Shit, Vic! I’m
cumming
with you, baby.”

Jack pushed as deep as he could inside of her and pumped her
full of his seed. He caught himself from collapsing on top of Victoria. Jack
leaned over and rested his palms on the table. He looked down at Victoria
spread out on his table and decided that she was the most beautiful woman that
he’d ever seen. He leaned over, kissed Victoria’s lips, and scooped her off the
table. Jack carried her up the stairs and into his bathroom. He sat her down on
the vanity and started the shower. When the temperature was right, Jack walked
over to Victoria, kneeled down and removed her shoes.

He looked up at her and smiled. “Hi,” he whispered.

She giggled, “Hi.”

* * * *

The next morning, Jack stood fully dressed over Victoria. He
had removed the sheet from her naked body without waking her and stared down at
her beautiful golden skin. Victoria had mentioned a few times that she needed
to return to her apartment, but Jack couldn’t imagine waking up without her
every morning. Not to mention the fact that someone was stalking her. John had
yet to locate her ex, and Jack was losing patience. He came to the realization
that he cared for Victoria, but he wasn’t the settling down type. He needed to
have a conversation with her about what kind of relationship he was willing to
have when they returned from their vacation.

One thing was certain; Jack didn’t intend to lose her.

He covered her body, turned, and left the room. He grabbed
his briefcase and entered his private elevator. He rode the elevator down to
the thirty-fifth floor, where his office was located. When the elevator doors
opened, Mary was standing in front of him holding a cup of coffee.

Jack reached for the cup and smiled. “Good morning, Mary.”

“Good morning, Mr. Storm,” she responded without smiling.

Jack studied her for a few seconds and asked, “What is it,
Mary?”

She gave him a disapproving look and answered, “Miss Miller
is waiting to see you.”

Jack squinted at Mary and asked, “Why?”

“She wouldn’t say. She just said that she needed to see
you.”

Jack rubbed Mary’s shoulder and told her, “I’ll take care of
it. Please push my eight o’clock telephone conference call back ten minutes.”

She nodded. “Yes, Mr. Storm.”

They turned the corner and entered the reception area. When
Caroline spotted Jack, she rose from her seat and slapped on her signature fake
smile. Jack walked past her and entered his office. Caroline quickly followed.
Jack sat behind his desk and studied Caroline as she took a seat opposite him.
He really couldn’t imagine what he ever saw in her. Everything about her was
artificial. She sat there in a club dress that was too tight and showed way too
much cleavage for eight o’clock in the morning.

“What do you want, Caroline?”

When Jack’s voice displayed his lack of patience, Caroline’s
eyes widened as if she was surprised by his tone. “I miss you. I thought I’d
hear from you by now,” she whined.

Jack glared at her like she had three eyes. “Why do you
think you would have heard from me? We’ve gone as far as we’re ever going to go
and I have no need to ever...”

“Mr. Storm, Miss Victoria Price is on the line,” Mary
interrupted.

Caroline rolled her eyes and didn’t attempt to hide her
jealousy. Jack laughed on the inside because he knew Mary’s motives behind the
interruption. “Put her through.”

“Excuse me, Caroline. I have to take this.” The phone rang
and he picked up the receiver. “Good morning, Victoria,” he said unable to hold
back his smile.

“Why didn’t you wake me?”

“I got up early and I thought I’d let you get a little more
sleep since you were up so late last night.”

She yawned and responded, “Well, I missed waking up with
you.”

Jack smiled again and asked, “Why don’t you stop by the
office on your way out and give me a goodbye kiss?”

“You won’t be too busy?”

Caroline shifted in her seat. She was clearly irritated.

“I’m never too busy to get a kiss from my baby,” he
answered.

She yawned again and responded. “Okay. I’ll see you in about
an hour. I don’t have to be at work until eleven.”

“Okay. See you in a minute, babe.”

Jack ended the call and returned his attention to Caroline.
“Where was I?”

Jack was still pissed off about the stunt she had pulled at
his parent’s dinner party.

“It seems that you still have jungle fever. I’d thought
you’d be done playing with your little monkey by now.” There was pure venom in
her voice.

Jack narrowed his eyes and tilted his head. He was trying to
figure out if he’d imagined Caroline saying something so ignorant. He smiled
and buzzed Mary.

“Yes, Mr. Storm?”

“Mary, please have security come and remove this bitch from
my building,” he requested in a very calm voice.

“Yes, sir.
Right away.”
Jack could tell by Mary’s voice that she was
all too happy to have Caroline thrown out.

Jack looked at Caroline with contempt. “You will never be
half the woman that Victoria is, and the only reason that I’m not throwing you
out myself is because I never want to touch you again.”

Caroline jumped to her feet. Anger and jealously poured from
her. “Fuck you and your nigger!”

Jack leaped from his seat and reached over his desk to grab
her throat just as the security guards walked in. They snatched Caroline by the
arms and dragged her from the office.
