Forever Rain (Rain Will Fall Trilogy #1) (15 page)

“No. I have my car here and I will not be getting into a vehicle with you…” Before I could finish my train of thought, Jordan took the keys out of my hand and gave it to another guy that exited the front seat of the limo.

“I swear to God, I will kick you in the shin if you don’t get out of my way. I mean it, Jordan.” My heart was racing, as I could only imagine what being in a limo with Jordan would lead to.

“If that will make you feel better, then give it your best shot, but we will be talking tonight. Now, we can discuss us here, or you can go with me. As you can see, we have quite an audience.” Not that Jordan was worried about the audience. He seemed to be enjoying the tiff as much as those observing it. I got into the vehicle and slid all the way to the other side. Jordan got in and stretched his long legs out as the limo pulled away.

“So, Robert gave you the easy way out and now you’re mad at me,” said Jordan.

“I am mad at you for totally different reasons, as you are so well aware,” I huffed in my corner of the limo.

“It’s time that we cleared the air and talk about us. I’ve waited 10 years. Ten years for you to come to the conclusion that I did nothing with Celia. Ten fucking years for you to listen to the truth from me,” he said.

I turned my head and looked out the window.

Jordan slid closer to me and grasped my chin. “By God, you will look at me and listen to what I have to say.”

“Fine. Say your peace, or more like lies, then leave me the hell alone.” I stared back at him.

“Celia showed up at my place banging on my door at 4 a.m. She was drunk and crying. She said she was having an affair with a married man and he gave her the boot that night. Obviously, she said she had a thing for me, but I always kept our relationship strictly business. She knew she would not get anywhere in my bed nor get me in hers. Needless to say, she was pissed. I was going to call her a cab, but felt that if someone took advantage of her in her state, I would obviously feel responsible. I offered her the bed and I slept on the sofa in my home office.

“She was asleep on the bed when I went in to take a shower. I was going to play golf with some friends that morning. I did not know of her state of undress, nor that she had on one of my T-shirts. As much as she would like for you to think so, I swear to you, Zoe, nothing ever happened between Celia and me. The next day I transferred her to another department. A few months later, she was fired. I don’t know why and I don’t care.”

Chapter 14

Oh God. Could it be true? Had I put us through this much agony for the past 10 years due to being hard-headed?
Maybe it was the wine, or that I was just ready to listen and come to another conclusion. I shook my head slowly as the tears came. Unstoppable.

I wanted to believe Jordan. He’d tried time and again to prove his innocence to me and stayed in contact with my life despite my total disregard for his efforts. I lunged myself into him catching him off balance. He caught me easily and held me to his chest while I sobbed and molded myself further in his embrace. I wasn’t aware of much more than crying and feeling sad for the lost time in our lives. Time we could never get back.

The limo came to a stop and Jordan picked up my purse from the floor where it fell. I looked through the car window and saw that we are at my townhouse. Gently, he dislodged me from his chest and opened the door, took me by the hand, and led me inside.

Jordan sank into the living room sofa pulling me on his lap again. This is my new favorite place to be. It revived memories that brought tears to my eyes again.

“Somewhere in all this mess, I always knew there was an explanation for what happened between us, Jordan. I should have listened to what you had to say, hear you out, but I bolted. I suppose things have a way of working out, and maybe this is no different.” I leaned back in his arms and gazed in his eyes.

His hands were running over my body, caressing me, pausing briefly only to feather light kisses on my face and neck.

“Thank you for listening to my side and trusting your heart. It has been a long 10 years, Zoe, but you are worth the wait. I know what you saw hurt you, but I was hurting as well. Knowing that you thought I betrayed you. It was killing me. I had to leave Austin. I always thought I would leave, for a few years anyway, since most of my business was with Asian and European investors, but I wanted to wait until you were through with college.”

His sincere words touched me. I could see the pain in his eyes as he spoke.

I slid my arms around his neck, running my hands through his dark blond hair.

He closed his eyes and leaned his head back as my hands explored his neck and face.

I kissed his neck sucking lightly on his skin.

Letting out a soft groan, his eyes were half-lidded as he looked at me. “God, baby, you’re killing me. I want you. I want to make love to you, Zoe.”

“Yes.”

As if waiting on that one word from me, that word that told him I was ready to move forward, Jordan picked me up in his arms, and like a treasure, held me easily into his body. He made his way to the master bedroom and stood me by the bed.

With shaky hands I started to unbutton my silk blouse, but Jordan stopped me.

“Let me do this, babe. I have thought of this moment so many times.” He slowly unbuttoned my top pulling it out of my pencil skirt. He unzipped the skirt and let it fall to the floor. He took in a sharp breath as I stood before him in pink and black matching lace bra, thongs and three-inch Vince Camuto stilettos. “More beautiful than ever,” he whispered.

I was under his spell, but I didn’t mind. His sexy voice enthralled me sent chills down my spine.

As if unable to wait a moment longer, Jordan quickly unclasped my bra. My breasts spilled out of the size C cups and into his hands. With firm pressure, he rolled my nipples between his fingers as the dusky pink buds puckered.

His head lowered to my breast. He suckled on the areola while his other hand paid homage to the other breast.

I watched, entranced, as he made love to my body like a man starved for days, deprived of food and water.

He pulled his lips off my breast with a light popping sound that left the nipple wet and elongated, begging for more of his attention. Lifting me onto the bed, Jordan quickly pulled at his clothes and threw them wherever on the floor.

My eyes feasted on his huge erection, his cock jutting upward toward his abdomen with the round dark head straining for release. I was unaware that I was worrying my bottom lip between my teeth until I felt Jordan gently rub his thumb across it.

I let it go as his mouth swooped down and claimed mine in a mind-blowing kiss that took my breath away. Pulling away again, he placed both my arms above my head and took off my shoes and thong.

I was trying not to squirm or pull him onto me, as my need to capitulate with his body was a raging inferno now.

Jordan spread my legs and brushed his fingers against my labia, pausing to rub his thumb gently around my clit. Two fingers were at my wet slit and he slowly inserted them.

I heard the faint noise of my moisture as his fingers continued the in and out motion. My pussy clenched as it begged to be taken.

As if not satisfied with feeling the dripping essence of my desire, Jordan put his fingers to his nose and slowly inhaled. My breath caught in my throat as he sucked his fingers into his mouth. He was still standing by the side of the bed, so with little movement, he leaned over and kissed me, making sure I tasted the juices from the center of my core.

The fragrant smell of my pussy was musky and tasted somewhat salty.

Getting on the bed, he knelt between my legs bent my knees up and looked at me.

“You are so fucking beautiful.” His head ducked down between the apex of my thighs. He flicked his tongue from the bottom of my slit to my clit. My body jerked, bringing my ass off the mattress, but his hands were holding onto my thighs.

I was mewling with pleasure; my head tossed from side to side on the pillow.

Jordan swooped down again and did the same thing, only this time he did not stop. His talented tongue delved in my slit, in and out, as he fucked me with his tongue. His mouth clamped down on my pussy and his tongue concentrated on my clit.

“Please, Jordan, please, ah…” My hands went to his head, which was not moving from between my legs. I felt the orgasm bearing down fast on me. Screaming out my pleasure, I erupted in his mouth as he lapped away the juices of my release. My pulse raced and I panted for air, but Jordan did not stop.

His fingers were back in my slick pussy. As his thumb rubbed my clit to a hard knob again, with a swiping motion, he moved his thumb in me to pull residual juices and continued to assault my sex.

Vaguely, I was aware of chanting his name, begging for another orgasm.

“Come now.”

On his command, I shattered, holding on to his shoulders for dear life as I trembled beneath him. My body rejoiced with the reunion of my lover, as my limbs went lax from the rush of orgasmic anticipation and the pleasure of the release.

Jordan crawled up my body, rubbing his steel hard cock on my abdomen and settled beside me. He pulled me into his arms.

“I missed you desperately, sweet lady. I could not stay away any longer. Watching you from afar has been like sweet torture. Get used to me being around, Zoe. I am not going away again, not without you.”

His whispered confession in my ear sent goose bumps across my body. I turned my head into his neck and kissed him all the way up to his mouth. The light kiss turned into a union of tongues and teeth blended with lips. We pulled at each other with frantic hands, reclaiming the pleasure we once had.

“Condom; I need a condom.” Getting off the bed, he located his discarded pants. With expert fingers, he sheathed his gorgeous cock.

With my legs open and bent at the knees, I welcomed his hard warm body into mine.

“Open your eyes. Look at me.”

I did as he said and took in the glorious sight of this gorgeous man about to mount me. I couldn’t wait for his gorgeous cock to slide into me.

“No one else, Zoe. This is mine.” I nodded my head yes, but he was not satisfied with that. “Tell me it is so, babe.”

“Yes, Jordan. It’s only for you.” My breath hitched in my chest as he rubbed his manhood at my entrance, although not penetrating. He leaned on one elbow above me and fisted his cock in the other hand while rubbing on me.

“I don’t want to hurt you, Zoe, but it will since it’s been a long time for you. Let me know if I need to back off some.”

I nodded my head in understanding.

With slow but steady pressure, he pushed into my pussy, pausing only to readjust so he could advance further. There was a moment of fullness and burning as he continued, but I quickly adjusted to his size and wiggled my hips for better position.

Wanting more of his cock in me, I pushed into him with my hips. I pulled in a ragged breath as his length went all the way inside me.

“I’m OK, Jordy. It feels incredible.”

He leaned his forehead against mine and began to move, slow at first, but with sure strokes that was driving me crazy already.

I locked my ankles around his waist and hung on as he picked up the pace and pounded into me. The perspiration on our skin mingled with our whispers and groans of pure pleasure as it built to a crescendo.

“Christ, you feel good. Warm and tight. That’s it, baby. Move with me.”

His words were drawing me closer to the edge.

“I’m close. About to fucking blow this condom to kingdom come.” Jordan panted above me as I screamed his name again for the third time in less than an hour with passion that had been building in me and long overdue.

Shouting out his own pleasure, Jordan slumped on top of me. I licked his neck and shoulder with open mouth kisses. A few moments later, he rolled off and pulled us on our side facing each other. We made the slow descension together from our heightened state of pleasure.

I knew we needed to talk. So much time had passed, it was as if we were strangers, yet we had a history of intimacy. I didn’t want to think about all that tonight. It was too much, and I was totally exhausted. My limbs were heavy and relaxed; slowly our breathing and heartbeats returned to normal.

“Stay where you are. I’ll be right back.” Jordan slipped out of the bed.

Curious about his exploration of my home, but too tired to care, I snuggled deeper in the pillows and welcomed the slight ache between my legs which reminded me that the cobwebs have been blown the fuck away. I smiled at the thought. It was something that Mia had teased me about over the past few years.

Chapter 15

“I miss that smile. What’s it about?” Jordan inquired.

I opened one eye and peeked at him, seeing a tray of food in his hands.

“It’s a silly girl thing.” I told him what Mia said about cobwebs.

“Well you can happily report to her that upon my inspection, your beautiful pussy is cobweb free, since I totally obliterated anything trying to get in my way of claiming that sweet treasure.” His wicked smile lit up his face and I took in his handsome features that were a sight for my sorely deprived eyes.

I giggled at his analogy of my anatomy, all the while gawking at his. He was naked and his cock nestled in short blond curly hair.

“Like what you see, pretty lady?” He winked at me and I could not miss the twitch in his cock that was getting ready for more action.

“Let me replenish your energy. Your refrigerator is stocked with great stuff, by the way. Reminds me of your great eating habits when you were in college, but good to know you still eat a healthy amount of junk food.”

I laughed as he got back on the bed and fed me a sandwich stacked with deli meat and cheese. I took a handful of salt and vinegar potato chips and munched on them.

“So what were you doing at that restaurant tonight?” I asked.

“Darling, the object of my desire and reason for moving to Houston is you. I was not giving Robert another moment with you and I wanted to be there when you told him to take a hike.” He wiped some crumbs from my lips and licked it off his finger.
