Irritation swells in my chest, and I clench my jaw. “Fuck, no.”
His tone softens. “Jackson?—”
“He’s not,” Ethan cuts him off with a shake of his head. “What happened was an isolated incident. Ricky messed with the wrong person.”
That’s one way of putting it.

What a fucking day.From seeing our baby, making out, sharing secrets, arguing, finding out Ricky is an undercover agent, Jackson snapping, to lifelong promises…this is life with Jax and Aurora.
And I’ve never felt more alive.
In my arms in Jackson’s bed, Aurora gazes out the floor-to-ceiling windows at the moonlight over the rough waters.
Full of pent-up emotion, I tuck a strand of hair behind her ear and whisper, “You’re the moon and all the stars in my sky, you know that?”
Of course, Jax can’t stay quiet. “If you’rehismoon and stars, you’remysun and universe,” he says, approaching the bed after walking Doc out.
“The universe includes the sun, idiot. Way to ruin my moment.”
With that damn smug smirk playing on his lips, he drops his phone on the bedside table and crawls into bed on the other side of Aurora. The electric blinds close, and complete darkness engulfs the room.
Bedding rustles, and she’s pulled from my arms. He wastes no time getting positioned between her legs.
“Jax,” she chides halfheartedly.
“I just wanna taste,” he says, his deceiving words muffled by the covers.
He’s insane.Thisis insane. Still, I find myself capturing her lips in a messy kiss.
“Jesus, baby, you always taste so fucking good,” he mutters from between her thighs.
I’m conflicted—my cautious brain battles with my hard dick.
Why do I crave this so much? I shouldn’t enjoy another man being with the woman I want.
Her moans fill my mouth and erase all argument. Every whimper and hitched breath he forces from her sends a wave of raw desire through me.
I press my teeth into her bottom lip to ease some of the ache. “I hate this in the worst way.”
But I don’t hate it. I should, but I don’t, because I’vefallenfor her in the worst way.
God-fucking-damn-it, I love her. I’d do anything for her—forthem.
I can’t imagine being with anyone different. It’s unfathomable.
They’ve ruined me. No one else could evoke this desperate craving inside me.
I pinch her nipples and swallow her moans elicited by my captain, and she strokes my cock as if she’s begging for it.
On a sharp cry, her lips leave mine, and her hand releases me, presumably to grasp Jackson’s hair.
He always knows how to get her attention. Fucker.
I kneel beside her pillow, drag my sweats below my ass, and, refusing to be ignored, grab her chin. Before she screams his name, I have my cock stuffed in her mouth. “Suck.”
