CHAPTER FIVE

Iris

Our trip to the vineyard turned into another, and soon we were hanging out whatever chance we got.

My days were free without work and Jace didn’t hesitate to find us things to do.

Over the next few days, we spent a lot of time together.

From visiting two different vineyards, to joining our grandma’s book club meeting, and having dinner with each of them, I’d never had so much fun before.

Jace was unlike anyone I’d ever met before.

He was so kind and caring, his love for his Nan shining bright, along with his passion for his business.

He talked about the process of applesauce making for almost an hour one evening over dinner and how he loved finding new ways to improve and expand the product.

On the outside, his brawny tough look could give someone the wrong impression. But his ooey gooey insides could melt the coldest of hearts. Like mine. Defrosting more and more as the minutes passed.

All of my coldness had been replaced by Jace’s warmth, and I found myself laughing and carefree, in one of the best moods of my life.

Jace took my hand in his as we exited Emily’s apartment building together.

She invited us over for dinner and cooked us a feast of roasted chicken, potatoes, and mixed veggies.

Emily had begged to meet him before he headed back home, and I finally gave in.

She also insisted this happy, chipper version of myself couldn’t possibly be real.

Hell, I didn’t think it was real.

But he was leaving in just a few, short days.

Something I kept pretending wasn’t happening.

I didn’t want him to leave. I liked who I was when he was around.

“Emily is a trip. Were you really that grumpy before I came along?”

I grimaced, a small laugh escaping my throat. “No, Emily loves to overexaggerate.”

“Well, I kind of remember the first time we met…maybe she’s not overexaggerating as much as you think.” Jace smirked.

“Yeah, yeah.” I muttered and Jace laughed.

“Doesn’t matter to me. I think you’re a peach.”

“A peach, huh?”

“Yep. I mean, I have spent most of my vacation with you. But I wouldn’t change a thing.” Jace smiled as we strolled down the street on the way back to my place.

I wanted to ask him to spend the night, to spend the last of his days in bed with me, but the words wouldn’t form and the few that did lodged themselves in my chest. I cleared my throat and attempted again. “I don’t want you to leave, Jace.” I whispered.

He stopped in place and turned to face me. His eyes searched mine and the depth of his feelings sent my heart into chaotic leaps. “I don’t want to, either.”

His words filled me with courage. It was as if the world around us melted away, leaving only us two. “Spend the night with me.” I whispered, putting myself out there in a way I never had before.

When he didn’t say anything, panic flooded my veins. I’m an idiot. I never should’ve said anything. What am I thinking?

But then he wrapped his arms around me and hugged me close. “I thought you’d never ask.”

When we arrived back at my apartment, I poured us each a glass of wine and settled down on the couch next Jace. But the last thing I was able to do was pay attention to the TV. Not with Jace’s heat beside me, an all-consuming fire I couldn’t ignore any longer.

“Penny for your thoughts?” His deep voice rumbled, and I squeezed my legs together. I couldn’t reveal my dirty thoughts, the way I imagined his mouth would feel between my legs, or the image of him tossing me around the bedroom, bending my body like a pretzel.

“Or maybe I can show you what I think you might be thinking about…” Jace said and before I could even contemplate his words, he’d taken my wine glass and set it down on the table.

He pulled me into his lap and didn’t once try to hide his full erection straining at the seams of his jeans.

“It kinda seems like we have the same idea.”

His adorable face and calming demeanor put me at ease, along with the fact that he felt exactly the same.

Piece by piece, we undressed each other, our eyes never breaking contact and when I took him in in all his full naked glory, I gasped, his body like something straight out of a magazine. My hands deftly explored every inch of his hot skin, his own fingers grazing over my skin.

Suddenly, without warning, Jace got to his feet and took me with him, lifting my naked body into his arms. He carried me to my bedroom and laid me down in the middle of my bed, not bothering with the light switch.

With only just mouth and tongue, he worked his way from my toes to my head, climbing on top of me, as he pressed his hard, dripping cock into my thigh. My hands immediately found his throbbing dick, stroking and teasing and rubbing his precum all over the head, desperate for a taste.

With a loud groan, Jace swept me into a mind-altering kiss, his hands now caressing my breasts, his fingers squeezing my hard nipples.

Leaving me wanting more, he broke the kiss and moved downwards again, stopping to leave a trace kiss on each breast before settling between my legs. His tongue went right to the sweet spot of my clit, and I cried out loud when he latched on, sucking hard on the sensitive little nub.

My hands pulled at his hair, and I thrusted my hips, grinding my wet pussy all over his face, soaking his beard with my juices.

Jace didn’t stop, his licking and sucking becoming more intense until he slid a finger inside and I was done for.

My orgasm crashed through me hard like a powerful tsunami, my legs shaking as I fell apart beneath him.

Jace lifted his head and smiled, his face and beard glistening. “That’s right, you sexy woman you. Cum all over my face.” Then he dove back in and didn’t stop until I came again and again.

And again.

All night long.
