Lady Luck (Lucky You Book 2 1) (9 page)

“That was.....unbelievable. I can't believe I've waited so long to experience a climax.”

“Hey now. I'm happy that I was your first and your last. No one else will ever see the look on your face as you succumb to bliss. Only me.”

“Are you sure you aren't a caveman? You sure are possessive.”

‘I only guard what is mine, and darling you are mine now. I don't want anyone else but you. I can't wait to experience the world of sex with you. We've only just begun.”

“What's in store? What am I missing?”

“Well once we make love and we've become pros, I'll introduce you to some other forms of pleasure, that don't require penetration.”

“Hmm....are you talking about BDSM?”

“We may touch on that subject. How do you know about BDSM if you've never had sex?”

“Okay, I may be a prude, who wanted to save herself for some one special," I wink at him "but I'm not dumb. I've read a lot of books and the Internet is also helpful."

“Oh really, so you already know about submission and bondage.”

“Yes, and I'm very intrigued. I may be your perfect candidate to experiment on.”

“Why is that?”

“Because I may show my confidence around others, I don’t submit to anyone willing to bring me down. However I'm willing to submit to you, I'm willing to give up all my control to you.”

“What? That's not what I was expecting to you say. I know you’re strong willed and determined. I would never hurt you or bring you down. That is not what my intentions would be. For you it would be the pleasure in giving you, for me it's your control that fuels my desire. I'm not experienced and I wouldn't expect you to do anything you weren't willing to do, but it could be a hell of a lot fun.”

“I'm willing but only after I've experienced everything vanilla. I want every position, every possible surface, and when I'm ready we'll revisit.”

“What's vanilla mean? Like I could lick vanilla ice cream from your body?”

“No. It just means regular sex. Not BDSM style.” Ha-ha. I laugh at him. “But ice cream could be fun. I love ice cream!”

“I want you anyway I can have you.”

I snuggle into his chest, my body curled around his. He covers us up, with the blanket after I erupt in chills.

Our view from here is magical. I look up at the starry night sky, the full moon hanging over the waterline. It's peaceful, hearing what nature intended. This whole date has been nothing short of a dream.

‘I could spend forever right here.” He says.

“What about food and visiting the john?”

“Well I won't need to visit the john if I don't eat. All I need is you.”

“Hmm.. I couldn't live without ice cream. Speaking of, do you think the kitchen would have some? I kind of want to experiment now with you and my frozen dessert.”

“Let's go check.” He springs from the bed, grabbing me from underneath and carrying me bridal style to the galley.

Upon entering he sets me down in the island and opens the freezer door. We both look on to see three gallons of blue bell.

“Hell yes!”

“What's flavors do they have?”

“Vanilla your favorite, strawberry and chocolate chip cookie dough.”

“I'll take a scoop of each.” The vanilla is what I want to eat off of him the rest is for me.

“Hey Jere would you ever want to take a trip down to the blue bell factory with me? I've always wanted to go.”

“Of course we can plan a trip in a few weeks once the house is more in order.”

“It'll be awhile until it's more in order babe. Give me six months to help you. Jax and I built his house in a few months; yours is going to need more work. I'm sorry hunny bear.”

“Hunny bear? I'm going to laugh if you start calling me Pooh bear.”

“I'll reserve that one for rainy day. It's cute.”

‘I thought I was a strong beastly bear. With sharp fangs and grizzly claws.”

“But you have a heart of pooh bear and that's what I love about you.”

‘How did we start off hating each other so much?’

“You hated me Jeremiah?”

“I hated that attitude you gave me that first time we met. You got me angry, and so frustrated and Cam only added fuel to the fire. Y'all did not meet eye to eye. She really hated you, more so than me. She didn't want me to be friends with your brother because of you.”

“That doesn't sound fair. I'm glad she's gone. I would have never been here. Us. We wouldn't be here. So her leaving was the best thing that has ever happened to me.”

“Me too. Sexy lady. I approve of your nakedness while helping with the house. I could get used to you walking around like this all the time. Your body..., in every curve, every crevice, every single inch of you, you're beautiful. And the way you talk about my heart, the heart I've been so scared to give away. You say that you will hold my heart with yours. You prove to me you're just as beautiful on the inside. You think of others first, you always willing to help even if it puts you out. You just...amaze me . This date, this night has changed me. You've changed me. Remember me telling you I wasn't ready to take the leap and give my heart away. Well. I did it! I gave it to you, and I never want it back. You can trust me with your own. I need you Lady.”

“Good cause I'm giving you all of me. Including my heart Jeremiah. I trust you to hold onto it.”

“Oh my Addie. I promise I won't break your heart. I could never walk away from you. I know what it feels like to have some you love turn their back on you. What I have learned it that I never truly loved her. She filled a space in my heart for most of my life but she didn't make my heart beat. She didn't own it, she merely leased it until the rightful owner could take her claim. You Addie. You own my heart. I love you. I love you so much more than I ever thought I could love someone.’

“I love you too Jere bear.”

Chapter 10

Addie

"Did you have fun this weekend Addison?" My mother asks me as she enters the room. I'm in the kitchen making muffins for Jeremiah and I to share this week. I promised more muffins; because he inhaled the others I left last week.

"Yeah we rented a boat on Lake Travis and oh mom, it was magical. I really like him."

"It's good to see you this way, you’re all lit up. My babies are growing up and falling in love, who knows I could be a grandma again soon."

She nudges my arm and winks at me with a devious smile.

"Don't get any ideas mom. We just had our first date, hold off on the wedding plans."

"You don’t need to get married to have a baby, but I'm glad I raised you right, you make me so proud."

"Aw mom, thank you, I love you."

"I love you too baby. I just want to see you happy."

"I am, for once in my life I'm feeling truly blessed with what I've been given. It took a hard road to walk across but I'm finally finding what I've put on the earth for." I turn to face her, as I'm reaching for the fresh blueberry and strawberry mixture. She has tears in her eyes.

"What? What's wrong?"

"Nothing. I'm just happy that you're happy. There's no greater joy than to see your babies happy and content in life. You've had many struggles and yet you're stronger than those that have brought you down. I'm proud to see the woman you've become through it all."

"Oh momma, please stop, you're gonna make me cry."

"Ok so tell me about Jeremiah. What's he like?"

"He's funny, oh man he made me laugh so hard. He's smart and kind of a geek; he's a graphics and web designer. He's completely clueless when it comes to repairing his house but lucky for him he's got me. He's also a sweetheart, I'd like to call him a teddy bear, I actually gave him a nickname, Jere bear."

"He sounds amazing, I can't wait to meet him."

"I can't believe you haven't yet. I really think you'll love him. We keep each other on our toes. At first I thought he hated me, and actually he thought he hated me too, but underneath it all, we're severely attracted to each other."

"So he's allowing you to design and remodel the house?"

"Yeah, can you believe he bet me a date and I bet him the full authority over the redo on the house? Lucky for me I know how to play cards, so yeah I won."

"So you went out with him anyway?"

"Yeah, I'd never been asked before, it was the second time he'd insinuated about taking me out. So I plainly asked if he'd still like to take me out and he agreed."

I'm so glad I grew a pair and went with my gut. "He's kinda perfect for me."

"I can see it. So when can I meet him?"

"I'm headed over there after these are done, we could stop by the store later for a few things."

"That's not what I was thinking. How about dinner at Jax’s sometime soon?"

"Okay fine, but we do need some things from the store, we should be by after noon. So you'll finally meet him, invite him to dinner, he'll love it that you asked."

"Oh Addie I'm so happy for you. I hope for good things to happen between the two of you. Whatever he's done, to make you so lit up, well I approve. I know you spent the night with him, so I won't be a nosy mom, but I only hope they you know what you're doing, I'm here and you have Jessa, if you need someone to talk to. Guys are sometimes hard to play with, and I don't have much experience but I know you may have questions-"

"Mom, we're good, I do know what I'm doing and yes this is all new to me, I trust him. He knows this is all new to me too, I told him I'm a Virgin. He's kind and gentle and when the time comes I'll let you know. We did other stuff, had some fun with ice cream, showered and slept. We talked a lot about different stuff from music, to childhood cartoons, to favorite movies and even video games. I learned so much about him. It's weird I feel like we've known each other for years, not months."

"I don't want to jump the gun, but I do believe you're on you're way to falling hard for him. Oh honey don't be scared if you trust your gut and you trust him, then I'd say you're golden."

"Momma, don't get too far ahead of yourself, it was a magical first date. Let's see how the rest will go."

"Oh believe me, you'll be in love soon, working side by side with him. I already see it happening."

Last weekend was beyond what I ever imagined it would be. We began the date awkwardly, and as it progressed we grew so comfortable with each other. When I decided to let go and just feel my way through it all, I found myself so in tune with him. Our bodies have a way of communicating the words we aren't able to say, at least at first. Once I decided to open up and tell him straight up what it was I'm feeling, we just meshed. It didn't feel like what a first date should be, and maybe it's because we had already formed a friendship, I could be wrong, it was my first and only, first date, I have nothing to compare it to.

It was easy to follow his lead, and his blossoming ideas of vanilla ice cream and early morning fishing trips. How could I not fall in love with him?

Wait, what? Falling in love? Where did that idea come from?

Oh shit, its true though. I’m falling in love with him, Shit!

Chapter 12

Jeremiah

The week after our first date I find that I cannot stop thinking about her. I keep making up ideas for ways I could see her.

I could fake an issue at the house? Or ask for help with Charlie?

I caved this morning, I know its only been two days but I decided to text her, I asked her what her plans were for Wednesday night, but I don’t want to make her feel like she’s trapped, or that she is obligated to go out with me.

She tells me she will be watching the twins so Jax and Jessa get a date night out. I casually invite myself, saying she may need some help.

Once they go to sleep, I can get her undivided attention; I need some Addie time myself. We can enjoy our own date night in after they head to bed. I need her softness and sweetness.

Just thinking about what I did to her the other night sends my dick into overdrive. The sights and sounds of her beneath me, the way her body moved and reacted to each of my touches. I’m not sure I can wait much longer to make her mine.

At the end of our date night in, after making a midnight round to change diapers we end up sprawled on the couch. I know it’s late, and Jax and Jessa could walk in the door at any minute. I wouldn’t dare chance it. Instead I reach for her face, calling out her name with softness and longing.

“Addie?” I caress her cheeks, and when she looks up at me, smiling with that warmness I feel inside my soul. I realize I cannot live another day without nailing down my next chance to see her.

“Can I see you tomorrow? I know you’re off because Jax said the store is closed. So can we do something together?”
