Ally turned and looked up into Cole face. Her eyes searched his.

“Kiss me Cole,” she pleaded tearfully. “Please, I need you.”

Cole quickly sealed her mouth with his and pressed her body tighter to his.

Suddenly, his kissed deepened and Ally could feel his rock hard length against her hip and desire exploded inside her.

She reached for the buttons on his shirt and made fast work of them pushing his shirt from his strong shoulders.

“Ally, you don’t have to…” he began to protest but she kissed his mouth quickly and stopped him before he could finish.

“I need you,” she said breathlessly against his mouth
.

Cole couldn’t deny
that he wanted her too. He needed them to feel they were okay and this was their way.

He claimed her mouth again a
s he reached for the end of her top and pulled it up her body, breaking their kiss only long enough to pull the top over her head.

As his tongue searched her mouth, he made short work of her bra, opening the clasp that was thankfully in the front. Once it was opened, he quickly dropped h
is mouth to her swollen breast, sucking her nipple into his mouth, making her cry out in pure pleasure as it hardened and puckered between his lips.

His hands went to the hem of her skirt, sliding it slowly up her body until he reached the rim of her black lace panties. He pulled them hard until
he heard the rip and he quickly disposed of them on to the floor. He slid his legs in-between Ally’s as he pushed his trousers down freeing is hard cock.

He pressed his slick head against her opening and with on single t
hrust, he buried himself deep inside her.

“OH GOD!” S
he cried out as he pulled back and slammed into her again.

“I fucking love you Ally Thomas,
” he growled against her neck as he pushed into her once again.

His paced quickened as he drove
deeper and deeper into her, each time making her cry out with sheer pleasure.

He wrapped his arms tightly around her and rolled
her over in the bed until she was now on top of him. Once she was above him, he reached for the button and zipper on the side of her skirt and unfastened it. Then he lifted it up her body, over her head and dropped it to the floor too.

He brought his eyes back to meet Ally
’s as he took hold of her hips, pulling her down harder onto him. She dropped her hands to his bare chest and began to slowly grind into him, her eyes locked with his.

“That’s it my gorgeous girl,” he growl as he tilted his hips up again and again to meet her every trust.

She rode him hard, her breathing becoming laboured and faster, a thin layer of sweat covering both their bodies.

“OH COLE YES! YES!” Ally cried out as she
ground into him harder and faster. “OH GOD YES!”

He sat up in the bed so he was face to face
with her and wrapped his arms around her, holding her so tightly they were almost one.

Ally continued to rock back and forth on top of Cole a
s he claimed her mouth with his.

She could feel the quiver begin in the pit of her
stomach as it begin to work its way out to every single part of her body.

She pinched her eyes shut as the sensation became too much. Finally
, throwing her head back as her orgasm tore through her body.

“YES! YES! YES!” S
he cried out as she came apart above Cole.

“I am not finished with you yet,” h
e growled against her mouth as he kissed her once again before he held her to him and rolled them back over.

But this time instead of slipping back between her legs, he rolled to the side and then rolled Ally on to her stomach then kneeled behind her.

He pushed her legs up one at a time until she was on her two knees and elbows.

He positioned the now throbbing head of his cock against her opening once more and slid it deep inside her.

He took hold of her by the hips and began to thrust inside her hard and fast, sending her body in to turmoil once again.

“OH FUCK YES!” Cole cried out and he knew he was ready to erupt inside Ally.

Ally pushed back against Cole, taking him deeper inside her each time.

“OH ALLY, I AM GOING TO COME!” H
e cried as he gripped her hips harder.

“Come for me baby,” she cried a
s she could feel her body come apart once again.

Cole slammed into her once mor
e and exploded inside her, emptied himself into her before they both slumped down on the bed breathless, sweating and still entwined in each other’s bodies.

“I love you Cole,” Ally finally managed to say breathlessly.

“I love you more, my gorgeous girl.” Cole replied as he held her tighter to him as he possibly could.

They both drifted off to
sleep, each one completely exhausted and completely sated.

Cole woke with a jolt in the small hours of the morning in a cold sweat. He dream
t Ally was missing. He could hear her crying and begging him to help her but he couldn’t find her anywhere. Then he was standing at a big black door, banging on it harder and harder to be let inside but he couldn’t get through it.

Suddenly
, he heard a loud, shrill scream followed by a loud bang and silence. It was then he woke, his heart racing rapidly in his chest.

He turned over and found Ally sleeping peacefully next time him and relief washed over him.

He snuggled closer to her and closed his eyes. But the sense of dread and fear he had inside him just wouldn’t seem to go.

He need
ed to deal with this Jason situation as soon as possible. He needed to know his gorgeous girl, his Ally, was safe and Jason was no longer a threat to her.

He finally drifted off to sleep but it was a restless night he spent, waking again just check
ing Ally was still beside him and still safe.

Chapter 19

Ally was on edge for the next few days. She found she was looking for any excuse not to leave the house. But she knew she couldn’t hide forever.

On the
Sunday after their visit to Nan and Pop’s, Cole convinced her to join him and Ben to go for a walk to the park to feed the ducks.

She was nervous as they walked side by side pushing the buggy in the lovely s
pring sunshine through the park. She found herself checking over her shoulder on more than one occasion. She couldn’t seem to relax.

By the time they reached the part of the park that had the duck pond
, Ally was completely stressed out and anxious.

“Relax,” Cole said
, taking her in his arms and holding her close to him. “I am with you, I promise you I will not let anything happen to you. Please, don’t let him win.”

“I won’t,” she said and smiled. She knew she needed to calm down. She had no reason to belie
ve Jason was even anywhere around. She just felt like she was being watched, but she knew it was probably all in her head.

Cole undid Ben’s straps and lifted him from his buggy
as Ally pulled out the bag of bread from beneath Ben’s buggy they had brought with them.

Then they walked down to the edge of
the pond and turned Ben around so he could see the ducks.

After about
ten minutes, Ben became a little cranky.

“Maybe we should just head home,” Cole suggested
still worried Ally was stressed out.

“Not yet,” Ally replied. She was just starting to relax and enjoy herself and she didn’t want to go home just yet. “I will get his little elephant and see
if it will calm him down.

Ally hurried back to where they had left the buggy and peered in but couldn’t see the elephant. She pulled back the blanket but still couldn’t find it. She searched through the
nappy bag but with no luck. She thought for a moment. She remembered picking it up before they had left the house and she could have sworn she had put it into the buggy next to Ben.

She then crouch
ed down to search in the basket under the buggy but it was nowhere to be found.

“Ally,” a voice from behind her made her jump with fright. She quickly turned to see
who it was when she lost her balance and landed on her backside.

“Jesus, Ally,” Nathan said as he helped her up from the ground. “I am so sorry I didn’t mean to startle you. I called to the house and Rosie said you guys
went for a walk down here, so instead of waiting I decided to follow you.”

Ally brushed herself
off as she regained her composure.

“Are you okay?” Nathan asked once again. “Did you hurt yourself?”

“No, I’m fine, I’m fine,” Ally insisted with a laugh as she tried to make light of what had happened, but she knew she was blushing.

“Ally, sweetheart,” Cole said,
the panic clear in his voice as he suddenly appeared beside her and Nathan. “Are you okay? Are you hurt? We should have you checked out.”

“I’
m fine, honestly,” Ally insisted once again. “Please calm down.”

She turned to Ben, who was still crying
, took him from Cole’s arms and cradled him against her shoulder.


We should get him home,” Ally said, as she settled Ben back into his buggy, despite his protests. “We seemed to have walked off without his elephant. I could have sworn I put it in the buggy next to him but I can’t seem to find it anywhere.”

“Maybe we dropped it on the way?” Cole suggested.

“No, I remember putting it in beside him,” Ally replied. “I don’t know how it would have fallen out.”

“Maybe it’s at home
,” Cole replied.

“I
really could have sworn I put it in,” Ally sighed. “Damn, this pregnancy brain. I have become so forgetful lately.”

The three of them
retraced their journey all the way home but they didn’t come across the elephant anywhere. Nor did they find it at the house.

Ally couldn’t for t
he life of her think where she could have left it.

She changed Ben
, then fed him and settled him in his baby chair and left him with Cole and Nathan watching Rugby while she excused herself and headed up to soak in the bath.

She didn’t want to admit it to Cole but she had hurt her bottom when she fell on the ground. A good soak was just what she needed.

As Ally lay in the bath, she laughed to herself when she thought of how ridiculous she had been earlier that day. She couldn’t shake the feeling she was being watched but she realised she was just being silly. She needed to stop letting Jason get to her and stop letting him ruin her life. Ally decided from now on she was going to get on with her life as she should. No more hiding out in the house.

 
When she woke up the next morning, Ally decided her and Ben were going to go do a little shopping.

When Cole set off for
his office, she jumped into the shower and got herself ready before she went to get Ben ready for a day out shopping.

When she got down to the kitchen,
Ally found Rosie baking up a storm and Nick sitting at the table drinking a cup of coffee. He was on his feet the moment he saw Ally walking through the kitchen door with Ben in her arms.

“Good morning Ally,” Nick said as he straightened his tie and jacket. “Mr. Thomas mentioned you are planning a shopping trip. Just give me five minutes to get everything sorted and we can head off whenever you are ready.”

“Thanks Nick,” Ally replied with a smile. “I am just gonna grab a cup of tea and a slice of toast then we are good to go.”

“I will be in the car whenever you are ready,” Nick said
with a smile as he placed his empty mug down on the counter and headed for the door.

“Glad to see you
getting out and about,” Rosie said as she sat a cup of tea down in front of Ally and turned back to get the toast from the toaster that had just popped up. “Being cooped up in this house too much is not good for you.”

When she sat the toast down next to the tea, she took Ben from Ally so she could have her breakfast.

Ally lifted her tea and toast from the counter, moved to one of the chairs at the table and sat down. Rosie sat down next to her still cuddling a happy Ben babbling up at her.

“I figured I can’t keep hiding away in here forever,” Ally said as she took a sip of her tea.

“No you can’t,” Rosie agreed. “You can’t let that useless excuse for a man ruin your life any longer. You have done nothing wrong so why should you be prisoner in your own home because of him.”

“Exactly,” Ally replied a
s she drained her tea and stood up. She hurried out into the hall to grab her coat and her bag then back into the kitchen to collect Ben. She kissed Rosie on the cheek before she headed out to Nick and the awaiting car.
