Jace grabbed her by the legs and laid her on the bed. "Why are you always apologizing for the way you feel? You never have to do that with me. I'm not like the men that come into your club making you feel inadequate about yourself. You never have to apologize to me for anything. Especially, how you truly feel. I see you put up a wall in order not to get close with men. All men are not your father. It's not every man's intention to break your heart. I would never do that to you." He hovered over her face and then gently kissed her neck.
"I wasn't apologizing for the way I feel. I was apologizing for not being able to please you the way you want."
There was a brief pause before he spoke. "Is that what you think? You weren't pleasing me? I told you to stop because I was enjoying it a little too much. I didn't want to come too soon."
A smile splayed across her face. All her fears about having sex with him dissipated. There was no question in her mind that this was exactly what she wanted to do.
Jace devoured her mouth feverishly as his hands slipped inside her stretchy black pants. His fingers glided across her satin black panties. I liquid pool of desire began to form in the apex of her thighs. She pulled down her pants then threw them on the floor.
Kelly drew him closer to her bringing his mouth to her ready aching nipple. He took her breast in his mouth. Licking, sucking and teasing the hardened nub. "Yes Jace."
He smiled at her coyly. "Oh, you like that do you?"
"Yes Jace. I want more."
"Oh, I plan to give you a lot more." He clasped her dainty underwear between his teeth and pulled them off. His fingers kneaded her swollen nub while she writhed against the bed linens.
He continued his sublime torture on her senses. He rubbed her wet pussy faster until she was sure she could take no more. He stopped touching her leaving her feeling disappointed.
Jace bit her nipple gently sending tingles throughout her body. "I want to taste you. I want to taste your very essence on my tongue." He lowered himself down to the foot of the bed. He jutted his tongue right into her pussy. A long slow stroke with his tongue between her folds and she was ready to come apart.
Her hands found his closely shaven head. She'd always liked a man with hair, but the sensation of rubbing it while he stroked her with his tongue was phenomenal. "Yes Jace. More. Please give me more." She bucked her hips back and forth which gave her even more pleasure.
Jace sucked her clit as he drove his finger into her tight pussy. "Is this what you want?"
She threw her head back and begged for more. “Yes! More. Give me more."
He sucked her juice off his fingers. "Mmm. You taste so good." He then plunged two fingers inside her this time over and over. Harder and harder. "Oh yes! Jace!"
"You like this right baby? You like to be fucked with my fingers don't you? Tell me."
"Oh God yes! Fuck me harder with your fingers."
He continued the sweet torture with his mouth. He delved his fingers in and out of her while he teased her with his tongue. "Come Kelly. Come for me. I want you to come apart in my mouth."
"I'm gonna come."
"Yeah baby, come. Say my name when you come."
He drove his fingers into her hard for the last time as waves of pleasure flowed through her body. "Yes Jace!"
Jace hovered over her and glided his hand over her slippery core and licked his hand. "You taste so good."
Just watching him do that single action was enough to send her in a frenzy of need. "Jace, I want you inside me."
He placed his hard cock at the apex of her thighs. He entered Kelly with one hard stroke and she screamed out in pain as he pushed passed her hymen. He was big. Much too big for her. She squeezed her eyes shut and held him tight against her as he was about to pull himself out.
When she opened her eyes his facial expression was one of horror. "Why didn't you tell me you were a virgin? Dammit Kelly, I could have been easier with you."
"I was afraid you wouldn't want to be with me because of it."
"Well, you're right. I’m not the kind of man who you'd want to give your most precious gift too."
Kelly took Jace's face in her hands and looked in those beautiful crystal blue eyes of his. "Jace, you're exactly the kind of man I’ve been waiting for. A loving, trusting man with a good heart."
"I wish I could be a better man for you. I wish I were able to give you the life you really deserve."
"You already have. You have been my protector for so long. I know you wouldn't hurt me and I can see you're a man of your word. I couldn't ask for more than honesty in a man."
"Kelly, I promise I will never hurt you." Jace gently kissed her on the lips.
Kelly moved her hips a little urging him to continue where they had left off. "I want you Jace. Give me what I need."
Jace stroked her slowly and gently until her tight walls became stretched enough for it to be more pleasurable. The pain and burning subsiding a little at a time. His rhythm got faster and faster.
She moved her hips with his but she wanted to feel more of him inside her. "Jace, push harder. Deeper."
He paused for a minute to look at her. "Kelly this is your first time. We shouldn't."
"Jace please. I need more."
Jace sat up and pulled her onto his lap.
Kelly laughed and Jace gave her a quizzical look. "What's so funny?"
"This is how we first officially met."
"Kelly, that's not funny. I said I was sorry, it was an accident."
"Yeah, it wasn’t funny at the time, but it is now right?"
Jace shook his head no.
"No? Maybe it's just my warped sense of humor then."
"You know you're crazy."
"Yeah. Crazy for you." Kelly knelt and placed her legs on each side of him.
Jace guided her gently onto his rock hard cock. "Fuck Kelly, you feel so good. You're so tight. I don't know how much longer how much longer I can hold on."
Kelly gave him a wicked smile and began moving her hips to a song only she could here. She rocked back and forth until he was inside of her all the way to the hilt. She wanted to make him feel as good as he did her.
He grabbed her ass and drove himself deeper and deeper into her tight cunt. "Fuck, I'm gonna come."
Kelly wanted to tease him the way he had done to her so she took his cock out of her and she rubbed her pussy against him. He drove his drove his dick into her hard one time and she pulled herself off of him again. She rubbed against him once more. The hungry look in his eyes proved he wasn't going to take much more.
Jace lifted her onto him and pushed through her tight walls. He wrapped her legs around him and behind her back. He placed his hands on her shoulders and began to thrust himself inside of her. Harder and harder. Faster and faster. His frantic pace sent Kelly careening towards another orgasm. She threw her head back in ecstasy. "Oh yes!"
"Fuck Kelly I'm gonna cum."
"I want to taste you when you come Jace."
Jace pulled her off him and brought her mouth onto his cock. "Suck my dick until I come. Fuck yeah. Suck it hard."
Kelly sucked his cock into her mouth in one slow stroke all the way down the length of him, then stopped. She messaged the hot, smooth column of flesh between her fingers then began licking the swollen head. Her lips tightly encircled his throbbing manhood while her tongue explored very inch of him. She wrapped one hand around him while the other cupped his balls.
She moved her hand up and down from base to tip along with her mouth. She was making sure to get every last drop of moisture and was making slurping noises which seemed to excite him more.
"Fuck Kelly. I can't hold on anymore. I'm gonna come. Open your mouth for me. I wanna see it hit your tongue." He took over pleasuring himself and Kelly was so turned on by watching him do it that she came again. "Oh yeah Jace, that’s fucking hot."
"You like that? You like to watch me jerk myself off don't you?"
"Yes. Come for me Jace. Come for now."
"Fuc
k yeah, I'm coming Kelly. Open your mouth. Fuck!"
Kelly loved the sensation of his warm seed hitting her tongue. She placed her mouth over him and sucked him until his orgasm subsided.
Chapter Ten
Jace awoke to the stream of sunlight hitting his face through a crack in the window boards. Kelly's long soft trusses splayed across his chest. Her peaceful breath tickling his bare skin. He placed her head on the pillow and ran his fingers through her hair. It was soft and smelled like vanilla.
He didn't want to get up out of bed. He wanted to lie next to her forever. There has never been a woman in his life that pulled at his heartstrings the way she can. She was caring and sincere. Something that he wasn't used to being around.
The reality of what happened between them hit him hard. He suddenly felt sick to his stomach as guilt began eating away at his stomach. He slowly got out of bed so he wouldn’t wake Kelly and walked to the bathroom. The door to the office where Lance sat dead in the leather chair behind the desk was ajar. He peered inside and quickly closed the door. Wait, I could have sworn the door was locked last night.
Jace reached into his pocket and pulled out the skeleton key to lock the door. The bathroom was well lit in the daytime. It was one of the few windows in the house that wasn't bordered up. He closed the door gently so it wouldn't echo through the quiet hallway. He didn't want to wake Kelly. He couldn't face her. He was ashamed of himself. How could he deflower such a beautiful creature? She put her trust in him and he took advantage of her.
Jace reached for the pliers in the sink and smiled. In his mind he pictured Kelly and the first time she had been honest with him about trusting men. It gave him a satisfaction he hadn't felt before. To be appreciated by someone he had feelings for was important to him. Sadly, this was the only time a person, other than his mother and brother, had made him feel good about himself.
He didn’t want to lose Kelly, but it would be in her best interest if they never saw each other again when the contest was over. After washing up he returned to their room to find Kelly sitting up in the bed with a broad gleaming smile across her face. She was glowing and he had been the cause of her happiness. He had never seen her look as beautiful as she did right now, but he couldn't go on pretending that it would work out between them.
"Hi stranger." Kelly's voice was raspy and she never stopped smiling at him.
He walked over to the foot of the bed and grabbed his pants. He sat in the chair by the window to put them on along with his socks and shoes. Never saying a word to her.
"Jace, is something wrong?"
He tied the laces on his sneakers and still didn't make eye contact with her.
"Jace, look at me. What's wrong?"
He peered at her through the corner of his eye and her face was so sullen. Her beautiful smile diminished into the sad expression she wore now. "Nothing is wrong. I'm going to see if there's a ladder or something in the basement to get Amber down.
Kelly placed her feet on the floor and picked up her bra and t-shirt to get dressed. "Wait, let me help you. We can go together."
"No!"
Kelly jumped back and was visibly frightened.
"Just stay here in the room and lock the door behind me."
Kelly pulled on her underwear and stretch pants and chased after him holding the door open as he was about to close it. "What's going on? What's wrong with you? Why are you acting like this?"
“I’m not acting. This is the real me. If you can't deal with it, then leave me alone."
"You weren't asking me to leave you alone last night."
Jace faced her with the same cold stare he had given her the day they met at the bus depot. Maybe then she would understand why they couldn't be together. "Last night was a mistake. A lapse in my better judgment. It will never happen again."
He attempted to walk away, but she pulled him back into the room, closed the door, and slammed him against the wall. "Don't play that macho bullshit with me. Now, what's really going on?"
“I already told you. Last night was a mistake. You were just another notch on my bed post, nothing more."
A single tear fell from Kelly's eye. She lifted her arm and swung her hand slapping him in the face. "Go to hell!"
Jace rubbed his face where a red welt was starting to form. He didn't want to hurt her like that, but it was necessary to say the things he did so she would leave him alone. He made his way down the hallway and paused at the top of the staircase. He looked at Amber dangling by her neck and wondered how in the hell he was going to get her down. Each board creaked under his heavy frame as he descended one stair at a time.
Before heading to the basement he wanted to check on Scott and get an explanation from him. When he got to the bottom of the staircase he noticed the door to the study was ajar. That fucking little shit!" He swung the door open hitting the wall and making a hole in the sheetrock. "Scott!" Where the fuck are you?!"
The front door opened and the sound of footsteps followed. Jace turned and saw Alec Sanders standing in the hallway right under Amber. "Mr. Dalton, you know you really shouldn't shout."
*********
Kelly opened the door and ran towards the staircase. She was so angry she had totally forgotten about Amber hanging from the chandelier. The idea of passing under her to get to the living room gave her chills. One step at a time she made it into the main room and sat on the orange lounge chair in the corner. Beams of sunlight coming through the boarded windows filled the large room making it easy to see and get around.
She heard Jace's footsteps walking along the hardwood floor on the second floor, then on the stairs. She was not going to let him get the best of her. Crying in front of him was already showing her weakness. She wasn't going to do it again. There was a small piece of her that knew he was lying. You just don't fake those kind of moments. Or maybe he was such a master manipulator that she would have believed anything he said in all her vulnerability.
No. There was something he was hiding from her. Although he said it was a lapse in his better judgment, his eyes had told a different story.
Kelly heard Jace yell from the main hallway and jumped up in the chair. She ran across the living and into Alec Sanders. The unexpected surprise caused her to scream.
"What is all the fuss about?" Sanders began walking towards Kelly.
Kelly backed up with each step he took toward her. "What do you mean what's all the fuss about? Do you not see the body dangling over your head?"
"Why yes I do."
"Well, what the fuck are you going to do about it?"
"What would you like me to do about it?"
Kelly was furious. How could this not bother him and why didn't he care when millions of people were watching them on national television. "I would like for you to get some help for us. There are more people dead in this house. Now, get her down!"
Alec sauntered over to the wall near the doorway like he didn't have a care in the world. "I can do that for you. Let's see..." He reached up, pulled a thick rope with a large gold colored tassel on the end of it and yanked it down. "How's this?"
Amber's body plummeted to the ground and the chandelier crashed on top of her. Shattered crystals bounced all over the floor. Kelly covered her ears and screamed. Jace came running practically tackling Alec like a linebacker at a football game. His forearm was pressed to Sanders neck. "Are you fucking crazy?! That was a human being!"
Alec struggled to break free. "Get your fucking hands off me or you'll be sorry." He managed to slither out of Jace's hold. He reached into his suit jacket and pulled out a gun. He pointed it at Jace then at Kelly. "The two of you get back or I'll kill you both."
Kelly held up her hands. "Wait, what are you doing? You can just shoot us and get away with it." She pointed to the camera in the living room. "Have you forgotten there are millions of people watching you right now?"
Alec moved towards them slowly. His laugh sinister. "You mean the cameras that aren't on."
"What do you
mean they aren't on? You mean they never worked in the first place?" Kelly wasn't able to process what he was saying quickly enough.
"Oh no, they were broadcasting just fine until after dark. The audience even had a chance to see Mr. Dalton threaten Mr. Smith. You, Ms. Sloane were caught on tape arguing with Mr. Smith as well. You see when all was quiet I cut the cable lines outside the house. So, from then on, there was no video recording of anything that went on in this house."
Kelly glared at the producer. "So, you're saying there is no way of knowing who killed the people in this house. Is that what you're telling me?"
"This house is haunted Ms. Sloane. I thought I had made that quite clear to everyone before you signed up for the show. There are many supernatural phenomena that take place here." His sly smile gave Kelly chills up her spine. "These people were a case of unfortunate circumstances."
Kelly noticed Jace inching toward Sanders as she was trying to keep him occupied with more questions. "I don't believe you. There is no such thing as ghosts. Now tell us what us going on here!"
Alec saw how close Jace was to him and pointed the gun in his direction. "Move one more step and I will shoot you." He faced Kelly. "Okay, Ms. Sloane you got me."
A pair of footsteps tapped against the against the hardwood floor. The sound came from the kitchen and got closer and closer until Scott rounded the corner.
Sanders continued speaking making his way to stand next to Scott. "You see Ms. Sloane, in this world there are some, let's just say, less desirable people in this world and these people need to be taken care of accordingly. Take Flame here for example. He spends his days selling drugs, hurting, and killing others. And you, you Ms. Sloane pleasure married men when they should be home spending time with their families." His eyes became beady. His voice laced with anger. "How does it feel to fuck a married man knowing his wife and children are home waiting for his return? What kind of woman are you?"
Kelly lunged at Sanders, but he raised the gun to her head. "I don't have sex with married men. I am a....."
