“Good girl,” he praised. Airi spread out on the mattress and he secured both of her wrists to the metal headboard. “Spread your legs for me, baby,” he ordered. Airi complied and watched as Jarrod worked his way down her body, securing each of her ankles to the bed posts, effectively spreading her completely open to his every whim. Her core ached for relief and she knew Jarrod would find her pussy drenched with her need for him.
Airi pulled against her restraints needing to move, wanting to watch what Jarrod planned next for her but she already knew. She held her breath in anticipation, only releasing it when Jarrod ran two fingers through her wet folds.
“Airiana,” he breathed. She could feel his warm breath on her pussy and it was nearly her undoing. She moaned out his name just from the anticipation of what he had planned for her. Jarrod was always so creative when it came to making her come. Airi couldn’t wait. He chuckled against her sensitive pussy and licked her throbbing clit. She bucked and pulled against the handcuffs, loving the little bites of pain that was making the pleasure Jarrod was giving her so much better.
“You like that, don’t you, baby?” he asked. “The way the pain makes it all better. You are my kinky girl, aren’t you?” Airi moaned again, not answering his question.
Instead she begged, “Please, Jarrod. I need to come.” She didn’t care if she sounded out of control with need, she was. He was turning her inside out and making her wait was all part of his seductive plan. Turnabout would be fair play and as soon as it was her turn to touch and taste him, she would drive him out of his mind.
“I can’t deny you, sweet girl. I’m going to let you come this time and when you do, I want my name on those sexy lips of yours,” he ordered. Airi nodded and laid her head back, waiting for him to make good on his promise. But she knew better than to doubt him, he always did.
Jarrod licked his way back into her sensitive folds and this time, he didn’t stop until she felt as though she was soaring through space and could actually touch the stars. She came around his greedy mouth and he gently led her back down, kissing and sucking his way up her body. When she finally regained all her senses, Airi realized Jarrod had stripped and was stroking his cock, as if awaiting her attention. She smiled up at him, licking her lips, wanting to taste his cock. Airi patiently waited his instructions, hoping she’d have her chance to drive Jarrod even half as crazy as he had driven her. She liked when Jarrod told her exactly what he wanted from her.
“Tell me what you want, Airiana,” he ordered. She didn’t hide her smile. He knew exactly what she was going to ask for and from the smirk on his gorgeous face, Jarrod was ready and willing to give it to her.
“I want to taste you please, Jarrod.” She pulled at the handcuffs, as if trying to reach for him and cried out in pain. “I need to touch you too, please,” Airi begged. Jarrod’s eyes flared with need and she knew that was exactly what he was hoping she would say. He unlocked her hands from the headboard and removed the cuffs from around her ankles, giving her free access to his body. Usually, Jarrod like to keep her cuffed or tied up when he took her body, this was new for him. Justin liked to have her touch him and usually ordered her to do so but Jarrod didn’t like giving up any of his control while he fucked his way into her body.
“Thank you,” she whispered. “May I touch you, Jarrod?” she waited him out and finally he nodded. She liked how shy Jarrod was making an appearance in bed but this was new territory for her.
“I need for you to touch me, Airiana. Show me you’re my girl,” he ordered. She didn’t hesitate, knowing Jarrod struggled with where he fit between her and Justin. Jarrod held the other half of her heart and he needed to know that.
“I love you, Jarrod,” she said, slipping her arms around his neck. “It’s just you and me right now. Let me love you,” she offered. Jarrod nodded and lifted her body up over his cock, allowing her to slide down his shaft inch by inch. It was almost too much, the feel of him entering her body, the way he maintained eye contact, his hands roaming her sensitive nipples—it was an overload to her senses.
“Fuck, you feel so good, Airiana,” he whispered against her shoulder. When she was fully seated on his cock, he ordered her to move and she did, never taking her eyes off his. It was as if he could see straight into her soul. She knew she was looking directly into the sun but she didn’t care. Airi couldn’t seem to look away.
“Like this?” she questioned, almost sliding completely off his cock. Jarrod moaned her name, telling her she was doing exactly what he liked.
“Yes,” he hissed his response. “Don’t stop, baby. I’m going to come,” he commanded. She rode his shaft, loving the freedom he was giving her to control her every move and in turn, his pending orgasm.
“Do you know how important you are to me, Jarrod?” She looked him directly in the eyes and when he tried to look away from her, she framed his face with her hands caressing his jaw. “Tell me you know how much I love you, Jarrod,” she ordered. She refused to let him hide. Airi held his handsome gaze, riding his cock, until he finally nodded.
“I know, baby,” he admitted. “I see it every time you look at me,” he breathed.
“You hold the other half of my heart, Jarrod,” she cried out, another orgasm ripped through her body but this time, Jarrod followed her over. He pumped deep into her core, holding her hips firmly in his big hands, finally taking what he needed from her.
“Tell me you are mine, Airiana,” he ordered.
She nodded, “I’m yours, Jarrod,” she agreed. “I love you so much.” Jarrod pulled her down onto the bed with him and they laid there for so long, Airi thought he had fallen asleep.
“I love you too, Airiana,” he whispered and pulled her against his body. She was his and Jarrod finally knew it and that was all she needed.
Justin
Justin was exhausted. His trip took an extra day and he was ready to get back to Colorado to meet up with Jarrod and go over every detail of his many business meetings. He was also hoping his brother and Airi would have found time to connect while he was gone.
Justin had called in nightly to check on Airi and Jarrod and once in a while he caught Milo still awake. Although the toddler’s gibberish was hard to understand, he loved hearing his little voice. He knew giving Jarrod time alone with their girl was the best way to help them bond but it was killing him to be away from them all. Honestly, his business could have been done by teleconference but he wouldn’t tell his brother that. He saw that Jarrod was having trouble struggling with his relationship with Airi. There was no way for them to move forward if Jarrod couldn’t form some sort of bond with her. Sure, he knew Jarrod loved Airi but he still saw the jealousy in his brother’s eyes sometimes when Jarrod didn’t think anyone was watching.
After he got out to California, Justin put out one fire after another and he was actually happy he made the trip. Judging from his phone calls, it was successful on all fronts because Jarrod and Airi seemed closer than ever. When he got the chance to talk to Airi alone, she’d gush about her time with Jarrod and Justin had to admit he wasn’t jealous. He was relieved more than anything the two had found their way but he was never jealous.
When he called home last night, Jarrod told him he got a call from Holden, saying they were needed back at the home office. He hated the idea they were possibly taking Airi back into a dangerous situation but they really had no choice. They all knew sooner or later they would have to return to their lives. They couldn’t hide out in Colorado forever, although he was hoping for just a few more days there. He’d love to go fishing again but decided that would have to wait for another trip west.
Holden had also done some digging and although they still didn’t know who was after Airiana, the local authorities assumed it was someone from her past. They were looking into all the foster families Airi had lived with. She submitted a full list, disclosing the names of all her past families. Justin hated how he was possibly exposing her to whatever trouble was tracking her down but she seemed
excited to get back home. Airi said she missed her sister and wanted to get Milo back to his regular routine. Justin had to admit he was looking forward to having Airi and Milo living with him and Jarrod full time. He loved that they would be a part of each other’s daily routine and when they all left to go home in the evening, he wouldn’t have to wonder what Airi was doing every night. Hell, he used to spend most of his nights rock hard thinking about her but now she would be lying beside him in bed. He wondered how he had gotten so lucky but he didn’t like to chance fate. All he knew was Airi belonged to Jarrod and him and that wouldn’t change.
They decided to all meet at the airport to save Justin some traveling time and he was grateful. While the jet refueled, he checked messages, noting he had thirteen missed calls from Holden. He decided to take a few minutes to call him back and didn’t count it as a good sign his friend answered on the first ring.
“It’s about time,” Holden grumbled.
“Well, it’s good to hear from you too, man.” Justin felt he was poking the bear but he didn’t care. It had been a damn long day and it wasn’t over yet.
“Is Airi with you?” Holden asked. Justin stood, knowing that Holden was calling about Airi had him worried.
“No, she’s on her way to the airport now with Jarrod,” he said. “Why, what’s going on?”
“The officer in charge of Cole’s homicide case called Ivy today, asking for Airi. He said they had a lead and wanted to know if the name Jimmy meant anything to Airi.” Justin knew from Holden’s tone he was aware of Airi’s history with Jimmy, which was fine with him since he didn’t want to get into it.
“I know all about that asshole, Holden,” Justin confirmed. “What does he have to do with any of the shit going on with Cole?” he asked.
“Well, it seems this Jimmy guy wasn’t able to let Airi go. They tracked him down and he all but admitted to murdering Cole but then he disappeared,” Holden said.
“What the hell do you mean, he just disappeared?” Justin questioned. “How did the police lose him?”
“I have no idea man but it seems Jimmy just got up and walked out of there and hasn’t been seen or heard from since,” Holden said. “They are looking for him but he’s gone.”
“There’s more, isn’t there?” Justin asked. Holden sighed into the other end of the line. “Just get it all out,” Justin commanded.
“In the interview when they were questioning him, he admitted to being the baby’s father. Airi’s baby—the one she lost.” Holden paused, as if waiting him out.
“Fuck,” Justin swore.
“Yeah, well he said he wanted Airi and his baby but his parents were the ones keeping them apart. He said his father sent Airi away and he lost touch with her but he wants her back and has been looking for Airi all this time,” Holden all but whispered the last part.
“No fucking way,” Justin growled. “There is no fucking way he will ever get his hands on her again. Airi said she was taken out of that home when she told her case worker that Jimmy was forcing himself on her. He’s a fucking liar,” Justin said.
“I know, man. Ivy told Slade and I the whole story. The officer said this guy didn’t seem to have all his faculties about him. He wasn’t playing with a full deck and he’s worried if you bring Airi home, he’ll have his chance to get to her.”
“Jarrod and I will increase security around the office and our home. We won’t let Airi out of our sight. She and Milo will be well protected, you don’t have to worry about that,” Justin offered.
“I believe you, Justin. I just thought you’d like to know what you guys are up against,” Holden said.
“I appreciate it, Holden. I really do. We will be back in town tonight late. I’ll have Airi call Ivy tomorrow to let her know she’s safe.” Justin ended the call just in time to find Airi and Jarrod boarding the plane with Milo in tow. He was going to have to explain his phone call but first he needed to hold his girl and make sure she hadn’t forgotten him. Justin kissed Milo’s little head and pulled Airi against his body, kissing into her mouth. He didn’t let her even catch her breath before wrapping his arms around her, squeezing her tight.
“I missed you so fucking much, honey,” he whispered. Justin nodded to Jarrod and his brother smiled at him.
“What, you didn’t miss me too?” Jarrod teased.
“I did but I think I’ll hold off on your hug and kiss,” Justin said, making Airi giggle. God, he missed her laugh. He missed everything about his girl. Justin sat down and pulled Airi onto his lap; Jarrod and Milo sat down in the seat next to him.
“Who was on the phone?” Airi questioned. She never missed a beat and there would be no hiding the truth from her.
“Holden,” Justin admitted.
“Everything alright back home?” Jarrod asked.
“Well, yes and no,” Justin said. “Everything is fine with your sister and the company is good but Holden called to give us a heads up that the officer in charge of your ex’s murder case might have a lead on who might want to hurt you.” Seeing the frightened look on Airi’s face nearly did him in. Here he didn’t have her back in his arms even five minutes and he had to deliver bad news.
“Who?” she whispered.
“Jimmy,” Justin said. He hated that he sounded so matter of fact but there was no other way. “He was brought in for questioning a couple days ago and basically admitted to everything, including wanting you back. But he got away somehow.” He looked over to Jarrod, noting the murderous look on his brother’s face.
He had to hand it to Jarrod, he kept it together while holding Milo. “How could they just let him walk away?” Jarrod asked. Milo had no clue as to what they were talking about. He continued to play with his favorite stuffed bunny while they all tried to calmly discuss the news Holden delivered.
“Holden wasn’t sure,” Justin said. “He did say they are looking for this Jimmy and warned us if we brought Airi home, she might be in danger.” Airi looked between the two of them and instead of the tears and upset he expected, he saw only her resolve and strength looking back at him.
“I’m done hiding,” Airi said. “While I’ve enjoyed our little trip and staying in your beautiful house here in Colorado, I want to go home. I want to see Ivy and get back to work. Milo needs stability and a schedule and we need to settle into our new routine, living with the two of you.” Justin nodded, knowing she was right.
“Then we go home, honey,” Justin agreed.
“Tell me we’re increasing our security team,” Jarrod questioned.
“Yep, at work and at home. I’ll make the call just before we take off,” Justin said. “And until they can catch this—guy,” he stuttered, making Airi smile. From the amused look on her face, she knew he wanted to call Jimmy an asshole but refrained because she had already given plenty of warnings about their cursing around Milo. He was trying to be a good example around her son but not cursing was turning out to be quite the challenge.
“Until they can catch him, you will be with one of us twenty-four- seven. Got it?” Jarrod finished for him. Airi smiled and nodded.
“You know, you two are really like an old married couple,” she teased. “You even finish each other’s sentences.” She giggled. Justin smushed her against his body and kissed her again.
“I have a few phone calls to make. Why don’t you get Milo settled before we take off?” Justin asked. Airi nodded and stood, taking Milo from Jarrod and heading back to the bedroom at the back of the plane.
She shut the door and Jarrod turned to face him. Justin knew his brother was going to have a ton of questions but they didn’t have time for all of them. So, Jarrod went with the one question that was on both of their minds. “Will we be able to keep her safe, man?” he whispered.
“I have no idea,” Justin admitted. “But I hope to fuck we can.”
Jarrod
Two weeks had flown by in the blink of an eye and Jarrod was sure he had never felt more at peace in his life. It had taken him and Justin a d
amn long time to find the right woman to fit between the two of them but Airiana did perfectly. She and Milo had become his and Justin’s whole life and a few months prior he would have never imagined it to be a possibility.
After the initial shock of the three of them being an item and the circulation of news they were all living together, the office gossip mill seemed to settle down. He and Justin worried Airiana wouldn’t be able to handle some of the nasty comments and stares from some of the other employees but she handled them all like a champ.
Everything was going along almost too perfectly and Jarrod was constantly looking over his shoulder, waiting for the other shoe to drop, so to speak. He hated living that way and hoped that sooner or later this Jimmy asshole would show his hand so they could catch him and put him away. He wanted to be done with watching over their shoulders and he could tell that Airiana and Justin were feeling the same way.
They were keeping such a short leash on Airiana, she was starting to show the effects. She cried all the damn time. If Milo picked a weed out of the grass for her, his girl would break down in tears. Jarrod worried the stress was starting to get to her and he wondered just how much more she would be willing to take. Airiana was also giving him more sass than she used to but he was sure it was an attribute of hers becoming more comfortable around the two of them and not her stress levels on the rise. She was the perfect package—sexy as sin and was fun and witty to boot, really keeping them on their toes. Airiana would never be boring.
She walked into his office and flopped down on the sofa that sat in front of his desk. “Hi,” he said, not bothering to hide his smirk. She was in quite a mood all morning and from the look on her beautiful face, nothing had changed. She blew out her breath, effectively blowing a strand of her blond hair that had escaped her messy bun back from her face, causing him to laugh.
