“Please,” she whispered. “More.”
One finger sank into her tight channel. He forced it in and out then teased circles around her clit.
Mandy squirmed, wild with desire. Bucking her hips as much as she could, she revelled in the tingling sensations encompassing her.
Nick tweaked her nipple with his free hand. “I want you to come before I fuck you. I think it’ll be easier if you’re more relaxed.”
The crude language sent a thrill to her core. “Kiss me!” She raised her face to meet his. Opening her mouth, she sucked his tongue in naturally, like she’d done it a million times. When he groaned, she ravaged his mouth hungrily.
He thrust his finger deeper. Adding a second digit, Nick worked them in and out of her drenched pussy.
Mandy gasped for breath as the first waves soared through her. She tossed her head back against the seat, crying out as pleasure like she’d never known took hold.
“Come on,” he murmured, fucking her with his fingers. “That’s my beautiful girl. God, you’re sexy when you come.”
She relaxed, looking at him timidly. She thought it’d be awkward to meet his gaze after what she’d just experienced, but it was just the opposite. The look of lust and desire on his face sent her reeling. “More.” She thrust against his hand. “That was—indescribable. I want more.”
“Insatiable.” He grinned, removing his fingers. With slightly trembling hands, he rolled the latex condom over his erect shaft then lubricated the sheathed tip with her juices. “I don’t know how much this is going to hurt.”
‘Try me.”
He shifted slightly for better position.
Mandy’s legs fell open, beckoning him in as his cock nudged her pussy.
“I’ll take it slow.” He pressed forwards an inch at a time.
Heat and a searing pain shot through her, and Mandy groaned.
“Want me to stop?” he asked hurriedly.
“No! Keep going. Kiss me and keep going.”
Nick pressed his lips on hers and they kissed. He drove forwards, kissing her deeper, the more she opened her mouth to gasp. “Stop?” he finally asked, nearly panting himself.
“You said this was going to feel good, right?” She squeezed her eyes shut to hold back tears.
“I promise you it will. We just have to get through this first time.” His hand brushed hair from her face.
“Then do it. Kiss me and do it. I’m ready for the good part.”
“Okay.” He cupped her breast again, pinching a nipple as his cock drove deep.
She focused on the pain in her breast, realising how closely it was intermixed with pleasure. Before she knew it, she forced her tit towards him, aching for more.
“Yes!” He lifted the breast high, sucking the puckering nipple into his mouth.
Mandy felt warmth and a sort of numbness, but no more pain. She desperately wanted another orgasm. Right on the edge, she was close…so close. “Oh god, oh god! Fuck me harder! Make me come!”
Nick growled, and the car rocked as he pounded her. Sucking her tit into an elongated cone, he pinched the other nipple savagely.
She heard a low, keening wail in the distance. It took her several minutes to realise the sound came from her as she experienced the most magical moment of her life. Tears sprang to Mandy’s eyes, and she buried her face in his neck.
“Are you all right?” he whispered in her ear. “I’m so sorry if I hurt you.”
She shook her head vigorously. “It was perfect. I’d never imagined—would have never believed—” She couldn’t finish the thought. There were no words.
“It was perfect.” He kissed her temple. “You were beautiful and sexual—a god damned tigress! I wouldn’t have imagined that either.”
Mandy looked into his eyes. “Was it okay? For you, I mean?”
He smiled, cupping her face with one hand. “Are you serious? I’ve never come so hard in my life. Couldn’t you feel it?”
She grinned. “I couldn’t feel anything except heat and a fuzzy, fabulous sensation. I can’t explain.”
“You don’t have to.” He kissed her temple again, murmuring in her ear, “The heat was me, emptying into you. Damn, that was amazing.”
“I’m so glad.” She held him tight.
“Are you? Are you sure? No regrets?”
“Well…” she shifted as much as she could under him, “I think I’m going to be a little sore. But once that’s passed—can we do it again?”
He laughed, holding the rim of the condom as he pulled out. “Fuck, yeah, baby. Let’s give you a chance to recover and then we’ll do it right. Rent a motel room for the weekend, maybe. I’ll show you what it can really be like.”
Mandy smiled. “If it’s any better than that, I might explode.”
“Yes, I think you will. Several times.” He wadded the full condom into a tissue and chucked it into a small waste can. “Uh oh. Looks like you’re bleeding a little bit.”
“I am?” She glanced down, surprised.
“I think that’s normal for the first time.” He handed her more tissue, rolling back into his own seat.
Mandy cleaned herself the best she could, raised her seat, and they both dressed. She discarded the tissue and smiled at him. “Sorry about that. Hope your car seat is okay.”
He squeezed her hand, starting up his car. “It’s just fine. I’m more concerned about you.”
“I am perfect.” She let her head rest against the tall seat. “I’ve never felt better.”
“Good.” He flicked on the heater and headed back to her dorm.
In the parking lot, they kissed a while longer until Mandy knew she needed to go. She pulled away reluctantly. “I’ve still got to study.”
“What subject?” He leaned in for another kiss. “I can help you.”
“Tolstoy,” she replied, their lips pressed together.
“Forget it.” Nick pulled back. “I hated Tolstoy.”
She sighed and grinned. “I’m not very happy with him myself right now.” She glanced around and was startled to see the old white car from the drive-in parked near them. “Nick, look!”
“What?” He reached across her to wipe the fog off the inside of the window. “You’ve got me all steamed up.”
“Tell me,” Mandy snickered. “That car. Isn’t that the man from the restaurant who watched us?”
“Was he watching us?” Nick questioned, trying to see out. “What’s he doing now?”
“Watching us.”
He made a face at Mandy and focused on the man. “It is the same guy.”
“I told you, he’s watching us!”
“Seems to be.”
“What are we going to do about it?”
“Well.” He turned to her. “If you go inside and I leave, he won’t be able to watch us any more.”
Mandy rubbed her hands over her arms. “I don’t like it. Why is he following us?”
Glancing out the window one last time, he shrugged. “I don’t know, but he looks harmless enough. Forget about it.”
“Forget it?” She gave him an incredulous look.
Nick sighed. “What do you want me to do, Mandy?”
“Confront him. Ask him if he’s following us.”
“And if he pulls out a gun and sticks it in my face?”
Mandy shrugged. “Then we’ll know…and we’ll run!”
He laughed and kissed her quickly one last time. “Okay, we have to walk past him to get inside anyway. I suppose it wouldn’t hurt to check him out.”
“Thank you.” She smiled at him, and they got out of the car. Wrapping her jacket around her tightly, they approached the man sitting in his car.
Nick made a motion for him to roll down his window, and he obliged.
“Hello,” Nick said calmly.
“Hello,” the stranger replied.
Mandy stared at him. His hair was grey but looked like it had once been dark. His face was lined but handsome. The deep brown eyes he watched her with
reminded her of someone familiar. “Do I know you?”
“Don’t believe so,” he replied.
“We saw you earlier at the restaurant, and now you’re here,” Nick said. “You’re making my girl a little nervous, friend.”
“Didn’t mean to do that,” he replied matter-of-factly. “Trying to decide if I was going to approach you or not. You two have been rather occupied.”
Mandy felt herself blush.
Nick’s voice rose a notch in anger. “Why would you approach us? Tell us what you’re doing here or I may have to phone the campus police.”
The man held his hands up. “No need for that. I come in peace.” He looked into Mandy’s eyes. “My name is Jake Kenny.”
The name startled her. “No way.” But as she said the words, she realised he spoke the truth. She recognised where she’d seen those eyes before. He was an older version of her Uncle Doug.
Pulling out a Kansas driver’s license, he held it up for her to read. Jake Kenny. She’d heard stories about him from the time she was a child. Some of them were funny, some of them sad. But the story she heard most often was how he walked out on his wife and their two children, Sarah and Doug.
“You know this guy?” Nick looked at her.
Mandy gulped and glanced from Nick back to the older man’s face. “I think so,” she replied. “I think he’s my grandfather.”
Chapter Four
“You think he’s your grandfather?” Nick looked at Mandy. “Sweetheart, I’ve got three grandfathers and I guarantee you, I know what each of them looks like.”
“Mandy’s never seen me before,” Jake said, looking into her eyes. “Rather a long story.”
“What are you doing here?” she asked him. “How did you find me?”
“I’ve always known where you were. I’ve kept tabs on your mother and your uncle all these years.”
“But you never tried to contact them.”
“That’s where we get into the long story. I tried for a while, but your grandmother kept me away.”
“Grandma wouldn’t do that!” Mandy cried. “She was a wonderful person!”
Jake nodded. “She was. You’ll get no argument from me there.”
“Then why—” Mandy began.
Jake shook his head. “Now’s not the time to get into all that.”
“But why are you here?” Nick spoke up. “It seems like you should be looking up your daughter or son rather than your granddaughter.”
“I approached them a few years ago. Sarah was willing to meet with me, but Doug was angry—very angry. He wouldn’t consider it. So Sarah backed out.”
“I don’t remember that,” Mandy insisted.
Jake shrugged. “They probably didn’t tell you. You were young.”
“I can’t believe they didn’t tell me,” she said softly, then looked at Jake. “Lots of things have changed since then.”
His face softened into a smile. “Oh my, I know. There are tricycles and toys all over both of their yards now. You have a little half-brother.”
“A brother,” she corrected, because they never used the word ‘half’. “And two cousins.”
“Doug must be very proud.”
“He is. I’m guessing he’s still angry, though.”
“That’s what I wanted to talk to you about.” He coughed loudly and clutched his chest for a moment. “Perhaps we could get a cup of coffee and discuss it.”
“I can’t,” Mandy insisted. She felt disloyal talking to him and wanted to get her mother’s take on things.
He raised one hand. “I understand this comes as a shock to you. If you could meet with me tomorrow, that would be soon enough. All I ask is that you don’t phone Sarah before you and I have a chance to speak. It’s really important. I wouldn’t ask you if it weren’t.”
“I don’t know.”
“Please.” The older man reached out through his car window and touched her hand.
Mandy drew back from him and looked at Nick. “Will you go with me?”
“Of course. What time?”
She turned back to her grandfather. “I’m out of class by four.” Glancing at Nick, who nodded, she continued, “There’s a coffee shop a block over on Tenth Avenue. It’s called Shorty’s.”
Jake nodded. “I’ve seen it. I’ll meet you both there tomorrow at four.”
“Okay,” Mandy agreed and tugged Nick’s hand towards the dorm.
Once they were in the elevator, she slipped into his arms. “I can’t believe this!”
“It’s pretty wild,” he agreed. “Are you sure you want me there?”
She looked up at him fearfully. “I wouldn’t meet him without you! I don’t know the man.”
“You don’t think you should call your mom tonight?”
“I’d like to, but I told him I’d wait until we talked. I can do that much. If need be, I’ll call her tomorrow night.” They strolled down the hall to her room.
Nick pressed Mandy up against the wall next to her door, shoving his knee between her thighs. “So, are you going to be able to concentrate on Tolstoy?”
“Probably not.” She slipped her arms around his neck.
“Want me to stay so we can make out some more?” He kissed her lightly.
“Oh yeah.” She deepened the kiss, and it lingered. She finally pulled away and murmured, “But you’ve gotta go.”
“I know.” Another kiss. “Don’t want to though.”
“I know,” she repeated and gave him a long kiss goodbye. “I’ll wait for you out front tomorrow.”
“I’ll be here about ten to four.” He left with a wistful smile.
Mandy hugged her arms and watched him go. Even now, with thoughts of her family and grandfather running through her mind, her body still tingled for Nick. She’d already made one decision. Tomorrow she’d visit the campus clinic and ask about birth control. She wanted more sex with Nick—lots, lots more.
* * * *
The nurse practitioner at the clinic was very helpful, and Mandy left laden with pamphlets and a birth control patch. Once they’d determined she had no problems with the hormones, there was a shot she could take which would be simpler.
It was nearly four when she arrived back at her dorm. Spotting Nick’s car, she hurried over to him and opened the door. “I’m sorry. I got held up.”
He smiled at her and reached for her backpack, shoving it in the rear seat. “Did they get anything valuable?”
“What?” Mandy settled in and fastened her seat belt.
Nick leaned over for a kiss. “Whoever held you up. Hope they didn’t get anything valuable.”
She grinned and shoved his arm. “You’re a real comedian, aren’t you? Let’s go. I want to get this over with.”
He pulled out of the parking lot. “Ready to meet with your grandpa?”
“Not so sure about that. I can’t imagine what he’d want with me.”
“I hate to ask this, but could he want money? He didn’t appear that well off.”
She snorted. “Oh, and I do? He’s barking up the wrong tree there. My folks have enough to get by, but not much more than that. Especially now, with Ty.”
Nick cleared his throat. “You know, if you need money, I could always—”
“I don’t think its money,” she interrupted. “But thank you.”
Shrugging, he added, “Just wanted to make the offer.”
“Thanks.” She looked around the parking lot of Shorty’s Coffee Shop as they pulled in. “I hope he’s here.”
“I’m sure he will be.” Nick got out and went around the car, opening her door.
“Thank you.” Mandy smiled at him as she got out.
“Don’t look at me that way,” he grumbled. “You look so damn cute, I want to shove you back in the car and climb in on top of you.”
She glanced over her shoulder at him as she headed for the restaurant. “You’re out of luck, buddy. I’m still spotting, and my tits have stung like fire all day.”
“
Sorry.” He smiled sheepishly.
“Don’t be. You’ll be the first to know when I’m ready to do it again. I’m thinking it’ll be soon.”
He grinned and opened the front door of the coffee shop for her.
Mandy stepped inside, glancing around for Jake Kenny. She spotted him in a corner booth and said to Nick, “There he is.”
Nick nodded and placed one hand on the small of her back. “Let’s go.”
They approached him, and Mandy looked at her grandfather hesitantly.
“Hello.” He smiled at her and then Nick, and waved a hand. “Have a seat.”
“Thanks.” Mandy slid in and Nick followed.
A waitress appeared and asked, “What can I get for you?”
“Coffee with sweetener,” Nick spoke up, glancing at Mandy. She nodded and he turned to the waitress. “Make that two, please.”
“That it?”
“For now,” Nick replied, looking back at Jake. “You need anything? Food, more coffee?”
Jake covered his cup with his hand. “Nothing, thanks.”
The waitress nodded and stepped away.
Jake smiled sheepishly. “I’ve been here awhile. Had plenty of coffee.”
Mandy looked at him with a steely gaze. “Well, I don’t have that much time. So perhaps we should get to the point.”
Jake returned her even stare with one of his own. “Straightforward, eh? I like that. Okay Amanda, I can be straightforward too.” He continued to look at her. “I’m dying. Lung cancer. The doctor says I may have six months to a year. I feel pretty good right now and was hoping to tie up some loose ends before I’m not mobile anymore.”
Her jaw dropped open, and Mandy looked from Jake to Nick and back. The waitress brought their coffee, and no one spoke as she set everything on the table.
“Thanks,” Mandy told her and stirred sweetener into her cup. She couldn’t look at her grandfather yet. She was quite prepared to hate him. She wasn’t prepared for this.
“When did you find out?” Nick asked quietly.
“Couple of months ago. Been going through a lot of introspection since they told me about the placement of the tumour and how they can’t operate on it. Brings a man’s life into perspective, I can tell you that.”
