Saving Sky

by Natasha L. Black

  “I don’t think I’m hungry for pasta anymore,” I whispered.

  “Me either,” he nodded. He put his hands to my waist, and I jumped up, wrapping my legs around him. I kissed him as he carried me back to his bedroom and laid me on his bed. I was so eager for him, I could hardly contain myself. I pulled at his shirt, letting it fall to the floor.

  He was clearly aroused, needing me with the same carnal lust I had. He pulled his pants off and was on top of me in a second, his hands all over me, my hands all over him. We kissed and licked and nipped at one another, each eager to taste the other’s flesh.

  He ran his hand over my pussy, and I closed my eyes, arching my back and letting him pleasure me with his thumb. I expected him to push into me as he had done before, but Jack was full of surprises. With a grin, he flipped me over on the bed, exposing my ass to him.

  With a light slap to my right ass cheek, he sent a thrill through my body, and I cried out in pleasure. He eased himself down over me, his dick pressing into me from behind. He put his hand over mine, intertwining his fingers through my own.

  There wasn’t any need for asking this time. It was clear what we both wanted. Jack pushed his cock into me. I was so wet and ready for him, and he was rock hard for me. I moaned, pressing my ass back into him as he took me from behind.

  I loved how deep he got but I wanted him deeper still. I slid myself back on my knees, practically sitting on him as he pounded into me. In and out, in and out. I was so wet, the movement was swift and powerful. Thrust after thrust he drove into me, and I moaned, taking him and letting him pull out again.

  I spread my legs and dropped my chest, taking him even deeper. I was so close to climax, I felt on top of the world. It was hard to breath it felt so good, and I nearly screamed with pleasure as he tugged on my hair.

  “Say my name,” he said. “I want to hear you say my name.”

  I was gasping, breathing in light, shallow breaths. He made me feel better than anyone else in the world ever had. Each thrust took me closer to coming, and when it finally happened, I screamed out his name at the top of my lungs.

  “Oh God, Jack! I’m coming, I’m coming!” I said. He moved his hands from my hair to my waist, holding me still as he pounded into me a few more times.

  “Fuck Susie, me too,” he gasped. His voice was low and gravelly, turning me on even more. I felt his cock buck inside me as he emptied himself fully into me. Sitting back, I took him as deeply as I could, smiling with pleasure.

  Jack held himself inside me for a moment as we both caught our breaths. Finally, once we’d stopped panting, he slipped out of me and pulled me against him as he laid on his side.

  I snuggled into the warmth of his arms and felt my lids grow heavy.

  So much for dinner.

  Jack

  I looked over my shoulder as I walked up the path to the door. There wasn’t anything suspicious in sight. As an officer, I knew what to look for. If there was someone following me, I was confident I would have seen them on my way.

  Still, I had taken extra precaution driving to Sky’s place. I’d wanted to get the wire on her before her next shift, but since she had shown up to my house naked on Sunday, I hadn’t had the chance to do so.

  Of course, I felt it was a fair trade. I would much rather have my dick inside her than try to figure out how to get a wire hidden in her panties. But still, it was Tuesday, and she was going back to work. I felt time was growing short with the other men in town, and I really didn’t like the fact they were following her around.

  I knew they were keeping an eye on me too, but I didn’t give a shit. I could handle them with my department at my back. I wasn’t scared of a few low life, mobbed up scum bags. I just wanted to keep Sky safe. I watched in all directions as I pulled near to her complex, and I parked a block away and around the corner. I was even more cautious as I walked up to the door, but there wasn’t anything that jumped out at me.

  Once I was inside the building, I felt a lot better. It was unlikely there were men hanging out in there watching for her, so I could breathe easier as I walked up the stairs and to her door. I had the wire in a bag slung over my shoulder, but I’d intentionally carried a computer bag so anyone who saw me wouldn’t think anything of it.

  A backpack would have been too suspicious, and I didn’t want to put the thing in my pocket. The only real solution was to bring a bag, but one that didn’t attract attention.

  I smiled when Sky opened the door. She was dressed in a simple hoodie with jeans, and she grinned back at me. “Come in, please.”

  “Thanks,” I said. “You look good. Though I might prefer your outfit from Sunday.”

  “Which one? The one I showed up in, or the one I put on during dinner?” she asked with a flirty grin.

  “More like the one you took off during dinner,” I said with a smirk.

  She grinned and I felt like I was floating. I realized then that I would do anything I could to make her smile like that as often as I could. If she needed me to be her hero, I would. If she needed me to just to listen, I would do that too. Shit, I’d stand on my head and sing show tunes if that made her smile.

  No other woman in my life had ever made me feel like she did. She was far from the weak, frightened victim I’d once thought she was. Rocco may have still had her under his thumb, but she was fighting like hell to get out. She was willing to risk her own safety to be with me and help me take him down.

  When the dust of the case finally cleared, she and I were going to have a long talk. I wanted her to know that she wasn’t just a case to me. She was a hell of a lot more. And I wanted a hell of a lot more from her. With her.

  “So what do you have for me?” I asked. “Besides a beautiful body?”

  “You’re making it hard to concentrate!” she complained, but there was still a smile on her face. “This is what I usually wear, but every now and then I wear one of these.”

  She showed me three sets of lingerie, and it was difficult for me not to get aroused just at the sight of them. I was tempted to tell her to model each one so I could refresh my memory, but we had to get down to business.

  “Alright, let’s go with the one you wear most often,” I told her. “That’s going to make it easy.”

  “What do you want me to do?” she asked.

  “Pay attention. I’m going to show you how this thing works, then I’m going to show you how we’re going to put it in the seam.” I said with a grin. “We could take a pair of scissors and put a small slit that the wire could slip right into...”

  “That could work.,” I said. She grabbed a small pair of scissors and cut the slit like she said, and I pulled the wire out from the bag.

  “That’s it?” she looked at it in surprise.

  “Yeah, what’s wrong?” I asked.

  “I just thought it would be a lot bigger,” she said.

  “No, these things are meant to be small so you can wear them and no one can tell,” I told her. “Otherwise we wouldn’t be able to do half the shit we do with them.”

  “Are you going to be listening in the entire time?” she asked.

  “Possibly. I’m going to talk to Captain Markel at the station and see what he wants to do,” I told her. “I’m heading there as soon as I’m done here.”

  “So you’re going to be sitting there all night listening to me?” she asked in surprise.

  “Not me, we have a team that’s responsible for that. They inform us ground crew if we need to go in, or they record what they need and take the wire from you later,” I said. “Now, put this on and let’s make sure you can’t see it.”

  She smiled as she dropped her jeans right in front of me. She reached down and slid the panties down her legs, and it took all the willpower I had not to reach out and grab her body. I could easily pull her close to me and have my way with her all over again, but we had to focus.

  Sky pulled her skimpy bottoms up, and I made sure the thin wire didn’t bunch in the fab
ric. “Okay. Now say something.”

  “Like what?” she asked.

  “Wait, not yet. I’m going to go into the other room and put on the headphones, then I want you to just talk. It doesn’t matter what you say, just anything. I’m going to make sure we can hear what’s going on,” I told her.

  “Okay, the bedroom’s in there,” she pointed, and I took the bag with me. She had even more bras and lacy panties spread about on the floor in there, and I wished I could go through her full collection. She had to look like a goddess in anything she put on, and I hoped the day would come when I could see it all.

  “Go ahead!” I called out after I put on the headphones. I turned on the machine and waited, hoping that it would work.

  “What do you want me to say?” she called out. I knew she was speaking loud enough I could hear her outside the headphones, but I was also getting her loud and clear inside. Her voice filled my head, and my heart could have burst.

  “Anything you want!” I called out.

  “Okay,” she said. “Um. Testing, testing, one, two, three. How’s that?”

  “Perfect,” I called out from the bedroom. “I can hear you loud and clear.”

  “Damn, this thing must be sensitive. I’m glad to know I can talk normally and won’t have to shout or talk like people are hard of hearing.”

  “Yeah, we want it to be as normal as it can me,” I said, coming back into the room as she was fastening her jeans. She laughed at the disappointed look on my face.

  “Upset you missed the show?” she asked.

  “Yeah, actually,” I responded with a grin. “I could get used to you just hanging out in your underwear.”

  “Of course you could,” she teased. “I’ve got to get ready for work now, though. Is it going to matter how long I have this thing on? I mean, can it get, well, wet?”

  “Wet?” I asked, somewhat taken aback.

  She looked a little embarrassed, then she sighed. “That pole isn’t easy to hang onto all night, and with the hot lights beating down on me – I get sweaty, I’ll put it that way.”

  I laughed again. “Oh, I see. Yeah, don’t go jumping in a pool of water, but yeah, it can get wet.”

  She nodded. “No mud wrestling, got it.”

  I nearly groaned aloud at the image that popped into my head of her writhing around half naked in a tub of mud with another woman. I reached down and adjusted my cock, pulling a laugh from her.

  Turning serious, I said, “I’m going to head down to the station and talk to Captain Markel about this. You’re going to go through your night like you always do, don’t act any differently, don’t try to look like you’re trying to get information, just do what you do.”

  “It’s going to be weird knowing that I’ve got a guy listening to my crotch while I’m giving a lap dance,” she admitted. “I mean, do you think he’s going to care?”

  “You would be surprised the things those guys listen to on a daily basis,” I assured her. “You won’t be the worst of it, I can promise you that.”

  “Good. I want to be able to save face if I ever see any of them for any reason.”

  “It’s okay. Just go through your night as though nothing is different. I have to work until almost seven and then I’ll be able to catch up with the surveillance team.”

  “That’s nearly halfway through the night,” she sounded disappointed. “But that’s okay. I know this isn’t your only case and you are needed on the streets.”

  “Ideally, I’m going to be rushing in there and arresting that asshole,” I replied. “If you pick up the right thing, then I’m going to be in the area. We’ll jump in and put that sack of shit away for good.”

  “So there’s a chance I’ll get to see you on shift?” she grinned, clearly delighted at the possibility.

  “Yes. Just be careful. Again, I don’t want you to be obvious about this. Hell, I don’t even want you to be subtle. Just pretend that it’s not even there, okay?” I asked. I looked at her seriously. It was more than a game, and though I appreciated her boldness around me, I didn’t want her to get cocky.

  Rocco was still even more dangerous as he was the day he threw her against the wall, because he knew I was involved now. If he suspected that she was working with the cops to try and take him down, he wouldn’t hesitate to kill her. Not for one second.

  “I know,” she said with a solemn nod. “I’m not going to give him any reason to think anything is up, trust me. I’m just going to act like I always do.”

  “That’s exactly what I want from you,” I told her. I leaned down toward her and she lifted her chin, meeting my lips with her own.

  “Be safe tonight,” she told me.

  “You too,” I said with a smile. She nodded and I walked out the door, surprised at how domestic it all felt. It was so natural, how she and I related to each other, I almost couldn’t believe it.

  But there was a part of me that was still worried. I trusted she knew what she was doing, and if she followed directions, there was no reason to think she’d get caught. Still, the thought lingered in the back of my mind.

  What if she did?

  Sky

  I was feeling confident when I walked out of my apartment that afternoon, but the closer I got to work, the more nervous I became. My confidence was definitely waning, and I told myself to act natural. It became something I chanted to myself as I walked along.

  “You’ve got this. You’re just going to get through the shift like you would any other Tuesday. There’s no reason to think that this isn’t going to work. Just act natural,” I whispered to myself.

  Though I didn’t think I’d be followed to work, I couldn’t help but look around as I walked. I knew it was the nerves, the paranoia that something was going to go wrong. It did help to give myself a pep talk along the way, but that didn’t take away my fears entirely.

  As the club came into view, I felt like I was going to be sick. I didn’t want to see Rocco, but he was the entire reason I was wearing the damn wire in the first place. I wanted to be done with him once and for all and wearing the wire was the only way to make that happen.

  Jack just told me to be myself. Act like nothing was different and go through the evening as I always would. The only problem was, Rocco didn’t say anything to me or around me that I felt would be enough to get him locked up. He seemed really careful to keep those sorts of discussions away from the employees.

  It wasn’t enough to make me not suspicious of him. I was convinced he was up to no good long before Jack came into the picture. But that didn’t change the fact I didn’t thing I was going to get anything that was going to help without pushing the envelope. The whole thing had seemed like a much better idea before I had the wire in my underwear and was a block away from work.

  Jack knows what they need to get this guy arrested. All you have to do is what he said. Don’t be stupid, don’t act any different than you normally do. Just get through the night and trust they are going to pick up something they can use.

  I felt a little better, but it still wasn’t enough to erase the nerves entirely. I hesitated before going inside. The brown door with paint chipping off seemed so foreboding. There was a time when that door simply symbolized my poor life choices, but today, it looked like the gate to hell.

  And I had to walk through with my head held high and a smile on my face.

  Okay, you don’t have to smile, but don’t be so jumpy. Just get in there and get through the night, I told myself. I had told myself that same thing a dozen times before, all without a wire in my crotch. Tonight wouldn’t be any different.

  I walked through the door and started for my station, stopping dead in my tracks when Rocco called my name.

  “I was hoping you’d show up on time today,” he said.

  “It’s rare that I don’t,” I replied. If I was going to act natural, I was going to be my defiant, sassy self toward him.

  “Come here, I need to talk to you about something,” he
said. My heart was pounding so hard in my chest, I was sure the men at the station could hear it. But I obeyed. I walked over to him and crossed my arms, careful to act just as I normally would. I prayed that my jeans wouldn’t muffle the sound of the wire.

  “Into my office please,” he motioned with his arm, and I sighed. I knew if we were going into the office, I was going to be yelled at for something.

  At least they’ll get a taste of the temper he doesn’t let show to the public. I obeyed, walking right into the office and standing in front of his desk.

  “I’d tone down the attitude a bit if I were you,” he said as he followed me into the room. He pulled the door closed and locked it, then he turned slightly and smiled for me. It was all I could do not to visibly cringe.

  “What did you want to talk about?” I shot back. I stood my ground, my arms folded across my chest. He walked around the other side of the desk and sat in his own seat, then he looked at me with a smile.

  “Seems to me like you’ve been a busy girl,” he said.

  “What?” I asked. “What’re you talking about?” I tried to keep my tone even, but my stomach was twisting itself in knots.

  Say it, asshole, say it. Say you’ve been following me and you know I’ve been with Jack. Say it so they can hear you through this stupid wire and can add stalking and intimidation charges to your case. Do it, motherfucker.

  “Don’t play stupid,” he said. “You know exactly what I mean.”

  “I’ve been off for the past couple days,” I said. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

  He gave me a look that could kill. I silently prayed he’d repeat the threat. Instead, he pushed himself back from his desk and spread his arms. “Come here.”

  “I’m just fine right here Rocco,” I said. My heart was once again racing.

  “You know, in all the time you’ve worked here, I’ve never taken the opportunity to sample the goods. I’ve seen you do your thing for the customers. And I’ve seen how you make them practically come in their pants. But I’ve never enjoyed one of your services myself,” he said lasciviously.
