Stephan

by Hazel Gower

I wiggled to get out of his embrace. “Gosh, what is with you Silverman men and touching without permission?” I was feeling really good. I seemed to have found some confidence.

  Richard was as handsie as Stephan. Richard’s arms came around my waist and he guided me out of the kitchen. I stumbled and giggled when Richard helped me. I felt great. I hadn’t felt so light in well, I couldn’t remember.

  I went to take another sip of wine but Richard took it from me. “Hey. I was enjoying that.”

  “I can see, but you might have enjoyed it a bit too much. You’re only an itty bitty thing.”

  “Argh, what is it with you all thinking I’m tiny. I’m so not.”

  Richard laughed. “You are.”

  I stumbled again when he guided me toward a large room with game tables and packed with people. I gazed around the room and shook my head. “Wow, they really are spoiled rich kids.”

  “Ah, I gather you’ve meet my cousins, Derick and Stephan?”

  I turned to face him and the room spun. He steadied me and I fell against his chest. “Stupid heels,” I mumbled into his chest. Richard’s chest was just as hard as Stephan’s, maybe more so. I stepped back and touched his abs, subconsciously of course. I giggled at my own thoughts.

  A finger tilted my head up and Richard was grinning at me. “Who did you come with? I think it’s best if we find th—”

  Richard’s hand was yanked from my chin. I gazed over to see what had happened. “Wanker. You’ve found me.”

  “What the fuck are you wearing?”

  “Er…clothes, idiot.” Richard and a couple of other men laughed.

  “I think you look nice,” Richard said.

  I smiled over at Richard, but when Stephan snarled like an animal, I giggled and apparently Stephan didn’t like it. He shot me a nasty glare. “Oh, I better be quiet.” I zipped my mouth with an imaginary zipper, locked it, and stuffed the imaginary lock in my bra.

  “For fuck’s sakes, Richard, how much alcohol did you bloody give her?” Stephan growled.

  Richard placed his hands up in surrender. “I didn’t give her any. I actually took her last one off her.”

  I nodded.

  Stephan scrubbed his hand over his face. “What are you doing touching my woman?”

  Hey, I wasn’t his woman. I’d told him but he didn’t listen. I got the key and unzipped my mouth. “He was being a Silverman because apparently you guys don’t know how to get permission to touch someone.” I must have said something really funny because the group around us laughed their arses off.

  “I really like her, Stephan,” one of the guys said.

  “Go get your own woman to like, Zeck,” Stephan snarled and moved, gathering me against him. I sighed, my traitorous body melted against his chest.

  “Mmm, my Stephan definitely has the better abs.”

  Everyone was howling with laughter around us.

  Stephan’s arms held me tighter around my waist. “Thanks, little bit.”

  I groaned realizing I’d just spoken out loud. “I don’t think I should have any more wine,” I whispered or at least I thought I did. I seemed to be very funny.

  Stephan’s breath tickled my ear. “I think you’re right. I do like your attitude when you’re drunk though.” I shivered as his breath so close to me made my skin burn. “Come on, I think you need to sit down.”

  Stephan helped me walk over to chairs he had against the wall. He pulled one out and sat down, then placed me across his lap.

  “Again with the touching.” I rolled my eyes. “I can sit on a seat by myself just fine thanks.”

  His arms came around me and I couldn’t help but snuggled into him. It was the alcohol I’m sure. “I know, Jade, but I like you here. Can you please stay?”

  “Well since you asked so nicely, I will just for a little bit.”

  Jade was asleep on me. I had no idea how she fell asleep with all the noise. I stroked her hair and she sighed snuggling deeper into me.

  “You’re lucky. You know that right?”

  I gazed up at Richard. He was staring at Jade with sheer jealousy.

  “I knew from the moment I spotted her she was special. Now I know she’s your Jade, the girl who went through what she has in her short lifetime and turned out like that.” He nodded to her. “She is perfect. Look how she seeks to be as close as possible to you even in her sleep.”

  I caressed her cheek, loving being so close to her. “I know, Richard. But this right now and what you saw is not what she’s been like with me.”

  “I’d expect that. Give her the time she needs. Show her how much she means to you. Be patient with her. I’m surprised with everything she’s been through she’s even letting you hold her like that,” Richard said, as he ran his fingers through his hair. “I know you didn’t want this and think it’s a curse, but we don’t all feel like you. Some of us are eager to have what you’ve been given.”

  Guilt assaulted me and I felt selfish. Richard was twenty-eight and he hadn’t found his one. I had other cousins in their thirties and forties who were still looking. I nodded. I looked down at Jade. I gripped her tighter to me as I slowly stood. “Can you find Derick and tell him I have Jade and I’m taking her to bed so she can sleep more comfortably? He needs to tell her friends she’s with me and fine. ”

  “Sure. You go and take care of Jade. I’ll sort out things with Derick and make sure everyone leaves when it’s time.”

  “Thanks. I appreciate it.”

  I walked to my section of the house, going up the stairs and to my room. I punched the code to unlock my quarters, opened the door, going in, and kicking it shut. I walked passed my game room, entered to my bedroom, and gently placed Jade on the bed. She was still clothed, if you could call the items she was wearing clothes since they barely covered her. I went to the end of the bed and undid her shoes placing them on the floor. Standing, I stared at her. Did I wake her and get her out of her clothes or let her sleep in them?

  Going back to the top of the bed I stroked her cheek, needing to touch her again before I went back to the party to help get rid of everyone.

  “Don’t go,” she moaned. “I was so warm. I’ve never felt like this before. I’m always so cold, but your body radiates warmth I can feel all the way to my bones.”

  Groaning, I went back to her. I needed to get her under the covers. “Jade, little bit. Get under the covers. Then you’ll be warm again. Do you want me to get you a shirt to get changed into?”

  Jade sat up, her eyes barely opening. “Yep.” She proceeded to take all of her clothes off. I should turn around or at least stop staring, but my eyes remained glued to her as she flung the black bra onto the floor. Money and a phone fell onto the bed and she didn’t seem to notice but continued taking the skirt off and then wiggled out of the matching G-string, throwing it with her other clothes. She shivered dramatically and my eyes honed in on her breasts as they bounced.

  Moaning at the sight before me, I didn’t know if I was in heaven or hell. I couldn’t do anything to her. She was drunk and not really awake. Clearing my suddenly dry throat, I closed my eyes and counted to ten praying for patience. Opening my eyes I saw Jade lying down again.

  “Little bit, get in the covers while I go get my shirt.”

  She slid between the sheets knocking the money and phone to the ground. I couldn’t tear my eyes from her lush full body. When she laid her head on the pillow I went to my walk-in wardrobe and got a shirt out of my drawers.

  Going back to her I saw her eyes were closed again. I placed the shirt on the bedside table then brushed the hair off her face. I decided to leave her be and let her sleep. I eased from her only to have her hand snake out and grab me.

  “Stay. Please don’t leave me.”

  I studied her, seeing her eyes closed and her face relaxed. She looked asleep. Was she playing with me? Was she testing me? Did she really want me to stay? Crap? I couldn’t leave her. My brother and cousins coul
d handle the party and make sure everyone left.

  Sighing, I stripped out of my clothes and climbed onto the bed. Jade didn’t stir. I slipped under the covers and she gravitated to me plastering herself over my body. Fuck, this was hell. I debated if I should put some clothes on, but I’d slept naked in bed since I reached puberty. I needed to get used to her like this too, because I intended to have her in my bed every night for the rest of my life. Wrapping my arms around her, I listened to her steady breathing. Contentment settled over me and I slowly let sleep claim me.

  Chapter Five

  Jade

  I’d never been this comfortable. I was warm and had the best night sleep I could ever remember. I felt safe and secure in my comfy bundle. A soothing drumbeat was against my ear and the thick plush covers were neatly tucked around me. A vanilla and coco smell surrounded me and I took a deep breath enjoying the scent. I was still sleepy and I didn’t want to move. I wanted to go back to sleep, but I needed to go to the bathroom and my throat was dry.

  Groaning, I slowing eased up, stretching. I screeched when the covers dropped revealing my nakedness. What the hell? I never slept naked. I looked down at the bed only to jump back and grab the blanket to cover myself.

  “What are you doing in my bed?” I yelled at Stephan.

  Stephan sat up and the sheet covering his lower half slipped.

  “Oh. My. God. Why are you naked? Why am I naked?” I tried not to stare at his body, the roped muscles as he eased up or the clenching of his abs, and I definitely didn’t look at the enormous member standing straight up ready for action. Well he wouldn’t be getting any me. My God, the thing wouldn’t even fit, not that I was looking at it cos I so wasn’t. It twitched in my direction and I scrambled back. It was alive.

  “I’d stop staring at it if you don’t want to find it entering you.”

  My glaze shot up to Stephan’s face. “Don’t even joke. You and that…that thing are not coming near me.”

  Stephan chuckled and reached for me. I squealed and backed up until I felt the edge of the bed, but he pounced on me dragging me back and on top of him.

  I whacked his chest and struggled to get off him only to freeze when I felt my pussy brush his bare skin. Holy shit. My body heated and I gazed down to see a grinning Stephan as he stared at my bare breasts. I covered my breasts with my hands and Stephan smirked.

  “Close your eyes.” I moaned, horrified he’d seen me naked.

  “Why would I do something silly like that?”

  “Grrr, answer me.”

  “Which one? You asked a lot of questions.”

  “All of them,” I snarled at his still grinning face. His damn dimples were showing and I felt tingles flutter through me. I clenched my core as it throbbed. Oh no, this was not good.

  “This isn’t your bed. It’s mine. I’m naked because I haven’t slept clothed since I was twelve. You’re naked because you took your clothes off.”

  I opened my mouth, gaping at him like a fish and I felt my eyes widen. “I did not.”

  “Yeah you did. You fell asleep on me at the party, when you didn’t wake up after an hour, I decided to take you up so you could sleep in a bed. I put you down and told you I was going to go get a shirt for you, then you just took your clothes off and slipped into bed and went back to sleep. You begged me to join you too.” He wiggled his eyebrows.

  “You’re full of shit, you know that?” I didn’t believe him. There was no way I’d ask him to join me in bed. I pushed on his chest and eased off him, but his hold tightened on me.

  “You can go once I get my morning kiss.”

  “Ha, dream on, buddy.” I wiggled and placed my hand on his, prying his fingers off me, but they didn’t move. I wasn’t kissing him. No way. Especially not naked.

  “Oh I’m not dreaming.” He rotated his hips and ground them against me. I gasped as I felt his erection brush my pussy lips. I needed to get off him like now. “Give me one kiss and I’ll let you go. Promise.”

  A kiss. What could one kiss do? Leaning down, I let one hand leave my breast to help me balance and brushed my lips over his. I pulled away but he shook his head and moved his hands up to my hair threading it through his fingers.

  “I said a kiss. That wasn’t a kiss. This is.” He yanked me down to him and took my lips to his, opening his mouth he bit my lip making me open mine. Stephan’s tongue went in search of mine, finding it and tangling them together. His hands left my hair and glided down my back, cupping and squeezing my arse, pushing me against him. My body was ablaze with passion and I basked in his touch.

  I almost pulled him back to me when Stephan pulled his mouth from mine. “Fuck me. Little bit, you’re going to be the death of me. Go.” He let me go and placed his hands behind his head. “The door on your right is a bathroom.” He moved and reached over to the left bedside drawers' top, and handed me the shirt he’d gotten out last night. “You can wear this if you like. It will cover more than what you were wearing last night anyway.”

  I bit my lip and grabbed the shirt to cover my body. He rolled his eyes. “I didn’t choose last night’s outfit. The girls dressed me. I was their personal doll.”

  Stephan growled and I swear the butterflies in my stomach did summersaults and my core throbbed.

  “Go now. I can only refrain from touching you again for so long. Thinking of your outfit last night and all the attention you got is tempting me to keep you in this bed with me, and showing you what happens when you wear clothes like that.”

  I scrambled off him clutching his shirt. I saw my clothes sprawled across the floor, and gathering them up I ran in the direction of the bathroom. I shut the door and locked it, leaning against it and calming my raging emotions. Stephan was dangerous to me. He made me feel things I’d never felt for anyone else. I needed to get dressed and get as far away from him as I could.

  Stephan

  I got out of bed and shoved on my pants. I went to my wardrobe and grabbed some clean clothes, and then left my room going to my brother’s so I could use his shower. Punching in his code I didn’t bother knocking. I walked in through his playroom and into his bedroom passing him and some chick asleep on the bed and went straight to his bathroom.

  I turned only the cold tap on and got under the spray. Bloody Jade would be the death of me. My whole body ached with a need so strong I didn’t think it would ever go away. Wrapping my hand around my cock I pumped it and closed my eyes bring the vision of Jade naked above me. I moaned when the tension built and I clenched it tighter, thrusting my cock in and out as I remembered the feel of her naked body against mine, the taste of her lips and the feel of her pussy hovering over my dick. I came biting my lips to keep me yelling Jade’s name. Opening my eyes I groaned as my cock was still hard. Fuck, I was in hell.

  Scrubbing my body, I tried not to think of Jade in my shower as I knew I didn’t have time to jackoff again. Dunking my head under the ice cold water, I let it rinse me off. I turned the water off. I’d had a quick shower, I knew Jade would either take her time or rush so she could leave me as soon as she was ready.

  Drying off, I chucked on my clothes, opened the bathroom door and left.

  Derick was sitting up in bed. “Is there something wrong with your shower?”

  “Nope. Jade is in it. I needed to get ready before she does and runs.”

  Derick shook his head. “Good luck.”

  “Thanks, bro. I’m going to need it.”

  I walked back to my room and smiled to see the bathroom door closed and the shower running. I looked down to see the money and her phone on the floor. I picked them up. The mobile was ancient with no camera and the money was ten dollars. Jade needed a new phone. I’d get her one like my dad had for my mum with the top of the line-tracking device. I frowned, my mother forgot her phone all the time. Dad had given her a special necklace, she never took it off. I’d do the same for Jade. Then I would have insurance in case she forgot the phone.

  Jade would never
accept a new phone from me, especially if the one she had was working. Hearing the shower still going, I dropped the phone and stood on it, smiling, when I heard it crack. Picking up the broken phone, I smiled. Placing the money and phone in my pocket I went to my bedside drawers and I got out my own phone and wallet.

  I heard the shower turn off. I went and got socks and shoes, coming out in time to see Jade walking out of the bathroom. She wore my shirt tied in a knot with the tight skirt below it. She gazed at me and I watched as her guard slammed back in place. I braced myself for what she would say.

  “I need to go. This was all a big drunken mistake. I’m just happy we didn’t have sex. Um…thanks for looking after me though. I’ve got to go now. If you could just point me in the direction to exit I’ll be on my way.”

  Clenching my fists, I took a deep breath to calm myself. I knew she was going to close up again. I pulled her phone out of my pocket. “I’ll give you a ride home. You can get changed and I’ll take you to the shops. I’m sorry but I stepped on your phone. Let me buy you a new one to make up for this one.”

  Her eyes widened and she came to me looking down at her smashed phone. “Great, just my luck.” She looked up at me and guilt assaulted me as I saw tears glisten in her eyes. “You don’t have to buy me a new phone. It’s my fault for leaving it somewhere you could break it.”

  Shit. “Ah, you didn’t leave it somewhere it could get stomped on. It was on the bedside table and I accidently knocked it off and when I got up I stepped on it. It was my fault. So you have to let me replace it.”

  She groaned and I could see the war going on. “I don’t know.”

  I grabbed her hand and walked her toward the door. “Come on. I can afford to replace your phone. It won’t even put a dent in my bank account.”

  She stumbled along following me. “I won’t be in debt to you?”

  I hid my gin before I glanced at her. “No. I promise.”

  “Okay. Before we go can I borrow your phone to call Cassie and tell her I’m okay? I also need to get my things from her house.”
