Chapter 281 - Best Steps Forward (1/2)

Jos let out a heavy sigh as she set the bags she was carrying on the counter. She looked around the empty house. ”It's so...”

Arei chuckled as he set his own bags down and came up behind her, wrapping his arms around her. ”Quiet?”

Jos frowned as she turned in his arms. ”I was going to say lonely.”

Arei smiled down at her. ”Yes... maybe so, but...” He sent her a playful smile as he lifted her onto the kitchen bar. ”We can also do this now without worrying about getting caught.” he pressed between her knees as his lips lowered to hers for a teasing kiss.

”I never realized getting caught was a concern of yours.” Jos chuckled as she unfastened the top buŧŧons of his shirt and placed a kiss on the center of the tattoo running from collar to collar. ”I feel like if we're going to be together, and I'm going to be a part of your father's court I should get one of these too...” She tugged his shirt to the side and placed a kiss to the brand on his ċhėst.

”Hum... There's no rush.” He lifted her finger and placed a kiss to the ring she wore. ”This is enough for me, for the time being.” He tugged her arm around his neck as he brought his lips down to hers once again. ”I love you, kitten.”

Jos smiled happily up at him. ”I love you.” She wiggled toward the edge of the counter wrapping her legs around his waist.

”I'll never get tired of hearing those words from your lips.” He whispered against her lips.

”Nor I from yours.” She murmured between kisses.

With a guttural growl he lifted her off the counter and toward the stairs. Shooting a glance toward the couch, he laughed. ”I'm tempted to gather supplies and come back down to break it in.”

Jos followed his eyes over to the couch. Her eyes widened as a blush crept up her neck. ”Umm... Is that really a good idea? I mean in case Rin and Shelly do decide to take us up on our offer?” Her lips turned into a questioning frown. ”I mean... I don't think I could set a baby on a surface we've had sėx on without properly cleaning it first...”

Arei's laughter rumbled through her. ”Well since you put it like that...” His mouth lowered to hers as he began up the stairs.”

Once he stepped into their room, he paused. ”Would you like a shower or bath first?”

Jos's eyes lit as she giggled. ”Would it be us if we didn't start in water of some kind?”

”Haha, I doubt it.” With that, he headed toward the bathroom.

”I'll never get used to your abilities to run through such mundane tasks without putting me down.” She commented as she tightened her hold on his neck.

His lips curved into a wickedly sėxy smile. ”It's never mundane if you're in my arms.” As soon as steam began to fill the shower, Arei stepped inside and under the warm water cascading down from the showerhead.

She spurted out in disbelief as she slapped his ċhėst. ”You could have let me undress first! Our clothes-”

”Will be fine.” He murmured seductively as his lips lowered to hers. Water streamed down their faces as he drank hungrily from her sweet lips. He pressed her back against the cool tile of the shower, holding her back to watch the black lace of her bra become visible through the white cotton shirt she wore. He held her firmly as he let his mouth lower to one hard peek tenting her shirt, before moving to the other.

Jos dug her fingers into the tight knot of his hair as he suċkėd her sėnsɨtɨvė nɨppŀės through the shirt. ”Arei, please.”

His eyes met hers, but his mouth bȧrėly lifted from her brėȧst. ”Please what, kitten?”

”It's been such a long day...” She grumbled. ”Don't make me wait any longer...”

The corner of his lips raised exposing straight white canines as he gave her a crooked grin. ”Have you been wanting this that long, kitten?” He let one hand slide under her thɨġh, seeking out the now-soaked cloth of her pȧntɨės. He glided his finger across the wet material, watching as his touch drew a gasp from her. ”I love watching your arousal grow.” When she only mȯȧnėd in response to his touch, he found her lips with his own pinning her harder against the wall. He quickly worked the belt of his jeans loose along with the buŧŧon and zipper, working himself free. He glided the length of his ċȯċk against the wet lace of her pȧntɨės, careful not to snag one of the bars in the delicate material.

”Arei...” His name came out as a pleading mȯȧn. One of her hands was still tangled in his hair as the fingers of the other slid under his buŧŧon-down and dug into the hard muscle of his shoulder. Her entire body was pulsing with need as his mouth moved over her neck, nipping and suċkɨnġ the tender flesh. ”Tease...” She huffed as the hard ridge of his shaft left her.

Arei smiled against her lips as he pushed the lacy pȧntɨės to the side and slid himself against her hot, wet folds. ”Teasing you is the best part, kitten.” He pressed the ball of the piercing going through the head of his ċȯċk to her ċŀɨt as he stroked against her causing another loud mȯȧn to escape her parted lips. Her eyes closed and her head rolled back as tiny shudders traveled through her body. He'd learned her body well over the past weeks they'd been back together, and this was his opportunity. His hand moved to her hip, holding her into place as he pressed his tip against her core. When she wiggled impatiently against him, he pressed just inside.

”Ahhh! Yes! Please!” She cried out as she wiggled needily against him.
