Give Me Fever Page 16

  “Hey, I’m not Steve Urkel.”

  Jade felt like maybe she’d hurt his feelings, so she reached across the table and stroked his strong hand with her finger. “Remember in the end Steve got his girl.”

  Kaeden nodded. “And I got mine,” he told her with confidence.

  She nodded as she locked her eyes with his. “And she’s happy about that,” she promised him huskily.

  Kaeden sat up and leaned forward to raise her hand and place a kiss on her wrist.

  “So…what happened with you and Felecia?” she asked.

  “We just didn’t work out.”

  “And?” she asked, prodding him.

  “Okay, that was her in the bridal boutique that day,” he told her, as he released her hand and picked up his drink to take a deep sip. “Let’s just say she was planning a wedding with yours truly as the groom and I knew nothing about it.”

  “Every woman has dreams of her wedding day, Kaeden,” she said.

  He frowned. Deeply. “Does every woman buy the wedding dress before they’re even proposed to?”

  “Okay, that is going overboard, but it had to be more than that, Kaeden.”

  “She wasn’t you.”

  Jade’s heart thundered. Kaeden was really showing up big-time. Everything he said and did was on point.

  “She’s highly pissed at me right now. I guess I could have ended things better, but the trunk of wedding crap freaked me out.”

  Jade frowned. “Wow, she really wants to marry you.”

  Kaeden shook his head. “I think she really wants to get married. Period.”

  “She looks like that marrying type. You know, the French roll hairdo, the skirt down past her knees, the Bible on the backseat of the car.”

  Kaeden laughed. “And what type are you, Jade Prince?”

  “Actually, I’m the marrying type, but because of the way I look men try to group me in the ‘just a hit it and split’ type.” Jade sat back in her chair and crossed her legs as she eyed him. “Now, be honest. When you were checking for a sister on the low, you ever thought about me meeting your mama or were you imagining what all this looks like without clothes?”

  Kaeden cleared his throat and shifted in his seat.

  “Mmm-hmm. See. Told you,” she teased.

  He laughed.

  “And that’s why I resisted getting physical with someone.”

  Kaeden wiped his mouth and hands with his napkin. “Seriously?” he asked, not even hiding the obvious doubt that he had.

  “A lot of Darren’s anger is not because I cheated on him—because I didn’t. He’s mad that you got something he’s been working overtime to get,” she drawled as she picked up her fork and resumed eating her shrimp scampi.

  “Ouch,” Kaeden said.

  “I want you to understand that what happened between us is not the norm for me, Kaeden.” A thought occurred to Jade. “You know, I should thank you for keeping me from being a hypocrite.”

  “How’s that?”

  “I’m always complaining about men wanting me just for my body and not caring for me as a person, and here I have this really great guy offering to take me out to dinner and all I wanted to do was jump him like a horny dog.”

  “It wasn’t easy. That was one helluva invitation.” Kaeden held up his hands. “You have to understand that you are fine as hell.”

  “But I am also smart, determined, passionate, loving, empathetic…”

  Kaeden leaned forward. “Those are the things I want to learn about you. Sexing the hell out of you is the easy part, and I’m ready for the work of being in a relationship with you.”

  Jade met his stare with one of her own as she wondered if Kaeden Strong was absolutely too good to be true. “I’m ready too,” she told him. “Good.”

  “Great.”

  “Fantastic.”

  Jade looked up at the deep sound of Kaeden’s voice and caught the light of desire in his eyes and she picked up one of her shrimp and sucked the garlic sauce from it. “Won-der-ful.”

  Kaeden’s eyes fell down to watch the move.

  Jade loved the way his facial expression became like that of a child awaiting a huge surprise. “We’re going to learn a lot about each other, but there are things we already know,” she told him huskily as she swirled the shrimp in the sauce on her plate and then proceeded to suck it again.

  Kaeden swallowed past a lump in his throat. “I agree. I know that you love the outdoors and you’re very athletic.”

  Jade nodded as she eased her foot from her sandal. “And I know that you and the outdoors don’t mix.”

  Kaeden licked his lips. “And I know that you like wearing dresses and skirts.”

  “And you are all over suits and slacks.” Jade slid her bare foot across until she pressed it against his leg.

  Kaeden jumped in surprise. “We both go to the same church,” Kaeden offered as Jade massaged him intimately with her toes.

  “We used to go to the same church,” she amended.

  She smiled like an angel while she enjoyed the feel of him getting hard against the sole of her wandering foot. “We grew up in the same little town and we know each other’s families.”

  Kaeden wondered whether, if Jade didn’t stop, his dick would get hard enough to lift the edge of the table. “Can we go deeper?”

  Jade swirled and sucked the shrimp. Again. “Ooh. I always like it deep.”

  “How deep?” he asked.

  Jade ran her foot up and down the length of him. “About eleven…inches…deep.”

  Kaeden spread his legs wider beneath the table as he shook his head. “Eleven and a half,” he corrected her with a gleam in his eyes.

  The bud between Jade’s legs throbbed and she shifted in her seat. Her body felt warm and flushed. Her nipples hardened and strained against the thin lace of her brassiere. She was slightly panting and she wasn’t quite sure she wasn’t ready to cum right there at their table. “Ooh,” she purred with a lick of her lips as she leaned back a bit to fan herself with her hand.

  Kaeden reached under the table and grabbed her foot to press against his hardness. “So we had the dinner and drink, right?”

  Jade nodded eagerly. “Check.”

  “Conversation.”

  “Check.”

  “And now for dessert?” Kaeden asked in a low voice filled with hunger for her.

  Jade turned in her seat and eyed their waitress, waving her over. “Check…please.”

  “Strip,” Kaeden ordered from his spot on his couch in the dimly lit living room as he unzipped his pants and removed his lengthening erection.

  Jade’s eyes glazed over, loving that Kaeden was just as uninhibited sexually as she was. She kept her eyes locked on him stroking the length of his dick as she slowly undressed. First her pants. Then the shirt. Panties. And lastly the bra. She stood before him nude and proud as she reached down to grasp her breasts. She pushed the full globes high until she was able to lick her throbbing nipples with the tip of her tongue while she worked her hips in a sultry back-and-forth motion.

  “Hell yeah, Jade. Bring that thing to me, girl.”

  She watched him hurry out of his clothes and drop down to sit on the floor with his back pressed against the sofa. “What you gone do with it?” she asked as she teased her own nipples, loving the pleasure she was giving herself and so anxious for the pleasure he would give her.

  “Sit on my face,” he ordered.

  Jade laughed huskily as she pressed her knees onto the end of the sofa so that she was straddling his head with his open mouth blowing cool air against her throbbing core. She gripped the back of the couch as Kaeden grabbed her buttocks and sucked the whole of her core into his mouth. She rocked her hips and bit her bottom lip. Her legs quivered and her feet felt like they were held to the flames as he sucked her clit deeply.

  Kaeden moaned at the smell and taste of her, enjoying the treat just as much as Jade obviously did.

  When she jerked her hips away he was disa
ppointed…until she turned around on her knees and then leaned down the length of his body until she slid his hard length into her mouth to suck deeply.

  “Aaah,” he cried out, her buttocks and core splayed out before him.

  “That’s called a switch,” she informed him as she licked from the thick base of him to the throbbing warm tip.

  Kaeden nodded before he turned his head and sucked her buttocks as she jiggled her cheeks against his face. “You better stop ’fore it cum, Jade,” he warned her as his heart pounded wildly in his chest.

  With a last fast and deep sucking motion of his tip, Jade worked her body the length of him and spread her legs wide on his lap before she raised her buttocks and then slowly eased her core down onto his dick.

  Kaeden’s mouth dropped open at the sight of their union and the feel of her on him, surrounding him, gliding up and down him, riding him. He bit his bottom lip as he slapped her cheeks soundly.

  Jade paused her core on the tip, exposing the wet length of him to the air as she jiggled her buttocks and squeezed her walls before expertly dropping down in one swift and hard swoop down onto him.

  Kaeden’s heart stopped and he roughly grabbed her buttocks to ease some of his length out of her before he filled her with his seed and ended the ride that had just begun. This position he just could not stand.

  “Switch,” Jade called out before she rolled off his erection but then climbed onto his lap to ease down onto it again.

  “How many of these switches are we going to have tonight?” he asked, almost breathless as she worked his dick like a piston with her walls.

  “As many as you can stand.”

  Kaeden just let himself drift back as he gripped her hips and enjoyed the ride.

  Jade sighed as Kaeden pushed her naked body up against the wall. She arched her back as he sucked her neck. Her body shivered. She raced her hands down his body to tightly grasp his buttocks, enjoying the feel of them. “Yes,” she moaned into the heated air.

  Kaeden lifted one of her legs high on his arm before he bent low and guided his dick up into her.

  “Lord, you on my spot,” she told him before she hotly licked his chin and bit as each thrust pressed her buttocks against the cool wall.

  Kaeden stared into her eyes as he tilted her head up and kissed her passionately. “God, I love sexing you,” he whispered into her open, panting mouth.

  “Oh, it’s good. It’s good.” Jade smiled before she sucked his mouth.

  “I’m all up in it,” he told her cockily.

  “All of it, baby.”

  He buried his tongue in her mouth and they rocked against each other as the wall kept them both from falling to the floor. And they didn’t rush it. It was a slow and steady grind complemented with deep kisses as their eyes stayed locked. Intense. Passionate. Fulfilling.

  Kaeden dropped his head down on hers as his entire body went still.

  Jade continued to move.

  “No, I don’t want to cum yet.”

  “Kaeden,” she whispered into his ear.

  “Huh?”

  “Switch.”

  Jade sat down on the edge of the bed and spread her knees wide as Kaeden knelt down between them. She pressed her hands into the bed and leaned back as he lowered his head to capture one taut and throbbing nipple in his eager mouth as he probed her core, searching for the heat and wetness to quickly and deeply slide into.

  They both cried out.

  Jade at the hardness.

  Kaeden at the tight heat.

  Shivering, he began to flex his square buttocks with each thrust into her tightness. He enjoyed the sight of Jade’s full chocolate globes lightly bouncing against her chest with her nipples pointing at him as he drove into her. Again and again and again.

  “Uhmmmm,” Jade moaned in sweet ecstasy as she leaned back to work her hips against his in a circular motion that was a sight to see and to feel.

  Kaeden leaned back to watch his dick slickly slide in and out. Her thick, hairless lips snuggled against him as her walls milked him, gripping and releasing perfectly. “Damn, Jade. Damn it,” he cried out as his pulse raced and sweat covered his entire body.

  “What?” she asked cockily as she looked up at him. “Good, ain’t it?”

  Kaeden gripped her thighs. “Damn right.”

  “Say it,” she ordered.

  “It’s good, baby. Damn, it’s good.”

  “It gets even better,” she told him, leaning up to wrap her arms around his neck as they continued to mate in the most primal fashion.

  “Jade.”

  “Hmmmm?”

  “No more switching.”

  She leaned her head back and laughed. “No more?”

  Kaeden wrapped his arms around her snugly and buried his face in the sweet hollow of her neck, allowing himself to get lost to time and place.

  Jade wrapped her legs and arms around him just as tightly.

  Back and forth they rocked, slow and steady, in perfect unison until they both soon were tensing and shivering with the sweet explosions of release.

  Both felt complete.

  Chapter 18

  Jade eased Kaeden’s arms from her body and slid from the bed. Stretching her nude frame, she tiptoed out of her bedroom and made her way into the kitchen where she fixed herself a glass of ice water. She felt exhausted and exhilarated all at once.

  She and Kaeden had been inseparable the last few weeks, sharing steamy, sex-filled nights and dates showcasing more of Charleston than she had seen during her entire twenty-five years growing up in Holtsville. She smiled into her glass remembering the good times they had shared. The funny moments. The quiet and reflective moments. The sensual ones. All of them had made for a good time for the new couple.

  Jade was finally beginning to believe that her mother was right that Kaeden was her Mr. Right and there was nothing wrong with that.

  “I missed you in bed.”

  Jade turned. She smiled at Kaeden standing behind her in a pair of pajama bottoms that were slung low on his narrow hips, while he wiped his eyes with the back of his hands. “Needed some water. Want some?” she offered.

  At his silence she looked over her shoulder at him. His eyes were running all over her nude body. When those eyes shifted up to her face they were filled with desire. Jade sat the glass down on the counter and covered her privates with her arms as best she could. “Oh no, Kaeden Strong, you know I have a camping trip I’m leaving for early in the morning. I need my rest,” she told him.

  Kaeden reached out and grabbed her to pull her close to his body. “Trust me, once I get done you won’t have no choice but to sleep,” he whispered near her ear before biting her playfully.

  Jade tilted her head back as his dangerous mouth planted kisses along her neck. “I can’t, Kaeden.”

  He gave her one final kiss to her collarbone and then soundly slapped her ass.

  “Ow!” Jade exclaimed, rubbing her bottom as they made their way back to her bedroom.

  “You don’t mind me slapping that ass when I’m hitting it from the back.” Kaeden climbed back into the bed.

  “Well, I’m usually pretty preoccupied then.” Jade snuggled close to Kaeden, laying her head on his chest, her arms across his abdomen, and her leg across his legs.

  Her body fit his like a lock to a key.

  Kaeden brought his hand up to massage her lower back and the deep curve above her buttocks. “Your body feels good, Jade.”

  She smiled like a cat stretching in the sun as she looked up through the open window at the full moon seeming ready to burst through. “Do you have any regrets, Kaeden?” she asked him softly into the quiet of the night.

  Kaeden nodded. “I have a few. Do you?”

  Jade laughed huskily. “I have plenty.”

  “Share.”

  They had shared many a conversation like this over the last few weeks. Random questions. Reflective thoughts. Both the impetus for talks where they really got to know one another. “I wish my
mother and I were as close as when I was a little girl,” Jade admitted.

  “Why do you think you’re not close?”

  “She’s so busy catching up on her lost youth that she wants a hang-out partner and not a daughter.” Jade’s eyes saddened. “Have you seen my mother? She looks like my sister.”

  “Ain’t that the truth,” Kaeden drawled.

  Jade pinched his side.

  “Ow!”

  They both laughed as they settled back against one another.

  “Your turn,” Jade prodded him.

  “I always wondered why I’m the black sheep of my family,” Kaeden said, the sadness in his voice revealing how deeply he meant the words.

  Jade hugged him closer.

  “It was real hard growing up and having to watch my brothers through the window while they played or worked the farm. I felt like the boy in the bubble,” he joked, obviously trying to lighten the mood.

  “Awwwwww,” she said sympathetically.

  Kaeden chuckled. “Hell, if I didn’t have the silver hair and looks like Kahron I would think I was adopted or switched at birth.”

  Jade thought for a moment as she lightly stroked his abdomen. “Families are like puzzles, Kaeden, every piece is cut differently and every piece has its predestined spot…but when you put the pieces all together, they fit perfectly.”

  “That’s deep.” Kaeden placed a kiss to the top of her head.

  Jade twirled her tongue around his nipple, the hairs tickling her tongue. “I can get all philosophical when I wanna.”

  Kaeden shivered. “If you don’t stop that you’re gonna get all this,” he told her, lifting his chin in the direction of his dick tenting the sheet.

  Jade laughed as she turned over in the bed to lie on her side. Kaeden immediately shifted his own body to spoon her from behind. She released a contented sigh as one of his warm hands settled on her breast. “No nipple action tonight,” she told him with a yawn, having learned that he liked to fall asleep teasing her nipples.

  Kaeden slid his hand down to her belly. “All I’d have to do is lift your leg and slide in. Just a little light one. We won’t shake the bed or even break a sweat.”
