“I messed up,didn’tI?”

“No, babe. I know that I would have reacted the same way if I had phoned you and heard you talking to another guy, while drunk. Hell, I would have hunted you down so I could beat the bloke to a fucking pulp. No one touches what's mine.” A shiver runs through me at his words. It really shouldn’t turn me on having Jay speak like this, about beating some man up, but it does. Wow, I have read way too many books where the alpha guy punches someone and the main female character gets all horny because of it. It is not a usual reaction from me, since I hate violence. But hearing Jay say it... Whoa. I also think that, deep down, both Jay and I know that he would never hit someone for noreason.

“Do you have any more appointments today?” Jay asks. I shake my head at him, tellinghimno.

“I sent Chris home early because we are quiet thisafternoon.”

“Good, you can come home with me. I get to have you all to myself for a few hours.” He smirks at me, bloodypervert.

“Can we go to mine instead, please? I need to check on MJ and Stark.” He nodshishead.

“Anything you want, Kitten. You know that now you have put a claim on me, you are stuck with me forever. No losing me now.” He winks at me. "But since we are doing the whole claiming thing… You are mine, also. I am officially claiming you, Miss Dawson. And I don't share, ever." his voice takes a gravely tone, which says that he means what he is saying. I just got claimed, and what woman doesn't want to be claimed by a man like JayCastle.

I get to spend the rest of the day with my boyfriend, that just defended my honour with my arsey ex-boyfriend. I am pretty sure I can give him a little reward when we get backtomine.

It’sValentine’s Day and I am taking Cassie out on the date to blow all other dates out of the water. I have booked us a three-day/two-night cruise. We leave this morning and arrive back home Sunday evening. We leave Southport and head to Hamburg before coming back home. It was Addy’s idea, and I am so fucking happy she helped me out. Yeah, I know women's bodies, but arranging dates… I suck arse. Chris has helped me out with the salon, and the packing of Cassie’s clothes. He did it all, and even went shopping to buy her some newthings.

The drive over to her house takes way too long, due to roadworks in town, and my nerves are going haywire. Music is playing through my car radio, but it’s doing shit all to help calm me down. I am hoping that this weekend away will be the time we take the final step. I am so fucking itching to be buried deep inside of her. To feel her tighten around me. We have done other stuff, and it is just making my excitement level go through the roof. She’s sucked me off a few times, and I have gotten to taste her a few times, too, and let me tell you… All the men in the world are missing out not tasting her, and that makes me one happy fucker to know that no one else will get to taste my kitten - orfeelher.

I finally pull up outside Cassie’s house and turn the car engine off, before I climb out and jog up to her door. It swings open before I can lift my hand and knock. Kitten is standing there in brown knee-high boots over blue jeans, and a loose knit jumper with one side baring her shoulder to me, her creamy skin tantalizing. She has her hair styled half up and pinned back, and the rest down, it makes her lookyounger.

“You are fucking beautiful.” The words spurt from my mouth before I can stop them. But fuck if I didn’t mean it. A sweet blush creeps up her neck and cheeks, making my dick even harder in myjeans.

“Thank you, handsome. You look quite hot there yourself.” I look down at myself and take in my black outfit. Well, except for my blue and white plaidshirt.

“I know.” I throw a wink at her and shegiggles.

“Modest much. Come in, I just need to grab my bag.” I follow her inside her place and shut the door behind me. I notice that MJ and Stark are nowhere to be seen, Chris must have picked them up already. Still wanting to drag the surprise out for a little longer, I feign curiosity as to where theymightbe.

“Who has MJ and Stark?” I call out to her. She is in her bedroom, doing girly things, I wouldguess.

“It is really strange, like Dr Strange type. Chris wants them for the weekend to see if Rich is a ‘future-pet-type-of-man’. I don’t know, it was all weird to me,” she explains as she walks back down the stairs to me. My breath catches again at the sight of this woman before me. She is all fucking mine. She stops on the bottom step and watches me watch her. We are locked in each other’s gazes, and this is like one of those Hallmark moviemoments.

Soppybastards.

I step closer, and she stays on the bottom step, bringing her to my eye level. I lift and rest my hands on her hips, holding her in place as I lean in and kiss her, softly at first. But her taste drives me crazy. And as I deepen the kiss, pure male satisfaction fires in my blood as she moans. I am more than happy to swallow any sounds that she makes. My tongue presses into her mouth, feeling how warm and sweet she is. I could stay here with her all day, but we have better places to be. I need to be the gentleman I always thought I was, but my dick is screaming at me for being a fucking idiot right now. But he will thank melater.

“Baby, we need to go,” I say, and step away. I hold my hand out for her, and she grasps it, before I pull her towards the living room where I saw her coat laying across the back of the couch. I let her hand go and lift her coat up, opening it up for her to slip on. See, I can be thegentleman.

“Thank you, kind Sir,” she says with a hint of sexy in her voice. My cock takes notice – hell, he notices everything that she does. He will be singing ‘Praise the Lord’ by the end of this weekend. Fuck, in a few hours, if we are extralucky.

“So, where are we going,MrC?”

“Now that is a surprise, my dear Kitten,” I whisper in her ear, making her shiver. I know it is me making her do that, and not the cold - we are still inside herhouse.

“Not fair.” She sticks her bottom lip out, pouting liketoddler.

“Oh, Kitten, I will bite that lip if you don’t put it away,” I warn her. She knows what she does to me and my poor cock. I am pretty sure she does this sexy but innocent shit onpurpose.

“Fine.” She walks past me and picks up her phone and keys from the table, and stops by the front door, giving me the ‘move-it’ look. I salute her and walk outside, watching as she closes and locks the door, before walking tomycar.

When Cassie sawthe signs saying that we were headed for the port, she had a freak out, screaming at me about MJ and Stark, the salon, if her family knew that I was kidnapping her. Yes, you read that right. She accused me of kidnapping her like some baddie in a movie. Crazy chick. I just laughed at her, which made her slap my arm harder, hurting her hand in the process. By the time I explained where we were going, we had arrived, and she hadcalmeddown.

I was lucky enough to get the cabin with a balcony this weekend. Now we’re sitting in our cabin, it was great for what we wanted, which was time to ourselves. When we first got shown into our cabin, we dumped our bags and went exploring around the ship. Fucking huge, was an understatement. It was a lot to take in, but even with everything there was to see and do onboard, all I wanted to do was get my kitten alone and naked. Yes, definitelynaked.
