“Are you sure that’s it?”
I shrugged. “I guess. I don’t mean to be a party pooper, but it’s just not my scene tonight. I can get myself back to the ranch if you want to go back inside.”
He smiled and moved me back from him before he spoke. “If you’re ready to leave, then I’ll text Phantom and he can let Roughstock and Cheyenne know. They’re staying here, by the way. Your cousin had a little too much, and he already took her to their room upstairs and put her to bed.”
I looked up at the second floor of the clubhouse and felt bad that I didn’t say good night to her. “I guess if you’re really okay with leaving, then I think I’d like to go back and maybe get into the hot tub since they’re staying here tonight.”
Jagger leaned down and placed his hands on my cheeks as he pressed his lips to mine. His voice was husky as he said, “You read my mind, beautiful.”
Pulling out his phone, he typed something then slid it back into the pocket of his cut while I put my jacket on. I was already eager to get into the hot tub and soak away the stress and hard work.
Jagger took my hand into his and guided me around the side of the clubhouse and then to the back of the building where we parked. There were motorcycles parked in the front, along theside, and next to our off-road vehicles, and as Jagger helped me into the passenger seat, I remarked off-handedly, “I’d love to go for a ride.”
Jagger walked around the back and got behind the wheel before he looked over with hooded eyes and replied, “I’ll give you a ride.”
I smiled and bit my lip before he winked at me and cranked the engine. After backing out, making sure to not touch one of the bikes, he pulled out of the parking lot and onto the road leading back to the house. It was about a ten-minute drive across the open land, and when we were about halfway, just over the creek that cut through the property, I asked, “Could you stop and turn off the engine?”
He gave me a confused look but did as I asked. After finding a fairly flat spot close to some boulders sticking out of the ground, he turned the engine off and pivoted to face me. The black sky, devoid of any light pollution, was clearer than I remembered seeing in years. Millions of twinkling stars filled the sky above us, and as I looked up at them, I couldn’t help but smile.
Glancing over at Jagger, I saw him smiling as he watched me. “What?”
“You’re so fucking beautiful,” he remarked, and my smile grew bigger.
Leaning over the small console, I pressed my lips to his, and when he gripped the back of my neck, pressing me closer to him, I felt the last of my inhibitions fall away. Pushing off my seat, I released our kiss as I stood through the open top of the vehicle and positioned one foot on either side of his lap before kneeling. There wasn’t much room, but I needed to be closer to him at that moment.
Jagger grabbed my neck again, pulling me closer to him as he kissed me like I’d never been kissed before. His tongue explored my mouth as one hand slowly crept up my leg to my waist. WhenI felt him moving higher, I tried to move my hips, only to realize how tight a fit we were.
“I need to get you back to the house,” he mumbled as his lips moved across my cheek and down my neck. My head rolled to the side as he nibbled my skin, and I was both chilly and burning up at the same time.
“There’s a blanket in the backseat,” I remarked and heard him actually growl against my neck.
“I’m trying to do right by you, my beautiful warrior. Please don’t push me, or we’ll end up right here on the ground.”
I brought my head up and leaned closer to him, whispering into his ear, “Out here, on the ground, we’ll be closer to the universe.”
His eyes seemed like they flared in the darkness before the driver’s door was opened and he turned, holding me to his body as he climbed out of the vehicle. Stepping to the back, he motioned with his head, and while still being held by him, I reached down and plucked the blanket from the seat.
Jagger marched away from the vehicle and around the back of the boulders, giving us some privacy from the road. I dropped the blanket onto the ground, and he reluctantly placed me on my feet without releasing his hold on me.
His lips pressed against mine as the kiss went from simple to frenzied in a matter of moments. We both began to make awkward movements to get to the blanket while still keeping our lips connected, and once I felt the hard ground under me and his weight on top of me, something shifted inside me.
I knew this was right, out here, under the stars, giving into our primal needs. And when he pushed up onto his knees and looked down at me, I knew we were being given a blessing from the ancestors. A moment in the busy modern world to connect on a level so basic and so old, there was no way this wasn’t meant to be.
Chapter 8
Jagger
Ididn’t plan our first time to be in the middle of a field, under a blanket of stars, but seeing her so enthralled with the night sky told me this was where it was meant to happen. Back at the bar, after Phantom went to check on her, I asked Roughstock if he and Cheyenne were coming back to the house after she sobered up, and he’d told me they were staying there tonight, so Jackie and I could have the house to ourselves. I was up and out of the clubhouse without another word, ready to take my woman back to a soft bed and fuck her until she screamed my name.
Needing to feel her soft skin against mine, I pushed up from our kiss and looked down at her. “Let’s get these boots off you.”
She nodded, and I grabbed the heels of her boots and tugged, feeling them slip off her feet. Dropping them to the ground, I noticed she had stretched the blanket out as much as possible with our weight still on it. She looked up at me as I stood and took my cut off, carefully resting it on a large boulder, making sure it wouldn’t fall to the ground. Turning back to her, I saw she’d removed her jacket and had it under her head. I slipped my boots off and kicked them to the side before I fell back to my knees between her open legs.
Moving over her, I rested my weight on my forearm as I brushed some hair from her forehead and asked, “Are you sure?”
Jackie pushed up to kiss me before replying, “I’ve never been more sure of anything in my life.”
“Thank fuck,” I responded and gripped the back of her neck as I guided us back to the ground.
