Nothing about this seemed like a plausible, good
way to live. How long were they supposed to do hide out? Forever?

“They’ll find us eventually, if they really want
to.” Greiff gave voice to her deepest fear.

Lucky nodded. “Yeah, but we’re going to keep you
guys undercover as long as we can. We have to get all the info possible so we
can take them down.”

The driver of the SUV honked the horn and Lucky
held up two fingers.

“Go now, while you can. You’ll be okay.”

The ocean air sent his blond hair into a spiky,
ruffled mess.

Greiff sighed and met her eye. “You ready?”

She felt like he was asking her more than that. A
deeper question about forever, and chances, and if she knew of a better option.

She didn’t, so she nodded. As long as they stayed
together, they’d be okay.

The ten foot walk to the car took forever and yet
no time at all. A knot clenched her stomach long after the silent driver
dropped them off at an airfield and they’d taken off in a tiny puddle jumper
airplane. The vast evergreen forests stretched beneath them. The pilot, like
the driver of the SUV, never spoke.

When they landed, he handed Greiff an envelope and
a set of keys.

The knot didn’t go away until two days later, when
they drove up a half over grown track that reached a small log cabin in the
woods.

Epilogue

Somewhere in the Rocky Mountains of British
Columbia, Canada, three months later.

 

Firelight flickered over the rustic, log-cabin
interior. Chloe poked the embers and a shower of sparks cascaded to the stones
in front of the fireplace. She’d thought she’d miss the noise and lights of New
York City, but the wilderness proved to be a great place to live when the water
didn’t change your physiology at the genetic level. Snow blanketed the ground
and trees outside. Even this far out in the woods, they had the Internet
through a special satellite, and with it, a way to engage in e-commerce. A
small but tidy living to help pay for the things they couldn’t scavenge or hunt
for. Plus, she still really liked to buy soap. Living off the land enthusiasm
only went so far despite the ridiculously long ride into the nearest town.

Thank goodness Greiff didn’t mind hunting to
supplement their food.

They had their fights, and adjusting to living
together had taken some time, but the fury she’d expected him to direct at her
for their circumstances never materialized. He accepted her, and everything
about his demeanor pointed to a very happy and contented man.

Cold air rushed into the room, and he clomped
across the floor with an armload of firewood. He tossed his gloves aside and
coaxed her into standing. Love and desire filled his blue eyes.

“Did you take care of the cheesecake?” She placed
her hands on his chest and held him at arm’s length. He’d promised to order it
while she took a nap.

He bit her lip and slid his hands under her shirt.

“Jake.” He caressed the hard peaks of her nipples,
slipped his thumbs beneath the satin of her bra, and connected with bare flesh.
She sucked in a breath and arched her back to give him more access. He moaned
and popped the front closure on her bra with one hand. “Cheesecake?”

“Ordered, just like every other week.” Hot kisses
rained down on her jaw line and then he sucked on the soft flesh of her neck.

“Did you take care of things for Dyson? He put
himself on the line for us, helping us.”

He closed his mouth over her breast through her
shirt. “Yes. Stop worrying.”

“Have you heard from your sister lately? Any news
on Lucky?” She gripped his hair and exerted enough force to divert him from his
current focus. Even if it did feel amazing.

“Yes and no. Sister’s fine. Lucky is still off the
grid completely. Dyson is working on it, said he’d know more by the end of the
week.”

Nothing she could do about Lucky but worry and
hope he was okay. She’d adopted an attitude of enjoying every moment like it
was the last. Despite the appearance of safety they enjoyed, she knew it could
all come to an end any time. She closed her grip over the bulge in his pants. “Mmm…well
then, let’s take this to the bedroom, sir.”

He smoothed his hand over the tiny bump in her
belly. “You’re not feeling too sick?”

“Nope. No morning sickness. I think I finally
kicked it. Thank goodness that didn’t last long.” She guided his hand back to
her breast. “Come on now, you got me all hot and bothered. Don’t leave me
hanging.”

He brought her left hand to his mouth and kissed
it. “I love you.”

“Love you too.” She propelled him into the bedroom
and laughed at the expression on his face when he saw the silk scarves hung
from the bed posts. Affection and warmth pooled in her chest. “Hey, remember
what you said all those months ago in the sewer?”

The down jacket he’d worn outside fell to the
floor and he toed off his boots. “Hell yes.”

She threw her heavy wool sweater aside along with
her pants. The cold didn’t bother her like it used to, and she shucked her socks
as well. For a moment, she used her ability to fade from sight while his back
was turned and raced around to the other side of the bed. Practicing in the
cold of British Columbia had sharpened her skills so that she could remain
hidden while engaged in fast movements across the room. Even from Greiff. He
didn’t like it, but he acknowledged that growing her abilities was a good
thing. She secretly thought he worried too much.

“I can still smell you, you know.” A grin flashed across
his face, the candles in the room created plays of shadow and light in the
hollows of his muscles. He crawled onto the bed and waited on his knees. “But
I’ll play along.”

She tackled him onto his back and pinned his
wrists. Their mouths met, lips and tongues hot on each other. Wetness slicked
her pussy and she ground herself over his hard length. She broke away from him
and tied first one wrist, then the other.

Exploring his chest and abdomen, she licked the
line where his thigh and groin met. He lifted his hips, a silent plea for more.
With one hand, she gripped the base of his shaft and circled the head of his
cock with her tongue. She took him in her mouth and pumped him with her grip.

She backed off and sat back on her shins when he
neared orgasm.

“Come up here. I want to lick that pretty pink
pussy.” Desire darkened his blue irises, his mouth slack and lips open.

She parted her pussy lips and teased her clit
while he watched. “And if I say no?”

“You won’t.” He flicked his tongue over his lower
lip and shifted on the bed. “Come here.”

She climbed over his body, slow, sinuous, so her
nipples grazed his chest and face. Once she settled with a knee on either side
of his head, she lowered down until the hot touch of his tongue lapped at her
hood.

The head board dug into her palms. He sucked at
her clit, delved his tongue inside, then back out again over her smooth lips.
Orgasm built and pooled in her belly until she bucked against him as she came.

Her legs trembled and she flopped to the mattress.
She rolled over and kissed him, the flavor of her release on his tongue. Each
erotic stroke helped fuel her hunger for the fulfillment of his cock stretching
her, joining them together.

She crouched next to his hip and teased him with
her mouth once more, palming his testicles as she licked her way up and down
his thick shaft. He bucked his hips and bent his legs in frustration, and she
swung her leg over him and slid down until their bodies joined completely with
her back to him.

From this angle she was able to fondle his balls
as she rode him, and she dragged it out. Each up and down stroke lasted as long
as she could make it.

“Oh, God, baby, please. That feels incredible. You
feel incredible.”

A peek over her shoulder revealed his eyes
half-lidded in pleasure and lines creasing his forehead. She paused her
movements and pinched her nipples. He couldn’t see exactly what she did, but he
knew.

“Do you like this?”

“Oh yeah.” Another slow slide up until the head of
his cock popped out. She moved back down so his shaft parted her pussy and
bumped over her clit. He groaned and squirmed. “Baby, please.”

“No. Not yet.” Another teasing glide took his hard
length across her nub.

He twisted his left wrist, then his right and
freed them from the scarves. “I need to be inside your tight little pussy.”

In a few swift moves, he sat up behind her and caught
her around the waist. He repositioned himself on his knees behind her, used the
palm of his right hand to guide her down onto her hands. Chloe held her breath.
The nudge of his cock at her entrance was a delicious taunt. “I think I’ve had
enough teasing for today, doll.”

With one fast thrust, he entered her wet channel. The
slap of their flesh meeting filled her ears, and she met him with a backward
motion of her own. A simple change of angle and he rubbed over her G-spot. The
friction wrung another orgasm from her.

“Jake…yes…” Her arms went weak, and he plunged
into her a few more times until he grunted and emptied his cum inside her.

He gripped her waist with both hands as he
recovered enough to withdraw, and then moved aside so she could relax and lay
down.

A quick tug and a few fidgets later they snuggled
together under the blankets. She kissed his chest and he tightened his arm
around her waist. The bump in her belly hiding the tiny heart fluttering with
life called to her. She rested her hand on it, and he moved back enough to angle
his own palm to cover hers, protecting their baby.

Someday they might have to move from their haven
in the wilderness, but for now, peace surrounded them.
