Gina's Private Police Force [Men of Montana 3] (Siren Publishing Menage Amour) (10 page)

Sliding her eyes up to Jared’s face, she saw his smile before he spoke softly. “What was that for?”

“For being you,” she fibbed.

The skeptical look on his face indicated he knew she was lying. Lowering her eyes in shame, she fought the tears that came to her eyes, but also had to tamp down the fear that these men knew her too well.

“I’m sorry, Jared. I had a bad thought about you and Connor, judging you unfairly in my mind. The kiss was my way of apologizing in my mind,” she said, matching his near-whispered tone.

Flinching when his hand moved upward, afraid he was going to strike her, she quickly moved her gaze up to his face. What she saw surprised her. There was love and understanding there, not anger or ridicule. The tears she had tried to control a few moments before began to flow as his hand cradled her cheek in a gentleness she didn’t know a man could possess.

“I would never hurt you physically or mentally, Gina. Don’t ever think that we would. We’ll spank you when you need to be punished…”

“W–What do you mean p–punished?”

The smile on his face remained there as he held her face, his thumb running tantalizingly along her lips. “If you do something to put yourself or Nathan in danger, we will spank that luscious ass of yours. If you disobey us while in the privacy of our bedroom, you will be spanked. We will test your limits in the bedroom, but anything we do there will be in mutual agreement, but it will never be in anger. You will have to learn to trust us, just as we will learn to trust you, but we are dominant men. Sexually we will push you to accept the limits your body can take. You will enjoy them, I can tell. You will crave our bodies to please you, to fill your every hole. You will let us make love to your body whether it is with our mouths, our cocks, or even toys we may want to use. You will learn to crave the feel of the whip as it excites your tits and pussy until you want us to fill you up. Do you understand that?”

Naïve she wasn’t. She had read erotic novels related to BDSM and they had always excited her but when Frank had suggested it to her, she feared his anger issues would cause him to be too aggressive. She refused him, although he did get rough with her several times during sex, including the day Nathan was conceived. Slapping her face, he told her that as his wife he could take what he wanted from her. Could she put herself in that situation with another man? Or two? Trust, like he said, was going to be hard for her.

“I’m scared,” she whispered, leaning her face into his hand for comfort.

“Of what, sugar?”

“All the things you said you would do. I’m afraid you’ll get carried away and hurt me like…like before.” She choked back a sob.

“We will never do that. Connor and I are both trained Doms. We know how to control in the bedroom without inflicting harsh pain. We know how to inflict erotic pain, which you will come to enjoy and crave, but we will never, ever harm you like your husband did. We love you,” he said, the words mirroring the look in his eyes. Gentle, kind, and loving. “Will you trust us enough to try it?”

Searching his face for any dishonesty, something she couldn’t read on Frank, she saw none and she slowly nodded her head. Now that they knew her secrets, she couldn’t hide from them any more unless she was to leave again, but she knew they would come after her.

“I’ll put my trust in you,” she said softly, “but please be patient with me.”

Smiling at her, Jared nodded. “We will. I promise.”

His hand moved around to the back of her neck, under her hair, and he pulled her down so her head rested on his shoulder, just inches from Nathan’s blond head. Leaning over, she placed a kiss on his fine hair and then leaned up and placed a kiss on her man’s cheek before nuzzling into the crook of his shoulder and neck. A smile rested upon her lips as contentment filled her body and soul.

Their cuddle time was short lived. A few minutes passed and then the bundle on Jared’s chest began to squirm as he groggily woke.

The boy blinked several times before fully opening his blue eyes, which he seemed to have inherited from his mother. When he looked around and saw her, he looked at Jared and then back to Gina. Jared smiled as the boy laid his head back down on his chest and proceeded to slide his little arms down around his sides as much as he could to hug him. Looking over at Gina, Jared noticed the tears shimmering in her eyes as she was touched by the sight. This was going to work.

Gina lifted her hand and rubbed her son’s back lovingly before leaning over and kissing his sleep-rumpled hair. Jared took the opportunity to kiss the top of her head before pulling her closer to him.

Contentment flooded his body and soul. After the incident with his wife, he was certain he would be alone for the rest of his life, and he wasn’t sure if he would be able to trust another woman. This morning, he had woken loving Gina, but now, there was a child in his arms as well as his woman.

When Nathan began to squirm within his hold, Jared knew it was time to get up. He was certain Gina and Nathan were hungry.

Patting her on her cotton-clad ass, Jared said, “Let’s get up, sugar. We’ll cook some dinner and then relax in the living room with Nathan. Hopefully Connor will be home soon with some toys. Do you have any toys for him in the car?”

“I have a few,” Gina said, gathering the sheet up to her chest as she sat up. When he looked at her questionably, her eyes lowered shyly for a brief moment. “I can’t walk around in skimpy clothes in front of Nathan, you know.”

It was his turn to blush. “Sorry, babe. I didn’t think about that. We’ll have to work on that.”

Standing, Jared continued to hold Nathan in his arms. “I’ll get him changed. You get dressed and meet me in the kitchen. I know for a fact Connor doesn’t cook so we’ll have to rummage for food.”

“I’m sure I can find something to fix,” she said, waiting for him to leave.

Bending over, he grabbed up his jeans and headed for the door. As he started to turn the corner into the hall, he could see her face had become a crimson red and her eyes were hooded. He was certain she had been watching his ass when he had bent over. Winking at her before a wicked grin appeared on his face, he said, “I’ll take care of you later, sugar. For now, we all need to eat.”

Jared walked down the hallway to Angela’s old room and found the diaper bag sitting where it had been left. Lying Nathan on the bed, he tried to remove the boy’s pants, causing him to fuss. “None of that, little man,” Jared said smoothly with a smile. “There will be plenty of time for playing. We need to get you changed to look nice for dinner. Do you want to help me with dinner?”

Nathan giggled. “Dinna!”

“Yes. We are going to eat dinner and then we are going to play or watch TV.”

Nathan had settled down and let Jared change his diaper and his clothes. Jared dressed him in a one-piece fleece pajama set to keep him warm but he knew the house seemed pretty cozy as it was. Once he was finished, he picked up Nathan and swung him up into the air and received a heartfelt laugh from him. Doing it again, the boy continued to laugh and then asked for more. Repeating the action several more times before quitting, he hugged the little body afterward and turned to exit the room.

Finding Gina standing in the doorway watching him, her eyes twinkling while a look of astonishment filled her face, he stopped, fearing he had done something wrong. When a tear slid down her cheek, he stepped over and wiped it with his thumb. Raising said thumb to his lips, he suctioned it into his mouth, sucking the salty liquid away.

“Don’t cry, Gina. I won’t do it again,” he said lowly.

She shook her head as her eyes remained focused on his lips. “It’s not that. I just never thought I’d have someone in my life that would play with him like that. He sounds so happy.”

Slipping his arm around her shoulder, he pulled her in close, her head cradling his free shoulder. “Oh, sugar. We are going to make you happy, too. And now you have two men that will make both of you happy.”

A smile lit up his face as her arm slid around his naked waist, her breath against his skin. He groaned slightly as he felt all his blood sink straight to his cock. He felt her smile against his skin as he was still only wearing his briefs and he knew she felt it harden against her stomach.

“Sorry, baby. I need to get my pants on otherwise I’ll traumatize young Nathan. Can you take him into the living room for a moment,” he asked, tilting her head up to look into her lust-filled eyes.

The passion that lit up her eyes touched him as he knew that she was responsive to their ministrations, although they had to tread lightly with her because of her past. Also, because little eyes were very impressionable and he didn’t want to do anything to hurt the little boy that would be his son, they would have to conduct their more risqué love in a different location.

Before she could nod, he lowered his lips to hers, capturing them in a heated, though brief kiss. They both moaned in their throats as she splayed her hand lower on his back, her fingers just on the cusp of his ass. When a small hand touched his cheek, Jared broke the contact quickly, guilt consuming him.

Seeing the confused look in Gina’s face as she looked up at the abrupt break of contact, he passed Nathan off to her and turned away. They would really have to be careful with her.

Slipping on his jeans, he heard her walk away down the hallway and he sat on the bed. He had left the button and zipper undone giving his cock a moment to settle down before finishing. Leaning his elbows on his knees, he lowered his head into his hands. Perhaps this wasn’t going to work.

He knew kids were time consuming, but how did you go about being passionate around a woman with a child, let alone just being able to hold and kiss her? Was it because Nathan was jealous of the attention he was giving his mother, or was it because Gina had probably never brought home a man before around her son? He was so confused at the moment. He’d have to talk to Connor when he got home.

Not sure how much time had passed as he sat there thinking, he heard a noise at the door and looked up, expecting to see Gina standing there. He was surprised to find Nathan crawling awkwardly, yet with speed, into the room. When the young one arrived at Jared’s feet, he leaned up on his knees and held his arms up to be picked up. Lying back on the bed quickly, Jared fastened his jeans.

Leaning over, he reached down and picked up the little boy and held him up in the air. Nathan smiled and then laughed, proving he was a happy, normal little boy. Jared brought him back down to his hip and Nathan again repeated the motion he had when he had kissed Gina by placing his hand on his cheek.

Leaning back a bit, Jared looked down into the boy’s face, trying to figure out what he was doing and realized Nathan was trying to feel his five o’clock shadow. Leaning down further, he rubbed his face against the soft cheek several times, reveling in the giggles that erupted from him.

God, he couldn’t believe he had jumped to such a wild conclusion, although they would have to be careful with a young one in the house.

Walking down the hall, the duo emerged in the living room and Jared found it empty. Wondering where Gina was, he backtracked to the kitchen and found her reading the directions on a box of pasta. The room was already heating up from the oven she had turned on and he noticed the package of frozen chicken on the counter next to the stove.

Leaning against the doorframe, he watched her. She set the box down and ripped open the bag of chicken and placed the pieces in a glass baking dish. Turning around, she opened the fridge and looked for something. Reaching in, she pulled out a bottle of barbecue sauce, shaking it as she did. Setting it next to the dish, she reached across the island for the salt and pepper and seasoned the meat before pouring the sauce on it.

* * * *

The eeriness of someone watching her was overwhelming. Glancing up she found Nathan in the arms of Jared, both of them watching her. Her heart soared when she noticed the little arms wrapped around the muscle-corded neck of the man she was trusting her life to. Smiling shyly, she motioned to the chicken. “I hope this is okay with you. It’s all I could find in Connor’s freezer. He really needs to go shopping.”

“It’s fine,” he said, stepping over to her, “and the statement is,
we have to go shopping
. We’ll go in the morning and load up the kitchen with foods you both like. I’m sure Nathan here would like lots of spinach and broccoli.”

As if gauging Nathan’s perception, he looked down at his small face and saw the cringe that went through him at the mention of the two dreaded vegetables all kids seemed to hate at that age. A hearty laugh burst out of Jared, resonating through the room. It was a contagious laugh welcoming Gina to join in and then Nathan. Again his little hand moved up to Jared’s jawline, which warmed his mother’s heart.

Hazel eyes met her blue ones with a fire that streaked right through her. She felt her nipples pucker and harden and then her cunt moistened, releasing its fluid onto the barrier of panties within her jeans. The heat from embarrassment warmed her from head to toe as he sniffed the air, and she was certain he didn’t smell anything but her arousal.

“Connor is going to enjoy what’s on the menu tonight also,” he said, burying his lips into her neck right beneath her ear and kissing her there. Then raising his head just inches, she felt his breath at the opening to her ear, and the raspy sound of his whispered voice, “And so will I” sent a shiver through her whole body.
