Sage's Story (The Town of Pearl 5)

“I can’t wait to make love to you, Sage. You have no idea how crazy I feel right now.”

She reached for him and pressed her body against his as she hugged him.

“I do. I do know how you feel. I’m shaking I need you so badly. This can’t be normal. To love you guys so much, so soon. But I do. I love you, Virgo.”

He squeezed her tight and carried her into the shower. He couldn’t spe

ak. He couldn’t say a word right now because the emotions were so strong, so deep, he thought he could actually cry. What a fucking sissy thing to show the woman he loved.

They stepped under the spray and he pressed her against the shower wall. Her legs tightened against his sides, as she straddled his hips.

“Virgo? Are you okay?” she asked him. She cupped his cheeks when he wouldn’t look at her, and she forced him to lock gazes with her. When she did, he knew she could see the emotion, the love in his eyes. Hell, he was grateful they were in the shower in case he did break down and cry. He loved her that fucking much.

“Oh, Virgo. I know. It’s okay. I know. Just make love to me. I need you inside of me. It’s what we both need.”

He was grateful she was so perfect. He adored her compassion, her understanding, and her honesty. She didn’t force the issue or make him bare his soul and he loved her more for that.

He eased back, aligned his cock with her pussy as he held her gaze, and stroked slowly into her. “I love you, Sage. Always.” He covered her mouth and kissed her deeply, as he made love to her in the shower. Sage gripped his shoulders as their lips parted, and she countered his thrusts. Slowly, deeply they made love, holding one another’s gazes, as the water cascaded over their bodies. Her breasts pressed against his chest and he used his hands to hold her in place by her ass cheeks as he lowered deeper, sinking further into her depths. Sage moaned and grunted, then closed her eyes and gasped, as she tightened on his cock and then exploded with orgasm. He sunk somehow further, deeper into her, rubbing against her inner muscles as he followed with his own climax.

He hugged her tight and then kissed her again. There was no need for words. He showed and poured all his emotions into her just as she did with him.

Matt walked into the bedroom after speaking with Dale and Quaid about their time with Sage and update on her injuries and state of mind. He knew she was worried about Amanda, and he didn’t want to give her false hope that this raid the feds were doing could save some women’s lives. He needed to focus on Sage and the fact that he had the opportunity to love her and hold her in his arms forever. Other men, other people lost that chance because of these ruthless, slimeball men and their exploitation of innocent women.

He immediately thought about the files he saw. The ones Mark shared with him on the not-so-lucky women who didn’t survive. The things they did, the types of locations and men they were sent to were horrific. It made him wonder why the government couldn’t just illuminate men like these. Why they deserved lawyers and the legal system, he couldn’t understand. All he knew was that he wanted the ones who took Sage. He wanted them charged or dead, and if he could accomplish that himself without getting caught, he’d do it.

“Hey, what’s going on? Any updates?” Virgo asked as he exited the bathroom alone. Matt thought that Sage was with him. That was what Quaid and Dale told him.

“Where’s Sage?” he asked, stepping closer.

“She’s okay. She’s drying her hair,” Quaid said, squinting at Matt. “Are you okay?”

Matt ran his fingers through his hair and exhaled. “Fuck no. But I have to be. I just need to see her and hold her.”

“I know exactly what you mean. She was with Dale and Quaid when I hurried home to be with her, hoping she wasn’t still sleeping.”

“I heard. They told me about making love to her together. That makes me really happy.”

“Me, too. You should go be with her. We’ll call you if the department calls with any updates.”

“You’ll probably hear from Wyatt. I’m expecting a call from Agent Santos. They’ve got a location on the guys who took some of these women. Supposedly surveillance shows about ten women or so held up in a warehouse in Houston. The feds are on it and about to raid.”

“Oh God, is Amanda there? Is she okay?” Sage asked as she entered the room wearing one of Virgo’s T-shirts. It fell to her knees, and she looked so damn sexy.

“We don’t know, baby.”

She immediately walked toward him and hugged him. He looked at Virgo who smiled. Virgo placed his hand on his shoulder.

“Just love her and be with her. It makes a difference.” He walked from the room and Matt ran his hands along Sage’s body. He caressed under the shirt to her ass and felt his cock harden with need.

She kissed his chest despite the fact he still wore his dress shirt and dress pants.

As she reached his chin and then stood on tiptoes to kiss his lips, he grabbed her tighter and kissed her hard on the mouth. All his emotions, all the words that went through his head that he wanted to say and tell her, disappeared. She made quick work with her hands understanding his need, and obviously feeling it, too. She shoved his pants and boxers down, and gripped his cock. He pulled from her mouth. “Fuck.”

He lifted her up, causing her to release her hold on his cock, and then she gripped his shirt.

“I know you’re mad. I know that you’re probably upset with me for leaving you and almost getting taken. I know that you probably have access to everything that’s going on, too. I can see it in your eyes, Matt. But don’t let it come between us. I need you so badly, Matt. I could have lost ever loving any of you again.” She tossed his shirt away and he pulled hers up and off of her as he lowered her not so gently to the bed. Their bodies crushed against one another.
