Ripple Effect (Effect 1) - Page 9

He stood and stretched. “Good. Maybe she’ll be able to get you out of your foul mood. Until she gets here, you might want to take a nap in your hidey-hole room back there. You’ve been snapping at everyone.”

I ignored his comment. “All the books are caught up, and I approved a new visitor for next Wednesday. His name is Tyler Helms, and he does not want an anonymous identity. He’s a junior partner at the law firm we use.”

We had the best law firm in town, S&P Associates, LLP.

“Good to know. I’m headed over to the bar side to make sure they’ve got everything they need. The Thrillhammers are playing again tonight, so the house should be packed.” Brandt began walking toward the door. “Take my advice, man. Go hide in your room.”

I had been a little short with him—well, with everyone today. He might have a point.

“Let me know if you need anything.”

“Will do.” With that, he left.

Maybe a quick nap before Ainsley got here would be good.

I walked back to my room where I stayed from time to time when I was at the club late and didn’t want to drive home. It had all the essentials—bed, dresser, closet, and bathroom. I had slept like shit last night, and I was exhausted. Some rest would do me good, so I wouldn’t be a dickhead to Ainsley. I fell face-first on the bed, and pictures of Ainsley from last night were the last things I remembered.

“Adam…”

Ainsley’s voice invaded my thoughts, but she wasn’t due here for a bit.

“Adam?”

The bed dipped, and I felt a small hand on my arm. It was Ainsley’s touch.

Hell, this is going to be the best dream I’ve had in ages.

“I’ll come back tomorrow. Sleep tight, Adam.”

Lips brushed my forehead and then the bed rose again. I heard footsteps.

Shit, she’s really here. I pushed off the bed and called out hoarsely, “Ainsley, wait.”

She stopped and turned. “It’s okay, Adam. I can come back later. You’re exhausted. You need your rest.”

I kept blinking the haze away. She was in white capris that hugged her slim figure, a tight blue T-shirt, and that damn pink wig.

Hot. As. Hell.

She played with the ring on her right finger. I was pretty sure that meant she was unsure of something.

Shit, I don’t want her to be unsure about staying with me.

I did the first thing that came to mind. I walked straight up to her and started kissing her. The small gasp right before my lips touched hers, told me she hadn’t expected me to come after her like this. Her body needed to take over her brain that was probably telling her that I didn’t care if she were here or not. That was the furthest thing from the truth. Her being here with me was all that I had thought about through the day.

Ainsley opened her mouth in shock, and I took advantage by pushing my tongue inside. By her rigid posture, I could tell she was still thinking with her brain. It was obvious when she let the moment take over. She became clay in my hands as her body took control. I needed her in that place, so she wouldn’t try to leave right now.

I need this. I want her.

My hand went beneath her shirt and grazed her nipple. The contact relaxed her. The moan that escaped her mouth as we kissed had me hard as a rock.

I pulled away from Ainsley and looked into her pale blue eyes that were piercing me. “I can’t wait, baby.”

“Please, hurry. I can’t wait either.”

We both began stripping in a mad dash. The sound of fabric tearing filled the room. I needed in her again. She shimmied out of her panties as I ditched my boxers. I closed the distance and reached for the snap of her bra in the back. I wanted to be the one to unveil her breasts. I was out of my mind, needing to have her right now. I pulled her bra off her body. Her breasts were perky and perfectly sized. I loved how her rose-colored nipples darkened in anticipation.

“Adam…”

Her plea spurred me to pick her up, and she wrapped her legs around my waist. I loved hearing my name leave her lips, sounding as if I were the air she needed to breathe. I raised her up high enough to bring her nipple to my mouth where I sucked it in hard, and she threw her head back. The moment we met the bed, I laid her down and spread her legs. My cock was about to be right where it was supposed to be—in Ainsley. Her eyes connected with mine as I barely pushed my cock in.

“You feel amazing, Ainsley.”

Her body went rigid, and her eyes went round. “Condom?”

Shit.

Shit.

Shit.

I pulled out immediately. “Fuck. I’m so fucking sorry, Ainsley. I never forget. Damn it.”

She was supposed to be able to trust me, so she wouldn’t have to worry about it but I’d screwed that up.

Breathlessly, she responded, “Get one. Hurry. Purse. Side Pocket.”

She was squirming beneath me, obviously needing an orgasm. I moved down her body and sucked her bud into my mouth. She was tight, warm, and ready. Massaging her walls with my fingers, I added the slightest bit of pressure to her clit with my tongue, which had her moaning in the sweetest way. Her eyes rolled to the back of her head as I gave her what she needed.

While she was coming down from her high, I went to get a condom from her purse. It seemed we both needed this. Rolling it on, I went straight back to that beautiful girl who had agreed to be exclusively mine. Taking my earlier position, I lined myself up and pushed inside her with a hard thrust. Ainsley moaned in response.

“Too much, sweetheart?”

“No. I need it fast, hard, rough.”

That was music to my ears. “You’ve got it.”

I began hammering into her over and over again. Loving how her pussy began to quiver around me, I twisted my hips.

Ainsley shook her head back and forth. “I’m so close, Adam. So close.”

Going all the way in three more times had us both calling out at the same time. The surge of raw power that came through me was magnificent. I felt territorial, like I needed to mark

her entire body with me. We had been desperate for each other. Pulling out and discarding the condom in the wastebasket beside the bed, I realized where we were.

My safe haven. My room. The place where I never brought women.

I’m losing my damn mind around this woman.

I turned back and saw Ainsley watching me with a shy smile on her face. The last thing I needed to do was become a dickhead because I had broken one of my rules. She hadn’t broken my rule.

Shit.

I moved back to Ainsley. I brought her closer to me as we lay facing each other on the bed, and her legs entwined with mine. This was what she needed, and I needed to provide it to her while this lasted. I was still shocked at myself because I never broke one of my rules. However, I maintained my even breathing, so she wouldn’t suspect that something was wrong with me.

I need a drink.

“I’m glad you decided to wake up from that deep sleep you were in.” She giggled.

I couldn’t help but smile at the sound. “Me, too. I was out of it. My damn phone was supposed to go off. What time is it?”

She looked at a delicate gold watch on her wrist. “It’s almost seven thirty. I was a few minutes late. My obligation ran long.”

I slowly trailed my hand up and down her arm. “Do you mind if I ask, what is the obligation you keep referring to?”

Ainsley lifted her head and looked at me. “Of course not. It’s how we’ll learn to trust each other in the club. I help watch Nora’s sister, Emilyn. Sometimes, Nora and her mother’s schedules overlap, so I offer to help watch Emilyn to save them money in sitters.”

“That’s nice of you. I’m sure they appreciate it.” I hoped this didn’t take away our time together. Shit, I’d look like a clingy bastard if I said anything.

“They do. They’re a wonderful family. Emilyn is seven, and she’s just precious. Did you have a long night last night? You seem tired.”

I scrubbed a hand down my face. “I didn’t sleep for shit. It happens from time to time.”

Glancing down at Ainsley, she was looking me over, watching me, as if she could see deep within me.
