“Let me in, baby. I need to be inside you.” His rigid cock found its way between her legs, seeking her heat, and she felt hot moisture gush from her cunt. “You’re so wet, so welcoming. Please, sweetheart, fuck me. Don’t make me wait any longer.”
“Yes, Master. You have to know I want you as much as you want me.” She rotated her hips, taking him in just a little then moving away only to come back and impale herself. It felt so good, the closeness as much as the erotic sensations coursing through her body. He felt incredible, hot and hard and so big he stretched her inner muscles almost beyond pleasure. “I love the way you fill me.”
“You feel like heaven and hell, so tight and wet. God, baby, I don’t know how I got along before. Oh yeah, squeeze my cock. Like that.” When she did, he let out a groan that came from deep in his muscular chest, reminding her of the low-pitched rumbling of a fierce jungle cat. “Let me feel you coming.”
When she heard his hoarse plea, her muscles clenched deep in her belly. Delicious sensations coursed along her nerve endings, even to the ends of her fingers and toes. When her inner muscles clamped down on his swollen cock he let out another groan and came—long, staccato bursts of heat that bathed her in ecstasy like she’d never felt before.
Afterward she lay in his arms, their sweaty bodies still joined as their breathing slowed. Slowly, when her brain began to function again, she realized the cats had joined them.
“One big, happy family,” Sid said sleepily as he stroked Victoria with one hand while Talia petted Vanessa. He looked at Talia and smiled. “You know, we may be adding to our family sooner than we thought.”
“We’re going to go pick out a dog soon?” Good thing she shared Sid’s love for animals, Talia thought as she smiled back at him.
“That, too, sweetheart.” When he raised one brow and shot a self-satisfied grin her way, she got the double entendre.
Strangely, the thought that they’d risked an unplanned pregnancy didn’t scare her the way it would have a few weeks earlier. For once in her life she felt confident—certain of her Master’s love, but more important, sure of her own self-worth. “I hope you won’t mind if you’re right.”
Sid laid a hand on her belly and she reached over to hold him there. “Whenever it happens, sweetheart, I’ll be thrilled. Right now I’m satisfied with you and our two feline buddies.”
“So am I.” Less than two months ago she’d come here a physical and emotional wreck, but now Talia felt she could climb a mountain as long as she had Sid by her side.
She had no more fear. No worries. Her Master had given her the forever kind of love she’d once thought didn’t exist, the kind where he’d shown her how to reach out, claim and give back in equal measure.
Epilogue
The following summer at Rebels’ Roost
Family night. Sid had promised her a long time ago that he’d bring her to the next one, and now they were here. Talia guessed at least a hundred people—players and significant others—must be milling around the buffet tables and on the patio, apparently happy to be seeing old friends for the first time since the Rebels had lost in the playoffs.
She saw a few women she knew, Julie Bronson and Susan Zanardi, laughing with their husbands as they showed off their babies to anybody who would stop and look.
Tawny was there with Jack, looking relaxed as they spoke with the two of Sid’s teammates who’d been playing together in the dungeon that night before the playoff game. Neither of them had brought along a wife or girlfriend, Talia noticed.
She looked around some more then turned to Sid. “I don’t see Keisha Harris. Isn’t that her…her slave, over there?”
“Yeah, that’s Matt. He told me yesterday when we were working out in the weight room that she’s in the hospital. He found her passed out at home when he got home from minicamp the other day.”
“Oh, no. I hope it’s nothing serious.” Talia liked the brash Domme, admired her smarts and her football savvy.
Sid smoothed the windblown hair out of Talia’s eyes. “It looks like it may rain, sweetheart. What say we get out of here and go home?”
As always, her skin got hot when he looked at her in that incredibly sexy way. “I’m ready.” She was always ready for whatever Sid had in mind. He’d made her the happiest she’d ever been, and it just kept getting better.
The End
About the Author
Ann Jacobs is a sucker for lusty Alpha heroes and happy endings, which makes Ellora’s Cave an ideal publisher for her work. Romantica®, to her, is the perfect combination of sex, sensuality, deep emotional involvement and lifelong commitment—the elusive fantasy women often dream about but seldom achieve.
First published in 1996, Jacobs has sold over forty books and novellas, some of which have earned awards including the Passionate Plume (best novella, 2006), the Desert Rose (best hot and spicy romance, 2004) and More Than Magic (best erotic romance, 2004). She has been a double finalist in separate categories of the EPPIES and From the Heart RWA Chapter’s contest. Three of her books have been translated and sold in several European countries.
A CPA and former hospital financial manager, Jacobs now writes full-time, with the help of Mr. Blue, the family cat who sometimes likes to perch on the back of her desk chair and lend his sage advice. He sometimes even contributes a few random letters when he decides he wants to try out the keyboard. She loves to hear from readers, and to put faces with names at signings and conventions.
Ann welcomes comments from readers. You can find her website and email address on her author bio page at www.ellorascave.com.
