Summary: Steph and Ranger have a very bitter disagreement and then make up in a rather primal way. Also, Ranger is being a bit of an arrogant jerk, but don't worry, it's all good. BABE.
Warning: Smut. This story contains graphic and rough sex. It's all consensual though, and no-one gets hurt. At least not in a bad way…:)
Disclaimer: Not mine, believe me, I'd know if they were.

Chapter 2 – Carnal

I was pacing back and forth in my apartment: kitchen, living room, bedroom. Rex watched me, amused, whiskers twitching every time I came into his view. I had just called Ranger and asked him to come over and now I was nervous. I didn't know what was going to happen, but I knew what I wanted to happen. I wanted him to admit to his feelings for me and come to his senses regarding the no relationship rule.
It had been two weeks since my encounter with Ranger and I hadn't seen him since. Joe was still furious with me, and I was still furious with Ranger. But I'd had two weeks to come to terms with my feelings and had realized that my anger towards Ranger was probably more due to his inability to recognize his feelings for me, than the fact that he had managed to break up me and Joe. Secretly, I was happy for the breakup. Even though I had decided to make it work with Joe, the thought of being his housewife scared me half to death. Every time I thought about us marrying I started to hyperventilate and had to sit down. But a life with Ranger, on the other hand, didn't frighten me half as much. When I explored that thought, I always ended up with a smile on my lips. Turns out maybe Ranger did me a favor after all, and for some reason that frustrated the hell out of me. I was still a little pissed at him for having the nerve to poach when I was clearly spoken for, but I'd decided I'd allow him to do some serious groveling later. Yeah, like that was going to happen.
As much as I didn't want to be a housewife for Morelli, I also didn't want to play along with Ranger's game of empty flirtation. I loved Ranger, I was furious with him. But most of all, I wanted him. I wanted him more than I'd ever wanted anything else. And I was going to get him. The stupid no relationship rule was going to bite the dust, courtesy of Stephanie Plum, seductress extraordinaire.
I had finally made up my mind and now all I had to do was get my man. Easier said than done when the man in question is a stubborn fool, but hey, I could do stubborn just as well as he could. Maybe even better.
Which leads me to why I was currently pacing in my apartment. Ranger was on his way and would be here any minute now. I tried to channel my inner sex goddess and took a deep breath. "You can do this Steph, it's only Ranger." I tried to assure myself. I needed a plan. Make Ranger realize he can't live without me. Yeah, that was it. Simple, easy to remember. I was pacing and mumbling to myself, acting generally insane when I heard him.
"You talking to yourself now?"
I must have jumped several feet in the air. "Shit, make some noise, will you! You scared the crap out of me."
"Babe."
"Yeah I know. I need to be more aware of my surroundings… And I would be if you made some noise. How am I supposed to be aware of you when you move like that?"
Ranger just looked mildly amused and sat down in the armchair in my living room.
"You called?" he asked.
He was obviously not going to make this easy for me, so I decided to jump right in. After all, my master plan was rather simple, and we all know offense is the best defense.
"So, you got what you wanted. I'm single again. What you gonna do about it?"
I think I caught Ranger off guard for once. The blank mask seemed to fail him, and he looked genuinely surprised, and not a little uneasy.
"What do you mean?"
"Well, you obviously managed to get your will and break me and Joe up. What's the next step in this plan of yours?"
"What are you talking about?" he asked again. If I didn't know better I'd say Ranger was stalling for time.
"Well, I assumed you want me for yourself, since no-one else get to have me. I thought you wanted a relationship this time." I paused for effect. "'Or did you just plan to fuck me and leave me again? You sure have that one down to a fine art."
I thought I saw a fleeting look of hurt on his face at that comment.
"Stephanie, Babe, you know what my life is like." he said, sounding distinctly pained. He was sitting in the armchair, leaning forward, elbows on his knees. "I can't fit a relationship into my life, it's just too dangerous."
He looked surprisingly vulnerable, and I felt a tug at my heart. I really loved this man, but he just couldn't seem to get his head out off his ass. I walked over from my place on the couch and kneeled in front of him.
"You know I'm perfectly capable of attracting my own stalkers. At any rate I'd be safer with you than I am on my own. If I'm with you, you'll protect me."
"I can't."
I felt the rage begin to boil inside of me at his stubbornness. I really just wanted to scream at him and run away, but I knew that wouldn't get me anywhere. I decided to put my feelings into more productive use. So I leaned up and kissed him. Hard and passionately.
It took him completely by surprise, but in true Batman fashion, he was quick to recover. In a matter of seconds, he was kissing me back, full force. I felt the effects of the kiss in every cell of my body. My nipples stood at attention and soon became almost painfully hard. I felt the dampness between my legs and realized I needed him badly, but first, I wanted him to need me just as badly. I wanted him to beg for it.
He grabbed my arms and made to stand up, undoubtedly to move us to the bedroom. But instead of letting him, I pushed him forcefully back into the chair. He looked a little surprised at my dominant behavior.
"Babe?"
I remained kneeling and reached forward to the very obvious bulge in his cargos. I grabbed him over his pants and stroke him roughly, making him groan and thrust into my hand. As I continued to manipulate his very impressive hard on through his pants, I used my other hand to press firmly against his chest, making it very clear to him that he was to stay seated.
After making sure he wasn't going to interrupt my explorations, I quickly unfastened his cargos and tugged at them, motioning for him to lift his hips. After disposing of the cargos, his shoes and socks, and finding out that he did indeed go commando, I stood up and pulled his shirt over his head. I had to stop for a second at the sight that was in front of me. Ranger completely naked in my chair, looking up at me with lust written all over his face, a massive erection between his legs. And me, fully clothed, and for once, completely in control.
Ranger had enough of my staring and growled, reaching out for me. I swatted his hand away and kneeled down in front of him again. I smiled up at him and leaned forward, slowly licking him, all the way from the base of his cock to the head. He drew a sharp breath and his hips lifted from the chair as of their own command. I continued to lick in circles around the head, making him squirm. Suddenly I took him inside of my mouth, as far as I could. He let out a surprised sound and his hands came up to my head. He grabbed fisted my hair and pushed me further down on him. I immediately stopped.
"Babe" he groaned. "Don't stop."
I grabbed his hands and placed them on the arm rests, pressing down lightly in a signal not to move his hands.
"If you touch me, I stop. If you move your hands, I stop. It's up to you."
"Not fair Babe." he said, but leaving his hands on the arm rests.
I smiled at him and leaned down to resume my explorations. I continued to lick him, alternating between long firm strokes along his length, and small, rapid licks at the underside of the head. His knuckles were turning white with his gripping the arm rests so hard. He was squirming and gasping, trying not to lose control. I sucked him into my mouth, trying to swallow all of him and wrapped my hand around what I couldn't fit into my mouth. He gasped at that and in the corner of my eye I saw him lifting his hand towards my head, stopping himself just in time and grabbing the arm rest again.
"Holy shit, Babe. Steph, please don't stop."
Going down on him, sucking him and generally mimicking the sex act was quickly getting to me, and I felt myself become more turned on by the minute, my panties soaked. I could feel him getting closer, so I stopped and stood up.
"Babe." He groaned, sending me a tortured look.
I quickly removed my jeans and panties and climbed on top of him in the chair, straddling his lap. He immediately grabbed my hips, pulling me down hard while lifting his hips, entering me fast and hard, making my breath catch at the intense jolt of pleasure.
"Chirst, Babe, you're wet."
I used my thigh and pelvic muscles to move up and down in small circles, making both of us pant. Ranger's hands came up and he started to take of my shirt, pulling it over my head. It momentarily caught at my head, capturing my hands above my head and sending me into blindness. Ranger chose that exact moment to suck on of my nipples into his mouth, biting down, the slight pain and my trapped hands making my body throb with burning pleasure.
I finally managed to get my hands free from the T-shirt and ran them through his hair, grabbing fistfuls and pulling his head against me, pressing his mouth more firmly against my breast. He took my hint and alternated sucking hard and biting and nibbling on my breasts and nipples, the pain and pleasure making my body pulsate.
I increased my pace in his lap, taking him deeper and harder at every downward motion. I could feel Ranger's hands digging into the flesh at my back, and I could feel his nails leaving crescent shaped marks where they dug into my skin. He brought one of his hands to my front and reaching down, found my clit and pinched it roughly. I screamed at the sudden shock to my senses. The heat of the impending orgasm was racing through me, making me acutely aware of every single nerve in my body. Ranger kept up his fierce assault, never slowing down enough to let me gain some control of the tumult that my mind and body was in.
My limbs grew numb as I finally reached that point where everything else fades away and the only thing you are aware of is the all-consuming, piercing pleasure that takes over your body. I couldn't think, couldn't breathe. The only thing I could do was feel the brutal strength of the orgasm ripping through me, making my blood boil. I screamed in intense pleasure, arching my back, pressing my nipple harder into Ranger's mouth, almost pleading him to bite harder. He obeyed and sent me literally flying. I couldn't tell were I ended and Ranger started. I thought I heard Ranger scream my name as he came inside of me, but given the strength of my orgasm, it could have been anything. He kept up his onslaught to my clit and nipples until my orgasm reached it's end, finally giving me opportunity to gather myself after the tremendous battery on my senses. We were panting, lying in a heap on the armchair, our arms around each other, aftershocks making me shiver.
When I was finally able to talk again I decided Ranger had had enough of a respite from my plan to make him mine.
"So, you really don't mind me dating other people then, do you?"
Odd thing to say when you're still glowing from a recent, and I might add fantastic, orgasm, you think? Ranger was certainly surprised. I could tell that wasn't what he wanted to hear right know, but he quickly pulled himself together.
"No I don't mind, not at all. Be my guest."
"Good, because I have a date tomorrow." I said, watching him closely for a reaction. "Of course I wouldn't go if you and I were an item, but since that's obviously not the case…"
"No" he said, through gritted teeth. "Have fun."
Turns out Ranger is really easy to read if you know what to look for. And right now I could tell by the small lines that appeared next to his eyes and the muscle working in his jaw, that he didn't at all like what I'd just said. Good. Now all I needed to do was find a date for tomorrow.
