Chapter Ten

Natalie began to stir as she laid in her bed, a huge smile on her face, she thought she had to be dreaming cause the images in her head were too damn good to be true, they had made love throughout the night and she honestly never thought she would feel this way..

"goodmorning" she felt him brush her hair from her face and her eyes opened, he was leaning on one arm just looking at her, a soft smile on his face..

"a very good morning" she said with a rested sigh.."I had the best dream" she looked at him..

"Oh yeah and what was that" he played with her hand between his fingers..

"that we made love all night and it was absolutely amazing" she smiled at him..

"well then we both had the same dream" he finished as he leaned down and took her mouth in a soft kiss and then he slowly pulled back, she pouted at the loss of contact..He grinned at her.."you will be the death of me Natalie"

"its a good way to go" she grinned and then pulled his mouth onto hers, she couldnt believe how much she ached for his body, it was this uncontrollable urge to feel him take her, his strong arms, his legs, his ass, the way his cock filled her body, he pulled back again..

He was breathless as he looked at her, seriously he wanted nothing more than to ravage her again and again.."your body needs to recover" he said seriously as he looked at her..

"My body feels just fine" she grinned and he sat up now and she sighed.."no fair"

"In moderation" he laughed as he got up and she sat up, looking at his gorgeous naked body, she felt like she was in a trance.."believe me if i could i would keep you in this bed for days" he looked at her and playfully rolled his eyes as he saw her checking him out, he pulled up with pants and she pouted some..

"i think days at a time sounds wonderful" she fell back in the bed, she could still feel him touching her, she wondered if that feeling would ever go away..

"first things first, we need food, or atleast i need food" he grinned at her as he looked for his shirt..

"looking for something" she grinned at him as he looked up at she was on her knees naked on the bed, his shirt in her hands, he bit back a groan, she was absolutely beautiful, all of her..

"ah playing dirty" he grinned as he walked over and she moved on the bed some making him have to climb on to get her.."you know you cant win" he growled as he pinned her down on the bed and she gasped..

"maybe i dont wanna win" she said as he took her mouth aggressively, he was just about to yank his pants back off and claim defeat when his phone began ringing, he pulled his mouth from hers.."ah bad timing" she sighed as he sat up..

"hang on it may be important, last night something happened with Scott" he began to say as he looked at his phone, he didnt recognize the number but he answered..

"Hello its John" he said into the phone..

Natalie had almost forgotten about last night, about how he had gone to the party, with all the drama that ensued between them she had never asked him what happened, but apparently something had, something big, she wondered what..

"Jonathon, Scott has told me wonderful things about you, my name is Carlo and i have a few things i would like to discuss with you" John felt his pulse race, it was the man himself on the phone, what were the odds, he looked at Natalie, gesturing that it was Carlo and her eyes got wide as she sat up..

"carlo let me start off by saying what an absolute pleasure it is to finally meet you" John began in his most charming voice..

"i wish i could say the same thing but im a little upset, Scott told me about this wonderful new pet of yours, red is her name" he began and John swallowed hard, after spending the night with natalie he definitely was having second thoughts about handing her over to this mad man, even if it was for the case.."you didnt bring her last night, i do hope her cold is better"

"Much better now" John said as he looked at Natalie.."I would love to meet up with you and maybe we could discuss things further"

"thats what i like to hear and do bring Red, i always like to try out my merchandise before hand" John didnt like the way he talked about her, it made him feel sick to his stomach..

"well i was hoping we could have a private meeting first" John began..

"bring her or dont come at all" Carlo said in a loud tone..

"understood" John bit his tongue..

"good, im having dinner on my boat tonight, please join me, i will be taking off from the Lanview docks at 7pm"

"then i will be there,...with Red" John said as he looked at her and her eyes got wide, this was really happening, like tonight..

John hung up the phone and sighed as he ran his hand through his hair, Natalie could see the stress in his face, he was worried..

"You know its gonna be fine, this is what we worked up to right" she tried to be reassuring and he looked at her..

"this guy is a sick mother fucker, pardon my french" he said quickly, he definitely was having an internal battle, he didnt want to have her involved with this now, not after last night, too much had happened.."he wants us to meet him tonight" he said low, worry consuming his voice as he stood up and put on his shirt..

"you know nothing has changed John, i can still do this" she said positively..

"Im glad you feel so good about this, i dont" he said as he rubbed his neck..She got up off the bed and moved behind him, she put her hands on his neck and massaged it as he sighed.."im not leaving you alone with him" he said seriously as she rubbed his neck..

"John i can take care of myself" she said low and he turned to face her, taking her face in his hands..

"for the first time in my life i have something to lose and if something happened to you" his sweet words touched her and she smiled at him..

"but nothing will happen, we will meet with him and go from there, im not worried, you shouldnt be either" she said honestly..

"Your the most amazing woman i know, i mean that" he said as he rubbed his thumb over her lip and then kissed her softly.."But you need to get dressed and i need to call my guys and let them know whats going down, if were doing this then i need a plan and backup" he said as he pulled back from her..

She went to protest him leaving the room but her phone began to ring.."crap i should probably get that"

"yeah well if its your boy then you better tell him that your taken, i dont want to have to kick anyones ass" he grinned as he kissed her forehead and walked out of the room, she smiled big as she thought of his words, 'your taken', she blushed from head to toe, her phone rang some more, she quickly grabbed it and saw it was her brother Rex..

"hey Rex whats up" she said cheerfully..

"wow up early and happy, someone had a good night" he laughed.."by the way i just want you to know that Cris is a great guy" he began and Natalie swallowed hard, he assumed her happiness was caused from Cris, well for now she would let him think that..

"yeah" she said as she swallowed hard..

"But check this out Nat, that guy, the FBI Agent, holy shit this guy is one fucked up mess, and you said he is working for Bo?" Rex said as Natalie stiffened, right about now she didnt want to know what rex found out, she was beginning to feel sick..

"well not really working for him but.." she whispered as she could hear John talking on his phone, she began to get dressed as Rex continued..

"well supposedly this dude had to take a leave of absence a few years back, it was only for 6 months but he almost killed a guy, apparently his old lady was knocking boots with a friend of his, the guy went off the deep end, their ended up being restraining orders against him from his fiancee Caitlyn something or another, he move quite a few times, the dude has an arrest sheet a mile long, mainly public intoxication and battery charges, damn Feds can get away with anything these days" Rex huffed..

Natalie swallowed hard, he had a fiancee, things were beginning to pan out now, the way he behaved, his thoughts on relationships and what not..

"the guy is bad news, definitely not what this town needs, i should tell Bo" rex began, he always had a soft spot for Bo, they had become very close over the years and with Rex getting himself in and out of trouble with the PI business, well Bo had helped him out alot, he looked up to his Uncle"

"No.." Natalie said quickly and then tried to play it cool.."Bo already has enough on his plate Rex, lets just drop it ok"

"drop it? This dude is like a loose cannon waiting to erupt" Rex said defensively...

"yeah well you know better than anyone that people do change Rex" she said quickly..She could hear John getting off the phone, her heart began to race.."listen thank you for what you did, but i will handle it from here ok"

"but Nat" Rex began..

"Please just let me do this, i gotta go ok" she said as she hung up just in time for John to walk in the room..

"so i spoke with my guys, all we need is a verbal statement from Carlo saying he wants to buy you, we can bring him in on attempting to human traffic, and once we got him in custody we can get a search warrant for his place" he felt a bit relieved, maybe this could be over tonight, all he had to do was have Carlo say the words.."my men will be there waiting on my word"

"what if he doesnt say it, i mean im sure he is cautious with his words, you said yourself he is paranoid" she said honestly as he walked over to her..

"Ive done this for a long time Natalie, i know how to get people to say things" he touched her face and she smiled nervously at him, all she kept thinking about was his financee, she couldnt help but want to know more about this woman..

"You ok, was everything ok on the phone?" he asked and she playfully rolled her eyes..

"everything was fine, just my brother checking up on me" she smiled..

"he's the PI, right? what do you have him doing, checking up on me" he laughed and she stiffened some..

"no" she said nervously..

"i was joking Natalie" he grinned and she laughed again..

"ha funny" she began and then quickly said."so what do you think i should wear tonight" she got up and he noticed a change in her behaviour but he passed it off to nerves..

"the idea of him even looking at you drives me crazy" he said as she looked at him.."Im sorry i sound like a " he began and she laughed..

"Like a jealous boyfriend or something"she finished as she laughed, he ran his hand through his hair..

"yeah thats um a term im not use to hearing" he said nervously...

"Well i kind of like how it sounds" she grinned and he walked over to her, wrapping his hand into the back of her hair as he held it..

"I think i like it too" he finished as he took her mouth with his and kissed her deeply, he pulled back and she looked at him with drowsy bedroom eyes.."I wont let anyone hurt you" he had a seriousness to his voice and she smiled nervously, thinking of what Rex said about him.."You finish getting ready, we can grab something to eat and go over somethings" he said as he kissed her forehead and she watched him walk out of the room, he was more than she could of ever wished for even if he had a bit of a cray streak in him...

John went into the livingroom, he was worried about her, if anything he felt more protective of her and he would make sure nothing happened to her.

They headed out of town for lunch, both of them knowing they couldnt be caught together in Lanview, it was kind of fun to sneak around Natalie thought as she sat across from him in a small burger joint as he talked about the case and how he saw it going down, she just kept looking at him, wondering what kind of woman could ever cheat on him, hell he was the kind of guy that women would cheat on someone else with, he was amazing..

"You know if you keep on looking at me like that your gonna make me blush" he grinned as she shook her head, this was nice, way nicer than she ever imagined it to be..She liked this side of John, he was much softer and hell he actually smiled which was nice...

They spent the rest of the afternoon going around town, they even stopped at a nearby park outside of Lanview and took a walk, hand in hand, it was something neither of them had experienced in awhile, especially John, he was letting his guard down big time but oddly he felt comfortable with the fact that he knew she wouldnt hurt him, not like the other women in his life has, she was different, much different and he could see that..

"so um when this case is over, your gonna head back to AC" this had been on her mind all afternoon, especially since she knew this case would most likely be ending soon, she had no idea where that left them..

"good question" he said as he looked at her and they began to walk some more.."some new developments came to light, so" he grinned at her..

"new developments huh" she smiled at him..

"i kind of would like to see where they would go" he stopped and looked at her now and she swallowed hard, not really expecting him to say that and not really sure how to answer.."unless i am the only one who is wondering" he looked at her seriously..

She smiled big and touched his cheek.."I think we owe it to these ummm developments to see where they head"

"i think i like where this is headed" he brushed a piece of her hair away..

"i like you" she blushed..

"that feeling is definitely mutual" he finished as his lips crashed onto hers, the kiss quickly got heated and he pulled back slightly from her but he was still so very close.."we still have time before we head out tonight" his voice was drop dead sexy as he spoke and she swallowed hard..

"time is good" she slightly bit her lip and then off they went..

John couldnt keep his hands off of her once they pulled up to his house, he felt like his sex drive had been multiplied by a hundred, he felt insatiable around her, it stirred something very primal in him as if he wanted to brand her, and make her his and only his forever..

She was overwhelmed by his sexual aggression as he pulled her from the car, lifting her and kissing her passionately as he walked to the door, she didnt even know how he didnt fall but he walked as if nothing else mattered, getting into the house he immediately put her down as he closed the door and then like an animal he yanked off his shirt and immediately grabbed hers and tossed it aside, his hand swiftly moving to the back of her head as he grabbed her hair, pulling her neck back slightly as he licked and tasted the soft flesh there, she gasped at his strength, she was on fire, he had her, oh he definitely had her..

She walked backwards as he pushed her into the wall, his mouth coming back to attack hers again, she felt one hand on her jeans as he began pushing them down, she grabbed at his belt and tugged, setting it free, the air was filled with sounds of their heavy breathing, she shimmed out of her jeans as he yanked down his own pants, boxers included as she gulped yet again at his magnificent size, he grinned at her as he took her mouth possessively again and then he was lifting her, she didnt think she would ever get over how strong he was and he lifted her without any problems at all, his erection was up against her stomach and he pinned her against the wall, she couldnt think much less breath as she felt his hand move between them as he adjusted himself under her and then with one quick, decisive thrust he entered her, his mouth capturing her glutteral screams of pleasure..

Her body felt amazing to him, the way it grabbed him and drew him in deeper, all he could do was feel and she felt fucking wonderful.. His hands kneeded hard into her ass as he drove into her, her screams of pleasure driving him on even further..But at this rate he would be over and done sooner then he would like and so he withdrew himself from her as difficult as it was and she looked at him shockingly, panting as she did so..

"what? Your stopping?" she couldnt grasp what was happening as he put her down, the immediate loss of contact shocked her system..

"not a chance sweetheart" he said as he began damn near dragging her down the hall and then he was quickly opening his door as he pushed her in, he was grinning as she stood there, his bedroom, she had never seen his bedroom before, it was very masculine in style with black leather trim on a very large bed, before she could say anything he was picking her up and tossing her on the bed as she laughed out loud.."Oh i can guarentee you there will be nothing funny about what im about to do to you" he winked at her as she looked up at him and then just like that he was on the bed, pushing her up as he grabbed onto her hips and with a wicked grin his mouth dove between her legs and she almost shot off of the bed from the contact..

"oh my god!" she gasped as his tongue penetrated her deeply and he ground his hands into her hips, keeping her in place, the feeling of his long thick and course tongue was indescribable, he lapped at her flesh as if he was starving to death and she immediately began writhing against the bed, digging her own hands into the soft material of his blanket...

She was moaning and panting as her head went from side to side, he knew she was close and he replaced his tongue with one finger, driving it into her as she cried out, his mouth then latched onto her swollen bud as he sucked against her and he felt her cum against his hand, watching her was by far one of the most erotic things he had ever seen, he was literally about to lose it right then and there..

She didnt even feel him move over her as she cried in pleasure but just when she didnt think she could take anymore his cock filled her still throbbing body and he grunted like an animal into the air as he felt her continue to cum onto his cock..

"Fuck Natalie!" his words echoed through the air as her body pulled at him, squeezing and forcing him to spill inside of her as he thrust himself into her wildly as her body drank up what he had to offer and then he collasped against her body, sated for now..

After a few minutes of laying against her he picked his head up, she was smiling at him and he brushed a piece of her hair away.."I never really thought id feel like this...again" he said low as he looked at her and she swallowed hard, he was admitting something, the added 'again', it meant something..

"you've been hurt i understand that" she said softly and he smiled as he shook his head, he began to sit up..

"Im not one for spilling my soul"he said as he ran his hand through his hair..

"Its ok, i mean if you dont want to talk about it" she began as she sat up, this was good, he was actually talking about things in his past..

"Its not that i wont talk about things, its just, last time i trusted someone they let me down" he looked at her.."i let myself down too and i dont want to do that to you"

"Im not worried about that" she said honestly..

"when was the last time you had a relationship Natalie" he brushed a piece of hair from her face, she just looked at him.."you havent ever had a relationship have you" he dropped his hand from her face, this is what he had feared, she hadnt even lived yet, she was so young, so much to go after in life..

"Your upset i havent had a relationship" she said a bit confused as he got up and walked to his dresser and pulled out a pair of jeans..."if your worried i need to sow some wild oats" she began as she pulled the blanket around her and stood up...

"im 13 years older than you Natalie, you havent even experienced life fully yet" he said honestly as he put his jeans on...

"i dont care how old you think you are, i like you and i dont have to have a slew of relationships behind me to show me that" she said as she walked up to him, he turned and faced her.

"this is all just happening really fast, i wasnt expecting to feel this way and its only been a week, i mean honestly it all sounds a bit crazy" he said as he shook his head..

"then im totally in for crazy" she smiled but he looked at her seriously..."do you wanna know why i never lost my virginity" she said as he looked at her.."its cause i always wanted it to be with someone special and i watched all my friends lose it to a guy who they thought was wonderful and a month or even sometimes a day later he would leave them, and it broke them,...I... I never wanted to be broken, i always thought that when it was the right guy that i would know and then i met you" she began..

"You dont have to do this natalie" he said honestly..

"i want to, i want you to know" she swallowed hard.."there was something about you that drew me in, maybe the excitement of this case at first but then out of no where really it hit me, i look at you and i see a strong, passionate man, one who fights for justice, one thats been hurt in the past, one thats broken" she said as she touched his face.."i may only be 22 years old but i know when i feel something wonderful and i dont want to lose that, ive fallen for you John McBain, harder and faster then i ever imagined possible, you say i havent lived yet but standing here, being with you makes me feel more alive then i have ever felt" she searched his eyes wondering if she had said to much, if he was going to run, but he moved his hand to her cheek..

"thats exactlly what i needed to hear" he said as he claimed her mouth in a passionate kiss.
