Chapter 73 Screw with Her Head

"

Jax was always thinking about sex, but that was what a healthy adult male was supposed to think about. It wasn't his fault. It's just the way a man's brain was wired unless he had some mental problems or something. Add in the fact that he'd been in prison and hadn't had sex in it felt like forever and it was bound to be on his mind all the time. Not only was sex on his mind, he was multitasking his thinking and thinking about sex two or three times at once all while riding the motorcycle. A man's brain was a beautiful thing, he thought chuckling silently to himself.

What man could not think of sex with Ava's long legs and breasts pressing against him? Ava was sexy as hell even if she didn't fully appreciate just how sexy she was. He remembered reading in his research about a slow burn approach to romance. Women apparently liked this with the exception of croweaters. They didn't seem to care about seduction or romance or anything like that.

If one of the guys turned down a croweater for sex . . . Jax couldn't remember that ever happening. Even unattractive croweaters got banged. Just leave the lights off and proceed as usual.

He preferred the less attractive ones. They worked harder to please a guy. The pretty ones were too busy posing so they would look good. He didn't think Ava was the posing type. She wasn't all that vain unlike the Cara Cara porn stars who liked to hang out at the clubhouse sometimes.

Those porn stars were almost more trouble than they were worth especially Ima who was under the mistaken impression that she was the alpha female in the clubhouse. The couple of times he'd been with Ima he felt like she was imagining how she would look if they were being filmed.

He was glad he had a condom rule because Ima tended to come down with STDs requiring time off from filming. Luann would get furious with her for having unprotected sex. She was fine with Ima not using a condom on film, but she expected Ima to use a condom to protect her money makers in her private life. Miss Double Penetration came with double the STDs.

Jax and Ava continued their trip stopping at a gas station so they could use the restrooms, get gas and take a break with nonalcoholic pina coladas that were sold in the gas station's snack bar. They split an order of tiki fries which turned out to be regular French fries with a dusting of spices Jax didn't recognize but he only knew salt, pepper and cinnamon as far as spices went..

They stopped before the afternoon rains at a small hotel tucked away up a winding road. Their room had a beautiful view of a cliff and lush tropical vegetation. Ava and Jax relaxed in their hotel room until dinner. She'd changed into a white sundress sprigged with violets. Jax changed into a clean white shirt.

She hadn't even complained that their hotel room wasn't as plush as their room at the resort. It was bright, airy and clean done in the expected bright Hawaiian prints and bamboo, but it had its own charm.

What Jax liked was a small basket of complimentary snacks waiting on their bed for them. It was just two small clear packages of macadamia nuts and a couple of chocolate chip macadamia nut cookies also in their own little clear packages tied with red ribbons.

"Is this OK with you?" Jax asked.

"It's nice," Ava said looking out the window down the hill. "I like that it's kind of tucked away from everything. It's more private."

"Are you OK with continuing the bike trip or do you want to go back?"

"I like riding on the bike. I feel like I'm seeing the real Hawaii for the first time. If we have fun tomorrow, we should rent a bike and take a trip when we're in Maui."

Ava would never admit to Jax that part of the reason she liked riding on the bike was that she enjoyed the physical contact with him. Feeling his strong body pressed up against hers and the expert way he commanded the powerful bike was making her consider rethinking her dislike of all of Jax's muscles crazy as that seemed to her.

The path to the restaurant was wide but winding. Jax played the part of the perfect gentleman guiding Ava down the path. Not much drinking for either of them tonight or they would never get back up that path. So far, Jax had enjoyed the day with Ava as shocking as it seemed.

They ate roasted pig and had tropical cheesecake for dessert. Jax told her about some of the less illegal parts of the things he'd had to do when he was prospecting for the MC. He knew that she didn't understand how a motorcycle club worked especially the workings of an outlaw club. As his old lady, she was going to need to understand his world and eventually learn her place in it.

There was a bar a short distance away from the restaurant. They walked along a moonlit beach path to get to the club. Ava was walking close to him and her fingers kept brushing his. Jax knew that she wanted him to take her hand and hold it. That was exactly why he didn't reach for her hand.

They had a couple of drinks and danced. When they slow danced, Ava kept trying to get closer to him, but he kept her at a distance.

Ava didn't understand what was going on with Jax. He kept telling her he wanted to have sex with her, but when she gave him every opportunity to hold her hand when they were walking he didn't even try to take her hand. When they were dancing, he didn't take the opportunity to hold her close like he had last night. What was going on?

She was determined that he kiss her that night so she could see if her memory that he didn't kiss like a dog was right. He'd been so eager before—could he be disgusted with her because of all her vomiting? He'd taken such care of her surely if he had been repulsed he wouldn't have been so nice to her. Before the night was over, she was sure she could get Jax to kiss her.

Jax made a momentous decision—he wasn't going to try to have sex with Ava. He wasn't going to touch her unless necessary. He'd been thinking about sex with Ava all wrong. He had given the power of sex to Ava. That was just plain wrong.

Time to take his power back. It might take a few days longer to have sex with her, but his dick wouldn't explode if he had to wait a few days to finally have sex with his bride.

He was going to screw with her head, resist her and make her do the seducing. It was going to be a new experience for him. Ava was going to wonder what the hell was going on. Once more, he chuckled silently to himself.
