Chapter Sixteen

His hands tightened on her and his eyes burned into hers. Lee lowered his head a fraction of an inch and Jessica lifted her mouth towards him, licking her lips expectantly and parting her mouth, wanting him to kiss her very badly.

"Jess…" he whispered softly. His mouth was only a breath away and Jessica had only an instant to tilt her mouth up and touch his lower lip when he pulled away with a strained groan. "Not here."

Jessica took a deep breath and tried to remember that he was right. They weren't the only ones in the room. "Outside?" She asked, slightly dazed from the thrumming hunger burning a path through her blood to settle desperately between her legs. Oh Gods, how she wanted him.

His hands on her back were trembling slightly and she stepped forward a few inches, pressing herself against him gently and feeling how much he wanted her as well.

"Jess…" he repeated, licking his lips while his eyes flared with heat.

She reached up and touched him, running a finger down his smooth cheek. "Lee," she whispered simply, not hiding the naked desire from her voice. He shivered and bit his lip then straightened and without a word, began pulling her towards the exit. Jessica followed, her whole body throbbing with expectation, her hand tucked securely in his. When they spilled out into the fake moonlight, he grabbed her and crushed his mouth to hers, pressing her hard against the wall.

Jessica gave a triumphant sigh as she pulled him closer, digging her fingers into his shoulders and pressing herself eagerly against him as his tongue slid into her mouth to meet hers. One hand came down to slide through the slit in her dress and grab her thigh, squeezing gently. His other hand covered her breast through her dress, making Jessica whimper with the need to feel him against her bare skin.

"Oh Gods, Jess…Jess…What am I doing?" He broke his mouth from hers but only to run his lips down her neck, making her arch against him. He pulled aside the neckline of her dress, exposing a breast to the cool night air before making her cry out with the heat of his mouth on her nipple. "What are you doing to me?" He demanded as he sucked, licked and bit her, His fingers worked past her panties, feeling her slick heat.

"Lee…take me…your room, now. Oh Gods…please…" Jessica panted feeling dangerously close to an orgasm. She wanted him inside of her and feeling the pounding demand of his own desire, knew that he would take her gladly.

He stopped his blissful torment only long enough for them to make it to his hotel room and then his hands were on her again, unzipping her dress. He grabbed her hips and lifted her off her feet, his mouth sucking on her lips as they moved to his bed. He dropped her on the mattress and climbed over her and lowered the green material down off her breasts before taking one in his mouth again making her bury her head against the mattress as she held him close to anchor herself.

Her hands fumbled with his jacket, trying to remove it and Lee finally pulled back to strip both his jacket and shirt off hastily before claiming her mouth again. Feeling his bare skin against her breasts, Jessica's trembling increased. He lifted her slightly to pull her dress the rest of the way down until she was clad only in her underwear. She began pulling insistently at his belt. Lee gave a soft laugh and grabbed her hands and pulled them up over her head.

"Oh Gods, Lee…please…I love you. I love you so much."

He gave her a soul searing kiss as he nudged her thighs apart and then moved his hand between them, sliding into her panties to stroke her. Jessica whimpered and turned her face to the side, the sensations becoming too much.

"Come baby," he murmured hotly in her ear, thrusting his finger inside of her and curling it upwards as he stroked back and forth.

"Oh yes…Oh Gods…Lee, please. I want you inside of me…please," she begged.

"Oh I will, trust me," he promised. He pressed his thumb against her dripping center and Jessica cried out his name as her orgasm shot through her blood ruthlessly.

"Oh frak!"

Lee nipped at her shoulder as he stroked her through her orgasm and began to build her up yet again.

"Oh Lee…inside of me…now!" she demanded, heatedly.

"How you feel right now? Desperate, hot, wanting? That's how you make me feel every day. Every night I'm dreaming of you like this, feeling how I feel, shaking underneath me."

"Yes…yes…Show me. Tell me. Tell me you love me. Tell me you're feeling what I'm feeling," she panted. "Say the wor-"

He kissed her again, lifting her legs around his hips so she could feel how hard he was. Jessica gave a desperate moan and moved her hips against his, rubbing herself against his clothed erection. Lee pushed down and she could feel his own senses spinning as well as he rolled his hips hungrily against her.

Her own senses were amplified, joined in her mind by what he was feeling as well and Jessica could feel the approach of another orgasm. She bit her lip, trying to hold it back, wanting him to be full and thrusting inside of her when she came again.

But Lee had other plans. He moved down along her body until his face was between her thighs, glancing up at her with a determined, devilish gleam in his eye.

"I want to know how you taste," He pulled her underwear down off her hips, Jessica shaking with anticipation beneath him.

Oh he was going to kill her before he ever got inside of her!

He licked her very slowly and gave a groan of satisfaction when her hand gripped his hair and she lifted her hips to him to take more.

"Oh my Gods…" she cried feeling the excruciatingly wonderful heat of his mouth sending her hurtling towards another sharp orgasm. "Lee…Oh Gods…I can't….I can't take anymore…Frak…killing me…"

Then he began spearing her with his tongue and Jessica was screaming his name and screaming her love for him as she bore down against his mouth in a mind numbing orgasm.

She dropped, panting against the mattress and smiled lazily when his head was above hers again.

"Nice?" He asked smugly.

Jessica laughed breathlessly as he dotted kissed along her collarbone and nuzzled her neck. "Gods…" She sighed then she took his face her hands and kissed him thoroughly. "I love you so much, Lee. I love you so much I feel dizzy," she sighed, giggling happily.

He reached for her mouth again and a warning bell went off in the back of Jessica's dazed mind. He hasn't said the words. She broke off the kiss and stared at him and her mind skipped ahead to after they made love. He'd feel regret. His physical desire for her would be sated for the moment but he would try and brush it off as a simple lay, nothing more. He would tell her they had gotten carried with this thing that had been building between them and that she was trying to take things too far emotionally. She wanted something he couldn't give her. The future conversation was filling her with an icy dread and she shook her head.

"You can't say it, can you?"

Lee stared down at her warily. "What are you talking about?" He reached down and tried to kiss her again but she stopped him.

"No, Lee. No..I..can't…not like this, I thought I could but…Oh Gods," She was shoving at him, pushing him off of her and trying to slide out from underneath him.

"What? No, where are you going? You don't want to stop-" He trapped her with his arms and Jessica closed her eyes against the frustration she saw in him.

"No, I don't. But we can't do this. I can't, not with you,"

"Jess, come on. This doesn't have to be a big-"

"Don't, Lee. Don't say that when you know why it is a big deal if we made love."

"Oh this is frakking ridiculous!" Lee burst angrily moving off of her. "Fine, you wanna go? Go!" He all but pushed her off the bed. He got up and threw her dress at her. "I'm sick of your games, Ms Talbot. One minute you're hot. The next your cold. I'm not gonna be your frakking lap dog, okay?"

"Lee-" Jessica opened her mouth to protest Lee was too far into his anger fuelled by sexual frustration.

"No, you want me but only under your conditions. You want me as some frakking sperm donor for some kid-"

"I love you, you frakking moron! That's why we can't do this, not if it's not gonna mean more to you. If all that mattered was that damned prophecy than I would have frakked you the first day and had done with it but that's not what I want, Lee. Don't you get that?"

"A second ago you were begging me to frak you, now you're telling me to stop. Forgive me if I don't have the patience to deal with what you want when you can't even decide that yourself."

"I thought you…" She looked away, holding her dress close to her and fighting tears. She turned her back to him and pulled her dress back on. "I thought you were ready t0 admit that you loved me. I thought that was why we were going to make love now. If all I wanted was a frak, Lee, I'm sure Derby would have obliged."

Lee's eyes widened and he grabbed her arm as she tried to walk towards the door, the message in his eyes clear. You're mine.

Jessica laughed bitterly at the unspoken words. "You're right. I am. But you don't want me. Or, let me change that, you want me, but you don't want to admit that you love me and that's the only way I'll ever give myself to you. Now leave me alone." She walked towards the door and this time, Lee didn't stop her from leaving.
