Ch11:Rules Are For Suckers

After pretty much spending the next two days in Jake's house, only coming out occasionally for a few hours to visit 's at Sarah's rum shack, and only really leaving the bedroom when they were in his house for things like food and cleanliness—which always led to prolonged, heated sex in the shower—Leah awakened late in the evening of the second straight day in Jake's home, feeling the aftermath of their sexual gluttony.

The more you get the more you want.

There was absolutely no such thing as satisfaction. It was a myth created to lull fools insane enough to believe it. Or maybe it was for people who had never been loved to distraction in Jake's arms.

She rolled over and gave him a peck on the lips that turned into a prolonged kiss. It was around six in the evening, and her stomach was starting to growl for some of Sarah's delicious food.

She couldn't believe how close she had gotten to Jacob's mother. She felt like Sarah's Rum Shack was home, and she was going to miss it and Blake more than anything. She knew she would never come back there. It would hurt too much to come back and know that she'd never be in Jacob's arms again.

She playfully pulled away from him. "It's time for us to get up so that we can head to Sarah's. You know she'll tell both of us off and pop us upside the head with that damn cloth if we step up in there too late like we did last night and I want to laugh at the people who can't sing."

He pulled her back and flipped her under him. "We don't have to go to the rum shack for that. I can't sing, and I'll sing off key while I make love to you all night." He kissed her mark gently, melding his lips to her neck in a sensuous and scandalous manner.

She moaned and wrapped her arm around his neck. It was only when her stomach made its growling noise again that he took a little pity on her and stopped.

"Okay, let's move this to the shower, then. We can finish up in there, and then I can go feed you and bring you right back here under me, where you belong."

She laughed as he stood, picked her up and placed her over his shoulders.

"You better not drop me Black!" It was hard to sound threatening when she was so bust giggling.

Jake used the hand that wasn't holding her on his shoulder to slap her on her behind. "Be still woman, I got this."

"Ooohh, when you put me down, I'm going to get you." she growled playfully.

Jake gave her behind another smack.

"Promises, promises." He placed her down in the spacious, doorless shower and turned on the water.

As the water fell over both of them he covered her mouth with a sweet, soul stealing kiss, and she forgot all about getting back at him. The only thing she could thing about was how good he felt.

He spun her around so that she was facing the marble tiled wall with her hands flat against it. She felt him behind her reaching for the protection they decided to keep near the shower, just in case…Before she could turn to watch him cover himself, he was back and inside of her.

She turned her head, and he covered her lips as his hands covered hers and they rocked together underneath the water. She couldn't tell whether all the steam was coming from the shower or their bodies or both. To be honest she didn't really care not with Jake consuming her this way.

His hips thrust up as his body pressed her closer to the tile. Before she knew it she was crying out with an orgasm that felt as if it had been ripped from her very soul.

I love Jake.

Wow, I love Jake, was the only thing running through her mind as she felt like she was flung up toward the sky, only to come leisurely and flowingly back down to earth.

That was when she realized that her wolf really meant those words, that it wasn't just lust and outstanding sex at play.

She really loved Jacob Black. God help her, she did.

He groaned his release just a few seconds later, still kissing her as if they shared the same lips and they would never part.

He removed the protection and walked back into the shower.

"Hey," he whispered against her neck turning her to face him.

"Hi," she said just as quietly but she knew he heard her over the running water.

"I don't want to hide our marks like we've been doing for the last two days." His voice was deeper, gruffer and although she wanted to deny him. She really didn't have any other shirts, or dresses to cover her mark so she had no choice but to agree. So when she nodded he kissed her lips tenderly before pulling her into his wet warm wet chest. He grinned as they bathed one another lovingly, and Leah's heart broke just a little more.

"Well, look what the wolf drug through the door!" Sarah greeted him and Leah with open arms as they walked into the rum shack. She wasn't behind the counter for once, and she had clearly been setting things up for karaoke.

He hugged his mother and kissed her on the cheek and watched as Sarah embraced Leah. He still couldn't believe how easily Leah seemed to fit in with everyone. And he really couldn't believe how wrong he had been about her all these years. There didn't seem to be a scandalous bone in her body.

He frowned as he thought about her stupid ground rules for their affair. He was certainly going to have to call in his right to renegotiate, because there was no way he was going to allow her to just walk out of his life in two days. He didn't think he would ever get tired of her especially after marking her. So he wasn't letting her go. She would just have to deal with it.

He was Jacob Black, The Wolf, after all, and he didn't lose anything or anyone he really wanted. He never wanted any other woman more than he wanted Leah in his life. His wolf especially loved her with everything in him, which was causing Jake himself to adore and want her even more.

He looked at Leah and smiled. She smiled back and his heart lifted. Surely, she could be reasoned with. She didn't want what was building between them to end any more than he did. She was a rational woman. He would talk with her before she left and let her know that it was time for a change in terms.

Sarah pulled Leah with her. "Come on and help me set up the karaoke girl. You can help me host if we start to get swamped."

Leah looked back at Jake, and he waved at her as they went on their way.

He took a seat at the bar beside his father. His father gave him a hug before turning back to his drink.

"This is the happiest I've seen your mother in a while, at least since your grandmother passed," his father wasn't looking at anything or anyone in particular, but Jake could tell that the man was aiming for some serious talk.

"You have to try and make it home more often, son. I know she doesn't complain, but she misses you. We both do. We're both proud of you. Everyone in this bar knows your every accomplishment. And everyone in this bar knows that she is pleased as punch at the thought that you might finally be settling down." Billy was looking at his mark on Jake's neck but didn't comment on it.

Just the fact the fact that his father noticed it sent a gush of happiness from his wolf. He was glad that Leah didn't fight him on showing them off tonight. He wanted everyone, guys especially to see that Leah was off the market. Even if she really wasn't.

"Well, I hope she isn't getting her hopes up too much. Leah is going to take a little work." Jake grumbled.

"Yes, she seems a little skittish when it comes to you. But given your track record, can you blame her?" Billy chuckled. "Be patient, son. Don't bombard her with more than she can handle. Let her set the pace."

Jake frowned at that. If he let Leah set the pace they would be over and done within two days. And Billy's letting his mother set the pace hadn't gotten his mother down the aisle in thirty something years.

Yeah. Right. He would take his dad's dating advice with more than a little caution.

"I'll give her some room to set the pace, but I'll have to step in and navigate from time to time." Like when I get her to renegotiate her silly ground rules.

He was Jacob Black, and he didn't play by the rules. Rules were for suckers.

"I'm planning to ask your mother to marry me again." His father, Billy had a big grin on his face that went against what one would expect from a man who had been turned down for marriage by the same woman more times than anyone could count. "If she says yes this time, we'll expect you and Leah back for the wedding."

"If she says yes, then Leah and I will definitely be back for the wedding." Jake didn't feel bad about making that promise because if his mother said yes to his father then anything was indeed possible, including being able to get Leah to extend their island fling into some kind of relationship.

"I know you don't think she's going to say yes." No one could accuse Billy for calling Jake on what he had been thinking in his head.

Jake laughed. "I don't doubt it, dad. I don't doubt it at all."

"So are you going to get up there and sing tonight? If you sing Leah a love song, she might just get a little sweeter on you. I'm going to get up there and dedicate a song to Sarah tonight."

Oh, dad, please don't.

Jake knew for a fact that his dad was a worse singer than he was. And that was saying a lot, because Jake knew he couldn't sing. Billy, on the other hand, was one of those people who couldn't sing a lick but was totally clueless about his lack of ability and jumped up to sing every chance he got.

Not a good look.

As people got up to sing, Jake hoped that his father would forget about his desire to serenade Sarah. He would hate for the man to be embarrassed.

Jake was busy pondering Billy when he heard his mother saying words he knew he couldn't have heard properly.

"And next up we'll have my son and his girlfriend, Leah singing a duet that I picked out for them. This is an oldie but goodie, and I'm sure they'll have as much fun with it as we will have watching them."

Leah's head spun around, and she backed away from the karaoke machine and Sarah as if both had the plague.

"Oh, no, Sarah, I told you I can't sing. I'm only here to laugh at the other people who can't sing." Leah said shaking her head as she moved away.

"Come on, Leah and Jake, it'll be fun. Give us something besides those gigantic hickies on your neck to remember you guys by," Sarah coaxed giving them both a pointed look.

Jake had never seen his mother look so happy and carefree. He liked seeing her like that. It made his heart light and made him get up from the bar to catch Leah as she walked away with her face slightly tinged red.

He led her back over to the karaoke machine as she looked at him as if he were crazy.

He kissed her on the cheek. "It'll be fun. And at least we can make fools or ourselves together."

"Oh, I think I would much rather you make a fool of yourself and I sit and laugh at you while you do it," Leah said with a nervous giggle.

"You don't want to be remembered by what my mother called a 'gigantic hickie' right?" he asked her.

Leah narrowed her eyes with most adorable pout playing on her lips, making him want to kiss her as she said. "You don't play fair."

Jake handed her a microphone ignoring her glare and he took the other one. Then he turned to his mother. "Okay, we're here. Show us what you got, Ma"

His mother laughed. "Okay, singing 'Endless Love,' I present for your listening pleasure, Leah and Jake."

Jake hadn't heard the song before. He was pretty sure it was before his time, although he really had no idea. So he had to look at the little screen as he sang.

As the music started he noticed that Leah had this deer in the headlights expression on her face.

Great. He really hoped that she wouldn't freeze and she would be able to carry her weight in this song. He glared at his mother when he got a good look at the lyrics. That would never quit, and she was eerily perceptive on top of all that!

Leah could sing just a little better than he could. But by the time they started saying those lyrics to one another, it didn't matter. He knew he felt and meant every word, and he wondered if Leah meant and felt them too.

When they got to the second chorus, he chanced looking away from the screen and looked at Leah. She was looking right at him.

"And I'll give it all to you," she belted just slightly off-key.

"My endless love," he crooned more than a little off-key. He grinned at her as he finished.

He could only guess that they hadn't made complete fools of themselves because people were clapping and whistling. He pulled Leah into his arms for a deep kiss. She kissed him back with so much passion, his mother had to make a show of pulling them apart.

"Okay, okay, you're taking up space and precious time. We have more people to hear tonight. The two of you, shoo."

Jake hugged Leah as they walked away. "You hungry? I can go in the back and make us some plates. I know my mother put you to work as soon as you got here."

"I don't even know why you ask, when am I not hungry?" she gave him a look. "And your mother did more than just put me to work. But I'll grab us a table."

He couldn't put his finger on it. But something seemed different about Leah. He shrugged it off. He would have the talk with her about extending their fling beyond Blake, and then things would be fine.

He wasn't worried. He would get her to come around.

Leah couldn't believe that Sarah actually said yes to Billy's marriage proposal. Seeing the amount of love Billy poured on Sarah no matter what she said and knowing that the man had waited forever for Sarah to say yes just made her realize how pathetic her own situation was.

She was falling in love with a man who made a life mission out of changing women like he changed clothes, a man who up until a few days ago she had fondly thought of as the last man on earth she would ever be foolish enough to kiss again, let alone have a hot island fling with.

But there they were, heading back to his place to pick up her things and a few items for him. They were going to spend the night in her hotel room because it was closer to his cousins home, and Jake planned on spending some time with his cousins fishing in the morning before spending the rest of the day with her. she already knew she wouldn't be there when he came back.

She had decided to leave a day early. It would have been too hard having him drop her at the airport, knowing that he would be in Seattle in a week and they couldn't see each other again. Her ground rules hadn't prevented her from getting a broken heart. But it would be even worse if she stayed any longer.

When they made it to her hotel room, he didn't waste any time pulling her into his arms and backing her toward the bed. They made quick work of their clothing, and soon Jake was kissing her all over her body.

She thought about the duet they had sung together at Sarah's.

Although neither one of them could carry a tune even if it had a handle, she couldn't help smiling at the memory of Jake's voice crooning those words.

God, how she wished he had meant them!

As he kissed her, his fingers coaxed her sex until she was writhing underneath him. She moaned into his mouth and ran her hands up and down his broad back. The feel of him under her hands made her want to feel him inside of her all the more.

Soon she was clutching his fingers in her sex. A small orgasm pulsed through her, causing her to arch her back in a silent plea for more. He chuckled.

"You ready for me, Leah? Hmm? Let me know babe."

"I need you, Jake. I need you." Her voice sounded raw and she was shocked by how much she didn't care that wasn't just talking about sex. Yes, she needed him to complete the sex act. But she needed him for so much more, and in her current state of mind, she didn't care who knew it.

"I need you too Lee. I need you so much." He moved to protect them, and then entered her.

She cried out as soon as his sex connected with hers. The impact was so strong. She came with a force that shocked them both.

"Oh, fuck, babe. I'm not going to last. You're killing me, Leah." He cried out as his release took him over the top.

He wrapped her in his arms after he got rid of the protection and laughed. "That has never happened to me before."

She smiled. She'd had lovers come quickly in the past but never after making her come just as quickly beforehand.

"Me, neither." She buried her head in the crook of his neck and inhaled. She knew she would remember the scent of him for as long as she lived.

"I won't wake you up before I leave in the morning. We'll get a really early start so that I can come back and spend the rest of my day and night making love to you before you leave on Saturday."

She didn't say anything. If she told him she was leaving in the morning as soon as he got up to go fishing with his cousins, he would have tried to talk her out of it.

She knew she was going to be leaving a big part of herself in Blake. And even though he marked her and she would never be able to have just any guy touch her, she was at least happy she had gotten to turn her rival into a lover, a lover she would never forget.

Eeeeeeeep stubborn Leah...
