Chapter Seventy-Five: Healing

Devon stretched, a tapping sound stirred her from the deep sleep she’d finally succumbed to. Buried in the sheets she rolled over and Jon grinned at her propped up in his pillows as he worked on his phone.

“Morning pretty girl. Was just clearing my calendar for the day.”

She mumbled, rolled into the side of his chest as his arm swept around her. “You’re spending the whole day with me?” He said it the night before but she wanted to check again.

“Yup you’ll be pushing me out the door tomorrow after a whole day with me today. “ He chuckled as he kissed the top of her head. “Are you feeling ok this morning?”

She sighed content, sleep had done her the world of good and she was looking forward to staying put today to gather her strength and wits back. She needed a minute, or a few hours as it was turning out to be. The idea of anything outside this apartment didn’t thrill her today. “I feel like I don’t ever want to leave here.”

He chuckled and let his phone slide onto the bedside table before he swivelled in front of her. “You don’t have to. Jonathan has the salon covered.”

“You called him?” She asked. She should have called him and explained everything, he’d be worried but she was glad Jon had already done it.

“I did. Naturally he wants to talk to you but I told him you’d give him a call later. You’ll probably want to check on a few things knowing you.” He winked stroking her cheek. “My favourite little control freak.”

Her smile faded as she looked down. “I don’t feel in control. Is that weird?”

“After what you’ve been through, no. Are you sure you don’t want me to get someone to come over to talk to? You seem out of sorts - which again is normal.” He was trying so hard for her. Giving her every option and treading lightly. She didn’t want the reminder she was fragile.

“What I want...” She trailed off as her gaze flicked back up to his and her fingers walked up his arm.

His brow lifted and an impish grin quirked on his lips. “Oh yeah?”

Her hand rubbed down his chest and she closed her eyes as the heat hit her hand. “Jon. I need you to make me forget. Overwhelm me.”

Her eyes opened when he didn’t respond but his blue eyes were staring intently back at her. He rolled her onto her back and lifted her hands to his mouth and kissed them before placing them above her head.

Their noses bumped and his lips lightly brushed against hers but he didn’t kiss her. She groaned as his mouth swiped down over her chin and his hands slid up the silk nightie. She arched under his mouth as he left a hot trail of kisses down the center of her. Her toes curled as his mouth skimmed over her breast, catching the nipple.

Her eyes fluttered as she threaded her fingers into his hair and sighed happily. His tongue flicked her straining tip and her clit throbbed. His hand lifted up her breast and this time his mouth covered it. The pleasure eased through her like a warm summer breeze. Her body arched back off the bed as sunlight inched across the bed.

“Do you know how beautiful you are?” His voice was there but she was concentrating on his mouth as it moved to her other breast.

She gasped and moaned as his tongue curled around the tip. “Uh huh...” She replied impatiently but the deep chuckle vibrated against her delicate skin. He took the opportunity to slide one hand down under her ass and lift her close to him. His hand massaged her hip as his lips touched her stomach. Her belly quivered as his fingers hooked into her panties and tugged them down her thighs.

Her legs parted as he kissed the inside of her thigh and nuzzled close to her breaking point. The tightness in her chest had eased and she melted around him as the tip of his tongue grazed against her heat.

The sound of gunfire rattled in her head and her heart leapt in her throat but it was all in her head. She fought to let it go as Jon took long strokes down her clit.

“Oh god...yes...take me Jon...Take me.” She whispered more as a plea than a demand blocking out everything else in her mind except Jon.

His fingers slid inside her marrying the rhythm of his tongue shooting her sensitive sensations into over drive. Devon reached out and clenched her hand into a pillow desperate to rid her head of the night before. She didn’t belong to Jared, she belonged to Jon.

“Oh god, yes!” Her eyes squeezed shut and her thighs clenched on either side of his shoulders. She panted and hiccupped as the tears surprised her but he didn’t stop.

Away to the darkness you go.

Her hips rose from the bed higher and harder against his mouth.

She came undone and orgasmed against his mouth, her hands fisted in his hair. She collapsed back onto the bed as her body filled with pleasure. Tears rolled down the sides of her face as he kissed his way back up over her body. He swept away her hair and kissed her hard on the lips as he wrapped her legs around his waist. He broke the kiss and smiled down at her, nothing but love staring right through her.

“Oh god-I-just-” She got barely a second to catch her breath before his mouth was back on hers. Her hands cupped his cheeks as the weight of him crushed her into the bed. He wasn’t stopping, his tongue invaded her mouth tasting every corner he could. She bowed back as teeth scraped up her jaw and to the sweet spot below her ear. He licked, kissed and whispered against the shell of her ear.

“Let go.”

She cried out as he slipped his full length inside of her and groaned against her neck. His arms vibrated as he slid out and back in once, slowly sending her senses into a spin. She grabbed his cheek and kissed him hard once, twice until she couldn’t stop kissing him. Jon responded each time, each kiss hard and fast.

With the passion between them a fever pitch, she giggled once as he stroked perfectly inside her again and again until laughter turned into absolute bliss. He covered her completely until all she knew was the weight of him but she felt safer than ever. He hit her g-spot and the sweet pressure threatened to blow. Each stroke, skin slapped against skin. Sweat beaded down his temple as he hungrily kissed her over and over.

She gasped for breath but she didn’t fight him, she wanted him to win. Her arms hooked under his as she held him against her as he assaulted her body. She wanted to let go, god she wanted to. She cried out as she came. He gripped her as her body trembled as she came down. He quickly followed, and growled her name as he came inside her.

Jon rolled her so he was on his back and she was sprawled along his length. His body screamed but he was content as he ran his hand down over her back and up in her hair until she settled against him.

“Wow.” He commented as chest heaved. They had connected, he felt relieved that it was still there and that whatever she was still holding onto from her Jared would ease away over time. He was confident of it. So if she was a little needy now he could handle that and he wanted to protect her.

She had been silent so he stroked her hair. “Anyone in there?”

He lifted an eyebrow as she sat up and straddled him, a grin wide on her face. His eyes followed the long line of her body in appreciation as he cupped her hips. “What are you up to Miss Devon?” He asked amused. She sank down on him, enough that her wet pussy rubbed against the top of his cock a she leaned back and sent sensations down his skin.

“Nothing.” She smirked with a grin that could melt butter. He groaned as she rolled back with enough friction to harden him instantly.

He propped his hands behind his head and beamed. She was comfortable and in her element with him and hell, like he was about to say no to whatever else was coming. He wasn’t that fucking stupid. There was a naked woman on top of him.

Devon slid slowly down his shaft and covered him completely. He closed his eyes but quickly opened them as her hands cupped his jaw. “Eyes on me.” She rode his cock slowly, sensually until he was about to burst. His hands didn’t stay still for long. Mesmerized by her breasts swaying about him he cupped them and rolled his thumb over the nipples roughly.

Her head bowed and her hands slid down to his chest so she wouldn’t fall. Her lips parted and his cock pulsed inside her as every movement she made stretched him further towards orgasm. Her nipples were hard as diamonds in his hands and revelled in each small gasp from her as he touched them.

“I want you to watch me cum.” She whispered as she bent over him for a sizzling kiss.

“I want you to cum hard.” He whispered back countering her play. He grunted as she pushed and pulled his cock, she was close and her thighs clenched at each side of him. His cock throbbed inside her as her nails dug into his skin.

“Coming...” She shouted and her neck tipped back. He wanted to taste her skin, smother her with him but he let her go. She screamed and was the sexiest thing he’d seen. He exploded inside her jerking his shoulders back into the pillow as he came.

Devon snuggled down to his chest and he wrapped himself around her as she softly sighed against him. She quivered a couple of times before she kissed his chest. “Thank you.”

He stroked her gently and laughed. “For what? The double-orgasm I just had.” He breathed in the familiar scent of cotton candy. She didn’t smell like death and dirt. She was Devon again.

“No. I forgot.”

He rolled him gently so they were twisted in the sheets and his legs with hers. He tipped her jaw up to his and kissed her softly. “I love you and I’ll always make you forget. You’re safe now. Here, with me and if I have to make love to you five times a day to prove it, I will.”

Her eyes sparkled as the smile reached her eyes. “I love you too...I don’t know if you could make it five times a day though?” She teased trying to bite her lip to hide the grin.
“You really want me to try? I’ll try. You know I’ll try.”

She chuckled against him as they kissed. “I don’t want to go outside today.”

He kissed her nose and then her lips tenderly. “Then don’t. I’ll get an update on your dad. And we’ll stay right here...and watch movies or something?”

“You are really going to sit still all day?”

He twisted his finger in her hair and kissed below her ear. “Oh I never said I’d be sitting still all day did I? I have three more ways to make you cum today to figure out.”

She laughed and each time she did his chest eased a little more. She was Devon. He would be patient with her returning to her life but if she was Devon right here and right now, who was he to argue. He’d help her through it no matter what. Because he was not losing her. Not now, not ever.
