The Alpha Male Romance Boxed Set Page 5


  They drove in silence, but within five minutes of leaving the apartment complex parking lot she knew where they were going. "The park?" She cocked an eyebrow at him. They hadn't been to the park since that first memorable date.

  "Yup, but I thought I would tell you what I did before we get there, to get it out of the way and so we can enjoy the evening." He shot a glance at her to confirm she was on board with that idea.

  Jade nodded. "Alright."

  "I've had issues with Nadine since we split. She just doesn't stop. She wants me back, and won't let anyone else be with me. It's a usual routine with her. I've asked her to stop the harassing, the following, the..." he hesitated as if embarrassed, "the stalking, but it hasn't worked. I've tried outright ignoring her and she only doubles her efforts. Today I filed for a restraining order and I'm taking you to the precinct tomorrow to file one as well. It's the only way to make her see that I'm serious." He took her hand, "We're serious. However, it also makes me look very bad. A cop filing for a restraining order from his ex earns something of a snicker around the water cooler, as you can imagine."

  Squeezing his hand, Jade gave him a sympathetic smile. She supposed it would be a blow to his ego. And she realized it must have been hard for him to go there and admit that there was a situation in his own life he needed help with.

  Pulling into the park parking lot, Alex shut off the Jeep and then turned in his seat to look at her. "Are we okay?"

  Jade nodded and gave him a smile. "We're okay."

  "Great. Now for your surprise." He kissed her quickly and then slipped out of the Jeep rushing to her side to let her out.

  Neither one spoke until they were almost at the overlook and then he stopped and pulled a scarf out of his front pocket.

  "What are you planning to do with that?" Jade asked eyeing the strip of satin suspiciously and then lifting her eyes back to him.

  Following her gaze he chuckled. "No…no. Well at least not yet." He wiggled his eyebrows at her, which caused her to roll her eyes and giggle. Damn it if this man wasn't under her skin; she both loved and hated that he was.

  Stepping behind her, he covered her eyes with the soft material and adjusted it so she had no vision. She yelped her surprise as he suddenly lifted her into his arms and held her tight to his chest, walking the rest of the way with her nestled securely in his arms.

  Jade slipped her arms around his neck and rested her head against his chest, soothed by the sound of his rapidly beating heart. The smell of his spicy cologne assaulted her nostrils and called to her. Lifting her mouth, she placed a light kiss on his neck and then smiled at the sound of a low growl coming from him.

  "Behave until we get there," he chided which only spurred Jade on rather than stopping her.

  Minutes after picking her up, he stopped and slowly lowered her to her feet. He stood behind her and faced her in the direction he desired. Once she was positioned he removed the blindfold and all Jade could do was gape at the sight before her.

  "It's beautiful," she finally managed to choke out. Sometime before he came to pick her up Alex must have come here and set up the most romantically breathtaking picnic she'd ever seen. A checkered blanket lay on the ground with a wicker picnic basket and a bottle of wine chilling beside it. Tiki torches were lit and the red and orange fire licked at the near-night sky. A large bouquet of roses and chocolates also sat waiting for her on the blanket.

  Slipping his arms around her waist, Alex buried his face in her neck. He kissed his way from her collarbone to her earlobe. Each kiss sent a chill through her and by the time he had made it to her ear, her pussy was a raging inferno of need for him.

  "I was going to get a mariachi band, but I thought that would be a little bit of overkill."

  Jade laughed and swiped at a tear that was threatening to escape. "No, this is perfect."

  "I love you Jade."

  Closing her eyes, Jade sighed and basked in the feel of his arms around her as she tossed his words around in her mind. She knew he did, had felt it weeks ago, but to hear him say the words so softly in her ear while she looked upon what he'd done to make her happy, was overwhelming.

  Looking up at him, she touched his strong chin with her fingertips and urged his lips to hers. "I love you too," she whispered against his lips.

  His lips came crashing down onto hers with a hunger that took her breath away. Slipping her hand around the back of his neck, she kissed him back with a passion equalling his. She could feel his shaft growing rapidly against her bottom and her body began to rock against his, her rear rubbing against the ridge of his cock through the layers of clothing.

  "Jade," he groaned against her mouth, "Do you want to eat…?"

  "Later." Turning in his arms, so she was facing him, she flattened her body against his and gazed into his eyes. "I missed you being there when I woke up."

  He slipped his hands up her thighs, hooking his thumbs into the thin waistband of her panties and pulling them down. They fell to the ground and she kicked them off. She'd find them later, she told herself. Or not, they were of little concern to her at that moment.

  "Oh, I know - I missed you, too," he informed her, backing her towards the blanket.

  As she reached the edge of the blanket she sat down, reclining back on her elbows. Looking up at him towering over her, she caught her lip between her teeth and shot him a coy grin. "Was it me, or this..." she parted her legs and slipped her skirt up to reveal her moist pussy to him.

  Hunger flared up in his eyes as he lowered himself to the blanket next to her and ran his fingertips up her leg, starting at her knee and slowly inching his way up. "Would you be angry if I said both?" His lips caught hers again, his tongue slipping past her lips as she moaned.

  Her body was on fire in anticipation of him. Each inch his hand crept higher, the higher the flames within her soared. By the time his fingers reached her pussy lips, she could feel her juices seeping from her and making their way down her ass to the blanket under her.

  Slipping a finger between her folds, Alex stroked her from her ass to her clit. He paused at her clit to circle and tease the swollen nub. Jade clutched onto his biceps as he stroked her. Just when she thought she couldn't take another moment of his sweet torture, he stopped and pulled his hand away despite her whimper of protest.

  Nudging her over to her stomach, he positioned himself behind her. Grabbing her hips he urged her up on her hands and knees in front of him and then slid her loose flowing skirt up over her rear. Jade shivered as her wet pussy became exposed to the night air.

  As she bucked and moaned at the feel of his hand stroking her so masterfully, she heard the sound of his zipper coming undone and the rustle of clothing. She wiggled her ass, tempting him.

  "So impatient," he scowled, replacing his finger with the head of his shaft and running it slowly - too slowly - up and down the length of her.

  "Please." Her body was vibrating and her stomach in knots as she waited to be given her much needed relief.

  After running his dick up and down the length of her slit from her ass to her clit and then back again, he settled it at the entrance of her throbbing core. She backed up against him in an attempt to impale herself on his thick shaft.

  Slowly - excruciatingly slowly - he inched his way into her. Each time she attempted to buck against him to drive him in deeper he'd pull away. His torment and teasing was both arousing and frustrating. Then suddenly - to her relief - he gripped tight to her hips and pulled her tight against him, impaling her completely. She cried out as his thick shaft filled her to her limits.

  He held himself tight into her for a long moment, until her bucking against him became too insistent for him to resist her any longer. When he began moving inside of her his pace was fast and hard, pulling himself out nearly completely before ramming himself into her fully again; the head of his hard, thick cock stroking her inner wall. With each inward thrust her whimpers and cries became louder.

  Quickly and suddenly she was overtaken by
her first orgasm. She cried out his name and fisted the blanket under her as her pussy clenched and then she released her juices over his cock. But he was relentless, not allowing her a moment to recover and before she had a chance to take a breath of relief she found herself rapidly ascending the summit once more.

  "Come on sweetie, I want to feel you coming on me again."

  Higher and higher he was taking her, and she couldn't get enough of it - of him. The combination of his cock filling her so beautifully and the faint sound of his balls slapping against her soft, wet flesh had her begging and crying out for release.

  Slipping his hand between her legs, his fingers began stroking her clit. He'd only had his fingers on her clit for a matter of seconds, before she felt another intense wave crash over her, running down her spine and coming to a final explosion between her legs.

  "My God Jade, I don't think I can last any longer," Alex groaned, thrusting into her harder and faster than before.

  "Come... for... me... Alex!" she managed to gasp out between thrusts. Each inward thrust was sending a jolt of pleasure through her. As much as she loved the feel of him, she longed to feel him shoot his warm cum deep into her.

  Several more thrusts and she felt his cock go from rock hard to granite inside of her; it seemed to be throbbing inside of her. Just before he came he grunted, pulling her tight onto him and released, filling her completely with his seed. His final thrust and the feel of his warm cum filling her pussy set her off and she found herself going numb from the pleasure.

  Feeling light-headed and weak from her orgasms she collapsed onto the blanket with Alex flopping down next to her. Still panting she allowed herself to be pulled into his arms. Once her breathing and heart rate went back to normal she cuddled in tightly to his side and looked up at him.

  Alex raked his hand through her hair, watching the long brown strands fall slowly from his grip. "I was also giving something else some thought."

  "Uh-huh," she murmured against his neck, flicking the flesh with her tongue.

  "Mmmm, stop that or I'll never finish what I have to say."

  Grinning Jade looked back up into his loving eyes. "Sorry."

  "I know it has just been a month, but since we've been pretty much living together anyhow, I was thinking we should find new living arrangements. I was thinking about buying a house, so I thought you should look with me."

  He was still a little wary, she got that. So what he was offering, his promise of a future together was more than she could have dreamed of at this point.

  "So you could live with me there." he added, mistaking her silence for misunderstanding about what he was asking.

  Placing a hand on his cheek she leaned over and kissed him. "I got that part."

  "So..." he prompted.

  "Of course, I would love to."

  Alex let out a loud sigh of relief. "Good because I made an appointment for us with the realtor tomorrow."

  Jade cocked an eyebrow at him. "Presumptuous?"

  He raked a hand through her silken hair once more and gazed deep into her eyes. "No just hopeful."

  The End

  The Politician

  And The Girl From The

  Coffee Shop

  By

  Terry Towers

  Chapter 1

  "Look sharp ladies, here he comes!" Denise announced to the two other coffee shop hostesses, who were busy serving customers.

  As Jessie secured a plastic lid on the coffee she'd just poured, she looked out into the parking lot and spotted Senator Jeff Morrow's black Mercedes glide into a parking slot.

  "Enjoy," Jessie said giving her customer a quick smile as she slid the coffee across the counter to him, while keeping her eyes glued to the parking lot and Senator Morrow as he stepped from his car. Normally, Jessie wasn't into older men and although he didn't look it, she'd read the senator was thirty-three - twelve years her senior - but he was so damned sexy that she made an exception.

  "Thanks," the gentleman she'd just served slid a couple of quarters across the counter to her as her tip and strode off. She swiped the quarters from the counter and tossed them into the front pocket of her brown apron.

  Her bright blue eyes focused back onto the senator, who was nearly at the entrance. Until she had met Jeff several months ago, she'd always thought of politicians as being stuffy and uptight, she supposed that assumption was due to the fact that the majority of senators were over the age of fifty, but Senator Morrow changed that view for her.

  Being one of the youngest Senators and hailed as one of America’s most eligible bachelors, he was easily one of the sexiest men she'd ever laid eyes on. Tall, tanned complexion, short blonde hair, mysterious grey eyes and an amazing body, he reminded her of a surfer stuffed into a very expensive suit. To top off his list of attributes, he seemed to be an all round nice guy. Sure, politicians were supposed to appear friendly and kind, but you could tell simply by looking into his eyes that he was a genuinely good man.

  "Anyone wanna bet he gets Jessie to serve him?"

  Jessie looked over at her co-worker, Denise, grabbed a tea towel and swatted her arm with it. "Oh will you stop, he goes to you guys as well."

  Denise huffed as she rolled her eyes at Jessie.

  "If I didn't know better I'd think he had a thing for our little Jess," came an amused male voice from behind her, which belonged to the coffee shop baker, Anthony.

  "He likes how I make his coffee that's all," Jessie assured them though a part of her secretly hoped they were right and that he did have a 'thing' for her. She laughed to herself; it wasn't as though anything could ever happen between them anyhow. Senators didn't pick up girls that served them at the local coffee shop. Did they?

  As Denise predicted, Jeff headed straight for Jessie. She gave him a sweet, sexy smile as he approached which he returned, sending her heart racing.

  "Looking good today Senator. New tie?" she asked as he approached, already in the process of ringing in his order, a large coffee and a blueberry muffin. The tie - grey with silver specks - matched his eyes perfectly so she had immediately taken notice of it.

  Jeff chuckled, his grey eyes lighting up with amusement as he reached into the inner pocket of his black suit jacket and pulled out his wallet. "So how's my favourite coffee shop girl this morning?"

  "Wonderful, yourself?" She didn't bother to tell him the total, and he didn't bother to ask, he simply slid a bill to her and waved off the change.

  "Fantastic." Jeff watched her intently as she set to work on his order, virtually ignoring the rest of the staff who all had their eyes glued to the two of them, while pretending not to be watching. "How did you know it was new?"

  Snapping the lid of his coffee in place she looked back up at him and give him a coy smile, "I always notice my favourite customers." Leaning to her right she nabbed a blueberry muffin from the display case and bagged it for him, when she straightened back up she caught his eyes. "Besides, you always look good, it's hard not to notice." She cringed inwardly at how that sounded; she was certain it had sounded much better - and less like a cheap come-on line - in her head.

  "I think that's the nicest thing someone has said to me that wasn't intentionally trying to kiss my ass because they were lobbying for something." Jeff responded, accepting the bagged muffin and the coffee as she slid them across the counter.

  "I assure you, Senator, the compliment is genuine and in no way meant to butter you up."

  Laughing outright Jeff nodded. "Well, thank you. So, I'll see you tomorrow morning? Same time, same place?" he inquired, one brow raised.

  Grinning Jessie nodded. As if he didn't already know the answer, but it seemed to be the traditional good-bye they'd established over the past few months so she rolled with it. "Same time, same place," she confirmed leaning her elbows on the counter and giving him a small wave.

  "Good-bye, Jessie." He made a half-turn, seemed to consider turning back to her, but ultimately decided against it, turned fully and strolled out of t
he shop without another glance in her direction.

  "Oh, he totally has a thing for Jessie," she heard Denise comment.

  "I think so too," her other co-worker and roommate, Rebecca, agreed.

  With a sigh, Jessie spun around to face the two ladies. "Senator Morrow is not interested in me. I'm a coffee shop girl for heaven's sakes, what would he want from me?"

  A snickering from Anthony sounded in the kitchen.

  "Besides that," Jessie yelled back to him as her cheeks flushed slightly then turned to the other hostesses, "I heard that he was dating some model. How could I complete with that? Even if he was interested, which he isn't."

  "You didn't hear about the breakup?" Denise asked, as a customer approached her register and she began to pour a coffee for him.

  Crossing her arms over her ample breasts, Jessie leaned her hip against the brown-colored marble counter, cocked her head and raised a curious brow at Denise. "Senator Morrow broke up with the model?"

  After placing the lid onto the coffee cup Denise slid it across the counter to her customer and then turned to face Jessie, mirroring her position, arms crossed, hip leaning against the counter. "No, from what it said in the news, the model dumped him to go back to her ex; he's some daytime soap star or something. I only caught part of the story."

  Jessie huffed, why anyone could dump the Senator was beyond her. She pushed herself off the counter and made her way towards the back room. When she reached the entrance to the kitchen she stopped and turned back to face Denise. "I'm going to go check the food temperatures in the freezers. Give me a shout if you need me."

  "Oh, I would say you'd need to cool down after enduring the red hot tension that was sizzling between you and the Senator."

  Jessie rolled her eyes while wagging her finger at her slightly older co-worker, "You know what your problem is? You read too many romance novels."
