Sapphire (Steele Investigations) (15 page)

“I’m sorry Rae-Rae.  I didn’t want to jinx it or anything
because I really like him.  His name is Will and he’s smart, funny and
successful, I didn’t want to jump the gun with anything” She says meekly as she
tries to explain. 

“Okay” I wrap her in a hug. “I forgive you, but don’t do it
again. I’m your best friend Kami.  K?”  She nods her head and I release her. 

Elliott returns from the bathroom and slides his arm around
me, pulling me close and kissing my hair.  I wrap my arms around his middle and
breathe in the intoxicating goodness that is him.

I see a waitress approaching with a massive cake and I watch
as she sets it on our table.  Scrawled in fancy letters across the top is:

Congratulations
Rainy & Kami

I look up at Elliott and smile.  He bought us a Grad cake. 
He looks down and smiles back at me, so I reach up on my tip toes and plant my
lips on his. 

“Thank you,” I breathe, my lips moving against his as I
speak.  He doesn’t reply, just gives me an indulgent smile.

“Get a room,” Travis shouts at us from across the room.  I
look to him and he’s smiling big. 

He gives me a wink and then I hear, “Kami and Rae, cut the
cake.  Man’ll die starving waiting for you two.” That’s Kami’s Grandpa Tom.  He
chuckles as his wife tells him sternly to, “mind himself”.  I giggle, grab the
knife and stand there with Kami as we pose for photos and finally (according to
Grandpa Tom) we cut the cake and hand out the slices.  It’s Caramel Mud Cake
with a caramel
crème ganache,
the writing is in dark chocolate and it’s also decorated with whipped cream and
fresh strawberries.  It’s divine.

We’re all
sitting at the table, laughing, talking and sipping champagne when I notice
Kami check her phone.  A big smile spreads across her face as she reads the
message and taps a reply out.  Then she stands and announces that she’s going
to head off.  She makes her way around the table, kissing cheeks and thanking
everyone for coming and for their congratulations.  Finally she makes it me and
leans down to kiss my cheek ‘bye.  “Spill,” I order. “That was Will.  He wants
to meet up and have a private celebration,” she whispers.  I smile and tell her
“have fun and be safe,” then I wink, she laughs and heads out.

I’m happy
that she’s happy.  She deserves it.  Kami Steele is a great best friend and I
don’t know what I did to deserve her friendship. I love her to bits.

We all end up leaving the restaurant not long after Kami
takes her leave.  Before we left Judy made sure that we promised to come by
tomorrow for a family lunch at her place.  Everyone will be there that was here
tonight.  I think it will be a great chance to see my Gran before she heads
back home.  It was great to see her and I make a mental note to visit her soon
seeing as she only lives up in the Mountains, but I haven’t been there since
Thanksgiving.  It will also give us a chance to spend some time with Gramma
Maude before she heads home.  Kami’s other Grandparents live in Colorado Springs
about an hour from us, but Gramma Maude moved to a place near Kansas about ten
years ago so she’s about six hours drive from us here in Denver.

The drive back to Elliott’s place is quiet but comfortable. 
Coldplay is filtering softly through the sound system and Elliott’s hand is
stroking my thigh.  I sigh and relax into the soft leather seat, closing my
eyes I think about how great it was to see everyone today and how I can’t wait
to catch up with them all tomorrow.  Finally we pull into Elliott’s garage and
he shuts off the engine.

“You sleepy?” He asks as he tenderly strokes the apple of my
cheek.

“No…..content,” I mumble the last part, silently praying he
didn’t actually hear it because I can scarcely believe I said that out loud.

I chance a look at him and his sapphire eyes are burning
with desire and something else.  “Content?” he ponders, then, “Yeah”.  He tucks
a loose tendril behind my ear and steps out of the car, coming around my side
to help me out and we go inside.  He’s such a gentleman.  I wonder if our kids
will follow in his footsteps. 
Wait! What? Where did that thought come from?
 I quickly push thoughts like that out of my mind and busy myself taking
off my jewelry and removing my makeup. 

I feel Elliott come up behind me before he wraps his arms
around my centre.  He places little kisses along the top of my shoulder and up
my neck before sucking my earlobe.  I moan softly and move my head to the side
to give him better access.  “Shower,” he whispers in the sexiest husky voice
I’ve ever heard.

 “Yes,” I breathe.  I feel his smile against my neck as his
hand reaches up to swipe my nipple through my black lace bra.

 “I love this.  I should make you shower in it.  How many of
these sets do you own?”

 “A lot,” I reply suggestively.  He steps back from me and
moves to the side.  I feel him run his finger down the centre of my spine and
down my ass crack until he reaches my moist heat.  “Mm so wet for me already,”
he rumbles in my ear as he licks my neck and then gently blows on the wet spot
causing me to shiver.  He continues to rhythmically stroke up and down my
centre while he teases my neck until my legs are wobbling and I’m getting
desperate for release. 

“Elliott, please,” I beg as I try to grind my hips against
his hand.

“No!” He says sharply as one hand comes down and smacks my
ass.  I think my eyes widen and my mouth is open in shock, but mostly I think
how good it feels, and how much wetter my pussy is now.  I need to clench my
legs together to create some pressure.  “You’ll come when I say,” he growls in
my ear.  My nipples pucker instantly at the tone in his voice.  It’s
hot!
 

“Elliott,” I whimper as I try once more to grind down on his
hand, this time though, I
want
him to spank me again..and again..and
again…Oh God I need him..

Smack!
He slaps my ass again and I involuntarily tilt
my ass to give him better access as a low moan escapes my throat. “You like
that baby?” 

“Yes” I moan.  I hear his sharp intake of breath and I think
he’s probably as shocked as I am that I like it.  “You want to be a naughty
girl so your man’s gotta spank you, baby?  Is that what you want?  You want me
to spank you, then fuck you till you scream and that pretty little pussy of
yours comes all over my cock?”

 
Oh.

My.

God.

That is so hot.
  I wiggle my ass and pinch my
nipples in response.  He growls low in his throat and then he says, “Leave your
nipples. I own them now.  You.Are.Mine. Understand Rainy. Mine.  Now brace your
hands on the vanity and tilt your ass back more for me.  That’s it.  Now spread
your legs a little wider. Good girl.  Now you want me make your pretty ass
pink?”

“Yes, please, Elliott, please,” I pant.

He reaches under my arms and roughly pulls the cups of my
bra down, so my breasts prop up.  He rolls one nipple between his fingers over
and over squeezing a little harder each time before he finally heads south with
his fingers.  He runs a finger through my folds, spreading the moisture up over
my clit before he traces a finger to my asshole.  He tickles the entrance and
puts a little pressure there.  I moan and lean back into his finger.  I’m so
turned on; I would do just about anything.  His fingers go back to my core to
gather more moisture before the travel back to my ass where he tickles and rubs
and applies pressure.  I feel his other hand come up to roll my nipples again.
“Beautiful.  So beautiful Rainy.  I want to own every inch of you.” 

“Oh, Elliott.  You own me. Body and soul.” I manage to get
out before suddenly he drops to his knees and his hands are replaced with his
mouth.  He sucks my throbbing clit into his mouth, before plunging his tongue
in and out of me.  Holy shit, he’s fucking me with his tongue.  He spreads my
ass cheeks apart and then spears my asshole with his tongue.  I lean back into
him, rubbing myself over his face.  Then he stands abruptly and I begin to
protest, “Elliott, please,
pleases
. Don’t stop.”

Crack.
His hand comes down on my ass and I throw my
head back and moan.
Crack
his hand makes contact again and again.  My
legs are shaking and my body is humming when I feel him behind me, then he is
filling me.  I scream from the pleasure as he takes me brutally from behind. 
The friction of his body against my spanked arse only heightens the pleasure. 
“Come,” he barks in my ear as his fingers flick my clit.  I scream and convulse
around him as my orgasm goes on and on as he continues to slam into me.  I feel
one orgasm recede as another starts to build.  He must feel my insides tighten
because he begins to rub my clit vigorously.  “Again, baby.  Come again.”  I
fall over the edge, pulsating and milking his cock as shudders tear through my
body.  He bellows out something incoherently as he spills himself inside me. 
He pulls out when he stops coming and turns me toward him, looking into my eyes
with concern, “You okay babe? Was that too much?” 

“I’m totally fine, honey. That was unbelievable,” I state as
he grins down at me.

“My girl likes it dirty,” he mutters, and then he leads me
to the shower where we get clean, and then get dirty again before we get out. 
My man is insatiable.

“Do you think anyone else will be here, or just our family
from yesterday?” I ask as we make our way up the stairs to the Steele’s front
door for the lunch that was organized after our Graduation yesterday. “Not
sure, but I think it will just be family from yesterday” he replies as he takes
my hand and leads me through the heavy wooden door that graces the family
home.  I love this house.  Growing up it was always filled with love and
laughter.  I loved to spend time with Kami here.  We make our way out onto the
back patio to find all the women from yesterday sitting around the outdoor
table drinking wine, while all the men are standing near the grill drinking
beer.  “I’ll be over there,” I say to Elliott, pointing at the table.  He leans
down and kisses me gently before walking over the grill.  “Gramma Maude I wish
you could live closer.  I miss you too much, in fact, I’m going to come and
visit as soon as Rae and I get the shop up and running,” Kami is saying as I
take a seat on the plush cushioned sling back chairs.  “You know as they say
dear, absence makes the heart grow fonder.  You’d be sick of me if I lived
closer and you saw me all the time,” she replies, tapping Kami’s hand gently. 
“Never,” Kami says emphatically.  “Rae, would you come to Kansas to visit
Gramma when the store is up and running?”

“Of course I will.  Actually, I was hoping that y’all would
be coming back for our Grand Opening.  I know it’s a lot of travel for some of
you so we’d completely understand, but I just wanted to give you a heads up
about it.  If you can’t make it, well that just means Kami and I will have even
more reason to visit.”

“A Grand Opening? That sounds amazing, Love.  You two are
going to be beyond successful.  Let me know soon as you know when this Grand
Opening will be.  I’ll do my best to be here,” My Gran says proudly

“We’ll be here for it, girls. Wouldn’t miss it,” Kami’s Gran
tells us, smiling proudly as well

“Yes, I agree with Bea, you tell me when and I’ll do my best
to be here,” Gramma smiles.

“Well my girls, you know we’ll be there, wouldn’t miss it. 
We can’t wait.  We’re all so proud of you both.”  That’s Kami’s Mom talking on
behalf of my Mom and Kami’s Dad.

Kami and I both smile at the table full of women who are
obviously so full of pride for us that it makes my heart hurt with fullness. 

I look over to find Elliott laughing and joking with the
men.  From what I can hear, which isn’t much because the women are now talking
about a fashion trend that even Kami agrees is hideous, they are talking about
the game on the weekend.  Their team must have won because they look pleased
and the conversation appears light hearted. Just before I turn my attention
back to the table, Elliott’s eyes find mine.  A small smile plays on his lips,
before he winks at me.  My heart stutters, but I manage to smile back before he
looks away and I get back to the conversation.

“Judy, can you girls rustle up that salad, Love.  The meat
is nearly done,” Kami’s Dad asks.

We all stand and head to the kitchen to gather the fixings
for lunch.  There’s potato salad, pasta salad, coleslaw, crusty bread rolls and
the men have cooked the steak.  I gather up some plates and napkins and set
them on the table while Kami helps her Mom with the salads.

“Refill?” I ask everyone who is now seated and filling their
plates

“Rae, there’s two bottles of wine in the chiller, could you
bring them out?” Judy asks

“Sure. Beers, boys?” I ask

I’m bent over reaching into the back of the chiller to
retrieve the last bottle of beer that I need when I feel a presence behind me. 
I grab the bottle and turn, shutting the fridge door.  Elliott is standing
there watching me.

“Enjoy the show?” I ask

“Maybe you need to get some more beer,” he grins

“Uh - uh” I laugh, shaking my head.  “You pervert”

“Mmm I love perving on your sexy body,” he rumbles in my
ear, sending shivers coursing through my body and making my nipple instantly
hard.

I wrap my hands around his neck and place little kisses
where his shoulder meets his neck. “You’re the one who’s sexy,” I say softly as
I run my fingers through his hair.

His hand leave my waist and move down to cup my ass cheeks
and then he softly plants kisses from my forehead, down my nose, onto my chin,
then each of my cheeks before his lips finally find mine.  He takes my mouth in
a hot, wet kiss with lots of tongue, before pulling back and saying softly, “We
better get back out there.”
