Avoiding Commitment (Avoiding #1)(66)
Author: K.A. Linde

He turned around and walked slowly back to her standing only inches away from her, but not touching. "There I’m looking at you," he said his blue eyes staring purposely into her brown ones.

"You’ll never change," she snarled. She couldn’t believe the words had come out of her mouth. She had been thinking them all along, but the words struck too close to home for their relationship.

"Maybe I already have," he growled back walking forward and pushing her forcefully against the cement wall. His hand reached down, hitched her left leg up around his waist, and pushed himself against her. She could feel his erection jumping to life as the adrenaline pumped through their bodies. Her black silk thong brushed against the crotch of his charcoal suit pants causing both of them to shudder with desire.

His blue eyes thawed upon catching her gaze. He leaned forward, pressed his free hand against her bare neck pulling her head away from the concrete barrier, and brought her face less than an inch from his own.

"Uh Jack," she whispered unable to break his steady gaze. He leaned forward his breathe hot on her face. For a split second, she could see herself giving into him right then and there. She could break down all those walls of sexual tension and give him back the control he so obviously desired. It would be so easy just to let go. He was what she wanted after all. Why did it have to be wrong to get what you want?

"Shh," he said covering her mouth with his own. He let the kiss be soft, yet urgent. She sighed against his lips letting them part and his tongue to enter her mouth. The kiss turned feverish and she found that she had pushed her fingers up through his thick hair pulling him closer to her. His desire was growing every second he stood with her opening close to him. She couldn’t even think properly with the way he had her positioned. His hand had pushed the red material of her dress away from her thigh, cupped her bare ass, and hoisted her other leg up around his waist. He pushed against her then slowly, almost teasingly rubbed himself against her.

Lexi groaned not sure how they had ended up in this position, but she didn’t care. She had resisted him so long, and it was just painful to stay away from him. Even when her mind allowed her the moments where she wasn’t thinking of him, he was always there in the back of her mind. And here, in the present, she couldn’t imagine anywhere else she wanted to be.

He bit her lip a little harder than intended and she knew she would have a bruise the next day. Right now she just enjoyed the pain mixing with the pleasure of his hands running across her br**sts and fluttering across her erect n**ples. Lexi reached between them unfastening his belt, popping the button open and shaking the zipper to the bottom. Her hand trailed the length of him through his cotton boxer briefs. She felt him gasp and he shoved himself against her harder than before.

She reacted instantly reaching into his pants and grabbing a hold of the shaft. It lengthened in her hand and he groaned deep in his throat. His hand fumbled for her underwear, ripping the gentle material in his haste to slide them to the side, and pushed his thumb against her clit. He moved his mouth from her lips to her ear and throat roughly biting, sucking, and nibbling as she squirmed against his chest.

Convulsions were overtaking their body, their desire heightening as each second of public fornication dragged on.

Jack abruptly stopped his kneading of her, grabbed his dick in his now wet hand, and forcefully pushed inside of her. Lexi’s head snapped back against the cement wall not even feeling the pain as his erection filled deep inside of her. She clenched her muscles around him unable to believe how incredible he felt. He let his head fall between her br**sts breathing a few deep breathes of desire. Then he lifted his head up and began thrusting inside of her. She gasped at his forceful demeanor. He refused to take it slow as he vigorously pounded into her body. He filled her over and over again. His movements were unrelenting, and she almost cried out, she wasn’t sure if it was with pleasure or pain, but he covered her mouth with his hand. Lexi felt the orgasm take over her body. She tightened around him her body shaking with pleasure, but he never let up. Even as the waves of passion took over her body, he continued inside of her holding out on his orgasm so she could have another.

When she finished, he shifted his hands to a position where he could haul her up and slam her back down onto him. She moaned into his ear as she felt all her weight pushed against his dick as he invaded her deepest core. Her back was chafing against the wall, but she couldn’t care less. She wasn’t the one who had spent several hundred dollars on the dress. Lexi couldn’t believe he was holding out so long, she was almost ready to go again, and his determined, beautiful face looked as if he could go all night.

Just when she thought she might explode again, he abruptly stopped with just the head hovering over her opening. She felt her body react with yearning and she got even wetter. He smirked at her and reclaimed her lips with his own. She volleyed with his tongue whimpering as he paused over her. "Jack," she groaned wiggling her body hoping, praying he would move.

He pushed in a fraction of an inch before pulling back out. She whimpered again breaking contact with his lips and glaring at him. His smirk turned into a full on smile as he leaned into, pushed the head in, and stopped. "Did you want something?" he asked the words coming out breathy and desirous. It was obvious that he wanted it too.

She nodded.

"I can’t hear you," he responded pulling back out of her and moving around in a circle over the sensitive lips.

She moaned deeper trying to push her body against him, but he had her h*ps firmly between his hands and wasn’t letting her have any control. "I said I can’t hear you."

"Jack," she moaned as he dipped in and out of her again. She didn’t want to beg, but she needed him to finish. She was on the brink of a sky-rocketing explosion. He waited teasing her endlessly until she spoke again. "Get inside of me…now," she commanded.

Her words worked like magic and he couldn’t hold out any longer. He forced himself back into her opening and continued his insistent pulsing. She felt like she was going to burst at any second. Her lower half was throbbing with pleasure, and her chest was heaving as her heart raced along ahead of the rest of her body. She closed her eyes and arched her back against him allowing the deepest angle he could reach.

"Cover my mouth," she murmured feeling a scream bubbling up in her chest.

He complied easily. Just as his hand came up covering her mouth, they both exploded. He shoved her body down onto him one last time. His eyes rolled back into his head as they came together. By the time she was spent, she found that she was gasping for air and her body trembling.

After a minute of recovery, Jack pulled himself out of her and quickly readjusted his pants. Lexi slumped against the wall. Her shaky hands yanked her dress back down to its rightful length. Her underwear was ruined beneath the material.

"Jack that was…amazing," she whispered into the night air. She brushed her sweaty curls off away from her face. She watched as he wiped his hand across his forehead taking the thin layer of sweat with it.

"Yeah it was," he said walking towards the door. "But I have to go."

"That’s it?" she asked her voice wavering uncertainly.

"What? That wasn’t good enough for you?" he asked his voice echoing a hint of humor into every syllable.

"That’s not what I mean."

"This doesn’t change anything Lex," he said turning to face her but staying a good distance away from her as if he couldn’t control himself not to take her again.

By the way he said it, it sounded as if it changed everything. She was his again, his for the taking. "I think it changes things. You can’t go back to her after that," she squeaked.

"I’m not sure what I’m going to do."

Lexi gasped. "You mean…"

"Look, I don’t know what to do yet. I just knew that’s what you wanted," he saying eyeing her mussed appearance.

"That’s not what I wanted."

"If it wasn’t, you wouldn’t have let me do it," he told her simply.

"I wanted answers."

"And I don’t have any."

"So what was this?" she asked tears welling in her eyes. How had this turned south so fast?

"This was f**king Lexi. You should know that. You’re really good at it."

His words were cold and calculated as if he were trying to hurt her. It was working. "Fuck you Jack."

"Whenever you want."

"So this is over?" she croaked.

He seemed utterly surprised by this conclusion. "No, baby," he said striding towards her and taking her face between his hands. She didn’t even have the energy to push him away. "I just need more time. This was…great, but it doesn’t change things. Now I really have to go." And with that he strode out of the hallway and back to his birthday party.

Happy birthday to him.

Lexi stayed outside for a minute contemplating how she had allowed things to get so out of control. She had promised herself she wouldn’t let this happen, but when push comes to shove, literally, she couldn’t say no to him. If she were to do it all over again, she’d make the same goddamn mistake. That was the part that miffed her the most. She knew that she should look at it as a mistake, but she couldn’t. He had said that it didn’t change anything, but she knew deep down that it changed everything. If he could have her like this, would he want her any other way? It was a question she had wrestled with for a long time, and still to this day she didn’t know the answer.

She bit her lip in her consternation and cursed loudly forgetting that Jack had bit down hard on the sensitive tissue. The one thing she did know is that she needed to get away from this place. She didn’t care where she went as long as it was far away from here.

Lexi quickly darted back into the bathroom, shimmying out of her sodden, destroyed underwear and chucking them into the trashcan. She pulled her knot of curls out of the messy bun that looked like a disaster after having been scrapped against a cement wall. She applied a thin layer of clear lip gloss hoping that would cover the bruise that was forming, but she doubted it. She assessed her neck noticing a few red marks beginning to form where Jack had been too violent, but she didn’t have any concealer and hoped no one would notice as she snuck out.

There was no way she could atone for her dress though. The back looked like well…it had been dragged across cement. Some strings were hanging free from the material. The silky fabric was dotted with scuffs that resembled a bathing suit bottom after sitting on the edge of a pool for too long. Not to mention the scratches that covered her upper back where her hair had been held high. She would never be able to explain those. Luckily, her back hadn’t bled, but some of the scrapes were so red she was certain had he gone on any longer, they would have. She just hoped her long hair would hide as much as possible.

After deciding nothing more could be done, she snuck back out of the bathroom and made a beeline for the exit. When she got there, she ducked through the double doors and stopped as she almost ran smack dab into Ramsey. She didn’t even know how long she had been gone.

"Where have you been?" he asked concern evident in his voice. "It’s twelve-twenty. I’ve been searching for you everywhere. I had just decided to see if any cabs had taken you home, but no one knew anything. Are you alright?"
