Chapter 18. Relentless Knights
Savior or in this case saviors You think you need them? Think again, cause I do
- Jacqueline
The next day, Percy decided that he would accompany me to my place while Grady rest from the gunshot wound. He hadn't had much sleep and I was worried and glad when Percy suggested it.
We were driven by two go guards, one stayed back at the car, and another one came up with us to my unit. I felt it was unnecessary, but I was not going to mention that to Percy who looked uptight already from the situation with Ella and now
me.
Hearing about Percy's explanation of what happened yesterday, I didn't think Ella was deep in shit. I know she was happy with Brice and I was surprised when I saw her ring, I congratulated her and told her we will set up a date to celebrate with Benji and Gemma.
I was a bit disappointed for not being able to talk to her more, but I assumed she was still in a bad place and needed time with her fiancé.
"Jacqueline?" The familiar voice made my gaze go to the kitchen where I saw Benji in his pink apron and a whole lot of chocolate chip cookies cooling off in their trays on the kitchen island.
"Oh, my Benji, what happened?" I blurted out once I saw him busying himself with a chocolate batter. I haven't seen him in a while, we chat and text, but we were both have been crazy busy with our things. I know he was supposedly dating Jasper, the hot paralegal, I thought he told me they were moving in together.
"I, Jasper, and I..." Benji paused his words when he looked at Percy behind me, who was putting his hand on my waist possessively, then Ben's eyes locked with the guard who was standing by the door trying to be as incognito as possible. "Wait, what are you doing here? who are these guys?"
"Er, I don't usually bring them home. But em... this is Percy from work," I winked at him when I mention work and he nodded with a little smirk. "And uh, that's his sitter." I gazed to the guard still standing by the door, "What?" I asked turning my head back to Percy when he tightened his hold on my waist. "Oh, right, Percy this is Benjamin, Benji, Ben, my sweet sweet roommate who's having some breakdown by the number of chocolate cookies on the counter. Or are you having a bake sale, baby?" Ben bit his lip, blinking his eyes trying to get rid of his tears. "Aww... come here..." I let myself go from Percy and walk towards my sugar-baby-workmate and gave him my shoulder to cry on.
"Oh, Jacques, I missed you."
"I missed you too, Benji," I hugged him tighter before stepping back and talking to Percy. "Do you mind waiting here? looks like Benji needed to vent about his boyfriend." Percy looked at his wristwatch, which only made me more annoyed.
"Look, stay here, I'll talk to him while I pack." I relaxed when he nodded but still told me to be quick about it to which I purposely ignore his words and grabbed Benji directly to my room.
"Who's that? he's hot! and why are you packing?" Benji asked with his wild eyes and I couldn't help myself to laugh.
Oh... god I miss him!
"He's my daddy flavor of the month, mmm, actually for six-month, along with his twin." My face heats up when Benji puts a hand over his mouth trying to drown his scream.
"Oh, my godddd... you lucky baby!! I'm so proud of you!" He hugged me, draw me in his comforting bear hug.
"And how about you? Eh, do you mind we talk while I'm packing?" I was grabbing my suitcases and started throwing my clothes, shoes, school books, laptop, kindle, chargers, basically everything I can put into my suitcase and bags. If he wanted me to pack I was going to pack and let them carry my stuff. Lots and lots of them.
"Wait, why are you packing?"
"Sunglasses, bikinis, sexy undies..." I was throwing more stuff almost clearing my wardrobe. "Jacqueline!"
"Eh, yeah, so it appears my life was in danger yesterday. Hence the sitter guard by the door who's trying hard to blend into the wall." Benji chuckled, but then his forehead wrinkled and I was quick to ease them out with my thumb. "Babe, don't do that, it'll go permanent on you. We still have a couple of more years before Botox." The beautiful man laughed then sit his sexy ass on my bed, watching me as the pile of clothes was getting higher and higher. Benji watched me and his smile grew wider. "You hate being told to pack, didn't you? God, I miss your sassy ass."
"Thank you, my beautiful Benji, now tell me about that single dad of yours. I thought you told me that you're moving into his parents?"
"Oh, god it's awful. I miss him. The man has so much going on in his life, I don't know if I'm a good fit for him. This is all crashing down on me too fast." Benji let a tear run down his cheek and I pause my packing and sit to his side. "It's okay to cry Benji, you don't have to cook every time you're sad."
"He... he bought a house, for us, oh god, Jacqueline. I don't know how to do this. I think I should get back to therapy, refill my meds."
I know Ben's issues with depression, and I hated that he might be going that path again while I have my shit to deal with.
"I think you should talk to him if you think you need to see your therapist do it. Don't wait too long, no one knows you better than yourself."
"I know, I just."
"I love you, Benji, I don't want you to think less of yourself. You're handsome, young, and have so much love to give. If your man can't appreciate that then fuck him. Even if he bought a house for all of you to play house in, don't think less of yourself." Benji looked at me and wiped his tears away, we spent a couple of more minutes hearing him about Tara and Jasper's fucked up mom while he help sit on my suitcase as I make sure the suitcases locked my stuff nice and tight. Benji hugged me one last time before I leave him, he assured me that he'd call and visit his psychiatrist if he needs to. I didn't know how long I'd stay with the brothers but I told Benji to call me and I'd be there for him.
We were back to the penthouse when Percy ushered me to his room. "Grady texted, he already left for the office."
"But he's..." I was going to say he needed his rest but the Percy cut me off with a kiss. "He's fine, just his arm already had a couple of hours of rest. He needs to cover for me in the office while I'm with you."
His guard left us in privacy after putting my bags into the guest bedroom and checking in on each room. I shook my head thinking we were in a penthouse, whoever decided to follow me must have the skills and risk entrance using a private elevator. But then the thought of someone desperate enough to attempt such a scenario just made me quiver.
Percy must've seen my tightened expression when he hug me from behind, whispering. "Hey, princess. It's okay, we're here. Your suitcases are in the other bedroom, I will have the maid put all of your stuff in Grady's walk-in, he has the biggest closet out of both of us."
"Is it because he's older?" I asked trying to lessen the tension in my gut.
"Nope, we flipped a coin," he shrugged and it made me face him. The simple twin interaction with each other made them sound like true siblings instead of the financial business tycoon that they are.
"What?" He asked smiling, looking into my eyes, trying to read what I was thinking about seconds earlier.
"Nothing," I uttered and let him guide me into the bedroom. We had our lunch before we get back to their place. I was relaxed, fully fed, and ready for whatever good times he was offering.
Or not. Stop getting ahead of yourself, Jacqueline. My inner nympho was craving some attention.
"I should be out of your way and let you get back to work..."
Percy didn't let me finish my words when he pushed me against the bedroom wall. And it didn't take long before I was smiling in between his kisses.
He put my hands behind my back and pushed his body flat against mine. My back hit the cool wall, my front to him while he breathes heavily on the crook of my neck. I moaned, whimpering softly as I couldn't unbind my wrists from his hold. His other hand grabbed my neck possessively, tilting my head facing him before shoving his tongue in my mouth.
Oh, my gawwddd...
"Percy," I moaned, knowing was wet already, dripping for him. The man grinds his hardness when he nibbles just under my ear, drawling more pathetic moans from my lips. I wanted him, badly. Enough that my nipples were perking from the friction alone.
We were both naked in record time, I was under him, in his bed, legs parted, face blushing, feeling like a goddamn virgin when he looks at me with his hungry eyes.
"Perv," I teased trying to fit in my jokes and lighten up the mood, but he didn't faze. Percy kneel between my parted legs, his fingers started stroking my thighs then tracing higher to my hips. His hands stay there, while he lowers himself to kiss my belly button. His hands roamed everywhere aside from the one place I needed him the most.
"Fuck," I breathed out a curse when the tip of his fingers touches my folds. Light, feathery touches that made me go crazy with desire and I was moaning his name louder, let out a couple of more curse words, even thrust my hips a bit trying to reach for his goddamn touches.
And just when I thought he was going to touch me, he flipped me. I bite my lip when I hear the condom wrapper ripped open. I was pulsating for him, throbbing with the need to be stretched until he push deep and hard from behind. My waist was held up, my back was pushed down and I was moaning in ecstasy when he fuck me hard and filled me to the fullest until we both climaxed an hour later.
The intensity was crazy, I didn't think behind his calm demeanor there were sexy grunts, powerful thrusts, demanding holds, and hot hot bites to my skin. I was resting to his chest my eyes closed the world around us and I know I was safe in his
arms.
Whatever it is they're doing I was all for getting saved by the brothers. The sex was too hot to pass. I know I was smiling in my sleep and I was okay with that. I will be okay.
Shut up and just sleep, Jacqueline.
