Foxy on the Run: Book One, Supernatural Bounty Hunters Novellas Page 13


  Jackson had been bandaged by a terrified looking owl shifter before belligerently refusing pain medication and insisting he be discharged immediately. The hospital staff hadn’t wanted to press the point and instead had him sign a waiver and breathed a sigh of relief at his departure.

  After everyone at the warehouse had been arrested it had taken a few hours to get the conflicting stories straight. Given that they had a taped confession of TP ordering the hit on Carlton Detective Leeman had moved heaven and earth to have the charges dropped against Carly.

  Jackson flurried kisses over her jaw before nuzzling her neck. “Purple.”

  He pulled back. “What?!”

  “My favorite color is purple. I love wearing purple even though it clashes with my hair.” Carly patted her frizzy hair self consciously.

  Jackson raised his eyebrows but said nothing.

  “My most favorite food in the world is donuts. I have tried every single flavor of Happy Hearts donuts and I have ranked them in order of how much I like them. FYI my favorite is the root beer one. I watch loads of TV, I couldn’t possibly pick a favorite but I never miss Mike and Molly. I tell people my favorite movie is ‘It’s a Wonderful Life’ but it’s actually Ghostbusters. And I would have to say my biggest fear is caulrophobia.”

  “Caul a what?”

  “Caulrophobia.” Jackson stared at her blankly. “Fear of clowns.” She said quietly.

  Jackson guffawed. “Clowns, really? For a second there I thought you were going to say something serious.”

  Carly felt her cheeks suffuse with heat. “Hey! Lots of people are afraid of clowns; it’s a well known phobia. At least I’m not scared of water.”

  Jackson puffed out his chest crossly. “I’m scared of drowning and not a bit embarrassed about admitting it. On average about ten people drown every day. How many people do you think die from fatal clown attacks every day?”

  Carly scowled. “I’m guessing it’s actually more than you’d think. And to be fair there is more water in the world than there are clowns, so it’s all relative.”

  He kissed her soundly. “Don’t worry I promise to protect you from deadly clowns.”

  She snickered. “Awww my hero!”

  Chapter Twenty

  A couple of weeks later on the night before the full moon Carly and Jackson decided to take a run in Grimm Park as their beasts. Or at least Jackson, having fully recovered from his gunshot wound and feeling frisky due to the time of the month, pestered Carly into coming with him until she gave in. She had not liked the idea at all.

  The fox was puffing and panting. This was not her favorite kind of exercise. She preferred the naked bedroom type of exercise.

  She yelped as the wolf nipped her ankles. She shook her head in annoyance and sprinted away. Feeling a surge of adrenaline she weaved in and out of the trees as fast as her little legs would carry her. Distantly she heard the howl of a wolf and she sped up, her heart pounding mercilessly.

  Finally slowing she panted heavily whipping her head round looking for the wolf. Her fur bristled. He was here somewhere watching her.

  She crept forward slowly, pricking her ears. How can such a huge wolf be so quiet? She heard a rustle to her left and lowered her body ready for attack, wriggling her behind. Out popped a bunny rabbit. On seeing the fox the bunny fled.

  She snorted and out of nowhere a huge grey blur pounced on her knocking her to the ground. Within seconds they both shifted and were playfully wrestling.

  “Foxy I love the way your cute butt wiggles when you’re getting ready to attack. Fucking gorgeous.”

  They tumbled around on the ground until at last he pinned her beneath him. Jackson dragged her hands over her head lacing their fingers together. She wiggled her sex against his and he groaned. He was hard as steel.

  “I love you foxy.”

  Carly giggled and nibbled his earlobe. “Me too wolfy.”

  “I think we should bond.”

  She blinked at him as heat pooled between her thighs. “You do?”

  Jackson nodded and trailed butterfly kisses over her mouth and jaw.

  Carly sighed contentedly before snapping at him. “Well it’s about time!”

  “What?!”

  “It’s been three weeks! I was beginning to think you weren’t interested in bonding!”

  His wolf yowled in irritation as he gulped for air like a fish. “Well you could have said something too!”

  She huffed at him; he was voicing the same sentiments of her fox. “I’m an old fashioned girl. I was waiting for my big, strong mate to make his move. For a second there I thought I was going to die waiting!”

  Scowling Jackson climbed off her prone form. She mewled at the loss of his warm flesh as he grumbled at her. “I can’t win can I? If I’d pounced on you the first day we met you’d have hated me and called me a caveman! Is that what you wanted? Me to throw you over my shoulder and drag you back to my cave and make you mine?”

  She shivered a little as her sex quivered, a primal part of her would have enjoyed that. “You have a cave?”

  Jackson lifted his head a salacious grin on his face. “Why? Does the thought of me acting all caveman turn you on?”

  God yes. “Ugh!” Carly slapped his bicep. “To be fair you actually pounced on me the day after we met.”

  He traced a thumb over her bottom lip chuckling softly. “Foxy, if I remember correctly it was you that made the first move.”

  Carly harrumphed but soon naughtiness fluttered inside her. “Well you were being so passive. I’ve never met such a docile wolf...”

  Jackson and his beast roared. “Passive?!”

  She snickered as his face turned purple. “We’re going to fight like this for the rest of our lives aren’t we?”

  He pulled her toward him so she was straddling his lap. “I think that’s a given.”

  Carly nipped his jaw and licked her lips. Mmmmm cinnamon. “Then you better hurry up and bond with me before I change my mind.” She ground against his swollen member and sighed as heat rapidly spread through her body. Her fox yipped excitedly as his wolf growled.

  Jackson wrapped his hands round her luscious body and crushed his lips to her. He licked her upper lip until she opened for him and he hungrily invaded her mouth. He slipped a hand between them and immediately pushed a thick digit into her slickened channel. She gasped into his mouth at the sudden yet welcome intrusion.

  He twirled his finger inside her as he swirled his tongue in her mouth. She felt her pleasure begin to rise and moved her hips against his hand. His talented hand felt so good but it wasn’t enough. After three weeks of waiting for this moment both she and her fox were on edge, desperate to sink their fangs into his soft neck and taste his sweet blood.

  Carly wrenched her lips away from him. “Please I need you inside me now!”

  His look of self-satisfaction drove her wild. Without waiting she batted his hand away from her sex and swiftly took his cock in her small hands. She worked her hands up and down the hard length, smearing the glistening pre-cum.

  Carly lifted herself up and kneeled over him. He gripped her hips, the beginning of his claws lightly piercing her skin. She rubbed the mushroomed head over her tender clit eliciting lusty moans from both her and her mate. His wolf practically purred at their sexy mate. Fuck she was unbelievable. Feverish with need she positioned the tip at her entrance.

  Resting one hand on his shoulder she looked into his amber infused eyes. “I love you Jackson.” Never taking her eyes off him she plunged down to the hilt crying out as he filled her almost to the point of pain. He roared in ecstasy at feeling her tight inner walls clinging to him.

  Grasping his shoulders Carly pushed her small claws into him as she began lifting herself off him and driving back down, impaling herself on his swollen member. She fell into an easy rhythm, rocking and rolling her hips.

  Jackson bent his head and sucked one of her luscious breasts into his mouth. He teased the pebbled nipple between his teeth
before soothing it with his tongue. His wolf prowled his mind, urging him to take control of their mating. Jackson forced the wolf into submission, for now he was content for Carly to set the speed.

  She arched her body throwing her head back and thrusting her breasts out even more into his willing mouth. The pleasure bloomed within her. This slow rhythm had every nerve ending itching for release but it wasn’t enough.

  “Jackson...” She breathed.

  Without hesitating Jackson released her breast and began lifting her hips and forcing her down his rock hard manhood. He groaned gutturally as she squeaked every time he filled her so snugly. She fit him so perfectly; her sheath was like a tight glove around his cock. She was made for him. The wolf howled at the thought that she was his, and only his. He began quickening his movements and bucking his hips into her. Jackson’s vigorous movements crushed her sensitive clit with every plunge inside, making her twitch at the unbearably exquisite sensation.

  Their fangs descended as their animals went wild with excitement. Carly pressed her body against his, the taut buds of her nipples virtually scraping his chest. She lapped at the juncture between his neck and shoulder and feeling the pleasure thundering inside he did the same.

  Jackson quickened, his shaft became harder and hotter inside her roughly chafing her inner walls. A ripple of pleasure tore through her and they each eagerly sunk their fangs into their mates. With a final powerful thrust he stilled for a second. Then fireworks.

  Their joint release exploded through their bodies as they fervently drank each other’s blood. They clung to each other as their bodies shuddered. The feelings of happiness and rapture flowed between their psyches heightening the already powerful orgasm.

  His wolf was in seventh heaven. Finally the fox belonged to him. Pulling out of her soft skin he roared into the sky. “Mine.”

  Carly pulled away from the bonding bite and in turn her fox crooned “mine.”

  They held each other as their bodies shook from their magnificent climax. Lazily they licked the marks sealing the wounds, their animals at peace.

  Carly giggled in embarrassment and ran her fingers through his soft chest hair. “I can’t believe we just bonded in the park... anyone could have been watching.”

  Jackson breathed in her delicious scent and sighed. “Well if they were they got a good show.” He jerked his softening manhood inside her for emphasis.

  A fresh wave of desire shot through her. “That they did wolfy.” Subtly she began squeezing around him and was gratified to feel him harden. “How about an encore?”

  “You’re insatiable foxy.”

  Epilogue

  Unsurprisingly Carly no longer had a job at Ryntech. TP and the surviving members of her goon squad were being charged with a number of offences including murder, kidnapping, falsifying records, insider trading... the list went on and on. The cops were liaising with the Council of Supernaturals on how to handle the situation.

  Plus there was the fact that Ryntech board members had been content to market a product that would cause violent outbursts. Ryntech’s days were numbered. The people who had made false statements about Carly were charged with wasting police time; bearing false witness and anything else Detective Leeman could think of. The Detective was given full credit for solving the murder and exposing Ryntech. He was duly promoted to Sergeant.

  Noah was also out of a job. At Carly’s suggestion, and Jackson’s reluctant support, Noah started work as a trainee bounty hunter. Even Jackson who still harbored deep seated jealousy for the young white fox had to admit he was smart, quick and brave. It pained him to have to say those things. Noah was thrilled and soon forgot about his crush on Carly and instead took one up on the no nonsense Alma.

  Ling was utterly annoyed at being left out of the action. Again. Jackson had absolutely refused to put her in danger. But in the end Ling was just happy that Carly was okay.

  Work had been flooding into the bail bond agency and Marcus relented to Jackson’s pleading and hired Carly to help out. Marcus was a big softy at heart, he just hid it really well... Besides he soon realized that Jackson was both more placid and manageable when Carly was around, she had a soothing influence on the short-tempered wolf. And much to Alma’s pleasure Carly teased Jackson, remorselessly. It was something the whole office could enjoy.

  Carly received a reimbursement for the bail bond she had to pay, since she was wrongfully arrested and all. She gladly handed it over to Marcus and took possession of her compact car again. After retrieving it from the impound lot.

  Carly was reluctant at first but Jackson finally convinced her to move in with him. Shamelessly he played on her fears, casually reminding her that both he and the goon squad had broken into her apartment. Clearly it wasn’t safe. She agreed to live with him much to her fox’s and his wolf’s pleasure on one condition. He had to stop smoking. He agreed in a heartbeat.

  Jackson gave up cigarettes. Cold turkey. Yes he was a little more grouchy and a lot more irritable for a few weeks but nobody really noticed, and whenever he felt like he wanted a cigarette he just distracted himself with Carly. Swapping sex for cigarettes was much better for his health.

  After years of being shy and retiring Carly felt like she was turning into a nymphomaniac. She couldn’t keep her hands off him. At any given time her arousal would sky rocket and she would drag him away to make passionate love. Not that he was complaining. She quickly made sure she went on the pill. In their hasty desire protection was often forgotten and neither were ready for a pup or a cub.... not yet anyway. That was an adventure for another day.
