Desert Heat (Complete)
Desert Nightmare Chapter 23

{Vivienne’s P.O.V.}

Ever since J.D. and I had our little intimate moment, he has been acting very strangely. I figured since it was the weekend, we would spend the day together, but he said that he was busy, and wanted me to spend some time with Dani and the other ladies of the packhouse. I thought that I had done something wrong because he was being distant for the last couple of days and could not help but wonder if he regretted anything.

I spent the day with Dani and Monique, playing house and having tea parties. Even though I was worried about the whole thing with J.D. I absolutely loved spending the day with my sister-in-law and my niece. I loved Monique so much and was ecstatic that I could see her whenever I wanted it now that I lived with the pack.

“Tante Vivi,”

“Oui, Monique,”

“Je sis contete ue u sis eeci,” she said in baby talk. Sometimes I could not understand her

“Qu’est-ce que vous avez dit?” (What did you say?)

“Je suis contente que tu sois ici,” (I am happy you are here) Dani translated for me.

“Ohhh…Je suis heureux aussi,” (I am happy too). “Dani, I am so happy that you and my brother are teaching her to speak in French.”

“We do it for your parents, and of course it will come in handy as she gets older.”

“Do you and my brother want anymore?”

“Of course we do, and we’re actively trying. But it’s not like we can just plan it the way humans do.”

“I see. So, how does it work for Monique?” I asked.

“What do you mean?”

“Well, her genes are primarily vampire, so she will obviously live longer than Sawyer.”

“Oh, you’re wondering if people will judge them when Sawyer is old and gray while she still looks like she’s in her thirties.” I nodded my head. “Honestly, we don’t know. We are hoping that her mark will slow down his aging the way it did for your mom, but we can only hope on that. Regardless, they are mates, and I know that Monique will love him no matter how old he looks.” I just nodded my head. “What about you?” she asked.

“What about me?”

“You obviously age slower because of your vampire genes, but we all know your wolf side is more dominant, but Jed is 100% wolf. He is going to age quicker than you.”

“I know, and I don’t care. I think J.D. will look just as sexy when he is old and gray. Unfortunately, I will mark him as a wolf would, so I won’t be able to slow down his aging,” I replied with a slight frown.

“Well, he is a healthy and fit thirty-year-old man, so you two have at least thirty to forty years together, maybe more.”

“I hope so,” I replied and smiled.

“Where is he by the way?” Dani asked.

“I do not know. He just said that he was busy and told me to spend time here in the packhouse.”

“Hmmm … Andre told me the same thing,” she replied. She and I looked at each other, and we both instantly knew that our mates were up to something.

{Dorian’s P.O.V.}

When Allie and I got home from shopping with the pups, we had the nannies take them to the nursery since they were both still knocked out from eating so much at lunch. I had Brandon and Mikey help me with carrying all of their new bed stuff to the bedroom they were going to be sharing.

“Damn, I can’t believe the twins are already getting big kid beds,” Brandon said putting the boxes down.

“For real, I mean, Allen and Sawyer got theirs last year, but seeing the twins getting their own is crazy,” Mikey replied.

“I know, I can’t believe the twins will be three soon, and we have another due in about four months.”

“The twins will be three before the other pup gets here. I’m just hoping they don’t get jealous,” Brandon said. “Sawyer did pretty good with Danica, but Leah and I were able to split our time between the two of them. You have two toddlers, and one infant on the way, that’s going to be hard.”

“I’m not worried,” I said to him. “We have my parents, the nannies, and the twins have Danica and Keegan to keep them occupied while we take care of the new pup.”

“Wouldn’t it be crazy if Gizmo has twins again,” Mikey said.

“As awesome as that would be, Allie has already confirmed only one soul is growing inside of her,” I responded. “Now help me get these frames set up while Allie is downstairs washing the linen sets.” We opened up all of the boxes and got to work.

“f**k, this is why I hate Ikea. Too many f*****g pieces,” Brandon whined while emptying Demarco’s bed frame.

“You think this is bad, you should have seen Allie’s makeup vanity. One drawer set had like fifty pieces to it,” I tell him as I empty Daisy’s bed frame.

“Hey, why are they different?” Mikey asked.

“We let them pick, and this what Daisy wanted. I thought she would go for the pink version of Demarco’s, but she literally shouted, ‘no pink!’ at me in the store.”

“Hahaha! Damn, if she isn’t Gizmo’s daughter,” Brandon replied and started to put the bed frame together. Mikey helped him since Demarco’s had more pieces to assemble. Thankfully both frames only took about forty minutes to complete, and we positioned them on opposite sides of the room. After getting the bed frames positioned, we brought one of the changing tables from the nursery into the new room and got that set up as well. The twins were being potty trained, so we were hopeful that they would start using their big kid toilet once the new pup arrived.

“Dorian be honest man,” Mikey said to me as we made finishing touches to the new room. “Are you nervous about the new pup?”

“Honestly?” they both nodded. “I’m scared shitless. I think I will be scared shitless for any pregnancy, no matter how many kids we end up having. Our first baby was murdered, rest her beautiful tiny soul, and we couldn’t fully enjoy the twins, and now, we have multiple issues going on. We can’t conceal this pregnancy because we’ve already announced it, plus, with dark magic helping our enemies, they’ll replace a way around the concealment.”

“But didn’t the moon goddess promise you and Gizmo that you would never lose another pup?” Brandon asked.

“She did, and I…Well, we believe her, but I can’t help but be scared. You both saw what losing Lavender did to Allie, and how the threat to the twins, although brief as it was made her nervous, and let’s not forget about the kidnapping last year.”

“We get it, brother, you and Giz tend to have it rough, but you know that everyone in this house and this pack will lay down their lives to protect Gizmo and any of the Alpha pups,” Mikey said putting his hand on my shoulder. Brandon laid his hand on my other shoulder and we had a group hug.

“Awww … Such a kodak moment.” We broke our hug and turned to the door to replace Allie standing there with Leah and Sin. The guys and I quickly broke apart but not fast enough. The girls were smiling at us, borderline laughing at us. I looked at the guys, and the three of us seemed to have the same thought. We quickly grabbed the girls and smooshed them between the three of us making them scream and squeal.

“YOU’RE SQUISHING MY BABY!!!” Allie screamed and we all jumped back with concerned faces. “Gotcha,” she said and ran away as fast as she could. “BY THE WAY, I LOVE THE NEW ROOM!” she shouted from down the hall. I looked at everyone left in the room, and we all just shook our heads.

“Why do we always fall for that?” Brandon asked. We hung our heads and walked out to go replace Allie.

{Jedediah’s P.O.V.}

I was looking around the townhouse and made sure that everything that I had planned was perfect.

“You outdid yourself,” Andre said to me slapping my shoulder.

“Do you think she will like it?”

“She will love it,” he assured me. “My sister is a hopeless romantic, and when she was growing up, she always said that she wanted someone to do this for her.” I let out a deep sigh and nodded my head. “I have to admit, I am not happy about where this night will end, but I also have to remind myself that this is how our world works.”

“Thank you for your help man, I know this must have been a little awkward for you, being her big brother and all.”

“I am willing to deal with a little awkward to put a smile on her face.” I gave him a firm handshake and he left. I let out another deep breath and jumped in the shower to get ready.

After I got dressed, I sent a text to Vivienne to let her know that I was home from getting my errands done and that she could come when she was ready. Knowing her, she would bolt from the pack house and come right away, and sure enough, not even ten seconds after I texted her, she replied and said that she would shimmer home. I quickly grabbed the bouquet of three dozen pink and yellow roses that I had prepared for her with Andre’s help and placed it on the coffee table in the living room, so she would see it.

I used my wolf speed and ran up the stairs to the guest room Andre and I put together, where I would be waiting for her.

{Vivienne’s P.O.V.}

When I shimmered home, I landed in the living room and was met with the most beautiful bouquet of pink and yellow roses on the coffee table. There was a note next to it,

Follows the yellow petal road. Bring the bouquet.

I looked down and saw the trail of yellow rose petals, that led to our bedroom. I grabbed the bouquet and followed the trail. When I got to the bedroom, I saw a silk robe and another note.

Let your hair down, strip completely, and put on this robe. Then follow the pink rose petals.

My eyes wandered around the room, and a small smile was starting to form on my face. I put the bouquet down, let down my hair, freshened up a bit, and then put on the robe, and nothing more. I picked up the bouquet again and followed the pink petals that led back out to the living room, and up the stairs to the dining room, where there was a big stuffed dark blue wolf on the kitchen table.

“Gunner,” I said out loud softly. There was another note.

There is a surprise in the fridge for you. Bring that and Gunner with you and follow the white rose petals.

I bit my bottom l*p, opened and the fridge, and saw a box of chocolate-covered strawberries, my favorite dessert. I grabbed the box, picked up the bouquet, and then picked up the stuffed version of Gunner and followed the white rose petals upstairs to the guest floor. They led to the guest room. I opened the door, and the sight before me had me laughing.

The room was covered in red rose petals, candles were lit, and J.D. was lying in the middle of the bed in a seductive pose in nothing but red and white boxers with pink hearts on them. We made eye contact, and he raised his brows in a silly way trying to be sexy, and it made me laugh even more.

“J.D.!?! What are you doing?”

“Trying to be sexy,” he replied and made a kissy face. “Is it working?”

“Oh mon Dieu! Yes, it is working, but you look silly at the same time!” He laughed with me and got off the bed. He came over and took my presents and set them down on the desk in the room. He took my hands and led me over to the bed, and then he back for the strawberries. I was surprised to see he had champagne cooling in some ice, as well.

“Vivienne, I know that it’s been a little under a month since we’ve been together, and I know you’ve been patiently waiting for me. I’m sorry it’s been difficult being my mate, especially with Michaela having dropped by last week. But, the other day, seeing your beautiful body underneath mine, and then on top, made me realize that I’ve been a fool for keeping you an arm’s length away. I love you Vivienne, and I think it’s time we come full circle, and finally claim each other.”

“J.D., you did all of this just so we could mate?”

“I did all of this because I love you, and I promised you that I would make your first time special.”

“Oh, J.D.,” I cupped his face and kissed him. “I love it.” He smiled and kissed me back. He popped the champagne, and poured us each a glass, and then opened the box of strawberries. He grabbed one by the stem and fed it to me. I took a bite and made sure to get some of his finger in my mouth as well. He pulled off the stem, bit one side of the remaining strawberry, and brought the other side to my lips. We both bit down and caught each other’s lips in a k**s.

I had always wanted to know what it was like to share a strawberry and a k**s at the same time, and I have to say, I love it. I took my glass of champagne, clinked with J.D.’s glass, and took a sip. He took my glass and put it back on the desk and got it out of the way. He took another strawberry and brought it to my lips again, but before I could bite down, he took it away and then took a bite himself. The juices were dripping, but instead of keeping it from dripping everywhere, he dragged the juices down my lips, my jaw, my neck, and towards my chest.

He gave me the strawberry, and while I ate it, he licked the trail of strawberry juice in the same direction he spread it on me. I couldn’t eat the strawberry without almost choking from the pleasure his tongue was giving me. I felt him untying my robe and lick his way down even further than the juices went.

“J.D.,” I m****d when I felt something cold against my n****e. I looked down, and he was rubbing the tip of another strawberry around it. He bit the tip of the berry, and let the juices drop on top of my breast, and I felt the juice sliding down my n****e. He then did it to the other side, before cleaning me off with his tongue. Only when he got to my n****e, he took it in his mouth and started to suckle on it.

“Ahhh … Oh … Mmm …” I m****d. While he sucked on one n****e, he continued to circle the berry around the other.

“Mmm … I don’t know what tastes better,” he said while moving to the other n****e that was drenched in strawberry juice, “Your porcelain skin, or this strawberry.” I bit my l*p from how amazing it felt. When he finished, he brought this head up and kissed me deeply while pushing off the remainder of my robe. He gently threw it aside, but suddenly his face darkened.

“What’s wrong?” I asked him.

“I thought I said strip and wear only the robe.” I gave him a confused look. “You’re wearing panties.” I looked down and saw that I was in fact still wearing panties.

“I don’t …”

“Shhh … I think I may have to punish you, mon Coeur. You did not follow the instructions.”

“But I…” before I could even finish my defense, J.D. pushed me onto the bed flat on my back and quickly spread my legs. He took one look at my panties, and his eyes turned black. He gripped them and swiftly ripped them off of my body making me squeal.

“I wonder how I should punish you, mon Coeur,” he said as he eyed me up and down. “Hmmm…I have an idea,” he said and reached for another berry. I watched as he ate the chocolate off around it and bit the tip again. He gave it a small squeeze above my pelvis, and I felt the cold juice hit my clit perfectly making me gasp. He let the juice from the berry coat me completely before biting down on the berry and getting down on his knees. He grabbed the inside of my thighs and pushed my legs wide open, and what he did next made me gasp loudly and grip the sheets of the bed.

J.D. started to rub the berry up and down the slit of my folds and hit my clit with every movement. He did this over and over. Just rubbing the tip of the berry over my slit, circle around my clit, and rub it down again. I heard him chuckle as he ate the berry.

“f**k, strawberries will never taste the same again. f**k whip cream or chocolate, I need it coated in your nectar. Now, let’s see how much sweeter your p***y tastes.” Before I could even reply to anything, I felt his tongue lick me all over and my eyes rolled to the back of my head almost immediately.

“J.D.!” I m****d his name as I felt him suck on my clit. I could hear everything he was doing to me as well as feel it. I never expected this. I never expected for him to use a berry as a toy to get me aroused, coat me in its juices, and then eat my p***y as if it were a berry.

“So.f*****g.sweet!” He growled and sucked even harder. While he was doing that, I felt him insert a finger and instinct made me grab my breasts. He pushed in his finger all the way in before pulling it out slowly. He pushed it in again, and then pulled it slowly.

“Ohhh … J.D.! Please! Faster!”

“Nope, this is your punishment for not following my instructions,” I gasp and look down at him. His eyes were dark with l**t, and his canines were out. He nipped at my nether lips, and I watched as he inserted a second finger, and sucked my entire p***y into his mouth.

“OHHHH!!!” I m****d loudly and started to grind my h**s into his face.

“Don’t.move. Or I stop altogether.” I stopped what I was doing, and he took control again. He moved his fingers a little faster, and I could feel my o****m coming. I needed to c*m. I had to c*m.

“I’m cumming,” I whispered. No sooner did those words leave my mouth, J.D. stopped and backed away. I looked up at him in shock and disapproval, but what I saw was a smirk on his face.

“I think it’s time for the main course, don’t you?”

Oh…
