Stars Above Lonely Nights — Michael Brown novel Chapter 20

Nova POV:

“Mmm” I groan as I nestle into the comfort of the mattress, feeling a weight over my waist I shift my eyes downwards and see a large tanned arm draped over me. My eyes widen at the memory from last night of me saying I’d stay with Jax before I smile slightly at the feel of sparks around me.

“That was a good sleep” Kia yawns to me as she wakes.

“Mmhmm it was” I moan in content.

Feeling a slight movement behind me I feel Jax press his hard chest into my back and nestle his face into the dip of my neck subconsciously, as I peer over my shoulder I see his relaxed face out the corner of my eye as he breathes evenly.

Shifting slightly I slide out from under his arm and head to his bathroom, quickly freshening up and borrowing a new toothbrush I found on his shelf i walk back out to see him cuddling the pillow I’d been lying on.

Seeing that’s he’s still deep asleep I hurry downstairs and start with the cleaning of the lounge from last night. After I’d moved the sofas back in place and gathered the blankets folding them neatly, I run the trays through to the kitchen where I run into a few other pack members.

“We’ll clean these and put them away thank you Nova” an Omega called Ruth says taking the trays from me.

“Is there anything else I can help with?” I ask.

“No you go relax you’ve done plenty” she replies smiling letting me know id done my fair share.

Heading back upstairs I use the keycard id borrowed from Jaxs desk and let myself back in quietly. Hearing his door open he opens his eyes blearily blinking a few times before focusing on me.

“Morning” he replies in his deep husky morning voice making me body heat up. “Where’ve you been?” He asks opening his arms inviting me join him.

“I just nipped downstairs and helped tidy up” I whisper as I lie down snuggling into his chest.

“Have you been awake long?” He rumbles.

“Just an hour, I freshened up and thought I’d go help as you looked so peaceful sleeping” I murmur.

Stifling a yawn he replies “hmm best sleep in a long time.”

As he moves onto his back I drape my leg loosely over his as I trace the hard dips of his chiseled front, looking at him he has one hand resting behind his head with his eyes closed and the other rubbing soft circles into the dip of my back.

“What time is it?” He asks.

“A little after 8;30am” I let him know. With that his eyes fly open, “really?!” He exclaims. “I never sleep past 6am that’s a first” he chuckles.

“We have the other packs coming late morning” he mentions after a minute.

“I’m looking forwards to seeing Luca” I smile at him.

“I know” he smiles back, “are you going to tell him about us?” He asks quietly.

“If he asks I won’t lie” I tell him hoping he’d understand.

“I don’t mind Nova” he replies.

“Good” I whisper giving his chest a light kiss.

“Mmm” he moans, shifting to his side he tilts my face up to his as he lowers his lips to mine drawing me into a slow sweet kiss.

As he continues kissing me I feel the heat rise in my belly as wetness begins to pool below, as he breaths in my scent of arousal his eyes darken as he presses his hips closer to mine allowing me to feel his hardened shaft press into my thigh. Our kiss turns more passionate as we both fight for dominance. He bites down on my bottom lip making me moan into his mouth as his hand moves down my front cupping a breast.

“I like this wake up” he breath’s into my ear, his warm breath fanning my face.

Reaching my hand down I trace his abs before slipping it inside his boxers and gently grasping his cock, “me too” I whisper back.

“You’re ruining me” he groans laughing lightly as he wraps me in his arms making me chuckle in response.

“Come on Mr, we should prepare for the others arriving” I say jumping up holding a hand out to help him.

“I’m up, I’m up” he grumbles playfully getting up.

“I need a shower” i murmur, “can I use yours?”

He walks towards the bathroom dragging me behind him, “we’ll save water if we shower together” he states.

“Oh that old line ey” I laugh as I strip my clothes off and jump in before him.

He chuckles before doing the same. As I wet my hair he grabs the shampoo from behind him and gestures me to turn around so my back is facing him, suddenly I feel his hands massaging my scalp as he washes my hair for me. He then grabs a loafer before sponging off my body taking extra care around the tops of my thighs, “if you do that we won’t have time to be ready” I smirk down at him.

“Don’t tempt me” he mutters as he straightens.

“Turn around” I instruct before I do the same for him.

“All done” I whisper dropping a kiss on his shoulder blade and stepping out of the shower.

I quickly dry myself off before getting dressed, turning I see he’s also dressed and is rubbing his hair dry.

“Let’s go get some food” he says running a hand through his damp locks ruffling them into a sexy look.

“Food” I exclaim happily at the thought making him laugh as we head downstairs.
