Chapter 11: Chapter 11: The Sweetest, Most Precious Hug

Jacqueline

He pulled me in close and hugged me so tight. My heart beat hard against my ribs and my knees turned to liquid. And though it felt like my bones were being crushed to powder, it was the sweetest, most precious hug in the world.

No one had ever felt the way I did right now, they couldn't. There's no way another human being had ever felt this intense love, it was not to be borne. I buried my nose in his chest inhaling his scent.

He was a wild mix of leather, his own natural scent and something spicy that all blended together to make the most potent ovary stimulating concoction. My Jake was here, he was really here; I returned his hug the best I could.

The crowded room had ceased to exist the moment he pulled me into his arms, there was only the two of us and nothing else mattered, nothing. Above the thump, thump, thump, of my heart I felt his, and then it happened, that's when I did it.
