Chapter 130

Megan stayed out of Jon’s way for the rest of the week. He saw her black mood and kept to himself, flipping Richie the finger when he received an I-told –you-so-look.

Standing outside she watched as Jaden rode his bike. Jason was finally on his way, bringing Blaze back.  He had an emergency and a full week, so he was forced to delay Blaze’s homecoming with a few days.

Jon felt his irritation rising when he heard that Jason was making his way to his home. At least his son would have his pony back…

Jaden came racing back.

“They’re here! They’re here!”

“Slow down peanut! “

They pulled in slowly, Jason waving as he came to a standstill.

Jon and Richie were making their way back to the mansion when they saw him stopping.

Jason’s tall body slipped from the seat, the smile on his face focused on the Megan.

She walked closer, lifting her face for his kiss.

Jon grumbled obscenities under his breath and Richie threw him a shitfaced grin.

“Just a friend, just like Dot, remember bro’?”

“Oh eat shit asshole. I cant stand that fucking guy. Everytime I see him I wanna smash his face.”

“Uhuh…they call that jealousy.”

“You haven’t seen this fucker! He undresses her with his damn eyes.”

“And? You do the same. Hell I do it..she is a beautiful women Jon, get over it.”

A murderous glare swung his way.

“Hey! I’m just saying….I’m not doing it anymore. Geesh, hell keep your underpants on!”

“I don’t wear any, asshole.”

Rolling his eyes he laughed.

“Oh I forgot….you can’t afford any.”

“Look there..Look! See what I fucking mean!? He cant keep his paws off her!” Jon was almost roaring now.

“Shit bro’ tone it down wont ya?”

“Jason…hey…I’m Richie.”

They shook hands.  Jason was actually a stand up guy. He liked him, obviously it was jealousy talking where Jon was concerned.

Jaden was in seventh heaven, chatting away to his pony he led him away, eager to show him his new home.

Megan smiled as she watched the pair walk off. The pony had a slight limp and his legs was still covered up , but he was so much better! Thank the Lord!

“Why don’t we go in? I baked a rich chocolate cake, you could all do with a slice.”

Jason’s confused frown was lost in the moment.

“Oh honey I’m so there!” Richie smiled enthusiastically.

Slipping her one hand onto Richie’s arm and the other onto Jason’s they left Jon to grovel behind them. He was positively fuming, his fist balled painfully and he almost shattered his teeth. 

He found them all in the kitchen, leaning against the cupboards chatting and laughing as she kept herself busy with the coffee and mouthwatering cake.

Jason seemed somewhat flabbergasted but he didn’t give a damn to find out what it was about.

Dishing each a generous slice of cake, Jason smiled appreciatively at her.

“You sure can bake, Sweetheart.  Is this the same cake you made me on my birthday?”

“The one and only.”

“Richie’s you wont stop till its all gone. I don’t have a sweettooth but hell this woman has a touch when it comes to baking!”

Megan’s eyes swung towards Jon.

“Would you like a slice?”

“Thanx baby.” He slipped that one in on purpose.

Jason forked another bite into his mouth, his eyes resting on Jon’s cold glare.

Placing a steamy cup of coffee in front of each man, she sat down sipping slowly on her own.

“You not eating cake?”

“No, I’m keeping away from chocolate since my migraine attack.  I’ve been feeling a little queasy lately, just the up and downs of a migraine sufferer.”

“Oh hell. You had an attack again?” Jason watched her sympathetically, his hand stroking her shoulder gently.

He was familiar with her baking expertise and her problems with migraines? What else..her periods?

Scraping back his chair, he dunked the plate in the basin.

“I have to excuse myself. Thank you for bringing the pony. I’ll be in touch with you. “

Now it was Megan’s turn to be confused. He didn’t like the man but he will be in touch?

“Standing up, she shook Jon’s hand.

“Good to see you, Jon.”

He threw Richie a heated glare. Shoving the rest of the cake inside his mouth, Richie stood up.

“Well the boss has spoken. Meg, honey, please make sure there is some left for later ok? Hell that was nice!”

He smacked his lips together appreciatively, still tasting the richness of the chocolate. Megan giggled, using a finger to wipe some chocolate from his mouth.

“You missed a spot big guy!”

“Thanks babe. Always looking out for me.” He winked.

Greeting Jason, he was out the door.

An hour or so later, Jon saw them coming out of the house. He was going crazy, all sorts of scenes played in his mind. Megan locked in the mountain of a man’s embrace, Jason’s face between her breasts…oh fuck..I’ll kill him!

“Ok so he’s leaving. Why did you insist we come back to the studio if we didn’t even work since we got here?”

“I cant be with that man under the same roof for longer than  5 minutes before I want to smash his skull.”

“Holy shit. He got to you real good huh? Hell what did the poor bastard do? “

“Didn’t you see them? He knew everything about her! God I think they slept together.” The thought of them making love burned a hole in his stomach, his anger shot like an electric current through his veins.

“What if they did? Look at her Jon. She is a desirable woman. You cant expect her to stay celibate for the rest of her life?”

Jon knew Richie was right and that he was overreacting but this guy managed to push his buttons.

~~

“So it’s a date then?”

“Next week Friday. It’s a date.” She assured him after he kissed her goodbye, his huge frame blocking the late afternoon sun as he scooped her up in his arms.

He let her go against his will, enjoying the soft curves pressing into his, her feminine scent wafting into his nostrils, setting his blood on fire. He wanted this woman for his own, as soon as humanly possible!

She didn’t notice Jon coming closer, nor did see the blue of Jon’s eyes spitting fire as he watched the intimate moment between them. Jon grew icy cold when he read the naked desire on the man’s face.

Richie’s oh shit said it all.
