87 Issue #12

Jack walked through the mansion until he arrived outside of Emma's room. Without even knocking, Jack walked in and was reminded of the first morning he tried to make her breakfast.

Jack was greeted by the sight of Emma's naked body posing in the mirror. From his angle, the woman couldn't see him but he was sure that she knew about his presence. He was giving off her favorite scent and setting off strong psionic emissions.

Emma slowly turned around and greet Jack with a small, subtle smile on her face.

"Hello, Jack. I'm guessing your time with the Avengers is finally up?" Emma asked as she walked over to the vanity to pick up her robe that was lying on the chair.

Jack watched stunned once again. No matter how many times he saw the woman's body, she was able to stun him. But when he saw the playfulness inside of her eyes, he wanted to change the current situation.

'My turn to be the one who teases you,' Jack thought to himself as he watched Emma cover her body with a robe. No longer looking at her bare body, Jack was able to move more easily.

Jack walked over to Emma and swept the woman off her feet before carrying her bridal style. Stunned, Emma forgot to react since she was not used to Jack being the dominant one.

Taking advantage of her being stupefied, Jack threw Emma onto the bed before jumping onto the woman's body. Pressing her beneath him, Jack looked at Emma's slightly blushed face with a smile.

"Emma. I'm about to give you 3 ultimatums. If you don't choose anything, I will choose for you," Jack threatened

Emma rolled her eyes and gave up resisting. She thought that if she played along, this would end sooner.

"Fine. What is your first ultimatum?"

Jack smiled down at Emma and planted a light kiss on her lips

"I am going to announce our relationship tomorrow. You can either be my sister-girlfriend or my normal girlfriend. Make your pick."

Emma let out a sigh of relief because she thought that Jack would put her through more difficult situations. The answer to this one was very simple.

"Although some people might be interested in incest, that was never really my thing. We can be normal boyfriend and girlfriend," Emma answered easily

Jack smiled before he gave Emma a deep, yet shot kiss

"I plan on marrying you. We can either get married within this year or by the end of next year. Please make your choice."

Emma rolled her eyes at Jack once again.

"This is how you propose?" Emma asked with some disappointment in her voice

"No. This is not my proposal. This is just me making sure I have a definitive timeframe after I propose. Now pick," Jack explained before getting back in the main topic

Emma bit her lip and thought about the answer. She was still getting used to being part of the X-Men and had a lot of other matters to deal with such as her sisters and 'daughters'. Thus she choose to get married the next year.

"We can get married by the end of next year," Emma gave an answer reluctantly

Glad to get a definitive answer, Jack gave Emma another deep kiss. This one lasted for over a minute unlike the last that only lasted a few seconds.

Jack only stopped kissing the woman because he wanted to give her a chance to breathe easily.

"Last question. I want to practice polygyny but I also wish to be fair to you. So we can either practice polygyny or we can practice polygamy but I will kill any man that dares to get close to you. Please make your choice," Jack asked with a dangerous glint in his eyes

If Emma dared to choose the latter, Jack would go and kill the 100 men she was closest to besides him and Christian and slaughter them all.

Seeing the look in Jack's eyes, Emma's heart began to pound. She found the possessiveness very attractive in him.

"Fine. But no celebrating my birthday," Emma made her own demand so it would not seem like she just gave in to what he wanted

Understanding her thought process, Jack nodded before looking at the clock next to them and seeing that it was still a few hours until midnight.

'I can celebrate it next year instead.'

Excited that she agreed, the pair began to have a passionate night together. For the next few hours, their bodies were entwined as Jack and Emma made enough noise that the Professor had to clear out all the rooms that were around them.

The pair were not done until around 2 am. Jack looked down at Emma's sweaty and flushed body before walking into the bathroom and running a bath.

Once it was read, Jack carried the barely conscious woman into the bathroom and put in her the tub before he began scrubbing her body clean.

Once the woman was all clean, Jack picked her up out of the bath and began drying her off. Seeing her smooth skin fresh out of the bath, Jack felt like going for another round but when he saw how tired Emma was, he quickly gave up on the idea.

Instead, he dressed the woman in another one of her robes before carrying her back to bed and placing her in the changed linen. Jack bent down and gave Emma a peck on her cheek.

"Happy Birthday, Emma. Let's have a wonderful lifetime together," Jack congratulated the woman before giving her his own birthday wish on her behalf.

After kissing Emma goodnight, tucked her in before getting dressed and flying out the window.

"Already on one of your drunken rides, Tony? Makes the ass-kicking I'm about to give you feel so much more deserved," Jack thought to himself as he followed the tracking he had on Tony's suit
