Excerpt:
I stand inside my walk-in closet in my
black heels, thong, garters, and lace bra, debating on what to wear on this
warm, humid, June evening. Short, black, strapless dress or long, silk dress
with spaghetti straps? So many
choices. James loves my legs and
shoulders, so I go with the short, strapless dress. Pulling it from the rack, I
hold it up in front of me and close my eyes, inhaling a deep breath. We can make it work.
"Brie."
His gravelly voice startles me. Whirling
around, I steal a breath when I see his heated eyes rake over my body. His gaze
on me never breaks. I itch to touch him,
and I itch for him to touch me, but he controls what happens between us, and I
eagerly comply. I’ve missed the
connection so badly that I'd do anything.
"You scared me," I whisper.
Smirking, he pulls at his tie, yanking it
loose and works the buttons on the front of his shirt, exposing his muscular
tanned chest as he closes the space between us in two long strides. Taking the
dress from my hands, he returns it to the rack and rests his hands upon my
hips.
"God, you...you look so damn
good." He tilts my chin with his finger so that our eyes lock and runs the
outside of his hand against my cheek. I can already feel his erection poking my
belly as I readily press harder against him.
I
don't want to go out to dinner; I want him to take me right now on the floor in
my closet.
"Yoga does wonders," I flirt,
rubbing my hands down his chest as I eagerly and seductively peel off his white
dress shirt, letting it cascade to the floor. This is how it used to be.
Spontaneous and hot. I didn't expect this change in him, but I'm not going to
sit here and question it. I have the old James back, the James that I fell in
love with in college. I don't want to
take things slowly, but I know I have to. I can't appear needy and desperate,
even though I want us to get through this. Isn't that what created the distance
between us? Needing him too much?
He scrapes his teeth across his bottom lip
and pulls me tighter against his body.
"The reservation is at eight. I would love to show you what you do
to me when you wear black." He smiles that smile that robbed me of my
breath six years ago, and that little dimple appears on his right cheek that
teases me to kiss it. How I've missed
him smiling at me like this.
His
usual clean-cut face now has a hint of stubble, and his hair is ruffled and has
grown a little bit more, making him appear sexier and casual. Is this the first
time I've noticed this change? I can't remember because it’s been a while since
we spent real time together. I'm guilty of googling "the signs that your
spouse is cheating." At the top of
said list is that the spouse changes or alters their appearance to please the
new love interest.
Stop
it, Brie! He's taken on more cases at the
office. He just doesn't have time. That's all it is. Enjoy yourself. Live in the moment.
I tug on his hair and meet his gaze,
swatting all my insecurities and assumptions out of my mind.
"What is it that I do to
you?" I taunt, as the rapid beating
of my heart drowns out everything except the sound of his voice.
"Let me show you," he groans as
he cups my ass, hoisting me up with his powerful arms. I wrap my legs around
his waist as he pushes me up against the wall.
I feel a powerful shot of heat course throughout my body at his display
of aggression and desire for me.
The
wall will work, too.
He brings up his hand and pinches one of
my hard nipples through the lace, causing me to arch my back into him.
"God, your beautiful tits." He pulls down my bra, exposing my breasts
to him. Taking one of my aching nipples into his mouth one at a time, he licks
and sucks each one as I pull his hair.
I sense lust, ownership, and desperation
growing between us. I grab the back of his neck and guide his face to my lips
as he kisses me hard. He feels my tongue, and he opens his lips to allow me in,
and we begin to kiss earnestly. His hand
travels down between my legs, making its way to my already wet core. When his
thumb hooks under the edge of my thong, pulling it aside and his finger enters
me, I gasp, writhing over his finger.
"Oh, shit. So fucking wet, Brie,” he
whispers into my ear as he presses me harder against the wall. I hold myself
while he unbuttons and pulls down his pants and boxers so that they pool at his
feet. "Damn, I need you, babe. Like right now."
He grabs my ass, pulling me down over his
erection. He enters me fully, and I gasp
in elation because it's been so long since we've had sex like this. Since he's grown distant, sex between us has
been forced and detached. Is it because
he is cheating? I wonder if he should
use a condom. If he were messing around, would he suggest using one? I
don't care. I don't care. Don’t think
about it. I need him. I need James now.
We become frantic. I pull down his head
toward mine and kiss him, letting the rhythm of his thrusts set the pace.
Everything accelerates and intensifies our breathing, his thrusts, and my
moans. I feel my walls clench around him with each thrust, clinging to him like
my life depends on it, for what I know are only several delirious minutes, but
I want it to be forever. He plunges both fast and slow so I can feel every inch
of him, and he can feel all of me before we come together.
Breathing heavily with my arms still
around him and my legs wrapped around his waist, we look at each other and
smile, and all the fear and uncertainty I sensed in me before dissipates.
"That's what you and black lacy
things do to me."
"Thanks
for the reminder." I sigh softly, tugging at his hair.
