He liked me loud.
I panted sharply as the tension spiraled tighter and tighter inside of me. I held back “the loud” so the kids wouldn’t hear.
“What will you do to me?”
Thane’s expression hardened with lust. “I’m going to spread you out on the kitchen table and eat my wife for lunch.”
I bit my lip against a cry as he pushed me closer to the edge.
“Or maybe I’ll have you wait in the annex, naked, and you can play naughty nanny for me.” He grinned wickedly and then drove harder as the fantasy clearly got to him.
The sexy thought of playing out the early days of our affair coincided with one last push against the tension, and I clamped my lips tight and muffled my moan of release.
Thane kissed me as my hard, pulsing tugs of climax wrenched him, and he came with a groan, throbbing deliciously inside me. He released my wrists, and I wrapped my arms around him, not wanting him to pull out just yet. I kissed him, lazy, satisfied, wet kisses, and caressed his back, loving the feel of his skin, damp with perspiration.
He kissed along my jaw and nibbled at my ear.
“Tomorrow we play naughty nanny so I can scream that freaking annex down,” I whispered.
“I’m looking forward to that.” He peppered kisses down my throat.
“You must be exhausted. I wish I could say I was sorry I woke you.”
He kissed my shoulder. “Wake me anytime for that.”
“And if I just need you to make me oatmeal because no one makes oatmeal as good as you?” I half teased. His oatmeal was not like ordinary oatmeal. For a start, his was delicious.
“One: no, don’t wake me for that unless you plan on thanking me with sexual favors,” he cracked. “And two: you’ve lived in Scotland long enough, mo leannan. It’s called porridge.”
“If I keep speaking in Americanisms, will you spank me when we play naughty nanny?”
Thane threw his head back in a bark of laughter.
I hushed him and he shook his head, grinning. Then he saw something in my eyes and raised an eyebrow. Squeezing me closer, he murmured against my lips, “Just when I think I have you figured out, you surprise me.”
“Is that a good thing?”
“Oh, aye, mo leannan. You’re the gift that keeps on giving.”
My laughter filled our bedroom, and my husband had to quiet me with a kiss. As he lingered over my lips, tender, loving, I finally felt drowsy with sleep. “Up, before you fall asleep.” Thane pulled me from the bed and helped me clean up in the bathroom.
When we returned to bed, he pulled my back into his chest and held me in his arms. “Happy here?” Thane asked gruffly.
It had become a ritual.
He’d ask me that two-word question.
I’d answer the same thing every time. And mean it from the tip of my toes to the depths of my soul.
“I’m happy wherever I am, as long as I’m there with you.”
