“You sure you’re not punching above your weight?”
“You really don’t like your balls.”
“I don’t want to see you get hurt.”
“You won’t.”
I’d never lost a case, and I was sure Byron Crowne wouldn’t be any different.
But at night, under the covers, I let him win.
In the dim zone between reality and dreams, where no one could see, I let him into a fantasy.
I sat at a bar in a short silk dress I had in my closet. It was navy blue with cap sleeves and hugged my body just enough to confuse business and pleasure. I wore it to official functions with pearls and my red-soled stilettos, letting one dangle off my toes when I crossed my legs.
Fantasy Byron sat on the next stool. Boldly, he put his hand on my knee, uncrossed it, and pushed my legs open. The shoe fell off. I tried to close my legs, but he was strong, and when he forced them open anyway, a shot of pleasure ran through my body. I let him push his hand under my skirt to my soaked panties and press his thumb against my clit as he said, “Courtesy once is courtesy enough.”

APPENDIX - QUARANTINE COUPLES
If you’re in my Facebook Group, you know that during the lockdowns of 2020, I’d do anything to write something, because I couldn’t write nuthin’.
When Corinne Michaels started posting little snippets of her favorite couples as they managed the quarantine, I stole her solution (with permission).
I’ve enclosed them here.
They’re unedited, messy, written on the fly in lazy syntax.
As my son likes to say, “Don’t @ me.”
If there’s a couple you’re curious about, but haven’t really met, I put a link to it at the bottom of each story. All of them are free in KU, so if you’re a subscriber, give them a try.
I hope you’re doing well, and reading (or anything) kept you sane in the first half of 2020.
JONATHAN AND MONICA
I know there may be some concern about what Jonathan and Monica are doing during the California lockdown.
This is an ongoing struggle, since he'll always be immunocompromised and trying to alpha his way out of that fact. Monica knows him well enough to stop giving him a hard time when the bedroom door is closed.
He can get it all back by telling his wife to strip down and stand still while he inspects every inch of her body. When he tells her to get on her knees and put her chin on the floor, he'll just sit behind her and wait, watching her get wetter and wetter. By the time he's inside her or spanking her ass red, the whole outside world is shut out.
He's the king. She's the goddess.
They're closed up in their kingdom until further notice.

If you got through this entire collection and still haven’t read Jonathan and Monica’s story…for the love of God…pick this up. There’s so much more happening under the surface here.

ANTONIO AND THERESA
The Capo and his Contessa are still in their Temecula olive orchard. They have their two adopted Italian kids with them. Theresa homeschools math and English. Antonio teaches Nevio bocce in the evenings while Simona runs wild up the trees. Theresa fears her daughter will always be a little feral. This doesn't concern Antonio too much.
Antonio is in touch with his family back home. Everyone's fine so far. Fingers crossed.
When both kids are asleep, Antonio and Theresa walk deep into the orchard, where they have a table and chairs set up so they can watch the moon rise and set.
Last night, Theresa suggested sitting home was getting her husband a little round in the jaw. He pushed her against a tree, yanked her pants down and fucked her from behind. He said he'd stop if she took it back.
She wouldn't. She was being nice, saying "round in the jaw" when she meant, "Soft and fat."
Predictably, he fucked her harder, until tree bark indented the soft pads of her hands and she screamed with an orgasm that shook the olives off the branches.
So, anyway they're doing okay.

Antonio will forever be my possessive, passionate, Italian lover.

CORRUPTION
GABRIEL AND CARRIE
Gabriel and Carrie feel like they can breathe again.
Rosa's twelve, and the only daughter of a single mom who struggles with two jobs and has no money for music lessons. But Carrie heard her play on a borrowed violin at church, and told her husband in no uncertain terms, that if he didn't set her up with lessons and an instrument he was sleeping on the couch.
And if he did? She'd suck his dick dry after every lesson.
He's a man, so he did it, and Carrie joyfully kept her promise.
When Rosa got sick, they has sex a LOT because it was a distraction from worry.
Last night, right before everyone locked down on the block went onto their balconies to sing, cheer, and make noise, Rosa's mother called in tears.
Her daughter's home and on the mend.
Gabriel went out onto the balcony at the usual time that night, but this time instead of half-hearted applause, he joined his wife with his cello and played Beethoven's Ode To Joy. The lady across the street and the kids downstairs sang the choral parts, and without missing a beat, everyone else joined in whether they could stay on key or not.
It was beautiful, and of course, Carrie sucked her husband's dick dry, just like she'll do (joyfully) for the rest of their lives.

PRETTY SCARS
CADEN AND GREYSEN
It came to me this morning to wonder what Caden and Greysen were doing...considering they're both doctors.
Since they moved out of NYC to SoCal, they aren't in the center of it. Greysen does video consulting with her psych patients (which she hates because it lacks a human touch, but what are you gonna do?)
Caden works at a VA hospital and it's been a challenge. He sees emergency patients all day, for days on end. He sleeps in the garage so he doesn't expose his wife and son.
Last night, after an 18 hour shift, he saw the light go on through the sliding glass doors between their room and the patio. The curtains were drawn and he was like...yeah no.
So--still in his scrubs--he crossed the yard and rapped on the door. In a long t-shirt, Greysen opened the curtains, and when she saw her husband's tired face, her heart melted. She put her hand on the glass, and he put his on the other side.
He put his mouth to the glass, and she kissed the other side.
But he wasn't kissing the glass. He pulled back, and wrote NAKED in the cloud he'd left behind.
She stripped off the shirt. He nodded. She stepped out of her underwear.
Now, fully naked, he blew another cloud onto the glass.
SHOW ME
She's not quite sure what he means, but she's good and ready to do whatever he wants.
Caden indicates the floor, and she smiles, gets on the floor with her knees bent, spreading them slowly to show him what's his.
His scrubs don't hide a single inch of his erection. He folds his arms and pushes his hips forward as if he needs her to see it. Which he does.
With a flick of his chin, he tells her to continue. She puts her fingers between her legs, where she's already wet and swollen, watching for his approval as she gets closer and closer to orgasm.
He leans close to the glass. Blows on it. Writes.
COME
And she does.

ADAM AND DIANA
Adam and Diana live in New York City, so yo
u bet your ass they're taking this thing seriously.
Really.
And for a woman who likes to think there's a stranger watching her on the other side of a mirror, Diana's been a real trooper.
Adam has a plan, though. He set it up very carefully. In secret. Then asked a series of questions about what she'd like to do when the quarantine ended, to make sure she'd like her gift.
On the night of her birthday, he taunted and teased her body, then opened up a Zoom meeting on the computer.
No faces. Just names in black boxes. Before she could ask what was going on, Adam bent her over the desk, yanked her hair back and told her to accept the birthday wishes of their new friends. Then he lubed her ass (damn straight he had it all ready) and fucked her in the ass while each person watching them sang Happy Birthday.
She thanked these faceless strangers with an earth-shattering orgasm.
