  “I’m not with you for your money. I hope you realize that.” Del grinned, returning the kiss. “Also, I hope you realize that I don’t own any secret hotels or anything. Sorry babe. Nothing this exciting in my possession.”

  Still with her lips inches away from the blonde’s, Raelin murmured, “Your fingers are exciting and your tongue can make me lose my mind, not to mention that I love your lips. Ever had a fantasy to do it in a bank?” the brunette teased.

  “No, but I’m sure I could, given half the chance,” Del said slyly, nipping playfully at Raelin’s lower lip.

  “Does that door have a lock?”

  “Yes I may have checked when I walked in out of habit,” Del said sheepishly. “Been caught in traps like that one too many times.”

  “Lock it.” Raelin stood up and started up unbutton her shirt while tugging it out of her skirt. “Wanna get lucky, baby?”

  Del was out of her chair before Raelin had finished her sentence. She threw the deadbolt on the door, quickly returning to Raelin, kissing her fiercely as she started on her own shirt. “I’m not sure what’s gotten into you exactly, but I think I like it.”

  Reaching out, Raelin unbuttoned Delaney’s uniform pants, pushed them along with her underwear down to the floor, and then slid in three fingers to her wife’s already soaked center. “Ah baby...have I told you yet how much I love you in your uniform?”

  “Mmm yes, but please don’t let that stop you from showing me,” Del groaned, her own hand sliding up Raelin’s thigh, under the loose skirt she was wearing and directly into waiting heat. She turned them around so Raelin was pressed against the desk, her skirt bunched unceremoniously around her waist, shirt hanging open. Del moaned at the sight.

  Sliding her fingers into Delaney, Raelin wrapped her legs around the blonde, pulling her against her. “See something you like, baby?”

  “All of you, but more specifically the way your eyes widen when I do this,” Del breathed, sinking three of her own fingers into her witch, curling them as she moved. She felt her own body contracting around Raelin’s hand and had a hard time keeping her eyes open to watch her lover as they moved together.

  “Aw shit...cum with me Del.” Raelin didn’t understand why she was acting this way, but she had to have Delaney right then. Rubbing her thumb across the blonde’s clit, she had to place her mouth over Del’s and swallow her moan.

  Del knew her witch was close, and she was right there with her, so when she heard the gentle command her body followed. She felt Raelin kiss her, swallowing her moan as she felt the pleasure rush through her. She let her own thumb graze over Raelin’s clit, the feel of her lover’s release only serving to intensify her own.

  Shuddering her release, Raelin moved her lips down to Delaney’s neck, kissing as she went. “Goddess, I love you.”

  “Mmm, I love you too, Darlin’,” Del sighed, her body still alive to Raelin’s touch. She pulled her hand from Raelin’s underwear, licking the fingers clean as Raelin’s lips danced over her skin. She tilted her head to allow Raelin more room to play, and a flash of black caught her eye in the back of the deposit box. “Hey Rae, you missed something in the box,” she breathed as Raelin hit a sensitive spot.

  Sucking lightly, the witch marked her Chief, knowing that her shirt collar would cover it. “Later,” she murmured.

  “I hope I haven’t worn you out already. I’m not sure I’m done with you yet.” Del grinned, noting Raelin’s lazy movements.

  “Not anywhere close, but we can’t stay in here much longer.” Raelin reached down and pulled out a small black velvet box. Opening it, she found a platinum and diamond eternity ring and in the lid of the box, there was a small note.

  ‘Raelin, this was to be your mother’s ring. I’m sure that she would want you to have it. Arthur’

  Tears sprang to her eyes and she covered her mouth with her hand.

  Del had just finished pulling up her pants, and doing up her belt when she saw the look on Raelin’s face. “Hey, what is it?” she asked, reaching up to wipe the tears from Raelin’s eyes.

  Silently, Raelin handed the blonde the note and the box before she turned around and straightened her clothing.

  Del sucked in a breath at the ring; it was gorgeous. She read the small note and understood her witch was simply overwhelmed. She wrapped her arms around the taller woman from behind, kissing her shoulder. “You okay?”

  Holding onto the arms that surrounded her, Raelin nodded. “Yeah, just a lot of surprises today. Let’s get everything together, and I’ll head home. You’ll be home for dinner?”

  “I don’t have any pressing work to get done for today. If you need me home, I can go with you,” Del said, giving Raelin’s waist a light squeeze.

  “If you don’t mind, I would love to have your input on what to do with all the deeds,” the witch asked.

  “That’s a good question. You could keep them and collect the rent on them. I’m not sure what else you would do with them aside from give them back to the people who’ve lived there all this time,” Del said thoughtfully. ”I’m sure they’ve more than paid for them after all these years. Some of those families have been paying the Kingsley’s for generations.”

  Gathering up all of the paperwork, Raelin pocketed the small black box and turned to leave. “I don’t think that I will be able to just give them the property. I may have to charge them pennies on the dollar for tax reasons. I hope that Jessie is a really good lawyer, because she may have her work cut out for her.”

  “She’s a damned good lawyer. That’s why she’s my attorney.” Del grinned, then caught Raelin’s arm gently before she left. “Hey now, where’s the fire? Don’t I at least get a goodbye before you run out of here?”

  Turning to her wife, the brunette smiled. “I thought that you were coming home, and we were going to continue this little discussion in our room.”

  “You’re right, I am.” Del grinned, loving the mysterious twinkle in her wife’s eye. She led Raelin to the Jeep and drove them home, plans forming in her head the whole way.

  Later that evening Del finished locking the house up and joined Raelin in the bedroom. Walking in, she heard the shower running and grinned. She quickly pulled off all of her clothes, slipped quietly into the steam filled room and then into the shower. She knew she couldn’t sneak up on Raelin, but she could still take the upper hand before the taller woman could react. Del surged forward and pinned Raelin face first against the wall, the length of her own body pressed tightly to the witch’s back. She nipped at the skin of her shoulder blades, her hands wandering over slick skin. ”So rude to start without me, Darlin’,” she growled playfully.

  “I didn’t start without you...just getting things ready for you,” she wiggled her butt against the blonde.

  Del grinned against the smooth skin of Raelin’s back as she let her hands wander across the woman’s front. She didn’t linger in any one place, one hand moving around to ghost over the curve of her ass, while the other tweaked a nipple. She pulled away from the mark she’d left on Raelin’s shoulder blade, moving her lips to the sensitive spot on her neck, quickly working to leave another mark. ”Do you want me to take you Darlin’?” she breathed teasingly into the witch’s ear. “Just like this? Pressed up against the wall with nowhere to go, while I take complete control of you?”

  “You’re in control Officer, but what are the charges?” Raelin gasped.

  She nipped the shell of Raelin’s ear, a chuckle bubbling up out of her throat. “Public indecency for the stunt you pulled in the bank. Anything to say to that?” Del asked, the hand resting on Raelin’s tailbone dropping to pass over slick heat briefly before retreating.

  “Ahh, but we weren’t in public. We were behind a bolted door.” The brunette couldn’t help, but squirm against the tender assault.

  “The bolted door of an office in a public bank. It’s still under the jurisdiction of the public, and I could cuff you now for the offense,” Del rumbled, pressing her body tighter aga
inst Raelin, trapping her against the wall, stilling her restless movements with her weight.

  “Oh please...would you?” Raelin looked over her shoulder at the blonde.

  “Maybe another time. The water isn’t good for the metal,” Del murmured into Raelin’s ear, sinking two fingers deep into her witch. “You going to be good or am I going to have to hold you here?”

  “Oh babe...I’ll be good, but you can still hold me here.” The witch tried to move against the blonde, but was effectively held against the wall.

  Nodding against the skin of Raelin’s shoulder where she was busy leaving yet another mark, she slipped her right foot between Raelin’s, spreading her legs wider with the practiced ease of any officer. She set a slow torturous rhythm with her fingers, enjoying the whimpers and moans she was drawing out of her wife. “Feel good Darlin’?”

  “Uhh...yes.” Raelin pressed her forehead against the tiles of the shower and tried to string more than two words together. Her nerves were firing off and her knees started to shake.

  Del wrapped her free arm around Raelin’s waist, holding her weight as she picked up her pace. She trailed hot kisses across the bronze skin on Raelin’s back, fingernails scratching lightly at Raelin’s hip. She felt Raelin getting close and trailed her fingers down her stomach to brush over Raelin’s clit, using her body weight to hold the brunette against the wall to keep her from falling.

  “Aw shit...” The witch’s hands tried to find purchase on the tile, but couldn’t so she depended upon her wife to keep her standing. “Del...please.”

  “Please what?” Del asked slyly, slowing her fingers just a fraction.

  “Delaney...don’t leave me like this...let me cum,” Raelin pleaded. She tried reaching backwards to speed the blonde up, but couldn’t move.

  Del’s hand pulled away only to return with a third finger. She curled them, pressing hard against Raelin’s clit, letting her witch have exactly what she wanted. “Go ahead Darlin’. Let go for me,” she whispered into Raelin’s ear.

  Raelin let out a slow, low moan that echoed off the tile, and she swore that she saw fireworks behind her eyelids.

  The blonde tightened her hold on Raelin as she shuddered through what seemed a pretty intense release. She drew it out as long as she could, enjoying the sensations of Raelin’s body clamping down on her. Eventually Raelin’s body relaxed and she moved both arms around the slim waist of her lover, taking her weight until Raelin could hold herself up again. “I love you, Raelin,” Del murmured against the bronze skin of Raelin’s neck.

  Turning in her wife’s embrace, Raelin kissed her passionately before moving her lips down the peaches and crème throat. “I adore you.”

  “You liked that, didn’t you?” Del smiled tilting her head, exposing more skin to Raelin’s teasing lips.

  Placing her lips over a pulse point and sucking lightly, Raelin hummed as one hand moved down to slide into her wife’s warmth. “I liked it very much.”

  Del’s body instinctively melted into Raelin’s hand, and she purred her appreciation for her gentle touch. “I like doing it. I love how you feel under my hands,” she murmured, letting her hands rest on Raelin’s shoulders, keeping her steady.

  Keeping her thrust slow and steady, Raelin leaned back and watched the blonde come undone. “And I love the way that you feel around me when you cum.”

  Del knew this was quick even for her, but the way she’d taken Raelin had left her in a state of arousal that was nearly painful. She lifted her left leg and wrapped it over Raelin’s hip, her fingers digging into Raelin’s shoulders as her body locked. She threw her head back, a moan bubbling up from deep in her chest as she felt the pleasure roll through every nerve in her body.

  Moving her thumb so that every time she moved her hand, it would rub against Del’s clit, Raelin drew the blonde’s ear lobe into her mouth and sucked lightly.

  “Ah Rae,” Del gasped as the witch drew it out, her knees nearly buckling underneath her. She clutched desperately to the brunette trying to stay grounded when all she could feel was Raelin’s hands and mouth and hot breath on her ear. “So good,” she breathed, pressing closer.

  “Yes, you are...so good, but I was wondering...shall I bend you over and take you over the bed? We can use the handcuffs there.” The brunette moved her head back far enough so she could see her wife’s face.

  Del’s eyes went wide as images flashed through her mind. Her hips jerked against Raelin’s hand in response, she grabbed her lover’s face, and kissed her, hard. “Your call. At this point I’d do just about anything you asked,” Del groaned, knowing it was true.

  Sliding her fingers out, the witch sucked them clean before sliding four back in, filling Delaney and curling them so that it hit the spot that would drive the blonde over the edge again. Leaning forward, she ran her tongue over Del’s bottom lip before biting it lightly.

  Del cried out, toppling over yet again as Raelin filled her. She let Raelin draw it out of her, lungs burning as she gasped for air. She slumped into Raelin as she came down; boneless, hoping Raelin would keep her from falling.

  Raelin scooped her wife up, carried her into their bedroom, and gently laid her on their bed. Covering her with a sheet, Raelin crawled in next to her and pushed golden hair from her face. “I love you so much.”

  Leaning into the touch, Del sighed at how completely content she was here with Raelin. “I love you too, and tomorrow, Jessie will be here to make everything as close to official as we can,” she smiled, leaning forward to press her forehead against Raelin’s.

  Kissing the cute nose, Raelin asked. “What exactly did you tell her when you called?”

  “I told her I wanted to change my power of attorney and that I had met someone I wanted to spend the rest of my life with, that you wanted to have papers drawn up as well and needed a lawyer. I also told her you had questions about an inheritance you had recently come into. That way you can ask her about the deeds and things.” Del smiled, cuddling closer to her wife.

  Pulling the blonde closer, Raelin quietly asked. “What did she have to say to that?”

  “She was surprised, but happy for me. She’s known me since college so she knows how I am. Jessie’s well aware that I don’t take things like this lightly. She’s pretty excited to meet you actually. Don’t worry; she’s going to love you.” Del grinned, pressing a few light kisses to Raelin’s lips before letting the last kiss linger.

  “Mmm, I hope so. I hope your friends will like me,” Raelin murmured against her wife’s lips.

  “Jessie’s pretty laid back for an attorney, so I don’t think you’ll have a problem.” The blonde laughed. She stretched out, her muscles relaxing as she burrowed into Raelin’s chest. “I can’t believe you wore me out like that.” Del yawned.

  Wrapping her arms around the blonde, the witch rubbed her hands over her strong back. “Sleep Darlin’. It’s gonna be an interesting day tomorrow.”

  “She’ll be here early, so if you get up before me, wake me up. Don’t let me sleep late, ‘kay?” Del asked, tangling her legs with Raelin’s as she melted into Raelin’s hands on her back.

  “Okay babe.” Placing a gentle kiss on Del’s forehead, Raelin closed her eyes and was soon asleep.

  Letting out a deep breath, Del settled into Raelin’s warmth and quickly joined her lover in the land of dreams.

  A Chapter 28 a

  Del rose from the kitchen table when she heard the car pull in the driveway to head out to greet her best friend, smiling as she stepped onto the porch. She saw Jessie hop out and before she had time to process anything her arms were filled by a rambunctious four year old. “Aunt Delly, guess what I got to have for breakfast!”

  Del grinned and lifted the little girl, swinging her around before settling her onto her hip. ”Hey there munchkin! What did you get to eat?”

  “MacDonald's! I gots a hash brown and bacons and juice,” the little one squealed, her hands pressed to Del’s cheeks.

  Raelin wiped her hands
on the kitchen towel before she draped it over the kitchen faucet to follow the blonde outside. Standing in the doorway of the kitchen, she looked through the screens of the porch and gasped. The little girl had golden wheat colored hair and bright green eyes and the way that she talked with her hands was all Delaney.

  Del listened, chuckling as the little girl chattered on about the drive, barely stopping for breath. Eventually she tired herself out and leaned her head on Del’s shoulder, her arms clutched around the blonde’s neck as she started to drift off. She smiled, taking in the comforting smell of baby shampoo and dropped a kiss on the girl’s head.

  She smiled as Jessie approached and tilted her head up for the kiss on the cheek that was their usual greeting. ”Hey, it’s good to see you. Things have been crazy,” Del chuckled.

  “I can only imagine. You have got some explaining to do,” Jessie said with a twinkle in her eye.

  Feeling Ariel suddenly perk back up in her arms, she turned her attention to the child.

  “Aunt Delly, who’s that pretty lady that’s looking at me?” the little one tried to whisper, but failed as most kids do. Del had to laugh at the girls attempt when she turned to see Raelin looking at them from just inside the screen door.

  “That’s Raelin. She is awfully pretty, don’t you think?” Del smiled, nodding her head for Raelin to join her.

  “Mama, I’m hungry. It’s been forever since we was at McDonalds,” Ariel whined from her place on Del’s shoulder.

  Del tried to hand off a restless Ariel to her mother, but the toddler would have none of it so she directed Jessie into the house.

  “Hi, I’m Raelin. Welcome to our home.” The witch stepped aside to allow Jessie onto the back porch.

  Jessie stuck a hand out for the brunette to shake. “I’m Jessie, and the little one stuck to Del is my daughter Ariel,” the brunette grinned.

  “Can I fix Ariel something to eat? I overheard her say she was hungry. We still have some scrambled eggs left.” The witch led the way into the kitchen.
