  “I told Scott I wanted to experiment. He’s encouraging it.”

  “Well, of course he is. Duh!” Zerrin deadpanned and Mariana laughed. “You’re a

  beautiful and sexy woman, Mari. Of course, Scott would want to see you become

  intimate with another woman. Hell, he might even want to participate.”

  “Oh,” Mariana thought about seeing Scott with another woman. She didn’t know if she would be excited or jealous. The sheer thought of Scott being intimate with Dove often sent Mariana into a jealous rage. “I don’t know if I would like that.”

  “You’ll know when it gets to that point. You’re not there yet.” Zerrin reassured. “You might be down to see him please another woman the same way he pleased you or you might be like, ‘Ah, hell, nah!’” Zerrin laughed as Mariana joined in. “Just go with the

  flow.”

  “I’m afraid if I change my mind, he might get frustrated and go somewhere else to get it.

  That’s my hesitation. Or if I do include him, he’ll regularly expect threesomes.” She hesitated before she thought about the conclusion. “Or he might catch feelings for the other person and that’s it – no more us.”

  “Somehow, I doubt he’ll do any of those. Scott likes monogamy in all its forms once there’s a ring on it. I know he was fighting it tooth and nail for years but he seems to be the type once he settles down, he’ll spoil his woman with everything and then some. He and Nick are very much kindred spirits.” Zerrin glanced down at the enormous

  engagement ring Nick gave her. The eleven-carat sparkler was a simple Emerald-cut but that’s all it was needed. “Something about those Nupes…”

  Three

  The Kool Down was everything but. As Nick spun 90’s R&B and hip-hop, it was lively as ever. Some Brothers and Silhouettes cooled off in the pool while others set the dance floor on fire.

  Between nibbling on appetizers and mingling with others, Scott kept his promise and only danced with Mariana, slowly grinding to Jodeci’s “My Heart Belongs to U.” As Scott held her by the small of her back, Mariana rested her head on his chest and sighed.

  This was where she needed to be. This was everything and more. The song was

  appropriate to describe them and whatever it was they were doing.

  They finally declared their love to each other in private and Scott showed her off in public and without hesitation. She began to wonder what was wrong with her that kept waiting for the other shoe to drop.

  “Are you uncomfortable?” Scott sensed the tension in her body.

  Mariana shook her head. “I just hope this isn’t a bad dream when I wake up in my apartment in L.A.”

  “Why would you think that?” He asked. “I thought we were having a great time.”

  “We are,” she replied, “it’s just…for the first time in forever, really, this is actually happening.”

  Scott spun her around and pulled her close, resting his hand on her lower back. He loved how her hair smelled, something like fruit and coconuts. “Mari, I told you I was willing to work on everything and do whatever it took to win you back.” He reassured her. “I wouldn’t lie about that.”

  “Why me?” She asked, for the first time questioning Scott’s motives. “You could’ve chosen so many others and yet, I’m the one.”

  “Why not you?” He replied.

  “I’m younger than you, I can be immature at times, I love to curse, and I’m a

  spendthrift.” She stated. “Those are pretty horrible qualities.”

  “I can be an asshole 24/7 and I embrace it,” he calmly replied.

  The tension was broken and Mariana smiled. “You always know what to say.”

  “I can focus on your faults and think you’re horrible. Or I can focus on everything wonderful about you and love you even more.” He looked down at her. “Every night I fall asleep thinking about you. When I wake up, you’re the first thing on my mind. I feel

  like I’m a better person when I’m around you and that’s something I don’t say about very many people. I’m pretty sure I’m in love with you and honestly, I don’t think I ever stopped. I wish I could take back everything I’ve done. I’m not perfect, and neither are you, but somehow we’re perfect for each other. I look at you and see the rest of my life right in front of me. You’re the mother of my son and I made a promise to him right before he passed, I would honor you in both your absence and presence. And I have to say you’re pretty amazing, Mariana.”

  Mariana felt overwhelmed. The man she’d never stopping loving, promised her forever if she wanted. His green eyes softened to light green and happiness radiated within them.

  “You make my life beautiful,” her voice was above a whisper.

  “I try.” He smiled.

  “I’m supposed to check out tomorrow,” she mentioned. “We still have supper with your family on Sunday.” She replied. The more she thought about having dinner with Scott’s family, the uneasier Mariana became. Memories of the last meeting still plagued her.

  “And you have something you want to do to me in the next few days.”

  There was so much to do in such a little time. He would’ve preferred weeks so he could take his time and have Mariana slowly adjust to everything. Sanora taught him how to use his time wisely. “Are you ready for it?” He asked. “It’ll be intense.”

  Mariana was excited and terrified. She always considered herself to be sexually open but even the thought of anal sex scared her. It was funny, she thought, how performing a sex act in front of a live audience didn’t phase her but Scott stretching her ass made her worried. “I think I’ll be able to handle it,” she winked at him.

  “I want you to move all of your belongings to my suite,” he mentioned. “You’ll stay with me starting tonight.”

  “You really don’t want me going anywhere, huh?” She teased.

  He spun Mariana around and dipped her, staring into her eyes. “No.”

  It was weird, Mariana thought, how easily things flowed back together as if things never ended.

  As she stood in the bathroom after her shower, it seemed her and Scott went back into a normal routine. He checked work e-mail or caught highlights on SportsCenter while she did chores or other things. She thought it would’ve been awkward being together in such intimate settings again but it wasn’t.

  It felt…normal.

  They fell back into place without missing a single step and it was then she realized how much she missed him. And she definitely missed them. They had a strong sexual and emotional vibe that could only be felt, not described. Sex aside, she loved that man with all of her being.

  After Mariana finished cleansing her face, she changed into her standard white tank top and boy shorts for bed. “I just thought of something.”

  Scott looked up at her. “Hmm?”

  “Despite us having copious amounts of sex these past few days,” she crawled in the bed and joined him, “this is the first time we’ve actually spent the night since Tuesday.”

  “It is, isn’t it?” Scott put away his phone and cuddled next to her. “Well, hopefully, it’ll be the start of more.”

  “So, what’s going to happen once we return to L.A.?” She asked. “Are we going to go back to status quo or will it be starting over?”

  “Status quo?” He questioned.

  “Scott, friends don’t act the way we do. Not even friends with benefits do this. This is beyond just hooking up in a hotel while away on a trip. This is more than just spending some time together. This is beyond a friendship.” She stated.

  “What is it, then?” He asked.

  Mariana felt the stillness of her breath as her heart thumped loudly against her chest. Why did he always have to put her on the spot like that? She looked up at him and with the nerve of a thousand men, she finally answered. “You’re my soulmate,” she admitted.

  “When did you figure that out?” He smiled.

  “Six months in,” she admitted, “
you?”

  “The first time I met you,” he revealed and she gasped. “I was stupid trying to fight it instead of embracing it. I won’t repeat the same mistake again.”

  “So, what now?”

  “I think we should date for a while,” he suggested, “I’ll spend the night with you and vice-versa. Go out to movies and dinner. Take you to sporting events. You always wanted to visit the Ferguson Gallery and they’re going to have a great exhibit there by Sydney Walker. It’ll just be like if we were just a regular couple.”

  It was what Scott didn’t say that caught Mariana’s attention. “Are you saying you’re my boyfriend now?”

  “Do I need to pass you a note in class?” He chuckled. “Do you want to be my girlfriend?

  Check off yes or no?”

  “Smart-ass!” Mariana looked up to him. “I love being your girlfriend.”

  He softly kissed her, sucking on her bottom lip. “And I love being your boyfriend.”

  She settled into his arms and loved how easily they fit together. “There are times I wonder if we actually did everything or if was just my imagination?”

  “I feel that way, too,” He admitted, “But I can’t imagine how I feel about you. It’s too powerful for fiction.”

  “I would love to make love tonight but I’m afraid I’m still tender from earlier.” She pouted. “I’m bummed because I was really looking forward to experimenting tonight.”

  “We still can. I don’t have to penetrate you,” he mentioned, “there are plenty of other ways I can experiment.”

  “Oh?” She was intrigued. “How so?”

  “Well…” he slid down the bed. He reached up and pulled Mariana’s boy shorts down her legs. He went into the bathroom and grabbed a towel before returning to the bed. He instructed Mariana to lift up her hips so he could place the large towel underneath her.

  “…sometimes when you want to experiment but you don’t have the lubrication to do so we have to become creative.”

  “Oh?” She watched him push her thighs apart. She was spread eagle on the bed. “Like how?”

  Scott crawled back up to Mariana and laid on top of her. It was incredible seeing the way Mariana looked up at him as he stared down at her. Her face was fresh and clear of any makeup, but she looked more gorgeous than ever. He was truly stunned by her face that only matched the beauty inside her. “Shh…”

  He kissed her neck and gently suckled on it while his hands wavered over her body. He softly pinched her nipples, and trailed his tongue down her chest. His tongue made a circular motion around one breast, lightly biting the nipple while a free hand cupped her pussy. He performed the same action on the other breast before he slid down her body, kissing her navel as he went along.

  He finally landed right before her sex and softly stroked with his fingers. “Your pussy is

  so beautiful,” Scott admired the tightly closed folds. He gently spread them apart, exposing her pink pearl peeking through. “Seriously, I can just stare at it all day.”

  “Honey!” Mariana blushed.

  “Well, it is! I never have seen anything so beautiful. Anyway, like I was saying, you need to be creative in creating lubrication.” He swiped his tongue from her opening up to her clit. Mariana moaned in response. “And this is one way of doing it.”

  Scott’s tongue flickered over her clit before he gently sucked on it. His tongue worked its magic, parting her folds and her swollen clit was no longer enclosed. He gave long strokes with his tongue, starting from her entrance and leading up to her clit. She tasted like heaven and love, and Scott felt he could please her all night.

  Mariana’s thighs trembled as she moved in tandem with Scott’s tongue. She squeezed her breasts, pinched the nipples, and gasped at him. Oh, fuck, how she missed his tongue on her. It was more than magical; it made her feel delirious with pleasure. Little points of light pricked throughout her body, stimulating her nerves, and some she never knew even existed.

  The moans flew from her mouth when she felt him insert one finger, then two. Her body uncontrollably shook and convulsed against her will. Short and sporadic breaths staved her orgasm. She suddenly realized why there was a need for the towel; he was going to make her wet the bed.

  His tongue gave furious strokes in the same rhythm as his fingers. Scott was on a mission but it was clear to Mariana, it wasn’t just pleasing her pussy. If she didn’t know better, she thought he was anxious to get that part of foreplay out of the way so he could focus on the task at hand. No, she suddenly realized – that’s exactly what he was doing.

  Her belly became warm and her toes curled up into tight balls. Zaps of pleasure traveled up her thighs and hit her spine at the right moment of her climax, causing her to fist the sheets and lift her torso off the bed. “Fuuuuuuuuuck!” She cried. She breathed deeply through her nostrils and slammed back down on the mattress.

  Scott sat up and watched Mariana as she convulsed and giggled as the orgasm coursed through her body. He was hard as stone but he would take care of it later. For now, his mission was to pleasure her in every way. “Turn over,” he ordered.

  Mariana’s eyes flew open and saw Scott looking back at her. His erection made a large tent in his boxer briefs but that didn’t distract her. His eyes had a fire in them she had only seen a handful of times. He was on a mission.

  She didn’t say a word and turned over as ordered. She felt him spread her legs apart

  before he massaged each leg. “Are you loosened up, baby?”

  “Very,” she was in heaven.

  “Good,” he kneeled down and softly kissed each cheek. He laid down on the bed and spread her cheeks, inserting his tongue deep inside her ass. A free hand reached under and stroked her soaked pussy as he tongued her ass. He held her steady with his other hand as she squirmed and cried beneath him.

  Giving a rim job wasn’t something he did often. If he wanted to be honest, it wasn’t something Scott did at all. He wasn’t embarrassed or disgusted by it but it never truly interested him. Seeing Mariana moan his name in orgasmic pleasure, Scott made a silent point to do it to her more often. He replaced his tongue with a finger and gently massaged her while his other hand continued to furiously stroke her pussy. He felt her warmth as she buckled against his hands. Her moans and screams emboldened him, making him want to please her more.

  “This is my ass and my pussy, Mari.” Her thighs trembled beneath him as she screamed.

  “It belongs to me. I own it. Say it.”

  “It’s your pussy and ass,” she breathed.

  “Say it again,” he demanded.

  “It’s your pussy and ass!” She cried.

  “And why is it mine?” He asked.

  “Because you own it!”

  “You’re so hot and tight for me,” he continued to work her body, “I get to have this forever and ever.”

  Mariana wanted to respond but she couldn’t. She was on a pleasure overload. Her mind was delirious, her body was on fire, every one of her sense had been touched, and it seemed she was still hungry for more. She was aching, throbbing, and completely soaked.

  With Scott, she could never get enough.

  She fisted the sheets and moved in tandem with his fingers, bringing her closer to another orgasm. She moaned, cried, and squirmed beneath him. He removed his hand from her pussy and stilled her, while he inserted his other fingers inside her. “Take it,” he ordered,

  “stay still and take it.”

  “Oh fuck! Oh fuck! Oh fuck!” She gripped the sheets so hard, she swore she tore them.

  Sweat coated her body. Her throat was raspy and raw from screaming. She was so

  close…oh, so close…she felt heat rise in her belly, her toes once again curled up and all she had to do was let go.

  If only Scott would let her. “Beg me to cum,” he directed.

  “Scott, please!” Her voice sounded like a cross between pleading and moaning. “Please let me cum!”

  “Do it,” he softly replied.

/>   Mariana collapsed on the bed as the orgasm washed over her body. She screamed to the heavens and her body uncontrollably buckled against his hands. After a short while, she finally settled down. Her eyes were closed and her breathing became still.

  No words could properly convey what she felt, the many different emotions running through her.

  The highest of the highs.

  Exhaustion.

  Frustration.

  Pure bliss and ecstasy.

  “I want to fuck you,” she finally spoke.

  “You said you were too sore,” he replied.

  “It’s a good pain,” she rolled over, and opened wide for him, “please, honey?”

  Scott groaned as he read Mariana’s eyes. They were hungry, pleading, and wanting. He slid off his boxer briefs and his hardened cock jutted out. He positioned himself on top of Mariana and slid inside her. Her wet pussy immediately coated his cock and he knew he wouldn’t last very long.

  He fucked her with strong and powerful deep thrusts as Mariana clawed at his arms. A few more thrusts and he emptied his seed inside her, filling her with hot cum as he collapsed on top of her.

  He rolled off her and Mariana snuggled up to him. “I think you’re right. We do need a small sex break.”

  “Scott,” Sanora answered her phone upon the second ring. She held onto the S as been her signature. “I’ve been expecting your call. It’s unlike you to keep your distance.”

  “I apologize for that, Mistress,” He was sincere, “I didn’t know how to approach you in light of everything.”

  Everything was an international scandal that shook the world to its core. Unbeknownst to everyone, Sanora was the center of it while she was seemingly hiding in plain view. “You can call me anytime, anywhere, for anything. You know this.”

  “I won’t ever forget it,” He replied, “but this is a personal call.”

  “I’m listening,” her throaty voice replied.

  “I’m requesting an extension of Dove,” Scott stated, “I want her to train Mariana to be better submissive.”

  “Consider it done,” Sanora replied, her voice thick as honey. “How long do you think you’ll need?”
