Excerpt
THE HOUSE IS QUIET as I climb the steps to the second floor. My
home is rarely quiet, so it always raises the hairs on my neck when I walk
through the door and I’m greeted with silence. I enter the bedroom and see the
door to the master bathroom is closed. I approach slowly, listening for the
sound of running water, but I hear nothing. I raise my fist to knock on the
door, but it opens on its own.
Claire screams when she sees me. “Shit! You
scared me. I didn’t know you’d be back so soon.”
“Why are you naked? Are you taking a shower?”
She looks over my shoulder at the bedroom door.
“Close the door!”
I smile as I turn around and head over to pull
it closed. Then I lock the door, for good measure. When I turn around, she’s at
the dresser, sifting through her panty drawer. I come up behind her and nuzzle
my face in her neck so I can taste her skin.
“Where are the kids?” I murmur into her ear.
“Jimi took Ryder to get a new bodyboard. They
just left.”
“Good.”
“Chris?” she whispers, her back arched as I
slide my hand between her legs. “Remember that surprise I told you about?”
My finger slides between her flesh and she lets
out a soft squeak when I find her clit. I pull her backward, away from the
dresser, then I gently lay her belly-down on the bed. Sliding my left hand down
the back of her left thigh, I pull it sideways to spread her legs.
“You said the surprise might involve you being
naked, so I’ll just come right out and say that I really like this
surprise.” My hand glides between us to undo my pants and she laughs. “What’s
so funny?”
She tries to turn around, but she can’t with me
lying on top of her. “Get up. I need to turn around.”
“Okay, fine. No doggy style today.”
I stand up so she can flip onto her back, but
the minute I see her ample breasts trembling with movement, the sinful curve of
her hips, and the light patch of hair on her mound, I can’t resist. I get right
back on top of her and she laughs as she pushes me back.
“I’m serious, Chris. I have to talk to you.”
I roll my eyes as I stand up again and offer her
my hand to help her up. “What could be more important than having sex right
now? All the kids are gone. All of them.”
