Her hand slithers under my shirt, her fingers dancing along my abs as she deepens the kiss. A few more seconds like this will lead to her robe on the floor and me feasting on her pussy ratherthan the soup I made…just like last night…and the night before and the many nights before that.
But not tonight.
I pull away and put my arms on her shoulders, giving us some distance.
“Hey,” she says with a pout. “I was just about to stick my hand down your pants.”
I chuckle. “As amazing as that sounds, hold that thought, because we are having dinner tonight, the way I want to have dinner.”
“And that doesn’t entail my hand being down your pants?”
“No.” I shake my head and then bring her over to her seat. As she sits down, I hand her a spoon and add, “Now eat.”
“That’s very demanding of you,” she says.
I take a seat across from her. “It’s not, when I’ve been wanting to have a normal dinner with you so we can talk about your day.”
When her eyes meet mine, I see the soft expression that passes over her features in understanding. It was one of the things that stuck out to me when Everly and I first started getting to know each other: wanting someone to come home to, someone to share a meal with, someone to talk to at night. After the wedding, I swore to myself I will be the man she wants, the man she desires, and that means being there for her when she gets home from work, ready to welcome her and spoil her. But it seems like I can’t get a hold on this simple task, even after two weeks of being together—every chance we’ve had, I’ve fallen for a quick kiss and turned it into so much more.
Not tonight.
Tonight, I will give her what she wants…at the dinner table and then on top of it.
“So, tell me about your day,” I say.
She crosses one leg over the other and tries to hide her smile, but I can see it clear as day. “Well, I was planning an event I’m working on with one of my bosses and ended up getting bent over his desk instead.”
“Everly…” I raise a brow at her.
“What?” she says with a smile. “It was a highlight of my day. If only he would do the same right now.”
“Great things come to those who wait.”
“I waited long enough for you. I should be able to have you whenever I want.”
Did I mention she’s insatiable?
Did I mention…so am I? Hence thebent over the office desksex we had today.
“After dinner, promise, but I want to hear about your day first. Humor me.” I offer her a wink.
She sighs. “It’s cute that you’re doing this. It does not go unappreciated. I want you to know that.”
“Thank you,” I say.
“But I got a new toy in the mail today, and I really want to use it.”
I gulp because a new toy means a lot of moaning and biting in my future, something I can’t fucking deny.
“Then eat fast and tell me about your day even faster.”
She laughs. “Honestly, the best thing about it was seeing you in your office. I know it was a rough day for you, so being able to put a smile on your face really made my day.”
“You always put a smile on my face.”
She leans across the table, looking for a kiss, so I give her one but pull away quickly.
“We also landed a big event with the Fog Horns’ children’s charity, which is amazing. Scarlett will be heading it up. She’s been a huge asset to the team. And then I worked on some centerpiece ideas for a wedding Maggie is in charge of—she wasstruggling, so I came up with some ideas. Then I came home to you making soup, and everything is right in the world.”
