“I did. The others are in the living room. These were the heavy ones. The chandelier is still on the truck; they are going to unload it onto the front porch, and we will get it inside. Since it’s going in the foyer. Why move it more than once?”

“That’s some smart thinking.” Tori beams.

“I use what my mama gave me, sometimes.” Mack sets his boxes down next to mine. “We had to send one back; it came cracked. Will that delay us again?”

“No, that’s not a problem. Per Mrs. Oswald’s instructions, we ordered three extras of each of these fixtures, since they are so hard to find. So no work time will be lost.”

Mack chuckles. “You know,” he whispers just loud enough for Tori and me to hear. “We all know y’all are a thing so…why not drop the Mrs. Oswald stuff; it’s odd.”

I punch him in the shoulder. “Fair enough, I’ll save it for the bedroom.”

“Ian!” She is outright laughing when I turn to her. “He has a point, don’t be crude.” She winks at me.

“Very well, Victoria.” Smirking, I watch as she bites her lip. I save that tone for the bedroom, but she was teasing me, so it’s only fair.

“Tori, my dear lady,” Mack starts, ignoring me. “How about I take one of those mugs off your hands? I’m frozen solid.”

I pull my notebook closer. “I’m glad you’re both here. I want Danny to do the marble test in the shower to make sure it meets what Tori wanted for where the drain was placed before we put the rest of the boards and water sealant up.”

“Sounds good to me. Tori?” Mack asks.

“Oh yes, that’s fine.”

Ten minutes later, we’re parting ways. Mack will oversee the shower wall install, and I am heading to the back sitting area to make some calls. This isn’t my only job as it turns out. There are two other projects that are being overseen by someone else. People I trust, but I still need to make sure there are no problems.

It’s my name on these plans, after all.

“Mrs. Angelo, I can assure you, the companies I work alongside are fully bonded. I’ve been using most of them since I started.”

“What if something breaks?”

“Then it’s covered under their insurance. The team from McGraw Construction are top notch. Your home is in good hands. They’re from Florida. They understand the landscapes, the temperature fluctuations. Everything will be perfect by the time they finish.”

“If you say so. I do trust you, or I’d not be allowing this.”

“Yes, ma’am, I know, and I appreciate your repeat business.”

She keeps on talking, in the event I haven’t really understood her concerns. There is a soft knock on the door before it opens. I sit on the couch, my foot on my knee as Tori comes in.

I smile up at her.

“Mrs. Angelo, no, I don’t need to talk to Mr.—Mr. Angelo, yes, hello, sir.”

My gaze never leaves Tori as she comes in and sets a tray down on the coffee table. I peruse the tray. Cheese, crackers, fruit. A snack tray that looks delicious.

It isn’t the only thing that looks delicious. When she came in, she had on her robe, which she’s had on over her clothes for most of the morning. With the guys going in and out of the patio and into the house to get a drink or use the facilities, there has been a constant coolness to the air.

Right now, though, she stands before me naked, her robe tossed over a chair. She is gorgeous. That body may belong to a forty-one-year-old, but she is well-muscled, lean runner muscles. Her naturally large tits are just enough for me to get lost in. And that pussy of hers is my favorite kind of snack.

I’m trying to listen to the man on the other end of the phone, but she steals my attention. It isn’t until Mr. Angelo says my name again that I realize he’s asked me something.

“I’m sorry, sir. What was that?”

“What happens if someone doesn’t show up? I want this done in a decent time frame, young man.” His words barely register as I watch her move to where I’m sitting. I put my foot on the floor at her urging. Her hands slide up my thighs, and my already hard cock strains to get free.

“Sir, I assure you—” My words fail me the second she cups me through my jeans. “We have a team ready to start the project…as outlined in the contract.”

She slowly unbuttons and unzips my pants, freeing me. I swear I lose all comprehension the moment her lips close around the tip of cock.
