Zac didn’t say anything back. He didn’t do anything other than continue to stare at me.

“Are you okay?” I asked him.

“Yes. Um—if I stay here with you tonight, it’ll be the first time in over four years that I’ve fallen asleep with someone beside me other than Malcolm. That reality just hit me.”

I reached out and held Zac’s face in my hand. “It’s been a long time for me too. Let’s just hold each other all night long. We both need it.”

“We do. But Stevie… Don’t you think we’ll be taking an even greater risk of getting caught if I stay here until morning? My car is parked in your driveway. Not that any of your neighbors know me, but still.”

“I’ve already thought about that. You can park your car next to mine in my garage. It’s not a big deal.”

The worry in Zac’s eyes slowly diffused. Then he said, “Okay, I’ll stay. My God, I want to. Before I get out of this pool and go move my car though, I need you to tell me exactly how you’re feeling about everything now since we’ve had sex.”

“It’s just like you said. There’s no turning back, and I have no idea either of where things are headed for you and me. But I’m all in. I’m in this a hundred percent because I want you, Zac Buchanan.”

“You’ve already got me, woman.”

I FELL ASLEEPin Stevie’s bed last night with her in my arms, her head resting on my chest, and it was the best sleep that I’d had in years. It was peaceful, it was pure and it felt so right having Stevie by my side.

We woke up at the same time this morning, just as the sun was starting to come up. I looked down at my lover still in my arms and she looked up at me. I whispered, “Hey, you,” and she smiled. Then I pulled her over on top of me and held her warm, naked body against mine. She rested her head on my chest again, right on top of my tattoo of Malcolm’s newborn footprints and birthdate. We took a few minutes to absorb the newness of the day and process everything that we were feeling. It went without saying that Stevie’s emotions were in the same heightened state as mine. The morning was brand new and bright, and so was the state of our two hearts.

When we got out of bed, Stevie slipped on a black, silky robe with pink hibiscus on it and I put back on my sports briefs. Then we walked down the hallway together, holding hands all the way to the kitchen. After brewing two K-Cups of French roast coffee for us and adding a splash of whole milk to each, Steviesuggested we go sit outside on her back patio, which I was all too happy to do with her.

We spent the next fifteen minutes or so just talking to each other like we’d been doing that morning routine forever. Looking at Stevie sitting across the table from me, with her ruffled long blond hair, sleepy blue eyes, and glowing cheeks, I thought to myself how breathtaking she was. She didn’t have on any makeup whatsoever and she didn’t need it. She was a natural beauty.

Instead of Stevie cooking breakfast for us as she’d planned to do, I took over her kitchen and made a giant omelet with cheese, then spooned some Kylito’s salsa on top of it, the same kind I had in my fridge. We shared the omelet along with some toast and orange juice, and when we were done eating, I left Stevie’s house to go to mine because I needed a fresh suit to wear to court today. Before I left though, I took Stevie to bed again. Not in the water but in the one that we’d slept in. I had to have some more of her.

Ineededsome more of her.

It didn’t take me long to get her highly aroused again by teasing her clit with my tongue, and when I saw that she was getting close to orgasming, I raised up and moved my body over the top of hers. Then we became one again.

Before I started sliding my cock in and out of her, I propped myself up on my elbows on either side of Stevie, and then placed my hands underneath her head, holding it on top of her pillow. I wanted to watch her face when she came this time—but especially her eyes. I hadn’t gotten to do that last night while we were having sex on the edge of her swimming pool because I was fucking her from behind when she lost control.

Right before Stevie lost it this morning, I felt her pussy start tightening up around my cock like before, and then she dug her heels into my ass even harder, pulling me into her that muchdeeper. Her hands were wrapped around the metal bars on her headboard and her breasts were bouncing up and down as I kept thrusting myself into her over and over again. Then finally, she started to cum.

When she began arching her back, I thought she was going to close her eyes the rest of the way but she didn’t. She kept them open and she kept them on me. I could tell by the burst of fire in them how good I was making her feel and then she moaned out my name. As soon as I heard it, I came, and like last night, it lasted for so long. It felt like an earthquake breaking me open again.

Afterward, I collapsed beside Stevie, then wrapped my arms around her and hugged her body to mine. She was trembling again, but I knew it was the good kind, so I didn’t worry about it.

After catching our breaths, I leaned my head down and kissed her soft lips, and then we got up to take a shower together. I didn’t expect that but Stevie asked me to join her, and I enjoyed every second of being in the water with her again. She bathed me, I bathed her, and it didn’t feel awkward at all—just like when we’d sat on her back patio, sipping on our cups of coffee and talking while the sun came up. Our intimacy came so easily and felt like something that we’d been sharing for so long, although we hadn’t. Technically, it’d only been seventeen days.

After I left Stevie’s house to make the short drive to mine, I turned on the radio and the song that happened to be playing instantly made me smile. I hadn’t heard it in years but it was still one of my favorites by Hozier. “From Eden” was the title and the lyrics covered exactly how I felt about this affair that Stevie and I were having.

As soon as I parked my Blazer in my garage, I texted a link to the song to Stevie. Less than a minute later, she sent back a row of red hearts and also: “I know that song and love it! It’s on the playlist we listened to when you brought Malcolm over.”

I texted her back, commenting on how much we had in common, and she agreed. Then she sent me her favorite lyrics from the song: “Babe, there’s something broken about this. But I might be hoping about this. Oh, what a sin!” After that, I sent her mine: “Babe, there’s something lonesome about you. Something so wholesome about you. Get closer to me.” Stevie replied with another row of red hearts and I just kept smiling.

After the incredible morning that we’d shared together, I didn’t think my day could get any better. Not until now. I’d just left the courthouse after a divorce/custody hearing for one of my clients and Bash had also just left after one of his client’s hearings. He and I were walking down the steps together, talking, when I noticed a sexy mermaid coming up them.

I wondered how this was going to go—how Stevie was going to be with me while Bash was present. She and I had been friendly the one time that Bash saw us around each other at Mystic Bar, but our level of friendliness had obviously increased since then. Tremendously. Her interaction with me was about to tell the tale. She was either going to be as friendly as she’d ended up being with me while at the bar that Friday evening or she was going to switch back into professional mode. Still friendly but also reserved.

When Stevie saw us, she politely smiled and waved. We returned the gestures but I was having a hard time not looking down at her black pencil skirt, knowing she wasn’t wearing any panties underneath it and also knowing my face, as well as my cock, had been between her tan legs again only a few hours ago. I could still taste her juicy sweetness on my tongue and I’d never forget the sound of her moaning my name when I made her cum, nor the look in her deep blue eyes.
