Page 70 of Sex, Lust & Lingerie

My heart skips a beat when I see my man. Oh God, he’s gorgeous, dressed in an elegant long-tailed tux and a blue bow tie that complements the color of his eyes. And of course, no socks. His denim blues meet my gaze and I know he’s mine. Later tonight, we’re flying back to Paris on his private plane for our honeymoon. The City of Light. And the City of Love. I glimpse down at my shimmering toi et moi ring and wonder what surprises Mr. Creativity has in store for me this time.

“Come here, you.” He takes me in his arms. I melt into him.

“You look beautiful, Gloria,” he whispers in my ear. Oh, the breathy way he says my name!

“You do too,” I whisper back.

Before a justice of the peace and an adoring crowd that includes Jaime’s therapist Dr. Zimmer and his French client Emanuel, who both helped bring us together, we exchange our vows. My heart hammers as Jaime begins.

“My angel, I showed you my scars; you showed me yours. I gave you my heart and you gave me yours. We are the eternal union of two wounded souls. But from this day on, no more scars; no more pain. I will love you, cherish you, and protect you for all of eternity.”

It’s my turn. I’m teary-eyed.

“Mon amour, I promise I will love you forever. No matter what life throws at us, we will always be toi et moi. I shall never leave you. My tears are my witness. And I shall keep no secrets between us for as long as we both shall live.”

We exchange simple gold bands, both inscribed with the words: Eternally Yours. We’re officially husband and wife. My heart roars with joy as Jaime lifts up my veil, and his lush lips consume mine with a passionate kiss that I want to never end.

This is the man I will cherish and confide in the rest of my life. He knows all my secrets. I bore my past—my abusive childhood with my crack whore mother, my love for Madame Paulette, and the unthinkable crime that’s now behind me, buried six feet under. One night after making glorious love, I even confessed to initially thinking he was Ms. Zander. A woman! He almost rolled off the bed with laughter and then fucked me again…harder.

Confession: There’s one more secret. I’m hiding it deep inside me. But true to my vow, Jaime was the first to know. In six months, the world will know too.

Her name is Paulette Long Zander. And she has a twin. We’re calling him Payton Henri.

Jaime

Gloria and I vowed no more secrets. No more lies.

When we met, I told her I liked her when I knew I already loved her.
