“It’s all I want too. When he mentioned the divorce, I was dumbstruck. I didn’t know how to react, or what you’d want.” She opened her eyes slowly. They were full of tears.

“Jesus, babe, why are you crying?”

“Because I never saw this coming,” she whispered. “I never figured that I’d fall for you for real... or that you’d reciprocate.”

“You have no idea how much I love you.Ihad no idea until I saw those this morning, and I immediately thought, ‘Hell no.’ I have everything I want with you and Annie and Jack. This life we have is perfect.Youare perfect. I love you more than I ever thought I was capable of, Allison.”

“And I love you too. I love the way you love me. I wasn’t sure of it, even though I could feel it in my bones. And I love the way you love the little ones.”

“They’re part of us.”

Allison put her arms around my neck, jumping up on me. I caught her by the ass and set her on the counter, spreading her legs. A ripping sound startled both of us.

She burst out laughing, dropping her head back. “Yeah, this skirt needed that. It had it coming.”

“I fucking love these suits of yours. They turn me on.”

She gasped. “What? But that’s the opposite of what they’re supposed to do.”

“That’s perfect. No one else can fantasize about the same things I do.”

“Hmm, you can’t dictate what others can fantasize about or not.”

“Yes, I fucking can.” I took a step back with great difficulty and said, “Let’s open the bottle. I want to celebrate with my wife that we get to keep our kids.”

Allison leaned forward and tugged the collar of my shirt, pulling me closer to her. Then she kissed me.

I let her take the lead, liking the hungry way with which she devoured my mouth. But then I groaned. I was starting to get hard, and I wanted us to open the damn champagne before I completely lost my head. But then I had another idea.

I stepped back, grabbing the bottle and an opener, and wiggled my eyebrows. “Come on. You grab the glasses, and we’ll take the party upstairs.”

Her pupils dilated, and her mouth opened in a delicious O. “Nick Whitley, you always manage to surprise me.”

“And I promise to do that for a long time to come.”

Instead of letting her come down from the kitchen counter, I put the bottle back and kissed her harder than she’d kissed me before. My need for her was growing stronger by the second. I removed her suit jacket, touching her waist before moving to her breasts. I needed her naked now.

I lifted her into my arms, deciding we could pop the champagne later. Right now, I wanted to feel as close to this woman as humanly possible.

I carried her up the stairs and directly into the master bedroom. When I laid her down on the bed, I spread her legs wider. The skirt ripped even more.

She laughed. “You’re determined to make this skirt unwearable, huh?”

“Fuck yes. I told you I could keep you naked with me all the time. I’d be the happiest man on the planet. But I’m happy enough knowing you’re my wife forever.”

She smiled at me and propped herself up on her palms, putting them a few inches behind her back.

“Then let me make it easy for you.” She reached to her side and lowered the zipper. I yanked the skirt down the next second.

“I fucking love this blouse. All buttoned up.” I took a step back. “Take it off for me.”

She straightened up, bringing her hands to the bottom of the shirt. She glanced up abruptly. “Where do you want me to start?”

My cock pulsed. I liked how she craved instructions.

“At the top.”

She immediately moved her hands to her neck and undid the buttons quickly. I didn’t interrupt her or tell her to slow down because I didn’t have enough patience for that. Instead, Idecided that I needed to speed this up even more or I was going to explode.
