“Okay,” she says quietly.

I lower my head to kiss her forehead. “Good night, Minnie.”

She takes advantage of my lowered stature and brings her hand up, grabbing the back of my neck as she reaches onto her toes and kisses the corner of my lips delicately. Just like I did to her on the ice. “Good night, Silas.”

Desperate for fireworks. So, so desperate.

~ Four Days Later ~

The weekend passed in a blur. After wishing good night to Silas, I ran to my room, needing a secluded place to gather my thoughts. And as he requested, I filled myself a warm bubble bath for my sore body.

Once in the water, my mind kept replaying the night, from the skating to being pressed against the wall as he whispered the filthy things he imagined doing to me.Things I wanted him to do to me.

I let my hand slip down my body to my sticky center and pleasured myself to the image of Silas fulfilling those promises. I was already so wet—thanks to him—that my panties were soaked through when I removed them.

When I eventually stepped out of the tub and looked at my reflection in the mirror, little bite marks lined the side of my neck. It should have disturbed me. No one had ever bitten me like he did; no one had ever talked to me the way he had. Yet all it did was make my arousal resurface.

Saturday was dedicated to groceries and a deep clean, and Sunday Emma and I used our spa gift cards and got the pampering of a lifetime. We then came home and performed our usual Sunday tradition, minus the face masks this time. It was a glorious and well-deserved day.

It’s now Tuesday afternoon, and Silas has his first home game tomorrow night. I can tell his mind is mostly focused on that by the way he’s been calling and texting less. But I get it, and I’m not mad. This is his career, and it’s important to him; I wouldn’t want it any other way.

I’m in the middle of research for a specific venue type a client has requested when my phone alerts me of a new notification. I pick it up to see who it’s from, and a smile instantly spreads over my lips when I read Silas’s name.

Big Guy

What are you doing tonight?

Me

Sleeping, you?

Big Guy

HA. HA. Smartass.

I giggle to myself.I like messing with him a little.I lean back against my desk chair with my phone in hand.

Me

Thank you. But if you were asking if I had any plans tonight, the answer is no.

Big Guy

Good, I want to take you somewhere.

Me

Shouldn’t you be relaxing tonight to be fully rested tomorrow?

Big Guy

Seeing my girl will relax me. And anyway, I sleep better after spending time with you. So you would only be helping me out.
