My heart was pounding and I was putty in his hands. Next his fingers found the small zipper for my skirt and played with it.

My clothes were almost itching now, and I wriggled to help him take it off.

He took his time, caressing me, but as the kiss ended, he said, “Now let’s get this off you.”

Finally. As he slipped the skirt off, I knew he could see that my face and neck and back were flushed with desire. The heat only intensified, but I nodded and said, “Okay.”

He tossed the offending skirt to the floor and he glanced at my black cotton panties.

I shook, but he left them on and began to stroke me again. Then he said, “Now let’s try this.”

He touched, cuddled, and covered me with kisses, creating sweet spasms as he grazed and tasted every piece of exposed skin.

He had become the entire world right now. He continued touching, cuddling, kissing, and grazing my entire body. And my own body swelled like I’d please him, too.

I held his shoulder like it was my lifeline as I said, “Oh, Jacob.”

His lips curled in a devilish smile that made me melt even more. He said, “Oh, we’re just getting started.”

For the first time in my life I was hungry and needy, and I knew only Jacob had the answers.

I trusted him utterly right now. I couldn’t see anything beyond him and this night.

Chapter 10

Jacob

Indigo’s brown hair billowed over her light blue pillows. She seemed younger, like all her stress didn’t exist.

As long as she was my wife, I’d ensure nothing heavy got to her.

Not like my mom, who’d cried when she thought I couldn’t hear her.

Now I’d taken a shower and she’d not moved. I’d kept my word and only showed her pleasure, without doing anything for myself. But it damn near killed me.

Luckily, I never slept much anyhow. After relieving myself in the bathroom, I’d gone back to the living room and worked quietly.

My father had called a board meeting overnight. The minutes of the meeting were forwarded to me. One of the items was about selling more stock to grow the shareholders.

My people had vetoed him, but he likely understood I was gunning for him.

My hair stood on its ends and I froze. If he out maneuvered me, he’d set my plan back.

I swallowed and watched the sunrise. As the sun climbed higher in the sky, I texted Russ to get the plane ready. And finally I heard moaning in the bedroom. I popped my head in and saw her eyelids flutter open. I stood over the bed and said, “Good morning.”

She curled her arms up above her head and beamed at me like she was an angel as she said, “Morning.”

I offered my hand to help her to get up and she tossed the sheets aside, revealing her still-intact black underwear.

I kissed her face and felt a rush of heat in my veins, and then said, “I ordered the plane to stand by.”

She sighed like she wanted to say something, but a ring vibrated in the air.

She said, “I …”

I took her phone off the charger and handed it to her. “It’s okay to answer.”

She glanced at the caller ID and said, “It’s Ridley, my sister.”
