“Yes, I have a son who will be off to college next year.”
“Is he old or just a super intelligent kid going off to college early?”
“He’s seventeen.”
“That is old.” I laughed, remembering when I used to think thirty was old. And here I was, thirty-five.
“Julia, tell me what you’ve been doing,” Nick said as Julia came into the room and scooted between us.
“Nana and I painted our fingers and toes and had ice cream for lunch. That was fun.”
“I bet it was.” The three of us chatted and played. I’d forgotten how fun it was being around kids this young. Julia was truly a ball of energy, and a welcomed one at that.
The doorbell rang, interrupting us, and I set the table as Nick got the food. By the time dinner was finished, Julia was yawning. Nick put her to bed, then walked back into the kitchen where I was cleaning up.
“I’ll do that.”
“Come on, the least I can do is clean up after that delicious dinner.” I took a deep breath. My heart was pounding so hard. “Can you hear it?” I whispered when he stood next to me.
He turned toward me. “Hear what?”
“My heart. It’s pounding like crazy. I thought for sure you could hear it.” He stepped closer and put his hand over my heart, then he took my hand and placed it over his. It was pounding faster than mine. I looked up at him, and he bent his head and kissed me. It’d been a while since a man kissed me. But no man had ever kissed me like this man. I made a sound I had never made, and it must have done something to Nick because he pulled me closer and devoured my lips. He trailed kisses down my neck, and I felt like melting into a pool of liquid at my feet.

Ihad to slow down, or I would explode before entering her. I found the zipper of her hot sexy dress and unzipped it. I watched it fall to the floor, and she stood in front of me in high heels, a black thong, and a black see-through bra. “Spectacular. Just remarkable, wow. It’s like you knew we would be doing this tonight.”
“I like wearing things that make me feel like the woman that I am. Let me see how ‘spectacular’ you are,” she whispered.
I picked her up and carried her to my bedroom. I had her naked before she knew what I had done. My clothes came off as we kissed, and I laid her on my bed.
Opal looked at me and whispered, “It’s been a while since I’ve had sex, so if I don’t know what to do, then you tell me, and I’ll do it.”
“Don’t worry, sweetheart. I’ll control things tonight. You can learn more the next time around.” I kissed her soft lips. Her lips moved over mine, overpowering me, overwhelming me. When my tongue grazed hers, I heard her moan into my mouth. I lost myself in that kiss, in the moment. It was magic in its purest form. My hand slipped between her thighs and touched her soft folds. She was wet and ready for me.
“I want you inside me,” she whispered with her mouth still on mine.
“Not so fast, sweetheart. I want to taste you first. My fingers worked into her hot wet folds, and her eyes rolled back into her head. I began a steady rhythm as I moved down her soft hot body. “You smell so good,” my hot breath said against her tummy. My tongue flickered over her; her hips raised to meet my tongue’s thrust. Her hands tangled in my hair. I knew she was ready to come. I raised myself and thrust my hard erection inside her. She was clawing at my back, saying my name. My name coming from her lips drove me wild. I pounded her hard and fast she met me with every thrust. She screamed my name as she orgasmed. I couldn’t hold it in a moment longer. I came deep inside her, and then I froze.
“I forgot the condom. Are you on birth control?”
She stopped breathing for a moment, and then she sighed. “Yes, I am. Let’s not worry about any of that tonight. Remember, this night is for us. We are going to only think of ourselves for tonight.”
I leaned down and kissed her. I was still hard and started moving in and out with slow strokes. I started moving faster. Opal came instantly, again and again, falling apart beneath me, then my body felt like it was going to blow up and explode while inside her. I orgasmed again, calling out her name. I rested on my elbows as I kissed her face and neck. My lips locked onto hers in a long hot kiss. I sucked on her bottom lip, never wanting to let go. I rolled to the side, bringing her on top of me. We shared kisses that I was almost sure would get us going again, but we decided to embrace each other instead.
We slept for a while. I woke up when I heard the shower. I walked into the shower and slipped my arms around her. We made love before I carried her back to the bed, where I continued to make love to her. I had never felt this way making love to a woman. I wanted to shout to the world that she was mine.No one else can have her. She belongs to me.I’m sure Opal would have something to say about that. She doesn’t strike me as the type to let any man have her all to himself. But this woman was mine, and I would fight anyone who tried taking her from me.
“Do you want me to make love to you again?” I whispered against her lips, before taking her bottom lip between my teeth and biting lightly.
She whispered back, “Yes.”
That was all she needed to say. I pushed my hard erection against her. I knew she was wet and ready for me. My breathing became labored. Our eyes were locked onto each other, neither of us looking away. I pushed her hair off her forehead. My fingers traced her face. I never took my eyes off hers. When my mouth touched her, I felt tears wet on her face. I looked at her.
“Why are you crying, sweetheart? Do you want me to stop?” I asked, stepping back to see her clearly.
“No, I’m being silly. I want you to make love to me.” She pulled my arms, wrapping them around her waist.
