“Huh? Me? Uh. Yeah. It was a good day,” she finally manages to say. I can’t help grinning at her. She stares at her menu, but I know she’s not reading it. Her eyes keep darting to mine and then back to the menu.

“It was just good?” Frannie asks, bursting out in laughter.

“Yes. Let’s leave it at that, shall we?” As soon as the waitress sets our drinks down in front of us, she licks her lips before bringing her wine glass to her mouth and gulping it down all at once.

“Thirsty?” I ask her, my voice low. She clears her throat.

“I’ll take another,” she tells the waitress who nods and walks away.

“You didn’t answer my question,” I tell her.

“Um… yeah… I am very, very thirsty.” Shit. She emphasizes thirsty like she just came out of the desert. Her voice is breathy and sultry, making it so I would like to hear more of it in the privacy of our bedroom. I need to adjust my hard cock discreetly under the table. My curvy goddess does this to me.

“I bet you are,” I reply, my voice gruff.

“Wh… Wh… What does that mean?” she asks, still stumbling over her words.

“I have to pee,” Frannie suddenly says and abruptly stands. Well, as abrupt as she can with that belly. With a hand on Esther’s shoulder she shoves her out of her chair, then grabs her arm and drags her away from the table. I can hear them talking, but I can’t make out the words as they go.

Now I can see how short that dress is, and my fist starts clenching under the table. Fuck! She’s turning heads all through the restaurant. Is everything she wears going to piss me off? Once I’ve kissed her, tasted her sweet nectar and claimed her, I should be able to reign in these possessive savage feelings. Who am I kidding? It’ll be a thousand times worse and I know it.

“What the hell was that about?” Baron asks, taking a drink of his Lagavulin. It’s an expensive scotch whiskey that’s pretty damn good after a long day at the office.

“I have no idea,” I reply, smirking.

But fuck do I want to. I don’t think she even knows how beautiful she is to me. I decide that I am going to whisper it to her over and over as I sink my cock into her for the first time.Chapter SixEsther“Girl, what has gotten into you?” Frannie asks me as we enter the restroom. “I have never seen you act so… flighty. You act as if you are practically drunk. What gives?”

Ugh. This is the part I have been dreading. I’ve been keeping this…this obsession… this… need, inside of me. The need to be owned by this man… to myself for so long. I never wanted to say anything, because I wasn’t sure about the reaction of others...but now it seems the cat is out of the bag. Taking a deep breath, I tell her everything.

“Truth Frannie… I have been in lust and love with him since your wedding.” I almost snicker when her mouth opens in shock. Except, there is nothing funny about how far my need for him goes.

“Do you remember when we were all getting lined up for pics?” She nods her head, her face one of complete and utter shock. “Well you introduced us, and I swear the minute his hand touched mine, I could hear doves flying over my head. The sweetest of melodies started playing and everything went away except for him and me. I knew right then that it was him. He is the one for me.” I say, as I release my breath. My body feels lighter after finally letting out everything that I have been holding inside. She is shaking her head, obviously trying to shake herself from the shock of my revelation. She lays her hands on the sink and looks over at me. I know now that I am in trouble.

“First of all, let me just say...WOW!!'' I nod my head, knowing exactly how she feels. “Second, I want to know why you have kept this from me? I am your best friend. One could even argue that I am your sister, for crying out loud. Why wouldn’t you tell me this?”

“I… I wasn’t sure that he would want ME! I mean, what would a man like him want with a woman like me?” The look on her face is oozing confusion. I get it. She’s never seen me insecure, and to be honest neither have I. It wasn’t until I met him, that I realized I’ve always felt like I was not good enough. The only difference is I have always been surrounded by people like me, so I was able to ignore and hide it better.
