Now he’s free and I’m two years older and there’s nothing stopping me from throwing my hat in the ring to get him for myself. I would love nothing more than to be Mrs. Killion if you please.

And since he’d had his fill of brash overrated females like this one, shy and sweet wins the day. I knew it would come in handy one day, and having had a front row seat to her demise I know very well how not to act in front of him. Not that I would ever mind you.

Long before the rumor mill got going, and even longer before he caught on to what she was, I suspected that she wasn’t doing him right.

But there was nothing I could do, except be nice to him when and where I could. He was such a standup guy, that he never paid me any notice other than once in a while when he was the one paying me at the end of the night.

Then when the shit hit the fan he’d changed. Those were some of the hardest weeks of my life. I didn’t know what was going to happen. If he’d get the kids or her, if he’d move away, change teams, everything was a toss up. I was a miserable wretch.

Then he’d called me up out of the blue one day after the divorce to discuss my job. I’d been on pins and needles all day until the time approached.

I’d thought for certain that he’d fire me like I’d heard he’d done with the rest of the domestic staff and I was already mourning the loss of him.

He’d greeted me at the door, giving nothing away with his expression, and just as before, my libido kicked into overdrive and I was giving serious thought to doing anything to keep my job.

Ten minutes after I sat down across from him my panties were soaked. It was his voice, his take charge demeanor. And that way he has of looking at you like you’re the only thing of interest in the room.

I’d made up my mind then and there that I’d die if I didn’t get this man. I knew that no one else would scratch the itch between my legs, only him. Look I’ve tried okay. I tried to find interest in guys my age, but they all left me feeling empty.

So even though I have moments of doubt, when I’m sure I’m on a fool’s errand. There were also good days when I knew I could get him if I played my cards right. I just need to overcome my fear of losing my virginity and we’d be straight.

Her snarky voice filled with venom brought me back to the present like a bucket of ice cold water poured over my head.

“Yes, you do that you skanky little home wrecking bitch. Why don’t you just run along while I talk to my Husband.” Emphasis on husband. I wish I had the nerve to remind her about their divorce.

“You’re not going anywhere Alyssa, as for you there’s only one skank around here and we all know who that is.” I’m going to swoon right here.

I was having all kinds of feels about this new side of him. He’s usually so quiet and reserved, but this masterful take charge dreamboat was pushing all the right buttons for me. ‘Come and get it.’ Okay Ariel, not the time. She would show up now.

‘But he’s being so dreamy, can’t we just give him a little taste after this hag leaves?’ Oh for heaven’s sake. She whined inside my head and called me a nerd. If it were up to her she’d have had him stuffed inside her snatch since day one.

“Don’t you dare talk to me like that in front of her.”

I’d almost forgotten that she was still in the room until she spoke out in anger again. It was obvious that she didn’t appreciate him defending me.

“I told you to leave.” He glared at her as she stood there huffing and puffing indignantly.

“I want to know what she’s doing here, the kids aren’t home yet.” She gave me the most hate filled look.

“That’s none of your business, you don’t live here and nothing that goes on here has anything to do with you. Now go.” He pointed at the door, but I could’ve told him she had no intentions of leaving.

She looked at me again and I knew she was giving serious thought to decking me. He shifted over to my side, towering over me, making me feel so safe and protected.

He didn’t see the smarmy little smile I threw her way. But he did feel me inch closer as if I were really afraid. That Ariel is a boss, she don’t give a fuck. But now was not the time to give her free rein.
