CHAPTERNINETEEN
Kate
Good morning, beautiful,
I’ll be in meetings for most of the day, but I have something special planned for us this evening.
I’ve left you a surprise in the bathroom. I hope you like it.
Yours,
Damon
Ismile sleepily, holding the letter I found carefully placed on my pillow. I read it twice more, memorizing every swoop and swirl of his neat handwriting before rolling over.
A deep stretch reminds me how tender I still am after last night.
We barely got through the door after dinner before we were ripping our clothes off and falling into each other again. My cheeks burn to think of Damon stalking me toward the bed and blanketing me with his body.
I’d been afraid of not being woman enough for him, but then he slowed our pace the second and third time, allowing my body to adjust to a new way of play I’ve never experienced.
Sex with Thad always ended with him tucking me into his body, hot breath fanning across my ear as he fell asleep—fully sated—while I was left to finish myself in secret.
But Damon takes his time drawing out the anticipation, giving me a healthy dose of pleasure before ever starting on himself.
It’s refreshing to not only be cherished but to have little to no expedition from him. We listen to what our bodies ask and simply give in.
I slide off the bed and head into the bathroom to see what Damon’s left for me. When the door creaks open and I flip on the light, my hand flies to my smiling mouth.
On the silver hooks beside the shower hang a white all-lace bralette and matching cheeky panties. There’s a note taped to the hanger that reads:Non-negotiable.
I rub the delicate material between my fingers before slipping the outfit on.
In the mirror, the white contrasts to deepen my tanned skin, but the part covering my nipples is odd. I stretch the cupped portion away from my breast to find a thin pad sitting inside a slit-shaped pocket.
Perplexed, I remove it and then blush profusely. Without the cotton barrier, the lace splits vertically, perfectly exposing my nipple.
What am I going to do with this man?
On the counter lies a sleek black credit card, a gift voucher to a spa, and a canvas tote.
No arguing, the newest note reads, and I can’t help but smile.
I find my reflection in the mirror, and I’m startled by the color livening my cheeks and the relaxed satisfaction in my usually guarded gaze. I trace the smile still kissing my lips just as knocking sounds from the door to our hotel room.
“Just a minute!” I call, scurrying from the bathroom to put on a pair of faded shorts and a baby-pink tee.
“Hurry, woman. We’ve got places to be,” Brandi singsongs.
I roughly comb my fingers through my hair and swipe on a thin layer of mascara, intentionally leaving my lips naked.
When I’ve stuffed everything I need inside the tote and yank open the door, Brandi’s eyes hold a sinful glint.
“You guys are so disgustingly adorable. I can’t even stand it.” She pulls me by the wrist out into the hall and toward the elevators. “So did you bone all night? Give me the deets.”
I don’t know why, but having Brandi’s approval of our bad decisions makes me happy. “You’re a terrible influence.”
She presses the elevator button with a wink. “You havenoidea.”
