So, I knew I was being ridiculous.

I also wanted the present…and the hotel room…and to experience this with my woman. Which was why I asked, “What’s inside?”

Fingers walking up his chest, stroking lightly through the stubble on my jaw. “We have a couple of minutes,” she murmured. “Why don’t you open it?”

Little Prus ready to take on the world.

I was flying.

Holy shit, I was flying.

I mean, I was drooling too and the rush of air was making spit spread out over my face.
