“You know what I mean,” Dereck said, then curled his lip. “But if you can’t understand what I’m trying to say, I might have to show you instead.”

“Oh really,” she said, slightly increasing the space between her legs to reveal what she wore underneath her shirt. Nothing.

Dereck’s breath caught in his chest, and for a moment he couldn’t breathe. He walked towards Alina, grabbed her hand, and pulled her off the chair and into his arms. “You know I am a man of action, not words.”

Alina’s chest was pushed out, revealing the swells of her perky breasts as the first two buttons of the shirt remained undone. She lifted her chin defiantly as Dereck’s large arms pulled her even closer. “I know no such thing,” Alina said, right before Dereck covered her lips with his.

Her hand went up to his neck and her feet linked around his waist as he lifted her off the ground. In one fluid motion, Alina was pinned between the wall and Dereck’s hard body as their kiss intensified. Low moans escape her as Dereck’s hand explored the top portion of her body. It brushed aside the cloth material of the shirt to cup her breast. When he flicked the nipple with his thumb, Alina’s head went backward and she moaned. “I love you so much, Dereck.”

“I don’t think love is the driving force behind anything right now,” Dereck teased before his mouth replaced his finger.

The sensation was almost too much for Alina to bear. She squirmed in his hand as her breath became more rapid and her nails dug into the skin of his back. “Oh, take me now Dereck. I need to feel you inside me.”

Dereck was never one to disappoint his woman, but always wanted her to feel the full impact of the intensity. After freeing his cock, he glided it to Alina’s entrance but kept it there, the first inkling of his wetness dampening her folds. He waited until Alina was so consumed that she begged him for it, then he eased his manhood inside her. Alina’s screams were gratifying, and they pushed Dereck to outdo his best performance. Only when Alina’s eyes rolled to the back of her head did Dereck relieve himself.

Breathless, he lowered her to the ground and took a step back. As if on cue, a loud, high-pitched sound disturbed the stillness of the apartment.

“Is it time for work already?” Alina was pouting now as she followed Dereck into the room. He took a clean shirt from the drawer where his belongings were stored and covered his broad chest. “Aren’t you going to have a shower?”

“I’ll shower at my apartment,” he said, fumbling with the last button. “If I shower here, then you’re going to join and then I’ll never reach work.”

Alina allowed her body to drop on the bed and kept her head low. “I would never do that to your patients. I know how important they are to you.”

He threw on his jacket and kissed Alina on the cheek. “That happened last week. I’ll call you later, okay,” he said before rushing out of the room.

Alina didn’t move for some time. As she stared at her reflection in the mirror, she couldn’t help but wonder how she had gotten so lucky with Dereck. He was an exceptional man, hardworking, intelligent, and he treated her as if she was the only woman in his world. As her mind wandered to the many wonderful traits of this successful man, she couldn’t help but remember what his sister Dina had said to her when she visited his home in Connecticut.

Was Dereck really too good for her? Did she really not fit into his life?

Alina sighed. Sometimes she thought so. Sometimes she believed she did not deserve to be with such a great man. Alina’s thoughts were sinking deeper into depression when her phone rang, waking her from her daze.

“Hi Taylor,” she said after retrieving her phone and answering it.

“Is Dereck there?” Taylor spoke rather quickly and in a very high tone.

“No,” Alina told her friend. “He just left for work.”

“Great,” came the hurried response on the other end. “Because I desperately need my best friend. It’s an emergency.” Taylor’s panicked state was unusual for her, and it made Alina’s skin tingle.

“Taylor, what’s wrong?” Alina was shouting, and she did not know why. “Are you okay?”

Choked words came from the other end of the call. “I think I screwed up. But maybe I didn’t. I don’t know. When you get here, I will explain everything to you.”

“I’ll be there soon,” Alina said, already headed to the bathroom.

She quickly showered, washing away traces of her previous actions. She hurriedly dressed in black skinny jeans and a crop top, the first outfit her hand touched. With a swift motion, she pulled her hair into a messy ponytail. Donning a pair of white sneakers and grabbing her bag, Alina hurried out of her apartment to address the urgent situation Taylor had called her about.

Before Alinaeven knocked on her best friend’s apartment door, it flew open. “Oh Alina,” Taylor’s hand went up to her chest, and she released an exaggerated breath. “Thank goodness you’re here.”

Taylor stepped aside and allowed Alina to enter her apartment. She was in a thong and a bra that concealed little. Her long black hair was hanging loosely at her sides and she squinted her green eyes, which meant she wasn’t wearing her contact lens. Taylor also had a small waist and curvy hips, but she was more rounded than her friend.

“What is the matter?” Alina asked, walking into the apartment and closing the door behind her. “What is the big emergency?”

“I don’t know how this could happen.” Taylor’s hand combed through her hair and she shook it vigorously before setting it free. “I’m always careful.”

Alina had to hold her friend’s arm to get her to remain still. “Taylor, slow down and tell me what’s going on.”
