“Both.”
“Pick. One,” I say slowly as I tweak both of my hardnipples.
“Didn’t we just talk about how this isn’t about what Iwant?”
“Good call,” I say with a little laugh. He scowls at me, but there’s a little glimmer in his eye. “How about you use your mouth.” I cup the back of his head and direct him down. It’s another moment that I remember that he knows exactly what he’s doing. Terrible with talk, amazing with the action. He’s all over my chest, sucking and biting at one nipple, then the other. I have both my hands in his hair when I feel his hand start moving up my innerthigh.
“No,” I say. I swat his hand back, then fall back on my heels. I can barely breathe. My nipples get hard as the air conditioning hits the saliva he’s smeared all over my tits. I can’t take it anymore. “Put on a condom,” I say and then turn and lie down on my stomach. I flip up my skirt and expose my lower body to him. Then I look over my shoulder. “You’re gonna lay on top of me and grind your dick into my pussy as hard as you can frombehind.”
“I don't want to hurt you,” he says as he rolls the condomon.
“I'll tell you if you're hurting me. Comeon.”
He climbs over me, bracing himself with his hand beside my shoulder. I sigh when I feel his knuckles brush my ass as he guides himself into place. I arch my back to give him better access. I’d underestimated how good his cock would feel from this angle. I moan, loud, as soon as he pushes his length in deeper and deeper. Once I’ve taken every inch of him, I realize I don’t need to give him any more directions. Silas fucks me perfectly. Hard, but not too fast. Nice and deep, at the perfect pace, hitting the perfect spots. Even when I bear down on him, my pussy clenching him, he takes it like a champ, pressing his lips to my shoulder for just a second so he can gain control. He knows better than to come before I say it’sokay.
I turn on my side and move my leg. He catches my drift and props my ankle up on his shoulder. I curse and grip the sheets. This feels even better. The AC is on high, but I when I look up I see the sweat gathering on his forehead. He’s putting in his bestwork.
“I wanna kiss you,” hegroans.
“Kiss me,then.”
He leans down and I meet him, perching on my elbow so I can press my lips to his. I come with his tongue in my mouth. I come hard, whimpering into him. I come once more and I know I’m spent. Flopping back on the sheets, I open my eyes. He hasn’t let up. He’s still going, working little tremors out of me. He’s so beautiful, I think to myself. And then I tell him tocome.

It’sa little after seven that night when I wake up from our post-sex nap. Silas is dead asleep when I roll over to see if he wants anything to drink from the kitchen. I decide not to wake him up. After we finished fucking, I stopped the recording on my laptop. I stripped out of my dress and joined him, fully naked, in bed. I climb out of bed now and dig up some clothes. I need to callClaudia.
“Where are you going?” he asks as I finish pulling on my shorts. I look up and his eyes are still closed, but he has his hand out on the sheets like he’s reaching for me. I crawl across the bed and kiss him on thelips.
“I was going to go call myfriend.”
“If you go outside, take some bug spray. There’s some in the kitchen. It’s prime feeding time for mosquitos,” he says. I try to thank him, but I think he’s passed out again before I can get it out. I leave him to get some much needed sleep. After I find the bug spray, I head out front. Only Honeycrisp and Morty follow me this time. Before the screen door closes, I hear it out in the distance. The sound of bagpipers. It’s somewhat faint, but loud enough for me to make out the tune as I sit there and listen. Mason is playing AmazingGrace.
I sit down on the porch swing and hit Claudia’s contact. A smile spreads across my face the moment sheanswers.
“Hey! I was just talking aboutyou.”
“Oh yeah? Does Shep missme?”
“Always. He’s worried about you too. We were thinking about you coming out here if you needed to go into full witness protection. Ain’t no one driving all the way up here looking for anyone. I found his place by accident.” Claudia’s fiancé lives at the top of a mountain range in butt fuck Northern California. He also has great aim with a shotgun and he keeps company with a man-eating dog beast the size of a small horse. Shep’s house would be a good place to hide, if I were looking for someplace else togo.
“Hey, Liz,” I hear Shep say in the background. His deep voice makes me smile even more. Claudia’s been through so much. I’m happy she’s found such a goodman.
“Tell him I sayhey.”
“She says hey, babe. Not the babe part. That was me.” Shep says something I can’t make out. “No, she can’t call you babe if she wants.—Anyway.Hi.”
“Hey.”
“What’s going on?” sheasks.
“What are the chances that my phone is being bugged rightnow?”
“I have no idea how that works. Does Brook know? I know she’s in a different borough, but she’s still aD.A..”
“I’m not askingher.”
“It’s good to hear your voice. You soundbetter.”
