But we were on the fast track to divorce.

Bryant, please, no!”
“Don’t cry… You don’t want this?” His voice was rough, his eyes a deep crimson, restraint palpable in his gaze.
“No…”
“Alright.”
He closed his eyes for a moment, veins throbbing on his forehead, breathing heavy as if he was fighting with every ounce of his being, but eventually, he let me go…
Clutching my hands together, I whispered, “So, you’ll…”
“Jane.”
Suddenly, he opened his eyes, desire unabated if anything, more intense. He pulled me into his arms, his lips brushing my ear, “Help me out, will you?” Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
Maybe it was the confusion clouding my mind, but I detected a plea in his voice.
My heart skipped a beat, “How can I help?”
That question, in his mind, was consent. He leaned down, his arms scooping beneath my knees, lifting me off the ground.
Instinctively, my arms wrapped around his neck, a position that screamed vulnerabilit
He took two steps towards the living room couch and sat down, my legs still wrapped around his waist.
Trying to escape the heat between us, I shifted back.
His desire-filled gaze swept down, his voice husky, “You’ve made my pants wet.”
Confused, I followed his gaze, noticing a damp patch on his black dress pants….
Embarrassment flooded me, but seeing the pleasure in his eyes sparked my irritation. “How exactly can I help you?” I asked.
Bryant leaned back, his warm, dry hands gently gripping my wrists, slowly caressing.
The next second, I heard the crisp sound of a belt buckle….
I shivered, his hand guiding mine to his dick.
“Just like this,” he murmured, voice dark and husky.
I stared at him, face aflame with shock.
Three years married, and sure, we’ve been intimate. But this was a first.
The thing under my hand felt like it could burn me alive, I wanted to let go but couldn’t.
I stuttered, “What… what if I don’t help?”
He looked down at me, “Don’t know.”
Just as I was about to suggest dropping the whole thing, he added, “Kevin said it might kill

The next morning, I was rudely awakened by the cold, seeking the warmth next to me instinctively.
Just as I was about to drift back to sleep, reality hit me!
When I opened my eyes, I found Bryant’s gaze filled with tenderness.
This was not like the superficial affection we shared during our three years of sleeping in the same bed; this was different.
But even now, I couldn’t bring myself to believe it.
After all, I knew all too well how good this man was at pretending.
Bryant’s voice was soft, “Slept well?”
“Yeah.”
I responded, trying to distance myself, but the soreness in my arms made me gasp.
I didn’t even realize how long I had been at it.
At first, I was clumsy, just going back and forth
And then…
Images too explicit for words flooded my mind, and I avoided his gaze, asking, “Why are you in my bed?”
After it was all over last night, I was too exhausted and fell asleep during his attempt to clean up.
He looked serious as he replied, “After you fell asleep, you pulled me in, wouldn’t let me go.”
I wanted to argue, but had no defense, so I stayed silent and headed straight to the bathroom to freshen up.
Bryant followed, leaning against the bathroom door frame, “Are you busy this morning?”
Confused, I asked, “What’s up?”
