He urged her off his lap and settled her on the bed. She was grateful because she didn't think she'd be able to stand on her own just yet, the adrenaline from the near orgasm still flowing through her. She watched him put his shirt and sweater back on.
"I can always wait up here for you." She laid back and slowly spread her legs. "You can let them in and get them taken care of with drinks. Then, you can excuse yourself to come back to me here."
"Tempting little elf but no. We'll wait until later." He did, however, draw one finger through the engorged lips of her sex and tease her clit with the tip of one. He withdrew, then wiped the moisture across her mouth. "Go get dressed." He winked, flicked one of the bells dangling from her nipple, then headed for the door and the stairway just as the doorbell rang out again. It was followed by a loud bit of unruly knocking.
Blue sighed and licked her lips. "He sure does tell me to get dressed a lot." Her taste would linger on her tongue, and she'd make sure to kiss Cort with it before drinking it away. The notion to get herself off flowed through her veins, but she wanted to save it until she could be with Cort.
He'd make it worth her while if she kept herself on edge rather than give in. She distracted herself by staring up at the light fixture with its pretty lights making diamond patterns on the ceiling. This room was a mix of old and new, as her relationship--and yes, it was a relationship--
with Cort was a mix of old and new.
Her parents had been so happy together as had Aunt V and her husband before they'd died, leaving V and Blue to make it alone. V had gone on to live her life a certain way, never really letting anyone other than Blue get close enough to truly love her, and after V's death, Blue had done the same thing. Cort had come along at the wrong time the first time around, but when he showed up months ago, she'd known in an instant that the right time was there. Not many people got second chances. Most had to take the chance immediately or it would disappear forever.
Blue knew she was lucky. She had another shot at that forever kind of love and happiness.
And it waited for her, downstairs in the form of a hot, hunky electrician. She grinned to herself and sat up, taking the little wires with the bells on them from around her nipples. She'd leave those on the bed for later because she intended to get her angel's wings and fly in her lover's arms before the night was over.
And this time, in their Savannah room, he'd find her right where she belonged. Beside him.
About Lissa Matthews
Living in North Carolina, talented, multi-published author, Lissa Matthews, has many loves in her life: Family, friends, NASCAR, football, music of all kinds, cooking, BDSM, and last, but not least, coffee. She loves it so much she and those who know her are surprised she hasn't floated away on a caffeine-induced cloud while giving life to feisty heroines and hunky heroes.
Lissa's love of romance came from every book she has ever picked up. No matter what she read, she fell in love with the written word. The promise of escape, the deep, intriguing characters, and the winding journey from beginning to end, constantly drew her into bookstores and libraries as she was growing up.
Her first stories were written in junior high and she kept it up through college. She would stay up late at night when her kids were little reading romance and still penning her own stories. In 2007
when she and her family moved to North Carolina from Florida, she began pursuing writing as a profession and she couldn’t imagine doing anything else… Well, except maybe writing in her own cupcake bakery/coffee shop. But that dream is a ways down the road… Lucky for Lissa, she believes in dreams coming true.
Lissa is married with two children and seven, yes, seven cats. She’s blames her oldest child for the cats.
