Dive in Deep A House and a Home
Sade“Do what?” Trent asked me.“I could see you mentally drawing up plans. You must have an excellent memory.”He chuckled. “I do have a good memory, but I will need to jot down my thoughts. It’s all fresh in my mind now, but I’ll forget some of the details within a few days. I’m a guy who likes lists. That place isn’t the worst I’ve seen, but there are a lot of things that will need to be done.”“Do you think Richie will go for it?”He winked. “It doesn’t matter if he does.”“You said you had to run the numbers.”“That’s because I’m going to run the numbers, but I don’t want him to think I’m too interested. I can’t pay his asking price and make the renovations and feel like I got a good deal. I want to give him a fair price, but I need some time.”I smiled, thoroughly impressed with his business acumen. “Damn, handsome and smart.”He laughed again. “I don’t know about the being smart part, but I know hotels.”“I’m excited for you to do this, but I feel like I have to say it again—yo

TrentI got up early, leaving Sade in bed to sleep a little longer. I was restless and anxious. My mind had been running all night, thinking about the hotel and the many things I could do to make it unique as well as profitable. It was a great time to try out the boutique hotel concept. The area was off the beaten path, which meant I wasn’t going to attract the business class.My mind had been like a hamster wheel all night. Usually, I slept like a log when I had Sade in my arms, but I was too excited for the future. My mind bounced from the hotel to the actual moving to Fresno. The first thing I did when I got up was shoot the realtor an email. If I didn’t have a response by nine at the latest, I would take my business elsewhere.I knew there were plenty of hungry real estate agents that would jump at the chance to sell me a high-end house. First one that reached out would be the one to get my commission. I was not a man that sat around and waited. I needed an agent that was as eager

TrentI nodded. “This is a no. We don’t need to waste time touring the house.”“Are you sure?” the realtor asked, clearly disappointed. “A fresh coat or two of paint will cover the red walls.”I shook my head. “No. This place is not for me.”Sade had a horrified look on her face. There wasn’t enough paint in the world to make what very much resembled a vampire lair habitable. I walked out, making my point very clear.“This one looks promising,” Sade commented from the back seat when we pulled up to another large house with huge columns in front.I wasn’t as convinced. “Let’s check it out.”We walked the property. It was nice, but I didn’t feel that connection. It was obvious Sade didn’t either. “This is nice,” she commented without any real enthusiasm.I turned toward the realtor. “Next. I hope you’re saving the best for last.”He smiled. It was a strained smile that said he wasn’t sure he had. “The next one is a little smaller. I don’t know if it’s what you’re looking for.”I waved m

SadeI was looking forward to a lazy afternoon spent with Trent. He was flying home late this afternoon, which meant we had all morning to lounge around. I started some coffee and moved to sit on the couch. Trent came in a minute later, wearing a pair of sweats and nothing else.He sat down, lifted my legs, and rested them on his lap. He had his tablet in his hand and was swiping through screen after screen. He was looking for ideas for the hotel project. Occasionally, he would lean over and ask my opinion. It was so nice just having company. I felt content and positive I had won the man lottery.My phone rang on the coffee table. I reached for it and saw it was Khloe.“Hey,” I answered. There was nothing but sobbing on the other end. “Khloe, are you okay?”“I’m screwed,” she gurgled.“What happened?” I asked, moving my legs off Trent’s lap and sitting forward.“I didn’t find a job. I can’t pay rent. I didn’t pay all of this month’s rent. The landlord just came by to deliver my evicti

SadeWe climbed back into the vehicles and headed down the highway. I kept looking over at him and smiling. I loved that I had a boyfriend that every woman would be jealous of. He was truly something special, and I was never going to take him for granted. Ever.It was evening when we pulled into town. We drove straight to the storage unit, where two more young guys met us at the gate. Trent, Khloe, and I stood back and watched them unload the truck, leaving a few of the boxes to take to my place.When we got to the condo, I insisted Trent sit down. I had noticed the limp becoming more pronounced as the day stretched on and knew he was hurting.“Sit,” I ordered. “It’s only a few boxes.”“Sade, I’m okay.”“No,” Khloe said, backing me up. “Rest.”“I need to take the truck back to the lot,” he insisted.“You can after we’ve unloaded the boxes,” I said, going to the kitchen to grab him a cold bottle of water.We left him on the couch and headed downstairs.“I am really happy for you,” Khlo

TrentMy leg was throbbing, but I would not let Sade know that. She would feel guilty. I knew she was already feeling guilty. The woman did not like charity or to be seen as needy. I didn’t think that about her, not in the least, but I had to tread lightly with her. I didn’t want her to think I was trying to buy her affection.If she caught on to the pain in my leg, she would insist I sit down for the rest of my days. The truth of the matter was the leg would hurt regardless of what I did. I didn’t mind the pain. Not really. It was an annoyance at times, and I missed being able to do some of the things I used to, but it was part of my life. The pain was a reminder of how lucky I was to still have the leg.I knew a lot of the other guys I had served with would pay to feel my pain. Pain was temporary, I reminded myself. It would subside, and I would be good to go in a day or two. I could fake it until I was back on the chopper and headed back to my place.I rubbed the knee and took a fe
Last Updated : 2023-12-13Dive in Deep Her Father's Approval
TrentWe both turned and started toward Sade’s condo. He gave me a funny look but didn’t say anything. He was carrying a small suitcase. Poor Sade. Her world was about to get rocked. A surprise visit from her father was going to be plenty, but having me and Khloe there was really going to spice things up.I stopped in front of Sade’s door. He came to stand beside me. I grinned. “I can explain,” I said.I turned the door handle and pushed it open. Her father was staring at me with obvious shock.“Babe, is that you?” Sade called out.I turned to look over my shoulder to judge his reaction. It wasn’t one of happiness. “It’s me, baby. You have a guest.”I heard her laugh. “You’re not a guest,” she called and came into the living room from the bedroom she’d been in. Her mouth dropped open when she saw her father.“Your dad’s here,” I said, stating the obvious.Her face paled. I glanced over my shoulder to see the scowl on her father’s face. He closed the door behind him and dropped his sui

TrentI woke up with my tongue glued to the roof of my mouth. I stared up at the ceiling, my eyes squinting as I struggled to focus on anything. I blinked several times before realizing I wasn’t in my bed. It wasn’t my ceiling, and it was definitely not my mattress. I slowly turned my head, not wanting to make any sudden movements.“Oh shit,” I groaned, realizing I was in Sade’s bed.The night came flooding back. There had been a lot of tequila.A lot.I rubbed my hand over my face, trying to speed up the process of clearing out the cobwebs in my brain. The bed was empty. I looked at the small digital clock on her bedside table and saw it was after seven. It wasn’t exactly late, considering it had been about one when I had climbed into bed.Sade had gone to bed much earlier, leaving me alone with her father to down tequila while we talked about the good ol’ days. All of Sade’s worries about her father had been for naught. He seemed okay with me dating his daughter. I wouldn’t say he h

Dive in Deep Happily Ever After
TrentKhloe approached us. “Too much?” she asked.Sade wiped a tear from her eye. “I love you. You are amazing. Thank you.”I nodded. “Yes, thank you. This is absolutely stunning. I could have never imagined it could look like this. Truly, thank you.”“The photographer was in earlier,” she said. “The one for the brochure.” “Perfect, thanks,” I said still in disbelief.“I think you two are supposed to be heading to the front for your little introduction,” she said, shooing us away.We spent the next two hours dancing and mingling with our guests. Justin approached me at one point and asked to talk with me in private. I was immediately on guard.“What’s going on?” I asked him in the hall outside the ballroom.“I wasn’t thrilled that the two of you ran off and got married without a word to anyone,” he started.“I’m really sorry about that.”“I know you are. I want to thank you for taking such good care of my little girl. I couldn’t have asked for a better son-in-law. Welcome to the fami
Dive in Deep Married Again
TrentI wasn’t the least bit nervous. I chalked it up to being an experienced groom. If other couples knew how much easier and how less stressful it was to have the wedding a couple of months after being married, everyone would do it. I didn’t have any wedding day jitters, and I wasn’t worried the family would hate me or the bride would be a wreck.It was easy-peasy. Sade and I had opted to stay apart last night just to make the day a little more special. Her mother had insisted on it, and I was happy to go along with the plan.I had yet to see Sade’s dress. She refused to give me any details about it and often teased it was a red dress. I told her to wear whatever she wanted, but I was secretly hoping for something traditional.I walked into position in front of the archway, which was actually a pergola covered in lush green ferns at the English Garden in Wolf Lakes Park. Sade and I had searched for the perfect place to hold the ceremony. It had taken Khloe’s very impressive negotiat
Dive in Deep I Want to Watch
SadeI didn’t have to ask where he wanted me to go. My body responded just as he demanded. I moaned, loud and low in my throat as the orgasm flooded my body. I jerked and spasmed against him, my hips grinding against his hand as he held me close.He stepped back and gently turned me to face the bed. The damn thing was so high, it hit me about mid-thigh. I moved to lift my leg to climb on the bed when he stopped me.“Lie across the bed,” he ordered, his voice thick with desire.I did as he said, lying face down on the bed, my feet on the floor, my ass exposed. His hands caressed over both cheeks before he slid one hand between my thighs. I felt the finger part my swollen folds and held my breath, waiting for that first penetration.When his finger slid inside me, I moaned with pleasure. He pulled the finger out and replaced it with his swollen cock. He slid in slowly, one hand on my back and the other holding my hip. I didn’t want to move. Everything felt so good.I could feel the hair
Dive in Deep Naked
SadeI said my goodbyes to Khloe and Holly and went in search of Trent. I checked the back patio where I had seen him last. He wasn’t there. I drifted down the hall and spotted him in his office, sitting at his desk. He looked a little tired, but I hoped he wasn’t too tired. I had plans for him and his body.“Hey, husband of mine,” I said, startling him.He looked up from the laptop and smiled. “Hey, wife of mine.”“So, the house is empty. We’re alone, like really alone, for the first time in our new house with that big ol’ bed. Why aren’t we naked?”He grinned and closed the laptop. He got up from his chair and made his way toward me. His limp was noticeable as he moved. I imagined the strain of the day was catching up to him. I didn’t dare offer to wait until he was feeling better or comment on the knee at all. He didn’t need me reminding him of his injury.He reached for me, yanking my hips against his lower body, and kissed me soundly. I kissed him back, giving him all I had. My t
Dive in Deep One of a Kind
TrentI burst into laughter. “No!”Khloe nodded. “Yes. Me and the saleswoman had to talk him out of it.”“It wasn’t a real bear,” I protested.“All the same, it was ugly and just looked scary,” Khloe said.“I’m glad you opted for the other one,” Sade said.“Me too,” I agreed.Leia came bounding in through the doggy door I had put in for her. Her tongue lolled out of her mouth, and she had a huge smile on her face. She loved the backyard. I gave her a piece of pizza crust, which she eagerly chomped down and waited for more. After we had stuffed our faces with as much pizza as we could take, I went outside with Leia to check out the new deck furniture.The ladies joined me, marveling at the view and the massive backyard.“When did this get here?” Sade asked, looking at the furniture and the table set.I grimaced. “Yesterday.”She burst into laughter. “You’re dangerous with a credit card and a computer.”I held up a hand. “Technically, this was on Khloe.”Sade spun around. “What? You did
Dive in Deep Moving Day
TrentI was humming with energy. I had never been so damn excited in all my life. In my eyes, it was the first day of the rest of my life. Sure, I had plenty of those first days, but now it was really the first day. It was going to be the first day in our new house with all of our new things and our new marriage. It was like I had been waiting my entire life for this one day to happen.Now that it was finally here, I could hardly contain my excitement. I had kept poor Sade up until two o’clock packing. We’d called in reinforcements. Holly and Khloe were both carrying boxes to load into the three waiting cars.“Are you sure I can’t hire a rental truck?” I complained.“No, I don’t have anything that big,” Sade said again. “It’s just boxes. It will be faster to load everything in the cars and make one trip.”I wanted to whine and complain that it wasn’t going fast enough. Unfortunately, my leg had been acting up, and walking up and down the stairs proved to be too much.“I can hire mover
Dive in Deep Frantic
Sade“Thank you for worrying about me, but I promise I’m going to be okay,” I assured Trent.He leaned down and kissed my forehead. Khloe came out of the bedroom dressed in an outfit that showcased all of her assets. Her makeup was heavy, and she looked like she was ready to have a good time.“I’m outta here!” she said. “You kids behave yourselves, and don’t have sex on that couch. If that couch is staying here with me, I don’t want to be sitting where you guys have done it.”I grinned, giving her a sweet angelic smile. “How do you know we haven’t already done it on this couch?”Trent nearly choked.She wrinkled up her nose. “Gross.”“Bye!” I said, waving at her as she walked out the door.We waited a few minutes, making sure she wasn’t going to come back in. Trent nearly threw me off his lap as he got to his feet. He was hauling me to the bedroom with such haste, I nearly tripped over my own feet.It was a frantic joining, both of us tearing off our clothes and falling onto the bed.
Dive in Deep An Eye-Opener
SadeI went to work a little earlier than usual to try and catch up on the latest about what had happened the day before. It was a bit of a madhouse. Reps from various agencies were present, as well as bigwigs from the head of the company I worked for. Everyone wanted to know what happened. Everything and everyone were under scrutiny.I knew I wasn’t in trouble, but I still felt like there were a lot of eyes focused on the new girl. I kept my head down and concentrated on my work, doublechecking everything I did to make sure I didn’t make any mistakes. Holly was quiet as well. We were both doing what we could not to draw any attention to ourselves.All I could think about was getting home to Trent. I felt like I had nearly blown it with my little freak out over money. It was hard to accept so much from him. My dad was fiercely independent, never accepting a handout from anyone and making damn sure he expected the same from me.We’d always had what we needed, and I didn’t think I had e
Dive in Deep Joy
TrentI kept my thoughts to myself and finished making dinner. We sat down to eat, the tension thick in the room. It reminded me of the hours and minutes before a big thunderstorm hit. You could feel it in the air. You knew it was coming, but you didn’t know when that first boom of thunder would ring out.“I’m going to lay down,” Khloe said, clearing away her plate and quickly making her escape.She obviously sensed it as well. I knew our first fight was coming. I just wasn’t sure how big the fight was going to be or what it was going to be about. I couldn’t think of anything that had happened that would result in a fight. We’d had a minor disagreement about who was going to pay for what, but I was confident it had been settled.“I’m tired as well,” Sade announced and stood up.She quickly cleared away everything except my plate in front of me. I was definitely in hot water. I dreaded hearing it, but I needed to know what was going on. I didn’t like the tension between us. I finished
