Trent

We 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

    TrentIt didn’t alleviate the tension I felt in the tiny dining area with Justin sitting across from me. He was sipping his coffee, acting nonchalantly, but he had that look. The look that said one wrong move and he’d knock me out of the chair.Or maybe I was just being paranoid.Justin looked at me. I braced myself for the real interrogation. “How are you feeling?” he asked.It took me a split second to realize what he said. I breathed a mental sigh of relief before grinning widely. “Right as rain.”“Liar.”I chuckled. “I’m getting there. A little more coffee and maybe some toast, and I’ll be fine.”“If you hire Khloe, you plan on setting her up in one of your hotels back in Lake Tahoe?” Justin asked.I inwardly grimaced. Obviously, Sade hadn’t told him about my move. I felt like we were in a good place and he may as well know the whole story. I wanted him to know how serious I was about his daughter.“Actually, I’m planning to buy a hotel here,” I said.He raised both eyebrows. “Her

  • Dive in Deep   So Strange

    SadeIt was hard to focus on anything at work when all I wanted to do was be at home. It was a little strange to think my condo was full of people. I was here, and they were all there. I checked the time and was grateful to see I only had another hour.I had been texting Trent all day, making sure he and my dad hadn’t decided to kill each other. My dad had taken the news about Trent and me surprisingly well. There had been some raised eyebrows and a frown, but ultimately, he seemed okay with it.At least, that was what I was hoping. Part of me was convinced it was some war tactic. He was bluffing me into thinking he was okay with the situation in order to get me out of the house so he could be alone with my boyfriend. The texts throughout the day assured me I was wrong, and they were getting along fine.It was strange. Very strange. My dad and my boyfriend were hanging out at my place. I never thought I would be saying that. I liked it. I liked knowing they could get along. It was cer

    Sade“I’m leaving after dinner,” Trent replied. “I have to. Trust me. I don’t want to, but I have an early meeting.”“I understand,” I said. “What about you, Dad?”“I’ll be around for the week, and then I need to go home and discuss the next step with your mom.”I smiled. “I’m happy to have you for as long as you can stay.”“I’ll be busy, but I hope we can have at least one more dinner together before I go back.”“I’d like that,” I answered.“Tell me about this house you bought,” my dad said to Trent.Trent wiped his mouth with a napkin. “It’s not far from here. It has a nice backyard and a pool. I have a dog, and she needs plenty of room to run.”He nodded. I could see him sizing Trent up. He’d been accepting so far, but I knew he likely had a lot more questions about our relationship and what it meant that Trent was moving close to me. My dad looked at me. I looked down at my plate. I knew he wanted to ask about the living arrangements. I wasn’t prepared to get into all of that just

    Trent “Let’s go!” I hollered at Leia, who had clearly missed me. She had barely left my side since I’d gotten home last night. The poor dog had probably thought I abandoned her. I promised her I would never leave her for that long again.I couldn’t help but laugh as she raced toward me across the green lawn, carrying her favorite bone. If dogs smiled, she was grinning big, her jowls flying in the wind as she ran. She dropped it at my feet, waiting for me to toss it again. She was a strange dog. She didn’t much care to fetch sticks, but she would fetch her bone all day.“No more. It’s time to go in.”She followed behind me as I walked into the kitchen. Mira was just arriving. I had pushed my meeting back thirty minutes so I would have a chance to speak with her about my coming move. I wasn’t sure how she would take the news.“You’re still here?” Mira asked, coming into the kitchen.I smiled. “I am. I wanted to talk to you.”“Oh? About?”I sucked in a deep breath. “I’m moving.”She rai

It was a little awkward, but he seems to be okay with us being together.”“Her dad was your boss in the Army?” he asked.I laughed at the way he put it. “Yes, something like that.”“And he didn’t threaten to shoot you for doing the nasty with his daughter?”I groaned. “You’re ridiculous. No, he didn’t threaten to shoot me. Well, he did mention something about yanking my balls off and shoving them down my throat, but it was all in good fun.”Richie winced. “That sounds like a great time,” he muttered.I laughed. “It’s all good. I promised him I wouldn’t do anything to hurt her and would never disrespect her. I think he believes me.”“I guess you’re all set over there,” he said.“I am. Or I soon will be.” “She’s okay with this? You moving and crowding her?”“I’m not going to crowd her, and yes, she’s okay

    SadeHolly walked along beside me, chatting away about anything and everything. We were headed back to my place to have dinner together. Khloe had ordered pizza, and we were going to have a girls’ night. Something I was looking forward to, especially with a new friend.Technically, it wasn’t going to be just girls. My dad would be there for part of the evening. I didn’t mind. He was used to me being chatty and girly with my friends. He said he liked watching young people have fun and live carefree lives.“You live pretty close to work,” Holly commented when I pointed out my building.“Yes, I do, which is why I walk,” I said with a laugh.“I think I might look for a place a little closer,” she commented.“Honey, I’m home,” I called as I opened the door.“Ha, ha,” Khloe said, getting up from her spot on the couch. She had her laptop in her hands as she walked to the table.“Khloe, this is Holly. Holly, my old and now current roommate, Khloe.” They both went through the cursory hellos b

    Sade“Yes. I’m sure I can manage the house. If things get to be too much, I’ll let you know,” I told Trent.“Good. I need to find a driver and that is non-negotiable. You can’t walk to work from the new house.”I grimaced, realizing he was right. “I’ll buy a car.”“I’ll buy you a car.”I laughed. “No. I’ll buy my own car. If I’m living in your—”“Ours,” he corrected. “It’s ours.”“I can afford a car if I’m living with you,” I said, knowing damn well the man would never take a penny from me.I felt a little better about the huge difference in our incomes. I didn’t feel like he was buying me. We were together. He just happened to earn about a billion times more than I did.“All right, but I’ll still need a driver. Plus, there will be those times when we want to enjoy a few glasses of wine and we’ll need a ride.”“You’re right,” I said. “So, what else is on your mind?” He laughed. “You know me so well.”“I’m getting to know you better every day.”“I’m good.

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

    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

    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

    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

    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?

    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

    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

    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
