Trent

I pulled up my emails and read one from my accountant before moving on. I had been working about an hour when I heard a knock on my door.

“Come in,” I called out, expecting Ashley to come in.

“Hi, am I interrupting you?” Sade’s voice filled the room.

I jumped to my feet. “No. Sorry. I didn’t expect you so soon.”

“Are you busy?”

“No, definitely not. Come in.”

She opened the door, allowing Julia and Khloe to enter as well.

“Hi,” Julia said, flashing me a smile.

“Hello, ladies. Are you guys all checked out?” I gestured for them to sit.

I took a seat on the opposite couch, Sade sitting next to me. “We are.”

“What time does your flight leave?” I asked.

“We’re all on different flights, but we leave around the same time,” Khloe answered.

“How long?” I asked.

“A couple of hours before we have to take the airport shuttle,” Sade replied.

I nodded. “Why don’t we get some lunch in the restaurant? My treat. I’ll have Bentley take you to the airport, save you the hassle of riding the shuttle

    SadeI was exhausted and mentally drained. And a little depressed. It had been a short flight home, but when I’d gotten to my new condo, I had taken one look at all the boxes that needed unpacking and decided against it. I was in no mood for anything.Instead, I had left my mattress on the floor, made my makeshift bed, and texted Trent. I felt bad and a little happy when he told me he had gone home for the day. He was feeling down as well.After texting with him and the girls, I had curled up and gone to sleep. The night before had left me exhausted. I had unpacked a few of the kitchen boxes so far that morning. It felt strange to put things where I wanted without worrying about what a roommate would think.It was the first time I was completely on my own in the world. I felt terribly alone. Khloe was in San Francisco and Julia in Los Angeles. I knew no one in Fresno. It was just me.I found my Bluetooth speaker and put on some music, needing to fill the silence. I kept telling myself

  • Dive in Deep   Unexpected Visitor

    SadeI was hungry, and I had nothing to eat. I searched through the pile of boxes until I found my purse and a matching pair of shoes. Then, I was out the door to do a little exploration of my new neighborhood. I had chosen the condo because it was within walking distance to everything. I planned on buying a car soon, but in the meantime, I was relying on my feet and public transportation.The walk reminded me of Trent. Hell, everything reminded me of Trent. If I was with him, he would have insisted his driver take me around. I can’t say I minded being spoiled. It had been nice. I saw a grocery store across the street and jogged over. I was going to eat my feelings—just for tonight, I promised myself.I picked up a pint of ice cream, a Lean Cuisine, and some granola, something else that reminded me of Trent. I tossed a few more things in my basket, including coffee for the morning, before checking out. Then, it was another lonely walk back home. Back home where I would sit in my condo

    TrentI stared at her, unable to stop grinning as I watched her shocked expression change into a small smile. I got to my feet, dusted off my butt, and grabbed the bouquet of flowers I had picked up for her.She was staring at me, shaking her head. “You’re here?” I nodded, looking down at my feet. “It appears to be that way.”“You’re here. I don’t understand. How?”“Well, as it turns out, it only takes me about an hour to get here by helicopter,” I said with a smile.“You flew here?” she gasped.“Not me personally. I lost my wings in the war.” I winked.She slapped at me. “I can’t believe you’re here!”“I am. Are you going to invite me in or stand out here staring at me all day?”She shook her head. “I’m absolutely blown away. You amaze me.”“Can I have a hug?” I asked.She lunged at me, throwing one arm around me, her other hand holding her bags. “I’m so glad to see you.”“I’m glad to see you, too. Here, you take these.” I handed her the flowers. “And I’ll take these.” I took the ba

  • Dive in Deep   Why He Came

    TrentWe headed out, walking hand in hand on the warm summer night. My leg was a little stiff, causing a slight limp, but I didn’t mind. I loved walking with her. It made me feel closer to her, like we were headed in the same direction in a figurative sense rather than a literal. We were a team.When I gave my name to the hostess, I made sure to slip her a hundred-dollar bill. She smiled and led us to the table that was kind of out of place, but it worked.I ordered two glasses of their finest wine and settled in, my hand holding hers on the table. “I like the area.”“Have you ever been to Fresno?” she asked.“Nope. My first time. I like it here.”She shrugged a shoulder. “My dad wasn’t thrilled with my choice, citing all kinds of statistics on crime and such, but I think you just have to be prepared and keep your eyes open.”“I’m not going to lie,” I said. “I worry about you as well. But I did a little scouting around your area, and it seems safe enough, but in the winter when the da

    TrentI knew I’d dropped a bit of a bombshell on her. My declaration that I wanted to try a long-distance relationship was likely very unexpected.We’d known each other a week. That was it. But to me, it felt like I had known her for years. It was as if my soul recognized hers. I knew her inside and out. I was the first man to touch her. That had to count for something.I studied her face. She was shocked. I wasn’t necessarily trying to get her drunk, but she’d downed her wine and looked like she could use another glass. I held up my hand to get the waiter’s attention and ordered two more glasses of wine. Judging by the look on her face, I had a feeling I was going to need the alcohol to dull the blow she was about to deal me.“Sade?” I said her name, checking the pulse of the situation.“Um,” she murmured, not looking me in the eyes.“Did I freak you out?”“What?” she asked, her voice high-pitched and clearly nervous. “Freak me out? Freak me out about what?”“I’m sorry to have surpri

    TrentWe ordered the typical steak dinner with smothered baked potatoes. I was hungry and was hoping the food was as good as it sounded. “How was your first day really?” I asked her.She grinned. “Boring as hell,” she said bluntly.I laughed. “I hate the first day anywhere. All the blah, blah, blah. I wonder if anyone ever pays attention to the same, boring speech that every company gives on the first day. With my hotels, I thought I could skip that whole boring orientation garbage, but it is a necessary evil. Even though the questions that are covered in the orientation are always brought up again and again.”“It wasn’t terrible. I’m just anxious to get started with the good stuff. I want to put all those years of school to work. I have to or I’m going to forget everything I learned.” She laughed.“I doubt that,” I said with full confidence in her. “You’re a smart lady. I think you’ll be running the lab in no time.”“Thank you. I hope you’re right. How about you? Did you get the new

    SadeI couldn’t believe he was standing in my bedroom. Even more impressive was the fact he wanted to have a relationship with me. Me! The man was gorgeous, rich, and incredibly sexy, and he wanted me. I was a little weirded out by his extreme wealth, but he hadn’t exactly brought it up, and I wasn’t going to admit I’d Googled him.He didn’t want to talk about it, and it didn’t really make a difference to me. I wasn’t interested in him because of his money. In fact, his money actually bothered me a little. I felt like I couldn’t compete with the people in his life. I quickly shut down that line of thinking. I had the man in front of me, and that was what really mattered.I pushed his shirt open, gently shoving it down his arms and leaving him standing in a plain white shirt that hugged his body. It showed off the muscular chest and arms I had been absolutely gaga about when I first saw him shirtless on his yacht. To think those muscles were mine to touch and kiss and anything else I w

    SadeTrent moved his hips, just a little jerk but enough to send electric shocks radiating through my body. I groaned, arching my back and rotating my hips. I heard him mutter something under his breath. I was sure it was something like fuck, but I couldn’t be sure.“Baby, I am so hard for you.”“I feel that,” I moaned.I began to move, sliding back and forth. His hands rested on my hips, letting me control the speed. I liked feeling in control. I was a novice in the sex department, but I knew he would let me learn, with him teaching me all the tricks. He would tell me what was right and what was not. He wouldn’t laugh at me if I messed up.“So good,” he moaned. “You feel so good.”“I like this,” I told him, rubbing my hands over his chest.“Want to go faster?” he asked.I smiled. “Do you want me to go faster?”“You do whatever makes you feel good,” he answered.I picked up the pace, testing my skills as I moved faster and faster.

    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

    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
