When we’re in the kitchen, I open the fridge and pull out eggs and orange juice. “Hungry?”His eyes roam my chest and then my ass. “Always,” he says, instantly making me wet.“For eggs?”“You’re blushing again, Piper.”I set everything on the counter and grip the edge. “I think you’re flirting with me.”“Just flirting?” he asks as he rounds the island. “Nothing else?”“Everything else is against the rules,” I tell him as I bite my lip to keep from smiling.“Fuck the rules. I would have kissed you last night when you went to the restroom at the restaurant, but it wasn’t the right place. Not with Cannon there. But he’s gone now, and I have you all to myself. And I want to kiss you right here.”“Just one kiss?” I question. “Or will one kiss lead to more?”“Now, I think you’re the one flirting with me.”He inches closer, and I can barely swallow, my throat’s so dry. This little game of cat and mouse we’re playing can only end one way—with me on my back and him on top of me.“I’m asking yo

Her back stiffens, so I stop walking and kiss her. “It doesn’t have to be the shower in your bedroom, Piper. I’m just dirty and sweaty from my run this morning, and I need a place where I can get clean.” I graze a finger across her nipple, knowing how much she likes that. “And, since there are some spots on my body that I can’t reach, you’re coming in with me.”Her smile returns. “Once you get into the hallway, it’ll be the second door on your left.”My mouth goes right back to ravaging hers, and once we’re inside the bathroom, I set her on the counter next to the sink. I ditch my socks and sneakers, shorts, boxers, and T-shirt, leaving them on the floor, before I begin working on her. As soon as she’s naked, I turn on the water, and then I lift her again and move us inside the tub.“Ah!” she screams when the water hits her. “It’s freezing.”“You won’t be cold for long.”I hold her against the wall, her legs still wrapped around me, with my cock resting on her clit. She rocks over it,

When she finally stills, I release her clit and run my palm over it to soothe the skin. Then, I take my fingers out of her and clutch both ass cheeks.“How’d that feel?”It takes her a few seconds to catch her breath. “It’s never been like that before.”I can say the same thing. “You need a minute?”She shakes her head and steadies herself against the wall, so she can rise and fall on top of me. “No, I need to feel that again.”Mmm, that’s my girl.I use her ass to hold her against me and pump myself in and out. “Don’t let go of me, Piper. This is going to be different than what I’ve given you before.”“Different?”“And, if you don’t want your back burned to shit, you’d better keep it off the wall.”“You think it’ll burn—”Her words turn into the loudest moan I’ve ever heard from her as I use every bit of speed and strength in my body to slam into her. When I pull back, I only go halfway before I bury my shaft again. And, with my hips tilted at such an angle, I can rub her clit with t
Lover 41
Sad that we’re still in two different worlds that no longer revolve around each other. He used to be so in tune to my body that he’d have noticed my flushed skin or how dilated my pupils still are from West making me orgasm so many times. Now, he has his work and whatever it is he’s doing. And I have West, my own secret.My phone vibrates, and I stare at it.West: You okay?Piper: He left.Instead of replying in a text, my phone rings. West’s never called me before, and I stare at the screen, unsure of if I should answer it. Then, I realize how stupid I’m being. He was just inside me, so of course, I can take his call.“Piper?” he asks when I say nothing.“Yeah. Sorry.”“What’s wrong?”“I don’t know. Nothing. Maybe everything.” My head’s spinning; that’s all I know.My husband just came home, changed clothes, and ran out the door. Nothing about that is normal. Usually, I’m at work, so maybe he’s done this before. But he didn’t touch me, and our eyes never connected; that’s the exact o
Lover 42
What the fuck is wrong with me?I should be more careful and certainly less disrespectful. It’s shitty enough that I cheated; I don’t have to rub it in her face, too.But, by doing so, I now know my wife has showered and brushed her teeth. The part that doesn’t make sense is why she got back in bed. Does she just want more sleep, or is she trying to hide that she went out or had someone over?The thought of another man inside her should piss me off. And there was a time in our relationship when it would have—the months she was carrying my son and a few ones that followed when we were both recovering.But now?The anger isn’t there. Neither is the jealousy.Tilly needs constant attention. Without hockey taking up so much of my time, I should have plenty to give her. The need just isn’t there, especially since things with Piper started heating up.Leaving the league and moving to Florida has only added more cracks in our marriage.That isn’t her fault.It isn’t mine either.“Mmm,” she m
Lover 43
Traffic’s light, and I know I have more than enough time to swing by the courthouse before West shows up at the park. On the way there, I pass Cannon’s office. The lot’s nearly empty, and his story starts to add up. They’re in court today.But, when I pull onto the street in front of the courthouse, I start searching for Cannon’s car. He’s not parked along the street at a meter and not in either of the two lots; the only place left is the parking garage a block over.It takes me a minute to get through two sets of traffic lights, and when I do, I take a ticket from the attendant and start circling around the levels. Every fifth car seems to be a black Mercedes, so I move at a snail’s pace, all while trying to blend in.When I get to the rooftop and haven’t spotted the car, I loop back through and try again, assuming I missed it. But my gut tells me I haven’t. Cannon has a sticker on the back windshield—an autism awareness lightbulb one of my students slapped on at the fundraising walk
Lover 44
He probably has enough money to retire and never work another day in his life, but that doesn’t seem like the kind of man he is. He’s ambitious and antsy, just like me.“I’m actually talking to someone. A couple of broadcasting opportunities are out there, but I haven’t taken them too seriously yet.”“That sounds exciting.”“Yeah.”“Are they local?” I blush when I ask him. Mostly because it would break my heart if he took a job clear across the country, so I wouldn’t get to see him. I already know I’ll struggle once I go back to teaching. I’m so used to our morning routine, it’ll be weird, not meeting on the beach first thing each day.West reads me like a book and smirks. “Don’t worry; we can still fuck on your lunch breaks. I’m not going anywhere.”“You and that mouth. So direct.”He leans into me and nibbles on my neck. “I’ll fuck you right here, Piper. Don’t challenge me when it comes to your pussy.”Nobody was near us when I sat down, but I still glance over my shoulder to make s
Lover 45
“If that’s what you want, they can come over here.”Swinging is on Tilly. The affair is on me. I’m not mixing those worlds by telling my wife how much I want to be inside another woman. Things will end between Tilly and me because our marriage isn’t working. Piper isn’t going to be the cause of it. I won’t put that on her, and I certainly won’t do that to my wife.“I’m down for it,” she says. “Cannon’s been fun.” She walks over to the desk and looks at the screen. She doesn’t say anything as she checks out the emails. She just climbs on my lap and straddles my legs. “I haven’t asked because I just assume you’ve been happy, but you’re not looking to find a new couple to swing with, are you?”I shake my head. “Things are good the way they are.”“I agree. Cannon is just starting to be the kind of lay I need, and I don’t feel like going through another training period with some other guy. This one was exhausting enough.”I smile. “He’s having a hard time making you come?”I have to think,
