TAMMY’S POV“Get on me.” Sean breathed into my mouth as we kissed, deep and hot, on the back seat of the parked limousine. I moved from my seat next to him and straddled his lap, facing his gorgeous face. His eyes smoldered with lust for me in this tight mini dress he bought me.As I seat myself in his lap, my legs parted over him, I can feel his stiffness against my entrance. I softly start riding his bulge, weaving my fingers through his hair, tilting his head back so that I can suck on his bottom lip.“Fuck, Tam. I haven’t felt you like this in a while. I forgot how damn good it feels.”“Mmm-mm, tell me about it.”, I agree, moving to his top lip to take a nibble. I feel the moist heat on my panties as Sean says “Do you want me inside of you?” I giggle in response, “It was hard enough getting this dress on, I don’t know how I’m supposed to take it off.”“No need.” he grins, lifting me by my hips ever so slightly, enough for him to unbuckle his belt and unzip his pants. “But befor
TAMMY’S POVI slowly sit up in the bed, rubbing my tired eyes open. It must be close to 2AM in the morning. It can only be Sue and Sean up at this time, unless it’s Ángel and Valentina but there is no way in hell they’re still in the apartment, they’re not live-in staff. Sue told me she couldn’t possibly share the same floor of an apartment with her service staff.I hear a loud laugh followed by a shhh sound. It seems like they don’t want to be heard. Why are they sneaking around?I quietly get out of bed and tiptoe to the bedroom door. I still can’t hear the chatter properly. I need to get closer.I stalk past the guest rooms and stop before the living room archway. It’s definitely Sean and Sue. I start feeling nervous. What do I think I’m going to hear? Didn’t I just accept the fact that I was being insecure and jealous when it comes to their relationship? For them to be up chatting at this hour doesn’t help my neurotic brain. Maybe if I can make out what they’re saying it’ll put m
TAMMY’S POVI quickly stumble to my feet and back to my bedroom where I try to close the door as softly as possible and jump back into bed. I close my eyes, needing to fall back asleep. But I can’t. Not as I hear a set of footsteps walking down the hallway and towards the bedroom. The door to our bedroom swings open. I don’t look over but I know Sean is standing in the doorway, looking at me hiding away in the bed.“Tammy?” Sean asks from the doorway.“Tammy, come on, I heard you in the hallway just now. Were you listening to my conversation with Sue? Listen, we were just joking…Tam? Honey?”I’m frozen in anger, wanting to confront him but not knowing what to say. He walks into the room and sits at the foot of the bed. He tries to rub my foot under the cover but I pull away.So much for my “sleeping’ act. Now he knows I’m wide awake and that it was me hiding in the hallway. “Tammy, look, Sue just wants what’s best for us, okay? Yes, she got those tickets to the concert and bought yo
TAMMY’S POVI wake up feeling exhausted. I make quick work of getting up and getting dressed. I have one thing on my mind and I need an answer. I know Valentina is working somewhere in this apartment.I find her in one of the guest rooms, obviously cleaning the bedroom that Sean had slept in last night. She spots me and stops fluffing the pillows.“Buenos días Missus Saunders.” she says meekly.“Good morning, Valentina.”There’s an awkward pause as I struggle to ask outright about the emergency contraception pills I found in Sean’s study drawer. Valentina quickly cuts in to try and pry the words out from me.“How can I help you, Missus Saunders? Is there something you need in your room? A fresh set of towels?”“Valentina…I…er…need to ask you something. I found some…medication in Mr Saunders study.”I see a sudden shift in her facial expression. She looks worried. “Ah, yes, Missus Saunders. The medication in Mister Saunders office room.”So she knows about the emergency contraceptive.
TAMMY’S POVAfter Sean and Sue disappear into the study, I can’t just sit here alone in the kitchen.The way Sean put his arm around Sue when they were walking towards the study made me feel uncomfortable. And the way he spoke into her ear, I know how that feels. Because he gets that close to me and speaks into my ear when he lusts for me.It always manages to make me hot and bothered but it’s been a while since I’ve felt that. I decide to give Rain a bath. It could be a great distraction from the fact that Sean’s attention has been redirected to Sue. Again.The last thing I want to do is start a fight with Sean by going to check in on him and Sue in the study. “Rain!” I call out and he comes running down the hall to me, tail wagging, “you ready for a bath?” I fill the tub full of warm water and get out the special doggy shampoo from the clinic. Time for Rain to get in, but he looks apprehensive as I pick him up and slowly place him in the bath water.I’m glad I changed into an ol
TAMMY’S POV“Are you fucking serious, Sean? ” I screamed at him.“That dog was aggressive! He bit Sue! How did you think bringing a dog home was a good idea?”“Sean, he was a rescued puppy. We still had to train him. I was ready to commit to having Rain be a part of our family. How could you do this?”“To be honest, I didn’t like that stray anyway. I would have just put a bullet through its head if I found it on the side of the road, just put it out of its misery.” Sean said coolly.I choke on whatever words are coming up, I’m at a complete loss. How could he be so unfeeling like that? Harming a poor, innocent animal? I feel queasy.Sean knows how passionate about animals as a veterinarian. That my soul purpose is to heal and save them every chance I can. He must know that speaking of harming an animal in front of me would break my heart into a million pieces. “And please, Tammy, don’t bring home any more strays.” Sean said as he took another sip of whiskey. I hardly recognise this ma
TAMMY’S POVI get into my car and pull out of the apartment parking garage at quite a speed. The roads are quiet, it must be close to midnight. On the drive to the shelter Tito had directed me to on the phone earlier, I ruminate about how Sean ended up taking Rain to the shelter and the actual size of the wound on Sue’s arm. Rain was such a well-behaved pup in the week that I had him. Puppies are known for biting objects like furniture or shoes. But I made sure to have enough teething toys for him so that he wouldn’t feel the need to bite anything important or expensive in the house.Valentina even enjoyed having him around. I overheard her talking to Rain when he would sit with her, going from room to room as she cleaned. Ángel even started giving Rain some offcuts of meat when he was done cooking Sue’s meals in the kitchen. Rain would be so well-behaved, sitting politely waiting for Ángel to command him to take it “gently, gently” from his hand. Could it be that Sue was antagoni
TAMMY’S POVI sit down on the barstool next to Gideon. How could I pass up his offer to grab a drink after he helped me save Rain from the shelter?I make sure Rain is securely fastened to the open barstool next to me with a bowl of water that the bar staff didn’t mind pouring for him. He promptly falls asleep on the floor, exhausted after what he’d been through today.It’s pretty late but the last place I want to be right now is home. I’m not sure if Sean and Sue are back from their run to the hospital for her ‘bite’ and I definitely didn’t want Sean to see that I’d rescued Rain from the shelter. I order a cocktail as Gideon sips on his beer. “High-risk adoption, huh?” I ask, circling back to why he was at the shelter when I arrived there an hour ago.“Yeah, I was locating two wild lynxes that were being circulated through a trade syndicate. They ended up in that kill shelter. After we get them out of there and into our rehabilitation centre, we go after the sick fucks that put them
