“Um…thank you Iris.” Sienna wanted to slap herself. Literally two seconds in and she already outed herself. This wouldn’t go well. “Do we know each other? You seem a little familiar.” Iris said. “Um, I follow your page on social media. Your wellness one. I see your videos all the time.”“Aw, that’s amazing. Well thanks for following. Have you been to Touch and Glow at all?”“Um…no, not really. I’ve wanted to but I don’t know.”“Well don’t be shy! You should come on in! What’s your name?” Iris questioned. “C…ierra. My name is Cierra.”“With an S or C?”“C.”“My favorite way to spell it,” Iris smiled. “Let me take down your information Cierra. See if I can convince you to come in and do a session with me. I’m really gentle I promise.”Sienna’s mind was racing thinking about Iris’s hands on her. If it was anything like Donovan described she wanted nothing more than to experience that.They exchanged numbers before Iris’s phone rang. “Sorry, it’s my boyfriend, one sec. Hey baby.”Sie
Sienna thought Touch and Glow was beautiful.It was everything she had imagined it to be. She also thought that it matched Iris’s personality. “Hi, I’m here to see Iris,” Sienna smiled at Korah.“Are you Cierra?”“I am.”“Oh yay! I’ll go get her. Iris has been talking about you all week!” She giggled. Sienna felt special. A woman like Iris was talking about her? How amazing.“Cierra!” Iris hurried over and hugged her. “Loving these leggings!”“Oh thank you. I wasn’t sure what to wear.” Sienna admitted. “You look perfect. Come back to my office.”Sienna followed her to the back and sat down across from her desk. “Okay, let’s get to know you and your body!” Iris smiled. “What’s your last name?”“Smith.”“Okay, Cierra Smith. What do you do for work?”“Um, nothing, actually. Just a lot of hobbies. Cooking, gardening, shopping.”She felt she shouldn’t mention her obscene amounts of stalking.Iris’s eyes landed on Sienna’s ring. “You’re married?”“No. I mean yes, I was. He…died.”“Oh, h
Sienna’s heart dropped.Neither of the men could see her here. “Um…you know what? Maybe next time? I have another appointment I have to get to.” Sienna stated. “Oh, okay,” Iris hugged her. “See you next week, okay?”“Yeah, enjoy your trip.” Sienna hurried off. She saw Emile entering the front door and she ducked into the women’s bathroom quickly. She stared at herself in the mirror and suddenly realized how much of a lunatic she was. Why was she here?What did she gain from spending time with Iris? It was just going to complicate things even more. But Iris was so fun and sweet. She made her feel good about herself, even if she was sleeping with her husband. When she felt the coast was clear she slipped out of the bathroom and hurried to her car. She sighed heavily, vowing she would end this friendship with Iris. She had to.Sienna glanced in her rearview mirror and saw Emile and Iris hand in hand as they exited the building. She sank in her seat so they wouldn’t see her. Sienna’s
Iris loved going to the lake house.The drive there was her favorite part. She loved the high trees that hid the sun and the winding roads. It made her feel like she was in a whole different world. She also loved how it made Emile. He became relaxed and smiled much more. Emile could be a very serious man and he had been for years. Up until he met Iris, life wasn’t very fun and adventurous for him and now he had a good reason to smile.Emile glanced over at Iris as she looked out of the window happily. He also loved seeing her this way. She was content and so beautiful in nature.“You’re gorgeous,” Emile commented. “So are you.” She whispered. “I’m so glad we got to get away.”“Me too. I need to show you how much you mean to me. I’ve been slacking and I don’t like it.”“You’re only saying that because you have competition.”“Okay, I’m invoking a rule right now. We don’t speak about my wife or your boyfriend for the duration of this trip. This is just about us and should stay that way
Iris was cooking dinner for Emile when she got a phone call.It was from Sienna.“Hi Cierra, what’s up?” Iris answered. Sienna was sobbing. “I-I’m so sorry Iris, I know you’re away on your trip, but I didn’t know who else to call!”“What’s wrong babe?”“I met this really wonderful man tonight. He was attentive and sweet and he really liked me and…he asked me to go to his room with him and I said no!”“Was he mean to you for saying no or something?” Iris asked.“No, he was really nice, but I’m so mad at myself! I’m hung up on someone who doesn’t even really love me! I could have had a good night of sex, but all I’m thinking about is a married man!”“Oh honey. I’m sure your boyfriend does love you.”“He doesn’t! He’s with the woman he loves right now. She’s better than me in every way!” Sienna wailed. “Hey, you listen to me, Cierra! There is not a woman on this planet better than you. You are beautiful and funny and immaculate. If that man doesn’t realize that, then fuck him! You dese
“So how’s the trip going?” Sienna asked Emile.“Pretty good. Just a bunch of testosterone, you know how it is.” Emile chuckled as he looked around and made sure Iris was nowhere near. “What are you up to?”“Not much. I’ve been going out for drinks since I’m lonely.”“What about your new friend?” “Oh, she's busy this weekend. But I’ll be seeing her next week.”“‘That’s good. Well I should get going. The guys are already on my ass for talking to you.” Emile stated. “If you say so. I love you, Emile.”“Yeah, you too.” He hung up.Sienna was trying to remember the last time Emile had actually said the words ‘I love you’ to her. When did he stop saying it? When did it become ‘Me too’ and ‘You too’. Had he truly fallen out of love enough that he couldn't even lie with that phrase?Sometimes Sienna wished she wasn’t in love with Emile. That it didn’t matter that he was with other women because she didn’t care. It would make her life so much easier. Unfortunately she was still deeply in lov
Donovan wasn’t sure if he should tell Iris what he had done.He knew she wouldn’t be thrilled about him going to Emile’s office and threatening him, but he couldn’t help himself. Though he knew exactly what he was getting into when he started dating Iris, he had underestimated how hard it would be to see her be in love with another man. “You okay?” Iris broke him out of his thoughts.“Um, I have to tell you something.”“Sounds serious.”“It is. I um…I know about Emile.”“What do you know about him?” Iris questioned. “That you’re also sleeping with him.” Donovan stated. “Okay.”“Okay? That's all you have to say?”“Well it’s true, so what do you want me to say?”“That you’ll stop.”“But that would be a lie, babe.” Iris stated. “I don’t lie about things like that.”“And I’m supposed to be okay knowing that you’re also fucking a married man?” Donovan demanded. “I didn’t realize you were so jealous, Donovan, I’m sorry.”“I-I’m not jealous! I just don’t like sharing! How are we ever sup
Sienna thought she might be in love.No one had ever kissed her the way Iris had. She was passionate and eager and her lips were so soft. With one heated kiss, Sienna fully understood her husband’s obsession with Iris. And now she had one of her own. Iris pulled away from Sienna, worried she had gone too far with the kiss. Sienna stared at her for a moment before kissing her again. She couldn’t help herself, she needed more. The two women made out in the middle of the floor for minutes, each knowing they should pull away but not wanting too. Their lips continued to slide over one another’s, while their tongues swirled together with the lingering taste of vodka. Their hands softly danced over one another’s bodies, gently groping and caressing. Finally once again they pulled away from each other and Sienna laughed. “This is crazy!”“I think you need some air!” Iris grabbed her hand and pulled her through the crowd. They both inhaled deeply when they got outside. Fresh air. “So um…
