He had woken up to an empty bed but upon turning his face right, he was greeted by the sight of his woman standing in all glory with a see through night dress which had his member throbbing with need." Morning," Martina replied, her gaze scanning the outside which to her was a breathtaking view. Staying with her mother in another country, she had not had the chance to tour the world.Her mother was not capable enough to sponsor for that and when she finally got a job, she concentrated on making their lives better." What got you so hooked?" Dimitri asked, his hands brushing the stray strands of her hair while he kissed her neck." The scenery outside. Isn't it beautiful?"

Dimitri asked, stepping in with his already half hard shaft.Martina took him in her arms, kissing him deeply while she pulled his lower lip with her teeth, massaging his erection with her soft hands." Don't pretend like you have not been fantasising about this." Martina breathed out as her lips continued to assault his own." I won't deny that." Dimitri grinned, pushing her away." But, I want to admire you first. Everytime I look at you, I feel like it's our First time meeting and being intimate." Dimitri confessed.To him, it didn't matter how many times they spent together or made love, everytime, it gave him a new experience. It felt like it was always a new start

    Dimitri swallowed hard when Martina circled his work table. She pushed his computer aside together with the files he was working on before sensually flopping herself on his desk.All this while, their eyes were still trained to each other, no one dared to look away." I have been thinking about doing something for you." Martina said, biting her lower lip. Her lustful eyes trained on Dimitri's lips.Her sinful hands travelled to his abs as she started roaming them all over his chest." What is it goddess, tell me?" Dimitri replied in a strained voice. It sounded like the words were struggling to be voiced out." I am dying to kiss you so badly." She confessed, her thumb now tracing his lower lip."

Martina snapped at her. She hated the smirk dancing at the corner of her lips because that meant she was in for a round of teasing." Nothing. For someone who hated the guy, ain't things moving too fast between the two of you?" Marina asked with a carefree smile." Why? Are you jealous that your fiance has not taken you out ?" Martina shot back,a smirk playing at the corner of her lips." Honestly, yes. Your man treats you so well. I'm jealous." She replied straightforwardly." Well if he doesn't take you out, take him out yourself. Who said it always has to be the man doing the courting?" Martina smirked." Listen who is talking like a love guru." Marina mocked but Martina shrugged." Take my advice Sister. Your man is a stone, don't expect him to act like a normal human." Martina jabbed, earning a glare from
