Alex
He kisses me hard, insistently, a promise of more to come. A promise of
everything. When he pulls away, I see desire burning hot and bright,
warming his icy blue eyes. My heart soars. At long last! I pull him close,
press myself against him, letting him know I’m his to do with as he pleases.
He kisses me again, possessively, demanding, his hands everywhere, his
body over mine, poised. I can feel the need radiate off him, mirroring my
own. This time there would be no stopping, no hesitation.
This time there will be fire…
A phone rings, loud and clamoring.
“No…”
He pulls away, taking all the heat with him, leaving me cold and
trembling, aching with want. “Sorry, I have to get this…”
I jolted upright, as if someone had tossed a bucket of ice water down
my back. My hand snaked out to silence the alarm clock that had invaded
my dreams, and I sank back into the pillows, my heart pounding, my breath
coming fast. The dream was gone but the aching need between my legs was
wide-awake. Though I knew it was futile, I turned and reached for him.
Drew’s side of the bed was empty. Cold. As if he hadn’t slept there
at all, though I knew he had. He’d come in from the downstairs office
around two a.m., slipping into the bed as quietly as he could so as not to
wake me. But I hadn’t slept. My closing argument had been banging around
in my head as I sought to put the words in their perfect order, crafting it into
a sword that would ram into the heart of the defense, slaying their case
dead.
As I heard the whisper of sheets I had thought—briefly—of
reaching for Drew, to slip into his arms and become lost in him, let pleasure
glide us into a restful sleep for the few hours that remained until we both
had to be up again. But he’d turned his back to me and was asleep almost
immediately. I had the dream—as unsatisfying as reality—instead.
Now, I listened for the shower but the bedroom suite was silent. A faint
mist hung in the air, heavy with the scents of Drew’s soap and cologne. I
glanced at the clock that hadn’t even allowed me to have Drew in my
dreams. Two minutes after six. He’s up earlier than usual. I remembered he
had an important meeting that morning and he didn’t want to risk getting
stuck in traffic.
And I had closing arguments for the most important case of my
career. Why was I wasting my thoughts—and time—on a silly dream?
I threw the covers off and swung my legs over the side of the kingsize bed, pausing a moment to mentally organize my day. Schedules,
research, depositions, lunch with the Posse. But first and foremost, those
closing arguments.
