CHAPTER FIFTEEN

“Hey, good-looking,” a woman’s voice said over the telephone. Bree sat in the back-porch swing, enjoying the cloudless sky.

“Hey, yourself. Who’s this?” Bree couldn’t quite place her.

“Who’d you expect? Linda?”

The tinge of jealousy clued Bree in. “Ann. Are you calling from Hawaii?”

“No, silly. I decided to come home early so I could see you.”

Yes, this was definitely Ann in her jealous-flirtatious mode. How could Bree ever forget it? The few times she’d tried to break it off with Ann in high school, her possessiveness had surfaced immediately and pulled Bree back in every time.

“I thought you’d be happily married by now and have decided to stay even longer.” Bree tried not to sound bitter but couldn’t stop herself.

“No. Things didn’t work out the way I expected. Can you imagine being bored in Hawaii?”

“No.” Bree watched a large leaf float to the ground.

“Well, imagine it. Same old beach every day. Same old food. Same old man. I decided if he bored me in Hawaii, I’d never enjoy being married to him, especially living in this dull town.”

“At least you had that revelation before you tied the knot, again.” Bree sniffed and finally recognized a familiar acrid odor. She hadn’t just sat and enjoyed the smell of burning leaves in forever. Retirement might not be such a bad idea.

“Live and learn. Though I probably sacrificed a healthy divorce settlement.” Bree could picture Ann’s shrug. “But even that couldn’t entice me. Enough about me though—what have you and Linda been up to?” Her seductive tone was impossible to miss.

“Linda and I? Let’s see. We went to a couple of museums in Kilgore and to the syrup festival here. And we’ve bumped into each other several times at Silverado, the retirement home.” Now that Bree thought about it, those experiences had been the highlight of her visit so far.

“Sounds like a laugh a minute. So admit it. Aren’t you glad I’m back?” Ann shifted into full flirtation mode, her husky voice promising illusions she’d too rarely fulfilled. “Maybe you and I can have some real fun before you desert us for Chicago again.”

“Just what do you mean by real fun?” Bree couldn’t believe she was still attracted to Ann, but she felt a familiar quicksilver streak dart up her inner thighs, followed by the crazy idea that maybe Ann would finally publicly admit her desire for her. To make things worse, after only a few minutes, Bree was already flirting back.

Ann gave a soft laugh. “Oh, you know. Just hanging out. I have this entire house to myself now.” She sounded like a secret agent delivering confidential information. “We don’t have to worry about anybody overhearing us, especially a sneaky little sister like Linda.” Bree couldn’t believe she was listening to this stuff. “What do you say? Want to come over tomorrow night, after I’ve unpacked and recovered from my jet lag?”

Bree struggled to ignore her soaring imagination and throbbing clit. “Where’s Mr. Right going to be? Or did you give him his final walking papers?”

“Oh, he’s tired from the trip.
