Chapter 5

I don’t think I’d slept as well since Andre had died. I never did much like sleeping alone, and I hadn’t had anyone in my bed since he’d died.

And Deck fit the bill perfectly, once he allowed me to sleep, that was.

A blush sluiced over me as I awoke remembering just how ravenous he had been last night. As much as I loved him, I don’t think Andre ever exhibited quite such a hunger as Deck had for me.

He took me in ways I hadn’t tried since before my marriage, reminding me of the things I had missed in my more sexually staid marriage.

And his dominance certainly did carry into the bedroom, although in much the same manner I imagined he would be as a disciplinarian. Not ranty or even loud, but with quiet confidence in what he was doing that only made me feel safer to be in his hands. And his mouth. And riding his fingers. And being ridden, as he’d mentioned about my sports car—hard and fast, but with a light hand on the rein.

I had barely opened my eyes when the bedroom door opened, and he appeared with a tray, on which he had my favorite indulgent breakfast—coffee, a Diet Coke over ice with a straw, and two enormous, honey dipped doughnuts from my favorite regional bakery, Sully’s, which was not too far down the road from me, unfortunately. But not this morning. This was my weekend of sin and indulgence, and I was going to eat both of them without an ounce of guilt.

Tuesday, there would be hell to pay. But today, I was going to dance with the Devil to every delicious tune he called.

I sat up as he came towards me, and he put the tray over my legs, joining me on his side of the bed.

“Good morning, lovely,” he murmured, kissing me gently.

“Good morning, handsome,” I answered, blushing, but kissing him back and turning my attention to the food he’d brought. “So, this is mine. Where’s yours?”

He looked taken aback, although a smile played about his lips at the same time. “I figured we could share,” he said, one big paw advancing boldly towards my plate.

If I’d’ve had a fork, I would have pretended—well, I hope so, anyway—to stab him with it, but he hadn’t brought one—smart man—so instead I reached out and slapped his hand smartly.

“Hey! You’re supposed to share.”

“Not these,” I said, taking the plate and presenting him with my back, ready to defend them to the death, if need be, against all comers. Even ones who made love to me so deliciously last night.

I heard him sigh, then he exited the bedroom to appear with his own two stack of the sweet glazed confections.

Only then—when his own hunger would be sated without delving into my stash, did I turn back around to him and let him put his plate on the tray next to mine.

“That’s not very hospitable, you know.”

“I must not have eaten these things around you before.
