_________________________

I safely delivered Lizzie back to her apartment building. Before I let her out of the cab, I made her promise to take the prenatal vitamins and meet me Saturday at two. After she disappeared into the building with the little white plastic sack clutched in her hand, I finally headed back home.

I’d planned on going back into the office. It had been much too early to shut down for the day when I’d left, and I had a big research project to finish. But it was almost 8:00. Normally, it wouldn’t have been this dark on a summer night, but the dreary weather had made nightfall come early today. The research would have to wait until tomorrow. I didn’t have anything left in me tonight.

It was still pouring rain when the cab pulled up in front of my building. About 30 feet stood between me and the front door. Even if I hadn’t already been soaking wet, I would have been drenched by the time I made it. I looked down at my still damp suit. Lizzie had correctly identified it as designer even if she’d gotten the label wrong. It was a rumpled mess. At this point, there was no real need to make a run for it.

As I approached the building, a shadow to the right of the door shifted, leaving me uneasy. I glanced in that direction, but it was too dark and rainy for me to accurately process my surroundings. I reconsidered my earlier decision and stepped up my pace. Just as I reached the door, a familiar voice uttered, “Allie Cat.” It was more of a growl than a greeting, but I knew the voice and liked it. I paused with my hand on the door handle just as a hand reached out and grabbed my arm. I was yanked over into the black abyss where I’d seen the movement, and Adam’s unique musky smell swirled around me, drugging me into submission.

I’d been a bundle of emotions all evening, and it had left me too raw to speak. Luckily, that wasn’t what he was looking for either. An arm wrapped around my waist and pulled me flush against him. His thumb drew a line across my cheek as the rain continued to pelt down on us. His mouth met mine, and I took control. I hadn’t even realized that this was what I needed, but I was so hungry for him.

I pressed harder against his body, wanting to feel every inch of him from his hard chest all the way down to the hips that were pressing into my waist. As his mouth matched my fervor, I was overcome with all the feelings that I’d been fighting all evening with Lizzie. Finally, I fell apart. I cried silently, my tears mixing with the rain. Only the salty drops streaming down my face would give me away, but I made sure that he was sufficiently distracted.

His hands grabbed my wet hair and pulled my head back so that my face was pointed toward the sky that continued to pour down.
