Chapter 13
Darren
It had been two months since Courtney returned home to Darren, yet their intimacy level remained stagnant. Two weeks ago she had been cleared by her OBGYN to have sex, but she remained at arms length. They slept in the same bed but she no longer curled up against him at night. Instead she positioned herself close to the opposite edge of the mattress. As far away from him as possible. It broke his heart but he refused to push.
Darren waited in the living room with Jack, Carl, and a couple other men for Courtney to make her way downstairs. A charity event downtown filled their agenda for a few hours that evening. While they chatted about business, they heard the bedroom door close. Darren stepped into the hallway to meet her and gasped when she made her appearance.
A vision in a midnight blue form fitting, floor length evening gown, she stole his breath. A V-neck top showed off her fantastic cleavage and a scoop back that fell to her tailbone exposed her delicious fair skin. A slit up to her left thigh and nude Jimmy Choo heels elongated her toned legs. She belonged on a red carpet in Hollywood.
“Court,” Darren whispered in awe. “You’re stunning.”
Her hair pulled back in a loose up-do, wisps framed her perfect features. Her natural color, that returned a few weeks ago, said her body was well on its way to healing. A pair of large diamond stud earrings Darren had bought her a couple of years ago as a birthday gift twinkled off the lighting.
“Thank you,” she said. “I bought the dress yesterday. I didn’t have anything new to wear. Are you sure you like it?” she asked, unsure of herself.
He stiffened. Darren hadn’t been told she'd gone out shopping the day before. He turned to Jack and Carl and raised a censorious eyebrow to let them know they would be questioned later, as well as his displeasure over not being informed of his wife's outing. One thing he'd made perfectly clear to his men was that if Court left the house for any reason, he was to be notified. That wasn't negotiable. No more chances would be taken with his wife. She may have thought he was overprotective prior to the incident but that was nothing compared to what she was in for now.
“It’s beautiful, sweetheart,” he said. He made a mental note to casually ask about her shopping trip later.
Approaching while she descended the stairs, he held out his hand to help her down the final three steps. Jack handed Courtney’s shawl to Darren, who wrapped it around her slim shoulders then kissed her. Since she returned home, he was unable to control himself and needed to have constant physical contact with her.
“Are you ready?” he asked.
She nodded.
“Then let’s go enjoy ourselves.”
