When Panthea arrived at JFK, she saw a man holding a place card with her name written in small block letters. “Panthea Daniels, that’s me,” she said as she read the card a nice-looking Asian man was holding.

“Great. Follow me,” he instructed.

Panthea slipped into the backseat of the black town car and tried to relax in the deep bucket seats. She was more than excited to get Marcus’s call to join him. Although he had only been gone for the day, Panthea missed him terribly and planned to show Marcus why he should never leave town without her again.

As the driver made the trip in to Manhattan, Panthea gazed out the window. She always loved coming to New York, there was so many things to do, and the food was usually to die for. Panthea hoped that she would have a chance to get in some shopping while she was in the city. After all, what trip to New York City would be complete without hitting the stores? She planned to go to Bebe’s on 5th Avenue and Prada Broadway and then Le Corset to pick up some sexy lingerie for Marcus to peel off her.

When the limo pulled up in front of their hotel, Panthea really felt special. The driver got out and opened the door, but to Panthea’s surprise, Marcus got in. “I’m so glad you’re here, baby,” Marcus announced.

Panthea threw her arms around Marcus and kissed him like she hadn’t seen him in months.

“I am so glad to be here,” she said between kisses. “You don’t know how much I’ve missed you, Marcus.”

She loved the way she felt when she was with him. Marcus Douglas knew how to treat a lady and for that, she was grateful. Being with Marcus made her wonder just how she had survived so long, so many years without him. But then Panthea realized; she’d never known real love until she’d started loving him. Like now, sitting in the back of the limo, hugged up like they had a right to be together. Panthea couldn’t remember a time when she felt better.

The limo turned down 45th street and pulled up in front of Frankie and Johnnie’s Steak House. The driver rushed to open the door for his passengers. “Enjoy your evening. Please call when you’re ready,” he said to Marcus who slipped him a tip.

“This place was voted the number one steak house in the city. And it’s close to the theatre district,” Marcus said as he held the door open for Panthea to walk into the elegant two-story townhouse that once belonged to the legendary actor John Barrymore. Panthea didn’t have a problem accepting the lady-like treatment she felt all women deserved.

The restaurant’s burgundy and mustard color scheme provided a soothing backdrop for a romantic evening. Panthea couldn’t decide if she wanted to sit on the first or second floor. When the hostess led them upstairs to a romantic little table near the fireplace, she decided that’s exactly where she needed to be.
