“Do you think they’re happy?” I ask as we watch the twins sleep. For the first time in forever, I was home to tuck our kids into bed.

“I think so. Today was a happy day.”

Marissa gently pulls the door closed and walks toward the kitchen. Nervously, I follow her. There’s so much to say, and I’m not really sure where to start.

“Would you like some wine?” she asks. As she reaches for the glasses, I can’t ignore the way her blouse exposes the tiny sliver of skin along her lower back. Such an innocent image, but desire hits me like a lightning bolt as I watch my wife pour each of us a glass.

I love her so much.

I want her so much.

She has no idea.

My fault.

“Marissa,” I whisper, stepping closer. “Thank you for today.”

“Thank you. It was a wonderful evening. The kids needed it.”

“We needed it. I’ve missed you so much, Marissa.”

She nods and slowly sips her wine. She doesn’t trust it. She doesn’t trust me.

My fault.

“Do you miss me?” I ask anxiously, knowing very well she could say no.

She must hear the fear in my voice, because she places her glass on the counter and turns toward me.

“I miss you every single day.”

Like magnets, our bodies drift toward each other until we’re barely touching.

“I’ve been a terrible husband. That ends today.”

Her eyes close as my fingertips drift along her cheek.

“Please believe me when I tell you that I have loved you every single second of our life together. You have owned me, heart and soul, since the night we met. That night was the most amazing night of my life, and not just because we made love for the first time. But because I wished for you, and there you were. Like you were sent from heaven just for me.”

My hands find her waist. Pulling her close, I gently place my lips close to her ear.

“We’ve been together thousands of times since then, and every time has been incredible. But I will never forget that night. The way you looked. The way you felt. The way you whimpered my name.”

Marissa gasps when I lift her onto the kitchen counter. Her eyes are frantic with need as I push her skirt up her thighs, letting my fingers trail across her creamy skin. I reach for the buttons of her blouse as she loosens my tie.

“I love this tie,” she says breathlessly.

“I know you do. Why do you think I wear it so much?”

She reaches for the zipper of my slacks and pushes them down my legs. Desperate with need, I pull her close to the edge of the counter and step between her legs as she winds them around my waist. We both groan as our mouths collide. These aren’t soft, sweet kisses. These are frantic, urgent, and burning . . .so much like our kisses from that very first night.

I know I should take my wife to bed, but the desire to consume her is just too great, and with a shuddering groan, our bodies join.
