Risking Fate by Jennifer Foor

    His bottom lip circled my nipple again. When he spoke , I could feel his hot breath against it. “I know you’re lying. In fact, I know exactly what to do to make you beg.”
    I rolled my eyes and focused on those dirty socks. My face curled up and I shook my head. “In your dreams , Mr. Mitchell.”
    He used his chin to make my nipple even harder. “Mmm, I love how hard they get. I bet you want it in my mouth.”
    “I bet you’re wrong.” Oh God, you are so right…
    “I bet you want me right now. In fact, I can tell you are trying so hard to fight it.”
    I closed my eyes for a second and looked down at him. “I have a headache. I think I need some water.” Without any warning, I scooted myself out of bed and walked out of t he bedroom. I was so hot and bothered that I stopped once I got into the kitchen to catch my breath. I grabbed a bottle of water and took my time walking back into the room.
    Sure enough, Ty was laying there with his arms behind his back. “I call bullshit!”
    I stood at the foot of the bed and put my hands on my hips. “This ain’t a game of cards.”
    “It’s definitely a game. Are you going to climb up here and straddle me or do I have to come and get you?” He never moved his position. I wanted to smack him, but I knew he would like it, and so would I.
    “You’re the one beggin’. I am fine just goin’ to sleep right now.” I am such a liar. I wanted to pounce right on him, belly and all.
    His disposition never changed. “Goodnight, Baby.” Before I climbed into bed he had closed his eyes.
    On one hand, I wanted him so badly that I wanted to scream, but on the other, I knew he would hold it against me and feel like he had won. Ty liked to be in control and so did I. To protect my own ego, I pulled the covers over my body and tried my best to fall asleep.
    A good ten minutes went by in a very quiet house. I was sure that Ty had fa llen asleep, so I rolled over and nestled myself close to him. As soon as my hands to uched his warm chest, I felt him grabbing my hand. He guided it down and sat it right on top of his hard penis.
    I giggled and heard him let out a little cackle. “You suck!”
    He pulled my hand up to his mouth and kissed my wedding ring. “No I don’t, but you do it better than anyone on the planet, Baby.”
    I smacked him on the chest. “Sometimes you really piss me off.”
    “That’s only because our makeup sex is the best.” He pulled me close to his body and positioned my hand over his chest. “But the sex isn’t at all why I love you so much. Your trust and friendship is the most important. Get some sleep, Baby. We can make love tomorrow and every other day for the rest of our lives. I know you’re tired and have to work in the morning.”
    As much as I wanted to make love, Ty was right. I needed to get some sleep. I started working part time in the morning, but it was still getting hard to stand for even an hour at a time.
    The next morning was as hectic as ever. Ty refused to wake me up on time and although he and Bella were at the door waiting, I still had to get myself ready. I ran around like a chicken with my head cut off looking for something to wear, while trying to do something professional looking to my hair. I worked in a salon so having bad hair was a definite no no.
    My worries were relieved when we pulled up to the Salon five minutes early. I leaned over and kissed my sexy husband before heading inside. Ty and Bella usually stopped by for doughnuts before he dropped her off at school and went into the shop.
    I got my station all ready to start working and grabbed a bottle of water for me to drink . Amy was getting the register together when the door bell rang. Ty came walking in with a cup in one hand and a bag in the other.
    He handed me the hot drink. “Decaf coffee with extra cream and one sugar for my beautiful wife.” He opened the bag and let me peek inside. “Two chocolate éclairs for my growing boys.” He leaned
