ended up adding far more items to her mental list of foods that
could come in handy in sex play. That jar of marshmallow crème had been
particularly tempting. They hadn’t tried that before. A good old standby like
chocolate sauce never failed, but maybe they’d be in the mood for something
new. She wanted to be prepared for any eventuality, not wanting anything to
hold them back.
    But she’d
lingered much longer in the grocery store than she’d intended, earning more
than one curious glance from other shoppers in the meantime. No doubt they were
wondering why she was filling her cart with so much junk food with a salacious
smile and a flush in her cheeks. Wouldn’t they love to know?
    She’d planned to
be home much earlier, and she almost expected Bobby to be waiting on her
doorstep when she got there. She wasn’t sure whether she was disappointed or
not when he wasn’t. Abandoning the grocery bags on the kitchen counter, she
raced into the bedroom. The bed had been freshly made that morning. She usually
didn’t bother for her own behalf, but falling into a crisp bed and rumpling it
together was much better than collapsing into used, tangled sheets.
    A smile toying
on her lips, Nina quickly changed into the outfit she’d purchased new weeks ago
in preparation for this very night. It was nothing fancy, but she had a feeling
Bobby would approve. She couldn’t wait to see his reaction.
    The silk robe
was cut thigh-high, letting the cool air wash over her exposed legs. The fabric
was light as gossamer. It felt like she was wearing nothing at all. For a
moment she closed her eyes and basked in the sensation, holding out her arms
and swaying slightly. She imagined she was outside, completely nude. The gentle
slide of the silk against her body was no more than the soft caress of a gentle
breeze over her bare breasts and hips, the air kissing her nipples. She didn’t
know if anyone could see her. Maybe there was someone watching her right now,
as she stood naked in a rolling green field. There was no way of telling. That
was what made it so exciting.
    When she felt
her body begin to respond to the fantasy, she opened her eyes and blinked away
the vision. If she wasn’t careful she was going to get herself so worked up
she’d never make it until Bobby’s arrival. A few more seconds and she’d be
ready to get down to business and take care of herself.
    Rushing out into
the living room, she dimmed the lights and lit a few candles. It was more to
give herself something to do than to create atmosphere. She’d learned long ago
that she and Bobby didn’t need to waste time setting a mood. Romantic lighting
and sexy music were forgotten as soon as they saw each other, obliterated in
the wake of the raw animal attraction between them.
    As she lifted
the burning end of the match to the final taper, a firm knock sounded on the
front door.
    Nina froze for a
second, her pulse skyrocketing. She’d know that knock anywhere.
    He was here.
    Her heart
pounding in her chest, she blew out the match and dropped it in a cup of water
nearby, then flew across the room. Her hand poised on the knob, she took a deep
breath to calm herself before coolly opening the door.
    As always, she
waited for some sense of letdown, for that instantaneous, electric attraction
not to appear, proving the passion was finally dying down.
    It didn’t
happen.
    Bobby loomed
over her in the doorway. As soon as his eyes fell on her, his lips shifted into
that easy smile she loved. Her heart responded by skipping a beat, then thumped
even faster, the pressure heavy in her chest. Raw heat shot through her body,
racing into her fingers and toes, leaving her tingling all over. The feeling of
excitement inside her was so potent she barely managed to stand still. She
clung to the door for support, her fingers practically wearing grooves into the
wood.
    “Hey, stranger,”
she said, sounding as breathless as she felt.
    “Hey, yourself.”
    He was standing
mere inches
