a couple weeks, or it could be a couple months. It all depends on how long the operation drags out.”
    Stacie wrapped her arms around the top of her knees and laid her head against them. “I don’t want you to go.”
    Laura reached over and pulled Stacie down on top of her. “Oh, sweetheart. I don’t want you to be sad.” Laura ran her fingers through the long red curls flowing down Stacie’s back. “I’ll come home every couple of weeks for a night or two, if I can manage the time. I promise.”
    “Is it dangerous?” Stacie managed to ask as Laura began trailing kisses along the side of her neck.
      “You know—”
    “I know you can’t talk about your cases,” Stacie interrupted. “I just want to know if you’ll be in any danger. You know how I tend to worry.”
    “Yes, it could be dangerous,” Laura answered honestly.
    Stacie’s body tensed. She held Laura at arm’s length to look her directly in the eyes.
    “Sweetheart, I'll be there in a support position only.” Laura squeezed her arms tight around Stacie’s waist. “The real danger will be with Rheyna.”
    Stacie rolled over and leaned on her elbow. “Rheyna’s on this assignment, too?”
    “Yes, and I’m sorry honey, but I can’t give you any more details.”
    “I hate this part of your job.”
    “I know you do and I hate this part myself.”
    “Can you at least tell me where you’ll be?”
    “I’ll be in California.”
    “You tell Rheyna I said to be careful.”
    “I will. Now, come over here,” Laura said, pulling Stacie down beside her. “I might not get to see you for awhile,” she said, and then her mouth hungrily claimed Stacie’s soft lips. Laura slowly made her way down to Stacie’s breast. Stacie shivered as Laura’s tongue made circling motions around her nipple before consuming it in her mouth.
    “Don’t think … think this makes up for you leaving,” Stacie managed to say, her breath catching in her throat.
    “No, but it’s a good start,” she whispered against Stacie’s skin. Laura slowly made her way down her lover’s body. God , how I love the smell, the taste of this woman , she thought as she kissed the inside of Stacie’s thigh. She rubbed her cheek over the small tuft of hair, savoring the scent. Stacie moaned as Laura’s tongue gently licked along the sides of her clitoris.
    Stacie gripped the sheets with both hands. “You’re slowly killing me, you know?”
    “Am I?” Laura moaned as she explored the soft wetness now surrounding her fingers. Stacie’s hips began to move against her fingers with slow, deliberate thrusts.
    “Oh, God,” Stacey groaned as Laura’s soft, hot mouth paralyzed her. Without thought, her legs spread wider. Laura could feel Stacie growing harder with each tantalizing lick. She tightened her arms around Stacie’s legs and drank in her lover’s sweetness. Stacie reached down and ran her fingers through Laura’s hair, holding her close as she began to climax, her back arching, her body shaking to the core.
    Stacie fell back on the bed breathless, her chest heaving up and down until finally she pushed Laura away. “No more, baby, no more.”
    Laura laid her head against Stacie’s wet belly and tried to calm her own uneven heartbeat. Like an aftershock, she felt Stacie’s hips raise slightly, thrust forward and tighten before finally relaxing. She clamped her own legs together in an attempt to quiet the overwhelming ache settling in her groin.
    After a few minutes, Stacie sat up and leaned forward. She reached down and grabbed the top of Laura’s t-shirt. With one fluid motion, she pulled it over Laura’s head and tossed it on the floor. “Jesus, Laura, I’m thinking you should go away more often.”
    Laura’s voice was husky with desire. “I wouldn’t go that far.”
    “If it’s okay with you, I’d like to reciprocate.” Stacie didn’t wait for an answer and pulled Laura up to straddle her face.
    “I’m not sure you need to touch—” A guttural
