  “What are you doing?” Ronnie said.

  “Getting ready to kiss you.”

  “Oh. Is that right?”

  “Yes, it is.”

  Ronnie set her glass down as well. Lana leaned into her and kissed her firmly. Ronnie draped her arm over Lana’s shoulders and pulled her closer. Lana opened her mouth and Ronnie’s tongue was inside it, teasing her, urging her passion onward. Ronnie broke the kiss and pulled away.

  “What’s wrong?” Lana said.

  “Nothing. I just don’t want to get carried away.”

  “Why?”

  “Lana, I’d hate to do something you’re going to regret.”

  “Please, Ronnie. I’m a big girl. I won’t regret anything.”

  “Are you sure? God, I hope you’re sure.”

  “I’m positive. Now, kiss me again.”

  Ronnie kissed her, full on the mouth. As they continued to kiss, Lana eased back onto her back. Ronnie climbed on top of her. They continued to kiss and, once again, Ronnie broke it and sat up.

  “What now?”

  “Lana, I have far too much respect for you than to take you on a couch.”

  “Then take me to bed, Ronnie. Please.”

  “Are you sure?”

  She searched Lana’s eyes. Lana was nervous. That was true. But she knew what she wanted.

  “I’m positive. But I have to warn you. I’m not very experienced, so I hope you won’t be disappointed.”

  “There’s no way you could disappoint me, baby. No way in hell.”

  Ronnie stood and offered her hand to Lana. They walked down the hall to Ronnie’s bedroom. Ronnie pulled Lana to her and kissed her again, this time running her hands up and down her sides.

  “You’re driving me crazy,” Lana said. “I need you so bad.”

  “Patience, my dear.”

  “I don’t want to be patient. I want you to take me.”

  Ronnie pulled Lana’s golf shirt up over her head. She admired her briefly before unhooking her bra. Lana gasped as Ronnie caught her breasts when they came loose. Ronnie massaged them before she took Lana’s nipples between her fingers and twisted and tugged on them. Lana threw her head back and groaned. Ronnie leaned forward and kissed and sucked up Lana’s neck before she claimed her mouth again.

  Lana was breathing heavily. She was already so aroused. She couldn’t imagine what else Ronnie could do to her. She was afraid she might come just from Ronnie’s fingers on her nipples.

  Ronnie finally let go of her nipples and unbuttoned and unzipped her shorts. Lana quickly stepped out of them and then her underwear. She was naked for Ronnie, and while she felt vulnerable, she couldn’t imagine anyplace she’d rather be.

  She climbed up onto the bed and watched Ronnie quickly undress. When Ronnie was on the bed with her, she opened her arms and welcomed her on top of her. Ronnie’s skin was so soft as Lana ran her hands up and down her muscular back. She felt Ronnie’s thigh against her center and moaned. She ground into it, feeding her need.

  Ronnie rolled off Lana and kissed her again while she skimmed her hand over Lana’s curves. She slid her hand down to her hip and back to her breast where she continued to tease and please her nipples.

  Then she kissed down Lana until she came to where her legs met. She rested a cheek on her inner thigh.

  “My God, you’re beautiful,” she said.

  “Please. Touch me.”

  “Gladly.”

  Ronnie slid her fingers inside, and Lana trembled at the touch. She moved her fingers in and out until Lana was writhing on the bed. Lana felt her mouth, her warm breath, on her throbbing clit. Ronnie sucked and licked it like a pro, and Lana felt her insides coalesce in a ball of energy. She focused on nothing but what Ronnie was doing, and she felt the energy release, sending white heat throughout her body as she rode climax after climax.

  She was only barely aware of Ronnie moving up next to her. She opened her eyes and saw Ronnie propped up on an elbow looking at her.

  “You okay?” Ronnie said.

  “Never better.”

  It was her turn to love on Ronnie. She was nervous but excited. She wanted to make her feel all the things she’d made her feel. She kissed Ronnie and tasted herself on her tongue. It was a heady feeling. She kissed down Ronnie’s chest and took a nipple in her mouth. She sucked on it and played her tongue over the hardened tip.

  “Oh yeah. That feels so good,” Ronnie said.

  Lana smiled to herself, pleased that so far at least, she’d made Ronnie feel good. She played with the nipple a little while longer until Ronnie’s breath was coming in gasps. Lana kissed lower on her until she was between Ronnie’s legs. She took it all in, not even sure where to start. She licked all over before sucking her lips and dipping her tongue as far as it would go inside her.

  Ronnie was gyrating on the bed, pressing herself into Lana’s mouth. Lana sucked her way to Ronnie’s hard clit and took it between her lips. She ran her tongue all over it. Ronnie’s hand was on her head, holding her in place. She needn’t have bothered. There was no place else Lana wanted to be at that moment. She continued sucking and licking until Ronnie pressed hard into her and her whole body froze, then collapsed on the bed.

  Ronnie stroked Lana’s hair, and Lana was proud of herself. She’d made Ronnie come and that bolstered her confidence tenfold.

  “You were amazing, baby,” Ronnie said.

  Lana kissed up her body and curled against her.

  “Thank you. So were you.”

  “Now, let’s get some sleep.”

  “Sounds great.”

  Ronnie wrapped her arms around Lana, and Lana had never felt more safe.

  Chapter Seven

  Ronnie woke at seven the next morning as usual. She felt like the night before must have been a dream. A wonderful dream that symbolized new beginnings. Until she felt Lana stir next to her. Could she do this? Was she really ready to put aside her womanizing ways? She kissed Lana on the shoulder.

  “Good morning, beautiful.”

  “Mm. Good morning.”

  Looking at Lana’s naked body lying there got Ronnie hot and bothered all over again. She kissed her shoulder again, then rolled her on to her back so she could help herself to Lana’s beautiful, firm breasts. She bent and sucked one nipple while she tugged and twisted the other.

  “You’re playing with fire, Ronnie Mannis.”

  “Well, as long as I put out the fire, we’ll be okay, right?”

  “Right.”

  Ronnie slid her hand down between Lana’s legs to find her wet and ready for her. She slid her fingers inside and felt Lana quiver in there. She moved her fingers in and out until she felt her shivering more intensely. Ronnie slid her fingers out and pressed them into Lana’s slick clit, rubbing slowly at first, but then picking up speed. Lana finally called her name and closed her legs, trapping her fingers. Ronnie smiled. She didn’t need those fingers for anything else at the moment.

  Lana finally opened her legs and Ronnie repeated what she’d just done, bringing Lana to another orgasm. Ronnie kissed Lana. Hard on the mouth. Lana opened her mouth and welcomed Ronnie in. But only for a moment.

  “It’s my turn now,” she said.

  “You don’t have to. I’m okay.”

  “No way.” Lana reached between Ronnie’s legs. “You’re drenched. No way I’m leaving you this way.”

  She teased Ronnie by dragging her fingers all over down there. She finally found her way to her clit, which she rubbed just as Ronnie had done for her. Ronnie felt her whole world burst into a million tiny pieces as the most powerful orgasm she’d ever had washed over her body.

  “Now see?” Lana said. “Isn’t that better?”

  “Mm. Much.”

  Ronnie wrapped her arms around Lana and they dozed for a few minutes. When she woke up, Lana was gone. She sat up, panicked.

  “Baby?”

  “I’m here.” Lana came walking down the hall.

  “Oh, thank God. I thought you�
�d left.”

  “No way, Jose. No chance of that. I’m afraid you’re stuck with me now.”

  Ronnie smiled.

  “That works for me. So where were you and why are you dressed?”

  “I got dressed because I always feel weird walking around the house naked. And I made coffee, which should be ready now if you want to get out of bed.”

  “Aw. Do I have to?”

  “Only if you want coffee and a day at the beach.”

  “Okay. Okay. I’m coming.”

  “Not without me you won’t.”

  “Very funny,” Ronnie said. She put on her board shorts and muscle shirt and followed Lana to the kitchen.

  “I don’t have much here for breakfast,” Ronnie said. “Would you mind pancakes again?”

  “Not at all.”

  They sipped their coffee and kissed in the kitchen.

  “You’re not helping me get breakfast made,” Ronnie said.

  “Sorry. I mean, not really, but okay.”

  Lana sat at the kitchen table and Ronnie set about making breakfast. After they’d eaten, they did the dishes together and packed the ice chest for the beach. Ronnie was bummed that her time with Lana was drawing to an end but tried to maintain hope that this wasn’t just a beach fling for Lana. Ronnie really wanted more. She believed she could cool her womanizing ways now that she and Lana were a thing.

  They spent another fun-filled day at the beach, and Ronnie was sad when Lana said it was time to pack up and head back to Houston.

  “When will I see you again?” Ronnie said.

  “How about dinner tonight? I’ll pack an overnight bag.”

  “Are you serious?” Ronnie couldn’t stop smiling.

  “Yes. If you want to.”

  “That would be wonderful.”

  “And I have a shoot with you tomorrow.”

  “You do? I haven’t checked my schedule.”

  “Well, I checked mine,” Lana said. “And I know.”

  “Great.”

  They said their good-byes and Lana promised to call as soon as she had her overnight bag packed so she could go to Ronnie’s.

  Ronnie got home, showered, then set about picking up her house. She wasn’t a slob, per se, but she was a bachelor. Fortunately, she’d paid to have her house deep cleaned before her disastrous dinner party, so she only had to pick up a little.

  She had just sat down and turned on the TV when her phone rang. She checked before she answered it. Lana.

  “Hey there,” she said.

  “Hi. Are you ready for me to come over?”

  “Totally.”

  Ronnie gave Lana her address and waited. It seemed like it took forever, but Lana was finally knocking at her door. Ronnie opened the door and stood to the side to let Lana in. She took the overnight bag down the hall to her room, then came back and kissed Lana.

  “I’ve missed you,” she said.

  Lana laughed.

  “I’ve missed you, too. Now, are you ready for dinner? Because I’m starving.”

  “Sure. What are you in the mood for?”

  “I’d like another steak, to be honest.”

  “I know just the place. Let’s go.”

  They enjoyed their dinner together, and on the drive home, Lana held her hand the whole way. Ronnie knew she was right where she belonged. She ran her thumb over Lana’s hand and felt Lana squeeze her tighter.

  “So, you’re sure about staying at my place?” Ronnie said.

  “Positive. That is, unless you don’t want me.”

  “Oh no, baby. I want you. Don’t worry about that. I’m just checking your level of comfort.”

  “It was my idea, wasn’t it?”

  “Yeah. I suppose it was.”

  “So, relax. I’m fine. Better than fine.”

  “Okay.”

  Ronnie wanted to believe her. It just felt too good to be real. She didn’t want to do anything to scare Lana off. But if Lana said she was fine, then Ronnie had to believe her.

  They pulled into her driveway and got out of the truck. Ronnie unlocked her front door and stood back to let Lana in first. She again admired the sway of her curvy hips as she walked past her. When she’d closed the door behind them, she pulled Lana into her arms.

  “I’ve been wanting to do this for so long.”

  “It hasn’t been that long since you did it last.” Lana laughed.

  “It feels like forever.”

  “You’re so sweet.”

  Ronnie closed the distance between them and kissed Lana full on the mouth. Lana responded by letting her tongue meander into Ronnie’s mouth. Ronnie moaned at the sensation and kissed her more passionately. She finally pulled away and came up for air.

  “Dear God, woman,” she said. “I need you. Now.”

  “Then take me, Ronnie. I’m ready for you.”

  They kissed again, and Ronnie took her hand and led her down the hall to her bedroom. Ronnie made short order of Lana’s clothes, undressing her quickly and efficiently. When she was naked, Ronnie ran her hands over her satiny smooth skin and cupped her ass, pulling her against her.

  “Wait a minute,” Lana said. “You’re not naked yet. Hurry, please. I want to see and feel you.”

  Never one to disappoint, Ronnie quickly stripped and pulled Lana to her again. She ground her pelvis into her and kissed her mouth, her cheek, her earlobe, and her neck.

  “I need you now,” Lana said. She climbed up on the bed and extended her hand to Ronnie who took it and climbed up next to her. She ran her hand over Lana’s body and brought it up to cup her breast. She lowered her mouth and sucked on her nipple. Lana ran her hands through Ronnie’s hair and moaned, letting Ronnie know she was on the right path.

  She continued to suckle as she slipped her hand between Lana’s legs, finding her wet and ready for her.

  “You feel so good,” Ronnie said.

  “So do you. Please don’t tease me. I need you.”

  Ronnie slid her fingers inside Lana and thrust them deep. She felt Lana trembling already and knew it wouldn’t take long. She continued to move in and out and then brushed her thumb over Lana’s clit. Lana clamped down on Ronnie and cried out as Ronnie didn’t slow down and took her to several more orgasms.

  “Better?” Ronnie said.

  “Much.” Lana smiled.

  “Good.”

  “And now it’s my turn.”

  Ronnie was happy to let Lana have her. Making love to Lana got her so worked up she needed release. Lana kissed down her body until she came to where her legs met. She kissed her lovingly, slowly licking all over. When Ronnie was sure she’d combust on her own, Lana kissed her clit, sucking it and licking all over it until Ronnie cried out as her body convulsed time and time again.

  “We should get some sleep now,” Ronnie said. “We have to be fresh for our shoot tomorrow.”

  When Lana woke the next morning, she was alone. It took her a moment to remember where she was. Ronnie’s house. But where was Ronnie? She pulled on a pair of shorts and a T-shirt and went looking for her. She followed the scent of coffee until she found Ronnie at the kitchen table.

  “I thought you’d left without me,” Lana said.

  Ronnie got up and kissed her.

  “No way. We do things together now, remember?”

  “Can I get a cup of coffee?”

  “Sure.”

  Lana sat at the table and gratefully took the cup Ronnie handed her.

  “This is what I need,” she said. “How do you look so fresh when you first wake up?”

  “Don’t kid yourself, baby. You look amazing, too.”

  “That’s very sweet of you, but I don’t feel very amazing.”

  “The coffee will help.”

  “I hope so.”

  “So, baby, I wanted to talk to you.”

  “Uh-oh. You’re tired of me already?”

  “Oh no. Nothing like that. I just want you to know that just because we’re together now, doesn’t mean I’m going to
go easy on you at a shoot. I’m still going to push you, maybe even harder now, to be the best you can be.”

  “And I appreciate that. You know I like perfection.”

  “Okay. Just don’t get mad at me.”

  “I never have.”

  “Great.”

  Ronnie finished her coffee and went to take a shower. Lana sat sipping her coffee trying to wake up. She was starting to feel human. She was glad she hadn’t looked in the mirror. She was scared of how she must look. But she’d feel good after one more cup, a shower, and some makeup.

  She finished her second cup and was heading down the hall to the bathroom, when Ronnie stepped out of the shower looking absolutely delectable with a towel wrapped around her waist.

  “Are you sure we don’t have time to go back to bed?” Lana said.

  Ronnie laughed.

  “Sorry, sweetheart. It’s a workday.”

  “Bummer.” Lana pouted, and Ronnie took her lower lip between her lips and sucked on it.

  “Now get in the shower.”

  Lana took a long shower and dried herself off in the surprisingly fluffy towels Ronnie offered her. She looked around for something, anything resembling a dressing table, but found none. She wiped off the mirror in the bathroom and set about applying her makeup.

  When she was finished, Ronnie grabbed her keys and handed Lana’s to her.

  “We’ve got to get going,” she said.

  “Okay. I’m ready.”

  Ronnie kissed her.

  “She you there.”

  Lana pulled her back for a longer kiss.

  “Yes, you will.”

  When they got to the studio, Ronnie unlocked the door and let them in. She made more coffee and they sat having another cup as the hair and makeup artists showed up. When Lana had finished her coffee, she disappeared into the dressing room.

  She got dressed, and when her makeup was being applied, she heard voices coming from the kitchen area. She recognized Ronnie’s, but not the other. The conversation didn’t sound friendly and she couldn’t wait to get out there to see what was going on.

  She walked out to the kitchen to see Ronnie talking to a tall woman with short brown hair. She looked like a model.

  “It’s not that I don’t appreciate it,” Ronnie was saying. “It’s just that I have a coffee maker here. You should save your money.”
