“Can I help it? If I wasn’t born this way, it definitely was beaten into me from the day I received my first personal servant.” She glanced at her wife. “Right after my parents’ divorce.”

“I see.”

“I don’t want to control your life. Well, not more than I already have.” At least she could admit that, too. “I don’t want a limp sack of bones and addled brains. I want a woman I consider my equal. You’re more than capable, even if you don’t believe it.”

“How can I believe it? I’ve seen some of the women in your circles.” Just as educated and experienced as her. Beautiful, too.

“I’m not interested in any of them. I never have been, other than superficially.”

“So you admit you’ve been with some of them.”

“Of course I have been. Who do you think was in my initial dating pool? Let alone the one approved by my father?” Alicia’s face must have been so disgusted, for Danica quickly changed subjects. “I didn’t click with any of them. They didn’t have what I needed, besides sex. That gets old quickly. Once I was bored with someone, I moved on.”

“So I figured. Sounds like you had a lot of one-night stands.”

“I would say most of my so-called dating history was one-night stands.”

Was. Just the way she spoke sometimes gave Alicia chills. There hadn’t been a day yet when Danica was anything but committed to her and this marriage they found themselves in.

“Anyway, tell me what you want from me. As your wife.” In case Alicia had forgotten what Danica’s personality was like, she said, “If it’s someone beautiful, good in bed, filthy rich, and fit to spoil you like her reigning empress, then don’t worry. Those are all passive abilities of mine. I don’t even have to think about them.”

Alicia played with the little bow in the middle of Danica’s bra.Do you know how much I want to start making love to you, Danica?Probably. She had a sixth sense for that shit.“You’re funny.”

“Hmph. No one’s ever called me funny before.”

“Because they don’t know you like I do. They haven’t seen this playful side of you.”

“Ah, playful. There’s another word I’ve never been called before.”

“To be fair, I never would have guessed you could be like this when we first met. You were all smoldering demands.”

“Gets me my way, time and again.”

Alicia left a tiny kiss on her chest. “You know what I want?” she whispered. “I want a wife who will always protect and take care of me, and I want to make her feel appreciated in return.”

Her grin was a better aphrodisiac than most of her words. “I think we’re already well on the road there.”

Alicia grinned back at her. “I want you to keep teaching me new things. I want to explore everything there is to explore with you.”

“There are a few things I’ve been thinking about.”

“Remember when you made me use those Ben-Wa Balls for a day? That was hot.”

“Hmm. When Imadeyou?”

“I liked it because it was something you wanted, and I was happy to oblige. You think I didn’t get something out of it, too?”

“I’ll say. You never come too early, now do you?”

“Only when you tell me to.”

“Fuck, Alicia,” Danica muttered, hands touching every exposed part of her. “That’s what I need right now. I need to fuck you.”

Alicia’s body readily responded with tingles and a burning desire to grind against her. “Maybe I need to be fucked, too.”

“Ever since you walked out here wearing this robe, I’ve thought of nothing but making you come.”

“On your tongue or hand?”
