Addie heard the question in those words. “No one. Just you. Still. Only you.”

“That’s my good girl.” Toni licked her again. “Shall I give you a reward for being such a wickedly good girl, Lady Adelaine?”

Addie bit her lip and nodded as Toni suckled her clit, and Addie threw her head back in impossible bliss.I was wrong. I was so, sowrong to not do this sooner.There was nothing like this feeling, nothing like having a talented mouth on that bundle of nerves.

She swayed on her feet at the sensation, and Toni paused, looking up, face wet from Addie’s own body. “Lean on the wall, love. I’m just getting started.”

Then Toni pulled Addie’s skirt over her head, and she set to proving exactly why Addie hadn’t been able to come up with an excuse not to come to Cape Dove Manor. There was something surreal about the feel of Toni hidden under her skirts. Addie couldn’t grasp any part of Toni, couldn’t see her; all she could do was feel Toni’s hands, her lips, her tongue.

Third time’s a charm,Addie thought.Please don’t let her leave without a word at the end of the weekend.

That was her last rational thought. Her head back against the wall, hand clenching the chair beside her, Adelaine was lost. Nothing in her life had prepared her for being at the mercy of Toni’s attention.

Chapter 26Toni

Role-play had never really been Toni’s thing, but as she was hidden under the voluminous skirt of a woman who was begging and whimpering for more, Toni decided this was about to become her top fantasy for lonely nights at home.

Memory, not fantasy.

Under the thick fabric, Toni was grateful that she was nearly naked. It was sweltering, dark, and the scent of a woman was enough to make her wish she had a free hand to ease herself to the orgasm that was only barely out of reach already.Ambrosia.The scent and taste of a woman was as close to divine as any experience in her life, and right now, right here, withthiswoman, Toni felt like a god. Addie was saturating all of Toni’s senses, and Toni could no longer remember any reason she’d want to be anywhere but right here.

“Toni… so… right…yes.”

Toni gripped Addie’s hips as Addie found her release.Does this count as makeup sex?Toni held her steady for another moment before freeing herself from Addie’s heavy skirt. Toni was on her knees staring up at the woman who had filled far too many hours of Toni’s thoughts.

Toni wiped her chin as she sat back on her haunches and looked up at her. “Thank you.”

Addie gave her a languid smile. “I think that’s my line.”

“I enjoyed myself, Addie. Trust me on that. I would start everyday with my mouth on you if that was feasible.” Toni didn’t want to think too long about the weight that slipped from her shoulders when she’d realized that Addie hadn’t rejected her—or the truth in her own admission. It was absurd, really, but Toni consoled herself in her panic by reiterating to herself that they had become friends.Sometimes naked friends, but just friends.That was why she was off-kilter now. No one likes fighting with a friend.

Especially friends who say“really?”in that breathy, hopeful tone that Addie does when she’s surprised,Toni mocked herself.Or friends who haunt your dreams naked but listening to you tell them your every worry and panic.

Toni wasn’t about to let anyone have the kind of power over her that came from a relationship.

But if I did… it would be her.

Addie reached down and cupped Toni’s face between her hands. “Come up here. I still can’t bend well.”

Toni stood, and Addie all but fell into her embrace.

“I don’t want to get your skirt all wet.” Toni tried to pull her hips away a little.

“Oh?” Addie’s went wide.

“I enjoyed that,” Toni stressed. “A lot. If your skirt is up against me, I’ll leave a wet spot.”

Addie stepped back and looked down at Toni’s damp underwear. “Oh.”

Toni couldn’t repress the laugh that bubbled out of her. “I told you I wanted to…” Her words faded as Addie slipped her hand into Toni’s underwear.

“I can’t bend at the waist or anything, but my hands work fine.” Addie made a throaty noise when she discovered just how much Toni had enjoyed being on her knees. “I want to try that on you. You could teach me how.”

“Okay” was all Toni managed to say. Between Addie’s fingers and the image of Addie’s mouth of her, Toni was not anywhere near articulate.

“Can you move to the side and put your foot up on the chair I was holding?” Addie asked, frowning slightly. “I want more access.”

This time, Toni didn’t try to hide her groan. She did what Addie asked, watching as Addie parted her lips and sighed. The angle meant that Toni could see herself in the dressing mirror. “Addie.”
