He tapped into his com unit and nodded.“They will be delivered here when Hemma requests them.I notified her as well.”

“Oh.I am sorry.I should have thought of it.”

“Keska, the first time we were together, you lunged at me and took me to the ground in seconds.Your current coherence and restraint are the result of maturity.”

“No, I just know how fast I can get your clothes off.”She smiled.“And how fast you can.”

He laughed.

She had her bag and nodded.“So, to the soundproofed zone?”

He nodded.“Lead the way.”

She inhaled and took her go bag to the rear stairs.She walked down to the main floor and then to the basement.The heavily fortified door beckoned, and she keyed it open with a code before looking to Sorooth.“Biometrics?”

He nodded, and she coded him into the system.A few moments later, they were inside, and she was checking the plumbing while he made the bed.Once they connected, they were going to be tangled for a very long time.

When everything was set, she returned to the main room and kicked off her shoes.Sorooth was unbuttoning his shirt when she reached for the zip on the dress.He walked over to her and smiled.“Let me.”

Facing her, he reached behind, slowly lowered the zip, and then pulled the fabric forward and down.His breathing hitched, and she smiled as he leaned in for a kiss.

“Keska, I have missed you with everything in me.”

“Sorooth, I am glad you are here.”She slid her hands up his chest as her bra went and her panties hit the floor.

He lifted her, and she wrapped her legs around his waist.“So am I.”

Three days later, Kessie, Hemma, and Ekbert were sitting around the table when the couple came in, leaning against each other and looking like they had fought a shipwreck for days.

Hemma got a platter out of the oven, and Keska grinned.“My favourite.”

Five pounds of barbecue of various origins were waiting.

Keska croaked.“How did you know?”

Kessie pointed to a water glass.“It stopped wiggling.”

Hemma smiled calmly.“It’s a good indicator.”

Ekbert laughed.“I am going out.Kessie, did you want that swimming lesson?”

“Yes, please.”She walked around and hugged her parents.“So, do you think boy or girl?”

Keska lifted a weak arm and wrapped it around Kessie.“At this point, all I am thinking about is shredded pork.”

Her daughter looked up at her and then to the housekeeper.“Okay.Hemma, when can we tell them about everything that happened?”

Hemma covered her eyes.“After they are back to themselves, so give them a few hours.They are going to be crashing on the couch today.Catching up with things.”

Kessie grinned, hugged her dad again, and ran outside with Ekbert.

Hemma looked at the two actives, who were staring at her accusingly.“Everyone is fine.There was some light property damage, but Salat is taking that on his driving, and Kessie made a friend.Baola is coming over to play this afternoon.We did go to Daycross on Thursday.I know where you live.So, Kessie had a great day with Lii and Baola.”

Keska groaned.“What day is today?”

“Saturday morning.If you want to go to the family barbecue, they will send someone after lunch.It’s seven in the morning right now.Kessie gets up early.”
