Chapter 7

 

David

 

This has been a week straight from hell
, I thought to myself after finally catching a breather between meeting-after-meeting. For every fire that I put out, it seemed another one would flare up in one department or another. The only thing that kept me going was thoughts of Madelyn and her sweet scent.

I knew I had promised her that I would be in touch. I hoped she would understand my negligence in not calling her sooner. I was physically, as well as mentally, exhausted. This week was all work, home and bed, only to begin each day over again with the same monotonous routine. I barely had time to shower and grab a sandwich before my head hit the pillow every night and I feel into an exhausted slumber.

It was the week’s end before things finally got under control. Some jobs had been lost, and some of the banks departments had been downsized against my better judgment. Those decisions had been out of my hands, having been voted on and passed by the board of directors; the higher ups that sat in big cushy seats not getting their hands dirty, while others had to do their dirty work.

I shrugged my tense shoulders and raked my palm across my face to clear my thoughts. I reached for the phone and buzzed my secretary. Jennifer had been a Godsend and she deserved to leave early, since it was Friday. She had also been staying beyond normal business hours and working herself ragged, along with the rest of us.

“What can I do for you, Mr. McRay?” she asked through the intercom.

“Jennifer, you can have the rest of the day off and start your weekend early.”

“Are you sure Mr. McRay? I don’t mind staying if you need me.”

“I am sure. You have done a fine job and you deserve it. You can be sure a commendation will be put in your file and you will also have a bonus on your next paycheck.”

“Thank you so much, Mr. McRay! I hope you get rested and have a pleasant weekend.”

“Thank you and same to you,” I replied before ending the conversation.

Being vice president of a bank had it rewards. It also had its disadvantages. I knew that old man, Theodore McConnell, was watching my every move like a hawk to see if I had what it took to one day step into his shoes as President of Liberty National Bank. I already knew I was next in line for the promotion once he retired.

He was sixty five years old and still going strong with no intentions of retiring in the near future, from the looks of it. In the meantime, I would continue to grind my ass off and do an above-average job to prove my worth as VP to the bank.

My last meeting of the day proved to be fruitful, so I decided to leave a little early myself. There were no pressing matters that needed my immediate attention; none that couldn’t wait until Monday morning anyway. I packed up my briefcase and closed it with a snap before heading out the door.

I looked through the clear glass window of Annie’s Cookie Shop. The shop’s name was boldly displayed over the glass doors. Madelyn was inside wiping down the display case with her back towards the door. She had no idea that I stood outside her shop watching her. She truly was a sight to behold.

I could feel a tightening in my loins as I watch her bend at the waist, leaving her ample bottom high in the air. It had been a minute since my last sexual encounter, not from lack of opportunity, but because I was making a change with myself and how I treated women.

I pulled on the door’s handle but found it locked. I knocked on the door to gain her attention.  She stood and quickly whipped her head around in my direction. Her eyes widened in surprise before a pleasant smile spread across her beautiful face.  She strolled towards the door to unlock it and invited me in.

The building smelled of fresh paint and cleaning supplies that left a clean, fresh scent lingering in the air. “It looks great in here. I can remember passing by this place when the previous owners had it and hoped that someone would come along and reopen it.”

“It looks like your wish came true,” Madelyn said with a smile that reached her peculiar but beautiful colored eyes.

“Yes, it sure did,” I readily agreed drinking in the sight of her like the finest of wines.

“Would those flowers that you are holding in your hand happen to be for me?” she asked.

“Of course they are for you,” I said handing them over. “These are some beautiful flowers for a beautiful lady. I hope they make up for me not calling you sooner. I have had a hell of a week, but you have been on my mind the entire time,” I confessed.

She held the flowers to her nose, before speaking. “I confess that I thought you had changed your mind about me. Thank you for the flowers by the way. They are beautiful.”

“You are welcome and I could never forget you, not even if I tried.”

A blush rose to her cheeks. “Let me find a vase to put these in. Make yourself comfortable. I will be back in a jiffy.”

I watched her walk through two swinging doors that must have led to the kitchen. My desire was rising. I needed to get things under control and take things slow. Something told me that she was something special and I had no desire to mess things up before they even started.

She came back through the doors with the flowers in a pretty vase filled with water. The flowers reminded me of her, sweet and delicate. “The place really looks good,” I complimented her on a job well done. “I can’t wait to get a taste of your baking.”

“The grand opening is next Friday. You must be sure to stop in for the free samples that I will be giving away.”

“I wouldn’t miss your grand opening for the world. It will more than likely be Friday evening before I can make it by though.”

“Whenever you come by will be great,” she replied.

“The real reason that I came by is to invite you to dinner tomorrow night, if you don’t already have plans.”

“No, I have no plans whatsoever. I have hired two employees who will be helping me out a lot. That, in itself, has freed up some of my time.”

“That’s great.” I handed her my phone. “Will you put your address in, so I can pick you up?”

“I can meet you.”

“No, you can call me old fashioned, but I prefer to pick you up.”

She typed her address without any more reluctance before handing over my phone.

“Thank you, I said as my fingertips brushed with hers. I better go and let you get back to what you were doing.”

“Okay, what time should I be ready?”

“I will pick you up around seven, but dress casually, okay?”

“Casual is my comfort zone, so I have no problem with casual,” she replied.

I wasn’t going to do it, but her sweet scent was intoxicating. I stepped toe to toe with her. My six feet one inches of height loomed over her. Her head tilted up expectantly. My head bent slowly to capture her sweet lips with mine for the first time. Her lips were soft and delectable beneath mines.

My tongue thrust between her lips to separate them. My tongue entered the warmth of her mouth for a taste. I pulled her closer and reached my hand to her ponytail. I released the twist from her hair so that it fell in soft curls against her shoulders. I breathed and savored her sent that filled my nostrils.

I pulled her closer to the rigid feel of my hardening desire. She moaned against my lips, and I captured her moan with my deepening kiss. I was losing what control I had, so I decided to end the kiss. She whimpered as I released her succulent lips.

“I better go. I will pick you up tomorrow night, sweetheart. Please be sure to lock up behind me.”

I walked out not waiting for her reply. I had to put some distance between us or I would have devoured her right there on the shop’s countertops. I walked away hard as a rock and needing release in the worst way, needing the beast within me assuaged.

Chapter 8

“I hope that you like yachts,” I said to Madelyn as I ushered her onto the big boat. The Sky Line was a romantic tourist cruise yacht that I rented exclusively for the two of us. The weather seems to even cooperate. It wasn’t too cold or too hot. I had wanted to impress and do something different for our first date. I wanted it to be a date that she would remember for years to come.

“I am pleasantly surprised. No one has ever gone all out like this for me. I would have never suspected anything like this in my wildest dreams,” she replied with an appreciative tone.

“You are meant to be treated like this at all times,” I said leading her into the dining room where two waiters stood waiting to serve us our meal. I seated Madelyn at the candle lit table for two before seating myself.

One waiter immediately brought our plates to the table so we could begin enjoying our meal. The other waiter brought a bottle of Provenance Cabernet to serve with our meal of grilled rib eye, broiled lobster in a buttery sauce and a dense chocolate torte for dessert.

Low jazz music piped from the speakers in the background. The waiters disappeared letting the two of us enjoy our meal. A bell was left for us to ring if we needed anything additional.

“Everything is so delicious, David.”

“I’m glad you are enjoying the meal and I agree that it is very delicious.” I looked at her pink tinted lips and wasn’t able to get our kiss out of my head. Her sweet plump lips had plagued my dreams to the point of me having me taking a cold shower in the middle of the night.

The cold shower wasn’t enough to relieve me of my sexual desire for her without some assistance on my part. Now, with her sitting across the table from me, I could once again feel myself becoming sexually aroused. My arousal stiffened and lengthened against my khaki pants. If I stood at that very moment, there would be no concealing my hardness from her view.

Her eyes connected with mines. I reached across the table palm side up, and she readily placed her hand in mines.

“Dance with me, please.”

I didn’t have to ask her twice as we stood and she willingly came into my arms without any resistance. She was a perfect fit for my body. I felt like she was the missing piece to my puzzle. In that moment, every woman of my past fell away into the darkest recesses of my mind, including Alyssa who mothered my child.

I only had one woman on my mind and it was the woman that I held in my arms. I knew she felt the evidence of my arousal as she melted into my masculine hardness. I pulled her even closer, if that was even possible, as we moved closer to the slow, smooth jazzy beat of the music.

I bent my head to inhale her sweet scent. The rest of our meal lie on the table forgotten as we were each caught up in our mutual web of desire. I pulled back and lifted Madelyn’s chin to peer into her eyes. Her lips were shiny and wet, begging to be kissed.

My head swooped down like an eagle in flight honing in on its prey to steal a kiss from her succulent, sweet, tempting lips.  I swallowed the surprised gasp from her unsuspecting mouth. My tongue entered her mouth to duel with the sweet taste of her tongue, which tasted of wine and chocolate.

My hand slid down to the small of her back before dipping lower to her curvaceous ass and pressed her closer to my growing arousal. She whimpered as her arms tightened around my neck to hold on to the building storm of our budding desire for each other.

My heartbeat raced at an accelerated pace as her softness and scent overwhelmed my already titillated senses. I didn’t want to come across to boldly and scare her away, but she was making it impossibly hard to constrain my sexual desire. I attempted to pull away, but our lips desperately clung together of their own volition.

“We better stop,” I muttered against her pliable lips. I had found the will from some deep source to try and pull away from her sweet kisses.

“Please don’t stop,” she begged with wantonness.

“Are you sure?” I asked searching her eyes for any doubt.

“I am positive. I don’t know what it is about you, but I need you so much right now,” she admitted.

I beseeched her eyes and saw the same desire that afflicted me was mirrored in her own eyes. I knew that, once the boat docked for the night, it would be at our disposal until noon the next day, if we desired to spend the night. I made the decision to follow my heart as I took her hand in mines and led her to the cabin below.

The king-sized bed took up most of the room, with a bathroom off to the side. The bed was fully laden with rose petals, chocolates and a card expressing the Sky Line’s thankfulness for us choosing their cruise line for business.

“This room is truly beautiful,” she said in awe of its beauty.

“You are beautiful,” I said not taking in the room décor like I should. She clearly had my undivided attention. How the room looked was the last thing on my mind.

A blush spread over her cheeks. It made me wonder if her naked body would blush that way from my touches. My eyes traveled down her body and took in all of her curves. The clingy scooped neck dress was simple but sexily flattered her curves. The silky soft material was as soft as her skin.

I enclosed her waist and backed her against the bed. “Madelyn, are you sure?” I asked once again. “Once I get my first taste of you, I am warning you, there will be no turning back. Do you understand?” I asked her emphatically.

Her eyes widened momentarily before she simply nodded her head. No more words were needed. From that moment on, she would be mine. My heart rejoiced at the thought. I reached around her to release the zipper at the back of her dress. The dress slid effortlessly down her shoulders and to the floor.

I kneeled and removed each shoe from her perfectly pedicured feet. I placed a soft kiss on each beautiful, delicate foot before rising to loom over her. She stood in only her practical bra and panty set. She was even sexy as hell in cotton underwear. She was sexier than most women I knew, without even trying. She truly was a breath of fresh air.

Her arms crossed self-consciously across her ample breasts. I gently pulled her arms away and reached around to unclasp her bra in one fluid motion. Her plump C-cup breasts spilled forward like sweet, plump, ripe oranges demanding for me to taste. My head bent to suck one tasty nipple into my mouth. I laved it with my tongue until it pebbled from my ministrations. I tasted one at leisure before giving equal attention to her next breast. I feasted on her delectable breasts like candy. Her head fell forward as she gasped from pleasure.

Her moans filled the room, which added to the ambience of the slow, jazzy music filling the room through the speakers. Her sweet scent continued to wreak havoc on me internally. The beast continued to rise inside of my pants demanding release. It no longer wanted to be constrained.

I urged her to lie back on the rose scattered bed. I wasted no time in removing each piece of my clothing, not even caring where the lay. She gasped as she took in the full vitality of my body. My arousal hung full, long and heavy against my thigh bobbing up and down as if saying ‘I am ready.’

My hardness was like a magnet craving to be buried in Madelyn’s sweet treasure. My eyes never left her body, as she lie splayed across the bed nearly naked and ready. Her eyes followed my every move, as I walked stealthily like a panther towards the bed.

I slowly removed her panties before putting them to my nose to mark her scent. Her smell was just as I thought, sweet and fresh as honey dew and I was salivating at the mouth awaiting my first taste of her. I spread her legs open to my perusal. Her passion already glistened on her plump lips. I spread her legs further apart and her entire body blushed with my intent.

My tongue wasted no time swiping at her dew drops. I savored her sticky sweetness over my tongue before swallowing her essence. Her hips moved forward to greet my intimate kisses. I feasted wholeheartedly with my lips, tongue and mouth. Her moans filled the room with the sweetest sounds that I had heard in a very long time.

I slowly licked and kissed around her vulvar area before sucking her outer lips into my greedy and waiting mouth. Her clit was coated with her secretions as I flicked it back and forth with my stiff rough tongue. Her hips gyrated beneath my mouth testing my will to be gentle with her.

Her hips jerked off the bed as my tongue entered her inner walls going in and out with piston strokes. I cradled her plush ass in my hands to deepen my tongue into her well of love. The wet sounds of my feasting stirred her passion and filled the room with her sweet, pungent scent. I growled against her plump lips to control my growing passion.

I kissed my sweet pussy lips one last time before standing and reaching for my slacks. I retrieved a string of magnums from my pants pocket before removing one and placing the others aside. I wasted no time whatsoever before tearing it open and putting it on my extended organ.

Madelyn scooted further back onto the bed as she watched me with a wide-eyed look. “I haven’t been with but one man in all of my life. I don’t know how well you will fit,” she admitted looking at my arousal with doubt.

I silently growled in animalistic pleasure with the knowledge of her admittance. “I promise that I will be gentle. Do you trust me, Madelyn?”

“Yes,” she said on a sigh. “I trust you with my whole heart, David.”

Something shifted inside of me. She moved another notch into my heart; her trust in me was all that I needed to hear before my body fully covered hers. I placed my lips on hers so that she could taste her own sweetness on my lips.

I eased inside her little by little, until I was fully inside her tight snugness. It took everything in my power not to plunge into her at once. Her snug walls enveloped me tightly into her warmth.

I began to move slowly at first to find a pace that accommodated us both most pleasurably. I grunted with each gentle plunge into her heat. Her nails scraped against my back as she wrapped her thighs around my waist which caused me to penetrate her deeper than before.

Her body trembled beneath mines as her moans intensified. My breathing grew harsher and faster as I neared my release. “Come for me Maddie! Come with me baby,” I urged with a guttural tone. We were on one accord as we grinded faster with urgency as our desires neared completion.

She cried out my name with much fervor as she released her passion. Her walls convulsed around my throbbing hardness, which became my undoing. I released my load into the condom, coming harder than I thought was possible.

I fell satiated and depleted for the time being onto the bed, pulling Maddie against my side. I didn’t dare release her or she might disappear. I didn’t want to wake up and realize this was just a dream. She was my real life’s dream and I decided in that moment that she would be mines and I would never let her go.
