    “Oh…he went back home. Didn’t follow the rest of us to Oz. We said we’d keep in touch but…”
    Another notch marked on Lily’s imaginary bedpost .
    Hesitantly, he offered, “Lily…be careful, okay?”
    She giggled. “What? Me? I’m always careful. I’m just having so much fun!” Her voice was bright, but Adam couldn’t help the concern rising within him. “Hang on, Ad… What? Now? Okay, I’ll just be a minute.” She spoke to someone in the room with her. “Look Adders, I have to go. I’ll call in a few days to see if you’ve heard anything. Bye!”
    Before Adam could respond, the line went dead. A sense of unease niggled at his gut. He knew she was out there to experience life and to have fun, but she was taking it to the extreme. It seemed there was a different man at each stop off point on her travels. He just wanted to know she was okay, but he got the feeling that even if she wasn’t she wouldn’t tell him.
    Half an hour later, there was a knock at the front door. Max was going out to his girlfriend’s straight from work and so he knew that once Eve arrived they would have the place to themselves. He opened the front door and there she was. He inhaled sharply. She never failed to leave him breathless. She wore a long red coat and underneath a black and grey satin dress, which clung to her curves in the most delicious way. He felt the blood rush southwards just at the mere sight of her standing there. He scooped her up in his arms, kicking the door closed behind him.
    “God, I’ve missed you,” he whispered as he nuzzled her neck.
    “Adam, I saw you yesterday.”
    “Yes but that was only a brief meeting. I haven’t seen you -seen you in almost a week.” He kissed her deeply, sneaking his tongue into her mouth.
    She pulled away briefly and said, “You mean you haven’t seen me naked in almost a week.”
    “Hmmm, that too.” He nibbled on her bottom lip.
    She groaned. “Now you come to mention it I have missed this,” she breathed as his lips moved to her neck. She slid her hands up his arms and into his hair as his lips brushed hers once again. Pulling back she gazed into his eyes. “Hmmm, I’ll take my coat off and then we can continue this.”
    He pulled away and helped her off with her coat. After hanging it in the hallway, he returned to find her reclining on the sofa, her shoes kicked off to the side. He immediately went to her and slid along her body, smoothing his hands over the curve of her hip and over her breast. Her breath hitched as he teased a nipple through the fabric of her satin dress. His lips found hers once again, and she opened to allow his tongue access. Their kisses became deeper and he could feel her heart rate increase against his chest as he slid his hand down…down. His palm caressed the silky skin of her thigh and slipped around to cup her bottom.
    “Eve…I want to make love to you…right here on the sofa…right now.” He gazed into her vivid blue eyes and could see his own need mirrored there. She grabbed his hair and pulled him down to take his mouth with her own. He couldn’t get enough of her. Her taste, her smell, her body, and the noises she made when he pleasured her. She was simply intoxicating. He slipped one hand around to the front of her panties to cup her mound as he propped himself up on the sofa with the other. She closed her eyes and bit her lip. He loved that look too. He slid the panties down her legs and deftly unfastened the tie that held her wrap-around dress closed around her beautiful body. Moving the fabric aside so she was almost bared to him he devoured her first with his eyes and then he worshipped the junction of her thighs with his mouth, teasing her with his tongue.
    Eve’s chest heaved as she watched him. Her gaze was filled with a passion that matched his own.
    She reached and stroked his face. “Adam…I need to feel you.” He crawled up her body once again and lowered his head to pull
