Free Romantic Promises (Alluring Promises Series, #2) by Janice Baker Page A

then. Aubrey tapped my leg and I nodded. We’ve been doing this since our second year of college. Her tapping my leg was my signal she was going to let the guy get lucky. I watched Aubrey drink down the last of her wine and take the guy’s hand as she gave me a quick wink. I smiled at her, happy that one of us was going to have sex tonight.
    My phone rang out a text and I checked it, anxious and a bit apprehensive at the letdown I knew was going to occur. My heart skipped a beat and I couldn’t help but smile when I read the text.
    Charles: Actually, I’ve got a little down time right now. Mind if I come over?
    Mind? My God, I felt like it’s been at least a week since we’ve had sex. I thought about it a little more and realized it was a week and a half, because we started to have sex when he was on call and he received an emergency call and had to rush out.
    Me: Would love to see you right now. I’m already waiting. Impatiently .
    Charles: On my way .
    I drank down the last of my wine and hopped off my chair, hurrying to the elevator.
    In my room, I opened my lingerie drawer and began searching for my blue baby doll nightie. Charles’ favorite color is blue, so I had a pretty nice array of blue lingerie. This one, I noted last time, was his favorite. I jumped in the shower really quick before donning the nightie. I heard a knock on the door and grabbed my silk robe, tying the sash very loosely before opening the door.
    Excitement coursed through me as I opened the door, as if I were about to open my present at Christmas. No, that’s not exactly right. My panties never became damp at Christmas over a present, so this was definitely better. I tried to stop myself from beaming when I saw my fiancé. Charles stood there in a golf shirt and dark jeans, leaning against the door with a perfect dazzling smile and his brown eyes sparkled as they drank in my body. I bit my lip trying not to show too much excitement.
    He immediately slipped his hands around my waist as he stepped inside, bending down to kiss me. I opened my mouth expecting a full passionate kiss. Instead, he chuckled and pecked my open mouth. Awkward kiss. I had hoped for so much more. He shook his head as he stepped inside the door further. His kiss made me feel like an old familiar friend.
    “I missed you,” he said as he smiled at me. He then gave me a small Eskimo kiss.
    I smiled back at him and replied, “I missed you so much too. Lunch was too short today.” I gave him a small pout.
    “I’ll make it up to you,” He said with a grin. He turned my body and gave me a slight nudge so we would walk to my room. He closed the door behind him as I turned around and slowly began to untie my sash. I carefully pulled my robe off my shoulders and then let it fall slowly down my arms before finally cascading onto the floor. A slow sexy smile on Charles’ face gave me the reaction I was hoping for as I watched his eyes light up while they lingered on my breasts.
    He took a step towards me and I took a step back, slow and sexy with a coy smile. I sat on the bed as he stepped closer and I began to unbuckle his belt. His hands sifted through my hair and one dropped down to my shoulder making soft circles on my skin. As I undid his jeans and pulled them down, I grazed my hand over his hard cock through his boxers.
    “Mmm,” he moaned as he slipped his shirt over his head. Charles always tried to keep in shape, although his stomach wasn’t as taut as it used to be in college, he still had an amazing body. I ran my hand over his hard length and decided to try to feel him. I nervously reached my hand through the slit of his boxers, wanting to graze my lips over his velvety smooth shaft. He leaned down and slowly pushed me onto my back, kissing me softly.
    I knew what he was doing. I admit I’m not the best at giving head. Couple that with the way he’s made fun of the “slushing” sounds I’ve made, he usually stops me from even attempting. Each time he stops
