Free Tingle All the Way by MacKenzie McKade

same?
    “Good.” Hector sprang into the air, his
wings fluttering. “Let’s get started.” He swarmed around her head. “How are you
going to wear your hair? Up, I think. That way you can wear me as a hairpin.”
    “ Hectorrrrr… ” Kayla stretched out
his name in warning. “You are not going tonight.”
    * * * * *
    Barry knocked on Kayla’s front door, half
expecting her not to answer. As they’d parted at O’Malley’s, he’d thought he’d
heard something strange in her voice, seen a shift in her demeanor. If he
didn’t know better, he would say she was pulling away. Tugging restlessly on
the neck of his sweater, he pressed the doorbell.
    “Come in,” she yelled.
    Letting himself in, he noted her apartment
was larger than most of the apartments he’d been in around this area. From
where he stood in the entryway he could see her library, or maybe it was her
office on one side. Wall-to-floor shelves lined three walls, and the fourth had
an exquisite oak desk and a chair that looked almost like a throne. Everything on
the top of the polished wood was neat and orderly, much the way how he assumed
she lived her life.
    On the other side was a living room that
flowed into the dining room. The furniture was simple, but by no means
inexpensive. It added an unassuming elegance to the home. Barry was studying
her entertainment center, discovering she liked jazz when he heard the click of
her heels on the marble. Casually, he turned. His breath caught.
    He had never seen a more arresting woman.
    The off-the-shoulder red dress caressed her
body as if it were a second skin. It wasn’t too short or too long, revealing
just enough of her lengthy legs to make a man want to follow them all the way
up. The spiked heels she wore put her at eye level but he didn’t care. The
shiny shoes enhanced the shape of her calves and they were sexy as hell. As his
hungry gaze roamed higher, he paused at the plunge of the bodice. There again,
it was barely low enough to tease and tantalize, an enticement to keep a man
interested all night long. Then he noticed her hair swept up in a waterfall of
curls that emphasized her slender, luxurious neck—a neck he knew every inch of.
    “Pearls.” He grinned. “Just the right
touch.” From the steamy look in her eyes, she must have been recalling the same
memory of their little adventure this afternoon. “You are stunning.”
    “Thank you. You clean up pretty good
yourself.” A white fox stole was draped over her bent arm. A small clutch purse
dangled at her wrist. Running a palm down the front of her gown, she appeared
uneasy. “Do you think this dress is appropriate? I mean— I have a nice suit I
can wear.”
    “Don’t you dare change.” He very much
enjoyed how she looked. His cock twitched in agreement. “You’re driving me
crazy in that dress. I can’t wait to peel it off you, discover whether you’re
wearing panties or a thong.”
    “But your parents?”
    “You’ll turn my father’s head and Mom will
love the pearls.” He closed the distance between them. “You don’t have a thing
to worry about, especially with my parents. They’ll love you.” Her skin was
silky smooth beneath his palms as he ran them up her bare arms.
    “I would just feel more confident in my
suit.”
    He leaned in and kissed her softly. “And
here I thought you were more comfortable naked and in my arms.” That earned him
a laugh.
    “Now that you mention it, I am pretty
comfortable with you. It’s just I’ve never worn anything like this before.”
    That’s when he realized that she wore her
suits like armor. She was an attorney but it wasn’t only who she was.
Didn’t she realize that she was a beautiful, desirable woman as well, and more
importantly that it was okay?
    “Today appears to be a day of firsts for a
lot of things.” He winked in an effort to return them to the comfortable
intimacy they shared earlier.
    She blushed prettily.
    “Baby, let me share this experience with
you
