Forbidden Lust

“I do.”
I pressed my mouth to hers. Lourde opened her soft lips and wrapped her hands around the nape of my neck. Her wet and warm tongue traced my lips. The glow of fireworks erupted inside of me.
The buzzer rang, interrupting our moment of pure bliss.
“Are you expecting someone?” she asked, arching an eyebrow and hopping off my lap.
“Hell, no.” I walked over and held down the buzzer. “Yes.”
“Mr. Black, I’m sorry to disturb you, sir, but I have Detective Summers here with his partner, Detective Davis. They say it’s urgent.”
“What the fuck? Now?”
“Afraid so, sir.”
“All right, send them up.”
“Is everything okay?”
“I have no idea, but it can’t be good. It's after midnight, and detectives are on their way up here.”
“Should I make myself scarce?” she asked.
Fuck, she had a point. She’d be recognized instantly, but I didn't care. I'd made up my mind, and I wanted Lourde, all of her. My chips were all in.
I held out my hand. “I want you beside me, Lourde, that’s if you're willing to show the world you're mine.”
“I’ve only ever been yours, Barrett,” she said, taking her hand in mine.
THE END FOR NOW.
