“No, the rule was we had to treat it like a real affair. If you were really having an
affair, you’d be busted right about now.”
“True.”
He pulled me to him in an affectionate embrace. “We had a good run, didn’t we?”
“We did… To be honest, in a way I’m glad the game is over,” I said.
“You know in some ways I am too. The wardrobe changes were killing me.”
“I’m sure. That was a nice touch, by the way. But sometimes Alejandro made me
sad.”
“Why, mamita?”
“He was so romantic and considerate. He never made fun of me. He was patient.
He never had to cancel plans because he was too busy. Made me wonder why you can’t
be that guy all the time.”
Roberto released me and thought for a minute before replying. “Those things were
easier when I played the role. Alejandro didn’t have work pressures, he didn’t have

money worries, he didn’t have a wife and family to take care of. He existed only to
make you happy. Does that make sense?”
“Yeah, I suppose so.”
“But guess what?”
“What?”
“I’ve got the next two weeks off. We’re between projects and I cleared it with the
boss. I’m all yours for a while.”
I cupped his face in my hands and planted an elated kiss on his lips. “You’re the
best, honey. Danny will be thrilled.”
“I did learn some things from Ale, I do ignore you too much. I do get so caught up
in work that I forget what’s important.”
He settled in next to me on the couch, squeezing our bodies together in the narrow
space.
“Hey, I have question for you,” I said. “Why was Alejandro a better dance partner
than you are?”
“Honestly, Sandi, you don’t believe me, but you don’t let me lead, you fight me. But
you weren’t like that with him. It’s funny, sometimes I was jealous about how soft you
were around him.”
“You know, you’re right. I noticed that I didn’t mind dropping my defenses with
him. I guess he taught me a few lessons too.”
“You’ve really blossomed lately, mami.”
“Hey, since Ale made us both better versions of ourselves, maybe he should still
put in an appearance around here every now and then.”
Roberto wrapped his arms around me and kissed the top of my head. “I think
you’re right, mi amor. He should…and I promise, from now on he will.”
Our bodies still intertwined, I basked in the warmth of his torso against mine, in
our own home, wearing our own true identities.

“Now,” I wiggled my pelvis against his growing erection, “where were we?”
He responded by sliding on top of me, his lips on mine. A mischievous grin
interrupted the kiss.
“I think I owe you some hot-shower monkey-love,” he said.
I giggled. “That’s right. You do.”
Taking me by the hand, Roberto pulled me to my feet and we made our way to the
shower, kissing our way through the house. I tugged at his shirt and trousers in a
heated rush but he caught my hands to slow me down. Positioning me in front of the
mirror, he slid my skirt down my legs and brushed my hair from my shoulders. With
his lips on my skin, he lowered himself to his knees, running his mouth from my neck
to the small of my back. I watched my reflection, my cheeks taking on a pink glow of
arousal that spread to my chest. My heartbeat thundered in the hollow of my throat,
echoing the pulsing between my thighs. He shed his shirt and pressed his warm skin
against my bare body, sliding his way to standing again. We stared at each other in the
mirror for a moment.
“You know I think you’re gorgeous,” he whispered. “I always have.”
I closed my eyes against the prickle of tears. “Thank you.”
He turned me to face him. Cupping his face in my hands, I moved in for kiss, my
lips parted, my tongue playing with his.
He reached the faucet without breaking away from me and set the shower to a
steamy downpour. I helped him out of his pants, taking time to study his body. His [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
