“This is Opal.” I glance at her. “Opal, this is Ryan.”
She keeps her hand firmly in mine but goes to shake his with the other.
He obliges with a smile. “It’s very nice to meet you.”
Impressed by not only his manners but his wardrobe choice, I point that out, “I see you got a new suit.”
He tugs on the lapels of the dark blue suit jacket. “I sure did, and it was all because of you. When I told the tailor William sent me, he sold me this beauty for a steal.”
It’s a great suit that’s tailored to fit. “Good.”
“I got a haircut.” He points at the top of his head. “I also bought a nail brush.”
Chuckling, I drop my gaze to his hands. “You did good, Ryan.”
“It’s all because of you.” He adjusts the sleeve of his jacket. “You told me what I needed to do to get my shit together. You changed my life, Mr. Knight.”
Opal tugs on my hand to lure my gaze to her. She doesn’t say a word, but her smile tells me she’s glad we ran into this guy.
“I need to get back to work,” Ryan explains. “It was good to see you.”
I shake his hand again. “Take care.”
“You too,” he says before he turns his attention to Opal. “It was good to meet you, Mrs. Knight.”
Before either of us can correct him, he’s headed up the sidewalk with a determined stride that speaks of his newfound confidence.
“Mrs. Knight,” Opal whispers. “It’s cute he thought we were married.”
“Cute?” I question with a lift of my brow. “It’s foreshadowing.”
Her lips curve into a gentle smile. “Time will tell.”
I don’t need time to tell me anything. I don’t know when it will happen, but at some point, I’ll be this woman’s husband. I know that deep in my soul.
“He’s one of the men you helped,” she assumes.
“I overheard him and his friend one morning talking about all the women they’d fucked.” I chuckle while shaking my head. “Technically, it was all the women they imagined fucking.”
“Imagined?”
“I’m not sure who they were trying to impress, but it wasn’t working.” I scrub a hand over the back of my neck. “Every person in their vicinity overheard it, so I went over and explained the merits of keeping intimate details private. I also may have suggested a few minor things Ryan could do to improve his chances out in the dating world.”
She laughs. “You’re fighting the good fight, Mr. Knight.”
“I try.” I cock a brow. “Are you ready to see my home?”
Nodding, she bounces up to her tiptoes to kiss my cheek softly. “I like that you see the potential in everyone.”
“I like that you like me.”
“I do,” she admits in barely more than a whisper. “I like you enough I might want to spend a little extra time on a tour of your bedroom.”
I squeeze her hand and set out in a sprint, pulling her with me as she laughs. “I’m all for that. Let’s go.”

Opal
“The rest of me could use a few kisses,” I whine. “Please.”
William shakes his head, but his lips don’t leave the spot they’ve been focused on for the past five minutes. He’s been kissing and licking the sensitive skin between my breasts.
Occasionally one of his thumbs will graze over my rock hard nipples sending a pulse through me straight to my pussy. It’s happening again now.
My hips lift off the bed. It’s as if my desire for him is a beacon calling to his body to satisfy mine.
“Fuck me,” I whimper.
A chuckle rumbles through him, causing the muscles in his bare back to move. I stare at that, marveling at how magnificent he looks with or without clothing.
“I’m enjoying this,” he says in a low growl. “I want you good and ready when I fuck you.”
Laughter flows easily from me. “I’m ready, William. See for yourself.”
The invitation to touch my pussy isn’t needed, but he finally stops the mission he’s on to look at me. Our eyes lock as I feel his hand glide down my stomach toward the spot I’m aching.
His tongue darts out to coat his lower lip in wetness as he coats his fingers in my desire. “It’s going to feel so fucking good to be inside of you.”
“You can feel it now.”
Smiling, he shifts his position so he can drop his forehead to mine before he kisses me. It’s a slow build to an aggressive kiss that speaks to his need for me.
“I’ll get a condom,” he whispers. “You get ready to be fucked hard.”
“Wait,” I say, surprising even myself. “Let me suck you for a second first.”
He bites the corner of his bottom lip. “If I feel those lips on my dick, my load will end up all over your face.”
“And?” I tease. “Would that be a bad thing?”
“It would be a mind-blowing thing,” he groans. “At least for me.”
