  “I…I…I wasn’t expecting this. How much did this cost?”

  Joey took out the bracelet and put it on Zoe’s wrist. “A one-way trip to New York.” He replied with a twinkle in his eyes. “I’m not going to rush you or force you to make a decision you’re not quite ready for. I just wanted to put it out there.”

  “Put what out there?” Zoe asked.

  “Z, I love you. There, I said it. I love you. And I want to be with you forever.” He admitted, the pressure built up inside his heart for so long finally exploded and he felt better, “I don’t know if marriage is in the cards but I can’t see myself with anyone else but you.”

  Zoe played with the dangling bracelet and looked up at the night sky, the stars matching the sparkling diamonds on her wrist. “It’s complicated, J.”

  “Well, uncomplicate it for me, then.” Joey replied.

  Zoe let out a breath. “I want to move to New York and eventually I’m going to. But it has to be on my terms and my terms are six months from now. I have a lot to get done before then and…”

  “Such as what?” Joey interrupted.

  Joey’s question caught Zoe off-guard a little and she swallowed her pride. “Well, I need to meet with some other people in the industry and make connections. I also need to find a place with a studio I can fully concentrate on my work. I have to figure out where the fabric stores are and get to know New York. I can’t just drop everything and move out there now, honey. I need some time to get my bearings together.” Zoe explained, “I also need to give Kieran enough time to interview and find a suitable replacement for me.”

  Joey leaned against the brick wall. “Six months, huh?”

  “Six months.” Zoe promised. “After that, I’m all yours.”

  It was already November and Zoe wouldn’t be in New York until the earliest of May, if she had it her way. He was going to speed up the process. “Six months it is.”

  ****

  This can’t be real life.

  Zoe woke up to the smell of frying bacon. She wiped her eyes and stretched out in bed, soon realizing how sore she was. Her legs felt like they’ve been through a marathon. Her back felt a little tight. A smile curved her lips as she remembered the previous night’s activities.

  After their romantic trip to the observatory, the pair went back to her place to make love.

  Zoe decided to have a bit of a twist to their romance. She moved all of the furniture out of the way in the living room and dressed up as Sheba. If that wasn’t enough, she had an extra surprise for her lover.

  “If you want to get in my panties, you need to get into my panties.” Zoe smiled.

  Joey eyeballed the sparkly blue thong before him. He had purchased underwear for his conquests before but never had a woman buy him any – particularly women’s thong panties.

  He knew Zoe wasn’t the typical woman he had dealt with before. She was independent, smart with her money, and could throw down in the kitchen with the same effort and passion as she could suck him to sleep. He considered himself freaky and loved introducing his girls to some ridiculous freaky things. Christening them, he once boasted to his brothers and friends.

  Every good girl had a freak inside her, waiting to come out and play.

  Zoe, however, was a different ball park. No, Zoe wasn’t even in the same league as the others. She was a completely different sport and Joey was ready to swing whatever she tossed at him. “Okay, I have some rules with this…”

  Joey ended up being game, after all, and Zoe was pretty certain if she pulled back the sheets on her body, her entire nether regions would be covered in blue glitter.

  That was the moment Zoe truly understood the power of the pussy. Good pussy would

  make the manliest of men get down on all fours and beg like a newborn puppy.

  “Buongiorno, mi regina…” Joey brought in a tray full of breakfast food. “I hope my girl has her appetite.”

  “After last night, I’m starving.” Zoe sat up in bed and Joey placed the tray over her waist.

  She looked at the tray and was impressed by what she saw: a tall glass of orange juice, scrambled eggs, two pieces of bacon, wheat toast, followed by a small cup of fruit with cottage cheese on the side. She never had a man cater to her needs both in and out of the bedroom and Zoe felt like a spoiled princess. “This is so much, J.”

  “I’ll help you, don’t worry,” he smiled. “Anything for my woman.”

  His woman. She loved the way he said it – authoritative and declaration. He wanted

  everyone to know who she belonged to and what she meant to him. She could quickly get used to that.

  “What’s on the agenda today?” Zoe chewed on a piece of bacon.

  “Whatever you want to do, regina.” Joey replied. “Whatever you want to do.”

  Zoe thought about something she wanted to do but wondered if it was the right time – she wanted Joey to meet her family. They were getting serious and she thought it was time for her family to know the guy who has been capturing her attention since she was pretty sure London had long shared the news. “Do you think you’d want to meet my parents tomorrow?”

  Joey’s eyebrows slightly rose at the thought of meeting the parents. He’s met several parents of his paramours before and he always made it clear that he was just a close friend of the woman he was dating and nothing more.

  Now the tables were turned.

  Zoe talked about how prominent and respected her parents were, though they were a bit of the 70’s flower children still. They instilled morals and values within their children, not to mention a hard work ethic that Zoe seemed to inherit. Her bringing him home to meet the parents was very much a big deal and it wasn’t something Joey slept on.

  “Um, sure…” Joey thought about his clothing options. He packed a pair of slacks and a dress shirt just in case they were going to go out to a nice restaurant. He was glad he thought ahead. “I would love to.”

  “You don’t have to,” Zoe picked up on the hesitation in Joey’s voice, “I understand if it might be too soon.”

  “No, it’s not that. It’s just…hmm…” Joey paused for a brief moment. “Whenever a girl brought me home to the parents, it signaled she felt about me a certain way.”

  “Well, I do feel a certain way about you.” Zoe smiled at him. “I love you.”

  “Ti amo, mi regina. ” Joey replied back. “Are you still hungry?”

  “I am,” Zoe’s tongue traced her lips, “but I’m hungry for something else now.”

  Joey only had one question. “Where do you want it?”

  “Well, we haven’t christened the shower yet,” Zoe mentioned. “I think it’s time we

  should.”

  “Let’s go.”

  “So it’s safe to say that Zoe’s mystery man is back in town,” A Fits and Giggles employee, Karen, began as she cleaned up the morning snack area.

  “What makes you think he’s from out of town?” Another employee, Margaret, asked.

  “She always takes a week off,” Karen mentioned. “I’m sure if he was local, she wouldn’t be taking so much time off.”

  “I wonder what he does that he can afford to take a week off as well.” Karen pondered.

  “He can’t be no 9-to-5 type of dude. He must have some bank.”

  “Well, if he’s a baller, she needs to hook me with one of his friends,” Margaret quipped,

  “I’m tired of these broke-ass busters I deal with.”

  “Well, she’s been traveling to New York on behalf of Kieran and Tiana,” another

  employee, Liz, mentioned, “so I’m sure that has something to do with it.”

  “She has a job I don’t envy,” Margaret shook her head, “working here and doing that

  fashion line? I don’t know when the girl has time to sleep.”

  “I’m not paying her to sleep,” Kieran’s voice echoed throughout the area. “Ciao, signore. ”

  “Good Morning, Kieran,” the ladies
said in unison.

  He nodded and smiled at them. “What’s on the agenda today?”

  “Same ol’, same ol’.” Liz shrugged. “Zoe did leave her sketches for you to look at on your desk. Other than that, nothing going on but the rent.”

  “Good to know.” Kieran sipped his coffee and made his way to the office. “I’ll talk with you ladies later.”

  The ladies stood together and admired their boss. “I wonder if his brothers are still players?” Margaret wondered aloud.

  “If they’re anything like Kieran, they can play me anytime they want.” Liz nodded.

  “I’m sure they’re not that bad,” Karen added, “I think they just need to find the right girl to settle down with. I know one of them is the head of Madre’s. Maybe he’s just too busy running the family business to settle down?”

  “That might be it. You know how those executives are – all work and no play.” Margaret mentioned.

  “It only takes the right girl to make them play just as hard outside the boardroom and into the bedroom,” Liz chimed in. “Maybe that’s what Zoe has – she got herself an executive man.”

  ****

  It was moments like this Zoe wished she installed a railing or some type of bar inside her shower. She needed to use it to hold steady.

  Lord have mercy.

  She squeezed her eyes tightly shut as Joey’s tongue pleasured her. One hand had a death grip on the back of his head while her other hand searched for something to keep steady. He said he wanted to clean her body and she naively thought he meant just the loofah and soap. Oh, he did that as well but once he was finished, that’s when the real cleaning began.

  “Shh, regina…” he put a finger to his lips as he carefully kneeled down on the tub floor.

  Zoe felt her legs spread apart and Joey gripped the backs of her thighs tight, pulling her to his face. “I’m about to fall, J!” She cried.

  “I got you, I got you,” he promised, “just trust me.”

  Zoe opened her legs wider to accommodate him and watched him with curiosity. She felt her folds spread apart with one finger while another one entered inside her core. The sudden invasion caught her by surprise and a small yelp came out. “Shhh…” Joey purred. “…I got you.”

  Zoe relaxed her body and let out a deep breath, closing her eyes and leaning against the shower wall. She had one leg placed on Joey’s shoulder while the other one remained spread.

  She felt his warm mouth on her clit, his tongue circling the swollen nub as it bounced. He then dragged his tongue back and forth from her hole to her clit in a rapid-fire motion, causing one leg to buckle.

  Take me higher.

  Joey concentrated on her clit, alternating between sucking and licking, while he inserted a finger inside her core. Zoe shook her head from side to side, trying to remain steady but enjoying the pleasure. Her soft moans became guttural and her breathing, shallow.

  “Oh fuck!” She squealed as the orgasm washed over her and her entire being convulsed, as if she was transported to another time and place. She felt her body shift a little as Joey helped her stand back up. Her heavy-lidden eyes slowly opened and she breezily smiled at him. “Where did you learn how to do that?”

  “That’s a question you don’t ask,” he winked. “You just enjoy it.”

  “I most certainly did.” She smiled and stroked his cock. “I owe you the favor.”

  “When we’re finally out of the shower,” Joey interrupted and helped his girlfriend wash up, “I don’t want to interrupt your mouth just to get out of the shower and put on a condom.”

  “Fair enough,” Zoe smiled.

  ****

  Amazing. Simply amazing.

  Kieran flipped through Zoe’s sketches and became more impressed by the pages. She was beyond talented and there wasn’t a doubt that Tiana would agree. He saw some pages had unfinished sketches and thought it would’ve been a great idea to drop off the sketches in case Zoe became inspired and wanted to finish them. He decided to drop them off at her home.

  Kieran got into his SUV and drove to Zoe’s place. Once he arrived, he grabbed the

  sketches and made a beeline to her condo. He knocked on the door and skimmed through the sketches as he waited for her. He was very impressed. Colorful designs filled the pages and she scribbled notes as to what fabric she wanted to use and when the design should come out. A smile spread on Kieran’s face. His confidence in choosing Zoe to be the designer Tyson’s Heart grew exponentially and he couldn’t have been prouder of that decision.

  He heard the door unlocked and slowly open. “Hey Zoe, I stopped by to drop off your…”

  Kieran stopped cold in his speech upon the sight before him. He bit the inside of his cheek while his lips puckered. “…your sketches.”

  Before Kieran was a soaking wet Joey, with one of Zoe’s plush pink bath towels wrapped around his waist. “Hey…bro.” He nervously smiled.

  “I came by to drop off Zoe’s sketches since she left them at the office and she hasn’t been in all week.” Kieran felt the anger build inside him. “She said she wasn’t going out of town so I thought I would just drop them off.”

  “I’ll make sure she gets them,” Joey reached for the sketches and was met with resistance when Kieran didn’t let them go.

  “Tomorrow,” Kieran’s eyes had an icy glare to them, “we’re talking.”

  “I got plans, bro,” Joey replied.

  “You will make time.” Kieran emphasized.

  Twenty-Two

  “You look like you just saw a ghost,” Zoe commented as Joey walked back to her

  bedroom.

  Joey held up his girlfriend’s sketches. “Kieran dropped off your sketches just now.”

  Zoe leaned back on the bed, supported by her hands. “Let me guess he saw you? Shit…”

  “It is what it is,” Joey set the sketches aside and joined Zoe on the bed. “He’s not too happy that I’m here and I’m sure he could put two and two together as to why I’m here and why you’ve been missing work.”

  Zoe sat up and wrapped an arm around Joey’s waist. “I don’t want to cause any problems between you and Kieran, J. If us being together is going to cause issues between you two…”

  “It won’t.” Joey declared. “I promise you it won’t. It’s just…my reputation amongst my brothers, especially when it comes to women, isn’t necessarily a good one. I know where Kieran is coming from and I respect his opinion. But he also needs to stay out of my business and let things be.”

  “He thinks you’re going to play me?” Zoe finally asked.

  “In a nutshell,” Joey confirmed.

  “Well…?”

  “Well, what?”

  “Are you?”

  Joey turned to Zoe with an incredulous look on his face. “Are you serious right now?”

  “It’s an honest question, J.” Zoe leisurely crossed her legs. “I wouldn’t have asked if I didn’t have a reason to.”

  Joey turned towards her. “Okay, I almost got locked jaw by going down on you and you’re still going to pursue that question?”

  “Giving me a good licking doesn’t equate to you being a faithful partner,” Zoe explained,

  “it just means you know how to eat the box.”

  “I’m not going to play you, Zo. Is that better?” Joey was frustrated he had to defend his current actions to his girlfriend when he thought she should’ve picked it up long before he had to explain.

  “Are you mad?”

  “Irritated.” He huffed.

  Zoe took off her towel and kneeled in front of her boyfriend. She spread his legs wide and played with his flaccid cock until it hardened within her hands. “Maybe I can make it up to you.”

  Seeing a woman play with his cock was one of the most beautiful things Joey had ever seen. It was more special that it was a woman he was in love with. “I’m starting to wonder, Ms.

  Mitchell,” Joey’s lips curved up into a large smile, “you did that intentionally.”

  “Shhh…” she palmed his dick until it stood straight up for attention and service. She lightly kissed the underside of his cock before she gave it a long lick and suckled on the mushroom tip. “…are you going to give me a dissertation on your thoughts or are you going to shut up and enjoy this?”

  She once again flicked out her tongue, snaking it around his long and hard cock as she took him again in her hot mouth. She relaxed her throat and began to deep throat him, using the extra saliva that collected in her throat and made loud slurping noises. Over and over, she took him whole into her mouth, one hand steadying herself on his thighs while the other played with his balls.

  Zoe briefly opened her eyes and watched Joey’s reaction with a pride smile on her face.

  His head was thrown back and his eyes fluttered as guttural moans escaped his throat. He gently tugged on her hair and a few times almost forced her down on his cock. Whenever he tried that maneuver, Zoe surprised him but wrapping her tongue around his thick shaft and sucked hard, forcing Joey to bite down on a fist and exert a ‘fuck!’

  She suddenly stopped long enough to retrieve a condom and slid it on his shaft. She gently pushed Joey back down on the bed and climbed on top of him. She kissed all over his body, the way he did to her many times over, from his nipples to the hip dents leading to his cock and back up to his neck, where she sucked on it. She then sat completely on his cock, wiggling her hips a little.

  “You feel so good inside my pussy, baby,” Zoe slowly rocked her hips back and forth, “I love how your cock feels inside me.”

  She leaned forward and pinned Joey’s arms to the side as she increased her tempo to a light bouncing motion. She pressed her chest against his as their tongues intertwined, soft moans filling the room, as they once again became one. They were lost within themselves and in each other as they rocked together. Up and down. In and out. Back and forth.

  Joey flipped Zoe on her back and pushed hard into her, burying to the hilt. He spread her legs wide with one hand while the other gently thumbed her clit. He looked down at Zoe and felt a slow smirk appear on his face. Her head was thrown back and her back was arched off the bed.
