chapter 9 teaser

OK, I'm about a third of the way finished with chapter nine. I was hoping to be mostly finished by now, but what can ya do? (I got caught up in the epic USA v Canada gold medal hockey game. Congrats to Canada.)

Would you like a little teaser? Yes? I thought you might.

"It's almost six o'clock," I responded after glancing at the clock. "What time do you have to be at work?"

"Whenever. That's the nice thing about being the owner, I can make my own schedule." He flashed me the smirk that turns my legs to jell-o, and rolled onto his side facing me. "What about you?"

"I should really be in no later than eight. After all, I took off of work early on Friday so I could get a massage. I had this really sexy masseur, and I fantasized about having sex with him on his table," I teased, smiling broadly at the hint of playfulness dancing across his features.

"And did the real thing live up to the fantasy?" His voice was thick and gravelly, from sleep or lust, I couldn't be sure. My heart-rate began to quicken as his penetrating gaze drilled into my soul, where his had now taken up residence. My feisty resolve crumbled and with my body and soul now completely on display, I answered him with a whisper.

"It would be more accurate to ask if the fantasy lived up to the real thing." Completely overcome with emotion, my eyes filled with tears. "And that answer would be 'no'. You are so much more than just a fantasy."

I hope to have this posted by the end of this evening, but it's looking like it will be tomorrow. Anyway, thanks for sticking with me girls!
