Spending the day with the girls in Billings last Sunday had been one of the most freeing experiences I’d had in a long time.

It had felt so good just to do normal things with my friends for the day.

To feel normal again meant everything to me.

I know that it had killed Devon not to protest, but he hadn’t said a word that morning as Hannah was altering my appearance or when we’d left.

He’d simply kissed me and told me to have fun and to be careful.

We’d definitely had fun, and I hadn’t needed to be that careful because I knew I looked different enough to fool anyone who wasn’t close to me.

We’d done the massages, had a picnic lunch in the park, shopped like crazy, and had stopped on the way home for cookies, which Devon had highly appreciated and devoured within a day.

He treated all of my fears like they were perfectly normal given my circumstances and history, and he listened to me, even when he didn’t have all of the answers.

Just having this man in my life was a miracle to me, and I didn’t need any of the gifts he insisted on giving me.

However, I didn’t want to hurt him, either, by flatly refusing something he’d gone to the trouble to get me, but I was at the point where I just couldn’t handle another gift.

He’d already given me so much even before he’d started buying me the material things.

Devon was also a very unselfish lover who made my pleasure his priority.

I insisted on doing the same, but he usually didn’t want to find his release when I gave him oral sex.

He always told me that he’d rather get off deep inside ofme.

I had to say that the man had been right about multiple orgasm. Turns out that I was capable of having them with a man like him.

I was still discovering parts of my sexuality that I’d never known had existed before him.

“Have I ever told you how lucky I feel that you’re my guy?” I asked as I straddled him and nuzzled my face into his neck. “Not because of the material things you give me but because you treat me with the respect a partner deserves.”

“I doubt you felt that way when I was bossing you around in bed last night,” he said hoarsely.

Nowthathad been incredibly hot for me. “It was pretty sexy,” I told him playfully. “You can boss me around in bed any time you want.”

I’d quickly discovered that Devon sometimes wanted to be in complete control in the bedroom, and I was all for that.

The bossy, demanding side of him did it for me sexually.

We were currently naked in the hot tub, and he squeezed my ass approvingly.

Because I was literally on top of him, I could feel that he was impossibly hard even though we’d just had wild sex as part of our workout.

It felt like we could never get enough of each other.

I’d thought that we’d cool off somewhat after the initial lust had calmed down a little.

I’d thought wrong.

The more we’d gotten to know each other’s bodies, the hotter that part of our relationship had become.

I was impossibly addicted to being this intimate and this close to Devon.

He grasped a lock of my hair and pulled my head back so he could see my face.

Our eyes met, and heat rushed between my thighs as I saw the hungry look in his eyes.
