Hunter leaned against the jamb in absolute thrall. He massaged his dick through his pants. This was the sexiest damn thing he’d ever experienced in his life. Listening, he could hear her panting, making sexy little moans. He could just imagine that she was finger-fucking herself, riding her little hand and wishing it was him making her feel good. When he heard a movement, Hunter turned, leaving as he’d come. Being caught outside the door eavesdropping on her would be disastrous.
Needing to cool off, he ducked into the powder room. God, he was hard. Hunter stared at himself in the mirror and wondered who the guy looking back at him was. Here he was, just about to meet the woman he’d yearned for more than air and he was about to mess up by leading on one of the sweetest women he’d ever met. Cody had been nothing but nice to him and he’d given in to his weakness and kissed her. Hunter hung his head and ran some water over his hands, wetting his face, wanting to jack-off so bad he could taste it. But he couldn’t. He just couldn’t. As soon as he was with Sage, all of this would work out.
He lingered a few moments longer, knowing he had to go out and make things right. Cody hadn’t done anything wrong. All of this was on his own head.
Opening the door, he went into the kitchen and waited.
And waited.
After thirty minutes, he realized she wasn’t coming out.
And he was too cowardly to go to her, so he left.
Chapter Six
Hunter searched online till he found a place to rent a tuxedo. Fortunately for him, the shop also carried masks and he picked up a fairly plain, black one that would only hide his eyes. On the way back to the motel, he purchased a six pack of beer. He came back to the motel and drank it all. Feeling disconnected, he turned on the TV and watched a marathon of Bones. For the first night in forever, he wasn’t even tempted to turn on the computer.
When he fell asleep, his dreams were mixed up. Sage. Cody. Sage. Cody.
He thrashed under the covers, sweat beading on his body.
All he could hear was Sage whimpering his name.
Cody calling out his name.
Both women caught up in the throes of ecstasy.
The same voice.
One voice.
Cody. Sage. Cody. Sage.
As day broke, he’d quieted. Sleep, like the tide, had swept away the details that had caused him confusion and he rose, ready to face the day. Ready to apologize to Cody and ready to contact Sage and tell her that she was all he ever wanted.
Ding!
Hunter had just stepped out of the shower when he heard it. The welcome sound brought a smile to his lips. Throwing a towel around his waist, he went to his computer. Sure enough, there it was.
Sage : Good morning, baby. Are you there?
Hunter felt his heart surge in his chest.
Hunter : Morning, sunshine. I’m here. Are we still on for tonight?
Sage : Yes. Meet me at the Magnolia Room in the Southern Belle Plaza at seven. Black tie, optional. Mask required.
Hunter : How will I find you?
Sage : Don’t worry, I’ll find you.
Hunter : Is this really happening, are we finally going to be together?
Sage : Yes, I’ll be in your arms tonight, until the break of dawn if you want me.
Hunter : Oh, I want you. I want you in every way a man can want a woman. It seems like I’ve waited forever for you.
There was no return answer for about thirty seconds and Hunter thought she’d lost power or something. But it finally came.
Sage : I am so afraid.
Hunter almost dropped his computer.
Hunter : Why, baby? You know me better than anyone does.
Sage : I know I do. That’s not the problem. You don’t know me.
Hunter : Oh, yes I do. Let me tell you what I know. Ready?
Sage : I’m listening.
Hunter : I know you sleep on the left side of the bed and that you hog the covers. I know your favorite color is orange. I know you hate cooked spinach. I know you get up at seven every morning and have to sleep with a fan. I know your second toe is longer than your big toe.
