Sexual Deceptions
Say something, baby. Please. Tell me to go if that s what
you want. He stroked her cheek with his knuckles, a slow,
lingering caress that made her yearn for him to stroke her all
over.
Her choices were simple. Take the chance to have him be
a part of her life, or close the door to him. It was up to her.
She made the only choice she could. Madelyn listened to
her heart.
It s okay, Dallas. I forgive you.
Relief washed over his features, the worry lines
smoothed out on his forehead. His eyelids slowly dropped,
then snapped up. Her name was a breathy sigh on his lips.
Madelyn.
She smiled up at him. I forgive you, but I think you ll
have to do something really special to get back in my good
graces.
Just tell me what it is and I ll do it. Say the word.
Madelyn batted her eyelashes coyly. Surely he could fig-
ure it out without her going into great detail. Surely.
Dallas eyes widened slightly, his pupils expanded to be
surrounded by only a thin ring of blue.
You-you don t mean I have to have sex with you again,
do you? He feigned horror.
Well, she d drawn herself a joker. That was clear. Every
deck had two and she could give as good as she got.
Yes. That s exactly what I mean. Are you up for it?
He coughed. Maybe you should check that out for your-
self.
She ran her hands down his sides, down the inside of his
thighs, before trailing one index finger along his growing
erection. Hmmm. I remember it& bigger.

Sexual Deceptions
Madelyn, he groaned. Give a guy a break.
She wrapped her hand around him and stroked ever so
gently. Let s see if I can provide a little encouragement, shall
we?
Dallas fell onto his side. Madelyn giggled as they bounced
on the soft mattress. He scooped her up into his arms and
kissed her.
I don t deserve you. I don t deserve a second chance.
Why are you giving me one, Madelyn?
It was a valid question. She hoped he d understand her
reluctance to catalogue every feeling, every thought, every
nuance, and just go with what she felt. At least for now.
They could dissect every stray blip of emotion over coffee
for the next one hundred years if that would make him happy,
but not tonight.
Does there have to be a why, Dallas? Must everything
be explained? Can t the connection we feel and I know you
feel it, too be enough?
I do feel it, and yes, it can be enough for tonight. I love
you, Madelyn. I knew it the moment I saw you. He pulled
her closer. She melted against him, content to rest in his em-
brace. They had the night, and all the nights that followed, to
find out. A bright future, well served.
She would follow his lead across all their nights, and days,
too. I m so glad you re real, Dallas, because I love you, too.
Outside the door, Hazel smiled, and went to put their
dinner in the oven to stay warm.
