They’ll figure things out soon enough. I want some alone time with you.”We sat together closely but quietly until just before eight. Jam said quie...ly, “Let’s fill our cups again and search out breakfast.” I nodded. We stood together. At the sideboard, he poured more coffee in our cups and we left for a dining room or kitchen.On the way, we met King Marcus with two guards walking toward us. They stopped at a door and waited for us. The King said, “Breakfast is in here.”Jam nodded and I said,. We even had an extra wagon to load with our tents, food, and other supplies.I dozed fitfully, and not because of my shoulder this time. It hadn’t hurt much for two days now, but I hadn’t ridden more than two miles each way. Captain Tjorius woke me in plenty of time. Once I was dressed and put my armor on, I met Tallak and the ten men going with us.I had been surprised when Tallak told me about a secret tunnel that exited the castle and city well outside the city walls, providing a sally port.. Um, sex. Just oral. But you should know.” Frown. “Right?”“Right.” I took both his hands in mine. “I should have known before. But I’m glad you told me, babylove. Really I am.”Relieved. “We’re not going to ... she said we’ll ... wait.”“Good. Tell Pilar she can talk to me anytime. To Vanessa too.”It was time to do something I’ve been looking forward to for a while. No, I wasn’t practicing deferred gratification. Never been much good at that. It’s just I’ve been so damned busy with my caseload,. “I told you we should have tagged her and now she has fucked Paul and there is no coming back from that pounding” I jump at the sound of Mike’s voice and cover my crotch with my hands.“Holy fuck” I say startled “what the fuck are you talking about” I say feigning ignorance.“sorry bud but Natalie and Paul kind of took advantage of your drunk wife while you were passed out, but what say you and I have some fun she will not mind and plus she deserves a good fucking considering she has been fucking.
