In a Snowstorm

2014 – The Night of the Blackout

A flashlight in hand, Laura moved through the darkened interior of hers and Antonio's home. Her cell phone went off in her other hand and she jumped in fright then quickly answered with, "Hey, baby. How's work going?"

"Slow," was her husband's response, "and we're still trying to get the power back on."

"Yeah, it's out here too," Laura responded. "And yes, I have a flashlight."

Antonio chuckled from the other end of the line. "Good girl."

"Bite me, amour," she told him while making a face, even though he couldn't see it.

"Kinky," he said, grinning.

"Oh, you'd like that, wouldn't you?"

"Mm, it would be a nice thing to imagine," he said, still grinning.

"Get your mind out of the gutter for right now, Dawson. You're supposed to be working," his wife reminded him.

"But I'd rather be with you," he whined.

"Too bad, baby; guess you'll just have to dream about biting me," she said with a giggle.

"When I get home, what do you say we fire up the Jacuzzi tub and I'll show you just how eager I'd be to nip your earlobe as I push my fingers deep into your core," he whispered seductively.

Laura bit down on her bottom lip to suppress the moan that threatened to escape her. "Not fair, amour," she whispered.

"Oh, it's plenty fair when you're teasin' me too," he replied softly.

Author's Note: Yes, this is over a month late, and I apologize. Work has been hectic, and with the snow, it got 10 times worse, so here is an update despite the headache I have.
