It has been an extraordinarily long day and I am in dire need of relaxing and I know of just the person that can do it. With that thought in mind I couldn't help but smile. A smile like that can only be produced because of the man himself. The closer that I came to the hallway where his apartment was the quicker my pace became. By the time that I had rounded the corner I was almost at a full run. The things that man can make me do I mused to myself.

Stepping in front of the door I allowed my mind to slip into the fantasy world for a moment. I reveled in the memories of the way his rough hands felt against my smooth skin and the heat of his mouth as it traveled over my body. Licking and kissing me in the most intimate of places. Oh yes he was without a doubt a world class lover. Just the memory makes my body tingle in all of the right places.

He could do all of those wonderful things but when he finally buried himself deep within you it was a little piece of heaven. I couldn't help but giggle at the though since little isn't a word that I would associate with that part of his anatomy. Oh no Ric was certainly gifted in that department that was for sure. A small shiver ran through my body. I wanted, no NEEDED to feel that again. I have wasted quite enough time standing around outside of this door. Time to go and get exactly what I came for.

I raised my hand to knock on the door when I heard the distinct sound of a woman's laughter. I stopped dead with my hand still in the air poised to knock. To say that I was stunned would be an understatement. I had always known that there were plenty of women in his past, after all one doesn't become a world class lover over night. But to have one here at this very moment. How could he, after all that we have been through together. He knows my feelings for him and yet he brings some woman here! Did he really think that I wouldn't find out!

I could feel my blood begin to boil. Someone would pay dearly for this. Oh yes someone would pay. Ric is mine and mine alone. No one will have him but me.

I quickly turned to storm back to my quarters when I ran straight into a large and firm chest. Almost stumbling backwards very large hands grabbed a hold of my arms before I could land on the floor.

"Um, hello Gibraltar. Sorry about that."

"No harm done Mrs. Manoso, no harm done."
