Since they had married watching his wife's nightly ritual before bed had become a favourite pastime of Richard's.

He was perched on the bathroom window sill in his pyjama bottoms watching her as she started to rub cream into her hands. She caught him looking at her in the mirror and smiled.

Knowing he had been caught he came up behind her and wrapped his arms around her middle pulling her back to his chest.

"Nicky seems nice, I'm glad she and Madeleine are getting on well" Audrey sighed

Richard nodded "Yes, although there is something that feels off about her, I just can't put my finger on it"

Audrey patted his hand "I know what you mean, the way she just excepted Madeleine does seem strange. If I was her I don't think I'd be so quick to forgive"

Richard delved one hand between the gap in her robe but instead of finding her or rather his pyjama top that she usually wore he found her silky soft skin.

"Mmm...what's this" he said catching her eyes in the mirror.

"Well you see darling it's so hot tonight that I thought I just wouldn't wear anything to bed"

"I think that's a marvellous idea darling, perhaps I better do that to" he said as his hand moved from her stomach to brush the underside of her breast.

Before he could move it any further Audrey grabbed his hand "I'll leave that up to you, now brush your teeth and then come to bed" she said walking out of the bathroom.

It really was a warm night and Audrey was relieved she had not worn anything to bed, she laid on her side waiting for her husband to come to bed. Richard had also decided it was far to warm to wear anything in bed.

He climbed in behind her sliding his arm under her pillow and pressing his chest to her back, his other arm wrapped around her waist, bringing his knees up behind hers spooning her.

When Audrey felt her husband press against her naked she was instantly aroused. She didn't know what had come over her in the last few weeks she just couldn't get enough off him.

She pushed her backside against his groin feeling his body respond to her movements.

"Audrey..." he sighed "The things you do to me...I can't get enough of you darling" Putting a hand on her hip he guided himself into her. She gasped as he entered her and laced her fingers with his where they rested on her hip.

Richard kissed her neck as he slowly moved his hips against hers, Audrey closed her eyes and moaned with pleasure. She moved his hand from her hip down between her legs where he pressed his fingers on her sensitive bud and began stroking her. Audrey reached back, her hand clurching his head, running her fingers through his hair.

He started moving faster behind her, panting as he increased his movements, Audrey moaned at the feel of him moving inside her. She loved how he made her feel.

They climaxed together Audrey crying out moments before Richard.

Exhausted from their lovemaking they lay still spooned together, before Richard reached for the sheet and pulled it up over them.

"So much for keeping cool" Audrey giggled

"I can't help it darling, you have that effect on me."

Audrey turned her head as Richard made sure she was covered by the sheet. He leaned down to give her a tender kiss, then entwined their fingers on her stomach before falling into a peaceful slumber.
