Once Sam's pained expression melted, I knew his quick healing had come into play and he wiped his hand over his mouth. I grabbed a warm washcloth and handed it to him so he could clean up the blood and took a sip of coffee to kill the taste of metal in my mouth. He nodded in thanks as he took the proffered rag and then tossed it into the sink a few feet away before wrapping me up in a bear hug.

"Good girl." He chuckled.

I gazed up at him, amused. "You should never doubt me, Samuel Levi Uley. I'm yours and you're mine."

Leaning down to peck my lips with a soft, hot kiss, he smiled. "I know." He murmured against my lips before kissing my nose then my forehead. "I love you."

"Love you too. Now get going before you're late. I'll bring your lunch at 11:30 after I speak to Paul and then I'm off to work. No play tonight, right?" I double checked. We usually didn't schedule them two nights in a row and if we did, there wasn't a voyeur the second night. Sometimes it was nice to have it just be us and our kinks.

As he grabbed up his cooler that was full with ice packs and drinks, he spoke over his shoulder. "Not tonight. Just us. Love you Red!" He finished with a slight raise to his voice as he darted out the door, letting the screen door slap against the frame.

I showered and dressed in a pair of jeans and a v-neck tee and threw my hair into a ponytail before grabbing my Big Bang Theory wallet and stuffing it in my pocket. The wallet had all the ways to do 'Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock' on it and housed everything I would need for my outings. I hated carrying around a purse so this was easier. There was a spring in my step as I started down the driveway and turned left onto the road, making the short walk to Paul's house which was only a few down from the little cottage I shared with Sam. The clouds were heavy with the ever-present threat of rain but I wasn't worried. Everywhere I had to go today wasn't far from the house so I wouldn't get too wet unless we had a torrential downpour and that was not in the forecast today, thankfully.
