My audit is done at work so I should be able to get back to updating more regularly. Thanks for your patience. Please review.

The next morning, I woke to the sound of birds chirping outside my window. Immediately my actions of the night before entered my mind. I wanted to climb back into bed and never come out again but I knew I couldn't do that. So, I got dressed and prepared for my day. My bereavement leave is up at work so I must go into the office. Which thinking of everything going on around here I'm looking forward to it.
Luckily, I love my job. I've only been out of school for a year and I'm already a Human Resources Specialist. I wouldn't be in this position if I hadn't been at the top of my class and received an internship with the magazine my senior year at the University of Washington. Eventually, I want to move further up in the HR world. I'm one of the few lucky ones because it can be hard getting into the HR field if you don't know anyone. Many of my friends from school haven't found positions in their field and they're being forced to settle just to pay their student loans. I'd prefer working for a larger company but I need the benefits because Michael's job doesn't offer benefits, partly because he opened his own sporting goods shop when he graduated two years ago with a degree in business. He does exceptionally well otherwise, we wouldn't have this house.
I walked to the stairs at the end of the hallway. I can hear talking coming from the kitchen. The entire time I descend the stairs I'm hoping Edward has already left for the day. Unfortunately, when I look up he's there talking to Michael. I grab some fruit and a bowl of cereal and sit down at the table. Our table sits four people, and Michael and Edward wouldn't sit next to each other so I'm stuck between the two. Immediately, I'm uncomfortable but I manage to take a bite of my cereal. I start to peel my orange when I feel a hand on the inside of my thigh working its way toward my nether regions. I look towards Michael and he has both hands on the table reading the paper and eating. When I look at Edward he has a grin on his face.
I want to tell him to stop it but I know if I say anything Michael will hear and wonder what's going on. My only option is to eat as quickly as possible and speak to Edward later. I slowly cross my legs forcing Edwards hands away. This can't go on, I love my husband. I don't want to cheat on him especially with his father. It takes everything in me to finish my food because even though I don't want it to happen it did feel amazing.
I finish my food in record time and get up to leave. Michael asked why I was in such a hurry and I replied that I had so much work to catch up on since I missed four days of work. It will make for a short week since today is Friday but I need to get away from Edward. Michael replied that he would also be staying late to go through inventory since it's the end of the month. Which meant he wouldn't be home until close to 10 tonight.
***Later that evening***
As I pull into the driveway I notice Edward is already here. I dread going inside but I'm so tired from my day at work. I just want to eat dinner and take a long bath in my tub and turn the jets on to relieve my aching muscles. I decide to put on a brave face and head in the house.
I'm pleasantly surprised when I walk in and hear classical music playing and I'm hit with a delicious smelling aroma coming from the kitchen. I place my purse and keys on the table in our entryway and slip off my shoes and walk back to the kitchen. Edward is pulling something out of the oven when I walk in. I can't help but ask, "What did you make?"
Surprised he turns towards me with a smile on his face he says, "I made one of my favorites, Lemon Roasted Lambchops with baby roasted potatoes. It will be ready in a couple of minutes."
I reply with a smile "That sounds amazing. Let me go wash my hands then I can help you set the table."
When I return he is already at the table lighting some candles and he has two plates at the table. I go to take a seat. I try to sit opposite him but he picks up his plate so he can sit beside me. Nervously, I look at him again and I find him gazing at me in a way that makes me even more nervous. I clear my throat and say, "Thank you for dinner but we really need to talk about last night."
He shakes his head confirming and his smile drops. He goes to speak but I cut him off. "Edward, what happened last night shouldn't have happened and it can't happen again. I'm married, to your son. I love him and I don't want to hurt him. So, please stop trying to touch me I don't want to hurt you but I just can't do this. Do you understand?"
He looks into my eyes and takes my hands into his and then says, "Bella, I NEED you. Please don't take this away from me. When I'm with you I feel normal, I feel needed. I've been attracted to you since the first time I saw you. Over the years since I've known you I've fallen in love with you. Michael's correct I don't miss Eliza the way I should because I didn't love her the way I love you. You and I are meant to be. I know you can feel it. Please don't end this."
I take my hands from his and look back at my plate. I take a bite of my food trying to distract myself and I moan at the taste of the food. That was the wrong thing to do because when I look up I see Edward staring at me with eyes burning with desire. The food forgotten he grabs my face and brings me towards him and our mouths collide in a sharp kiss. I pull away after a moment to catch my breath but then I do the unthinkable and grab his hair and pull him to me for a deeper kiss. He stands bringing me with him. We stumble our way up the stairs. At the top of the landing he slams me into the wall. We pull at each other's clothing trying to get closer to each other. Somehow, we make it into his bedroom where our clothing is removed.
He pushes me down on his bed. Quickly he climbs on top of me and I spread my legs allowing him immediate access. It doesn't take any time for him to insert his long hard cock into my throbbing pussy. He pulls my hair to give him better access to my neck. He bites down and I know I'm going to have a mark that I'll need to hide. I claw at his back as he pounds into me. I wrap my legs around him trying to get him to go deeper. It isn't long before I cum and he's right behind me. He pulls out of me and moves to my side. I turn towards him and we both smile. We go two more rounds before we decide to go back downstairs to clean up dinner.
As we clean up neither one of us can keep our hands off the other. I know Michael will be home soon so I tell Edward we have to stop for the night. He pouts but gives me one last kiss before I head upstairs to prepare for bed. As I lay in bed I ponder about the future. I love Michael and I don't want to hurt him but I don't think I will be able to stop this thing I have with Edward.
