Hired for secrets

Lake of darkness

Phil and Sofie arrived at the safe-house as the sun was setting. Golden hour dipped the little cabin in a warm glow. It didn't matter that it was barely liveable, it was a place for them to be together. And that's all that mattered for now.

Sofie fought the little rusty door on the dilapidated front porch. "We need to change that damn lock," she muttered impatiently when Phil wrapped his arms around her.

"We have all the time in the world to fix this up as our home," he breathed against the nape of her neck.

Sofie leaned back into him, feeling his chest rise as he brushed her buttocks against his groin.

"On second thoughts, you better get the door open otherwise I'll have you right here." His hands moved over the curves of her hips with a sudden famishing hunger. "I want you so badly. You've been all I could think about the past couple of weeks."

Sofie let out a small giggle that turned into a moan as his warm lips brushed over her skin. With one last shove the door finally gave way and they tumbled into the living room, bumping the table and chairs. This space was way too small.

Phil backed her against the wall and their mouths melted into each other.

"Do you have any candles?" he rasped as their lips finally parted.

"Are you worried about switching on the lights?" They had been careful coming here. Taking the tube and walking the rest of the way. Sofie was certain they had no tail. No one should know they were here.

"No," Phil laughed, "This is our first time together as you and me. And I want it to be special."

"Oh," Sofie blushed. This had not even occurred to her. But she was glad that one of them had a romantic streak. "I see what I can find."

Heading for the small bathroom he added, "I take a quick shower."

When he returned Sofie had placed thick white candles on the fireplace mantle and next to the bed. Their glow gave the rundown bedroom a rustic-chic feel and Sofie was pleased with the transformation. This actually felt cosy.

"You are so beautiful," Phil breathed, standing in the doorframe with his hair still wet from the shower.

He took her into his arms, cautious and longing, like he could not believe that this was actually real. That they were finally together, without games or agendas.

"And you are naked," Sofie grinned, inhaling his clean soapy scent as she unraveled the towel around his hips.

She let her hand run down his taut belly, feeling him grow hard.

"Do we have a condom?"

"You are mine now." Sofie looked into his hazel-brown eyes. The warmth she saw in them was not the reflection of the candles. It came from deep within. It was the radiating comfort of belonging. "We haven't been with anyone else since getting tested at Elandra and I'm on birth control. I want to feel all of you."

A tempting smile played around his lips. She'd pushed open the door to experiencing his full repertoire. Tonight was a small preview of what was to come, what the rest of their lives would be like. And Sofie couldn't wait to get started.

"Lie down," she commanded. Not breaking eye contact she slowly crawled on top and straddled him. His bare member twitched against the thin fabric of her panties. She let her eyes roam over the handsome man below her. All the scheming and decisions had taken her to this point. All the dangers and risks were worth it. He was worth it all.

She unzipped her dress and lifted it over her head. She needed to feel his skin on hers. Sensing her urge, he let his hand slide up her flanks, hooking his thumbs underneath the clasp of her bra, and making her breast spring free. He cupped them and sucked a nipple into his mouth. Lust rolled through Sofie's body as he swirled his tongue around her hardening bud.
