I stood by the kitchen counter, swirling the last sip of wine in my glass.
The clinking of glasses and soft murmurs of my birthday party had died down, leaving the house bathed in a quiet, comfortable glow.
Honestly, I could still hear the faint laughter from the living room, where the few remaining guests were gathered.
At twenty-two I found birthdays more of a reminder of the things I had yet to achieve. Glanced at the clock; it was nearing midnight.
The house was my sister Emma's, a testament to the stability and success I felt lacked.
Emma, always the golden child, had it all-a thriving career as a doctor, a beautiful home, and Robert, her perfect husband.
Robert Woodstown the hot man I saw.
The thought of him sent a shiver down my spine.
He had always been kind to me, often the bridge between me and Emma's contentious relationship.
Tonight, as he had every year, he made sure my birthday was celebrated with warmth and genuine affection.

"Still here, Elena?" Robert's voice brought me back from my reverie.
He leaned against the doorway, his tie loosened and the top buttons of his shirt undone. He looked effortlessly handsome and sexy and my heart quickened.
"Just needed a moment," I replied, trying to steady my voice.
"It's been a long day." He stepped into the kitchen, pouring himself a glass of wine.
"You did a great job with the party. Everyone had a wonderful time."
"Thanks," I said, meeting his eyes chocolate eyes. "It wouldn't have been possible without you."
Robert shrugged modestly.
"Anything for family."
Family.

The word stung. Despite the tension between me and Emma, I had always felt a pull towards Robert that was anything but familial. I took a deep breath, deciding to take the plunge. It was now or never.

"Robert" I began, my voice barely a whisper.
"I need to ask you something."
He's the CEO of one of the companies here in Miami and he got transferred to Alaska two weeks from now I'm not going to see him until god knows when.
Now or never.
He looked up, curiosity mixed with concern in his eyes.
"What is it, Elena?"
My heart pounded in my chest as I sipped my wine and I took a step closer.
"I... I want you to give me a birthday present." I bit my lower lip nervously.

He smiled, relief was evident.
"Of course. What do you need?"
"Not something you can buy," I said quickly, my cheeks flushing as I made my mind up.
"I want... I want a night with you." I blow.
Robert blinked, clearly taken aback by my confirmation.
"Elena, what are you talking about?"
I pressed on, emboldened by the wine and my desperation.
"I've been in love with you for years, Robert. From the first time you stepped in our house. Please, just one night. That's all I'm asking for you before you travel away."
"Did the wine get to your mind?" He shook out.
I rest my palm on his hard chest and I'm dying to run my fingers over it.
"No, I'm not drunk from the wine. If anything your eyes make me drunk." I licked my lips.
Robert's expression shifted from shock to something unreadable. He set his glass down, taking my hand that rests on his chest squeezing lightly.
"Lola, this isn't right. You're my wife's sister."
"And we're not close," I countered, my voice shaking.
"Emma and I... we're practically strangers. Please, just one night. For my birthday. Think about it like a goodbye gift for me." Lucking our gaze to gather.
The silence stretched between us, the weight of my request hanging heavily in the air.
I could see the conflict in his eyes, the moral dilemma tearing him apart.
I held my breath, waiting for him to break the silence.
Finally, Robert spoke, his voice low and strained.
"This is wrong. But... I can't deny I've felt something for you too. This attraction. It's dangerous."
My heart leaped.
"Just one night," I whispered, stepping closer until I could feel the heat of his body swallowing me in.
"Hell, I'm ten years older than you." He blew softly as his fingers took a lock of my brown hair.
"So, what I'm not asking you to marry me. No, one going to know."

His eyes locked over my head I can tell he's in a deep thought.
I wait with beating heart.
Suddenly, he reached out, pulling me up on the counter kitchen and before I can understand what happing his lips was on mine. He kissed me pulling my legs apart to stand between my thigh, I cleared my legs around his waist pulling him more to me.
I moaned softly as I felt his cock brushed over my pants. I was wearing a blue sleeveless dress that gets higher when he pulled me up and set me on the counter kitchen.
The kiss that was both desperate and tender at first before it's turned to hungry and need.
His tongue flicker over mine before he pulled my tongue to his mouth and sucked on it makes me feel hotter as my hands wrapped around his neck pulling him more towards me.
His hand squeezing my hips as I felt his dick getting harder pick my pussy.
Suddenly, when I was about to rubbing myself on him, Robert broke the kiss resting his forehead on mine breathing heavily.
"Fuck, Lola." His voice husky and heavy.
Before he picked my forehead and pulled away from me letting me whined. He fixed his hair that I massed up from our kiss.
Are he going to rejects me after this amazing kiss?
My heartbeat wildly when he started to speak.
"Emma going to fly to Alaska tomorrow afternoon to start her shift on the hospital there on Monday. I'm going to stay back to finish some work before joining her. Come tomorrow night to give your gift." He winked at me before leaving me hot and excited about tomorrow.

I nodded smile to myself, jumping excited as I make my way to my car that was gifted to me last year from Robert.

I finley going to get what I want.
I can't stop smiling as I drove back home.
