A Gift

“Hey”

“Hey Elle, what’s up?”

“I had a really really bad day. Can we get a drink or something?”

“Yeah, I’m just parking now. Do you want to swing by the townhouse? Sylvia is out of town.”

“Yeah, that sounds good, probably better than the usual anyway.. I’ll be there soon or as soon as this fucking traffic will let me be.”

Dan Smiley got out of his car and walked around the corner to the local liquor store.

“Hey Ki, how goes it?”

Ki, the old Korean store keeper looked up from the baseball game on TV briefly.
“Fine,” he said.

Dan picked up a chilled bottle of Chardonnay, Elle’s favorite and paid for it. He walked to the townhouse he shared with his wife Sylvia. Sylvia, “out of town” he thought. More likely, with one of her lovers, Dan thought.

He put the bottle of wine in the refrigerator and made himself a capriosca, a favorite drink from his time in Cartagena with the DEA. The door bell rang, just as he poured the drink into a glass.

Elle, beautiful even when she was distraught smiled at him and gave him a warm hug and briefly rested her head on his shoulder.

“Jesus, Dan. The children are up to their old tricks again.”

“Let me guess, Fred and Ryan did an end run around you again.”

“Shocker. I know,” Elle said as she grabbed a wine glass from the cabinet and opened the refrigerator.

Dan took the bottle of wine from her.

“Here, you sit. I’ll open it.”

“They just don’t give a shit about mission… they just want to stroke their egos. I just hope nothing happens because of their shenanigans.”
Elle sighed as Dan handed her the glass of wine.
She took a few sips and relaxed into the char.

“So where is Sylvia?”

“Our of town. On business.”

“Dan… when are you going to leave?”

“II dunno. I’m a bit trapped financially. But I could ask you the same question.”

“Fuck. I don’t know either. The thought of someone else raising my son kills me. The jackass will find someone to take my place in a heartbeat and push me right out of the picture.”

“I wish things were different Elle. I really love you.”

“I love you too,” she smiled at him.

They stared at each other for a moment.

“We should just sleep together,” she said. “Fuck the whole world already things we are.”

“Elle, I hav been down that dark road. You know it’s why I’m in this situation. It’s horrible and I could never do that to you. It will all work out.”

“I know Dan. I know. But I haven’t had sex in a year.”

“Which is a tragedy in of itself, Elle.”

He walked over and kissed her on the fore heard.

“I so want you,” she said.

“You don’t want the aftermath, trust me.”

She smiled, a smile of resignation.

He stood up and took a sip of his drink.

“Elle… take off your clothes.”

“What?”

“Just take off your clothes.”

“But you just said…”

“Please.”

She sat for a moment, thought and stood up in front of him, just out of arm’s length. She put down her wine, kicked off her shoes and slowly unbutton her blouse. She tossed it aside and undid her pants and stepped out of them. She stood there, a bit embarrassed but strangely at ease as he smiled at her. She undid her bra and sat back down, her gorgeous legs crossed.

Dan knelt before her, took her knees in his hands and spread her legs. She resisted at first, thinking about what he had just said, but gave into her desire, yes, but mostly she surrendered out of deep love for him.

He slowly began to kiss her thighs, slowly and gently at first. He reached up with both hands and pulled off her panties. Moving closer to her pussy, he gently licked her legs. She sighed and then shivered as he moved closer.

Even before he licked her, moisture already collected on her lips and Dan breathed in her sweet scent. He loved that sensation and breathed even more deeply, his cock growing and straining against his clothes. He missed the joyous sensation of pleasing a woman he loved.

He pressed his tongue gently against her outer lips and tasted her essence as he licked upward to her clit but avoided it at first. He continued the licking, more deeply and a little more quickly. He reached up and spread her legs farther as his fingers gently pulled her outer lips apart. Still, he avoided her clit as she writhed and reached her hands down to his head. Pulling his head upwards she pressed it hard against her as his tongue circled and teased her clit. She moaned deeply as he drew it into his mouth continuing to dance his tongue around and over it.

Dan reached down and unbuckled his pants and stroked his cock. How he wanted to make love to her, but he couldn’t, he wouldn’t . He knew that that would change things. He loved her so deeply and feared losing that love.. He feared that more than anything, more than the rangers he faced daily, more than the wrath of his wife and more than the demons that haunted him.

Elle held his head against her, but Dan pulled back and briefly stopped. He pushed her legs up supporting her ass with his hands as he slowly began to lick her again, his nose deep between her lips . His face was wet with her sweetness and he paused again to look at her. She bucked towards him and reached down to stroke herself. Dan kissed her hands and sucked her fingers as his own hand reached up to clasp hers. He rolled her over and began to kiss her buttocks as her hand stoked her clit. He spread her cheeks and sighed deeply at her rich, sweet muskiness that flowed from her. His tongue prober her ass and then her anus and she gasped deeply. He again started licking her pussy as a finger gently rubber her asshole.

She rolled over again and pushed herself to the edge of the chair so her head lay on the seat and her strong legs supported her weight. Again, Dan knelt between her legs and without hesitating, began to suck and lick her clit. She bucked hard against him now, her orgasm building with an intensity she had not felt in years. As she reached her peak, she grabbed his head with both hands and help him deeply to her as thick juices flowed out of her. Dan licked her furiously as she writhed and twisted on the chair, moaning loudly and then breathless.

As she came down, Dan sat back and looked u at her with loving eyes.

“Thank you, Dan, that was wonderful.”

He smiled but said nothing.

“What can I do? What do you need?” she asked after a few minutes.

“Nothing dear. You have given me averring I need.”
