My heart skipped a beat. I could scarcely breathe. My underwear moistened.
My mind wandered to our day at the cabin, at how close we had come to fulfilling our desires. Perhaps this was another chance at making that happen.
Then I thought about the glass in my sandwich. I couldn’t be with Andrew, not so long as Bob and Lisa served as a threat to me.
“Andrew will protect you,” Susan tried to assure me.
I wanted to believe her. The more that Andrew pressed himself into my back, the more I wanted to believe that she was right. But how could he protect me from a threat that had so easily disguised itself as a part of his household?
“We can’t do this,” I whispered back to him, “not here, not now. We could disturb Nikolas and Eliza.”
“Then we’ll have to be quiet, won’t we?”
Andrew nuzzled
