Tricking Astrid (ch 15)

Astrid had had an interesting day and evening. She anxiously paced the house, expecting Remy. She had gotten out of the shower when he'd called. Astrid hadn't been in the mood to see him, but he would not take no for an answer. She had poured a glass of wine after his call and now went into the kitchen to refill her glass. Her nerves were edgy from the information Calder had placed in her head. Was Remy stalking her? Whatever for? Astrid only went running and to the club now that she no longer worked. If he himself was working how could he tail her? She half wondered if Calder was trying to make her paranoid. She had expected a little taunt towards getting her to leave Remy, but not the other things he'd said. It was too creepy. Hearing Remy's car just as she finished her second glass of wine, Astrid felt a little braver. Looking down at the cute little silk black mini-robe she wore, she suddenly wished had put on more clothes. Remy would be revved up. S…

Tricking Astrid (ch 13)

Remy was thrilled Astrid accepted his job when most women wouldn't because, yeah, he fucked other people. She truly was exceptional when it came to accepting people at face value.
Only, he found himself being aggressive because of how easily Astrid took situations. She was submissive when he had met her, but he saw changes in her. He liked her insecurity. It had been part of her charm. Sure, Astrid still avoided eye contact, asked somewhere insecure questions about why he wanted her, but she had changed.
Remy had been about to blow his wad when Arlo interrupted. The hand he clamped down on Astrid's mouth had been instinctive. He loved the way Astrid sounded while she came and he didn't want to share her. Calder obviously had already experienced her sexual sonnets, and that alone made his preservation of Astrid utterance even more hard-handed.
When Astrid had come, so unexpectedly, he held onto her voluptuous body in rapture. He would never tire of her bod…
