Chloe kisses Steve, practically straddling on his lap. He should be pushing her off but he isnât. Physically feels like he canât, and he knows thatâs a real big fucking problem. But Steve hasnât felt this wanted and adored in decades. Heâs soaking it up.
âAnd you know, Steve,â Cindy continues from the kitchen. This is dangerous. Sheâs so close, she canât see them but if she walks down the hallway, sheâd catch them. âJudith has been a part of the HOA for twelve years. She has seniority, and she deserves that position.â
Steve pulls away from the kiss to answer lamely, âYeah, thatâs a long time.â
Chloe grabs his jaw and pulls him back into the kiss. And he really canât stop, not even when she fully straddles him. Instead his hands move her ass, squeezing as he kisses back.Â
âIt sure as hell is! The longest of anyone on there besides Richard, but thatâs why heâs the acting president. I told Judith that at their next meeting she better demand that goddamn position,â Cindy continues ranting.
Steve doesnât give a fuck about the HOA. He never has. In fact he regrets moving into this place because of them every day. But right now, he doesnât really care about a thing but this gorgeous girl in his lap who feels the need to be attached at the mouth constantly.Â
Chloe was driving him insane. She was so attached to him since they kissed and he figured this would happen, which was partly why he was trying not to do that. She kept calling him her boyfriend and the thing that sucked, was Steve thought it was really cute. So he played along.Â
âUh huh,â Steve pulls away, opens his mouth to speak but Chloe licks into it. He pushes her back, narrows his eyes at her but heâs smiling. Because he fucking liked it. Liked that she didnât care, it seemed like she wanted to get caught. But he hopes itâs just a matter of her being unable to help herself.Â
âAnswer her,â Chloe whispers.
Steve grabs her jaw, tilts it upright as he finally answers his wife, âShe should, honey.â
He hated the president of their HOA but Cindy worshiped the fucker. He was retired, was a real estate mogul and was so bored that he needed to be in charge of the HOA. And he ran it with an iron fist. For a long time, Steve kept getting threatening letters about his lawn, his paint colors and where heâd park his cars. Until Cindy got close to Judith and in turn, close with Richard. He hadnât got a letter since.Â
Chloe grinds down on him and his eyes widen. He has to start cooking dinner soon, he really cannot afford a boner. Cindy was busy in the kitchen, making some lemon bars for the meeting where Judith will demand a promotion. But she could really walk into the living room at any moment. Heâs been trying to listen for footsteps but with all the kissing and grinding, his hearing is a little fuzzy. Because Steve is horny. Very much so.Â
He grabs her hips and stops her movements, but sheâs kissing him again and he starts to melt.Â
What was worse, was that Jennifer was also in the kitchen, helping Cindy make those lemon bars. And she pitches in.
âI feel like Judith already has the power, why does she need the title?â he hears his daughter's voice as her best friend kisses him eagerly.Â
And this really should be so wrong, he should not be acting this way but god, Steveâs never felt more alive in his entire life. Chloe makes him feel like heâs in his twenties again. She makes him feel wanted and desired in a way he hasnât felt in decades. And sheâs fucking gorgeous.
Heâd never admit this, but the first time Steve realized Chloe was attractive was when she was eighteen or nineteen and she came over for a pool party. He remembers distinctly that they shared an awkward moment, alone in the kitchen. Steve was preparing the meat to take out on the grill and Chloe came in to get a drink. She was soaking wet from the pool and Steve looked. And he shouldnât have but he did. Instead of being a total creep, he just asked that she dry off before coming into the house.Â
And now, years later, heâs making out with her on his couch while his wife and daughter make desserts in the next room.Â
What the fuck is his life?
âWell, the title is important, honey,â Cindy defends her best friend. âIsnât that right, Steve? People wouldnât take you seriously without that Dealer Principal plaque on your office, would they?â
âNope,â he replies quickly, holding Chloeâs jaw as he pulls her back, âAbsolutely not.â
âYouâre good at this,â Chloe teases in a whisper, nudging her nose against Steveâs.Â
Jennifer sighs, âChloe! Do you think the title is important if you have the power?â
Steve watches as the blonde freezes. Sheâs clearly not as good at this as he is. He squeezes her hips, looks at her expectantly and she answers, a little sheepishly, âI mean donât titles come with more money?â
âYes!â Cindy cheers, âAnd this man is going to take the pay raise while poor Judith does all the work.â
Steve snorts at that. All Judith does is drive around and find things to complain about.Â
âHoney, grab the powdered sugar,â Cindy tells Jennifer and Steve knows theyâre done.
He kisses Chloe one last time before pulling her off of his lap. He grabs a book off the coffee table, crosses his legs as he leafs through it. Chloe moves to the opposite side of the couch and grabs her phone, scrolling through it. And thank god they do, because Jennifer comes wandering in.Â
âI just think itâs kind of pointless. Theyâre a fucking HOA,â she shrugs, âItâs really not that serious.â
Steve chuckles, âThey think theyâre very serious, princess.âÂ
âI donât get it,â she says, plopping on the couch between him and Chloe.Â
âNeither do I,â Chloe shrugs, looking incredibly bored. And Steveâs eyes linger on her, though they shouldnât. Sheâs just so effortlessly pretty.
He sighs, stands up and says, âItâs a bunch of retired assholes who love to complain. Iâm shocked your mom isnât on the board.â
Then he walks into the kitchen and sees his wife finishing up her lemon bars. Cindy is pretty, she always has been. Steve was enamored with her when Robin first introduced them. Things were good, until that mistake he made. Since then, Cindy never forgave him.Â
And here he is doing it again.Â
âThose look great, honey,â he tells her.Â
Cindy purses her lips, âJennifer didnât make them symmetrical.â
âI donât think anyone will notice,â Steve offers. âIt smells nice.â
âOh, theyâll notice,â she says as she places them carefully in the pastry box she bought. Then she moves to fill her glass with wine. Afterwards, she moves to the backyard, where sheâll spend the rest of the night. Steveâs used to it. She canât stand to be in the same room with him for very long.Â
When they went to the Ritz Carlton for their anniversary, she spent most of that time in the spa. They had dinner together, and they shared a bed. But that was about it. Steve spent the whole time thinking about Chloe, how if he brought her to a nice hotel, they wouldnât leave the room.Â
And as if on cue, Chloe comes skipping into the kitchen.Â
âDo you want help cooking?â she asks.
Steve smiles, tucks her hair behind her ear and bends down to kiss her gently. Itâs so nice having her here, really. He feels cared for.Â
Yeah, okay, so sheâs immature. She lets emotion lead her decision. She kissed his best employee because she was mad at him. But sheâs infatuated with Steve and thatâs very intoxicating.Â
He pulls back and opens the fridge.
Jennifer wanders in, âWhatâs for dinner?â
Steve starts pulling out the ingredients, âShrimp linguine.âÂ
âOoh, yes, thatâs the best,â Jennifer praises.Â
âMhm,â Steve mumbles, filling a pot with water so he can boil the pasta, âIâve been craving it.â
âI donât like shrimp,â Chloe admits.Â
Jennifer rolls her eyes, âYou havenât had my dadâs shrimp.â
Chloe snorts and Jennifer squeals, âEw! Chloe!â
Steve turns to the girls, confusion written on his face until he realizes. And he says, âOh, my god.â
âIgnore me. Please. How about some wine? You guys want some wine?â Chloe says, rushing to the wine fridge.Â
âYouâre so embarrassing, oh, my god,â Jennifer complains.Â
âWine sounds nice. Grab that Sauvignon Blanc, itâll pair with the food,â he says, turning back to start chopping his vegetables.Â
Chloe opens the wine, pours three glasses and sets one down for Steve. He grabs it and gulps it down, though he shouldnât. It burns his throat. But Jesus Christ. She really needs to be more careful. Even though he thinks itâs a bit funny. Sheâs had his uh⊠shrimp? And itâs not exactly shrimp sized. But god damn. She needs a firmer grip on these boundaries.Â
Jennifer seems disgusted by these remarks, but never surprised. So Steveâs wondering how long Chloeâs had a crush on him, and what the hell sheâs been saying to his daughter about it. He thinks heâll ask her next time he can.Â
And unfortunately, heâs been dying to be alone with her. Itâs been only four days since Friday, when they made love. And theyâve definitely had their moments but theyâre rushed and too few and far in between.Â
One thing is the tennis camp coming up. Jennifer and Cindy always go. That means Steve will have a whole weekend alone with Chloe. And heâs been thinking about it nonstop. Two more weeks.Â
âAny update on that Adam guy?â Jennifer asks Chloe and Steve turns to them.
âNo,â Steve says sternly, points his finger at Chloe and she giggles.Â
âWhy canât Chloe go out with him?â Jennifer asks.
Steve turns to her, brows furrowed, âJenny, you know Adam. Since you were a kid.â
âSo? Chloe didnât know him,â Jennifer argues.
Chloe tilts her head, âYeah, Mr. Harrington, I didnât know him.â
Steve narrows her eyes at her, âNo. Thatâs a lawsuit waiting to happen. Date literally anyone else. No coworkers.â
And this game is fun, because Steve doesnât think sheâll actually pursue more with Adam. Unless he upsets her in some way.Â
âI think Iâm just gonna be celibate from now on,â Chloe replies.
Jennifer laughs, a little too hard. Steve just shrugs, continues cutting up the vegetables.Â
âOh, yeah, right,â Jennifer chuckles.
Steveâs uncomfortable as all get up. So he changes the subject.
âJennifer, you thinking about graduate school? Or a job? Anything?â
She groans, then sits up, âIâve been thinking about a gap year. Backpacking in Europe.â
âHell yeah,â Steve says, âI think thatâs a good idea.â
Her face drops, âWhat?â
Steve does think itâs a good idea. He loves his daughter to death but sheâs incredibly entitled. Partly his fault, mostly Cindyâs fault. She needs some experience like that, see the world and how people live.
âI always wanted to do that,â Steve says, âBut ya know, my dad cut me off. I had to make money, I was still dead set on Nancy changing her mind so I didnât. Then I met your mom and well, the rest is history.â
Chloe hums, âI think about it, too. Itâd be fun, I think. Staying in hostels, partying all night.â
Steve snorts but says, âI say go for it, princess. Youâll learn a lot. Then you can come back, get a job or finish school. But you gotta do something.â
âLike being a secretary?âÂ
Chloe gasps, âMy job is very important!â
âIt is. Couldnât do my job without ya,â Steve comments and Chloe visibly melts.Â
âI feel like Iâd be bored,â Jennifer says, âI donât know what I want to do. Thereâs like, so much out there.âÂ
âAnd youâll figure it out, it took me a long time to settle into this,â Steve offers.
âWhat grade did you teach?â Chloe asks.
Steve snickers, âUh, middle school. In the eighties and nineties. Fun time.â
Chloe admits, âI canât imagine you being a teacher.â
âWell, it was just sex ed,â he replies, âI didnât have a classroom or anything. My main job then was coaching.â
âAnd that I can see,â Chloe says.
âHe volunteered to coach softball when I was doing it,â Jennifer says.Â
âAw, how cute,â Chloe giggles.
Steve puts the pasta in the boiling water and starts to sear the shrimp.Â
The conversation continues, easy and comfortable until Steveâs finished cooking. Chloe sets the table and then Steve goes to tell Cindy itâs done.
They sit down and immediately, Chloe is dragging her foot against his shin. Chloe does this literally every night. He expects it at this point. He looks at her, she smiles and bites her lip. Gives him a look that if his wife cared to notice, would make this all so obvious. But she doesnât notice. And she never will.Â
âOh, this is so good,â Chloe practically moans.
âTry the shrimp,â Steve tells her, nodding at her.Â
Chloe does as he says, chews slowly and raises her brows, âHuh.â
âRight?â Jennifer interjects.Â
âItâs not bouncy,â Chloe reflects and Steve feels really proud of himself.Â
âThatâs âcause I know what Iâm doing,â Steve says.Â
Cindy butts in, âOnly because you took a bunch of classes after we got married because I couldnât stand your cooking.â
âWell,â Chloe drags her toes against her knee, âThey paid off.âÂ
Steve grabs hold of her ankle under the table, squeezes and says, âThank you.âÂ
After dinner, Cindy goes back outside and Jennifer goes to shower. Chloe follows him into the kitchen, presses him against the counter and kisses him filthy. Cradles his jaw, presses against him as she licks into his mouth.Â
âI need you,â she says when she pulls away, âSo bad.â
âI know,â he breathes, âI want you, too. But we gotta be smart.â
âWhen they go to sleep⊠come to my room, please,â Chloe begs. âI need you, daddy.â
Steve picks her up, sets her on the counter as he kisses her hard. She kisses back, hands in his hair. And they continue making out like that. Itâs wreckless, Steve knows but he really canât help himself. Heâs going on full instinct here. This girl drives him wild. Her legs wrap around his waist, pulls him in.Â
She mutters against his mouth, âI need my boyfriend to come and fuck me.â
âHe will,â Steve promises, âBut only if my girlfriend helps me with the dishes and watches a movie with me.â
Chloe pushes him back, jumps off the counter and gets busy doing the dishes. Steve holds her from behind, starts kissing her neck and she melts in his arms.Â
âCareful,â she warns, âIâm gonna need you to fuck me right here, right now if you tease too much.âÂ
He steps back, âYou know I want to.â
They work easily, getting the kitchen clean.Â
Then the pair of them get settled on the couch and get a movie started. Thatâs when Jennifer joins them on the couch. Steve feels like a horrible father, because the whole time heâs just waiting for Jennifer to go to bed.Â
Halfway through the movie, Cindy comes in. Deserts her glass of wine in the kitchen and then retreats into their bedroom. Steve knows sheâs gonna pass out cold on their bed. Chloe gets up then, looks at Steve and Jennifer.
âYou guys want some ice cream?âÂ
âNo, Iâm probably going to head to bed soon. Iâm sleepy,â Jennifer says.
Steve tells her, "Yeah, just a little bit.âÂ
âOkay, be right back,â Chloe says.Â
She returns soon enough. Hands Steve his bowl and she sits next to him. Probably a little too close but he doesnât say anything. They finish their treat and place their bowls on the coffee table.
Jennifer stands then, âIâm gonna go to bed.â
âAlright, goodnight, princess. See you in the morning,â Steve says to her.
Chloe calls a goodnight out as Jennifer retreats to her bedroom.
Once itâs safe, Chloe cuddles up to Steve. Rests her head on his chest. He wraps an arm around her, pulls her tighter. Steve used to pass out during movies, before he had Chloe clinging to him towards the end.
The credits roll. He puts his hand on her head, scratches her scalp.Â
âIâm gonna clean these up,â he says, sitting up and grabbing their bowls.
âIâll be waiting,â she tells him before going into her room.
Steve carries the bowls to the kitchen. He hand washes them and leaves them to dry before checking if the front door is closed. Then he fills a glass of water and walks to Chloeâs bedroom, the bedroom that used to be his sons. And maybe thatâs sick of him to think of right now. But he ignores it, opens the door and walks in. Closing the door behind him, he turns to see Chloe lounged on her bed. She wears only her bra and underwear as she scrolls through her phone. But her eyes dart up, meet Steveâs and sheâs tossing her phone away. He stalks forward, crawls onto her bed, right between her legs and connects their lips.
The kiss is heady. Makes Steve feel alive, and all kinds of needy. Chloeâs hands move up into his hair as his cradle her jaw. The kiss is sweet, tastes like ice cream and impulsiveness. Tastes like hedonism, tastes like Steve giving in to great temptation. His hands move down, grazing his fingertips along the cleavage that spills out of her bra.Â
Chloe has a body that doesnât quit. Steveâs nearly obsessed with it, but heâs more obsessed with the way Chloe makes him feel like heâs in his twenties again. He does have a fascination with her breasts. Theyâre perky, rather large and super sensitive. All of Chloe is sensitive. He feels like he doesnât even have to do much to make her cum. Itâs not a mystery. Sheâs easy, so easy.Â
She kisses him back with urgency, and he realizes this is not the time to take things slow. He does have to work in the morning, after all. So he moves his hand behind Chloeâs back and unclasps her bra in one swift movement. He pulls back from the kiss, tugging his shirt off and then works on his pants and briefs next.Â
He pulls down her underwear and moves her to the middle of the bed. He sits upright, grabs his hard cock and slaps it against Chloeâs drenched pussy. Sheâs always impressively wet for him. At all times, it seems like.Â
âSuch a good girl for me,â he comments, smearing her wetness through her folds.Â
âYou make me so wet, daddy,â she admits and it should not make Steve as excited as it does when she calls him that.
But his cock twitches from him and he slaps the head of it against her clit.Â
âYouâre gonna have to be quiet for me,â he coos, âCan you do that, babygirl?â
Chloe gasps, âIâll try⊠you make me feel so good, thoughâŠâ
He growls before kissing her again, deepens it as he slides his cock lower and prods against her entrance. He knows his best bet is to kiss her while he penetrates her to keep her quiet. So he does just that, sinks into her tight, aching cunt while he kisses her intensely. Chloe whines against his lips, hands gripping onto his biceps as he sheathes his way inside.Â
This is so intoxicating, this chemistry between them. Itâs making Steve act all out of sorts. And he never saw it coming, hit him like a fucking anvil im a old cartoon because fuck, he likes Chloe. He really likes her. Likes her enough to sacrifice his marriage if he isnât more careful.
Itâs not the best marriage to begin with but Steve canât begin to imagine the legal hell Cindy would put him through. Especially if this secret came to light, heâd be done for. Taken for everything heâs worth.Â
That thought slips right through him as Chloe rolls her hips to meet Steveâs. Suddenly it doesn't matter when this gorgeous girl is milking his cock so easily.Â
Sure, heâd basically been beating off to fantasies of Chloe and shamefully, her photos on Facebook, since she started working for him. But those outfits⊠and Chloe was obvious. Steve knew she had a crush on him for years. He just hadnât been in such close proximity. He didnât have the temptation staring him down the face so clearly until she moved in.Â
He pulls back from the kiss to catch his breath, watches her closely so she doesnât moan too loudly, but Chloeâs a good girl. Takes direction well. She bites her lip as she gazes up at him, taking his cock so well and so quietly.
Steve canât help himself when he praises her, âSuch a good girl⊠huh? You a good girl for daddy?â
She keens, eyes rolling back as her hips jerk toward.Â
âYou like when I talk to you like that, huh?â Steve pushes, and he knows itâs dangerous, he just doesnât really care right now.Â
Chloe nods, all wide eyed and pretty. He feels fucking crazy, if heâs honest. He hasnât felt this horny in decades, heâs certain. Heâs addicted to it, canât stop himself.
âThatâs âcause youâre such a good girl. You like being told that, yeah? You need it?âÂ
âYes,â she gasps, âLike how you make me feel like a good girlâŠâ
Steve drops his head down to kiss her forehead, âYou are.â
âThank you, daddy,â she whimpers and Steve loses it.
He grips her hips, drills his cock hard and fast into her. Crashes his lips into hers once she starts getting loud. And she takes it like a champ, Steveâs noticed. He really shouldnât think about Cindy, he usually doesnât but she complains when they have sex. She always has. Always had him questioning if he was doing good and heâs never had that with another woman.
And Chloe seems to enjoy it, grabs onto his hair and pulls it while he pants into his mouth. Which only makes him fuck her harder, and she takes it. Grabs onto him like itâs the best fucking sheâs ever had. And he hopes it is.Â
He licks against Chloeâs tongue as he pounds into her and he can literally feel her cunt gripping him, squeezing him and pulsating as she cums. It shakes her whole body, her kisses get lazy but he keeps kissing her to muffle her cries.Â
Steveâs not too far behind her, and the way her pussy clenched around him makes it happen that much quicker.
But he makes a big mistake. He pulls out, he cuddles her tightly and he fucking falls asleep. In her bed.
