My car was dead, so I called a cab. That's how it began. The driver who picked me up was attractive, clean shaven, and well dressed. As we headed toward my home, he made polite conversation. I was a little surprised by his intellect and manners, as most of the drivers I had seen before had seemed surly and unkempt. I looked at him more closely from the back seat, and my first impression was confirmed. He was very neat, meticulously groomed, and had a beautiful olive complexion with black hair and dark, intense eyes. Sexy, I remember thinking. When I reached my destination, I got out, but did glance back for a final view. To my surprise, he was staring at me intently. I waved politely as I walked away.
A couple of days later, I was pleasantly surprised when he picked me up again. This time, before he let me out, he gave me a business card and asked me to call him directly if I needed a ride. A couple of days later, I did, only to be disappointed when he called me back to explain that he was on the opposite side of the city, and was sending someone else to get me. I chided myself that I had misinterpreted his stare. Clearly, he had simply determined that I was a good fare.
Two days later, he picked me up again, and to my great surprise, mentioned that he was disappointed when he had heard the dispatcher assign my address to other drivers the prior couple of days. I explained that I had not wanted to disturb him so had called the switchboard. He turned around in the seat completely and looked at me, and said, "I would like for you to call me if you need a ride, but I would also like for you to call me just to talk." My heart jumped, and I kind of hoped he did not see how excited I was by his invitation.
The next day, I did call, and we chatted for a while and decided to go for coffee that evening. As we talked, I explained that I had been separated from my husband for eleven months, and he explained that he was Muslim, adhered to very strict beliefs, and had not dated in three years. We ended up going to my place to talk, and I opened a bottle of wine, which he declined to share. We talked for hours, laughed, and cried, and the chemistry between us was undeniable. After a couple of hours, he reached over, grabbed the wine bottle, and said, "Tonight, I don't care about right and wrong. I am happy. I want to share this with you, " and he took a drink."
We had been sitting on the floor at a low table across from each other, and in spite of the energy between us, it surprised me when he suddenly reached over and wrapped his arm around my shoulder and pulled me close. He kissed me passionately, thrusting his tongue deep into my mouth, and when it ended, I was breathless. He looked directly into my eyes and wrapped his fingers in my hair, and pulled me to him again, and when he pushed his tongue into my mouth this time, it was again demanding and invasive, but only for a moment. Then, he began to pull it out, stopping to linger slowly across my lips, first the top one, then the bottom. When it ended, I felt empty and ached, and wanted him back in my mouth again.
He peered at me intently, and I realized that he was gauging my response. I leaned toward him, desperately wanting to feel connected again. This time, he pulled my body close and I felt his hands grip my shoulders tightly as he began to kiss and probe with his tongue- my lips, my ears, my neck. He wrapped one arm around my back, pressing my chest into his, and held my head with his other hand still wrapped in my hair. I felt trapped in his grasp and a dull ache deep inside my belly begin to intensify,
He continued his assault on my senses as he stripped me of my sweater. He licked and kissed and sucked and bit. He moved from my ears and mouth to my neck, and the sensations of his wet, hot tongue pushing, followed by pinching, erotic suction, and then actual pain from his teeth in my flesh were maddening. He stopped, and backed away for a moment, and as I looked at him, startled by the abrupt cessation, he peeled his shirt off and tossed it aside. I stared at his arms and chest...thick, muscled, and strong, and I willingly melted against him when he grabbed my shoulders and pulled me close again.
