was completed, I hired her team to clean the entire house, furnish the main level and even stock the refrigerator for our arrival. Movers brought over the contents of my bedroom and I brought over some of Josie’s things this afternoon so we could spend the night.
Our first night in our new house.
She oohs and aahs her way through the entire first floor and up to the second. After we finish touring the whole house, we end up back in the living room looking out at the backyard. It’s dark so it’s hard to make out the river but you can just see the moonlight glinting off the water.
The place was renovated by the previous owners but I have every intention of customizing everything to our own tastes. This will be the house where our lives unfold, where we make our future children, where we make our memories. I want it to be perfect. When I tell her that, she kisses me again.
“You’re here. I’m here. It’s already perfect.”
I can’t argue with that.

When I lead her back up to the master bedroom, Josie turns to me with a wicked look. She was surprised earlier when she saw that it was already furnished. My bed looks slightly too small for the room so we’ll definitely need to buy new. But it works just fine for what I have in mind.
“I see what’s really going on here now. This is the real reason you’ve brought me here.” She wags her finger at me and the prim gesture instantly makes me hot.
“What do you mean? It’s our house so we can do whatever we want.”
I pull her coat off and it falls to the floor at her feet. Mine lands next to it. Then I start unbuttoning my shirt casually. Josie reaches behind her and unzips her dress and then lets that fall to the floor, too. After shucking out of my shirt, I circle behind to help her take off her bra.
“What do you think we should do our first night in our new place alone, sweetheart? In our new place where there’s no one downstairs to hear us.” I kiss the side of her neck.
“We could watch television.” She sighs as my lips move to her ear.
“Oops, I forgot to tell the movers to bring that.”
“Right. We could start decorating the place.” Her voice breaks when my fingers find her tight nipples. I roll them into tight points.
“I don’t feel like unpacking tonight.” My tongue dips into the shell of her ear and she shudders.
“Or you could stop teasing me and make love to me in our new room.”
I lift her and carry her to the bed. “Happy to oblige, my love.”
We fall on top of the covers in a tangle of limbs, kissing and touching everything we can reach. Josie cries out with abandon, shamelessly riding my fingers, her little cries exciting me until I’m so hard I could drill through the bed.
We’re finally free to make all the noise we want and I love it. When I finally pull her panties off with my teeth, I can tell she’s already on the edge. Unable to wait any longer, I pull her beneath me and thrust hard.
It barely takes two strokes before she comes, her loud scream pulling me into ecstasy with her.
I roll over and gather her into my arms. Facing each other, we rest quietly until we’ve both caught our breath. I can’t believe this is my life and that we can do this whenever we want. It feels like a dream and I take a moment to be grateful.
Then Josie’s stomach growls loudly. Her eyes widen and we both burst out laughing.
After that, I take pity on my poor, overworked baby and we indulge in a naked midnight snack. Rissa left sandwich fixings and an assortment of fruits and cold pasta salads for us to choose from. There’s also wine and champagne. Finn wasn’t kidding when he said the woman was thorough.
We share a glass and toast our new home.
Then suddenly Josie looks over at me. “I almost forgot. I have a surprise for you, too.”
After I show her the clothes I brought for her, she changes into sweats and a T-shirt and then puts her coat back on. She grabs the car keys from the kitchen counter and I watch from the doorway as she retrieves a large wrapped canvas from the trunk.
“When did you put that in there?”
“This morning. You’re not the only one who
