Chapter 18
Kit
“There,there.Youlike that, don’t you?” I scratched behind Cin’s ears, a soft purr my reward. Pumpkin opened his eyes and watched us from his perch on top of the coffee table. I chuckled and beckoned for the cat. “Come on, you know you want some of this.”
The cat laid his head back down and closed his eyes. Such indifference.
“I bet if it were Sully, you would have come right away.”
“Can you blame him?” Sully entered the living room, smiling. “Don’t you usually come right away with me too?”
I pulled a face at him, grabbed a cushion, and threw it at him. “Eew! That’s not what I’m talking about. You’re traumatizing the kids.”
With a groan, Sully plucked the cushion from the floor where it had fallen and sat beside me. “When will you stop referring to them as our kids?”
“Never. They’re our babies. Who knows? Maybe you’ll want another one too.”
“Not happening.”
“Hmm.”
“Kit, I’m serious. I find cat hair everywhere, and it’s bad enough listening to two cats sitting on the other side of the door when we’re having sex. They’d be louder if there were three of them.”
“They’re paying homage to our love.”
Sully stared at me, and I giggled. Cinnamon jumped down from the sofa and leaped onto the coffee table. She settled next to Pumpkin and licked the other cat’s ear.
“Is that a new word you learned?” Sully asked.
I nodded. “I have to admit that I was offended at first when you downloaded the app on my phone, but it’s fun learning new words.”
“Hmm, maybe I’ll make it a quiz, then.”
I crawled into his lap and straddled him. “Are you the teacher, and I’m the student?”
“Of course.”
I tugged on his lapels. “What happens if I fail?”
“I punish you.”
“A spanking?”
“How do you feel about writing lines?”
“Eh!” I swatted his arm and got off his lap. “Such a cruel teacher you are.”
“But I can be incredibly sweet too.”
Before I could take a step, Sully was on his feet, arms around my waist and nuzzling my neck.
“And what’s the price for you being incredibly sweet to me?”
He bit my earlobe. “You be a good little kitten for Master.”
“I’m already a good kitten.” I squirmed in his arms. “Sully, don’t start that. I know just being in my presence makes you horny, but my ass is still sore from last night, and I have to go.”
“No, stay.” He sucked on my neck. “I know how to make it better.”
