Mike turned the page of the paper, thought for a moment, and then folded the paper, looked Tara in the eye and very calmly, in an icy but very strong and firm voice said, "I am not your bitch." After a pause he continued with "And I am certainly not nor will I ever be your whore."
Those few words delivered in that tone coupled with the uncompromising look on his face told Tara that she had gone way over the line the night before. She was suddenly appalled by her behavior and became resolute in wanting to repair the damage. She stepped across the room to where he sat and dropped to her knees in front of him. She took ahold of one of his hands, looked him straight in the eye and said with all the sincerity her very soul had, "I am so sorry!" Tears started to flow down her cheeks as she started her apology.
"I don't know what happened to me last night. I got really carried away. I am so sorry. I never meant to hurt you. And I know I did. There is no excuse for it. None!" the apologies flooded out of her. Her regret was as real and sincere as anybody's could be. After a few minutes of Tara's non-stop apology, Mike began to melt. He reached up and started to stroke her hair. She looked up at him and saw the forgiveness she so desperately wanted beginning to dawn in his eyes. She smiled at him, grateful at the sign that she hadn't completed fucked up their lives. She kissed his hand several times, and then held it to her face.
"I love you so much. I never want to lose you. You are a great man, Michael. Can you ever forgive me?"
The overwhelming, heartfelt sincerity of Tara's non-stop apologies had melted Mike. "Yes, I can forgive you," he said as he took her hand and gently guided her to sit on his lap. She looked up at him as she sat down and tentatively leaned in to him to give him a kiss, not really certain that it would be accepted. Mike readily responded. After a few minutes of gentle, tender kissing, Tara snuggled against him and laid her head in his shoulder.
"I don't know what got into me last night," Tara began again as much as anything to explain things to herself as much or more as to Mike. "It was so damned hot and sexy having you naked in front of my friends. You are a very attractive man, Mike, in case you didn't know it." Vanity wasn't one of Mike's strong suits so he didn't know or much care how attractive he was, so long as Tara found him attractive.
"Maybe it was the Mai Tais. Well, maybe part of it was the Mai Tias," Tara continued and then stopped herself. "I'm not making excuses. I am just so proud that you are my husband. You're simply as nice of a guy that any girl could want and you are a hotty, like it not!" Tara continued with a touch of humor entering her voice now that the tension was broken.
"You're not so bad yourself, you know," Mike responded as his hand started fondling Tara's breast under the flimsy cloth. Her nipple responded instantly and became rock hard. She physically craved him when she woke up from the evening before but now had an emotional craving to be with her husband that was much stronger. She looked at him with her 'come take me' look. Mike didn't need any more encouragement. He put his hand on the back of her head, brought her mouth to his and kissed her deeply, passionately, thrusting his tongue deep into her mouth. She could feel his cock get hard as their passionate kissing continued. She wanted him. He wanted in some primal way to reclaim his woman and she was very willing to be reclaimed. After a few minutes, she took his shirt off and started kissing his chest. Quickly, he stood her up and took off the skimpy shirt she was wearing, revealing her beautiful, naked body. He held her close to him with one hand as his other hand groped her bare, firm breasts. She started to unsnap and unzip his pants but struggled with it as he took more control of her body. Soon his hand went diving between her legs rubbing her shaved pubic area. She swooned as he entered her wet pussy with one finger, and then quickly a second finger.
