Warmest/3/16

Tony stretched; as he resisted getting out of bed. He recalled the day; and smiled. His LeeAnn was returning today. The beautiful woman that fed his sexual fantasies and made them realities, would warm his bed tonight. He flexed his arms and thumped his abs, thinking of the last time they had been together. She had exploded in his arms and his smile was satisfied and feral as he remembered.
Five nights he had been without the sultry laugh and caressing eyes that so boldly inspected him. When she thought; he wasn't looking, she gave him these hungry, clothes stripping, intense stares. Tony like to have her lusting for him, but it was puzzling she wouldn't explain her reasons. A mystery.
Today he had work to do. His work- out took an hour, shower, then attending to a few manly duties, breakfast and then an hour's meditation. As Tony left the bedroom and headed for his quiet, meditation room, he laughed at the men who made off color jokes about Tantric sex. It was clear they had no idea; what could be done; when the mind and body were powerful and in shape. He was both.
Tony looked at her gift on the night stand. It was an expensive risk. The smooth gold collar with a sun and moon set in tiny diamonds, dangling from the polished edge.
He had thought about offering her a traditional collar, the leather and studded circle of humiliation. And then; he realized that she would only wear it when she was in his house. Tony wanted a daily reminder of who was in control of her mind and body. Every single second, minute, hour and day, heavily weighted emphasis for her to carry and feel; holding him in her mind, constantly.
He had the classic gold circle custom made, a fine piece of jewelry, that complemented her severe business suits and professional air. It was the symbolism that was most important to him. Not only was it a constant reminder to her, but a silent warning to knowledgeable men. She was his.

LeeAnn sat in the center airplane seat, her personal space invaded by arms and elbows of her large, masculine fellow passengers. She was as squashed as a cream filling between two cookie halves. She relaxed and thought of Tony, his salt and pepper hair and well exercised body; his fantastic way of loving her beyond her ability to cope. His knowing, dark and sexy stare that left her feeling exposed. She closed her eyes and willed the plane to fly faster. LeeAnn was working herself into a state of arousal.
Ever so slowly, the young man at the window seat experimentally sniffed the air. There was a scent he couldn't identify, but he could tell it came from her. Not unpleasant, just different and curious.
The man in the aisle seat was older and more experienced; he understood the tantalizing whiff of desire when he smelled it. Obviously, some bastard was a lucky man. The woman next to him a classic example of a lady; and he enjoyed her as a beautiful example of her sisterhood.
The cab brought LeeAnn to Tony's door. God, she couldn't wait to get his mouth on hers and feel his body under her hands. Desire strong enough to make her want to growl; as Tony often did to release the tension.
Tony answered the door, casually leaning across the opening. "Good morning. What are you selling today?" he conversationally blocked her from walking in.
