The Predicament (The Proposition #3.5) by Katie Ashley Read Free Book Online

living room floor, Casey had a hard time leaving. With a roaring fire going and Chinese takeout littering the coffee table, the room was so inviting, especially with baby chatter echoing off the walls. Aidan and Emma lounged on the couch in their most comfortable sweats and yoga pants.
    But she managed to pull herself together and give Olivia a kiss goodbye. The moment she had arrived back home, she’d torn up the stairs and started a frenzy of preparation. One aspect was changing into a comfortable piece of lingerie. While the silk nightie was sexy, it also gave her room to breathe. She sure as hell wasn’t going for anything like the nurse’s costume from the other night.
    She had just finished lighting the last of the candles lining the floor along the bedroom walls when she heard Nate’s car pull in the driveway.
    After the garage door shut, Nate called, “Babe?”
    “I’m upstairs.”
    Nate appeared in the doorway with his gym bag slung over his shoulder. Thankfully, he’d taken the time to shower and change before coming home. Not that she didn’t enjoy when he was a sweaty mess. She just preferred being the one to make him perspire.
    Although what she had done to their bedroom was a surprise, their sexdate was not. After her coffee date, she had told him that she was planning time for them to be alone.
    At the sight of the bedroom illuminated in candlelight, Nate’s eyes widened. “Wow, you really went all out.”
    She crossed the room to stand in front of him. “I hope you don’t mind, but I wanted us to try something a little different today.”
    Pulling her into his arms, he smiled down at her. “Of course I don’t mind.”
    “Even if it seems a little…strange?”
    Nate chuckled. “Should I be scared?”
    Casey grinned. “Of course not.” Tilting her head at him, she asked, “Have you ever heard of Tantric sex?”
    “The ancient Indian practice of using energy through sex,” he rattled, sounding like a textbook.
    “I should have known you would know, Mr. Smarty Pants.”
    “You know you love my big brain,” Nate teased.
    Nodding, Casey said, “Oh yes, it’s my second favorite big body part of yours.”
    As Nate nuzzled her neck, he said, “Remind me what your favorite one is.”
    “Mmm, your big ass feet.”
    Her smart answer was rewarded with a resounding smack on the ass. “Fine, fine. You’re fantastically huge dick.”
    “That is more like it.”
    Casey pushed herself out of Nate’s arms. “Okay enough of that for now. We need to get busy.”
    An amused look twinkled in Nate’s dark eyes. “I thought we were.”
    Wagging a finger at him, Casey said, “Today is all about Tantric.”
    “Yes ma’am.” After giving her a mock salute, he asked, “Where do we start?”
    “With some dancing.” Picking up the remote to the iHome, she turned on a little T.I. to get the blood really pumping.
    Tilting his head, Nate eyed her curiously. “What? I’m supposed to dance like I’m at a club?” he questioned.
    “No. It’s like this. Stand with your legs hip-length apart.”
    Nate’s brows furrowed in confusion. “How am I going to dance like that?”
    “Like this.” Casey then illustrated what she had seen in the book, which was basically a full body shake of your arms, legs, and ass. When the corners of Nate’s lips turned up, she demanded, “What?”
    “I was just thinking if I saw one of my patients doing this I would swear they were having convulsions.”
    She momentarily stopped shaking to smack Nate’s arm. “Not funny.” Jerking her chin at him, she said, “Come on.”
    Rolling his eyes, Nate began to mimic her movements. After a few seconds, he asked, “Exactly why are we doing this?”
    “It’s supposed to let out all the tension in our body. Once the tension is gone, we can allow more pleasure in,” she replied.
    “And how long does it take to achieve that?”
    “Just a minute.”
    “Thank God.”
    After a minute had passed, Casey turned the music from
