to occupy myself.”
    Deo lifted up so Allie could free her and then spread her legs as Allie settled between them. She closed her eyes and stroked Allie’s hair, her mind clear and mercifully free of memory or regret. She whispered a silent thank you as Allie took her into her mouth.

    “What are you doing to me,” Bri moaned.
    Carre kissed her as she languorously stroked between Bri’s trembling thighs. “I’m making you feel as good as you just made me feel.”
    “I’m going to explode, babe.” Bri twisted in Carre’s arms, her mouth against Carre’s neck as every fiber in her body tightened. “Feels so good. I’m gonna…oh yeah I’m gonna—”
    “Mmm. You feel so good.” Carre relaxed her grip on Bri’s turgid clit and vibrated her fingers lightly. “Too good to let it end now.”
    “I gotta, babe,” Bri pleaded desperately. “Really, I’m hurtin’. I gotta.”
    Carre sucked on Bri’s lower lip and teased her tongue in and out of Bri’s mouth. “I love when you get like this. So hard. So freakin’ wet.” She grasped Bri’s hair and tilted her head back so she could nip down the center of her throat. “I love to make you come.”
    Bri choked trying to catch her breath. “Please I’m right there, babe. If you just, oh God… oh God…”
    “I know, baby,” Carre whispered, stroking again, too slowly and too lightly to make Bri come. “I know what you need.”
    Bri tried to keep her eyes open but the terrible wanting in her belly was too much to hold. “I love you so much.”
    “I love you.”
    “No one else,” Bri gasped, her body shaking with a series of bone wracking shudders.
    “I know baby,” Carre whispered, milking her in long firm strokes. “You come now, baby. You come.”
    Bri’s eyes rolled back in her head and she clutched Carre as if she were drowning and Carre was all that stood between her and oblivion. “ Fuck! ”
    Laughing, Carre wrapped her legs around Bri and held her sweat-streaked face to her breast. “God, you are so sexy.”
    “Trying to kill me,” Bri muttered, still quaking. “Think maybe you did kill me.”
    “You know I have to go back to school in six weeks.” Carre caressed Bri’s shoulders. “I don’t want you to forget who you belong to.”
    Bri opened her eyes and struggled to focus. Her vision was still blurry but clear enough for her to make out the scared look on Carre’s face. Bri’s heart plummeted when she realized that she was the cause of that fear. “I’ve only ever loved you. The only thing I’m gonna do while you’re gone is count the minutes until you come back.” She pushed herself up on both arms and waited until Carre looked into her face. “I’m only ever going to love you.”
    “Me too.” Carre wrapped her arms around Bri’s shoulders and pulled her down until Bri’s body covered hers. She pressed her face to Bri’s neck. “Only ever you.”

    “I’m awake,” Tory said as the bedroom door opened and a sliver of light slanted in from the hall. “You can turn the light on.”
    “That’s okay,” Reese replied. “I’ll just…should I come to bed?”
    Tory closed her eyes for an instant, the swift pain of the unthinkable question making her breathless. She pushed the sheets aside, making room. “Of course.”
    Reese undressed in the dark and a moment later, settled onto the bed. She lay on her back, her arms by her side. When she spoke, her voice was hollow and flat. “I’m sorry.”
    “For what, darling?” Tory inched closer and lay on her side facing Reese. She lightly placed her hand in the center of Reese’s abdomen. Reese’s skin was cool, and her muscles felt stretched tight over bones that were far too prominent. “You need to tell me, because I can’t help you if you don’t.”
    Reese gripped the sheets, her body rigid. “I shouldn’t have left like I did tonight.”
    Tory waited until the silence stretched so thin she feared the air would shatter like glass. “Why did
