SEBASTIAN looked at the time. It wasn’t quite midnight. That meant Alexandra could still be awake. She hadn’t been gone for a full twenty-four hours yet and he was already missing her. Having her around the past several days made him hopeful. Maybe they had a chance.

Not caring about how it would come across, he found her number in his cell phone contact list and dialed it into his cordless phone.

“Hello?” Alexandra answered.

“Hi. It’s Bash. Still up?”

“Hey. Yes.”

“How was your flight?”

“It was smooth sailing. I’m so glad you called, Bash. I was just about to go back to sleep.”

“Back to sleep?”

“Yes. Never mind it’s a long story. It’s got to be pretty late over there.”

“It’s close to one a.m.”

“How are you?”

“I’m good…I was thinking about you.”

Alexandra let out a sleepy moan. “You were?”

Sebastian turned and stretched out on his side as he spoke. “Yes.”

“Do you miss me yet?” she asked in a sultry voice.

“I sure do.”

“Me too…” she drifted off for a moment, then asked, “I wish you could be here…or I could be there.”

“Yeah?”

“Sure. That way I wouldn’t have to do what I’m doing right now.” Her voice was playful, husky. Sebastian could only imagine what she was up to.

“What’s that?”

“Do you really want to know?”

“Tell me.”

“Well,” she said with a low, teasing giggle. “I’ve just put you on speakerphone…and I’m picturing you between my legs as I touch myself.”

“Fuck,” Sebastian groaned. That admission made him hard as a rock in no time. “You’re full of surprises, aren’t you?”

“Only until you know how much I enjoy your hands on my body…and other parts of you too.”

Sebastian didn’t know how to reply. He was just glad she could be that open with him, and could send his mind and body reeling from hundreds of miles away.

“You there, Bash?” She called to him.

“Yes. I am. Tell me what you’re doing to yourself, Alexandra.” He reached a hand into his underwear and waited for her answer.

She moaned deeply and told him, “I’m imagining you feasting on me, baby. Sliding your tongue deep inside me…mmmm…tell me what you’d do to me, Bash. I miss your hands on me.”

“Fuck, I miss touching you too. I’d bury my face between your legs and taste every part of you.”

She groaned and growled. Alexandra was into it now, from the sounds of it. Her breath against the phone told him her mind was focused in on her need.

“Fuck, babe,” he groaned, cursing the distance, but satisfied she was finding her pleasure from just his voice. “How wet are you right now?”

“I’m so wet for you,” she moaned absently.

Sebastian wrapped his hand around his shaft, ready now to indulge along with her. “Christ, I’d give anything to be inside you. What are you doing now?”

“Mmmm. I just slipped three fingers deep inside, baby. Trying to remember how good you make me feel.”

“Oh fuck.” Sebastian stroked along his shaft, visualizing what Alexandra looked like in her bed, writhing against the sheets as she brought herself closer to the edge. “I would flip you so you’re on top of me, riding me hard while I grip your hips and sink you deeper on my shaft.”

“Yes, baby,” she cried, her breathing ragged now. The sound of her voice made Sebastian fairly certain she was seconds away from her peak.

“Come for me, Alexandra.”

“Oh God, Bash.”

“That’s it. Come all over my thick shaft. If I was there I’d lift you off me after you come and bury my head between your legs again. I’d lick you clean and taste your sweetness.”

She moaned and whimpered through her climax, and after a few long seconds of heavy breathing, the phone went quiet.

“Everything okay over there?” he asked.

“Better than okay,” she whispered. “I can sleep now.”

“Good,” he said with a chuckle.

“What about you?”

“I’ll manage,” he told her. “I’m glad you feel better.”

“I do.”

“Get some sleep. We’ll talk soon.”

“Are you sure?”

“Positive. Good night, Alexandra.”

“Good night, Bash.”
