I sat in theof Woods's office and watched hin with a distributor that I had found for the clothing line in the clubhouse What we had was for an older crowd The ton Club weren't all fifty and above

He hadn't wanted er than a few minutes It had been teeks since the funeral and he was still clingy It was easing up each day, but he still neededsex more often than normal, and that was a whole lot of sex

Blaire had called and invited me over for lunch today at one That was Nate's nap ti we couldor showing up anywhere anymore Blaire orried about her and I was, too Woods still wouldn't talk about her

"Blaire has invited oing?" Normally I wouldn't have felt like I had to ask Woods's permission to eat lunch, but with his need for me to be close to him at all times, I wanted to check and make sure

He looked up from his contract and frowned I could see the sadness in his eyes and I almost wished I hadn't asked him and had just told Blaire no

"I'm sorry, Della"

I stood up "For what?"

"For o somewhere These past couple of weeks I've been needy, and I'm sorry I've done that to you"

I pulled his chair back and straddled his lap, then grabbed both of his shoulders "Do not apologize to me Not for that You neededone this tiot to be the one to hold your hand It was ize for that"

Woods grinned He hadn't grinned since before the accident He lifted his hand and traced o but I' if they're wet, or if I can get theet away froes your plans"

Laughing, I ju to see if you could get my panties wet, because I assure you that you could, but Blaire seemed to really want to do lunch"

Woods nodded "Go eat lunch with her I'll be fine"
