EXTRACT FOR
Hot and Steamy: Sex On Fire
(Darren G. Burton)

It was Sunday Morning. Ruby's birthday.

Jacob had made her breakfast in bed, after which Ruby had become quite amorous and wanted sex. For the first time ever Jacob refused, claiming he had plans for her today and he'd make love to her later. Naturally she was a bit confused and disappointed that he'd turned her down. Her discontent was quickly forgotten when he returned to the bedroom bearing gifts of perfume and jewellery. On top of that he produced plane tickets for a trip to The Maldives at the end of the month.

After she'd opened her gifts, Jacob said, "I want you to take a shower now and give everything a good shave. And just wear your white silk robe when you get out. Nothing else."

Ruby smiled lewdly. "So you do want sex."

Jacob didn't answer. In another half an hour her next birthday present would arrive.

While she showered Jacob busied himself tidying up the living room. He removed the cushions from the couch and draped a red throw rug over it. Then he moved one of the armchairs into a position where he'd get a good view. Next he went to a cupboard in the hallway and got out his Canon DSLR camera and Speedlite flash. After adjusting a few settings and testing that the flash batteries were fully charged, he placed the camera on a table beside the chair and figured he was ready.

It was now almost ten AM. Jacob went back into the bedroom to check on his wife. He found her dressed in the robe just as he'd requested. Ruby was reclining on the bed, pillows stuffed behind her head, waiting for him.

"Come into the lounge room," he said with a smile.

Ruby returned his smile and sat up. "You don't want to do it in here?"

She followed him into the living room and Jacob indicated for her to sit on the couch. No sooner had she got comfortable and there was a knock on the front door. Jacob went to answer it. Once more Ruby had a confused look on her face.

Jacob opened the door to see a tall, lean, dark-haired man standing there dressed simply in blue jeans and a white T-shirt. The short sleeves of the shirt were stretched tight over his bulging biceps.

"Rick?" Jacob said. The man nodded and they shook hands.

When Jacob entered the living room with good looking Rick in tow, Ruby was first surprised, then puzzled again. Jacob motioned for Rick to sit on the couch beside his wife while he took his seat in the armchair.

"Rick is your other present I was telling you about," Jacob explained.

"You got me a man?" Ruby was still perplexed, but there was now a gleam of excitement in her emerald green eyes.

"Not just any man. Rick's a professional at what he does." Jacob smiled. "If you know what I mean?"
