Life on the Line

I did not need to be told twice. "We gotta run! We have been found!" He yelled. I looked at Gary and rushed for the door. He dropped the phone and grabbed his gun from the table, and ran with me outside to our car. He slipped into the driver's seat and slammed the gear shifter to drive, and floored it out of the open garage door. We were running for our lives.

************

The sun was shining hot in the Arizona sky. Victoria was out piddling in what garden they had. She loved her flowers but hated the heat. She would rather be up north where she could enjoy the snow and visit her family. She loved her family and was very close with them. Gary and Victoria had been married for a little over 2 years, and it was a wonderful life. Gary had a good job as a building inspector and was on a job. Victoria was just there with him because that's where the job had taken them. She didn't have to work because he made good money. She was sometimes very lonely due to his long work hours. Being a company owner had its perks and downfalls. Victoria didn't have many friends, and she rarely spoke to them. Gary didn't have time for a social life as his job took up most of his time. Being a housewife meant staying home and cleaning and cooking and taking care of the house. She busied herself in the garden until she heard the timer sound from the kitchen. She had put a roast in the oven, and it was time to take it out.

She put the oven mitts on and opened the oven. The aroma of the roast wafted from the pan. She pulled it out and sat it on top of the stove. She lifted the lid and checked on the cut potatoes and carrots to see if they were done. She smiled and pierced the roast with a knife and then sliced it. "Perfect," she whispered. She put the lid back onto the pan and turned the oven off. It was almost time for Gary to come home. She wanted dinner to be done when he got home. She went into the dining room and got two plates, two cups, and two sets of silverware. She reached into the cupboard and found two wine glasses. She set the glasses down and went to get a bottle of red wine. Red wine always went well with meats. She went to get a corkscrew for the bottle and grabbed a bucket and some ice to chill it. She wanted tonight to be special. It was a special occasion. In the refrigerator sat a strawberry cheesecake she had made, and she couldn't wait to dig into it. It was their favorite dessert. It was their 2 year wedding anniversary and she had wanted to do something special.

It was getting dark outside, and she could see the street lights flicker on. She went upstairs to their bedroom to change from her daily clothes into her sexy short black dress with a low-cut front. Being 24 and good-looking had its perks. Victoria was slim and had a short cropped cut just above her shoulders blonde hair with striking blue eyes. She looked good. With a quick glance in the mirror, she grabbed her lip-gloss and applied a light coat and put a light dapple of green eyeshadow topped with a coat of mascara. She ran her hands through her hair and walked back downstairs.

She turned the stereo on and had some light romantic music playing. She had the mood set. All she needed was her husband to come home. She went into the kitchen and put a portion on each plate, and brought it to the table. She lit the candles she had placed on the table as well. Just as she blew out the match, she saw headlights flashing as they turned into the driveway. Her heart skipped a beat. She wanted everything to go well tonight. She walked to the door and opened it just as he was reaching for the door handle. Gary stopped and looked up to see his wife standing there with a sexy smile on her face and propping herself against the door frame. With a sexy smile, she leaned in for a slow kiss. Gary put down his briefcase and leaned in for the kiss. Their lips touched each others and it was as if a bomb was going off. The sparks that were felt in the kiss were magical. Gary slipped his hand to the back of her neck and deepened the kiss. She could feel his manhood growing while she pressed up against his body. She let him kiss her until they both pulled apart, gasping for breath. She took a step back from him and smiled at him.

He stood there and took his wife in. She looked absolutely amazing. It smelled wonderful in the house. The smell wafted to his noise, and his stomach instantly growled. "Hungry?," she asked. "Starving," he answered. He took a step inside the door and was instantly amazed. He wondered how on earth he had been able to marry such an amazing woman. As he walked into the living room, he could hear the music playing. He then slowly made his way to the dining table where an amazing dinner awaited him. The roast that sat upon the plate was still steaming, and the vegetables were perfectly placed. "Go upstairs and change so we can enjoy this dinner," Victoria said. "Okay, babe." He said.

He turned on his heal and raced to the bedroom to quickly clean up and change. She had laid out some clothes on the bed for him. He quickly went into the bathroom and started the shower. He raced to wash his body and hair. He turned off the water and reached for a towel. Water wash dripping into his eyes and grabbed it and dried the water from his face. He ran from the bathroom and quickly put on his clothes. It was a pair of black slacks, a button-down red shirt, and a pair of boxer briefs. Once he had his outfit on, he combed his wet hair and looked to make sure he looked good and smiled at himself in the mirror and headed to the dining room.

In the dining room, Victoria was leaned against the table with her legs crossed out in front of her. The room smelled of the roast on the plate and her perfume. She looked good enough to eat. The thought that crossed his mind was to forgo dinner and have her first. The thought quickly faded as she walked over and gave him a kiss on his lips. She led him to his chair after she kissed him. "dinner looks amazing!, Gary said. "Well sit down so we can enjoy it." Victoria smiled as she said this. They sat down across from each other and began to eat. With the soft music playing in the background they ate. Victoria pulled the wine from the ice bucket and poured each of them a glass. They toasted to another year of marriage. After a few sips of wine Gary pulled a small box from his pocket. He reached over and took Victoria's hands in his. "You mean everything to me. You are light to my darkness, the sunshine after a storm and the love of my life. I hope that we will continue to have this perfect love as we go through this life together." he said.

Victoria let go of his hands to open the little black box that he handed to her. She looked at him and tried to see if there was some hint as to what was in the box. She opened the box slowly and what stared at her was a beautiful gold necklace with a heart hanging from the chain. It was encrusted with rubies and amethyst. It was beautiful. It sparkled when the light shown upon it. Victoria didn't know what to say. She just looked at it with awe. When she looked up at him, he had a big smile on his face. She took a moment to answer. "It is the most beautiful piece I have ever seen. "she exclaimed. "I had to get something that you will treasure for a long time," he said.

She sat back and admired the necklace. She got up from her chair and walked over the the cabinet that held the nice dishware. She pulled a small black box out and handed it to Gary. He looked at her and looked at the box again. He opened the box and inside was a pair of diamond cufflinks. His mouth dropped open. It was now his turn to be speechless. On the cufflinks was a beautiful diamond surrounded by rubies. It was solid gold and was shaped like a teardrop. "I thought you might like them," Victoria smiled as she said this. " Oh yes, they are absolutely gorgeous. They will go perfectly with my suits." he said. Victoria smiled to herself. She had done a perfect job in purchasing them. She walked back over to her chair and sat down, She studied him while he studied her. The night was off to a perfect start. "Are you ready for dessert?" she asked. Gary gave her an evil grin. Oh yeah, he was ready alright.

Victoria got up once again and slipped into the kitchen and grabbed two plates and the cheese cake from the refrigerator. It had set wonderfully. The strawberry topping was perfectly rolling off the top and dripping down the sides. She carefully picked it up and carried all the items to the dining room table. "Oh wow, that looks delicious!" Gary gushed. She took the knife and cut him a slice from it. She accidently got some strawberry topping on her fingers and absently put her finger in her mouth and began sucking it from from her finger. Gary watched as she did this and could not help but thinking some dirty thoughts. Victoria looked up from what she was doing and noticed that Gary was looking at her hungrily. She quickly pulled her finger from her mouth and handed him the plate. She smiled faintly as she did. Her hand brushed against his hand and she locked eyes with him. His pupils dilated and he looked hungry. He hungry for her.

Victoria gasped and looked away. Her blood began to boil at the look he was giving her. She blushed as she looked away. Gary noticed her blush and it was like a rocket shot to his manhood and he became aroused even more than he wanted to admit. She looked beautiful. The way her hair fell across her face and eyes as she blushed. She distracted herself by cutting a sliced of cake for herself. She put the slice on her plate and licked the knife that she had cut with. Gary about fell from his chair as she did this. It was as if she was teasing him. Wanting him to suffer from her seductive actions. She was not meaning to, but it was driving him crazy. He wanted her. He wanted her in his arms touching every inch of her. They ate their cake while giving each other seductive looks. With every second they sat at the table teasing each other it was like a fuse was being lit. Sparks were flying even though they were not touching each other. The last bite for them was like the end to a race. The last bit e was taken and Victoria got up from her chair and walked over to him and leaned over to pick up his plate and he stopped her. He placed his hand on her arm and lightly pulled her down for a heated kiss. She melted down into his lap. He wrapped his arms around her waist and deepened his kiss. He could feel her heartbeat rise as he kissed her and she cold feel his manhood rising again her backside.

He lifted her up bridal style and carried her to their bedroom. He laid her on the bed and leaned across her and began kissing her neck and trialed the kiss down to her ample breast. She laid her hands on the back of his neck and pressed her self up to meet his kisses. Her head was thrown back against the bed and he massaged her inner thighs as he sent kisses back up to her full lips.
