The Welcome Home
by @NobleFlameReturning from a week-long trial, a lawyer finds his wife asleep and naked, expecting him. He is consumed by a need to worship her, captivated by every sound and sensation she makes, a man utterly enslaved by a mad love.
MEET THE CHARACTERS
David
A 49-year-old trial lawyer with sharp, intelligent eyes that soften only for her, and broad shoulders that carry the weight of long weeks in court. He moves with a quiet intensity, his hands—capable of dissecting legal briefs or tracing the curve of her spine—always seeking the warmth of her skin. The faint scent of his cedar cologne and late-night coffee clings to his suit, a testament to the distance he hates to put between them.
Tera
A 43-year-old legal analyst with a wild tumble of dark hair and a smile that caught him mid-argument on their first meeting. She sleeps naked, confident in her skin and in his return, her body a landscape of gentle curves he maps nightly in his dreams. There's a playful intelligence in her gaze, and when she laughs, it's a sound he'd cross any courtroom to hear again.
