As he opens the gift, I clasp my hands and hold them under my chin.
I hope he loves it.
The first thing he sees when he moves the tissue paper to the side are the plane tickets to Japan and a brief outline of what we’re going to do.
“We’re going to Japan?”
“Yes. You keep talking about taking me, so I thought I’d schedule it. If you don’t like something we can change it,” I ramble.
He reaches out and sets his hand on my thigh. “No, it’s a fantastic idea.”
“There’s more.”
When Kai moves his hand, I feel the loss of his touch, and I hate it.
He moves the piece of paper and sees the next gift. I watch as my stoic husband freezes and shock covers his face.
After a few moments of silence I break. “Do you love it?”
“You’re having a custom sword done,” he says slowly. “By one of the best, for me.”
“You get to watch it happen too.”
Kai sets the papers back in the box and sets it off to the side.
“Do you like it?”
He doesn’t verbally respond but reaches out and grabs me. Pulling me into his lap.
I wrap my arms around his neck as his hands run along my body.
“Do I like it?” he scoffs. “No, I fucking love it, and I’m pissed that people will be showing up any time for Christmas when all I want to do is lay you down and make love to you.”
I lean in and kiss him. When I start to pull away, I make sure I bite his lip, making him growl.
“Later,” I whisper.
Kai opens his mouth to say something but is cut off by the doorbell.
“Horrible timing,” he murmurs, making me laugh.
I roll off his lap and stand. “Go let our friends in while I clean this up.”
“Yes, wife.”
Right as he’s about to leave the room, I call out, “Kai.”
He pauses and looks over his shoulder at me. “Be nice today, and I might have another surprise for you.”
“Tease.” He shakes his head. “I’ll show you nice.”
I can’t help but chuckle as he walks away. Today’s going to be a great day. I just know it.

Pullingon my pants to adjust my dick, I head toward the door.
Before I answer it, I take a deep breath.
