Posted by Kim on 11/22/2001, 7:52 pm Never before, no matter how much she wanted to be with Mac, had she initiated their lovemaking. Dara saw the night before how angry and hurt Mac had been by the television report, knowing that most of his distress was on her behalf and due to how the report depicted their love. The couple said very few words for the remainder of the night and later Dara had felt Mac toss and turn in the bed until early in the morning. Nothing could really take away the momentary pain experienced that night, but Dara wanted to show Mac that the report or whatever Felicia said or could do would not affect what she felt for him. Tightly gripping the sheets, Mac held in a groan as Dara's warm body moved over his. Slowly, methodically and with incredible tenderness, Dara completely focused on giving Mac pleasure. Only towards the end of their lovemaking after their bodies had became one did Dara urge Mac to join her in an intimate dance that spiraled them both towards ecstasy. ~~~~*~~~~~~ Long ago Marcus Taggert first admired Dara's skill as a district attorney, but today watching her give her closing argument in Moreno's trial, he believed he had witnessed her best professional work. Dara's closing argument was perfect, emphasizing all of the strengths of her case and skewing the defense's strained attempts at generating reasonable doubt. When countering the defense team's disparaging comments regarding the character of key prosecution witnesses, Dara deftly reminded the jury of Moreno's character and what it said about him that these witnesses were close associates of his. Yep, Taggert thought, Dara ought to be pretty proud of herself today. Or she would be if everyone weren't talking about that news report broadcast. Understanding Dara as he did Taggert knew that she despised having her private life made public and that news report was a doozy. He wasn't going to bring it up first but he would be there for her if she wanted to talk about it. Leaving his seat in the rear of the courtroom Taggert quickly strode to the prosecution's table just at the court adjourned for lunch. "You did good today," he praised Dara, gently touched her arm. "I need to go out now and get some champagne to celebrate. Want to come along with me?" "Oh no." Dara shook her head as she flashed an incredibly attractive smile. "I'm not going to jinx this by getting overconfident. How about going to lunch instead?" "I haven't had a better offer today." Placing his hand at Dara's waist, Taggert escorted her from the courtroom and the two friends enjoyed their lunch date.
Mac was wavering in that zone between deep sleep and consciousness, resisting the urge to open his eyes and awaken. After viewing channel 7's scathing report on his relationship with Dara, he spent the remainder of the night in a fitful restless sleep. However now, after sleeping only a few hours, Mac knew that he was dreaming because of the warm, pleasant sensation he was experiencing, and he wanted to prolong it as long as possible. Light, feathery kisses and the tinge of a warm breath moved from his face to his neck to his chest. For some time two soft hands gently played with his curly hair and caressed his face. Now they teased him, sliding to his shoulders and chest lightly touching him. Instinctively he reached out with his right hand but Dara's quickly reached up to restrict his movement. As his eyes started to flutter open Dara moved her body over Mac's and he heard her whisper into his ear, "Don't move. Let me do this, let me make love to you."
