Chapter Four
Jamie
It was both a relief and a curse to see that Liz was seeing things my way. We stayed apart in the office, but once we made it home in the evenings, we tried to spend at least a few minutes talking and kissing.
Professional and personal lines—lines that I’d said we shouldn’t cross.
The problem was, I could see Liz at the office, every day, and as usual, she was stunning. Today she’d worn a knee-length dress, and her shapely legs were beautiful.
I paused at the end of the hallway, watching her. Amy was standing next to her, and they were looking at something on Liz’s computer screen. She glanced up at Amy, and the vision of her long neck twisting, and that automatic, happy smile on her face made something twist inside of me.
I wanted her—I couldn’t deny it.
I just couldn’t handle the thought of getting caught doing something “inappropriate” at the office when I’d been trying so hard to put up a respectable front.
But as Liz sat there with Amy and collaborated and smiled, she looked so fucking gorgeous, I couldn’t handle it anymore.
I retreated to my office and dialed her desk phone.
“Hello?” she said.
“This is Jamie,” I said. “I have something I’d like to go over with you.”
“What’s that?”
“Progress on the relationship app. Can you meet me in Conference Room East to discuss?”
“Um, sure,” she said. “When?”
“Right now.” I hung up.
My heart pounded with the excitement of what I was about to do. I left my office and walked down the hallway that led to Conference Room East. Another small hallway branched off to the wellness room, a place with a small sofa, a chair, a yoga mat, and a few free weights.
Nobody was around, and my cock was already half hard.
I saw Liz walk past toward Conference Room East, so I whispered her name.
She turned, a puzzled look on her face.
I beckoned her over, grinning. Her expression went from puzzled to intrigued, and her lips parted slightly. She followed me silently to the wellness room, and I locked the door behind us.
“Jamie, what are we doing—”
I didn’t allow her to finish the question. Already my lips were on hers, my hands lifting the bottom hem of her dress.
She pulled her arms in closer, preventing me from taking it off. “I’m not getting naked in the wellness room.”
I growled playfully and nipped her ear. “Any objections to having sex in here… provided most of your clothes stay on?”
She gasped as my hands found her breasts. I cupped them over the soft fabric of her dress. She arched toward me and started fumbling with the buckle on my belt. “Fine with me,” she whispered. Then she added, “I can’t believe I just said that.”
“Do you take it back?” I asked, lightly pinching one of her nipples.
“Ahhh, no,” she said, moaning.
I trailed one hand down her dress and then up underneath it, where I found the edge of her panties. I dragged them down her legs. She kicked them aside while I backed her toward the sofa. She reclined against it and I settled my weight over her, reveling in the feel of her unfastening my pants and pulling my cock free.
I thrust against her hand a few times, glorying in her grip and the breathy moans she made against my mouth.
Her skin was so soft, and she smelled like vanilla and strawberries. Fuck, I could never get enough of this woman. I paused to pull on a condom and then I was pressing my cock inside her, feeling the tightness and warmth of her surrounding me.
“Jamie,” she whispered, “yes. Yes!”
Finding the collar of her dress, I stretched it down so I could force my hand down the lacy front of her bra and thumb her nipple. She threw her head back against the couch cushions and wrapped her legs around my hips, pulling me closer.
She writhed as she came, gripping me and whispering my name. My release came soon after, and I groaned and rested my forehead against hers.
Once our aftershocks had faded, I stood up, wrapped the used condom in some tissue, and dropped it in the wastebasket next to the free weights. Liz straightened her dress and stood on shaking legs.
“Wow,” she said.
I leaned over and kissed her neck, her cheek, her mouth. “Wow is right. I should head back to my office. Wait here for five minutes, and then you can go, too.”
She nodded, a wicked glint in her eye. “Do you think we’ll get away with this?”
“I hope so,” I said, “but damn, it was worth it, no matter what.”
She laughed softly as I pressed another kiss to her lips.
