The Deal: A Billionaire and a Virgin Office Romance by Sarah J. Brooks (66)

  1. Chapter 1

 

Liz felt caught; she didn’t know what to say. Bella had just seen that Liz did not sleep in her bed last night. Bella would know that something had happened between Liz and Harrison. Instead of blurting out the truth Liz looked to Harrison to explain the situation to his daughter.

Harrison would know what to do. He unfortunately looked just as caught off guard as Liz did, but he seemed much better at thinking on his feet though.

“Bella, come eat. Liz just fell asleep on the couch,” Harrison did his best to hide his concern that Bella was going to figure out the situation.

Harrison was her father; he knew that Bella would not approve of him sleeping with her friend. Quite frankly, even Harrison wasn’t sure he approved of what he did with Liz last night. If any one of his friends had told him a similar situation had happened to them, he would have told them they were insane!

Bella reluctantly dropped the subject and joined her father and Liz for breakfast. The three of them sat quietly in awkward silence as they ate eggs and drank their juice. Liz spent much of the meal trying to avoid eye contact with Harrison. She knew that was something she normally would be doing, so as much as she wanted to look into his dreamy eyes, she was not going to do that right now.

Bella spent the breakfast looking between her father and Liz; something was weird, but Bella just couldn’t put her finger on what was going on. Perhaps her father was just upset because Bella had let Liz spend the night there? Or maybe he didn’t know what to say because Liz’s face looked like she had been beaten up. Bella decided it was best to keep the topic of conversations pretty neutral for now.

“Daddy is it alright if Liz just stays here for the rest of the semester. She can’t stay in the dorm with me.” Bell said as she looked at her father with her biggest little girl eyes she could muster.

Harrison looked at Liz and tried to figure out the best thing to say. Yes, he would love to make love to Liz every night. It would be perfect. But he suspected that would be bad for everyone involved. As much as he liked Liz, having her live with him in the apartment would be a sure fire way of them messing up and getting caught by Bella.

“Oh no thanks, Mr. Wellington I’ve got a place to stay,” Liz chimed in before Harrison could even answer.

“Liz, really…where?” Bella questioned.

“A friend from the bar. She’s going to let me rent her spare room.” Liz said as she smiled at Harrison.

It was a relief that Liz had a place to stay and wouldn’t need to stay with him. Harrison knew for sure if Liz was living there, taking showers there, sleeping in the same apartment; neither of them would be able to resist themselves. It would be fun for sure, but certainly not something either of them would be able to keep from Bella for very long. Harrison wasn’t sure he would ever be willing to tell Bella what had happened last night.

“Well Liz, if you need anything you are welcome to come by. I’ll have a key made for you just in case.” Harrison said as he smiled at Liz.

Luckily Bella wasn’t paying attention because Liz instantly bit her bottom lip when she made eye contact with Harrison. This single action sent a jolt throughout Harrison, and his smile turned to a desire to bite her lip himself. He shook his head at her to stop. Then he pointed to his lip and shook his head.

Liz smiled. She kept biting her lip and shrugged her shoulders. Egging Harrison on. Driving him crazy, because she loved the feeling of knowing what she was doing was enticing to him. Liz also thought it would be a bad idea to live with Harrison, but she only based that on the possibility of Bella finding out about them. Liz could think of no other reason she should avoid having sex with Harrison again.

“Thanks, Mr. Wellington,” Liz said a bit overzealously.

“Liz let’s get out of here. I’ll help you bring your things over to your co-workers house.”

“Alright. Can you grab my hairbrush and make-up bag, I think it’s in your room.” Liz got up to grab her bags by the front door.

The second Bella was in her room; Harrison grabbed Liz and pulled her close to him. He leaned down and pulled her lip into his mouth as he kissed her roughly. Liz got caught off guard but instantly wanted Harrison in his bed again. Just as quickly as he grabbed her, he let her go though. His eyes fixed on Bella’s bedroom just in case she would reappear.

“Remember, if you need anything you stop on by,” Harrison said as Bella returned from her room.

“Daddy you’re so nice. Oh and why are you home? What happened to Boston?” Bella asked.

“Oh, I just forgot some important papers. I’ll be heading back out there tonight. What are you girls going to be up to?”

“I’m working as much as possible. Need to get the last semester tuition paid for. Since we have a couple days off this week, I’ll take a few double shifts.” Liz said.

“I’m hanging with some of my non-working friends,” Bella added with a smile.

“Alright, well you girls take care of yourself and behave,” Harrison added as the girls left the apartment.

Harrison couldn’t help but enjoy the view of Liz leaving. Her ass was insane. He wanted to feel that again. It would be something he thought about frequently until he was able to have her again. Although deep down he knew it would be a bad idea, Harrison still wanted Liz.
