Page 40 of Love From the Ashes

“Armand fired Alice. She admitted to giving a copy of your personnel file to Krista. She said Krista threatened her if she didn’t do it. I don’t know the details yet, but I’m sure I’ll find out the whole story later. Krista is heading to human resources, and Armand will be firing her shortly. I’m going to take you out of here before that happens. How about if we swing by your apartment to gather a few things, and then I take you home? I want you to stay with me. Is that all right?”

“Yes.” I could feel my cheeks burning as I pictured the two of us naked in his bed, Reid pleasuring me in a way I hadn’t known was possible before I met him.

“You’re blushing. I hope you’re thinking what I am. I’ve seriously missed you.”

I reached down, my hand cupping him through his slacks. “Mmm. I’ve more than missed you.”

Reid put his hand over mine and pulled it away. “You better stop that, or I’m going to have to take you into my office and lock the door, and that’s not exactly proper. At this point, we’ll be at your apartment a lot longer than a few minutes since there seems to be something we both want, and it’s not going to wait until I get home.”

“Good,” I whispered as my hands slid up his thighs. “The sooner the better.”

Reid growled as he gently pushed me away. “Home, now, before you drive me crazy.” He grabbed my hand and led me toward the door, now in a rush to get out of there.

I grinned at his eagerness, feeling the same way. But deep down, it was so much more than that. I’d been so miserable over the last three weeks, and it wasn’t only because I missed the sex. I missed Reid. He made me feel whole, comforted, secure, and content. It was almost like he’d reached into my soul, the connection beyond description. My life felt incomplete without him, and I couldn’t imagine what I would do if I lost him again.

CHAPTER 15

The Annual Gala

Istood inReid’s walk-in closet, holding a glittery emerald-green cocktail dress in front of me as I scanned my image in the mirror. Although it was nice, I was partial to the royal-blue chiffon. The color was a much better complement to my dark hair and sapphire eyes. Satisfied I’d selected my outfit for this evening’s opening night gala for the Boston Symphony Orchestra, I turned to hang the dress back up in Reid’s closet. I jumped when I spotted him standing in the doorway.

“The dress is nice. Is that what you’re wearing this evening?”

“No, I’m going to wear the royal-blue dress I bought the other day instead. Do you want to see me try it on?”

“Do I want to see you get undressed in front of me? What kind of question is that?” Reid devilishly chuckled as he walked toward me.

“I’m serious.”

“So am I.” Reid kissed me while his hands caressed my rear. Then he stepped away and sat on the bench in his closet. “Go ahead. Show me.”

I turned my back to Reid and grabbed the hem of my blouse, slipping the fabric over my head. I watched him in the mirror, noticing I had his full attention. A thought suddenly occurred to me, and I realized this could be more fun than I’d thought. A strip tease seemed fitting, especially since the mere thought of it was sexy and exciting. Swiveling my hips in an erotic rhythm, I unclasped the waistband of my pants and inched them downward, slowly exposing my underwear. I could see in the mirror that Reid’s eyes were on my ass when I dropped them to my ankles.

“Damn, you’re wearing a thong,” he said, sounding pleased.

Achieving my desired reaction, I slid my fingers along the waistband of my thong. Moving my hips in a slow circle, I teasingly inched the lacy red fabric down my cheeks until my rear was bare. After letting the skimpy garment fall to the floor, I spread my thighs and bent forward, giving Reid a full view of what I had to offer. Wanting to arouse him even more, I reached down and slowly touched myself, causing Reid to groan behind me. I lifted my head to watch him in the mirror, spotting the bulge in his pants.

“I don’t know how long I can sit here and watch. Damn, I want you.”

I stood and met his eyes in the mirror as I continued to sensually swivel my hips while unclipping my bra and dropping the garment from my fingers. Knowing he was intently watching, I seductively pinched and teased my nipples as I whispered, “Imagine my tongue on your cock.”

“Come here,” Reid groaned. “Dammit, I want you.”

I sauntered toward him with a suggestive swish of my hips and stopped in front of him, his mouth instantly going to my nipple. I moaned as his finger teased and stroked between my legs, the area wet from my arousal.

Reid bent down and spread my lower lips, his tongue flicking and stroking my nub. He fingered me as his tongue continued its wild up-and-down motion, drawing a succession of moans from my throat. “Ride me,” he said, his voice breathless as he removed his clothes and lay down on the bench.

“Not yet. I want to taste you first.” I got on my knees and teased him, my tongue sliding up and down his erection. I grabbed him, slipping his tip in my mouth, incrementally taking more of him until I had him all. Then I worked his shaft and head with my hand as I sucked and teased, deep-throating him in between.

“I’m going to come.” Reid’s voice was deep and rough, and his face and chest flushed as he strained forward.

“Not yet. I’m not done.” I climbed on top of him as I held him upright. “I want to come with you inside me.” I thrust my body down on him, sliding up and down his shaft with frenzied strokes. Then I leaned my upper body forward, my palms on his chest. I rode him like I couldn’t get enough, his abdomen rubbing against the nub between my thighs. I threw my head back as my body shuddered, wave after wave of contractions grabbing his cock as I had a wildly erotic orgasm.

Reid grabbed my hips, his movements frantic as he repeatedly pulled me down on him. He suddenly let out a long, guttural groan as he held me against him, his body lying still as he released.

I stared at Reid, my mouth slightly parted as I felt a warm pool of his semen spreading inside me. He’d been so aroused he’d ejaculated more than usual, and this wasn’t the first time I’d felt it. I smiled to myself, feeling empowered to have such an effect on him.

Reid stood when I climbed off him, and then he suddenly scooped me into his arms and carried me from the closet.
