When I stepped into the office, the first thing I noticed was no receptionist. It was silent. The phones weren’t ringing, and I didn’t hear the telltale clacking of computer keys or printers running. Something was not right.
I walked through the empty office and got a bad feeling. Had they staged a walkout? I went to Saige’s office and found it empty. Now I was really worried. Expecting to find another note, I headed for my office. I pushed the door open and found Saige sitting with her feet propped up on my desk.
“Took you long enough,” she said with a smile.
“Excuse me?”
“I’ve been waiting.”
“Did you pull the fire alarm?” I asked incredulously.
“I did. You wouldn’t answer my calls and you didn’t show up.”
I stared at her for several seconds. “You could have called my assistant like a normal person.”
“This seemed more effective. Although the fire department did want me to tell you the fire alarm isn’t a toy.”
I clenched my jaw. “The fire department?”
“Oops,” she said with a grin. “They weren’t going to fine us this time. I explained it was an accident.”
I let out a sigh of relief. “Why?”
“What?”
“What did you want that was important enough to pull a fire alarm?”
She held up a finger. “I’m not going to admit to anything.”
“What was so important that you had to break the law?”
“I wanted to talk to you,” she said.
I wasn’t sure if I was pissed or impressed with her effort. “I gathered that,” I said.
She got to her feet and came around the desk. “You didn’t call me back,” she said in a soft voice.
“You made it pretty clear you weren’t interested in talking to me. I’m giving you space. You and Jace.”
She reached out and grabbed my tie, slowly wrapping it around her hand as she pulled me close. She leaned up on her toes and kissed me. This was the part when I was supposed to walk away. We weren’t doing this anymore. It was confusing things too much. I had to focus on the company. I couldn’t keep getting into this with her.
But I didn’t pull away. I didn’t get into it, but I didn’t tell her to stop. She was the one to break the kiss. “I’m sorry for going off on you Friday. You didn’t do anything wrong.”
“Apology accepted,” I murmured.
“You were only trying to help him.”
I nodded. “I was.”
I was afraid to say too much. I wasn’t a saint. After that kiss, I was ready. The office was empty, which tended to be our MO. I told myself I wasn’t going to do this anymore, but damn if I wasn’t ready to have her once again. I wanted her. I felt like I was addicted to the woman. I couldn’t remember ever feeling this drawn to someone. I rarely had sex with the same person more than a handful of times. I avoided making a connection with anyone. I didn’t want the drama. It was easier to keep things at arm’s length.
“I shouldn’t have blamed you,” she said and released my tie.
Her hands roamed over my chest. I knew exactly where this was leading. “Where is everyone?” I asked. I wanted to make sure we had some privacy.
“I sent them home.”
“Again?”
“There wasn’t a lot to do, and I wanted to be alone with you,” she replied.
“You did, huh?”
She slowly nodded as her hands slid to my waistband. I felt used. But in the best way. I didn’t move. I let her do what she wanted. I was her willing victim.
She worked in silence as she undid my belt and then pants. She pushed my pants over my hips and dropped to her knees in front of me. I stared down at her, watching as she reached for the erection that had sprung to life almost the moment her hands hit my belt.
She spoiled me. The silence in the office was deafening. The only sound I could hear was my own shallow breathing. She gently squeezed my cock, pulling a strangled groan from low in my throat. I waited, anticipating what would come next. She looked up at me with her hand still wrapped tightly around me. Her tongue darted out and licked over the head of my cock.
My body violently jerked. My knees nearly buckled. It was sheer willpower that kept me on my feet. Our eyes were locked as she lapped at my cock. My hands balled into fists as they hung at my sides. When she bent her head, I knew what was about to happen, but I was still unprepared for how damn good it felt. I closed my eyes and let myself live in the pleasure. Her mouth slid down my length until I could feel her tonsils. I struggled to stand perfectly still. I fought the urge to bounce my hips against her face.
If this was how she apologized, I was going to ignore her and be offended a hell of a lot more often.
Chapter 55
Saige
I could feel his restraint. He was trying to hold back. The man clearly had no idea just how determined I was to swallow every last drop of him.
I had not pulled the fire alarm with the intention of doing this. I truly had planned on simply talking to him. Then I saw him. He cut a dashing figure in the tailored suit with the top three buttons undone at the top. There had been a wild look in his eyes that turned me on. It was the perfect combination of refined alpha male that pushed every button I had. Before I could think twice about what I wanted, I was on my knees with his dick halfway down my throat.
I upped my suction power, pulling him deep into my throat. I heard his grunting mingling with his short gasps for air. I could feel him moving close to the edge. I slowed down, running my tongue around the head of his cock. It felt good to hold the power in my hand—literally. Right then, I might have been on my knees in front of him, but I was the one with the power.
“Saige,” he groaned. He almost sounded like he was in pain. He reached for my head, his fingers twining through my hair and pulling.
I reached for his balls and gently tugged. It was the trigger he needed. He roared, his hips jerking and pushing him deeper down my throat. I swallowed every bit of him. When he stepped back, I got to my feet.
His eyes were dark and heavy-lidded. I offered him a small smile. He didn’t bother to pull up his pants. “That was unexpected,” he said and kicked off his shoes.
I watched as he kicked off his pants before shrugging out of his jacket and letting it fall to the floor. I felt heat coursing through my veins. It was the way he looked at me.
The palpable tension in the room wrapped around me.
“I didn’t plan it,” I told him.
“I don’t care,” he growled and tugged at his tie until it was undone and falling to the floor.
I sensed the animalistic energy in the air. He was going to fuck me without holding back. He was going to make me scream and beg for mercy. I couldn’t wait.
“I want you,” I told him. “Right fucking now.”
He came toward me like a tiger stalking his prey. I actually took a step back. I didn’t know why because I wanted him to take me. It was just the way he was looking at me. It intimidated me. It made me wet. I could feel my panties growing damper.
He reached out, and with one quick flick of his wrist, my blouse was yanked open. I heard a button hit the window behind his desk. He pushed my shirt down my arms. It stopped about halfway, pinning my arms to my sides. I sucked in a breath. I was on the edge of an orgasm. His mouth opened and clamped down on the side of my neck.
