I plopped down on the wooden bench seat, closed my eyes, and let the steam fill my lungs and open my pores, relaxing me and offering some quiet before I would begin my day. I’d discovered the pleasure of an early morning sauna session a few weeks back and...
Chapter 20 I’m just getting out of my car across the street from my office building when I feel my phone buzz. Before pulling it out to see who texted, I pull my coat closer to my face as I quickly run across the busy downtown street and into my building....
Chapter 18 “I’ll have a glass of champagne. We’re waiting for two more people to get here, but they should be here any moment. So please also bring out a glass of the pinot noir and an old fashioned,” I say to the server who came by to take our drink orde...
Chapter 16 My office feels unusually quiet as I continue to stare at my computer screen, not really reading anything. It’s the same thing I’ve been doing all morning. In the past, I’ve always been able to work through any personal turmoil I'm going throug...
It takes me a moment to open my eyes and orient myself to where I am. But as the scent of Lauren’s perfume hits my nose, I remember everything. The blindfold, the sex, the pizza, the sex, and then I think there was just more sex. I know I must not have be...
Chapter 14 It’s dark by the time I get to Lauren’s apartment and it’s hard to see much detail other than that the building seems fairly new or it was at least recently renovated. It’s not the luxury high rise I expected her to live in and the building’s l...
Time seems to stand still for a minute as we all just stand there awkwardly. My heartbeat is so fast, I can feel it ramming itself against my chest. I know I should be the first to speak but I feel paralyzed between Jackie’s glare and the woman standing b...
Chapter 12 I’m just putting on a comfortable pair of shorts and a tank top when I hear the knock on my front door. I didn’t change my panties, knowing Lauren would probably steal those for whatever collection of mine she has. I take a deep breath before p...
Chapter 11 Lauren: Where are you? Me: So needy. I laugh at my own text. Which isn’t even funny, but I’m already feeling a little tipsy from the glass of champagne I downed when I first got to the bar. I’m here before anyone else from our team since I need...
“You can’t be serious.” “Oh, but I am, Ems,” Lauren says as she looks at her reflection in the car mirror and fixes some hair that has fallen out of her band. “I’m very serious.” She looks over at me with a playful smile, which starts to turn more serious...
Chapter 9 The car ride to Lauren’s hotel is quiet, but it’s not uncomfortable. After everything that she told me at dinner, I need a moment to process it, anyway. And process my decision to go back to her hotel room with her. I suppose from the moment I s...
Chapter 7 “So not only is she ridiculously pretty and rich, she’s also Captain Planet,” I say as I sink down into my office chair. “If Captain Planet was in the business of servers and data centers,” Jackie says back dryly as she takes the seat across fro...
Chapter 6 It’s a fucking video call. I should have known when I saw the meeting room change from Guy’s private office to one of our video conference rooms. We generally use those for calls with our other offices or when clients are remote. And sure enough...
Chapter 5 I’m so disoriented that it’s not until I’m in the parking garage of Altitude’s building when I remember that I didn’t drive today, and I don’t have any of my stuff from upstairs. I probably should have taken a breath and thought things through,...
The room is dark as I move closer to the bed, the only lights on by now are the soft backlights illuminating off the headboard. Lauren looks even sexier in person than she did in the photo as she pushes two fingers deeper into her folds and lets out a sof...
