“That’s impossible. It has to be here,” Lana cried as her fingers
skimmed across the keyboard of her office computer, her eyes frantic. After several long minutes she finally stopped and whipped her chair around, nearly throwing Matthew off balance, who’d been leaning against it to peer over her shoulder.“I don’t know what happened. When I left Thursday it was here. I promise you.”“It was your account, Lana. If you don’t have it then no one else does,” Matthew said coolly.For several moments she just stared at him with blinking eyes, not really knowing what to say or do. She was at a complete loss. When she’d cleaned out her desk two days ago she had been sure to leave all company files on her computer or on disks in her office. It was companypolicy. Once an employee ended his or her relationship with Renault, they were obligated by law to leave all materials pertaining to Renaultaccounts at the office. It was to ensure that private information did not somehow end up in the hands of their competitors. Lana hadn’t broken the rules. She had left everything but her personal belongings at the office.So, when she’d received a call from Matthew saying that he couldn’t locate the files for the New Zealand account anywhere on her computer or in her office, she’d raced down there on a Saturday still dressed in her “lounging at home on a Saturday morning” attire of faded jeans, flip flopsandals and a canary yellow tank top.“I—I don’t know what to tell you,” she stammered. This had never happened to her before. She had never in her entire time at the company lost an account.Matthew straightened to his full height and of its own volition, her gaze traced the outline of his rippling muscles that strained against his short sleeved white cotton t-shirt. She swallowed the lump in her throat. He looked every bit as young as he was in what appeared to be his gym clothes. But he was still strikingly handsome.She used every ounce of self restraint not to let her eyes dip lower where she’d glimpsed the faint outline of his impressive cock through the thin material of his grey sweat pants when she’d first arrived. She was so used to seeing him in suits that his casual attire had jolted her. Being there with him on a Saturday, in plain clothes, gave the meeting a slightly more intimate feel to it. She gulped down a deep breath, trying to ease the furious beating of her heart. His nearness was unsettling in the close space with just the two of them—alone.“We meet with the Auckland Regional Council in two weeks. We can’t simply show up there empty handed—”“Well that’s your problem, not mine,” she said, shooting to her feet. “I quit two days ago, remember.”His eyes flashed with surprise at her flippant words. She could tell he hadn’t been expecting that response. Well, gone were the days where she slaved and sacrificed her nights and weekends for Renault. She no longer cared.“Lana, you told me if I had any questions to give you a call—”She folded her arms across her chest. “And you did call, with your question, and I answered—” She shrugged her shoulders. “—with an ‘I don’t know’,” she said, not even trying to mask the sarcasm in her voice.She watched as Matthew’s eyes narrowed to slits, his eyes hardening to tiny chips of blue ice. She could tell by the dark scowl on his face that her offhand comment had struck a nerve.“Lana, what is your problem? I am telling you that I need your help—”She stiffened at the simmering fury in his eyes, her own gaze turning cold. “Well you’re CEO now so you don’t really need my help,” she spat out, realizing how childish she sounded, but she didn’t care.“I already told you I had nothing to do with that,” he said gently.He was right. And when she glimpsed the wounded expression on his face, she instantly felt ashamed of her behavior. It wasn’t fair to hold something that was beyond his control against him. She blew out a wearybreath. “I know, and I’m sorry for my comment. But honestly Matthew, I have no idea what happened to those files. I really can’t help you—”“Can’t or won’t?” He asked tightly.“Both,” she said quietly, and stepped around him to head toward the door.She froze when his hands clamped around her arms and he dragged her up against his hard body, her back brushing against his chest. A tiny shiver raced down her spine when she felt the distinct outline of his cock through her clothing. She instantly pushed out her hips to put some space between their bodies.“I can’t let you walk out of here—,” he whispered into her ear, and she had to repress a shudder when his
Matt nearly laughed aloud when Lana blinked at him for several tense seconds as if she was trying to ferret out the deeper meaning of his words. He could tell the moment she’d brushed his comment aside, as if it was a joke, by the subtle shake of her head. He wanted to grab hold of her and shake her. She was a brilliant woman, but for some reason shealways chose to play dumb when it came to his obvious flirting and veiledcomments.He knew she saw the look in his eyes and understood the meaning of his words, and yet she pretended as if she didn’t.“We need to start on this now,” he said moving toward the door to her old office. “I will grab an extra chair from—”“Oh no. I’m not working here on a Saturday anymore. Again, you forget I am no longer an employee.” She pulled out a notepad from her desk drawer and like two days before she scribbled something down for him. “Here is my address.&rdquo
Despite the innocence of her words, he was forced to gulp down a deep breath when tingles of pleasure shot straight to his cock. He wanted to help himself to something alright, but it was certainly not down that hallway.They rounded a sharp corner and walked into a large home office that rivaled her space at work. And like her work office, Lana had everything from a fax machine to a paper shredder tucked away in a neat and tidy fashion. He bit back a grin. She was just so organized. Hewondered what it would take to rumple her feathers and her carefullyordered life.“You can put everything right there.” She gestured to a sturdy glass coffee table on the other side of her desk.He nodded and began to pull everything from the bag he’d carriedinside. Flipping open his laptop, he took a seat on the couch behind thetable. He sat there, his lips twisting into a slight frown as he stared back at the computer screen. He didn’t r
Her eyes rounded and she flattened her hands against his chest to push him away. “What are you—”She should have known from the devilish gleam in his eyes that he was up to something, but when he dipped his head to press his lips against hers, there was no longer any doubt.She gasped in surprise as she stood there frozen, but that was a big mistake. As soon as she parted her lips, he swept inside, his tongue teasing the moist flesh of her mouth as he stroked it around, coaxing her to surrender. He didn’t have to wait long. Shocks of warm pleasure skated across her skin and warmth pooled at her hot center as every nerve in her body crackled with energy. She closed her eyes, twisted her arms behind his neck and simply melted against him as her body disintegrated into one big mass of jelly. Wet heat gushed from inside her to dampen her panties when he cupped her ass and drew her closer to the temptation of his lengthening cock. A sigh of pleasure tore
“Shit.” Lana scowled at her computer screen when she realized she’d spent the last five minutes inputting the wrong data into the wrong column of her Excel spreadsheet. She jerked off her glasses and pinched the bridge of her nose.The events from the night before kept replaying in her head like a broken record. Not only had she admitted to Matthew that she was available but then she’d promised to go out on a date with him as soon ashe returned from New Zealand in three weeks. He wanted to take her outsooner but she’d reminded him that if they were going to finish the account in time for his trip to New Zealand that they just didn’t have the time to spare. He’d seen the wisdom of her advice and agreed—although very reluctantly, but not before she promised to give him a rain check.“What is wrong with you? How did you allow a twenty-nine year old to browbeat you into a date of all things?”She shoo
The sharp sound of something breaking apart instantly startled him awake. He blinked for several seconds until his eyes adjusted to the darkness. It took him another few moments to remember where he was. When his foggy mind began to clear he instantly became alert. Lana.He shot off the couch and crept around the corner. He squinted his eyes against the brightness of the light from the hallway, but was grateful for it because it gave him a clear path to the stairs that led up to the second floor where she slept.The creaking of a door startled him, and he bounded up the stairs, two at a time, his fear for Lana dogging his steps. When he reached the second floor he struggled to once again adjust to the darkness. But as soon as he did, he saw from the corner of his eyes a shadowy figure moving slowly. With silent steps he crept in that direction.His sneakers dug into the plush carpet, muffling each step he took, as he silently stalked the figure moving away from him. H
She wasn’t sure if it was his kisses or the revelation that shocked her, probably both.“Christ, Lana. I want you,” he murmured against her skin. “I’ve wanted you from the day I first met you,” he whispered as he skimmed his hand up her body to tug the other strap down.She struggled to wrap her mind around his words. She had always been polite, but aloof in her dealings with him, and yet he claimed he’d harbored an attraction to her for two years. The sincerity of hisdeclaration boosted her confidence, but she still could not shake the slightdoubt that nagged her.“Matthew,” she rasped out when he moved to push her gown down her body. She shook her head and clutched the thin material at herbreasts just before it could slip to the floor. She swallowed hard and forced herself to meet his searching gaze.“I—I,” she struggled to say the words. She was a tough as nails corporate
He quickened his pace, pumping his finger in and out of her until her juices poured from her cunt. “Yes, yes, yes,” she moaned wildly as she writhed against the floor.He devoured her pussy with his mouth, while he finger fucked her hard. She spread her legs wider, and tugged wildly at his hair. She was so, so close. She clenched her eyes shut, her head rolling back as her orgasm rocketed through her, forcing a sharp cry from her lips“That’s it. Come for me Lana. Come all over my face,” he groaned against her pussy and what little control she had left completely shattered at his words.She clamped her thighs against his head and screamed his name over and over, her body shaking with each tremor that coursed through her.“Matthew,” she moaned out as her climax slowly began to subside, tiny quakes shooting though her limp body. She loosened her grip on his head to tunnel her fingers through his soft hair, tousling it in se
