Valerie stepped into her penthouse with a blossoming smile that lit up the whole place. The day had been fantastic - a complete opposite of yesterday's mess. She'd even managed to close the Harlow deal. Her joy knew no bounds right now."Welcome, Ms. Valerie," Clara greeted on seeing her, "I've drawn your bath, and dinner will be ready within the hour."But Valerie was already moving past her toward the bedroom, her mind elsewhere. She couldn't wait - not for dinner, not for a bath, not for anything. She wanted to see Rick again. The thought of his frustrated expression when she'd left that morning, the memory of how his eyes had devoured her naked body, sent a thrill of anticipation through her entire body.Without bothering to change out of her work clothes, she quickly packed a small overnight bag, tossing in essentials and a few OTHER items. Her pulse quickened as she imagined his reaction to finding her on his doorstep again."Clara, cancel dinner," she called out, grabbing her
The moment Rick heard the door close, he emerged from his bedroom like a man escaping prison. His dick was already straining against his trousers. Hard and painful. She had certainly done that on purpose. Stood naked in the middle of his living room knowing he would come out. God... her name precedes her. That body? That was the body of a goddess. He'd never seen a woman with that kind of luscious body before. Even the memory of it right now caused his dick more pain. The same dick that had suffered greatly ever since she stepped foot into this apartment yesterday. "Fuck," he muttered, running both hands through his hair. The woman would literally be the death of him. No matter how hard he tried to pretend or focus on his mission, Valerie was sure to destroy everything.And to make matters worse, he hadn't gotten a single atom of sleep last night. And that porn stunt? It only worsened everything. Every time he'd tried to close his eyes, he could hear her moving around his apartment,
The couch had actually been more comfortable than Valerie expected, and she'd managed a few hours of sleep. But then she woke up feeling restless and on edge. Rick had woken up a pool of need within her last night, but had left her wanting and hornier than ever. At this point, she didn't know what to do to relieve this tension within her. Her dildo was in her bedroom at home. Shit. She should've carried it along. Should've known that Rick wouldn't break. She walked around the living room, looking for any makeshift dildo she could use, but she found nothing. Infact there was nothing much to find in this house. The place looked like he just moved in and was bringing in household items gradually. She sighed, giving up. She'll just have to bring her toys when coming next time.She looked towards the direction of his bedroom. The man really intrigued her. She wanted to know what kept him grounded. Why was he so difficult to break? Even when turned on and aroused, he still refuses to ca
Rick went completely still as their lips met. Then he kissed her back immediately. Valerie smiled inwardly: he might act like an asshole around her, but he always responded to her kisses. He kissed her with an intense hunger that stole her breath, his hands caressing every part of her body. Then in one fluid sweep, he scooped her off the bed, her legs immediately wrapping around his waist.She buried her hands in his hair, melting into him as he kissed her like he wanted to devour her. He squeezed her ass firmly, and started moving.Valerie was so lost in the kiss that her eyes were shut close, enjoying the feel of his mouth on her, his heat, his warm hand squeezing her ass. She trailed her hands from his head to his face then down his back in an attempt to remove his shirt."Mmmm..." she moaned against his lips, as she felt his hands slid in between her ass, rubbing the space within.Valerie bucked up at the feeling, hot rush of desire shooting up her ass down to her tingling toes
Two hours later, Valerie finally set down her pen with a satisfied sigh. She had accomplished more work in Rick's living room than she had managed in her entire office all day. The contracts were reviewed, the reports analyzed, and her mind felt clearer than it had since the week before. Being close to Rick was really good for her. Maybe she should visit often. Probably every night. She grinned at the thought. She stretched, rolling her shoulders to work out the kinks from hunching over paperwork, and yawned deeply. Her body was finally ready for sleep, and she was very certain she'll sleep like a baby tonight.She arranged her files on the table, and walked quietly toward the bedroom. Her heart rate picked up as she approached the door, half-expecting to find it locked. But when she turned the handle, it opened silently.She smiled to herself. He hadn't locked her out.The bedroom was a bit dark with the moonlight streaming in. Seems like Mr. Broody likes it dark, no wonder he'd bee
"Hold on, let me get something," Valerie signaled to Steve.Immediately, she went back and grabbed the stack of work files that had been taunting her all day from her desk. The very same contracts and reports that had seemed like a dark cave every time she'd tried to focus on them. If she couldn't concentrate at home or at the office, maybe she could get some work done at the source of her distraction."Let's go Steve," she called, walking toward the elevator where he waited.He nodded, but she could've sworn she'd caught a slight furrow in his brow as they entered the elevator. She didn't care though.Once they were in the car, Valerie pulled out her phone and sent Steve the address she'd memorized from yesterday morning - Rick's apartment building. She watched his eyes widen slightly in the rearview mirror when he saw the location."Ma'am, this is...""I know where it is," she cut him off. "Just drive."The drive felt both endless and far too short. Valerie's heart hammered against
