Page 12 of Office Mistakes

The quiet snick alerted Charlie to her presence. That, and the faint scent of her perfume.

He turned, a box of pens in his hands and questions in his eyes.

“I have something to run by you,” Audra said quietly. “A plan of sorts.”

“A plan?” Charlie echoed.

“Or a proposal. Either word works.”

“Okay. What’s up?”

Audra took a bracing breath. “I like you, Charlie. Quite a lot, actually. I thoroughly enjoyed the time I spent in your bed. And we both know that we’re better off flying under the radar because of the promotion. So it can be a secret, if you're in.”

Charlie waited a beat. “A secret.”

Audra nodded. “Yes. A secret office fling. That way, we can have the best of both worlds.”

“Audra, I don’t think—"

“Kiss me,” she interrupted.

Charlie blinked. “What?”

“Kiss me.”

She stepped forward and placed her hands on his shoulders, tilting up her face.

Charlie gave in. He brushed a kiss across her lips, delighting in the taste of her.

He kissed her again, this time tracing her lips with his tongue. Accepting the invitation, Audra let his tongue dance with hers as her breath began to hitch.

One kiss melted into another as Charlie dropped the pens and cupped her breasts. She strained towards him, murmuring her pleasure as he lightly pinched her hardened nipples.

She helped him as he fumbled with the buttons of her blouse, sighing with pleasure as his mouth closed over a lace-covered peak.

Charlie was hard. He pushed Audra against a filing cabinet, lifting one of her hands and placing it over his straining erection.

“Mmm,” Audra purred. Before either of them were fully aware of what was happening, Audra had freed Charlie’s length and slipped to her knees. She ran her tongue down him before taking him into her mouth.

Charlie felt his eyes cross. “Audra,” he rasped, a hand tangling in her hair, urging her on.

A quick jiggle of the door handle brought them back to reality.

With a low, throaty laugh, Audra rose to her feet. “Looks like we can’t keep our hands off of each other. Now I’m all wet.”

He gritted his teeth. “You’re killing me.”

“I didn’t get off either,” she complained as she hurriedly buttoned her blouse and smoothed her hair. “But we’re going to remedy that.”

“Yeah?”

“Yeah. Tonight, at my place.”

“Sing “Hallelujah,” Charlie muttered, willing his erection away.

Audra sent him a wicked smile before slipping out of the room.
