She turned and looked at me over her shoulder, a look of lust on her face as my name rolled off her lips in a sexy moan. We locked eyes, and she held my gaze as I climaxed, my orgasm jolting through me. Knowing that she hadn’t come yet, I slowly pulled out and turned her around to face me.
“Sit,” I whispered, leaning in close to her ear while my tongue ran up the side of her neck. Her chest rose and fell heavily as her breathing got more ragged. I leaned forward and pulled thelace of her bra down with my teeth, freeing her nipples before running my tongue along them. My hand skimmed along her thigh before dipping in between and finding the wet warmth of her pussy. I slid a finger inside of her, using my hand to push her thighs further apart to allow me access as I lowered my head and pulled a hardened nipple into my mouth.
I sucked hard, flicking it with my tongue as my fingers fucked her. The way her body responded so quickly to my touch had my dick starting to get hard again. I leaned over and gave the other nipple a turn as my fingers worked their way up to her clit. I could feel her body stiffen as it reacted to the pressure that was starting to build. Her back arched, pushing her breasts further into my face as I growled and started sucking the other nipple again. I could tell that this was about to send her over the edge, and while I still wanted to taste her and devour her as she came on my face, I didn’t want to ruin the pace we had when she was so close to orgasm.
I rubbed her clit harder, her chest heaving in my face as her nails scratched down my back. She tried to stifle her moan, her head tilting back as her orgasm started. Her pussy clenched around my fingers as she squirmed around me, riding the wave of pleasure while grinding against my hand. A few seconds later, she leaned forward and opened her eyes, a look of satisfaction spreading across her face.
“That was fucking incredible,” I said as my eyes roamed her body, taking in every tiny detail, like the cute little mole she had right underneath her left breast.
“You’re telling me,” she teased while pulling her bra up and adjusting the straps. She glanced down and located the rest of her clothes. I stepped to the side and turned away as I worked to clean myself up and get dressed.
“I guess we better leave before someone walks in and finds us here.”
I was just about to assure her that we didn’t have to worry about that since everyone else had already left, then I remembered that I was still waiting for Brent to show up. This was the last thing that I needed to explain to him.
“Yeah, I’m still waiting on Brent Wallace to come by, so I’d better get back to my office before he shows up.”
I opened the door and waited for her to go through before closing it behind us and making sure it was locked. She looked over her shoulder as she stopped and waited for me to walk beside her.
“Brent’s already been by,” she said, clearly confused as to why I was still waiting.
I stopped walking, my head whipping to the side to stare at her.
“Excuse me? When did he come by?” My forehead creased as I scowled.
“This afternoon, after Kate left. I offered to come get you, but he insisted that he was in a hurry and was only stopping by to pick up the items you had left for him.”
I felt like the blood was pulsing through my head, the sheer throb of it threatening to make it explode. I ran a hand down the scruff of my jawline and looked away.
“And?” I was trying my best not to take my frustration out on her.
“I gave him the documents that we had discussed earlier.” She swallowed hard, the color draining from her face as she watched my reaction.
“Son of a bitch!” I growled as I turned and headed straight for my office, leaving her behind in the empty silence of the hallway. I slammed my door and paced back and forth as I tried to figure out how to fix the mess that she had just created.

My head felt like it was going to explode, the pressure almost unbearable. I pulled the extra blanket from the back of the couch and wrapped it around me as I shivered. My body was achy and desperate to rest, but every time I tried to lie down in bed, my nose would start running, which would lead to a coughing fit. It seemed the only way that I could get comfortable enough to try to rest was to pile every pillow I had in my apartment and stack them together so I was at the perfect angle on the couch.
The heater was turned up as far as I was willing to let it go since I didn’t need an absurdly ridiculous bill. I had taken my temperature a few hours ago and wasn’t surprised that I had a fever, given how shitty I was feeling. I took some Tylenol and placed a cold washcloth on my forehead, hoping the fever would break soon. The last thing I wanted was to have to go to the doctor when I could barely get myself off of the couch.
I squirmed until I got comfortable, thankful that I was tired enough to go to sleep. But just as I closed my eyes to try to get some rest, my phone dinged with a new text message. I had already talked to Regina this morning to let her know that I wouldn’t be in today, and she had assured me that she would let Ethan know.
It wasn’t that I was avoiding Ethan after he had blown up at me yesterday. It was more that I would rather stick a rusty nail through my eyeball than talk to him right now. When I went by his office to talk about what had happened with Brent, I was metwith ice-cold silence and was ordered to go home. I knew where I stood with him after that.
I had planned to talk to him and assure him that Brent and I spoke about what was in the folder and that I had a thorough conversation regarding what was being proposed. It was beyond irritating that he chose to treat me as if I was some brand-new lawyer, straight out of law school, when I’d been practicing as long as he had, according to Google.
I didn’t bother picking up my phone to check it, nor did I bother with it when I heard it vibrating across the coffee table as it rang. My entire body hurt as I closed my eyes and tried to relax now that I had finally gotten comfortable. Within my reach was the TV remote, so I grabbed it and turned up the volume in an effort to drown out the sound of my phone as it continued to dance across the wooden surface. The sound of laughter from the show filled the room, allowing my body to give in and get the sleep that I so desperately needed.
My deep sleep was soon interrupted by the sound of someone incessantly banging on the door. Lacking the energy and strength I needed to deal with it, I lifted my hands and covered my ears as I tried to will away whoever was there.
“Come on, Eva, I know you’re in there. I can hear the TV.” Ethan’s voice crept under the door and echoed in the small room.
“Go away. I’m sick,” I muttered as loudly as I could so I wouldn’t have to get up and answer the door. That was way too much work right now.
“Open the door, or I will go downstairs and get them to give me a key. I’m not leaving until we talk,” he warned.
