Page 10 of Dreaux: The Corporate Assassin

“Dee speaking,” I answered my ringing desk phone. “How can I help you?”

“Good morning, Denim. I hope you’re working on that special assignment. If you weren’t going to be able to wrap it up promptly, you should have just said that, and I could have assigned someone else to the file. You assured me you could get this done.”

I rolled my eyes at the nasal voice of my superior, who was now breathing into my ear as if he’d just run a marathon. “And I meant what I said, sir. You gave me a timeframe to have it done, and if I’m not mistaken, I’m still in that window.” I was trying so hard to keep the attitude from seeping through my voice.

“I know what I gave you. This case is big and?—”

The clearing of someone’s throat caused me to snap my head up from my computer screen. Before me was Nate, looking like the fine man he knew he was. Dressed in a cream button-down and burgundy slacks, he looked like he’d stepped straight out of a magazine. His lineup was so clean you’d think the barbershop was in the lobby. Regardless of the weird space we were in, he was still fine as hell.

“Denim!” Hearing my name shouted in my ear caused me to jump, but I didn’t take my eyes off Nate as he placed his hands in his slacks and looked around my office. “Did you hear what I said?”

“Not at all,” I answered honestly, my eyes still on him. “I have a guest, so I have to go. I’ll be in touch.”

“I hope I’m not interrupting,” Nate said, his back to me as I disconnected the call. He walked over to the window and peered at the people below. “I’ve been calling you all morning.”

“As you know, I don’t arrive at work until after nine.” I swiveled my desk chair around to face him. “What are you doing here? It’s been days since we’ve spoken.”

Slowly, he turned to face me, and my breathing hitched slightly. Nate was a very attractive man, and his energy was, at times, suffocating, and not in a good way. His face remained neutral as he made slow strides toward me. Standing directly in front of me, he lifted my chin and brought my eyes to meet his. He stared at me momentarily before he dropped his lips on top of mine. Tonguing me down, with dominance, I couldn’t help but reciprocate his actions.

“I’ve missed you…” he spoke between pecks as he gripped my cheeks. “Why haven’t I seen you in three days?”

Although he and I were still getting to know each other, I felt he was too aggressive with me at times. I’ve been enjoying the company and adult conversations, but his smothering me early on was a red flag that I wasn’t ignoring. He’s been very vocal about us having sex, but we haven’t gotten close to crossing that line since the house situation. A big part of me was screaming not to have sex with Nate, but every time I thought about our first encounter, I couldn’t help but drool over us going all the way.

“I’ve been giving you space to miss me…” I said with a smirk, hoping that would suffice. “The night I came over was a little weird, but I guess we can move past it. Maybe you could come to my place, and I can cook for you this time.” I tried to push back and put space between us, but he wasn’t allowing it. “What’s wrong?” Eyeing me intently, he angled his head and just stared. His hands lowered from my cheek to the top of my breasts, and goosebumps formed along the way. “Nate…”

Instead of answering, he continued his quest and unbuttoned the top of my blouse, allowing my black, laced bra to be on display. Glancing toward the door, I was thankful it was shut and locked. With my eyes trained on him, I waited for him to make his next move.

“You know you’re sexy as hell?” He licked his bottom lip as he freed my right breast from its cup and pinched my nipple. “We could be having a lot of fun together, but you want to duck and dodge me.”

“Nate…” I moaned as his free hand made its way under my skirt. I knew he could feel the heat radiating from my middle because I was turned on something serious. “What are you doing?”

He shrugged as his hand continued to creep up my skirt. “Had you answered my calls, I wouldn’t have to come to your job to do this. Now, I’m going to have to do here what I wanted to do inside the privacy of my home.”

Before I could object, he was sliding my panties to the side and easing his middle finger into my pussy. My walls instantly clenched at the intrusion. Gripping his wrist, I threw my head back and bit my bottom lip to keep from screaming out.

“Please,” I begged as he moved in and out of me slowly. “W-We can’t do this here.”

He smirked as he continued his assault, inserting another finger, causing me to buck. “Too late, love. The quicker you come, the quicker I can go. You gone sit here and tell me what I can’t do, or are you gonna give me what I came for and send me on my way?”

“Ugh!” I cried out as he dropped his head onto my chest and damn near swallowed my entire right breast. I palmed the back of his head and rocked against his fingers as he continued to invade me. I’ve never been one to do this in a work setting, but he caught me off guard. I wasn’t putting up much resistance because part of me wanted this—a part that was larger than I cared to admit.

“That pussy so fuckin’ tight,” he mumbled into my breast as he latched on like a newborn. “I knew this pussy was going to be something serious from the moment I saw you.” His hand moved faster and faster, and so did my hips. “Go ahead and give it to me, Dee. Give me that nut, girl.”

Holding onto his wrist for dear life, I locked my legs and began to tremble as his fingers fucked me to ecstasy. Throwing my head back, I shut my eyes tightly and bit into my fist to keep from crying out. Even though Jasper and I were the only ones in this office, I still didn’t want him to hear my screams of pleasure.

“Shit!” I panted as I came down from my release, still trembling at the hands of him. “Fuck, Nate.”

He chuckled as he kissed my chest. “Not yet, but soon. Good thing you have a bathroom in here… you made a mess.” Pulling his fingers out of me, I watched as he placed them on his tongue and licked my juices clean as his eyes stayed on mine. “Just as sweet as I remember. Check it… I have to go out of town for a few days, but when I come back, I expect to see you.” Smirking, he bent down and placed a kiss on my forehead. “I’ll call you later.”

Dazed, I watched as he walked across my office and left the room. He didn’t even look back to see if I was okay. I sat there and thought about what happened before I came to my senses. Jumping from my seat, I hurriedly went into the bathroom to get myself together as best as I could. As I washed up, I eyed the flustered woman in the mirror and cursed at being so weak. One moment of pleasure could have jeopardized so much, and it wouldn’t have been worth it. After reprimanding myself, I left the en suite bathroom and cursed once I locked eyes with a smirking Jasper in my office.

“You still don’t wanna tell me the tea on Mr. Nate?” He crossed his arms and eyed me. “You might not want to say anything, but the way he had you moaning, I bet your coochie does.”

Ignoring Jasper, I cursed myself once more and went back to work. What happened with Nate was a mistake I wasn’t too sure wouldn’t happen again. He said he’s going out of town for a few days, which gave me time to get things in order and ready for his return. He told me he was going to see me when he got back, almost as if I didn’t have a choice. Little did he know, I had a surprise already waiting for him. He seemed to be all in about me, and I was hoping he was ready for the next phase in our little relationship as much as I am.

“Luca, what’s up, my boy,”I greeted him as I stepped into Zoo’s home office. Today, he wanted to meet with a few of us to touch base on what’s been going on. A meeting with the other families will be held soon, but this one was for our members of the Family. “I feel like I haven’t seen you in months.”

“He’s too busy being besties with my wife…” Jules chimed in, mushing him as he entered the room. “I need to see Zoo about sending this nigga to China or some shit.”
