“No!” Alicia may have been willing to fuck her boss on the job, but she wasn’t a liar. She had wanted it, all right. “You held a position of authority over me, though. What would have happened if I said no?”
“I would have left you alone.” Danica carefully closed the book and turned to Alicia again.I hate her eyes. Stop looking at me like that.Although Danica gazed right into her visage, it was still like she undressed Alicia’s skirt and blouse from her body, peering at her nakedness with as much hunger as she possessed the other night. “Simple as that.”
Keep making it sound like it was my fault.Would’ve been another thing if Alicia had instigated sex. Danica had made it pretty clear, though, that she wantedherfirst and foremost.
“If I may, Ms. Colbert, I don’t have much time for socializing. I’m a busy woman, and I have other appointments to keep later this evening. If it’s all right with you, I’d like to cut right to the chase about why I have asked you here.”
Alicia pulled her shoulders back and kept her mouth taut. “Go on. I admit that I am curious. If it’s not to get me into furthertrouble, I can’t imagine why you have gone out of your way to send your assistant to fetch me a week after the fact.”
Danica’s teeth revealed themselves through her thin lips. She looked like a predator about to rip Alicia’s jugular. Why the hell was that making her knees tremble?Shit, this is what got me in trouble last time.Already, her body screamed to find a way to make this woman hers again.“Remember how she did you, Alicia? You always knew you were missing out on sex. You knew what potential lurked with someone who knew what they were doing. Your pussy had been ready for ten YEARS! Don’t you think it’s time you caught up with your peers on the sex front? I bet she’s ready to give it to you again. Play your cards right, girl!”Her body could go to hell.
“I apologize for any inconvenience I have wrought upon your life, Ms. Colbert.” Danica was only a few feet away now, her aura threatening to swallow Alicia whole again. “I don’t gain any pleasure out of you losing your job.” Her hand touched the tip of Alicia’s ponytail. Alicia took a careful step toward the window. “I do, however, derive much pleasure from your presence. Regardless of how events turned out the other night, I hope that you can agree with me that it was a good time for both of us.”
Alicia’s cheeks flushed with heat again. This time, however, it was not anger fueling her reactions.It’s all embarrassment now.
“I’ve asked you back here for one reason, Ms. Colbert.”
Her voice was right in Alicia’s ear again. Such a dangerous place for it to be. It was liable to make Alicia shake in her heels and close her eyes so she could imagine Danica taking her again.Fine thing that would be.Alicia couldn’t tell a soul if she was serious or not. Some things remained a mystery, even to her.
“What is that reason, Ms. Moreau?”
Her fingertips pushed her chin up, head back. Alicia now looked directly into those strange amber eyes.
“For an encore.”
Unbelievable, yet Alicia wasn’t surprised at all. She had flippantly fucked her after only knowing her for half an hour and two conversations. Why wouldn’t she send her assistant to fetch her for another quickie in her downtown pad?
“I don’t know what kind of girl you take me for, Ms. Moreau,” she said, defying that burning thrill in Danica’s eyes, “but I don’t exist for you to fuck whenever you want.”
She continued to smile. “You could.”
Alicia jerked away from that touch. “What?”
“Hm.” That smirk faded. “Never mind.” Danica turned, acting as if she were about to leave the room. “I’m sorry to have wasted your time, Ms. Colbert. I’m sure Ms. Clayborn told you that I value mine so much. I do not intend to waste anyone’s time, least of all yours.”
Her figure joined the shadows of the far side of the room. “Who said you were wasting my time?” Alicia said.
The air grew thick and warm. Alicia sucked in her breath as she watched Danica turn once more, still on the other side of the room.
“You summoned me here out of the blue. I had to get dressed all nice and pretty to meet with you. I’ve waited here for ten, fifteen minutes for you to deign me with your presence. Now, you’re going to walk away? Excuse me, but I think I deserve something for my efforts. And time. I should be looking for a new job. Least you could do is give me a reference.” Shit. A reference from this woman would be great!
“You’re right. My apologies. But excuse me if I’m now wary of your sincerity, Ms. Colbert.” Danica tapped her foot once, finger pointing to her shoe. “If you wish to take me up on my offer, you can come here and tell me yourself.”
Why you…
Alicia hated her. Her blood heated. Her face twisted. Her heart demanded repayment. Her body… well, it was the biggest traitor in the room.
It wanted to go to Danica and see what happened.
I swear.Alicia took one step forward, careful not to show her nerves.You get one hot taste of sex, and you turn into a…
She was mere inches away before she had the chance to finish her thought. “All right,” she whispered. Yet she already planned her next move. “Like you, my time is valuable. I need to go home soon.”
“I’m glad we’re on the same page.” Danica hesitantly touched Alicia’s shoulder before relaxing her grip and letting her hand wander down her back.I’m going to explode!Especially beneath the weight of such a raw gaze! “The question is, how much? Have you thought of me at all since a week ago?”
Alicia closed her eyes and focused on her breathing as Danica squeezed her ass through her pencil skirt.Remember how she spanked it? Fuck.
“You’re a hard woman to forget, Ms. Moreau.”
