  He smiled at my reflection but then shot a panicked glance at the numbers board on the elevator. We were on the 4th floor already but none of the other floor numbers were lit up. Of course, I had checked to make sure that no-one else had called it before slipping off the dress. There was still the risk that someone would call the elevator now, though.

  The number 5 lit up on the board just as I pulled open his suit jacket and then his expensive Italian tailored shirt. He kissed me all over with big, greedy kisses that spoke a thousand words.

  By the 10th floor we were both completely naked. It was exhilarating to be with him in this setting without a care in the world. The city was sprawled out below us and life went on as normal for everyone in it. Not for us, though. Not that night.

  The 15th floor came and went, as did the 20th. By the 23rd floor he was putting his clothes back on but I wasn’t.

  We finally reached the top of the hotel. He stepped out of the open doors as immaculately dressed as ever except for the shirt that was hanging out of his pants. Oh, and the suspicious bulge in his pants maybe took away a bit of his usual stylishness.

  When he glanced around I was still completely naked in the elevator.

  “Open the door of your room, please.”

  Rushing to the presidential suite he quickly opened the door. As he turned around, I deliberately brushed my enticing, naked body past him slowly and sensually. On an impulse that I couldn’t resist I deftly lowered the zip on his pants before he closed the door.

  I lingered in the entrance to the room, as though hoping that someone would see us before the door closed. Our relationship was back on track again but I wanted to make this a night he would never forget.

  By now I had slipped my hand inside his boxers and was threatening to take them off altogether by sliding my hand delicately along the inside of the waistband, using every part of my hand to get him even more aroused. Frank helped me inside the room and closed the door behind us with a visible sense of relief that we hadn’t been seen by anyone.

  That was the first time in my life that I had been naked in a public corridor and I felt a tremendous thrill running through my body because of it. This was what being fully alive felt like and I hoped that my new lover felt the same way.

  “Lie down.”

  “Listen Janie, we need to talk about how-”

  “Now!”

  He realized that obeying seemed to be the easiest option. Frank lay down and then I ripped his ridiculously expensive shirt open, with ivory buttons flying everywhere. He stood up to get his trousers pulled down roughly and his boxers ripped off. He looked down at the heap of crumpled and ruined clothes that cost more than some people make in a year.

  “Lie down. Close your eyes.”

  He lay down and closed his eyes. A hot, sticky liquid landed on his bare chest. It ran up to his chin and down to his exposed lower body, making his powerful upper thighs all sticky.

  I carefully straddled him and lowered myself onto his torso. My tongue started to lick him clean. It was a delicious chocolatey syrup that I had bought before getting on the bus to Las Vegas.

  “Open your eyes.”

  I was still naked and had some the chocolate sauce dripping from my breasts onto his chest. It was all messed up in my hair as well.

  “Do you still want to be with me, Frank?”

  “More than anything in the world.”

  I put a hand under a chocolate-covered breast and thrust it towards him, inviting him to taste it. He covered as much of the breast as he could with his mouth and started greedily licking the soft skin under the dripping chocolate.

  He pushed my down onto a soft rug on the floor and began to lick the rest of my body, moving slowly downwards. I gripped the rug tightly as he began to explore the exact place where I had hoped he would go.

  His expert tongue drove me wild. I wanted to do the same for him so I teased him, running my hands up his legs and playing with the chocolate that remained caught up in his hair there.

  I leaned up when I could feel his arousal getting more powerful. I then bent forward and licked off some more chocolate, being very careful to let my skin rub temptingly against his most sensitive areas on the way down.

  He took the initiative next by pulling me off the rug onto the wooden floor and rubbing his body up and down the full length of my body, covering me in more of the deliciously sticky chocolate and licking my body clean afterwards.

  The bedroom was getting covered in chocolate but neither of us cared. We rolled across the floor to the window. I could see giant upside down billboards all around me and the ground dizzyingly far below us.

  A soft but firm hand toyed with me between my legs, driving me wild by letting go each time just as I was ready to explode. Another hand then took my own right hand and guided it to the places where it really wanted to be.

  I didn’t know what time we fell asleep on the floor in each other’s arm but it was already getting light by then. We had spoken very few words that night but they weren’t needed; we each knew what the other wanted and how to make it happen.

  Frank

  When I woke up the next morning we were lying on the bedroom rug. The floor was smeared with chocolate and the cleaning staff was sure to wonder what on Earth we had got up to in here last night.

  I looked down at Janie. She was naked and fast and asleep by my side. I didn’t want to wake her up but we needed to talk things through. To be honest, I was desperate to clear everything up and start our new life together on the right foot. Did this gorgeous woman who had tracked me down so far from home feel the same way?

  Room service arrived with our breakfast and I opened the door as little as possible. With Janie naked on the floor and dried chocolate smeared all round her it looked like the scene of a horrific crime right now.

  It was far too late for breakfast but I had managed to convince the room service staff with the promise of a big tip. I slipped a few notes to the guy and closed the door.

  The smell of the fresh coffee and croissants worked their magic and soon Janie was up and about. She went straight for a shower and called for me to join her. She had cheekily covered her most private parts in bubbles and I took great delight in blowing them away into the air.

  We ate a long, leisurely breakfast together on the bed after the shower. I was trying to think how to start up the conversation and I was sure that Janie was too.

  The right words wouldn’t come to me, so I decided to just open my mouth and see what happened.

  “I love you, Janie.” It seemed weird to hear those words come out of my own mouth for the very first time. It felt good to say them, though.

  “I love you too, Frank.”

  “Can we make a life together? Happily?”

  “I don’t see why not.”

  We hugged on the bed and knocked the breakfast tray to the floor. Coffee stains now joined the chocolate stains on the rug but little things like that were no longer worth worrying about anymore.

  The End

  Trapped With My Boss

  Story Description

  The moment I lay eyes on her in the elevator, I know I have to have her.

  Those curves, that hair, and the way she looks at me with those innocent eyes make me want to take her right in my office. Whenever I see her, every fiber of my body wants to feel her body entwined with mine.

  But she’s my employee.

  She’s off limits.

  And my focus should be on my son and my business after my gold digger ex-wife had left.

  It will break all my rules, but I just can’t resist her any longer.

  I need to make her mine.

  This is a sweet and steamy office romance with no cliffhanger and a HEA!

  Chapter One

  Kate

  The shock passed through my body. I felt like lightning had just struck me. I gasped; it was impossible to prevent the sound from coming.

  For a moment I
felt like I was choking. Despite the air around my body, I couldn’t take a breath.

  “Pull yourself together Kate.” I said firmly to myself.

  Slowly, I looked up at the man stood next to me in the elevator. It was difficult to peer at his features without lifting my head too much; his hand was still hovering next to mine; for the first time in years, I felt the need for the touch of another. If the merest brush of his hand against mine were enough to send this fire through my body, what would holding his hand do?

  I slowly raised my other hand to brush the hair from my eyes; I could see him clearly now. His face had a strong jaw line with just a trace of stubble. I could see the slight bags under his eyes, but they did nothing to detract from the ice blue eyes, which glanced down at me. I could almost see the amusement dancing in them.

  “How are you finding everything today?” He asked his voice deep; it resonated in the elevator, which suddenly felt tiny. He squinted slightly to read the enormous nametag that human resources had got me to wear. I swear they had done it just to make sure everyone knew I was new at the firm.

  “Kate.” He added, making me jump.

  “Uhhh,” I could hear how inept I sounded; my cheeks started to burn as I took a deep breath. “Okay so far, but it has only been three hours.” I raised my voice at the end slightly; hoping to get a good reaction from one of the best looking men I had seen in a long time. His reply was instant, confident, I would even have said bordering on arrogant. “Good, you do come with an impressive array of qualifications.”

  With that the elevator stopped, the doors were still swooshing as he disappeared. I leaned against the cold wall for a moment, wondering what had just happened to me.

  I was still there when a smartly dressed young lady appeared, “Are you okay?” She asked, looking genuinely concerned. I nodded weakly; there was no way I was going to let one encounter with a hunk stop me from showing these people just how good I was. I had worked too hard to achieve my starting position at Live Enterprises and I was going to the top!

  The young lady ran her fingers through her long blonde hair for a moment before nodding; “Come on then,” she said brightly, “The boss needs to see you to finish your induction.” I nodded, collecting myself whilst pushing the image of my elevator man firmly out of my head.

  A moment later Ellie pushed open the door to the top floor office. “Miss Badurn to see you, sir.” She spoke softly, with reverence. The moment I heard his voice say “Send her in!” I froze. How could it possibly be the guy who was in the elevator?

  “Pay attention.” Ellie said softly, “He doesn’t suffer fools gladly.” I nodded as I stepped forward. My resolve was building. It didn’t matter how good-looking he was; he was loaded and arrogant. The epitome of everything I despised in men.

  Simon

  Watching Kate step into my office made me smile; as hard as I tried, it was impossible to stop the corners of my mouth lifting slightly. I could still feel the fire that had spread through my body as our hands had brushed against each other in the elevator.

  Slowly I ran my eyes across her, appraising her. The heels were short on her polished black shoes; they looked new and certainly not from the sort of shop I frequented. Her close fitting black skirt stopped just above the knee, drawing attention to her shapely calves and the womanly curves of her hips. The white blouse alerted everyone to the fact she was new; it was clean and crisp as well as very white. As I met her deep green eyes I felt a fresh jolt shoot through my body. For the first time in three years, I felt an urge; I wanted to rip her clothes off and have my wicked way with her on my desk.

  The look she gave me now was different from the elevator, she hadn’t known who I was then; clearly, she did now. Instantly my professional face returned; there was a very good reason why I didn’t have any interest in women now. Shaun was my son from a woman I could no longer stand to look at; he had just turned seven and I was determined to focus on him and his future; women were usually a long way from my mind.

  “Take a seat, Kate,” my voice was bright but firm. “You don’t mind if I call you Kate?” She knew it wasn’t really a question. “I just need a few minutes of your time to go over the company, its aims and, perhaps most importantly, its core beliefs.” I could feel myself slipping into the distracted professional that had given this speech so many times before. This was good; I didn’t need to get too close to her; my son and the business were all that mattered now.

  I barely even noticed the time passing as I filled her in on what I considered to be important and what I expected from my staff. Only once did my attention wander; Kate had leaned forward and I caught one glimpse of her stunning cleavage; for a moment I felt the urge rising again. I quickly suppressed it and wrapped up the ‘chat’. I wouldn’t be seeing much of Kate; she was starting at the bottom and had a long way to go!

  Kate

  The door closed behind me with a heavy thud, relief flooded my body to be out of his office. Simon, as he had insisted I call him, was charming, good-looking and arrogant. The fact that he was rich was usually enough to put me off by itself, but there was just something about him.

  I still couldn’t believe I had said yes. After all, surely he didn’t take every new employee out for a drink, did he? That was always the problem with starting a new job; you didn’t know the rules and the etiquette. I also didn’t know if I should ask anyone; I didn’t want to rock the boat on my first day.

  My mind was whirling, “A drink with the billionaire CEO straight after work today?” I could hear the question going round and round in my head. It was a struggle to focus on the task at hand, no matter how simple they were. I did catch myself smiling several times, the practical side of my brain had immediately realized that I didn’t have to panic about what to wear; there would be no time for me to change.

  I have to confess I lost count of the number of people I met, all of them seemed nice although two in particular, Fiona and Sharon, were exceptionally friendly. Fiona had an impressive weave of red hair cascading down her back; it framed her face causing her green eyes to glow. Sharon had her blonde hair cut into a bob and wore a low cut top which emphasized her impressive assets. I had to admit, they looked tempting and I had never had feelings like that before.

  I shook my head and glanced at my watch, twenty past four; less than a minute since I had last checked it. This might actually be the longest day of my life! But then, I couldn’t decide if I was desperate for it to be over in order to see Simon again or to get it over with.

  Finally, it was five thirty and I headed for the door, exchanging pleasantries with several of my new colleagues. Simon was stood by the exit, bidding a good night to each member of his team. As my eyes moved across his body I idly wondered if he did that every night. He was wearing a medium gray suit that seemed to be designed to fit his body. The pale salmon shirt collars rising out of the top hinted at his playful nature. I didn’t know much about clothes but I knew these looked expensive.

  A huge grin crossed his face as he saw me; “Ready?” He asked, his eyes glowing softly like two moons on a starry night. Stop it. I told myself quickly. I didn’t want to and couldn’t afford to have a relationship with this man. I sighed dramatically as I said, “Yes, let’s get it over with.”

  I was hoping for a reaction but all I got was a raised eyebrow and an extra twinkle in his eyes. “After you.” He said, still smiling as he placed a hand in the middle of my back and guided me towards the left of his building. I could feel the heat of his hand as a warmth spread through my body, I suddenly wanted his hand to move lower. Quickly I glanced at the last of the staff leaving the building, none of them seemed surprised by my presence next to the boss; maybe it was normal after all.

  Simon didn’t ask me what I wanted in the bar, he simply ordered a bottle of red and two glasses; he knew what he wanted because he never even looked at the menu.

  “So, tell me about yourself.” He said pleasantly.

  “What is this, an interv
iew?” I could hear myself asking without really thinking about my response.

  Simon smiled softly.

  “No, you have already had them; I just want to know a little about you. I like to do it with all my team.” As he spoke I could feel myself being mesmerized by the whiteness of his teeth and the movements of his thick lips; I could imagine them against mine.

  I shuddered, despite myself, he was everything I despised and yet, there was a magnetism about him that I felt drawn to. It was more than just his charm and good looks.

  Taking a deep breath I started on my spiel; I had rehearsed it several times that day. “I have always been interested in communications, particularly developing new systems which will improve business contacts around the world.” I paused, catching my breath but not daring to look into his blue eyes; they would simply suck me in.

  “I studied hard at school to make sure I got the grades and could get to MIT,” I stopped as I realized Simon was speaking.

  “I know your resume, Kate,” he said softly. “What I want to know is who you are, what makes you tick.” His hand rested lightly on me as he spoke, his voice low and earnest. I met his eyes and immediately wished I hadn’t; I could feel my resolve disappearing.

  “I lost my dad when I was six, my mum is supportive but not always present. She took my father’s leaving hard and turned to the drink.” I shook my head.

  I couldn’t believe I was opening up to someone I had just met, I never shared these things with anyone. I found myself continuing, “My mum has never really got over it, I’ve had to work for everything I have and I know that men usually only give you something in exchange for what they want.”
