“When I was with him last night, he made me feel that. He made me feel beautiful and sexy.”
“That is what you should be believing. Look, Madison. I know the hard work you put in when you were getting ready to divorce Ralph and even afterward. You made incredible strides. I think most people get a little nervous wondering if someone they are attracted to is really interested in them. Don’t let Ralph’s venom take away from all the progress you made.”
“Did you feel insecure when you were first interested in Hunter?”
“Are you kidding me? Absolutely.”
“Seriously?” The woman was beautiful. She had that classic blond, thin, model look going on.
“Oh yeah. I’ll never forget the day I first saw him. I don’t know if you remember, but nearly everyone knew the Stone brothers were coming. Eligible rich bachelors. People were flocking to get a chance to see them. Single. Attached. Married. Straight. Gay. They were all crawling over each other to get a look.”
I did remember the hub bub when it was announced they were coming to oversee training on the new electronic medical record software. “I remember.”
“There were only a core group of us who were involved with the initial trial, but that didn’t stop a parade of people walking by trying to get a glimpse of them. Morgan walked in first. He stayed in the back of the room with a tech team. Almost every jaw in the room dropped when he walked in. He had that Morgan charm, but there was something about him that was a little reserved. He was trying to hide it, but there was some sadness behind those beautiful green eyes.”
“Why was that?”
“He was lost. Still heartbroken over losing Julia. Though he didn’t tell anyone that was the reason.”
“What did he say it was?”
“He didn’t. He just pretended nothing was wrong. Then, in walked Hunter. Oozing with charm and charisma. He started to give his presentation and he locked eyes with me. I saw the flash of desire in his eyes. But, the reputation of the Stone brothers preceded them. They were always on the arm of a beautiful woman. They had a long list of presumed conquests. He found reasons to engage me during the presentation. Then he made sure to speak to me afterward. It continued throughout the week. Then when the training was done at the end of the week, he asked me to dinner. I refused. There was no doubt in my mind that I would be nothing more than a night of distraction. Another conquest. And while I was insanely attracted to him, I knew I didn’t want to be a one night stand. Or a friend with benefits. I kept refusing. He kept pursuing. I finally realized that he really was interested. The rest is history.”
I never knew that part of Sarah’s history with Hunter. I knew he would joke about how she wouldn’t give him the time of day, but I hadn’t realized the rest of it.
“I remember you keeping it low key when you guys started dating. None of us knew it until he showed up here with an enormous bouquet of flowers and a limo to whisk you off.”
She laughed. “Yeah, it bugged him that I wasn’t going public with it. He took matters into his own hands. But, the thing I want you to take away from this is that you are not the only person to feel nervous about how someone feels about them. You just can’t let it consume you.”
I was about to answer, when my phone vibrated. I read the message and grinned.
“Hmmm…who would that be?”
“Jace. He asked me how I was feeling this morning. Told me he had a great time and he can’t stop thinking about me.”
“Go take a minute to flirt with your man. Try to avoid Laura and Noah out there. They will be eager for details. They can wait until we go for drinks. But, I demand details in advance.”
“You got it. Thanks, Sarah.”
I texted Jace back. He suggested we go see a movie. I was feeling more comfortable and as the day went on, I was also feeling the need to see him. The kids had a play date after school, so I decided to stop by the gym on my way home.
When I got to the gym, I didn’t see Jace out on the floor. I headed over to his office and found him sitting at his desk, working on his tablet. I knocked on the open door and he looked up with surprise in his eyes.
“Hey you.” He stood up and walked over to me. “I didn’t expect to see you this afternoon.”
“I just thought I would surprise you and drop in to say hello.”
He pulled me into a hug. “I’m glad you did. Come in.” He broke the hug and closed the door.
I watched as his eyes moved up and down my body.
“You are not playing fair,” he said as she shook his head.
“What do you mean?”
“You come strolling into my office. Looking fucking amazing in that outfit. All I want to do is pull up that skirt and fuck you right here on my desk.”
I felt the blush that spread across my face and chest. I shifted on my feet.
Jace’s eyes narrowed as he took me in.
“Would you like that, baby? Would you like me to take you right here?”
Yes. But, would there be time before his next client? What if someone walked in? I glanced at the clock on the wall.
“Eyes here. On me. Don’t worry about anything else. Do you want my cock inside you, Madison?”
“Fuck yes.” Where did that come from?
Jace walked over to the door. I heard the lock click. I watched as he walked toward me and couldn’t help but to marvel at how beautiful and strong he was.
“Is that what you came here for today?”
Did I? I hadn’t really thought about it, but yeah.
“I couldn’t get you off my mind today. I needed to see you. Be with you.” The admission came tumbling out of me.
“I like hearing that. More than you could possibly know.”
“Yeah?”
“Yeah. Come here, Madison. Take what you came here for.”
His words filled me with a courage and need I didn’t know I was capable of. I stepped closer to him and grabbed fistfuls of his tee shirt. A grin spread across his handsome face. I pulled him hard against me and brought my lips to his. I ran my tongue across his lips, and he parted his lips so I could slip my tongue in his mouth. My hands went to his hair and I pulled him closer.
He kissed me back. His hands roamed over my ass and he pulled me against him until I could feel his hard cock pressing against me.
I broke the kiss so I could pull his shirt off. He started to work on the buttons of my blouse until my shirt was open down to my stomach. His hands played with my breasts and he kissed my neck. He pulled the cups of my bra down until my breasts were exposed. He brought his lips to my left nipple and started to suck.
I pulled at the elastic of his shorts and ran my hand down until I was cupping his hard cock. I ran my thumb over the tip and then started to stroke him. He moaned and gently bit my nipple.
“I need you Jace.”
He grabbed me by the hand and pulled me around to his desk. He pushed his work aside and pulled my skirt to my hips and then took off my panties. He picked me up and plopped me down on the desk. He sat in his chair, grabbed my legs, pulled them over his shoulders and started to lick my clit. I leaned back on my arms and let my head hang back.
In one night, he had learned my body well. He knew just the right stroke, the right pressure, and in a matter of seconds, my body was shaking.
“Fuck. Right there,” I moaned.
He stopped and looked up at me. “I’m not stopping until you come all over my face.” Then he dove back between my legs.
I was so close. So crazed with need. I started moving my hips. Pushing myself harder against him. His hands moved to my ass and he pulled my pussy harder against his mouth.
I went over the edge. I called out his name over and over. For a brief second I wondered if anyone could hear me, but it felt so damn good, I didn’t care. He didn’t stop until my body went limp.
“That was so fucking beautiful to watch.”
He stood up and then grabbed a condom from his wallet.
“If you
keep making surprise visits, I am going to need to keep stock in my office.”
“Don’t put that on yet. There’s something I want to do.”
I pulled his shorts down and then pushed him down into his chair. I stood in front of him and looked down into his eyes. My shirt was still half unbuttoned, the cups of my bra still pulled down with my breasts spilling over. My skirt had slipped back down into place and I was still wearing my heels. There was something sexy and erotic about it. Dirty. I stared into Jace’s eyes while I brought myself down to my knees. He inhaled quickly in anticipation.
My eyes never left his as I grabbed his cock in my hand and stroked him up and down. I watched his face as I touched him. Learning what he liked. What spots made it hard for him to keep eye contact.
I brought my tongue to him and retraced the steps my hand took. His hands gripped the arms of the chair. My tongue swirled around the head of his cock, concentrating on the underside. I was rewarded with a deep moan. My hand stroked him while I continued to work him with my tongue, and I could feel as he got even harder. The thought of bringing him so much pleasure excited me, and I brought him deeper into my mouth. Working him down to the back of my throat.
“Fuck baby. Just like that.”
He brought his hand to the back of my head and tangled his fingers in my hair. His hips arched off the chair as he pressed his hand down on my head. I sucked him harder until suddenly he gently pulled me away by my hair. I looked up at him.
His expression was intense. His eyes full of desire and need. He pulled me to my feet as he stood up. Not a word was spoken between us. He spun me around so that I was facing his desk and then bent me over it. He pulled my skirt up to my hips. I could hear him tearing open the condom package. I looked up at that door and thought about what someone would see if they walked in. Me bent over Jace’s desk. My shirt open. Jace naked behind me. I knew the door was locked, but the idea of someone catching us was enticing.
Jace’s finger played with my clit then I could feel the tip of his cock straining against me. He pushed in with one quick hard motion. When I gasped from the intensity of it, he paused. I encouraged him to keep going. I felt empowered knowing he wanted me that badly.
His hands went to my hips and he gripped me tight as he fucked me. This was different from the night before. This was lust driven need. That thought along with the sounds of flesh hitting flesh already had me close. I could tell by the change in Jace’s rhythm that he was close too. I was so close. Teetering on the edge.
“Come for me, baby.”
My body responded to the command spoken in his deep sexy voice. His office was filled with the sounds of our moans. The squeak of his desk as it shifted on the floor.
Then it was quiet except for the sounds of our accelerated breaths. Jace helped me to stand and turned me around to face him again. He brought my face to his and kissed me gently on the lips.
“I’ll be right back.” He pulled up his shorts and headed to the bathroom attached to his office to throw out the condom. I heard water running and he came back with two small hand towels. He sat me back on his desk and cleaned me up with one towel and then dried me off with the other. It was a very intimate gesture. He buttoned my blouse and then ran his fingers through my hair straightening it a bit.
He kissed my forehead before reaching for his tee shirt and pulling it back on. Then he grabbed two bottles of water from his mini fridge and handed me one.
“Thank you.”
Jace sat down in one of the chairs that he had for his clients to use and motioned for me to sit down in the other.
“I had no idea this was how my day was going to go. Talk about a happy surprise.” He laughed and I couldn’t help but to laugh with him.
“Do you need to unlock the door in case someone needs you?” I asked him.
“They can knock.” He seemed completely unconcerned.
“They might figure out what we were doing.”
“I think there are at least a few people who have already figured that out. We weren’t exactly quiet.”
The notion that had excited me earlier now had me blushing.
“Don’t let it worry you. We aren’t the first to have sex at the gym and we won’t be the last.”
“Seriously?”
“Absolutely. Morgan and Julia can’t get enough of each other. Sometimes when the kids are here at Pebbles, they take advantage of the alone time. Hunter and Sarah have disappeared in Hunter’s office from time to time. A couple of the other trainers have had their significant others in their office too.”
“Trey?”
“Nah. Trey hasn’t been seriously involved with someone for quite some time and none of us would bring a quick hook up to work.”
I couldn’t help but to laugh at the thought of all the action that the gym walls had seen.
“What do they put in the water around here? And where do you people get the energy after working out all day?”
He chuckled. “It’s the endorphins,” he said as he winked at me.
“So, they are no strangers to you bringing someone in here for some extracurricular activities.” I tried to keep my expression as neutral as possible.
“Oh, that was smooth. No, they are not used to it since you are the first woman I have had sex with in here. Did that answer your question?”
I bit my cheek to keep a straight face and nodded.
“Good. Now, I have a question for you. How much trouble did your ex give you this morning?”
“How did you know?” For a half of a second I wondered if Sarah had said anything to him.
“There was no way he would be able to resist since he knew we went out last night. I know the type.”
Those were almost the exact same words that Ralph had used. I wasn’t so sure when Ralph made his declaration, but with Jace, there wasn’t a doubt in my mind that he knew exactly what he was talking about.
I was hesitant to tell him what happened. I felt bad telling Jace what Ralph said about him. And I wasn’t sure I wanted to tell him what he said about me.
“I want honesty between us, Madison. Tell me what he said.”
He wanted honesty. I could give him that, but with a healthy dose of sugar coating.
“He let me know that he doubts your sincerity about your interest in me. He thinks you are looking for a quick roll in the hay.”
He studied me for a long moment. That Jace expression that told you he was reading you down to the deepest corners of your soul.
“I don’t give a shit what he thinks. I want to know what you think. Do you think my interest in you is only for a few good fucks?”
“No, I don’t.” I tried to make sure there was conviction in my voice.
He studied me again. “Good. Look Madison, I for damn sure enjoy having sex with you. And I am sure there will be more times like today when we get caught up in the moment and go for it. At least I hope there are. But, that doesn’t mean I don’t want to pursue a relationship with you. I hope I have been clear with my intentions.”
“You have been.”
“Okay. I’m glad we are on the same page. What else did he say?”
“Nothing important.”
“I beg to differ. At least you found it important. I suspect it wasn’t just the fact you were missing me that prompted this visit.”
I had to throw him something. I went for the most benign thing.
“He has brought up our age difference.”
The expression on his face said he realized there was more, but he didn’t push me on it.
“He’s insecure. The only way he knows how to mask that and how to make him feel good about himself is to try to make you insecure. Don’t let him do that to you. You deserve better.”
“I don’t want to talk about him anymore. You talked about wanting to go to the movies. Let’s decide what to see.”
He wrinkled his brow. Clearly I was changing the subject, but I knew it didn’t escape him that I was trying to avoid talking
about the other things Ralph said to me. He looked frustrated but didn’t push the matter.
We talked about movies and made plans. He was concerned that Ralph might say he changed his mind last minute and not take the kids. He wasn’t wrong. He had done it before and was likely to do it again. Jace told me he didn’t want me to get upset if that happened. That we could always go another time. Make other plans.
I told him that I would talk to Sarah about being a backup and that I had a babysitter I had used in the past and would see if she was still available so that we didn’t have to depend on Ralph in the future.
That week, I spoke to Sarah and she again offered to be my backup babysitter for movie night if Ralph played any games. Sure enough, he told me on Monday that he couldn’t take the kids on Wednesday and had to take them Tuesday instead. I called Sarah in frustration, but she once again told me she was more than happy to watch the kids. I had spoken to the girl who had sat for me in the past and she was happy to sit for me again, but she wasn’t going to be able to start until the following week.
Then like clockwork, Ralph texted me early evening on Tuesday and told me he had an unexpected change in plans and would be dropping the kids back early. He would take them on Wednesday instead. I was already on my way to the gym and I told him to meet me there in the parking lot.
I was just getting out of my car when I saw Ralph pull into the parking lot. The kids jumped out of the car and ran over to give me a hug. Ralph did not say a word, he just looked at me with that same indignant and disapproving glare.
Then Ryan piped up. “Hey! There’s Sophia’s Mom! And Jace! Can we say hi?”
My gaze shot over in the direction Ryan was pointing. Jace and Julia were standing outside the gym having a conversation. Whatever they were talking about, it looked lighthearted and then I saw Julia say something and Jace busted out laughing. I resisted looking over at Ralph but then I heard him let out a sarcastic chuckle.
My eyes darted over to look at him before I could stop myself. He made a point of looking in the direction of Jace and Julia and then over to me. I wanted to smack that arrogant smirk off his face.
