  “Touch yourself,” Damon told me as he dropped before me on the mattress, holding himself in his hand. I was scared but reached down to finger my needy clit as I watched him stroke himself slowly. “Are you on any birth control?” I nodded as I got lost in the sensations coursing through my body. “I want you bare. I’m clean and get checked regularly to make sure of that. I never have sex without a condom, but I need to with you. I want to feel all of you.” I knew that I was insane as I nodded, but just needed him, and I’d agree to anything. He watched me masturbate for a few moments longer before he dropped down and drew my legs up to his shoulders. Damon positioned himself in front of me, sliding in slow and deep as I cried out his name. He filled me as I reached for his waist to pull him deeper. Every thrust stretched me, making me wetter as he drove himself in, pushing my legs back as I moaned his name. I wanted to think about the risk involved in this as I was pressed back against the pillows hard with every movement. I wanted to reflect on his past and my future, but all that was in my mind and body was a need for Damon. Hot and wet, I needed him. I pressed my feet against his chest as I grew closer to the release I’d been craving since seeing Damon for the first time.

  It was as good as expected and possibly better as I arched my back and screamed his name. Every nerve ending reacted as my mind went blank and I exploded around him, tightening as he drove himself in and cried out my name. Everything sounded disjointed to me as my body seemed to temporarily leave me and I came to moments later with him beside me, breathing heavily as his eyes went wide. “What just happened?” I asked weakly as I ran my hands over my skin to make sure that I wasn’t dreaming this.

  “Magic,” he responded as he dropped down and faced me. “Fucking magic.”

  I thought back to the rest of the night; the phone call and rushing out to find his car. I thought about what we did in the car together as I looked around this room in shock. This place didn’t belong to either of us, and we’d just had sex in this room. I blushed, feeling guilty as he moved his hand to turn my face. “What is it?” Damon asked me firmly as I licked my swollen lips nervously.

  “It’s just that…this isn’t your place or mine,” I started to say as he soothingly stroked my damp cheek.

  “I want it to be yours,” he said as I shook my hand. “Let me explain, Elisa. My stepfather, Ken, is the first CEO of Elkus Manfredi. He’s a wealthy man and invests in complexes such as this, as many do for financial reasons. This particular one is used for new employees who may be moving from another area and need some time to find a permanent place, which I see you doing in some ways.”

  “I am just an intern that gets paid for part-time work, work that is done with the man I just slept with. Oh, God,” I cried as I covered my face. “This isn’t who I am.”

  “I never thought that you slept with every man that employed you, Elisa. You’ve worked your ass off to get where you are, and this fucking pride that you cling to so tightly is beyond me. Don’t you think that you have a better chance of keeping a job at the firm?” I looked back over at him as a tear slid down my cheek. “Hard work pays off.”

  “Will anyone there see that? Will they think that I worked for anything or that I seduced the boss to get higher in the company or worse yet, taken care of?” I asked brokenly, feeling all the pleasure from the night begin to fade. I closed my eyes as he covered my body with his, fighting the pull as he held my face and stared at me.

  “You never asked me for anything, Elisa. Do you know how many women have tried to seduce me for my wealth or what I could do for them? I’ve never offered any of this to anyone before.” He told me, his eyes hard as he held my arms against the mattress.

  “Why me?” I asked as he dropped over my face slowly, searching my face with a stunned gaze.

  Damon

  I looked into her scared, innocent face as I tried to find an answer to her question. I was still reeling from the way it felt to be inside of Elisa, and I felt my cock harden again just looking at her body. “I…” My voice faded off as I kissed her to stall for time in part, as well as desire. She kissed back, fighting to release her arms as I held them to claim her mouth without interruption. Her tongue was eager against mine as I moved her legs apart and in between them. Elisa moaned as she lifted her hips, making me stare down at them as I pulled away. “Please,” she asked as I slid forward and inside of her. I knew that she was slick with both of us as I slammed into her, hearing her moan as her body covetously tightened around me. “Damon.”

  I kissed her again as I took her over and over, slightly slower than the previous time but still with need. I let her go, believing that she wouldn’t push me away deep inside and she pulled me closer to her. Elisa shocked me further by attempting to move me with her body before she told me to roll over in a hoarse voice. I complied, taking her with me to watch as she rode my cock with her hands pressed to my chest. She was hot and tight, and I watched her rock against me for a long moment before as met her thrust-for-thrust. Her nipples hardened as they bounced with the movement and Elisa cried out as I leaned up to take one between my lips.

  We came together, crying out as she closed her eyes and slowed her movements. It was just as intense as before, and I memorized her face as I shot deep inside of her for the second time. A fleeting image of her with my baby growing inside of her moved through my mind as I pushed the idea away and felt her drop on top of her. I stroked her hair and listened to her uneven breathing as heat flowed between our bodies. “Do you even like your apartment? I think it’s awful.”

  Elisa laughed slightly and pressed her lips to my shoulder. “I hate it. There’s no privacy.”

  “It’s not in a safe area,” I added as I felt her lips against my skin again.

  “There are so many people living there in that small space,” she told me as I slipped my hands down to stroke her back.

  “New employees get this place for six months if they need it, not that Ken bothers to check the numbers. That’s a good amount of time for you to see what happens, seeing as you graduate this year,” I informed her as she dropped her cheek against me.

  “You’re not going to let this go, are you?” Elisa asked as I smiled.

  “No, I’m not. I think this would benefit both of us.” I closed my eyes and relaxed. “Not that I want there to be one, but there is room for a roommate here if you choose one.”

  “If I could stay, I’d love to get my mother here. She lives in a terrible part of the city,” Elisa admitted as my curiosity was piqued. I asked her where and Elisa told me, making me wince. It was a step above the projects.

  “Tell me about her,” I urged her as she kissed my chest.

  “Dad left when I was five and Mom had to take care of me all on her own. She worked so much, leaving me with Gram while she worked two and sometimes three jobs. When I was thirteen, Gram was gone, and I took care of myself mostly. I just watched her work so hard just to keep a roof over my head and food on our table. I did my part by working hard at school to get into a good college just to return the favor.” She sighed. “The internship was a dream. I knew that I had a chance to make something of myself.”

  “That’s why you’re scared,” I said as she slid her hands under my arms.

  “I could lose it all along with my reputation. I won’t be able to do anything for her.” I pulled Elisa to me. “She’s fifty-five and still working two jobs just to keep her horrible apartment.”

  “I will do everything in my power to keep us secret, but I’m not letting you go. You’ll move in here as soon as possible, and we’ll keep that to ourselves, unless you spend time with anybody outside of the building,” I was curious as much as I was concerned, and I waited for her answer.

  “No, not anymore. I’ll tell everyone that I live in the old apartment still if they ask,” Elisa murmured as she trembled in my arms.

  “I’ll get an apartment cleaned up for your mom, too. She deserves to live somewhere safe.” I planned on calling Ken as soon as possible and expl
aining the situation to him, even though it was so unlike me to do so. I couldn’t figure out why I wanted to help Elisa so much…I just did. “It’ll be okay, Elisa.”

  He asked if I was hungry and assured me that he’d order Thai food to be delivered. We dressed to go into the living room, and he showed me through the kitchen a bit as well as building a fire in the impressive fireplace that was just to the left of the television. “This is so nice, Damon. I can’t imagine how much it would cost per month.”

  “Don’t worry about that. Most of it is for employees, and nobody will notice another couple of units being filled. All the residents are appreciative of the opportunity and quiet. You’ll be safe here.” she stared at me as she sat down on the couch beside me and pressed her lips together. I found something to watch on the television as we snuggled together until the food came when we ate with forks from the kitchen and sipped cold water. Damon asked about my scholarship and just what it offered me, nodding when I told him everything plus a little bit of extra money. With the part time job with me, which I intended to keep going, she’d be okay. She even suggested her mom living with her but I wanted time to ourselves and the chance for Elisa just to live on her own for a while. The money didn’t matter. Her safety and happiness did and when I took her upstairs to the other bedroom to show her how much bigger it was. I wanted her to stay in this room because it seemed safer up here, even with the security system that I was going to have installed.

  Elisa walked around the spacious room, peeking into the attached master bathroom and the balcony that would offer an excellent view of the city. “It’s lovely. I can imagine studying up here so peacefully with the slider open when the weather is nice.”

  “I have other plans for this room, “ I told her as she giggled and sat on the king-sized bed.

  I could tell that she was tired from the emotions of the evening as well as the sex we’d shared, letting her fall asleep beside me with nothing more than a soft kiss. Regarding my lifestyle, the sex would be considered vanilla on many levels. In my soul, I knew that it was different, that it had been so much more than a physical connection. I thought back to Sharon earlier tonight and compared the experiences. Sharon was done with Elisa in my mind, and I knew that, and now that I’d felt what it was like to be inside of her I, didn’t want anyone else.

  This was a problem. Elisa was my employee, and this was going against the rules set my me when I took over. I never planned on getting involved with anyone in my company, since I had plenty of women for that in my personal life. I was always strong at separating the two until I saw Elisa’s face, felt the connection between us. It was something that I couldn’t ignore, and I asked myself if I was willing to risk everything for her?

  I finally slept beside her, something that was not normally part of my life. I always sent them away when I was finished and slept alone.

  Everything was different now.

  Elisa woke up late since we’d left her purse with her phone in it downstairs, panicking since she was already late for classes. I calmed her down and made some coffee, assuring her that she was at the top of her class and that one day wouldn’t destroy that. It was disconcerting for me to see how obsessed Elisa was with doing what was expected of her day in and day out. Elisa had been pressured from an early age through no fault of her own, and I noted the slight circles under her eyes as she sipped coffee on the balcony. I wondered how Elisa viewed this offer of mine; as relief or just more pressure on her shoulders. Elisa was not used to people helping her apart from her mother, something that ultimately made her work twice as hard for anything that she wanted.

  I could see that she was ready to jump out of her own skin and I was willing to do anything to soothe her at this moment. I worked hard in a different way, without the pressure of finances. I understood that was a heavy load for someone that didn’t have enough to make their life work.

  I talked her into some late breakfast, sending Mark for some of the best bagels in the city and some more coffee as she nodded. I loved Elisa’s curvy little body, and I wanted to keep it that way. I didn’t appreciate small women that worked out too much at a gym. I was all for being healthy, but I liked a little meat on women as well to add to the excitement in the bedroom. A bony ass was not fun to spank, but Elisa’s was just full enough to grab and mark as I wanted to.

  I watched her eat a muffin and drink more coffee, seemingly calmer and ready to tackle the rest of her day. She looked at me, and I saw the hesitation in her face. “I work with you today. Will that be awkward?”

  “No, it will be better. You’re an excellent employee, with or without this arrangement. Never think otherwise,” I assured Elisa as I checked the microwave and noted the time. I had blown off a lot of my own routine this morning, something that bothered me as I took my last sip of coffee. I’d make an excuse to everyone even though I didn’t need to be at work as early as I arrived. “I am going to head to my place to get ready for work. Are you okay here or do you need Mark to get you home to change?”

  “I brought clothes and things here for today, but thank you.” Her smile was soft and beautiful, and I stepped forward to kiss her, my hands cupped around her face. “I don’t think that thank you is enough to say, Damon. There’s so much more, and I don’t understand any of this, but thank you.”

  I kissed her again before heading to the car and showering quickly before dressing for the office. I couldn’t help but think back to the night and the incredible way that it made me feel. I was smiling when I stepped back into the car at my place, and Mark looked at me. “Is this serious?”

  “Possibly,” I replied as he started the car. “I don’t know what to make of it, Mark. That was never my style.”

  “Somethings happen when they’re meant to, Damon. This might be one of those times.” I nodded at his words as I leaned back against the seat and imagined Elisa in here with me.

  Elisa

  I took a shower in the huge marble space with three shower heads. Three! I’d never heard of such a thing before but it felt so good. Somehow, there were products in there already, and I wondered if Damon planned this ahead of time, wanting me to say yes. I loved the idea, but at the same time, it was too much. It wasn’t something that I’d earned for myself, and I didn’t take help easily, apart from my college scholarship.

  Though I worked for that, didn’t I? I sacrificed everything for that, things that normal high school students enjoy. Maybe this was when I start to reap my rewards, though sleeping with my boss and taking an apartment from him was not one of my goals back then. I stepped out of the shower and dried myself off with the soft towels, looking over the counter and the mirror as I dried my hair. It was beautiful in here, and my bathroom at the other apartment would fit inside of this room. I wouldn’t have to share it with anyone.

  It just didn’t feel right. Though this was just a two-bedroom apartment, it was so spacious. It was too big for just me and I thought about having Mom move in with me, despite Damon’s protests. Were we going to keep seeing one another outside of work and that was why he protested? It would be awkward to be with him the way that I was last night with someone else home at night since we clearly had incredible sexual chemistry.

  What else was there, though?

  I put on a little makeup to cover the circles under my eyes and then dressed in the black skirt and silk t-shirt that I’d brought along with me, frowning at the wrinkles that were in the red shirt despite my careful packing of it. They weren’t terrible, and it was Friday, a day that everyone dressed casually unless they had a meeting. This would be considered dressy but I liked wearing feminine clothes to work, and I loved that Damon wore suits every day. I blushed at the idea of seeing him again today when I went to his office. Last night was my first time at enjoying sex without inhibitions, shocking myself the second time when I took control. I could tell that he preferred it and my mind wandered to how hard he liked to go with that. I read books and heard girls talk at school, and it seemed to be a thi
ng. I didn’t understand it all completely, but I could ask him. I blushed. How embarrassing.

  I left the apartment with my backpack slung over my shoulders and looked around carefully at my surroundings during the day. It was quiet and safe to assume that most of these people worked days as I went to the main street and started to walk towards the office. It was only a couple of blocks away, and I could see this being very convenient for someone that worked for Elkus Manfredi that had just moved or didn’t have a car, like me. The walk was pleasant, and at night, it wouldn’t be too terrible. I wanted to keep the apartment, badly. It would help me so much with school, and I could study productively from home over going to a noisy coffee shop and spending money I didn’t have. That was my option when I didn’t want to take a car back to school to use the library if I’d already been home, but either option wasn’t pleasant.

  I thought of what else I could do alone and blushed as I walked through the glass doors.

  I joined my team for the first part of the day, feeling inspired and adding a lot to the current project as Autumn smiled at me. She was the most supportive besides Vince and seemed to drop the subject of Damon. I’d never let her find out about us, and I smiled back, thankful for her notice of my enthusiasm. We headed out to lunch as a group, all excited about what was coming together as we headed to the deli down the street. Devin was just walking inside, and I looked forward in concern as I wondered if there would be any confrontation once we were together inside. Autumn called his name as she opened the door to go inside and he glanced up and let his gaze pass over the group of us. There was no change in expression when he saw me and I let out a sigh of relief. “Join us?” He called out, and Autumn nodded as I forced a small smile on my face.
