  My building was in the heart of downtown Roanoke. The glass building stretched 20 floors up from the bottom and reflected the sunlight when I pulled into my parking spot. I revved the engine of my Camaro as I sat idle in my spot. The HEMI vibrated the seats inside of my vehicle as a few people walked by. We shared our building with a few other companies, but I made sure that I had the highest floor. I didn’t want to feel like anybody was above me at any time, so the top floor was the only thing I would settle for.

  After a few minutes passed by, I climbed out of my car and made my way up to the office. “Hey, Gavin,” my secretary said as she walked into my office. I took my suit coat off and hung it from the hook on the wall. She held a small stack of papers in her hand. Her red lipstick coated her lips like a fire engine. Her brunette hair was pulled into a ponytail, and her mini-skirt stopped just above her knees, exposing her long, sexy legs.

  “Hey, Amber. Good to see you this morning.”

  “Likewise.” She closed the door behind her, then placed the papers on my desk. “These are here for your review,” she said as she leaned forward. Her blouse was cut low in the front, so I could see the top of her breasts while she spoke, “And nobody will be in the office today until around 11:30 am.”

  She smiled. “Oh,” I said as I took my seat in front of a large, glass window, “Is that right? Well, what do you think we can do while we have some time alone?”

  Her smile turned into a sexy, seductive glare as she walked around the desk and kneeled in front of me. “Well, I know one thing for sure. It could be two, but um, my friend is visiting me this month.’”

  “I see.” She wrestled my belt buckle loose and pulled my dick out. I leaned my head back as she wrapped her lips around my penis, bobbing her head up and down while she stroked the shaft. She pulled her head off and spat onto it, stroking it gently while she licked the pre-cum from her lips. I took my hand and forced her back down onto my dick.

  She gagged as she pushed my meat inside her mouth as far as it could go. The tip of my penis brushed against the back of her throat, then she removed her mouth and stroked my dick again. “Fuck,” I said as I gripped the edge of my chair. “Fuck. Don’t stop. Don’t stop. Put your fuckin’ mouth back on it.”

  She created a slobbery mess while she slid her tongue up and down my penis. She opened her mouth wide and stuck her tongue out, waiting for me to cum. I stroked my dick until I shot it into her mouth. She smiled and used her tongue to lick cum from around her mouth, then, with her finger, she brushed the rest of it into her mouth.

  My heavy breathing decreased as she wiped her mouth and stood to her feet. “Well, I hope that gets you off… to a good day.” I kept my eyes on her ass while she walked back to the other side of the desk. I had been having sex with my assistant for the past four months. It all started one late night after work. I couldn’t tell if she was flirting with me, but when she bent over to pick something up from the ground, I knew what she was doing. Ever since that night, we’d been fucking left and right whenever we got the chance.

  “Oh, before I forget, some men are coming in from overseas this Friday, and you have to keep them busy this weekend. The Stanton Firm?”

  “The Stanton Firm?” I asked, buckling my pants. “What the fuck? How long ago was this planned?”

  She snatched a sheet of paper from her folder and slid it onto my desk. “The memo was sent out as a reminder almost two weeks ago today. I knew you probably had forgotten, so I took the liberty of printing it out so you could see it with your own eyes.”

  I grabbed the paper and looked at what she printed. “Fuck me,” I said. “Fuck me.”

  “I would, but you know…”

  I looked at her, “No, not you. Fuck. I planned shit with Vinny this weekend. He is looking forward to it, and he is going to be crushed if I cancel on him again.”

  “Oh, I see. Well, I don’t know what you’re going to do, but they are coming, and if you don’t show them a good time, I am sure they will take their business elsewhere.”

  “Fuck!” I leaned back in my seat and spun around to face the window. The sunlight illuminated everything below me as I shook my head. I saw Amber’s faint reflection in the glass.

  “Do you need anything else, Gavin?”

  “No. I’m fine for now.”

  “Okay. Just let me know.”

  I exhaled as she closed the door behind her. I hated disappointing Vinny, and I knew that, at times, he wished that he lived with his mother. I couldn’t blame him, either. As far as I could see, I had been a shitty ass father for him.

  Chapter Two

  BETHANY

  I swiped at my alarm until I knocked it onto the floor. The annoying buzz traveled beneath my bed as my phone slid into a place that I couldn’t reach. Great. As I tried to get out of my bed, my feet entangled into the covers and sent me tumbling to the floor. I shook my head and reached for my phone. After I was finally able to corral it, I looked at the time. It was 5:30 am, and I had to get up and get ready for work.

  I walked to the kitchen just beyond the front door of my two-bedroom starter home. It wasn’t as big as I wanted it to be, but it was mine, and I took pride in that. I shoved two pieces of bread into the toaster and then grabbed the butter and jelly out of the refrigerator. I just needed a little something to hold me over until I got to work. The teachers always had doughnuts and bagels in the break room that everyone could help themselves to.

  I loved my job. I worked at Morris Elementary as the principal’s assistant. I didn’t think I would be able to get the job when I applied because I didn’t have the necessary experience. But after Principal Jones met with me during the interview, he hired me right on the spot. I needed that job, though, especially since I didn’t want to go back to my old lifestyle as a stripper. I did what I had to do back then, and that was how I met my ex-boyfriend. Those were some of the worst years of my life, and I was happy just to have made it out alive. This new job is not something permanent, but for now, it would do. I only had another year before I finished school, but as the time to graduate neared, I began to get cold feet.

  I flinched when the toast popped up in the toaster. Get a hold of yourself, Bethany. I slipped the toast onto my plate and covered one side with butter and jelly. When I took my seat at the table, I grabbed the book that I kept there to read each morning. Love Waits. I read the title out loud, then turned to the last chapter I left off on. I didn’t know why I tortured myself with these love stories because they did nothing but create fantasies in my mind that I would never live out.

  A lonely woman just happens to find the right man; then he helps her through some traumatic time in her life and, pow, all of a sudden, they are married and live happily ever after. I shook my head at the idea, but for some reason, I couldn’t put the book down. I figured that if I wouldn’t be able to live that type of life on my own; the least I could do is read about it and imagine myself in the leading woman’s position.

  My love life had been anything but desirable. My last boyfriend was abusive and controlling. Things started off well enough, but it didn’t take long for his true colors to show. I had to get a restraining order against him, and even then, he would still pop up unannounced from time to time, “just wanting to talk.” I had to remove myself from social media because he would always find a way to locate me and give me his lame ass excuses as to why he messed up before. “I swear I have changed, Bethany. Please. Please! Just let me show you.”

  It was all too little and much too late. We tried a number of times before, and it always ended the same way. I was ready for love, but if it meant that I had to get back with him, then I was just going to be single for the rest of my life. After I finished my breakfast, I slid the book back to the center of the table and got ready for work.

  Morris Elementary was twenty minutes away from where I lived. Everyone there was friendly and, even though I wasn’t a teacher, the faculty treated me like I was. I felt like I was a part of a family at the ele
mentary school, and that was one thing that kept me around. When I got out of the car, I headed inside the building.

  “Hey, Bethany! Good morning!”

  “Good morning, Ms. Beautiful, um, I mean Ms. Cindy. How are you doing today?”

  She blushed. “I am good! It is always a joy to see you in the morning. It helps me start my day.” She handed me a plate of doughnuts. “I grabbed you a few from the teacher’s lounge before the rest of the wolves got there and demolished everything. Do you want one?”

  “Um…” I scanned through the plate of doughnuts. “No, I think I am going to grab a bagel instead. Were there any more left?”

  She laughed. Her smile pushed her cheeks up and for the moment, covered the crow’s feet the clung to the edge of her eyes. “Honey, yes. There are more of those than anything. You know these folks around here don’t eat healthy. Well, everyone except you. I see why you have that nice figure now.”

  “Oh, Ms. Cindy, stop it. You are just trying to make me feel good.”

  “Nope, honey, you look good, and you know it. But I need to go ahead and get to my class before these children get in there and run amuck. I’ll see you around.”

  “Yes, you will.”

  Ms. Cindy was one of the older teachers at the school. She was in her upper forties, but she carried herself as if she was twenty years younger. She was the sweetheart of the school, and she always went out of her way to make us smile. “And look who it is! Diva!” I put my hand on my hip and posed for Sharon as I stood in the doorway. “Look at you, looking as cute a button! Girl, how do you keep that slim shape of yours?”

  I let the door close behind me, “Well, you might need to cut back on those doughnuts,” I said, pointing at her plate full of junk food.

  “Yeah,” she said as she picked up a doughnut, “well, if that is what it takes, then I am not cut out for it. I need my sweets, honey. No doubt about that.”

  She smiled as I walked to the box of bagels and scooped one out. “Yeah, I hear you. I was that way before I made a change to not eat so many sweets. It’ll come, but I guess until then, enjoy yourself.”

  “I will. Oh, and Derrick is looking for you.”

  I sighed, “Lord, again? What does he want now?”

  “You know what he wants.” She winked her eye at me, “He wants some of that–”

  Principal Jones walked into the room before she could finish her words. “Ladies! Good morning! How are we doing today?”

  Sharon stuffed a doughnut in her mouth to hide her smile. I shook my head, “We are good, Principal Jones. Ready to start the day.”

  “That is good to hear!” He walked over to the doughnuts, then looked back in my direction. “Now, I will trust that neither of you will tell my wife that I was eating doughnuts today, right?”

  I laughed. “Um, Principal Jones, I am not getting in the middle of you and your wife. Let’s just hope that when she visits today, she doesn’t ask me because you know I cannot lie to your sweet wife. She is just too nice for that.”

  He closed the box of doughnuts and grabbed a bagel instead, “Yeah. How about I just grab the bagel and avoid all of that? I remember last time she asked you what I ate in the morning, and you told her the truth. She was mad at me all night. I had to sleep on the couch.”

  I laughed. “I am sorry about that, but you know that you have to watch your blood sugar. I won’t snitch on you, but if she asks, I will tell it. I will tell it all.”

  He smiled. “Yes, I know.” He tossed the bagel a few inches into the air and caught it again, “Well, I’ve got what I needed. You women have a wonderful day, and Bethany, I am sure I will see you again in your office.”

  “Sure will.”

  As soon as he left the room, Sharon spoke up again, “Girl, that man is like my father. Every time he comes in the room, I feel like I have to shut up. He always catches me in the middle of saying something I didn’t need to be saying.”

  “Yeah. Well, as long as you know you didn’t need to say it, we can leave it at that.” I placed my bagels in a small box. “I am on my way to my office. Call me if you need me.”

  “Okay, sweetie.”

  I walked out of the room and headed to my office. A few children smiled and waved at me on my way there. Some of the young girls stopped to give me a hug. They felt like they were my own children. I knew that at some point, I would want to start a family and have kids of my own, but at the rate things were going for me now, that seemed like another dream that would never come true. Especially if I had to choose between my ex or Derrick. I may as well sign up to become a nun.

  Chapter Three

  GAVIN

  When we got home, Vinny went straight to the kitchen to grab something to eat like he always did. I went upstairs to take a quick shower so I could go to the gym. Me and one of my best friends, Mike, usually worked out together for a couple of days during the week. It helped me stay in shape and release stress at the same time. It also wasn’t a bad place to check out women. It was usually the busiest around 5 pm, so we aimed for that time to get things going.

  When I got back downstairs, Vinny was seated at the table, finishing his peanut butter and jelly sandwich. “You almost finished, buddy? We’re heading to the gym today.”

  He nodded his head, then got up to clean his plate off. He took a towel and wiped the area he was sitting at, then grabbed his bag. “You’re all set?”

  “Yes, sir. I’m ready.”

  As we drove, we talked about how our days went. Vinny was a straight-A student, and he never gave any of his teachers any trouble. That was a far cry from what I used to be when I was his age. I spent so many days in detention that I lost count by the middle of the school year. It had to be his mother’s genes kicking in. Our personalities were nothing alike, and that was another reason why I think we didn’t mesh the way we should have.

  By the time we got the to the gym, the parking lot was filled with vehicles. I grabbed my phone to call Mike. “Hey, I just showed up. Are you inside?”

  “Yeah, man, I’m in here. There are tons of people though. More than usual.”

  “Alright. I’m on my way in.” He didn’t respond. “Mike? Hello?”

  “Sheesh. I’m sorry, man, but this gorgeous chick just walked by, and I almost forgot who the hell I was for a second, let alone who I was speaking to. Anyways, yeah man, come on in. I just walked out of the locker room, and I’ll be over by the bench press.”

  “Alright.”

  I got out of the car and put my arm around Vinny, and we walked into the gym. Men walked around in compression shirts while women wore tank tops that exposed their mid-sections. “Welcome,” the man behind the desk said as I handed him my card.

  “Hey. How’s it going?”

  “Pretty good, thank you, sir. Enjoy your workout.”

  I kneeled to Vinny, “Alright, bud. Go ahead and go into the kids’ area. I’ll be done working out in about an hour and a half. Did you bring your books?”

  “Yes.”

  “Good. Okay, if there are any problems, you just come get me, okay?”

  “Yes, sir.”

  I kissed him on his forehead and watched him walk into the children’s area. He went to one of the free tables, took out a book from his bag, and started reading as if nobody else was around. On my way to the bench press, I ran into one of the women I used to mess around with almost a year ago, a smoking hot blonde with large breasts and yoga pants who was as aggressive of a woman as I’d ever met.

  “Morgan? How are you doing? Long time no see.”

  She smiled. “Yes, it has been a long time, Gavin. A VERY long time. How have you been?”

  “Oh, I’ve been good. Real good. Do you live around here?”

  “No. I work around here, but I live on the east side. Almost thirty minutes away, you know? I usually come here after I leave work. There isn’t a gym closer to my house.”

  “Okay, okay.” I smiled, admiring the way her flat stomach sat perfectly in her midsectio
n. Her breasts were squeezed tightly beneath her shirt, cultivating their buxom appearance. Her hazel eyes looked more alluring than they did the last time we met and before long, my mind began replaying the intimate times that we shared together.

  “So, um, yeah. Maybe we should hook up again, you know? I don’t live too far from here, and if you’re up for it, I would love to reconnect.”

  She smiled. “So would I, Gavin, but…I’m married.”

  “Married?” I scanned her finger for a ring, but I didn’t spot one.

  “Yes. I’ve been married for about four months now. I don’t wear my ring to the gym because it clangs against the bars and other things that I use. I don’t want to damage it, you know? But yes, I am married.”

  “Wow. I am sorry, I didn’t know. But I should’ve known a woman like you wouldn’t stay single for long.”

  “Well, thank you, Gavin.” She looked at her watch, “And I need to get going. It was good seeing you, though.”

  “You as well.”

  I watched her walk through the doors. Married? I chuckled, then headed to the back of the gym to find Mike. I was surprised that she was married. She didn’t seem like the type of woman who would settle down with one man, but I guess if she was able to, then there was hope for me. I didn’t see it that way though. The only thing I saw in my future was much of the same thing I was experiencing right now: a bunch of different women satisfying me each night until I had enough.

  “About time, man,” Mike said as he loaded another plate onto the weight bar. “I saw you over there talking to some chick, so I didn’t think you would make it. I was expecting you to take a detour with her.”

  I stretched out with a smile on my face, “Nah, man. That was Morgan. I messed around with her a long time ago. I mean, the thought crossed my mind, but she told me she was married.”

  “Married, huh? You said that like it hurt your feelings.”
