“You’re beautiful,” she said, softly running her thumb over my cheek.
At that moment, with the intense way she was looking at me, I felt beautiful. “So are you,” I said softly.
She smiled and lowered herself down so that her body was intimately pressed against mine. She planted a kiss over my neck and slowly followed a trail down to my chest.
My body involuntarily squirmed under hers as it burned in desperate need. She kissed me across my torso and one of her hands skimmed over my belly. I was so turned on, my toes were curling while my feet trembled.
I grabbed a fistful of the sheets beneath me as her hand trailed up from my belly to my ribs and over my breast. I could feel my nipples hardening over my bra at her touch as sweet sensations traveled all over my body.
She moved her hand to my back and unhooked my bra as her lips kissed the rise of my breasts and my chest rose to meet her halfway. She slowly pulled away the bra and her lips closed around one nipple, drawing a shuddering effect from me.
Her mouth moved sensually around my nipple as her tongue coaxed it and I nearly reached climax. She diverted her attention to the other nipple and a moan escaped my lips.
I surrendered to the sweet torture as both her hands now cupped my breasts, rhythmically stroking my nipples with her thumbs and index fingers while her lips kissed the valley in between.
At that point, my whole body was so overwhelmed, all the sensations fled to the damp spot between my legs, making me convulse in an unexpected but amazing orgasm. I was unconcerned about concealing my moans as they filled the room synchronizing with the pleasure ricocheting back and forth within my body.
She stopped momentarily to allow me to calm down and when I did, I bit my lower lip and looked down to find her watching me with a pleased smile across her face. I thought she’d stop, but instead, she lowered her hand down and moved it under my panties.
Her fingers circled over my slickness and she groaned, then suddenly she got to her knees and removed my undies, carelessly tossing them on the floor. She got back on top of me and recaptured my lips in a passionate kiss as her fingers moved over my clitoris and I moaned in pleasure.
God, she was good at this and my body was so responsive to her. The excitement coursing through me felt like I’d been shot up with ecstasy.
She parted my legs with her knee and slid inside me, drawing a cry of extraordinary pleasure from my lips while she rained kisses over my neck. My body rocked to the rhythm of her steady thrusts as my cries filled the room and before long, my muscles tightened around her fingers, giving way to another mind-blowing orgasm.
My body continued to spasm in pleasure as I tried to control my heavy breathing and my pulse raced. She rested her forehead over mine and kissed me as she shifted her weight off of me.
A while later, I flickered my eyes open when my body relaxed and found her soft gaze on me. I smiled at her in unbelievable delight and leaned in to kiss her. When she responded, I moved my hand over her cheek and deepened the kiss.
I wanted to make love to her and get to know her as intimately as she’d just gotten to know me, so I trailed slow light kisses along her ear, down her neck and moved on top of her, gently running my hand over her body and sliding against the satin gown she still had on.
Her skin was smooth and warm and she smelled like heaven. She quivered beneath me and my arousal awoke again in response to her. I laid soft kisses across her torso, not letting the gown concealing her nudity stop me.
I moved my hands over her breasts and covered one of her erect nipples with my mouth over the satin gown. When she sighed under me, another wave of arousal swayed through me and I fought to restrain myself from being consumed by my desire for her.
I kissed my way down her body and stopped at her waist, reaching for the hem of her gown over her hip. I slowly pulled it up and my eyes widened as I hungrily absorbed the erotic image of her.
I lowered my body and planted a kiss on her inner thigh, then followed a trail up over the lacy fabric of her red undies as I continued to reveal bit after bit of flawless flesh.
I laid feather light kisses across her belly and paused to dip my tongue in her inverted navel, which caused her to release a moan. When I finally pulled the gown over her breasts, I pulled back to look at her.
She had the body of a goddess. The sight of her lying on the bed exposed for me made me growl in lust. I pulled the gown over her head and my lips sought hers in a fierce kiss.
It was extremely gratifying to finally be able to express myself in ways I’d only dreamed of. The smooth friction of her nudity against mine nearly drove me to climax and I had to break the kiss to calm myself.
I continued with my intimate exploration, loving the movement of her body under mine and the moans and sighs that escaped her lips. I could make love to her all day everyday for the rest of my life.
I playfully teased one of her nipples with my tongue while my fingers played with the other one, and she arched up her lower abdomen. I kissed my way down her body, painting the erotic image of her sexy body in my mind because I never wanted to forget that moment.
Every inch of her tasted wonderful and her sweet scent was now deeply ingrained in me. The sexy sounds escaping her mouth were music to my ears, and the feel of her silken skin against my touch was divine.
I planted soft kisses over the lacy fabric and her body continued to shudder beneath me. I wanted to make her lose control. I wanted to please her in an unmatched manner so that no one else would ever be good enough for her. I wanted to make her mine and I needed her to feel it. Feel it so deeply and intensely, she’d never forget me even if she tried.
I eased the undies off her long slender legs and slowly ran my fingers over the outline of her femininity, softly following the trail with my lips and her body responded by slowly arching up to meet my touch.
I ran the tip of my tongue over the small protruding pink bud, gently teasing it before I closed my mouth over her and kissed her, finally learning her exquisite taste. The sound of her cries fueled my desire for her as I slid my tongue inside her, slithering back and forth in a relentless motion.
I went crazy for her, knowing that I was falling deeper and deeper into the abyss of my feelings for her, but I didn’t care. I lived for that moment with her as she groaned in excruciating delight.
The uncontrollable spastic movements of her hips told me I had succeeded in making her lose control as her muscles tightened and her body convulsed in a violent orgasm.
I rested my head on her lower abdomen and she placed her hand over my head as I waited for my beating heart to return to its normal rate. After a moment, I pulled myself up and went to rest my head on her chest and I drifted off to sleep listening to the beautiful sound of her heartbeat.
Chapter Thirty-Four
I woke up the following morning to find myself alone in a large comfortable bed and looked around the room to realize I hadn’t noticed its mass size, luxurious furnishings and tasteful décor.
I replayed the scenes from the previous night and my heart started racing. I couldn’t believe I’d spent the night making love to Mrs. Gallagher. My body felt glorious as the memories reawakened my sexual yearning.
I remembered her making love to me, kissing me, touching me and reaching climax from the initial intensity of it all and my cheeks turned scarlet. I remembered her losing control while exploring her and a rush of heat overwhelmed my body.
Where was she? I wondered as I got out of bed and reached for the robe she’d been wearing the previous night. I put it over my nose, deeply inhaling her rich delicious scent then put it on and walked out of the bedroom. I walked down the corridor, following the faint sound of her voice to the living room.
She looked absolutely seductive in a black robe and gown while she spoke on the phone. When she saw me, she gave me a small smile and I decided to let her finish her phone call as I looked around the room.
My sight had been compromised the previous night and
I hadn’t seen much but now that it was daytime, I could clearly see what I’d been unable to. One side of the living room wall was made of sliding glass doors. On closer inspection, I noticed the large balcony with several chairs and a table.
I made my way over and looked out into the city. The view was a magnificent sight because of the location of the building. I stood there enjoying it for a while and when I could no longer hear Mrs. Gallagher’s voice, I turned to find her standing right behind me.
She planted a kiss on my shoulder blade and a warm feeling moved through me. I turned to face her and she leaned in and captured my lips in a kiss. When we pulled apart, she softly asked, “Would you like some coffee?”
“Yes,” I said.
She went to the kitchen which was separated from the living room by a large partitioned marble countertop and I sat down on one of the stools spaciously built along the kitchen island, watching her as she poured the coffee in to two mugs.
“Did you enjoy the gala dinner last night?” she asked.
“Yes, it was nice being around everyone.” I was desperately hoping our night of passion had opened other channels between us and we could now be more than just employer-employee. “How about you?” I asked.
She handed me a steaming mug and I closed my hands around it as she came to sit beside me.
“I was only there briefly.”
I took a sip of the coffee, loving the taste and burning sensation on my tongue. Being so close to her after the passionate night we’d shared was overwhelming, but I wasn’t going to let it put me back in my shell.
I faced her in order to share my thoughts about our amazing night together and found her staring at me. Specifically, my exposed cleavage since I wasn’t wearing anything underneath the robe.
I was pleased to learn she found me attractive. When her gaze rose and met mine, she got to her feet and closed the distance between us. I held my breath when she placed her hand over my thigh, slowly trailed it down to my knee then parted my legs.
She occupied the space between my legs so that our bodies were almost touching, and leaned forward. She blew softly in my ear and my body shuddered awake in desire.
She slowly ran her hands over my body against the soft satin and planted a light kiss on my throat. I tried to harness my growing excitement and closed my eyes when her hands parted the robe and made physical contact.
When her lips met mine, she was soft but passionate. I responded to her in need and moaned against her mouth when her hands covered my breasts and her fingers gently glided against my nipples.
She deepened the kiss, coaxing my tongue with hers and the effect created a magnitude of sensations that all went to concentrate on my sex. Just when I thought I couldn’t take it anymore, she broke the kiss and followed a trail down to my breasts with her lips.
She tenderly teased my nipples with her tongue while her hands explored my back, my stomach and my thighs. Then her lips slowly moved back up my neck and met my lips. After a moment, she pulled away to look at me.
I was panting in arousal and desire. I wanted her so badly it hurt and I knew she could tell because when her hand closed over my sex, the evidence was there.
She moved her left arm around my waist, pulling me closer and used her fingers to explore my slickness. I groaned at the wonderful effect of her touch and squeezed my eyes shut.
I wanted to feel her inside me but she was teasing the protruding bud with such ease, it appeared she was in no rush. I couldn’t speak for myself because what she was doing to me was driving me closer and closer over the cliff.
When she stopped, I inhaled deeply in an attempt to calm myself and opened my eyes as I wrapped my arms around her neck. Her fingers slowly resumed their sweet torture and shortly after, she slipped them gently inside me all the while watching me, gauging my reaction. I loved what she was doing to me.
She recaptured my lips but I could barely respond to the kiss because my body was in agonizing bliss as she took me higher, driving me closer and closer to the edge until I couldn’t take the sweet torment anymore. I cried out in pleasure as she continued with her firm gentle thrusts and a powerful orgasm seized my body, leaving me in a shuddering mess in her arms.
I rested my forehead on her shoulder. When I recovered, she lifted up my chin and softly kissed me. I couldn’t believe how gentle a lover she was.
“Let’s go back to bed,” she said against my lips and I eagerly nodded.
We spent the rest of morning hours making love. I couldn’t get enough of her. She was a dream I’d desired so much from afar and now that I had a chance to touch that dream, to feel it and continuously relive it, I couldn’t stop.
Every time one of us reached sexual peak, we’d take a moment to catch our breath and before we knew it, we’d start kissing, which led to touching and shortly after, we’d be at it again.
It was the best time of my life. I got to explore Mrs. Gallagher’s body in a slow intimate manner and kissed every inch of her skin, binding her image to my heart and mind for all of eternity.
Finally, when we grew tired, we both fell back asleep. I didn’t know how long I was out but when I woke up, I felt absolutely wonderful. I stretched out my arm to feel for her but the space she’d been occupying was empty.
I got up and went to search for her, thinking she was in the living room like earlier before, but she was nowhere in sight. She was gone.
I didn’t know how to interpret the situation; if there was anything to interpret at all. What was clear though was the fact that she’d left me alone in her penthouse. I was confused. I didn’t know what to think. We’d had such a wonderful time together. Why would she leave without a word?
I understood if she’d needed to go. It was Sunday. Maybe she was used to spending the day with her family. I got that, but why not say anything or maybe even leave a note?
When I got back to the bedroom, I went to the bathroom and took a shower. I wanted to focus on the pleasant part of my time with Mrs. Gallagher instead of the disturbing questions that lingered.
After the shower, I got back into my dress and called a cab to take me home. I found a different man at the front desk and for a moment, I seriously considered taking Mrs. Gallagher’s penthouse key with me, but decided to give it back.
I found my cab outside the building waiting for me and headed home to find Rex at my door. I was happy to see him.
“Are you just getting back?” he asked as he wrapped his arms around me.
“Yeah,” I said.
I should’ve been tired from the exertion of my night and morning with Mrs. Gallagher, but I was surprisingly well rested.
“Must have been one hell of a gala dinner. You look great,” he remarked as we got inside.
I wondered what he’d say if I told him that not only had I followed his advice, but it had also worked in my favor. It was selfish of me to keep the amazing encounter to myself, but I wasn’t ready to share what had happened just yet.
I trusted Rex and I knew whatever I told him would stay between us, but I wanted to know where Mrs. Gallagher stood with everything before I got ahead of myself.
“Thank you, and it was,” I said.
“What happened?” he asked as he flopped himself on one of the seats.
I went to the kitchen, got myself a bottle of water and went back to join him as I downed it. “I met a lot of people who work for Mrs. Gallagher. It was more of a mixer than anything else really.”
“Was Mrs. Gallagher there?”
“I didn’t see her, but yeah, I’m pretty sure she was. We were like over a hundred people.”
“Did anything interesting happen?”
Scenes from my passionate night with Mrs. Gallagher flashed through my mind. I shook my head, “No, not really, but when people found out I was Mrs. Gallagher’s personal assistant, I became pretty popular.”
“Is that so?”
I nodded.
“So, where’d you spend the night?”
I
found him looking at me and knew if I wasn’t careful with my answer, he’d know I was lying and would demand the truth. “I was tired so I stayed in one of the rooms Price Healthcare books for employees who get too intoxicated to drive.”
He watched me for a while, then sat up and said, “Let’s go out for lunch. I’m starving.”
I smiled at him, thinking I could use some food myself. I’d only had a sip or two of coffee for breakfast. “I’ll go change,” I said.
We went to a nice Mexican restaurant and halfway through our meal, we started talking about his work.
“You didn’t tell me what you’re going to be doing next after your adventurous cruise. Has Frank planned anything else for you?”
“He has identified some art galleries which would be good for my work, but I need to finish up with school first. I need to graduate and I just have a few months remaining so there’s no need to rush into anything.”
“Just a few months? Oh, I envy you.”
“You shouldn’t, with the professors efficiently working with you, you should graduate within a year or less.” He reached for my hand over the table and I looked up to meet his gaze. “You have a great job and practically no bills to pay. In no time, you’ll have paid all your student loans and finally have some control over your life.”
He was right. I had no complaints. I finally had a future I could look forward to. Everything was working together in my favor. “Your uncanny ability to make me feel better is unmatched,” I said.
“I should hope so. I’m your best friend.”
I laughed and resumed eating. “I want to start sending home some money. I’m sure my parents could use it. I doubt my brother helps out,” I said.
“I’m sure they’ll appreciate it. It’ll be comforting to know you’re doing well.”
“Yeah.”
“Have you thought about visiting them?”
“Yeah, but unfortunately, now that I have the means I don’t have the time.”
“Sad that you can’t have it all,” he said.
