“I knew that Fred was a bit suspicious, but I didn’t expect him to lie to me like that,” he said.
“Well, unfortunately that’s his game, sir. But you have the numbers right there. You have the facts. You’re the one to make the final choice,” I told Thomas.
I could sit there and try to get him to say, yes, but the numbers tell the real truth. Thomas looked them over again, putting them down on the table and turning to me.
“And you’re in it for the long haul, right, Richard?” he asked.
“Course, sir. I do think that we should definitely take this nice and slow, but I would love it if we could manage to get the legalities sorted out,” I replied.
Thomas nodded, getting out some papers and putting them on the table. His gaze met mine, one that was serious, and meant it.
“Let’s get the logistics out of the way then,” he said with a smile.
I quickly filled the papers out, and once everything was drafted, we all signed them. When it was over, Thomas turned to both Ellen and me, a look of relief on his face.
“You know, Fred was hyping up his new additions to the company. I can’t believe I listened to those lies,” he said.
“It’s okay. Fred loves to lie,” Ellen said.
“I see. I can tell. I kind of remember you from back when we had first been talking, but you look way better now,” Thomas replied.
“It’s the results of getting away from an asshole employer and working with someone better,” Ellen said.
“Yes, and I do say, you made a good choice.”
I smiled, nodding in agreement.
“I try, sir. Anyways, I’ll call you Monday to iron out the next step.” I stated.
“Yes please. I’ll let you two go,” he replied.
We both walked out, smiles on our faces and a look of pure excitement in our eyes. I couldn’t believe that this was actually happening. I definitely didn’t regret a damn thing at this point.
I turned to Ellen, a smile on my face.
“Ready to get on out of here?” I asked.
“Yes let’s,” she replied.
We left, heading back to the office with smiles on our faces. When we got there, I put my briefcase down and sighed in relief.
“Well, that went way better than I expected. But…how did you know that they were lying?” I asked.
“I did some digging. You told me to prepare. They were being unusually quiet, and I had a feeling that Fred was up to something. But I don’t regret what I did,” Ellen admitted.
“I don’t either. You honestly changed the company, and you probably don’t even know how,” I told her.
“Well kinda. But I’m glad I could. I feel there’s a future here with you. You know, working for your company and all,” she said.
I felt the same way. I didn’t want to make it weird or anything, though.
“Anyway, you want to possibly go out?” I asked.
She shook her head.
“I want to spend time with you. You know, talk about that reward you had for me after this mess was taken care of,” she purred.
I smiled, feeling a rush of excitement as I looked at her.
“Well, tell you what, why don’t we head on up to the roof? I never go up there, and nobody’s here right now,” I said.
Ellen eagerly nodded and I reached out, taking her hand and heading up to the rooftop. I don’t normally go up there, so when we got there, I saw a little garden on the top of the roof, along with a couple of benches.
“This is new,” I said.
“You don’t come up here enough?” she asked.
I shook my head.
“Not really. I’m mostly trapped in my office. But since you came on board, I actually leave the office at a reasonable hour. So, thanks,” I told her.
She giggled, leaning next to me and touching me.
“Yeah, I’m glad I can help. You know, I was pretty upset about being fired, but I certainly don’t regret it. Now that…you know everything happened,” she said.
I nodded.
“I don’t either. I’m glad you’re here with me.,” I whispered
We were on a bench, sitting next to one another. I wanted to touch her, and I could feel my need to lean in and kiss her growing stronger. We both sat really close, and she reached out, taking her hand in my own. I squeezed it, smiling as we sat there in silence.
“So…do you feel the same way about me that I do, Richard?” she asked.
I nodded.
“I do. I’m honestly surprised. I normally don’t feel anything for my employees. I’ve always been a hard worker, but once you came around, I began to feel an urge I forgot I had. So, thanks,” I told her.
She giggled.
“Same here. I haven’t dated in a long time. And most guys don’t like me. But you’re different. In a good way,” she admitted.
I laughed, leaning in toward her mouth. Our lips were inches from one another, and when I tilted her chin up, her eyes met mine.
“Well, I’d be lying if I said I didn’t feel the same way,” I confessed.
She nodded.
“Same. I’m glad to have you,” Ellen replied.
I moved in closer, and before I knew it, her lips were on mine. We sat there for a bit, kissing softly and chastely. I didn’t know if she was ready to take it further, but then she pulled me in so our lips were mingling and touching one another’s. We made out for what felt like forever, until she pulled away and smiled.
“I’ve wanted to do that for a hell of a long time, you know,” she said with a giggle.
“Well, I’m glad you did. But I want to give you something more. Why don’t we go back down to the office?” I suggested.
She nodded and together we made our way downstairs. Soon, we were at the door, and when I opened it, she went in first. But then as I closed it, my lips were on hers again; we were kissing with a pleasure that I hadn’t felt in a long time, the urge and need for her taking over me.
Chapter 7
Ellen
As we kissed, I felt my body relax against his. His muscular frame held me there as our lips moved and caressed one another, the passion, desire, and need for more igniting within us both. We continued to make out for what felt like forever, not stopping because of the way it was making us feel. I wanted more, and I knew that he did as well.
He quickly brought me over to the couch, pushing me down on it, his body over my own. We looked into one another’s eyes for a second before making out once again, more passion, need and desire growing within us. His lips then started moving towards my neck, peppering small kisses there and making me shiver with delight. He lightly sucked on my collarbone, teasing the taut flesh, and I let out a small cry of need as he did it.
I wanted him. My body couldn’t take much more of this. His hands moved towards my jacket, tossing it away, and slowly he was unbuttoning my shirt and pulling it off my body. His hands reached out, caressing my breasts and teasing them. his fingers danced over my nipples, making me to release a breathy sigh of pleasure.
My breasts were so sensitive, and they ached to be touched. His hands teased me through the clothing, causing me to hold the couch and letting out a series of moans and groans as he continued. For a long time, he simply stood there, kissing me as his hands played with my breasts. Soon, they moved to the back of my bra, taking it off without a problem. The garment dropped off my body and he kicked it to the side, before taking a nipple in his mouth. He sucked on it hard, causing me to let out short, breathy sounds. His hands moved to my other nipple, touching and teasing it. I started to let out a series of moans, my body excited with need and desire. He continued teasing me as more excitement was growing within; our bodies were tight against one another. The heat generated was driving me insane, and I knew that he loved this as well.
For a long time, both of us just made out, and he continued teasing my body. But I didn’t know how much more I could take. Soon, I took his shirt off, pulling it off his body and t
ossing it to the side. My hands moved across his body, memorizing the feeling of his muscles and surveying the beautiful tattoos.
Tats that only I would get to see because he was a good ol’ businessman now.
I sustained a feeling of excitement and honor upon realizing this. I didn’t want to tell him, but there was something special about it. Soon, my hands moved towards his hipbones, feeling them and admiring the small V that he had.
“You like what you see?” he teased.
“Oh, I most definitely do,” I purred.
It wasn’t long before my hands were on the fly of his jeans, undoing it and tossing them off his body. Soon, I pulled his boxers down too, revealing his large, aching member.
As soon as I saw it, I licked my lips with anticipation. I soon pushed my lips downwards, taking it all the way in. He gasped, surprised by the way I sucked dick. I bobbed my head up and down, moving quickly and taking more and more of it in. He clutched the table next to him, groaning as I used my lips and tongue to tease him, watching his face contort with pleasure.
He wasn’t very vocal, mostly little gasps and grunts as I took him in, my tongue moving towards the underside and then getting to the head of his cock, teasing the very tip of it and looking up at him with a smile of anticipation. He let out another groan as I pushed him all the way down my throat, feeling a bit of a gag for a second, but then I relaxed my throat.
For a long time, I continued, with waves of excitement and need rising. Soon, he lightly pushed my lips away. I looked up at him with expectation, and he soon smiled.
“I want to make you feel good too,” he purred in my ear.
I quickly moved to the sofa once again as he pulled my skirt upwards, taking my pantyhose off and spreading my legs. He pushed my panties over to the side, licking his lips as he saw my face. Soon, he had descended upon my body, licking and teasing every inch of me.
I let out a whimper, gripping the sofa and crying out in pleasure. He continued to tease me with every single moment, watching my eyes widen and feeling my hips move upwards. I started to pant, growing needy with desire. I felt his tongue move into me, pushing inward, and when he flicked it over in that one special spot, I started to scream out, holding myself as I cried out.
“Fuck,” I said, riding his face as I came hard.
He pulled back, licking his lips to taste me and then smiled.
“Liked that?” he teased.
I nodded, but not before I had spread my legs apart again, giving him that look. He soon fiddled with a condom, sheathed himself and looked at me with pure, raw desire.
It was a long time coming. I knew he wanted this from the moment he had first seen me. But as soon as he pushed himself all the way in, my eyes widened and I held the sofa, crying out loud and moving towards him. He started pushing into me, tensing up as he felt the tightness of my heat. He then waited a moment, giving me a long, passionate kiss before getting back to matters.
His thrusts were exact, so perfect, and I could feel my brain starting to grow fuzzy with pleasure. He continued to push in deep, watching me with delight as he moved his body closer and closer, holding my backside as he thrust into me.
I didn’t know how long we had gone on like this or would go, but then after a couple more thrusts, his hands moved upwards, teasing the edge of my clit. When he rubbed against that spot, I shivered, crying out as I threw my head back, basking in the sheer pleasure of it all.
It was so perfect, and I loved the way I was feeling. I hadn’t had an orgasm this good in a very long time. After a few more thrusts, he pushed deeper into me, moaning as he finished up. When he pulled out, I fell back on the sofa, exhausted and breathing heavily. It certainly was some of the best sex, if not the best sex, that I’d had in a long time.
“Wow,” I said to him.
“You good?” he asked.
I nodded.
“Yeah. I’m really good,” I gasped.
“Yeah, same here. That was a long time coming, you know,” he said.
I nodded, feeling a lot better about myself. For a long time, neither of us said anything. But, when I turned to him, I was smiling.
“You know, I think working with you, Mr. Richard, is definitely a worthwhile investment. If you keep that up, you won’t be able to get rid of me,” I purred.
He reached over, smiling, to caress my face.
“Oh, I have no intention of getting rid of you whatsoever,” he promised.
We made out once again, and for the first time in a long time, I felt needed, and wanted. I felt like I had made the right decision, and I knew that he had enjoyed it too. We definitely would be spending more time like this, and, hopefully, we could indulge in this kind of reward more often.
Chapter 8
Richard
Meeting Ellen changed my goddamn life, and not just because the sex was great and she was a hot girl. It changed my job for the better, and so many things were different now.
For starters, there was the partnership with Thomas. As soon as that was instituted, it changed the company. We were making double, even producing triple of what we had been doing beforehand, and it was all thanks to Ellen.
To say that she got promoted was an understatement. I had her right below me in the company. Though she still insisted on taking care of the financials. I could tell she was quite happy too. Our company became one of the biggest in the region, and we were doing more sales than ever before. I was amazed and surprised that we could achieve something like this.
And of course, it was all thanks to her.
About three months down the road, we decided to come forward with our relationship. I told the company that Ellen and I were both partners in a romantic sense, and in a business sense. A few people were upset about that, but for the most part, everyone was happy.
As we were leaving, I heard someone call my name. I turned and there was Rebecca.
“Hey you two,” she said.
“Oh, hey, Rebecca. What’s the matter?” I asked.
“Hey. I just wanted to say…I’m sorry Ellen. I’m sorry for trying to forewarn you about Richard, saying he was a bad guy and all. I did that because he has that…history. But I can see you’ve changed him for the better,” Rebecca said.
I turned to Ellen, and she quickly smiled.
“It’s okay. I get where you were coming from, Rebecca. But sometimes you can change a bad boy into something different, and I think that worked here,” she added.
“Yeah, you’ve helped change the company around Ellen. I’m glad to have you on the team,” Rebecca said.
“I’m happy to be here. Thanks, Rebecca,” Ellen replied.
She walked off, and I looked at Ellen with a bit of confusion.
“What was that all about?” I asked her.
“Oh, she tried to tell me that you were bad news a long time ago,” she explained.
I laughed.
“That’s a good one,” I said.
“Right? I don’t think you’re bad news at all. In fact, if anything, you’ve been good news to me,” she said.
I nodded.
“I can vouch for that. Anyway, want to go get some dinner?” I asked Ellen.
She nodded, an eager smile on her face.
“Yeah, I’d love that,” she said.
We went to her favorite restaurant and ate together. I loved that Ellen always had an appetite and wanted to get some food. That night, we made love at my place, a penthouse apartment that I had all to myself.
As we sat there, entangled in one another, I thought about what to say next. It was then that I posed the question.
“I hope I’m not being too forward, but there is something…that I kind of wanted to ask you,” I blurted out.
She looked at me with curiosity.
“What is it?” she asked.
“Well I was thinking that since we’ve been dating for a while that maybe…you could move in with me?’ I asked.
I hope it wasn’t too forward. I’ve never asked
a woman to move in with me like this. I mean, I didn’t even know if this was something she wanted. Maybe she was fiercely independent or something.
But instead of outright refusing it, Ellen smiled.
“I’d love that!” she replied.
“Good. Because I want you to stay here with me,” I told her.
“Right. Well, I’m game for that. My lease runs out in about a couple months away. I like the place, but I’d rather live with you, you know,” she said.
“Of course. You’re my cute, curvy girlfriend. I wouldn’t want anything else if you want the truth of it,” I told her.
Ellen smiled in excitement and then leaned in to give me another kiss. I could tell that this was the beginning of a bright, fun future for both of us. To say that it would change our lives was an understatement. I didn’t see Fred after that. Rumors were that he had up and left town. I thought he would’ve done that forever ago, but I guess not. But in his wake was company and employees who were left basically with nothing. I felt bad, so I hired a few, but they were nothing but paid interns at most.
I didn’t really feel bad for taking what he had left of his company. I didn’t think I’d ever see him again. Instead, I had a new life, a bright, new future - one better than anything I could’ve imagined. Both Ellen and I were happy. She didn’t want to leave me and, of course, I didn’t want to leave her.
This was what we’d been waiting for. A second chance not just at life, but also at creating a new future for both of us. I knew that building our empire would take time, but I also knew that with Ellen’s help, and our ability to work together perfectly, nothing could stop us.
I had the feeling that she was totally down for that, and the truth was, I was too. Our love grew stronger each day, and there was no way I could ever give her up. She completed me and I completed her.
