“Please.” Tears glittered in her large dark brown eyes as she looked up at him.
He took off his clothes and stood before her naked. He was not buff but his muscles were there in his chest and in his arms. Her eyes wandered down to his pubic area and she shuddered as she looked at his erection. “Touch me,” he said hoarsely.
She did immediately reaching out to touch and ran a finger over the length of him. “It’s yours,” he whispered hoarsely as she touched the tip of him. “I promise you that I will never be with another woman ever again.” She lifted her eyes and looked at him. This could not be happening. This incredibly wealthy man who moved in the society of the rich and powerful could not be offering her fidelity. She slid off the stool and took off her pants and then her underwear. His hands wandered over her ample flesh before and to her shock he went down on his knees before her. “What are you doing?” she asked anxiously.
“I want to taste you.” He sniffed her before parting her flesh with his fingers. Abby reared up in shock as he ran his fingers between the folds of her vagina. He bent his head and used his tongue between the folds before touching her mound. She screamed and called out his name as he dipped his tongue inside her, exploring and going in deep. She had never felt such a fantastic sensation and the orgasm came tumbling through her immediately. He caught it and licked it with his tongue slowly as she trembled and sobbed. He cleaned her out thoroughly before getting to his feet. He eased her trembling body onto the stool and opened her legs. He lifted her legs and held them as he entered her slowly. She had not recovered yet and she braced back against the counter and lifted her bottom to meet his thrusts. He started out slow at first and then the pace increased. His eyes held hers as he stroked inside her with his erection, his face intense and his eyes stormy! He wanted to tear at her and he felt the control slipping away like the sunshine getting rid of the fog. He bent his head and took her lips. He tasted funny and she knew it was from her juice. His testicles slapped against her as he plunged into her, his mouth demanding and his grip rough. He felt the tidal wave inside him and knew he did not have long left. He released her mouth and pulled out backing away a little holding his wet and throbbing penis in his hand. He pressed down a little to stop the flow of juice from coming and looked at the wetness between her legs. He moved towards her again and rubbed the tip of him on her mound watching as her lips parted and she panted! “Please!” she whispered, her hands reaching to his chest.
“I want it to last,” he said harshly, his chest exploding! “I just want it to last, my sweet, sweet Abby!” But he put it back in and she almost sobbed in relief as she clung to him. He bent his head and took her lips, his mouth grinding over hers as he felt the intense rush of the sweet incredible undefinable orgasm tearing through his body! He lifted his head and murmured incoherently. His body stiffened as he felt the pressure. He let go. He could not help it and calling out her name hoarsely he spilled himself inside her! She buried her head into his chest and he held her gently his body shuddering from the powerful orgasm. He pulled out of her in a few minutes and for a moment Abby stared at the semi erect penis glistening with their combined orgasms. He took her hand and led her to his bedroom where he took her into his arms and held her close.
Chapter 7
Without even realizing it she fell asleep in his arms. He held her gently listening to her breathing. Her hair was tangled from his fingers and he found himself brushing it back from her face. He watched her sleep. He had held as long as he could and stayed away from her but he had not lasted and had decided to give her a call. And here she was in his bed. After he had brought her into his bedroom he had taken her from behind, slowing down the process as he listened to her moans. He had lost control and had been rough as he tunneled his fingers through her hair and held onto the thick strands as he plunged into her. His body hardened as he thought about it and he groaned a little bit. He was going to have to try and control himself around her. He figured that he could persuade her to let them get married in December. He did not want to spend Christmas without her. He smiled a little grimly as he thought about her reaction. He had told her he would wait on her to realize that they belong together but he had lied. He had every intention of having her for his wife before the year ended!

“Stay,” he murmured as she stirred and got ready to get off the bed. She had slept for two hours and when she had awakened he had made love to her again. “Please.” He was kissing her cheek and edging to her mouth. “We could order in and eat in bed.”
“I have to go, my roommate does not know where I am.” She fought the desire licking at her. This was too much and it was happening too fast. She needed time and space to think about what was happening between them.
“Call her.” His hand went between her legs and shifted them as he touched her soaking wet vagina. His fingers went in and she opened her legs automatically and lifted them, moving her hips as he thrust into her. “Tell her you are not coming home.” His thumb caressed her mound and she panted.
“Edward!” She emitted a low keening moan as she lifted her body against his fingers. He brought her up and over and with a broken sob she came against his fingers. But he did not stop! He moved and crouching over her he licked her slowly, his tongue going in to clean up the moisture. She came again and her body shuddered, the tears leaking from her eyes. It was suffocating her! This intense emotion that he brought out of her and she was frightened by it! She needed time to think and time away from him to know what to do! “No!” She scrambled off the bed as he made to come over her. She was weak and spent and her body felt as if it was lit from the inside. “Please just-“ She took a very deep breath and looked at him. “I need to think. Please give me that.”
He thought about persuading her to stay but he saw the confusion and fright on her face and decided against it. “Okay.” He inclined his head. It was almost six anyway and he needed time to recover as well.
“Thank you.” She stared at him for a moment and then went to the kitchen to get her clothes. She was going to have to make something up to tell Jenny. There was no way she was going to tell her this!
*****
“Why are you in bed at eight o’clock?” Jenny demanded as she came into her friend’s bedroom. Abigail had sagged with relief when she got to the apartment and Jenny was not there. She had taken a shower and slipped into her nightgown, heading straight to bed. He had called and made sure she had gotten home safely. “I miss you,” he had told her softly and had had her trembling. She had not responded and he had hung up.
“Because I spent the time cleaning and then I went out for a bit,” she said casually as she muted the television. “How was the weekend?”
“Very good. Claudette and I went to a wine tasting party and we had fun! Next time you are coming with us.”
“Maybe.”
“I met a guy.”
Me too, Abby said silently. “Yeah? A real one this time?”
“Yes, Abby, a real one with a penis and all.”
“How do you know?”
“Well, we sort of did a little bit of quick sex in the back of his car. What?” she asked at the look on her friend’s face. “I gave in to the moment and it was kind of nice.”
“So where does he live and what does he do? And is he married?”
“No, Mother,” Jenny said dryly. “He is divorced and he is a teacher. He lives in the next town.”
“So are you going to see him again?”
“The possibility exists,” she said with a shrug. She scooted up to the pillows and took the remote. “Your taste in movies suck,” she complained as she changed the station.

“Come home with me later,” his deep voice sounded in her ear. She had reached Romano’s early in order to get the catalogue ready for a new client she had. She was thankfully alone in her office when he called.
“No.” She closed her eyes as she responded wanting to say yes.
“Please. I
did not sleep last night for thinking about you. I need to talk to you.”
“When we are together we do not talk.”
“That’s true,” he chuckled ruefully. “What have you done to me, Abby?”
“I need space.”
“You don’t need space from me.”
“You are scaring me.”
“That’s the last thing I want to do, baby.”
“Stop!” she whispered.
“I am hard. I am in my office and have to stay at my desk because I am hard for you. I need you, Abby.”
“It will go away.”
“What will?”
“This thing-“
“You mean my love for you?”
“Don’t you dare say that to me!” She looked swiftly towards the door to see if someone was coming.
“I am in love with you. Don’t you get it? What I feel is wonderful, amazing love and I want to shout it to the world.”
“I am hanging up.”
“Abby, you cannot run away from what we have.”
“Watch me.” She hung up on him and buried her face in her hands.
Over at his office, Edward smiled whimsically as he heard the dial tone in his ear.
“You look pleased with yourself,” Lisa said as she came into the office with some folders in her hands. “What’s going on?”
“What do I tell you about knocking?” he asked her resignedly as she took her seat opposite him.
“Oh please, that command stopped holding water after I discover you are a teddy bear,” she said insouciantly.
“I am going to start enforcing it.”
“You can always try,” she said with a smile. “Now what is so pleasant at nine in the morning?”
“I met someone,” he told her.
She stared at him in shock and then her lips spread in a smile. “Finally! Who is this absolutely wonderful woman who has captured your heart?”
“I cannot tell you yet until she says yes to marriage.”
Lisa’s eyes widened. “Marriage?”
“Nothing less,” he told her with a gentle smile. “She has me twisted up in knots but she thinks she is unsuitable.”
“Edward Moore, I am so proud! And this is sudden. When did you actually meet her?”
“A month and a half ago and I know for sure that there can never be anyone else for me.”
Lisa stared at the man who had been her employer for over ten years. She knew he was not the type to give his love lightly and the woman who reached his heart would never have the fear of him cheating on her. “When is the wedding?” she said jokingly.
“I want us to get married in December. I want to spend Christmas with her.”
Lisa looked at him in shock. “Edward, it is almost November!”
“I know and I have a limited time to convince her that she needs to be my wife and take me out of my misery.” He smiled slightly and then became serious. “I meant that literally, Lisa. Without her I am miserable.”
*****
He bombarded her with calls asking her to come home with him or just to go and have dinner with him. He kept at it for a week and she finally caved. “I will come there,” she told him firmly.
“Why do I get the feeling that you are ashamed of me?” he had teased. She had not answered him but had hung up.
She was ready to leave the office at a quarter to six when Monique came hurrying in. “I am so sorry to do this to you and it is time for you to go, Abby, but I need you to check some things for me.”
“No problem,” she said with a forced smile.
“Into my office please.”
She waited until Monique had left before she made the call. Normally, it would be no problem for her to stay behind and work because she loved what she did but ever since Edward had forced his way into her life she had no idea what she was doing!
“I am going to be a bit late,” she said as he answered the phone.
“How late?”
“I have no idea, Edward. I work for a living, remember?”
“I can come by and pick you up.”
“No!” She closed her eyes. “I will be late by half an hour the most.”
“I will order dinner in the meantime. Plan to stay the night, Abby.”
“I am not spending the night.”
“We will see,” he said softly.
Damn him, she thought heatedly as she hurried off to Monique’s office.
“Oh, there you are, Abby. We are putting the photos together for the magazine and before we send to print, I want you to choose the best photos.” She spread the photos on her desk and Abby’s eyes zeroed in on the ones of Edward. He was wearing a grey pants with a slate grey shirt, emerald green vest, and a jacket hooked by a finger over his left shoulder. He was smiling a little bit and his beautiful grey eyes shone in the light. His ash blonde hair was brushed back from his forehead. He was incredibly attractive! She felt her heart thumping inside her breasts as she remembered how he had made love to her a week ago and what he had done to her!
“Abby?”
She shook her head and looked towards Monique. “I was just thinking what a difference clothes made.”
“You mean in terms of Edward?” she asked with a smile as she looked down at the glossy photos. “He was always a very attractive man but he never capitalized on his looks. He is doing so now. I have a feeling that there is a woman involved.”
“Really?” Abby’s hands trembled slightly as she sifted through the photos.
“Yes.” Monique helped her absently. “You can always tell when a man meets a woman and is interested. He is different.” She looked up and her smile came quickly. “Darling, just a few more minutes and then I am ready.”
“Abby.” Lorenzo nodded at her and went over to take his wife in his arms. “We have dinner plans with those designers and we cannot be late.” He kissed her lightly and she melted into his arms not ashamed that they had an audience.
“We won’t be.”
“I will go get my coat and meet you out front.”
“How does it feel?” Abby asked as soon as Lorenzo left the room.
“How does what feel?”
“Being loved like that?”
“Wonderful!” Monique said with a laugh. “Lorenzo is a bit possessive and arrogant but he loves me and our children so I can put up with his highhandedness.” She looked at Abby. “Have you ever been in love?”
“Not even close,” Abby said with a small laugh.
“I hope you get there one day.”
All the way to Edward’s place she kept thinking about what Monique had said. It was almost Thanksgiving and all around there were indications of it with the images of turkeys on most windows. She had come straight from work and had not bothered to go to her apartment. She had called Jenny and told her she would be late getting home but the girl was used to her odd hours by now. The gates swung open as she got there and she drove in. The lawns were immaculate and the roses at their best. Edward had told her that his gardener had threatened to quit if he touched the plants so he had left them alone. He was waiting for her at the door. “Hi.” He bent to kiss her on the lips before taking her coat. He had come home and changed and had on loose sweatpants and a t-shirt.
“You cooked?” she asked sniffing the air.
“I ordered from one of Kane’s restaurant.”
“As in Kane Takahashi?” She turned to look at him as he shepherd her into the kitchen.
“Yes.” He reached for plates to share the meal. “I hope you are sufficiently hungry.”
“I am. I skipped lunch.”
“Why?”
“Why what?”
“Why did you skip lunch?” His dark grey eyes probed hers and she shrugged.
“I just did. I was working.”
“I don’t want you doing that, Abby,” he told her solemnly as he passed her the plate of lobster quiche and salad.
“It’s no big deal. I was just not hungry and when they called up from t
he kitchen I told them I was not hungry.” She dug into the meal. “And you are not responsible for me,” she added.
“I am.” She looked up and went still at the expression on his face.
“Edward, you need to stop-“
“I want us to get married in December. I have to go away for a week in the first week of December but I can get Leesa and Kelly to liaise with the wedding planner to get everything finalized. My parents would like to come over and meet you.”
Abby stared at him as if he had grown two heads.
“We are not getting married, Edward,” she said slowly as her stomach started to churn.
He came around to her side and she started trembling as he lifted her chin up. “I love you with every fiber of my being. I don’t know how it happened but since the first time I saw you I felt it and the feelings have grown stronger. I suffer when you are not on the bed next to me. I cannot function at work and I cannot stop thinking about you. I used to spend Christmases here by myself whether going to some inane function or just sitting by the fire. It never bothered me before because I love my own company. Since meeting you that has changed and I need you with me, baby. I am not going to stop until you say yes so I am giving you fair warning.” He bent his head and took her lips with his. Abby reached up and gripped his shirt tightly as she melted into the kiss. Oh God! What he did to her! He moved away after a few minutes and took a deep breath. “Finish eating. I need a minute.” His dark grey eyes were stormy as he looked down at her and his erection was very obvious. Without saying anything else he turned and went out of the room.
