“Yes,” she breathed.
When his hands found her underwear, he pulled the thin fabric down around her ankles.
He stood behind her, her ass pressed up against his crotch.
Her entire body trembled against his and she placed her hands on his desk, steadying herself against him as she leaned forward.
“Do you want me to touch you?” he asked, pressing his mouth against her ear.
“Yes. Please.” She was practically whimpering.
He nipped at her neck, her soft flesh driving him insane. “Spread your legs for me, Heather.”
She did as he commanded and then reached behind her back, took his hand in hers, and guided it up the front of her skirt.
Full-on sex might be off the table, but he could still pleasure her. Right here in his office. This was the craziest, most explicit thing he’d ever done at work, and he had barely even started.
When he brushed against the wetness between her thighs, he gently swirled his fingers around her slick entrance. Slowly, he eased a finger between her folds and she let out a moan.
“Oh, fuck.” Her body quivered.
She was hot and tight, her wetness making it easier to caress her silky depths. As she trembled against him he slid his free hand around her waist, pinning her to him as he pleasured her.
Heather threw her head back against him, the sound of her moans filling the room. “More,” she pleaded.
He eased another finger into her, tormenting her as he quickened the pace of his strokes.
The sound of his name on her lips let him know that he had her on the brink of ecstasy. She clenched around him, pulling his fingers deeper into her until she moaned low and loud, signaling her release.
Panting for breath, she leaned against him. As she struggled to speak, he pulled his hands away.
A knock on his office door made them both freeze.
“Simon?” The muffled voice of one of the executive assistants who handled his workload came through from the other side of the door.
The unlocked door.
His chest tightened with apprehension. “What is it, Sandy?”
“Do you want me to come in?” Sandy asked. “It’s the lawyer; you told me to announce him when he showed up.”
Damn it. He’d forgotten that Heather’s potential new lawyer, Aaron Colbert, was dropping by this afternoon. Somehow he’d let his lust get the better of him and had totally forgotten about his responsibilities for the day. This was the problem with working with a woman as tempting as his girlfriend.
“No need to come in,” he called loudly. “Just let him know Heather and I will be out in ten minutes. Just finishing an, uh, interview.”
“Okay. Will do.”
He waited a moment to make sure that she was gone and then he swore under his breath. “I totally forgot about the damn lawyer.”
Heather reached for her panties and started pulling them back on. “We almost got caught.”
He didn’t bother telling her that the almost getting caught part was part of the thrill. Instead he said, “I’ll go to the bathroom to get cleaned up.”
“Okay; I’ll get freshened up after you,” she said, desperately trying to smooth her slightly rumpled skirt.
Fifteen minutes later they both raced across the lobby towards Aaron, who was seated on one of the leather sofas on the far end of the lobby.
“I’m so sorry we’re late,” Heather said after they made quick introductions.
Aaron waved his hand dismissively. “Not a problem. I only just got here.”
“How about we eat in the cafeteria?” she suggested.
Aaron nodded. “Sounds good. I’ve been dying to get the chance to hear your story.”
Once they grabbed some chicken and rice for lunch, they sat an empty table in the corner of the cafeteria.
As Heather filled Aaron in on details about her divorce and Gary’s attempts at getting full custody of Finn, Simon listened intently. He knew the story, but he was interested in getting Aaron’s reaction. Aaron was middle-aged, a hot shot lawyer who had come highly recommended by the law firm that Simon retained for his personal legal affairs. Not only that, but Aaron had handled some very high-profile family disputes recently and had a good track record.
When Heather was finished telling her story, Aaron scratched his full beard thoughtfully. “First of all, Ms. Hall, I’d like to personally apologize on behalf of the firm. We had a rogue employee who leaked information to the news media about dealings with your ex-husband some time ago, and we have been eager to make amends for your ordeal. I’d like you to know that the rogue employee has been dealt with, and because of this we are going to be offering legal services at a discounted rate.”
