The One who got Away - Page 252

As my hips sunk back down in the bed, he let go of my hands and reached underneath me, pushing in deep and hard and closing his eyes. I could see the muscles in his face contract as he clenched his teeth and growled. His body shook, and I could feel his cock pulsating as it released his hot sticky seed. He kept a slight motion forward with his hips until his body began to collapse, and the air left his lungs. He hung his head low and then scooted back, pulling out and falling to his side. Immediately, before even trying to calm his breath, Nathan wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me close to him, kissing me cheek and relaxing into the bed.

Our bodies laid there intertwined for quite some time, our hearts beating wildly, and our lungs begging for more oxygen. When I had caught my breath, I picked up his hand and brought it to my lips, kissing it gently before turning toward him. He rolled over on his back and pulled me close to him, resting my head on his chest. I could hear his heartbeat slowing as he ran his fingers up and down my back. My hand caressed his smooth hard chest, and I realized that my feelings for this man were more than what I thought they were.

He had come into my life when I had given up, and it had been a whirlwind ever since then. There hadn’t been a day that went by that he hadn’t been on my mind one way or another. There wasn’t a day that went by that I didn’t think about missing him. He spoke to me like an equal, like someone who could show her intelligence and not be ridiculed. He listened closely to every word I said, and when there was nothing to say in return, he would kiss my lips in understanding. When we made love, it wasn’t desperate or lustful anymore, it was sensual and seductive. I couldn’t believe how far we had come in such a short amount of time.

“Thank you for bringing me here,” I whispered. “I couldn’t imagine a better vacation.”

“Thank you for agreeing to be here with me,” he replied. “And I agree, this is by far the best vacation of my life.”

I smiled and rested my head back down, my mind going a million miles a minute. I looked over across at the large picture windows and remembered I was no longer in New York, I was in India. Excitement surged through me realizing we had several more days to explore the beautiful country, and no one to ruin that for us. It was the alone time we needed with only one work appointment and the rest of the trip exclusively with each other.

My feelings for Nathan were no longer complicated at all, it was evident that I was falling deeply in love with this man, and there was no stopping it. In all reality, I didn’t want to stop it. I wanted to feel everything I could for him, even if loving him was the wrong thing to do.

Chapter Seventeen

Nathan

The phone on the nightstand vibrated, forcing me to open my eyes and stare out the window into the bright sunlight of the morning. I reached over and grabbed my phone, opening it and staring at a message from Chris reminding me to wake up because we had work to do. I groaned and rolled over, feeling Ruby inch over and put her head on my chest. I sighed, running my hand through her hair, remembering the fantastic night that we had. Even when I was facing something I didn’t want to do, she reminded me of the brighter side of life, it was insane. I stared down at her beautiful face and watched a smile spread across her lips.

“I thought vacation meant sleep,” she whispered.

“I know,” I sighed. “I’m sorry.”

“It’s alright,” she said, yawning. “What did Chris want?”

“To remind me we had a work thing to do today,” I groaned.

“Don’t groan,” she said sitting up. “It’s your company, the thing you have obsessed over your whole life. It’s just for a few hours anyway.”

“A few hours away from you,” I sighed.

“So, I’ll come with you,” she said cheerfully. “You can lie and say I’m your secretary or something.”

“Uh, oh,” I laughed. “Banging the secretary. That’s pretty cliché don't you think?”

“I’m not complaining,” she laughed. “Though I haven’t seen my paycheck.”

“I’ve got your paycheck,” I replied rolling over and pinning her to the bed.

She giggled loudly as my hands tickled her sides. I laid my head on her chest and breathed deeply, listening to her heart beat as she rubbed my back softly. I could have stayed there all day, or all year for that matter. Her soft skin under my face felt intoxicating, but she was wiser than I was and pulled herself out from under me, jumping from the bed and laughing. My head fell into the sheets, and I groaned, reaching out for her but hearing her laugh as she dodged my arm.

“Come on,” she said. “I’m hungry, let’s eat breakfast and go do this so we can get back to our vacation.”

“Alright,” I sighed again.

While Ruby was in the shower and getting ready, I dressed and ordered room service. I sat down in the chair in the living room and scanned through my notes from the week before. I wasn’t looking forward to this day at all, but I knew I needed to at least see what was going on. I still didn’t want Ruby to find out about outsourcing and was glad to know the place would be toured during non-operating hours. When Ruby got done the staff rolled the card of food in, and we sat on the patio eating our traditional Indian breakfast. We tried roti, which was like a flatbread of sorts, dosas, lentil based crepes with a honeyberry chutney, and some spiced potatoes. It was delicious, and I practically stuffed myself, eating nervously and waiting for Chris to say it was time to go.

When I received the text from Chris I groaned, and Ruby smiled, walking over and sitting down in my lap. She wrapped her arms around my neck and kissed me sweetly, the smell of her shampoo wafting into my nose. She leaned back and stared me in the eyes, ready to get the day started.

“The sooner we get this done, the sooner I can give you a blowjob,” she said smiling.

“Well, let’s get this show on the road,” I said picking her up in the air and walking toward the door.

Her laughter was contagious, and we both were giggling all the way to the bottom floor of the hotel. We jumped in the car waiting out front and sped off toward the building where Chris already was at, waiting for us to arrive. We pulled out of the upscale area of the city and through a very poor area. People stared as we drove by, standing outside of their one-room shacks or their tents, doing chores, some of the women holding tightly to their naked babies. I could see the sadness in Ruby’s eyes as we passed through, and I reached out and took her hand. She smiled quietly back at me, and I looked forward, seeing the massive building in front of me.

The parking area we stopped in was very well kept, but I could tell it was not the employee parking lot. There was a gate and guard at the front, and the entire property was surrounded by fencing. I got out after Ruby and took her hand, walking across the parking lot toward Chris. We followed him along the building to the door where we would meet the guide. I looked up the side of the building at the large nets hanging down. I had read about those, though I thought they were in Japan. Those were nets that would catch employees when they tried to commit suicide. Immediately I did not like t

he idea of outsourcing in the least bit, and I thought about the conditions these people must endure to reach that kind of place in their lives. There was no way I was going to let my company take on that kind of moral dilemma, especially since it was halfway around the world and barely in my control. The company in India would handle the workers, and I would never even know who worked there.
