You under h in ers

Your taste on ue

I think I want to know you feel the way I do

"I just want you to enjoy this tonight" I leaned forward, pressing ood, looked too beautiful Sara’s sounds were quiet and aching and seeers ran over o and pulled her leg higher, spreading wider, giving erated sexuality; she was slow and cal in history

And as I focused on ined how she looked froers in her andup fro her with the ; the way she looked at iven the entire world The silky black wig framed her face, made her skin paler, her lips redder Those saon her, to fk her harder with an to fall, her hand moved up her torso, over her breast and up her neck to her face, where she slipped herthe last bit of her skin that had been covered

Her huge brown eyes were trained on my face, her lips still parted in a quiet pant

When she came, she never once looked away, never once even blinked her attention to the s behind lass I could feel it But I don’t think we could have been any more alone in this roo in this world existed other than the way she pressed into ed on hed "Holy shit"

So maybe if I everface after all Maybe I’d shake his hand for s up with Sara so epically that shethe woman who did what she was supposed to do, and started to be the woman who did what she bloody anted

I kissed my way up her torso, let her suck her taste froue, my jaw Beneath me she arh faded into my neck

"I think that was the most fun I’ve ever had," she whispered

And I suspected I’d do al this woood to have every night of the week filled with Max, because it would shatterrun, I thought back on e’d done together, and came up with so under Max’s desk and sucking hi him in the elevator on the way up to his aparte in these sorts of daydrea not to care that he disrupted so much of my structured life And after what he did forto realize I’d walk across fla coals for the ent and was supported by patrons who’d been thinking about this kind of sexual fantasy er than I’d been alive I wasn’t sure if there were unspoken rules I was s Don’t look anyone in the eye Don’t drink your cocktail too fast

My parents were so wholly innocent next to this world Their idea of a wild night out was seeing The Vana Monologues and dinner at some trendy Asian-fusion restaurant To this day, my father considered sushi just a little too adventurous for hi into a secret sex club, and on o down on me where anyone present could watch

I had no idea, in the end, if anyone had in fact been watching We left through the back door to the rooh a service entrance Max watchedif I was ready to bolt or break down But in reality, I was shaking so hard because everything about it had felt right Max had been on his knees, between s, and had refused to letnant with oose bu to play in a library, but coht, that felt tame And on the way home after, with Max’s hand on my knee and his lips on my neck, my ears, my mouth, and--finally--his body over and inside me, completely wild on the backseat, I realized how crazy

It’d been so long since I’d been infatuated like this thatI had forgotten how fun it was

"You’re swooning," George said Thursdayas I approached his desk He stuck the end of his pen back between his teeth,about your Max"

How the hell did he know that? Was I grinning like an idiot? "What?"

"You like hiave up "I do," I admitted

"I sa he looked at you when he came in here Monday He’d let you carry his balls around in your pocket"

Gri, I opened my office door "I’d rather they stay where they are, but thanks for the idea"

"He was here this e offered, casually

I froze, halfway into

"Seemed sad to have missed you, but I told hi before you’ve finished your seventeen cups of coffee and rarely get in before eight"

"Thanks," I grumbled

"No problem" He sat up and pulled an envelope off his desk "He left this"

I took the envelope intowas tiny, scribbly

Sara,

Lifting my phone, I swiped my thumb across the screen and pressed his na "Are you still in bear hed "No I’m at cup sixteen"

"Your assistant is a character We had quite a lovely chat about you I’ on you while I’m away"

"I think he’s more of a Max fanboy, if you want the truth If you had any inclinations to play for the other teaet rid of hie called fro!" I yelled back, and then sht"

"Where?"

I hesitated only a beat before offering, "My place?"
