Looking across the desk, he was again struck by the odds. Minutes ago, he had been wondering what his chances of seeing her again would be, and here she was, a few feet away. It seemed that bands of iron were constricting around his chest, a tightness surrounded his heart. As she looked down at the paperwork on her desk, he studied her intently. He had found her confidence alluring and attractive when they were on common ground, but here, in her office, on her territory, it was overwhelming.
She looked up, and the warmth of her smile made his breath catch in his throat. Her eyes sparkled with life. He filled his mind's eye with the sight of her, each movement a snapshot in his memory.
It took a moment to register her words, so focused was he on her moving lips. "Louis?" she asked.
Embarrassed at being caught unawares, he stammered. "Huh? Oh, I'm sorry, I was distracted." His obvious admission won him an even more dazzling smile. He didn't even try to keep the goofy grin from his face.
How the hell is she doing this to me, he wondered. Where is this feeling coming from? It had been just one encounter before this, but never had he felt so sure, so confident in romance. Yes, that's what this must be, he thought, romance. The word had always seemed old fashioned and he would never have described himself as a romantic, but he could think of nothing else that described how he felt. She sat back in the big leather swivel chair, and put her hands on the arms. The big chair should d have made her look tiny, but no, it looked very appropriate. Like a throne, he thought. He shook his head and smiled at his dramatic turn of mind.
Angelica caught his look and smiled back. "And what are you thinking now? You have a look on your face like it's Christmas morning." She leaned in and put her hand on the desk, palm up. Looking down, he imagined her touch would be soft and warm, and without conscious thought, he reached across the desk, and laid his big, callused hand across hers, covering it completely. Her fingers curled around his hand, galvanizing him. Not releasing her grip, she stood up and moved around the desk. "I was so hoping I hadn't imagined that you felt the way I did when we met last night." She stopped in front of him and reached out, laying her palm against his cheek. Even seated, he was nearly eye-level with her. Angelica was average in height, but Louis was a big man, well above six feet tall. The expanse of his chest and shoulders filled the chair. His free hand rose, and curled against her hip, drawing her to him. She straddled his legs and her hips glided down to rest on him.
As she lowered herself, Louis slid the material of her skirt up, leaving it bunched around her hips. The sheer silk of her panties was molded to her and she sighed as she felt her mound press against his hardness. Shifting her weight, she fitted herself to him, feeling him swell even larger. He groaned, and buried his face in her neck, breathing her in. The heat of her skin warmed his lips, and he tasted it with the tip of his tongue.
Angelica was burning inside. Every move he made was what she had always hoped a man would do for her. His every touch was sure and so right. As his teeth scraped along her throat, she sighed. Grinding against him, she felt herself opening, moist heat seeking his hardness. His hand gripped her blouse in the back, and he slid the material from her waistband. Quivering from the feel of his strong, rough palm against her back, she was breathless as he slid it beneath her skirt, and then, beneath her panties.
Louis cupped her ass in his hand, gently squeezing. His blood burned through his body, and it took all his strength to hold his emotions in check. With every fiber of his being, he wanted to fill her now, to bury himself inside her, taking her at once. But, he resisted, savoring the moment, wishing for nothing so much as to hear her sigh, feel her trembling, fill her with anticipation and longing. Lips gliding down her neck, he traced the tip of his tongue around the hollow at her throat. Fumbling with her buttons, he felt the gentle push of her hand. Lifting his head, he looked into her eyes in question. She touched the tip of her nose with one finger tip, and then moved in and kissed him. The softness of her lips hid the fervor of her passion for only an instant, and then her mouth opened his, and she pulled him into her. The electric touch of her tongue on his made him clutch at her, pressing her body against his as his pulse raced and his heart pounded.
Breaking the kiss, Angelica arched her back, and began undoing her buttons. Undulating her hips, she did a slow striptease, moving to the music of their passion. She looked into his eyes, and instead of the smile she had expected, he had a fierce and hungry look. Her fingers flew across the buttons, and she pulled her blouse open, giving herself to his gaze. Before she could slide her arms from the sleeves, he pulled her to him, and his mouth found her breast. Sucking softly at her swollen nipple, he gave himself up to his need, filling his mouth with her. Her hand flew to the back of his neck, crushing his lips to her. "Oh, my baby!" The silence broken, she filled his hearing with her excitement. "Yes, my angel, yes. Mmmmm, my God, it's like you're in my mind." Nails pressing into his scalp, she held him to her breast as she rode him, swiveling her hips, wanting him now. An irresistible tide swept through her, and words she had never spoken singed the air.
