“Doyou think Leo killed your dad?” I whisper to Johnathan one night.
“I don’t know.” He shrugs. “But I wouldn’t put it past him after reading all of this.”
If there is one thing that we are both sure of, it is that even if this case is dangerous, we aren’t giving up without a fight.
Massive amounts of correspondence—emails,recordings, and paperwork—built a solid case against Leo and his associates almost overnight. I take the time to scan everything onto a jump drive while Johnathan is in meetings throughout the day so I can show Jax and his own team can continue to build his own case against Leo. There is no way I am going to be able to sneak all those files out of here without someone raising some serious questions. And even though I’ve been surviving on pizza and coffee for the last forty-eight hours, and all my senses tell me to be more afraid for my own life at this point, I feel more alive than ever.
Johnathan hovers over the folder with the final plan as I stifle a yawn, his brow creased in concern as he flips the page.
I groan and walk away from the table. “We’ve been over this a hundred times. There’s enough here. I’m sure of it.”
“I don’t know,” he grumbles. “I can’t help but feel like we’re missing something.”
There’s doubt in his voice, and I can’t seem to find the right words to make it go away. I take the risk of walking back to the table and gently putting my hand on his, the sparks between us tingling the palm of my hand.
“You’ve got this,” I say. “If anyone can pull this off, it’s you.”
“Thanks.” He turns to me with a small smile. “I could have never gotten this far without you.”
“Oh, what are personal assistants for?” I laugh nervously, removing my hand from his.
“Seriously, Kylie. I don’t know what I would do without you.”
His eyes search mine as if begging me to understand. But whatever he wants me to know is still a mystery to me. The fatigue I felt is but a memory as I get lost in his gaze. He’s like a magnet that I can’t resist. And this time, I don’t. I lean into him, gently pressing my lips to his, and quickly pull away. Just a little peck to calm my frail nerves. Completely harmless. But Johnathan has other plans. One look and I can tell that I’ve awakened the beast.
His hands are on the small of my back as he leads me back toward him.
“Where do you think you’re going?” he whispers, biting his lip.
“Um.” I have no words. He looks down at my lips and meets my gaze as he leans in closer. I know that I should push him away. Break the tension with a lame joke that ruins the mood so we can go home and focus on the mission at hand. But the longer I stare at him, the more I can’t pull away. What’s one more kiss between us going to hurt?
I lean into him, lips back on mine as he kisses me over and over. His hands trail down to my ass and grip it tight. I can feel his desires pressing against me, and it stirs my insides. I can’t help but bite his lip a little, and a low growl escapes him. His hands slide under my skirt, and I stifle a moan as he slides past my panties.
“Already soaked, I see,” he breathes. “Just like last time.”
“It’s hard not to feel this way around you,” I admit, my cheeks hot with desire. He slides his fingers inside me without hesitation, and I relish in his touch. My hands grip the edge of the conference table as he continues to please me.
“Did you miss my touch?” he asks, rubbing his thumb on my clit.
“Yes,” I moan, unable to hold it in any longer.
He slips out of me long enough to flip me around and press my torso down onto the table. The sound of his belt coming undone makes me squirm in anticipation. The scent of him fills the air and my mouth waters. I long to run my tongue up and down his shaft like last time, but I don’t dare move. Not that I wouldn’t mind a little punishment from him.
“You won’t be needing these anymore.” He laughs darkly, sliding my panties to the ground.
My eyes cross as the length of him slides inside of me. Oh, how I’ve missed this. He grips my ass and thrusts father. Deeper.
“Fuck,” I moan, losing whatever little restraint I had left.
He moves faster. “You like that?”
“Yes,” I breathe, doing my best not to be too loud. Even if we are normally the last ones here, I don’t want to take any chances.
I feel him retreat but not for long. He spins me back to face him and kisses me deeply.
“Hang on,” he whispers, lifting me off the ground.
I wrap my legs around him, and his dick slides right inside me. It’s so big, I feel like I’m going to split in two the deeper he goes. He manages to press my back against the wall, and I run my fingers through his hair as I cum over and over again.
