Something Forever Page 19

“You know,” she continued. “After you open the meeting, if you give it the right tender, loving strokes, you can make the long, hard meeting pleasurable.”

Fuck! I would never in a million years have thought those words would come out of her mouth. Jenna did have that feisty, wild beast in her. I was completely blown away by how our conversation had taken a twist. She was making me blush big time.

“Well...I’m happy to hear that you had a successful meeting this morning.” At this point, I had no idea what I was trying to say.

“Will that be all, Mr. Knight?” She gave me a warm smile with a soft laugh.

I let out a chuckle. “Yes. This was quite interesting. I was very surprised by your descriptions, or should I say...your choice of words.”

“Oh, you have no idea. Your brother brings out the beast in me.” Jenna winked and headed out the door. Twisting the knob to turn, she looked over her shoulder to me. “Thanks for locking the door when you left.” Her words came out bashful and tender. With a warm smile, she left.

Heading back to the office, my mind reeled from my conversation with Matthew. He wanted to toy with me and make me blush big time, but it backfired. That sneaky Matthew. I had to admit, it was fun surprising him with my comebacks. Yup, I really like the new me.

When I got back to the office, my eyes went straight to my desk and heat infused my cheeks. Recalling how I was sprawled on my desk with Max licking me, I suddenly felt the twinge of pleasure right between my legs. How just the thought of him made me feel aroused like that was beyond me. Max said I would think about what he had done to me every time I saw my desk, and he was right.

After I greeted my co-workers, I checked my agenda and emails. The buzzing from my work phone snapped me out of my concentration on the layout on the screen. I was just about to approve by clicking on the format of page ten for Knight Magazine.

“This is Jenna Mefferd,” I answered without looking at the caller ID.

“It won’t be Jenna Mefferd soon. You’re better off calling yourself Mrs. Knight. You might as well get used to it.”

“Max.” I lowered my voice, trying not to catch anyone’s attention. With the phone resting between my shoulder and ear, I refocused on the screen. “How can I help you?” I sounded way too formal, but I was at work after all.

“I know how you can help me.” His tone came out way too flirty.

He’d gotten my attention for sure. Smiling, I said, “Really? And what is it that you need?”

“Are you sitting in your seat?”

“Yes,” I answered, clicking away. I had a deadline to meet and Max was being a huge distraction.

“Did you think of me when you walked into your office and saw your desk?”

“Yes.” I started to feel hot and flushed, recalling how good he’d made me feel.

“Good. Then I know—”

“Actually, I think I forgot.” I intervened before he could finish. I wanted to say something he would not expect. That got his attention big time. His ego must have deflated because he was silent for a second, probably contemplating whether I was teasing or being serious. I couldn’t help but smile knowing that I had stumped him a little.

“Really?” He sounded quite surprised. “I’ll help you remember tonight.”

He didn’t have to tell me that; I already felt tingles down to my clit from his words. His flirty, sexy tone always got to me and made me feel like I was in his arms.

“I’ll see you tonight, Mr. Knight.” With that I got back to work, but how was I supposed to work when all I could do was think of what Max had done to me on my desk? When I heard a sound, I looked up. I didn’t recognize the woman standing in front of me, so I glanced at Matthew, who’d just walked back into the office after a meeting, then back at her. Matthew shrugged his shoulders. He had no idea why she was there. Seeing a nametag on her shirt and a box of something indicated she was there to deliver something to me.

“Hello. May I help you?” I asked.

“Are you Ms. Mefferd? Soon to be Mrs. Knight?”

I smiled at her words. Max was up to something. He’d probably told her to ask that question. “Yes, that’s me.”

She handed me a box with a blue and pink ribbon tied neatly into a bow. “I’m from Café Express. I was told to deliver this to you.”

I reached into my wallet and handed her a tip. “Thank you so much.” After she walked out the door, I opened it. Inside of the box were some salted crackers, a heart shaped Rice Krispy Treat, and a pink cookie that read, ‘Maybe a girl?’ and a blue cookie that read, ‘Maybe a boy?’. Happy tears dampened my eyes. I wiped them away quickly before they could fall. Max filled my heart with joy and made me feel so light, like I could levitate off the ground from being so happy. He was too good to be true.

Seeing that there was a note inside, I took it out to read it.

Jenna,

The crackers will help ease the queasy stomach. Make sure to eat a little throughout the day, and also drink a lot of water. Whether a boy or a girl, I promise to love our child and I promise to be the best father and husband.

TKLS,

Max

Jenna

Since our schedule didn’t allow us to have dinner together and Max was coming home after me, I grabbed a quick bite to eat at work. I wanted to surprise him. I thought about dressing in his favorite lingerie and sitting next to the running bath, or wearing nothing except his silver tie and draping myself across the bed. All of those naughty thoughts were running through my mind while I was driving. I couldn’t believe I was thinking like this. After all, I had to find a way to thank him. He sure was making up for leaving me in the morning with a broken heart.
