From across the table, I could see that Lucy was upset. Willa also noticed it because she abruptly exited her seat, walked over to Lucy, and wrapped her arms around her.
“Aw, you need a hug.”
“Thank you, Willa. It’s hard to see your child go through a breakup.”
“I can only imagine. She’ll be on the mend soon. I promise.”
I glanced at Uncle Kroy, who rolled his eyes and shook his head. Willa was a little too much sunshine for him, and I loved it.

I felt the night was a success. Looking at Damien, he felt it, too.
“Good job, you two,” Kroy said. “I have no doubt that this merger will be a done deal soon. I’ll see you on Monday, Damien.” He and his wife stepped onto the elevator.
“You did good.” Damien smiled. “I could tell Theodore and his wife really liked you.”
“Thanks. You didn’t do too badly yourself, Mr. Blackwood.” I placed my hand on his chest. “I can’t believe it’s already midnight. The evening went by so fast.”
“It did.” His hand reached up and cupped my cheek. “Stay the night. It’s too late for you to go home, and there’s no way I’m allowing you to ride the subway this late.”
I stared into his beautiful blue/green eyes, and my knees weakened.
“Nothing about us is real, Damien,” I softly spoke.
“I understand, but it doesn't mean you can't spend the night.” He leaned closer, his lips gently grazing mine, their warmth sending a thrilling sensation through me.
After our kiss, his eyes locked with mine, his thumb gently caressing my lips. I swallowed hard, craving that intense feeling again. Even though I'd already experienced all of him, I couldn’t remember anything, and this time, I wanted to remember.
“Okay. I’ll stay.” I smiled.
He swooped down, picked me up, and carried me to the bedroom. Our clothes flew off within seconds as our lips locked into a passionate kiss. His eyes were hungry with desire as his mouth traced a line from my collarbone down to my belly button, his lips and tongue delicately moving over my skin with precision.
“I need to taste you,” he breathlessly spoke, moving his mouth down below and awakening all of my senses.
My fingers gripped the sheets as a riveting sensation tore through me. Dipping his fingers inside, I moaned as I orgasmed and coated his fingers with the pleasure he gave me.
“That was beautiful.” He sat up and shoved his fingers in his mouth, tasting me one last time before thrusting inside me.
“Wait,” I said as he reached inside his nightstand and pulled out a condom.
“What’s wrong?”
“Nothing.” I smiled. “It’s your turn.”

I wasn’t expecting her to suck me off, but I welcomed it. I lay back, my body tense with anticipation, as she leaned down and took me in her mouth. Seeing her doing it excited me more than anything else, and I couldn’t take my eyes off her. She looked up at me with desire in her eyes as her lips were wrapped around me. Her delicate tongue glided over my skin, and my fingers tangled in her hair with each movement.
“Stop. I’m going to come.”
She sat up and ran the back of her hand across her mouth, leaving me ready to come. She straddled me, taking me by complete surprise.
“I need to put on a condom,” I breathlessly spoke.
