Siena caught her hand just before she was about to walk out the door and pulled Jamie into her, tilting her back and kissing her deeply. Siena held her close before pushing her into the wall next to the door and continuing to kiss her deeply. Jamie wrapped her arms around Siena’s back, plunging her fingers into Siena’s hair and holding onto her tightly. Shecurled her ankle around Siena’s legs and pulled her in even closer.

If Jamie didn’t know better, she was pretty sure that they were about to have another quickie in the office. She started laughing when Siena pulled back slightly and shook her head in response to Jamie’s outburst.

“That’s the question you were dying to ask them?”

“Yeah,” Jamie answered, her voice rough with arousal and deep with tension. “What about it?”

“Nothing.” Siena kissed her loudly and then pressed a line of kisses down Jamie’s neck to the tops of her breasts, which were exposed in the cut of her shirt. “You could have asked that one before.”

“I didn’t want you to know.” Jamie scraped her nails along Siena’s scalp, pulling her deeper into her body. “I wanted you to be surprised. And them.” She started to breathe heavier.

“Why?”

“Because I’d get a more honest answer that way.” Jamie slid her hand down to Siena’s ass and squeezed. “Are we doing this here or at home? Because I’m not sure Paula is ready to walk in on us just yet.”

Siena groaned, no doubt annoyed with the reminder that they were still in her office and were definitely not alone.

“I’d rather be able to scream when you want me to,” Jamie added, curling her fingers around Siena’s cheek in a tender touch. She’d been doing more and more of that lately. And Jamie was surprised, but she loved it. She loved being able to be this close with someone who wasn’t her family and who had actually chosen to be this close with her.

“You make a tempting offer,” Siena whispered and then leaned in, nipping Jamie’s earlobe.

Jamie had no doubt that she was going to torture them both until they really had to decide if a quickie was worth therisk or not. But Jamie hadn’t worn a short dress today, which was going to make the quick part brutally hard.

“I heard you’re good at negotiating.” Jamie moved her hand around Siena’s front, trailing her fingers over her breast and then back up, but not before circling her hardened nipple and teasing it with a flick. “What say you… leave work early and ravish me at home?”

“You draw a hard bargain, Jamie.” Siena kissed her quickly.

“I do. It’s all because I love you.” Jamie looked up into Siena’s eyes, wanting to hear and feel the reaction that Siena had to that little tidbit of information. She hadn’t been sure that she was going to tell her yet, but the moment seemed right. And as soon as the words were loosed, Jamie was glad she’d made the confession.

“You sure about that?” Siena asked, nipping at Jamie’s neck and then sucking quickly. “Because you could just be horny. I’m pretty sure that you told me that you didn’t need to be wined and dined.”

“Oh, I did. But…I think you changed my mind on that one.” Jamie gasped when Siena hit a particularly sensitive spot. “I quite like it when you kneel at my feet for me.”

Siena laughed hard. She pulled away, unable to stop the laughter from leaving her lips. “I’ll see you tonight.”

“Fine. Tonight it is.” Jamie gave her an exaggerated pout. She was going to be walking around with wet underwear for the rest of the day until Siena made good on her promise tonight.

“We should talk about a job I might have found for you tonight too.” Siena sat down at her desk, sliding into the chair like she was all business now. Jamie was jealous of how quickly Siena could go from seduction to work like that.

“Oh?”

“Yeah. Tonight.” Siena glanced over the computer. “I’d rather not talk about it here.”

“All right.” Jamie was curious now, but she knew there was no way to push Siena to get an answer without arguing. And the last thing she wanted to do was start a fight just to get information and then not be able to get out of it later when what she really wanted was a good fucking. “Tonight then.”

Jamie opened the door, ready to leave when Siena’s voice stopped her.

“Oh, and Jamie?”

“Yeah?”

“I love you, too.”

Elation hit Jamie first. Her cheeks burning, not from arousal, but from excitement. She’d never heard those words from anyone before. And they meant so much. She gave Siena a huge wink, one that was over the top, and then she left. There was no way she was going to be able to wipe the grin from her lips now.

This was everything and more.
