After Hours

By V. Steele

He stroked her hair and kissed her lips softly. She leaned into him and gasped as he massaged her breasts and then started a slow descent with his fingertips down her rib cage and across her stomach. She arched toward his hand as he moved even slower tormenting her as only he could. His eyes never left hers. He softly said her name. Then he said it louder and totally out of context.

She quickly opened her eyes to find Rick leaning over her. She was still in the bubble bath. Quickly she tried to cover herself. What on earth was going on? Then she turned beet red as she realized that she’d been dreaming and now he was in here with her. But why was he in the bathroom with her?

“Sorry, but I noticed that you’d been in here for an hour and I called your name at the door. When you didn’t answer I thought you might have drowned.” He was aroused knowing that she was wearing nothing but bubbles.

“Well as you can see I’m fine. I must’ve drifted off to sleep.” She tried to adjust her body to where most of the bubbles were.

He sat down on the edge of the tub and reached out for a hand full of bubbles. This only aroused him more being close to her. “Glad you’re alright. Those bubbles are going away.”

She sat up quickly trying to cover herself and only managed to give him a great view of her breasts glistening with water and bubbles. She quickly slid back in the water.

He stood up and walked over to the counter grabbing her towel. He held it out by the ends indicating for her to get out. She just looked at him and gulped. Surely he didn’t mean for her to step out of the tub in front of him.

Chapter 1

Tori stood on the sidewalk staring up at the 25 story Camden building. Today she’d interview for the most wanted business assistant job in town. The job was with Richard Camden himself, the import tycoon. Tori took a deep breath and stepped through the revolving doors. The lobby was magnificently decorated in burgundy and gold. The mahogany wood shined like a new penny.

As she stepped on the elevator, butterflies fluttered in her stomach, she was actually nervous about the interview. Why on earth should she be nervous? She was well qualified, graduating top of her class in the top business school in the south. She’d worked for two years as a business associate to a local department store. When it’d closed two months ago she’d taken a month to tour Europe and relax.

The elevator opened into a large lobby. She walked to the desk at the main door.

Excuse me I'm here for the interview with Mr. Camden. The older woman smiled as she pointed to double doors at the end of the hall.

Just go through those doors and have a seat. Your name will be called when it’s your turn to be interviewed.

Thank you. Tori walked into the room and noticed two other ladies. They looked up and smiled nervously. Tori sat down and picked up a magazine, flipping the pages without seeing anything on them. The decorative mahogany door opened and a slim, attractive older lady stepped out.

Miss Gibbon, Mr. Camden will see you now. The lady stepped through the door. She was in the office for about ten minutes. The other girl was called in and she was only in there for about five minutes. This didn’t look like it was going well. The older woman came back out.

You must be Miss Rodgers, he’ll see you now. Tori got up on wobbly legs and walked into the small outer office. The older woman held open the door to the main office.

When she entered the office, the gentleman behind the desk was on the phone. He was looking down at a file as he gestured for her to sit down. When he hung up the phone and looked up, Tori almost lost her breath. This man was handsome in a rugged sort of way. He had dark hair with a touch of gray. His face was like chiseled stone, but with a great tan. He had the deepest blue eyes she’d ever seen. A ripple of lustful desire ran down her spine. She felt it in the pit of her stomach.

Miss Rodgers, I’m Richard Camden. They shook hands across the desk. I've read over your resume and credentials from your college and last employer. I have to say I’m very impressed. This job consists of a lot of travel, in and out of the country. Will this cause any conflicts? With a raised eyebrow he looked at her trying to read her. He couldn’t get his eyes off her sultry lips. She was a very sensual looking woman. In her eyes vibrated a
