The Wait

By Claire Hogan

Sophie had never known pure desire until she met him. She was your average once a week vanilla girl who fantasised about being Dominated. Her life was about to change when she falls for the millionaire Dom. The utterly gorgeous Nathan Aldridge business tycoon captivates and seduces her. He opens her mind to the best sex of her life in the most sinful ways. She’s addicted and has no idea how it’s going to end.
She’s not like anyone he has ever known, beautiful and innocent. It’s her innocence that draws him in deeper. Other women he’s dated, mostly models or starlets pale in comparison. He wants to show her his world hoping she’ll be a willing participant.
But something out of their control may threaten their future? Just as they get over one obstacle in their short time together, another is thrown in their path. Nathan will do anything in his power to protect Sophie because he realises life without her isn’t an option.
He’s brought her out of her comfort zone kicking and screaming for that she’s eternally grateful. She’s shown him a life outside his lifestyle which he thought didn’t exist. But now she holds a secret that may keep them apart for ever?

Chapter 1

Oh my God, in about ten minutes I’ll be standing right in front of him, Eek! I still can’t believe I’m doing this. I started emailing Nathan over a year ago and haven’t looked back since. Our emails started off rather innocently and business orientated, but as the months went by sexual innuendos started to filter through, eventually becoming more explicit. He saw selfies of my boobs and arse well before seeing my face, and vice versa. I almost passed out when he sent me a photo of his penis, both limp and hard. I swear to you, I’ve always said it was the ugliest part of a man’s body—that is, until I saw his. I thought it was huge flaccid, but erect it was twice the size, and I unconsciously crossed my legs! Definitely ouch, big time. Oral wasn’t in my repertoire, but I actually salivated when thinking about taking him in my mouth. I can honestly say that his penis was beautiful.

By the end of the year we both had an insightful collage of body parts. Hard to believe, but it was easier sending selfies of my eyes, mouth, breasts, and arse than of my face. I even sent him a pair of undies—not the Bridget Jones ones I felt most comfortable wearing but a sexy black-lace pair with ruffles and bows I purchased online. I loved my big knickers—hey, they kept me cosy—and I chose to wear only the ones which came right up to my belly button. Not for the faint-hearted! My mother brained one thing into us when we were kids, which is probably the only thing she preached that stuck: ‘When you go out, always make sure you have clean underwear on. You never know what’s going to happen—you could end up in hospital!’ So when I’m going out, I always wear the sexist knickers I can find.

I knew the whole lingerie scenario would have to be overhauled if there was a slight chance of us meeting, but I wanted him to get to know me before he saw what I looked like. And when the day finally arrived that I was brave enough to include a pic of my face, he went off the radar for a bit. Had I ruined everything? Awkward! My heart was in my mouth as I paced back and forth, asking myself over and over why I sent that bloody photo. At long last he rang. We spoke for hours and hours. His voice was deep and sexy, and I could have easily got myself off just listening to his dulcet tones. He made me laugh so much my tummy muscles ached and my eyes watered. I found myself wishing he wasn’t always on the end of a phone.

Before we knew it, we were sexting constantly, turning me into a frustrated mess. Sometimes it got so intense that he often had to do an emergency hand job at work. I was a little more reserved and able to withhold my urges until I got home to the privacy of my bedroom, where most times I almost blew the roof off with my screaming orgasms. I realised that this was something special and spent most of the time in a state of sexual arousal just thinking about him or reading his emails. All it took was for me to touch myself, pretending it was him and finishing the job off with some DIY. I didn’t have a rabbit like some of my friends, being too shy to shop for one. Our idea was to head into town during our lunch break and make me choose one from the Ann Summers store. Apparently I wouldn’t feel embarrassed with a bunch of giggling friends?

I also wondered early on about what it might be like if and when we met. Once through the door, would we jump each other’s bones and rip off our clothes? I wanted to think that would happen without giving me a chance to go all shy and nervous. But deep down, I knew that only happened in movies and books—of course I would clam up. God, I hated being like that. I always had been, right through my teens. I suppose it’s just one of those things some people don’t grow out of.

We always ended our emails wishing each other a safe journey home or see you at home, meaning we’d continue messaging on our private email addresses. The personal email addresses came much later and only because I wouldn’t reply from my work computer to an explicit email he sent me. Most times we wished we would see each other at home. Don’t get me wrong, it wasn’t always smooth sailing. We had a major blip which almost ended us altogether, but thankfully we recovered and both got back on track. In some weird sick sense, I should be grateful it happened because it pushed Nathan into making a decision.

He’s one of our overseas interior suppliers whom I’ve never met, and after six months I finally plucked up the courage to speak to him over the phone. It still didn’t stop me going bright red informing everyone in the office it was Nathan on the other end. How mad is that? Of course I took a sneak peek on his Facebook page, and heavens above he was more than pleasant on the eye and certainly wasn’t hit with the ugly stick. After seeing his photos, I couldn’t stop myself or my constant urges. My libido was out of control. Just the thought of him touching me sent me to my bedroom immediately. The idea of getting a vibrator was becoming ever more appealing as the days went by. I’m sure he checked me out on FB too—after all, we’re only human. But the only image he’d see was the Coca Cola puppet doll as my photo. The real ones eventually came later.

The banter was and is amazing between us, and after just over a year of emailing, he invited me over for a few weeks. Gulp and holy shit! Yeah, it was definitely going to hit the fan, big time.

Hi Nathan,

Please note that unless this was agreed beforehand with shipping, we cannot accept these carriage charges.

If it’s a case that the order does not reach the minimum carriage paid, we must be notified immediately. Under those circumstances, we may increase the order or ask for it to be held until another order has been processed. This is an agreement with all of our suppliers.

Please advice.

Also, can you confirm min order amount for carriage paid?

Kind regards

Sophie

Nathan       09:35

Good morning Sophie,

I hope you are well and enjoying the good weather?

This order was placed after the bulk order for article 2149 had been shipped. We charge carriage on any orders under £20,000 but we do not charge carriage on any balances.

I will credit the carriage charge on this invoice and will email you a copy of the credit note once it has been raised.

Nathan

Sophie       10:34

Hi Nathan,

Thanks for the credit and I will set up our account as min order €20,000 to prevent this occurring again.

Kind regards

Sophie

P.S.

I hate this weather when I have to work in it, lol!!

Nathan       10:54

Hi Sophie,

No problem, I am unsure if it was mentioned at the meeting.

Best regards,

Nathan

PS I hate having to work in it too but at least when it is like this the office dress code becomes relaxed and I am sitting here in ¾ length shorts and t-shirt but it still gets a bit uncomfortable, I would much rather be in a beer garden

Sophie       11:08

Yeah, we’re all in our bikinis here!

Nathan       11:28

I’m on the next flight lol :)

Nathan       09:.15

Good morning dear, I hope you had a nice evening. I was asked to add that consignment to that order by David.

Nathan

Sophie       09:25

Good morning.

I had a lovely evening reading my Kindle, thanks. Hope you had a good one too?

This is the invoice in question and I don’t think order 0101 has anything to do with it? HELP!!!!

Nathan       09:50

Hi Sophie,

Sounds relaxing, I chilled with a few cold ones

This does not have anything to do with o/no 0101, I think this is from an email to Josh Anderson.

I hope that helps

Best regards,

Nathan

Sophie       10:14

that’s great thanks. Will speak to him when he gets here.

What age are you if you don’t mind me asking????

Nathan       10:20

No problem.

I’m early 40’s but about 21 in the head

Best regards,

Nathan

Sophie       10:47

Keep in touch.

Love the banter…

Nathan       10:50

Hey wait, a gentleman never asks so I won’t but feel free to tell

Me too lol x

Sophie       11:15

Thirtyish!

Nathan       11:17

Nathan       11:55

Sophie       12:00

Oh No! I’m far far farrrrrrrrrrrrr from a chuck, more like chick.

A girl is never happy.

Nathan       12:03

Nathan       08:48

Good morning chick, have a good day. IT’S FRIDAY

Best regards,

Nathan

Sophie       08:55

Happy Friday too,

We finish early on Fridays so I’ll be home before you?

What’s the plan for the weekend?

Let me guess, a beer garden and lots and lots of, emmm, alcohol???

Nathan       09:17

Lucky you, I have to bat it out until 4:30

Party time tonight with plenty of ice cold beers then tomorrow I pick up Evii, who’s 4 and stays every weekend and we just have a great time, princess stories, princess dress up, princess DVDs, visiting the family…………

What about you, what’s your plans for the weekend?

Sophie       09:50

that’s so cute seeing how excited you are to spend time with her. Is that your daughter? Hope you have a fab time. I hibernate every weekend with my Kindle. I’m rather boring actually. I do love minding my Nephew Charlie who is 1.5 and quite a handful. He’s too cute and I have to constantly remind myself to stop squeezing him. Just can’t get enough of him. Have a great one.

Nathan       10:30

thank you we will and I have all next week off too whoop whoop

Long story……

Sophie       10:45

I will miss your emails (sad face).

Have a fab time and I hope you have the weather for it.

Nathan       11:00

same here

Looks like it’s going to be a cracker all week

Now get yourself off home

Enjoy

Chapter 3

To him, it wasn’t a big deal he seemed overly confident and very sure of himself but to me it was a huge step. I never go anywhere on my own especially on a plane to stay with a stranger. Jesus! Am I cracked or what? I’m a big girl now in my early thirties as my friends kept reminding me. Sure what have I got to lose? So, I pulled up my big girl pants and booked my flight before I changed my mind. I took my obligatory six weeks holiday’s altogether and three of them were with Nathan if all went well? Anybody who knows me will tell you that I’m full of good intentions. Always making plans to meet friends for dinner or drinks and at the last minute making some silly excuse not to go! I’ve only had two relationships which I now consider meaningless and have only slept with those two meaningless relationships.

Unfortunately, even lost my virginity to one of those meaningless relationships. Now, because my pussy needs major sorting that only Nathan could fix, I packed my bags like a slut in heat. Of course the poor bloke has no idea what’s going on in my head, but do I??? Those emails have brought out the vixen in me. I feel like someone else, maybe a little more confident, of course that will all change when I come face to face with the horny Mr. Nathan Aldridge. I’ll revert back to awkward, nervous Sophie.

As I walked through arrivals, my heart beat faster and I could feel my infamous nervous rash climbing up my neck! Shit, that’s all I fucking need. I’ll frighten the life out of him and he’ll say I’m nothing like my photo’s. It’s not my fault I turn into a nervous wreck. Just breathe, breathe, deep breaths. As if things couldn’t get any worse after the flight was delayed for two hours, the airport lost my case! What’s the statistics of that happening on a one hour flight to the UK? Luckily, I have all the essentials in my LV bag, make-up, deodorant, hair mousse and the crucial spare pair of knickers (not a pair of Bridget’s in sight)! The airport official said as soon as it was found they’d courier it over to Nathan’s.

Chapter 4

Nathan       13:00

Hey Chick,

I hope you are well and had a nice weekend I’ve just had a lovely week off and it looks like I timed it right given the weather today.

Best regards,

Nathan

Sophie       13:37

Yaay welcome back.

Had a quiet weekend but did have 1 strawberry daiquiri which almost had me comatose as I don’t drink!!!! Plus of course I had another Kindle fest.

Yes, you were very lucky with the weather. Did you sun yourself knocking back the beers?? And what did you get up to with Evii?

Nathan       02:10

Thank you dear

That must be probably one of the very few cocktails that I have not tried, will have to sort that out

We went to a country park and visited family as well, a good time was had by all. I think I did a little too much sunning over the last few days and I’m struggling a little today, roll on 5pm

Best regards,

Nathan

Sophie       02:15

Oh my goodness you drink cocktails? Wow. Do you get drunk?

Have you tanned or are you like a lobster? LOL

That’s not good that you want to go home already.

Nathan       02:30

It has been known, me, my brother and a friend once stood at the bar in one of our old haunts and for the night went through the cocktail menu, a good night and good fun

I have a healthy tan, thank goodness I don’t do lobster red!!

Yeah I know the clock does not seem to be moving very fast

I can’t dash just yet waiting on some paperwork to come through once signed and sealed I’m outta here

Sophie       02:40

Didn’t you get weird looks from the other men in the bar? Thankfully you have ceased calling me dear, we are practically the same age.

Nathan       02:50

No, it was a friend’s pub and he was the one making the cocktails for us

Indeed I have

That is so not true chick quite a bit of a difference which I happen to like

Sophie       02:55

Yeah right. Me thinks you have a lovely feminine side …

Nathan       02:55

Nah, proper hard bloke me lol

Sophie       03:10

Grrrr. Is your ego tarnished?

Nathan       03:20

Not at all. can watch a chick flick with the best of them

Sophie       03:30

Oh my goodness. You’re the best. It’s not often you find a proper bloke who will sit through a rom com.

Nathan       03:50

You stop being so truthful lol

Have a nice evening, nearly made it

Chapter 5

Oh my God, there he is and he’s holding up a sign? I can’t see from here what it says without my reading glasses. I have major butterflies going on and I wonder how he’s feeling? I just need to concentrate on not slipping on my arse. Why did I have to wear these new shoes anyway? Oh yeah, to look tall and sexy?? What a girl has to do, there bloody killing me!! As I got closer, the sign read, ‘Blonde bombshell’. Shit, I’m scarlet. What am I supposed to say to that without sounding like I’m full of it? I smiled and said the first thing that slipped into my blonde head, Bighead aren’t we? Because he was definitely a blonde bombshell… Seriously mother fucking good looking! Those photos did him no justice. Oh nooo, did I just say bighead! Mortified.

He looked at me with the most gorgeous luminous baby blues I’ve ever seen, laughing, he said, Ouch, I meant you. Oh my god, I can’t believe I dropped my gaze, fuck and shit. Maybe he never noticed? Before I could stop myself, I dropped my eyes to the floor and looked at nothing in particular. I have no idea why I did. Maybe I’m thinking too much into it and he thought nothing of it? Doesn’t that mean I have submissive tendencies? I’m sure I blushed as well, fuck and shit! He crumpled the paper into a ball and pushed it into his jeans pocket. Jesus, how did he manage that, they were so damn tight across his muscular thighs and it actually looked as if he had a hard on?? Christ, how could I forget, he just has a massive cock? Umm lovely. STOP staring.

He moved in for a hug as I just stood there like a statue. Not one for being a mother earth hugger, I gasped and squeezed my eyes tightly shut, feeling a little uncomfortable. I needed to cop the fuck on and relax. God, he smelled divine, all man and musky and solid. My nipples actually hardened when he squished me tightly into his rock hard chest. Even in my 3½ heels, he towered over me. I loved that he was much taller making me feel small and girly. He stood back leaving his hands on my shoulders, drawing them slowly down my arms till he reached my clenched fingers. Jesus, that was hot. So, can’t believe you’re really here. It’s great to finally meet you and it’s true what they say, good things do come in small packages. I was gobsmacked and blushed like a neon red light and for the life of me have no idea why on earth I looked down at his crotch. Hey, you certainly won’t find a small package in there, he joked looking down to where my eyes were fixated.

I dragged my eyes away and up to meet his. The ‘dick pics? he offered. Jesus Christ, did he actually say that out loud about his dick, right now, here? I’m sure I heard someone call the fire brigade to put out the raging fire burning up my face? I was totally mortified, seriously, who says things like that?

Sophie, I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean to embarrass you. It’s like I know you forever, but I really don’t, if that makes sense? It’s okay, I squirmed patting my hot cheeks. Is that your luggage, he asked, pointing to my handbag? Bloody cheek! No smart arse, they lost it, I said, throwing it over my shoulder. He laughed then ran his hand through his gorgeous blonde hair while I imagined how it would feel sliding my fingers to the curly ends at the nape of his neck. Hot! Oh my God, I’ve literally just met him and I’m thinking of getting dirty and naked with him already, here in the airport. Snapping sadly out of the porn movie I had us both starring in I tucked my hair behind my ear, asking him where the car was parked. I was actually star struck and the thousands of getting to know each other emails, seemed like they never happened.

My heart thumped and I was back to being stupid shy Sophie, fuck! He shrugged impatiently, then quickly turned, leaving me to fall into place behind him. Not worrying if I’d pissed him off already, the view from here was mighty fine, he had a fucking fabulous arse!! Trying to keep up with his strides, I let my eyes run over his broad shoulders and linger on his very tight behind trying not to drool or get caught. Jesus, he’s fucking gorgeous. What on earth would I possibly have to keep this man interested in me? Like what you see? Shit, caught red handed perving at his arse, mortified. My face turned bright red as my eyes bug out. I ignore him pretending to remove an invisible speck of fluff from my sleeve. I just wanted to smack his smug face already as he smiles before turning and I try desperately hard not to let him get to me. Keep up. Ooh that gravelly tone, sent shivers up my spine.

There’s definitely something there, he’s just pure sex. God help me. My heart is pounding out of my chest and when did it get so damn hot in here? Me, hot and my curly hair do not mix well!! Hopefully the full can of hair mousse I used would keep it under control better than I was keeping myself under control? Holy shit, what if he doesn’t fancy me now that I’m here, what if he doesn’t like, me, Sophie? Who’s very different from email Sophie! I don’t think I completely thought this out, oh god!!

Chapter 6

Nathan       13:23

Hey chick, how are you? I hope you and your kindle are keeping well? Been very busy here. Had a load of work to do and it all had to be typed manually – gives me a headache. You wouldn’t believe me if I told you I meant to drop you an email but have been out the door busy. I hope all is ok with you … … … Have a nice evening

Sophie       13:23

I’m grand thanks. You’re a busy bee so I’ll leave you to concentrate as Men are not known for multi-tasking. Haha

Give me a shout later.

Be good.

Nathan       13:40

There are a few things I can do at the same time lol Will do, in the middle of checking a 222 item packing list and I have missed 5 items so have to go back all the way through it. Assistant off for the day.

You too!!

Sophie       13:50

Tell me some of the things you can do at the same time? Saying that, you just confirmed that you have missed 5 items already. I rest my case!!

See you later.

Nathan       14:00

Wouldn’t you like to know? And I found them too. laterz

Sophie       14:02

Go on, tell me please.

Nathan       14:10

Hi Chick,

Way too graphic for email, I will leave it to your imagination lol finishing in 15 minutes – yippee decided to take a half day. Can’t wait to see Evii.

Have a good weekend

Sophie       14:20

I know what it is. You can eat your dinner on your lap while watching TV!!

Nathan       14:25

Oooh no, much more fun than …?

Have a good day chick

******

Thankfully there’s a cool breeze when we get outside. He stepped towards a white Audi Q7. Wow! I say out loud, my favourite colour and one of my favourite cars. He smiles that megawatt smile taking my bag and putting it in the boot. The second his fingers brushed against mine, it sends shivers up my spine and I feel goose bumps popping out all over my body. The wind whips a curl over my face and he gently lifts his hand and tucks it back behind my ear. Holy crap! That was hot. Our eyes lock and I can’t look away. We just stand there staring at each other. I’m trying hard to stop a nervous smile forming on my face. Arghhh! Too late. I bite my lip and in a split second, the moment is lost. He turns away leaving me rooted to the spot. What the fuck just happened? I really thought he was going to kiss me. Fuck, I wanted him to kiss me. Every inch of my body wanted him to kiss me.

Chapter 7

I climb gracefully into the car feeling his heavy stare upon me. As expected, the inside of the car is stunning, cream leather and Walnut, genuine I’m sure. Of course it is silly, nothing but the best for Mr Perfect. I can’t look at him so fumble with the seat belt. It’s high up and comes straight across the top of my head. I laugh nervously and ask if all his passengers are giants? He leaned in closely to lower the belt and I shiver as the hairs stand up on the back of my neck and a blush creeps over my cheek. Our eyes meet but I can’t look away. What will I do if he moves in to kiss me? Fucksake, my panties are soaking already! I break the stare and gently push him away. His chest felt like solid rock and I could imagine the smoothness as I licked my way down the V of his abdomen. Yikes! This is only the first day and already I’m in desperate need of a fuck! Say nothing till proven guilty. A wisp of a smile darts across his face and he knows I have it bad.

Bastard!! Before I say anything, the car moves off and gently pulls into the traffic. I squeeze my legs together grabbing the seat belt to my chest. I turn to the side to lower the belt feeling my dress ride slowly up my thigh. I won’t look to see if he’s watching and I daren’t tug it down to draw attention.

I feel the cool air brush over the skin peeking from my hold ups. I eventually manage to lower the damn seat belt and click it into position as I hear him say fucking hell. I turn to catch him staring at my crotch. I grab the hem of my dress and pull it roughly over my knees and turn my blushing face into the window. Good going girl!! He pats my knee before giving it a gentle squeeze and honestly, I wanted him to slide it up further. Saying that they would have snapped shut automatically like those orchid flytraps! At least I flashed you and not the cars driving by.

He laughs and says that sounds so wrong. I join in and immediately relax enjoying the views, especially the one to my right. He wiggles his brows then flips his sunglasses down turning his attention back to the road. You look good all tied up. That was all he said. What was I to make of that? I knew my face went red anyway and it did turn me on. He put the radio on and asked what my taste in music was? I mention that I was brought up listening to Classical and Elvis at which point he taps the dashboard and Vivaldi’s, Four Seasons floats from the speakers, which also happens to be one of my absolute favourites. I said I was listening to Andrea Bocelli and only for ‘Con Te Partiro’ was so sad, would love it playing at my wedding. "It almost brings me to tears listening to it.

As for ‘Canto Della Terra’, that turns me to mush it’s so powerful. He asked if I liked Sarah Brightman’s version of ‘Time to say goodbye.’ Oh my god, the both of them singing together is so romantic, I love it." Did we both have the same taste in music and I wondered what else we had in common. Even though we were constantly emaiing, I still didn’t know everything about him. Maybe he’s saved the best for last? Who am I kidding, God only knows where this is going, he’s already mentioned bondage!

We drove for about a half hour until he slowed down outside a gated house. He clicked a button on the dashboard and the huge black ornate gates slowly opened. Is this your house I asked reaching forward to get a better view. What a stupid question to ask, did he notice how obviously dumb I was considering we were outside the only house in the cul de sac? It was a beautiful 1940’s detached mansion like nothing I’d ever seen before and from what I could see in the darkness it was also aesthetically landscaped. He told me that his Grandparents had left it to him and he renovated most of it apart from two rooms. He couldn’t bear to change the one room his mother loved so much, the Den. When I was a kid, she’d say it was my studio. He took my bag from the car and keyed a code into the security pad on the front door. Are you hungry he asked as he walked into the house or would you like to rest before we go out?

Nathan       09:25

Morning chick, hope u had an enjoyable evening. 9:25 & no email from u yet,

R u not hungry for your fix??

N

Sophie       09:25

Good morning N!

I’m smiling as I type this.

I had a lovely evening, doing, guess what? Reading. I spent about two hours reading then was depressed because I finished it. Not to worry, I have another three to get to.

I will always need my fix and don’t know how I’m going to cope at the weekend.

I have to say Mr. Aldridge, yesterday you were magnificent.

Nathan       10:00

Hi Chick,

May I ask why you are smiling? Happy thoughts from yesterday? I am glad I lived up to your expectations, magnificent is a wonderful word

Your kindle is very lucky – snuggling up with you for a couple of hours

Maybe I will have to be twice as good tomorrow to get you through the weekend, as it will be even longer

Sophie       10:15

I always smile reading your emails, can’t help it and after reading the part about the Kindle, Ahhh. That’s the sweetest thing anyone has ever said to me. I’m beaming. I’m still smiling from yesterday and I think that is why I slept in. All those scandalous thoughts!! Did you enjoy yesterday? Could you be even better than yesterday? I can’t see how that’s possible. But yes, that would be good, I’m priming myself already…

Nathan       10:30

Hey Chick x

I know, very naughty, maybe I should have had a sleep in hhhmmmm

Absolutely

I can imagine it does

I will try to up my game, I am visualising you priming yourself

Sophie       10:40

Not much fun on your own. Two’s better. Then you are multi-talented?

And I’m led to believe those hands can work miracles!!

So glad to hear that

What can you imagine? Spill …

Tell me what you’re thinking?

Can’t believe you have a long weekend off!!

Nathan       11:00

Yes indeed,

Hallelujah

Long may it continue?

A good hard shake does the job lol

Not sure yet, as you said I was magnificent yesterday, not that I am blowing my own trumpet

Sophie       11:15

It’s nice to know we are thinking along the same lines.

I shouldn’t be trying to get you to say things either regarding DIY. That’s bold.

It will be a sad day if it ends ….

You are Big headed, aren’t you Stud?? Stamina indeed.

What did you have today for lunch?

Nathan       11:30

Indeed

I could have replied and given you a heart attack or even asked the same but being a gentleman…

Totally agree

Not big headed and I never called myself that did I? You just have to know your abilities

Garlic salami salad on rye – what about you? Did you manage to get something inside you?

Sophie       11:40

Indeed yes!!!

Ohh, go on then. Be bold … Don’t tease

You’re supposed to say that will never happen!!!

It’s your confidence so. You know what works. Nah

Nathan       12:00

Stop repeating indeed.

Only when I am thinking of taking you from behind in the shower as the pulsating water covers our bodies and I sensually explore every inch of your body with my caressing hands – what about you????

Like it ever would!!!

Nothing wrong with knowing you can give a lady what she desires

How’s that for a Friday morning??? Have I given you your weekend fix?????

Sophie       12:45

Oh my God.

I had to go into a meeting and do you know how hard it was for me to concentrate. I couldn’t stop smiling, it was so embarrassing. I kept going red every time I thought about your very descriptive email.

Have you received my email to your personal address yet?

Are you finished at 4.30?

Nathan       12:50

Don’t blame me – you started it lol I can imagine how hard it was, it’s the same here in anticipation of your email

Yes I got it and sent you a reply

Yep, half four and I’m outta here

Keep smiling

Sophie       12:52

Don’t you dare blame me? You are incorrigible!!

Typical!! It was excruciatingly painful and very arousing at the same time. Damn. Oh dear, have not received your test reply.

Nathan       12:53

Ha ha. I know ooohhh just sent a reply, I think the other one went into my drafts. Oh my word! Wow I must be better than those books you read

Chapter 8

He stopped just inside the huge vestibule and waited patiently for me to answer. It was absolutely magnificent. Holy crap, I didn’t expect this. All imported marble and magnificently expensive antiques from around the world. Right in the centre was a beautiful sweeping ‘Gone with the wind’ staircase. But it was Nathan I couldn’t take my eyes off as he threw his keys into a dish sitting on a huge console table just inside the front door, he was so fuckable. I followed him down a long hallway until we reached the kitchen. He took two bottles of water from the built in cooler and handed me one asking if I’d like a glass with ice? The bottle was fine as I could take it with me to my room.

He repeated his earlier question if I was hungry or did I need to rest before we headed out for the evening? I opted for a short sleep because I couldn’t handle the close proximity much longer! I followed him upstairs keeping my eyes well away from his firm arse. As if! He pushed open a huge black ash door and walked into the most exquisite bedroom I had ever seen. To the right against a feature wall lay a huge black four poster bed with matching bedside tables and the biggest black chandelier hanging directly over it. The walls were painted elephant grey with panelling floor to ceiling all around the room. I loved it. I asked if he had a designer in and was told his ex was an interior designer and designed most of the house. He was in the process of getting rid of every reminder she was ever here and this bedroom was the first one he started with. Jeez, that must be costing a fortune having it re-done.

What on earth did his ex-do? Apparently this was his room which he was giving to me because it was the only room on this floor with a finished en-suite. I hadn’t noticed driving up that it was a three storey. My goodness, the bathroom was like no en suite I had ever seen. It was about the size of my whole upstairs. Right in the middle of the room was a gigantic marble bath again with a huge chandelier hanging above it in clear crystal. Certainly must be one of the largest tubs I have seen in my profession. I recognised the design from the infamous ‘white book’ so knew that it cost at least ten thousand pounds. You could actually fit a small elephant in it. Why you would want a bath that huge was beyond me. Still, I couldn’t wait to try it out. As I had no case, he left to get me something to hang out in. Most likely a tee and bottoms? Oh no, hope it’s not his ex’s?

******

Sophie       09:00

At my desk now. Are you ok?

Nathan       09:15

I am tired after the weekend with Evii and not sleeping too good last night, it was 4am last time I saw the clock. Just couldn’t settle hope today goes quickly?

Sophie       09:30

I’m sorry for not letting you go to bed when you obviously wanted/needed to. I won’t keep you up any longer from now on …

Nathan       09:35

It’s not your fault (or maybe it is) :) that I couldn’t settle – I don’t do tired it makes me grumpy need more caffeine anyway, that child runs rings around me I can tell you my other extra curricular activities don’t tire me out that much

Nathan       11:00

Hi chick,

How are you? I have been fed and watered and feeling a bit better now hopefully will be back on form for tonight

Sophie       11:15

I’ve had a horrible morning!!

I’m so glad you’re almost back to yourself :)

What did you have to eat? I had to have CAKE for my morning break!! Can’t believe you want to do it all over again.

Please explain, extra-curricular activities

Nathan       11:20

What’s wrong Hun?

BIG HUGS for you

I had ocean tails with cherry tomatoes on a bed of wild rocket and buffalo mozzarella I hope the cake made you feel better

I am always up for a repeat session with you are you smiling now?

NO!

Sophie       11:30

You know I always smile before I even read your mail. Thanks for the hugs.

Yummy lunch. I have smoked trout, tomato and Ryvita for later. Repeat session, flattery will get you anything!!! But I won’t be keeping you up anymore Mr. Aldridge :(

Tell me

Nathan       11:30

You are welcome Hun

It was nice, I don’t do trout had a bad experience with it a few years ago. I hope you enjoy yours later

Always UP for more but thank you for your consideration I don’t like being grumpy

A good workout!

Sophie       11:45

I am gently weaning myself off you :(That’s why my replies have been less frequent. It’s understandable why you were soooooo grumpy. I did blame myself though. DIDN’T QUITE WORK DID IT, THE WEANING!!

The gym?

Nathan       11:50

No and I am glad it didn’t work!

I thought I had upset you or something?

Would hate the thought of ever making you sad

Sophie       12:00

That’s so nice. Are you REALLY. You didn’t upset me. It was me thinking I had annoyed you with my never ending emails and preventing you from going to bed. I just don’t want to become a hindrance that when you see my name, you roll your eyes and say Jesus woman, give me a break. I’m very glad to x

Was expecting something more exciting than the gym!

Nathan       12:15

Remember you originally asked me if it would freak me out and I said no it wouldn’t

Sophie       12:35

Thank you.

Sophie       12:45

What’s on the menu today?

Nathan       12:50

Last night’s mixed kebab, didn’t have it last night so brought it to work, easy lunch.

What about you Miss?

Sophie       12:55

Wasn’t much of a boy’s night if you never got to eat your takeaway? Did you even have a drink? Had yesterday’s lunch in the canteen. How’s your day been so far?

Nathan       01:00

Quite good only a few problems, how about you?

Better than yesterday I hope?

Nathan       04:30

Another day done – see you on the other side chick

Sophie       08:30

Dear Mr. Aldridge,

Have you got the lot numbers?

Very kind regards,

Ms O’Shea.

Nathan       08:40

Dear Miss O’Shea,

I am sure Mr Everett sent these to Evan after his visit, if you need anything please let me know.

Best regards,

Mr N. Aldridge

Sophie       08:45

Mr N. Aldridge

Yours

Ms O’Shea.

Nathan       09:00

Good morning Miss O’Shea, I am sure I can meet any of your requirements.

Best regards,

N

Sophie       09:15

Good morning to you,

I hope you are a man of your word because being a lady will hold you to it.

I’m sooooo tired and must apologise for keeping you last night. It was lovely to learn more about you. I will be covering reception for a few hours but feel free to slip one in.

Ms O’S

Nathan       09.25

And to you Miss,

I very much hope so

Me too but happy not grumpy today

Of course I will,

Imagining you are sat on my knee whilst you’re on reception

Sophie       09.45

Hey, I’m back … Yay. On your knee, really!!!??? I can think of something far better. Menu for today Mr. Aldridge. x

Nathan       10.15

Whoop whoop

What would that be then Miss???

Smoked ham with thinly sliced red onion with tomato & rocket and what about you? Have you had something inside you yet … … … …

Sophie       11.00

Have you had something inside you yet … … … … Is that an innuendo?? You’re dirty.

Lol. Just had hybrid tomato and buffalo mozzarella salad.

Delish.

Nathan       11.05

What from me?? Never!!

Chapter 9

I gently closed the door behind me and removed my dress and hold ups and looked longingly at the sumptuous bed. A few minutes later there was a tap and I was grateful that he hadn’t barged in. I stood behind the door almost pressing my chest against it. I opened it enough so he could hand me in what looked like a tee shirt. What, just a tee!!!! Before I could close the door, he asked if I had any preferences for our night out. I opened it slightly wider as it seemed a little rude speaking to him through a crack in the door. Sure I was well hidden, he couldn’t see anything. I shouldn’t have changed so quickly anyway. He mentioned several places around London so I told him to choose as it was my first time. He seemed quite animated and in no hurry as he discussed his favourite haunt but I only wished I had a change of clothes.

He said he’d wake me at 6.30 giving me around two hours to nap. I thanked him then closed the door. OMFG! The dresser mirror was right behind me and the cheeky bastard would have seen everything. No wonder he was all smiles! I bent over mimicking how I would have looked and decided that my arse looked fucking wonderful and hoped he had a huge hard on and that it hurt like hell!! Sneaky fucker. The bed was so comfortable that I fell asleep
