“I love you, too.”

He tightened his grip on me before dipping his head. Rubbing his nose against mine, we smiled at each other and the world fell away. For a few moments, it was just the two of us and the endless amount of love between us.

When his lips touched mine, I didn’t hold back. I poured everything I felt for him into that kiss. Savored the feel of our mouths moving together, his tongue sliding into my mouth. I clutched him tightly, and by the time we broke the kiss we were both panting for breath.

After a few seconds, Jase moved his head and kissed my neck. “Do you think we could cancel this next meeting so I can take you home and get you naked?”

I met his lips once more and we kissed softly. “I would have no objection to that, but I don’t think the marketing team would be too happy about it. They’ve been working so hard on this rebrand and are excited to show us what they’ve come up with.”

We’d decided to rebrand the online store and change the look, since we’d recently purchased a couple of new lines. After conducting a recent survey amongst our customer database, we’d discovered our market had expanded from the age ranges we’d initially targeted when we’d set up the business, so we were aiming for a sleeker, cleaner look to appeal to everyone.

After one final kiss, we released each other. I turned back to my desk and grabbed the box of macarons, removing the lid. Jase reached around me to read the card and shook his head when I held the box up to him.

“You get first pick.”

After taking far longer than it should have to make my selection, I eventually chose the black lemon macaron, which I then broke in half because I knew Jase liked that one, too. Once we’d finished our halves, he picked the chocolate and passionfruit one and did the same.

“Marian, could you come in here for a moment?”

Our assistant promptly appeared in front of us, and when she saw the box I was holding up in her direction her eyes widened almost comically. If anyone had a bigger sweet tooth than me, it was her.

“Would you like a macaron from Pierre Hermé?”

“Oooh! I’d love one, thank you.” She opted for the raspberry macaron and took a big bite. We always brought a box of macarons home for her when we traveled to Paris, so I knew there was no way she’d have turned it down.

“These macarons are so good.”

“Yes, they are.” I looked over at Jase again and kissed him. “I’m so lucky to have such a thoughtful partner.”

He smiled at me. “You deserve everything your heart desires.” His words made me swoon and I was once again lost in our little bubble.

“I’ve got everything my heart desires standing right here.”

“Awww.” I’d almost forgotten Marian was still standing there with us. “You two are so adorable together. Thanks again for the treat.” She left us alone, closing my door behind her to afford us some privacy.

Jase looked at his watch. “We’ve got exactly seven minutes before the meeting starts. Any ideas on what we should do to pass the time?”

I gave him a cheeky grin. “We could eat macarons.”

“We could do that.” He nuzzled my neck. “We could also make out.”

I pretended to ponder each suggestion carefully. “I think I like your option better.”

Jase laughed as I slid my arms around his neck. “Thought you might.”

We got so lost in each other, we only made it downstairs to the meeting room with thirty seconds to spare.

The meeting was thankfully shorter than the hour we’d allotted. Jase and I were both in agreement we were happy with what our marketing team had come up with in terms of design and rebranding, and we signed off on the changes before the meeting ended.

Once it was over, I was no longer in the mood to work. I just wanted to go home and be with my man. Feel his arms around me. His hands all over me as he stripped me naked. His lips on my bare skin. His hard cock deep inside me, driving me crazy and bringing me to orgasm.

Luckily for me, Jase was a more than willing participant. By the time he was done with me, I was beyond satisfied and unable to move.

We lay in bed together, me on my stomach and him on his side, propped up on one elbow while his fingers trailed up and down my spine. The motion was soothing, and I couldn’t remember the last time I felt as relaxed as I did right now.

He leaned over and kissed me slowly, almost leisurely, our tongues touching. I eventually shifted onto my back as Jase gathered me in his arms, my hands flat on his chest. When he released my mouth, he reached over to the open box of macarons on the night table and pulled one out at random.

This one was pale in color, and he placed it in between his teeth before dipping his head toward me. I smiled as I realized what he was doing, and then bit down as well, meeting him halfway so our lips were touching as we each ate half.
