“You’re damn right! Making love to you, having sex, being bawdy and raunchy and totally without shame right now is soothing my wounded wings. Reggie pissed me off not coming on this trip, and I’ve been afraid to say it. Right now, I’d just as soon he doesn’t know anything about us. I’d rather keep these moments with you all to myself.”

For her own reasons Alex agreed. As unpredictable as Will’s response might be, holding back this information was a gamble she was willing to take for the perverse thrill of keeping the secret of their lusty infidelity to themselves.

Chapter Six

Gazing at the skyscraper at night, Jocelyn’s sensibilities were acute enough to know it was Reggie’s light burning high above the street below. He was too far away to actually see him; but she could almost feel his presence as if he was next to her. So close now, after so many days away. She dashed toward t

he door, smiling at the security guard who cleared her to the seventh floor.

“It’s Sunday, Reg, didn’t you expect me home?” Jocelyn said appearing in the door of his office. Seeing his blond head buried up to his eye balls in work, it was hardly different than when she left the week before.

He looked up. “You’re back,” he said with hardly a wrinkle in his expression.

“Is that all the welcome I’m going to get?”

“It’s all you deserve.”

“All I deserve! How about ‘I love you, I missed you, can’t wait to take you in my arms?’ We’re still romantically entangled, aren’t we?”

“That’s probably why I’m so pissed.”

Jocelyn moved inside the office and around the massive desk so she could have her hands on him. “What’s wrong?” she asked, her fingers running through his blond locks.

“It’s been a rotten week. I could have used your comfort.”

“Really?” She was pleased by that sentiment. He did miss her even if he wasn’t exactly saying so.

He pulled her hands from their tender gestures, and held them while he looked up at her. There was little warmth in his eyes, and he did look weary.

“So tell me all about it,” she said.

“No. You tell me all about your trip.”

“Ah, it was perfect. Couldn’t have been any better. Lots of sun, several damn good massages, and the food was terrific. Alex and I relaxed. Exactly what you should have done.”

“So you’re going to rub it in?”

“You wanted me to tell you about it. And…” she sidled in closer, “I’m so fucking horny, I’d like to screw you right on this desk.”

“Is that so? Well, I think I’ll make you wait,” he said, pulling away from her altogether and returning to his work.

“You ass!” Jocelyn snarled.

“It gets me off, darling, being an ass.” He smirked enough so Jocelyn decided he wasn’t going to pounce on her right away.

“How about coming home with me? It’s getting late.” She looked at her watch to see it was nearly eight o’clock.

“I think I’d rather check into some cheap motel as go home.”

“Want me that bad, huh?”

“No. Your little fool of a maid has me pissed off, I don’t want to be there.”

“What?”

“I resent your leaving her in charge of things. Her incompetence is unbelievable.”

“Oh, Reg, I don’t believe that. Maybe she’s just nervous around you.”
