However, my pleasure quickly diminished when she continued.

‘He won’t even know you are blushing under all that cream. Maybe you should wear a mask more often?’

I cringed. Bloody, annoying voice!

I squirmed as I realised we were both still sprawled on the ground. All that muscle may look great in a suit, but it felt even better lying on top of me. I closed my eyes and relished the sensation for a second. My inner devil was delighted by this. ‘Oooh, if only he was on top of us for another reason,’she taunted.

I felt his shoulders and chest shake, and my eyes flew open again. He was laughing at me. Laughing! What an ass.

Still, his laugh sent little tingles all the way down to my core, and I noticed a little splatter of cream at the corner of his mouth.

‘I would love to kiss it right off,’my inner devil purred!

Aargh! No. I pursed my lips in annoyance at both him and her. He was a jerk; it didn’t matter how sexy his smile or voice was or how good he felt, he was a jerk.

And he was still staring at me and laughing!

I opened my mouth to tell him to get off me, and suddenly, his lips were on mine.

He obviously had a similar inner devil to me, I thought absently as he deepened the kiss, and I let him. Yum, fresh cream and Russian male. Nice!

Who said you couldn’t have your cake and eat it, too? Did it matter that he was a jerk if he tasted this good?

I moaned in pleasure, dazed with desire.

My whole body reacted to his kiss in a very pleasant way, and I was pretty sure we were grinding against each other. Oh my, we definitely were, and his body was definitely reacting to mine, too. I felt rather triumphant at that discovery.

My inner devil couldn’t have been more pleased.

ASH

LATER THAT NIGHT - THE MESSY KISS AND THE INFORMANT

As soon as I got the text from Sean, I rushed out of the office and down the hall, but instead of taking the emergency exit, I found myself in the kitchen, disappointed to see it was empty. Damn! I must have been subconsciously looking for the hot waitress after all. I guessed Sonia knew me better than I’d realised.

I had just thought what a shame it was that she wasn’t there and hoped I might still run into her again sometime soon, when I did just that. I hadn’t realised the woman lying face down in cake and cream was her, though, until I had offered her a hand up and ended up sprawled on top of her instead.

I had said something, trying to sound amusing and charming at the same time, but failed dramatically, sounding yet again like a complete jerk. Not my usual MO around hot women whose pants I wanted to charm off, but it seemed to be a pattern whenever she was near.

This woman seemed to have me reacting totally out of character. I suddenly felt embarrassed again, like I had earlier, and that made me uncomfortable.

I knew that she was right; I really should apologise for bumping into her. Twice. But I was way too distracted by her curves while lying on top of her to formulate a coherent sentence. And what nice curves they were, too. I couldn’t stop staring at her.

She was covered with cream and bits of cake, and her eyes were closed. She looked utterly tasty. Like a big cupcake buffet, all for me! I chuckled at that, and her beautiful blue eyes flew open again. I could drown in those eyes. She was a beauty, and I wondered if she would taste as good as she looked. She was covered in cream, but I bet even without it, my hot waitress would still taste sweet.

My inner voice told me to go ahead and have a taste. The woman probably thought I was a jerk anyway, so I might not get another chance. I decided he was no doubt right and quickly leaned down and captured her lips just as she was about to say something.

Yum. Who said you couldn’t have your cake and eat it, too?

I was pleasantly surprised when, instead of pushing me off and slapping my face as I expected, she kissed me back. Wow! I deepened the kiss, enjoying the way her tongue danced with mine in perfect sync. Bloody hell, she tasted good. My cock was already semi-hard, and I couldn’t stop from grinding it against her.

I was entirely lost in the moment, when someone cleared their throat loudly and I reluctantly broke the kiss off.

“Sweet,” I said, licking my lips for a final taste before grinning at her. “Knew you would be!”

Just then, my phone buzzed, bringing me fully back to reality. It was Sean again telling me to get my arse out there as Juana needed to get back before she was missed. I berated myself for messing around when I should have been taking care of business. Damn it!
