“I know I gave you a hard time in the beginning and I am sorry. Outside of El and Princeton, I’ve never had anyone fight for me the way you did. I know you got paid to do it, but I also know it came from a genuine and sincere place, and I thank you,” Deyshonda said then hugged me as well.

I was moved by their kind words. I wish I could tell them how much fun this actually was, but it really was life or death for them, so I kept that to myself.

“It was my pleasure, Roc, and Coco. It really was.”

We talked for a while then they left to mingle. I stuck around until the crowd died down and then retreated to the war room. I wanted to look at it one more time before they came in and boxed everything up.

“You did it, Ms. Patterson,” I heard the smooth baritone voice behind me.

“I did!” I said and rushed into his arms without thinking. He caught me, and we hugged. As we separated our eyes met before I knew what was happening, I was pressed against the wall while we feverishly kissed each other. His lips were demanding and persistent. He lifted me by my behind, and I wrapped my legs around his waist. I could feel his erection pressed into my center. I started grinding on him while we continued to kiss. He moved me from the wall and laid me on the table in the center of the room. I pushed his jacket off his shoulders. He shrugged it off the rest of the way. He leaned down to continue kissing me while I worked on the buttons on his shirt. After getting his buttons open, he reached under my skirt and pulled my panties down. I went for his belt buckle when we heard laughter on the other side of the door.

We paused and looked at each other.

Fuck it.

I started back working on his belt, and he leaned back down and started kissing me.

“Wait,” Samuel said while backing away.

“Oh…the cameras…”

“Exactly.”

I sat up on the table and adjusted my jacket we hadn’t removed yet.

He extended his hand to help me off the table. He wrapped his arms around my waist.

“Come home with me.”

I nodded my agreement

He quickly buttoned up his shirt and then picked up his suit jacket from the ground and put it back on. I found my panties and slipped them back on.

We examined each other’s clothes to make sure everything was in place before we walked out the room.

“I will meet you downstairs,” he said as he opened the door and stepped out.

I walked out of the room a few minutes later. I said my goodbyes to the few people who were still there. I got off the elevator and saw Samuel standing by the side exit door. I made my way to him. He took my hand and led me to his car.

“When I said come home with me, I was talking about my house in Wentzville, not my apartment. Is that okay?”

Wentzville was a city on the outskirts of Saint Louis. It was mostly rural but people who wanted a break from the city, built houses there.

“Yes.”

He held my hand while he drove.

I was wondering how we got here. Not that I was complaining, but as attracted as I was to Samuel, I didn’t think the feeling was reciprocated.

“Averie.”

He glanced at me then focused back on the road.

“Yes?”

“I’ve been attracted to you since the moment you walked into the conference room. I didn’t want to act on the attraction because I didn’t want you to think I was doing the same thing Barry did to you.”

“If you were attracted to me, you sure had a funny way of showing it. You were mean.”
