The meeting was mostly one for introductions where the personnel got to meet Reyona as the chairperson of the company.
Most of them had seen her come a few times already, and they knew about how she had filled in for Phil on the day of the event as well, but they still didn't know her real identity.
After Phil introduced her, to the surprise of those who had thought that she was Phil's girlfriend, they all began to introduce themselves as well.
Then Reyona gave a little speech that encompassed her gratitude for the efforts they had been putting in, a promise of due rewards to those who continue to work diligently, a reminder of the goals of the company and how they were the face of the company who must endeavour to portray the company in the right light every time.
She soon dismissed them, and they were barely out of the room when he clapped as he stood up from where he had been sitting on one side of the room.
"You were brilliant," he said as he came forward and kissed her on the forehead.
"You think?" She asked in a rare need of validation.
"Absolutely. They love you."
She laughed nervously and said "That might be a little over the top. This is like the talking stage between us, at least."
"Trust me on this" he said as he slung his arm around her and said "Who can blame them too? Only an idiot wouldn't love you. You know. You are a total package, Mrs. Rohan. If I didn't know what the answer would be, I would have poached you from your boss and put you in charge of my group of companies. Then I can finally retire and spend more time with my wife."
"Ha ha," Reyona said with a wrinkle of her nose before she moved back from him.
When she was tempted to move closer to breathe in his intoxicating cologne, she merely stepped around him and stepped towards the door.
He grabbed her hand before she could go far and pulled her flush against him back to front.
"Maxwell," she said in a hushed tone.
"What?" He asked innocently in the same tone.
When she looked towards the glass walls where anyone who was inclined could easily see them, he said "Oh my bad. I am so sorry" in a voice that was far from being apologetic.
Then the next minute he was leaning down to kiss her neck.
Reyona danced out of his arms and hurried towards the door.
Before she opened the door, she patted herself into place.
Checked her face in the mirror to see if she was flushed and quickly rushed out of the door before he could get to her.
His laughter dogged her heels as she walked briskly towards her office.
Nicole smiled at her when she passed her quickly as she felt him getting closer to her.
"Great, now the assistant will think I am a silly leader" she thought before she jerked her door open and entered.
After promising her that he would remain a perfect gentleman for the rest of the day, he got busy on his phone in the entertainment section of the office.
"I have some emails to check and return anyway. Might as well get them done now. I also have some other things that will keep me busy and out of your way until you are ready to leave. At this rate, you won't even know that I am here."
Yeah, right. She thought in exasperation as she tossed her pen on her desk minutes later.
After she had read a line about three times without understanding a thing, she knew it was hopeless.
Expecting to get anything done while he was sitting there all calm and unruffled was useless.
Look at him typing away as if he was not doing things to her even without saying anything.
How could he be that cool as a cucumber when she was almost going nuts here?
She had tried to keep her mind solely on work and nothing but work. Still, it had been a futile effort.
At one point, she was tempted to stand up and go closer to him just to see if he was truly engrossed in what he was doing in a way that she couldn't, yet she knew that would mean admitting her weakness when he came to him.
She was a professional woman, and would show just how…
"Need some help there, babe?" He asked so suddenly that she jolted in her seat.
"No…" shit! She thought when she saw where his eyes were as he asked her that question.
Even as she thought of how she needed to show him that she was not weak, she had been trailing her fingers from her collarbone down her throat to the top of her breasts.
Just the way he did.
"I am working," she said emphatically as she looked away from him.
"Okay, ma'am. I respect that." He said in such a serious tone that she automatically looked back at him.
Only to see him grinning mischievously.
They both laughed, and then he said "Have your dessert."
Winked at her, then turned back to what he was doing.
Since she couldn't seem to work anyway, she unboxed the Tiramisu and dipped the spoon into it.
"Are you sure you don't want some of this?" She asked as she put the spoon in her mouth and licked it.
"Some of what?" He asked as his head turned towards her direction so fast that she smiled. "You were the one who said you wanted to be professional, Mrs Rohan. Are we forgetting that so soon?" he asked with a heated look.
"What? I was only asking if you wanted some Tiramisu" Reyona said innocently, even as she scooped out a tiny bit of the Tiramisu, put it in her mouth and let out a soft moan as she pulled the spoon out of her mouth slowly.
He dropped his phone immediately.
"No," Reyona said emphatically. Then she set the Tiramisu aside as she said "Get back to work. I need to do the same."
She bent her head over the pages in front of her.
"Okay then." He said in a disgruntled tone that had her smiling secretly.
Finally, she got off work, and they went to the parking lot to pick up her car.
What was it about cramped spaces? She wondered as she rolled down the window.
They had shared a passionate moment in the elevator, too, that could have led to more if not that the elevator dinged right on time, and they quickly separated.
As she sat beside him in the car as well, she had to forcefully turn her head away from him to calm herself a bit.
"You look peaked, Mrs. Rohan. Something I can help with?"
"Just drive," she said through gritted teeth.
"You know you don't have to hold it in, right? I mean I am not complaining, you know."
Of course, he wouldn't.
"Drive, okay?"
He touched her that moment and she lost her slippery hold on her control.
She automatically removed her seat belt, turned to him and kissed him aggressively.
"We need… to go…home. Anybody could see… us here" she said, with kisses even as she grabbed his hand and guided it under her.
"Then let them see." He responded with harsh breathing. "Don't you just love living dangerously?"
"Oh my…"
Maxwell released the seat lash and pulled the car seat back so she could have the chance to wiggle onto him.
"Don't hold back, Reyona. You never have to hold back. Not with me."
He pulled his straining bulge free as she rose over him and sank deeply onto his engorged shaft.
"Fuck!" He said with a long groan as she moaned in tandem with him.
He grabbed her ass and guided her up and down his straining dick as they rode each other to oblivion.
Maxwell's phone started ringing.
It was automatically ignored as the couple stayed locked to each other.
Lost in their passion, they didn't take note of the phone when it rang the second time.
