Our kisses were light and soft at first, before growing firmer and deeper. His tongue pushed into my mouth to meet mine, shyly at first, growing bolder, until he was claiming full control of my mouth, kissing me hard, as his tongue stroked mine. His hands roamed over my shoulders, and down my spine, sending a delicious shiver right through my body which ended in my groin.
"Are you cold baby?" He asked. I shook my head, I was practically melted in a mush of hormones, and although making out felt rather adolescent, I was enjoying the slowness of it. I went back in for more kisses.
Eventually I pulled away, "I need to go home."
"Please stay, I really need to make love to you tonight."
"I can't, not tonight. Another night." I didn't want to spell out that it was time of the month.
"Why not?" He looked concerned. "Don't you want to?"
"Oh yes, I want to. By Saturday, all will be fine."
He twigged, " oh ok, I see. Saturday it is then. I'll pick you up at six, and I honestly can't wait." He kissed me again, a deep, needy kiss, before Roger took me, and all my bags home.
Chapter 3
I was in the office bright and early the following morning, due to having to forego my swim. I fired up my screen to check my emails, and make a start on my paperwork. An email from Ivan popped into my inbox. Smiling, I opened it.

Elle,
I'm sure it's Saturday today. My secretary tells me it's only Thursday. Is she lying?
Am about to combust

It's only 8 hours since I last saw you. Premature anticipation a problem for you? ;)

I pressed send, and carried on replying to Paul Lassiter about his umbrella company. My inbox pinged again.

Anticipation, premature or otherwise, is always the best bit. ;)

I'm sincerely hoping the eventual conclusion will be far better than the anticipation. ;) now, I need to get on with my work. I have some extremely demanding clients to keep happy.

Nobody demanding as much as me I hope?

I was too wrapped up in getting the information Paul required, sent to him, to reply to Ivan straightaway. I had quite literally just pressed 'send' when my phone rang. It was Ivan. "Hello beautiful, you didn't reply to my last email?"#p#分页标题#e#
"I was just about to. I was just doing a work one, I can truthfully say that you are definitely my most demanding client."
"But am I your favourite client?"
"You most certainly are."
"I don't want to wait till Saturday to see you."
"I have a full schedule till then. Plus, you know, it's not a good time."
"I know. Well have a good day, and call me if you have some spare time."
"Will do. Speak to you later."
I hugged myself with glee. Only two days to go. Kissing last night seemed to have broken my apprehension about getting physical with him. I'd even had a spin with my trusty B.O.B to ease some of the sexual tension last night so I'd been able get off to sleep. I was wearing one of my new outfits, and carrying my new
Prada bag. Life really did feel pretty good.
I spent most of the morning with Mr Carey, going through the governance issues we were tackling for Oscar. I expressed my concerns about the LIBOR reporting, and he suggested daily website posting of the rate they calculated, so that the process was seen to be transparent. I called Oscar, and suggested it.
"Easy enough to do. I do wonder why you’re worrying about it though. It's never even been mentioned in the press. I doubt anyone even knows what it is. If it makes you happier though, we'll start it today."
"There's a lot of anti-bank sentiment around, so I wouldn't be surprised if it came under scrutiny at some point. As long as you're seen to be transparent, it should head off problems further down the line." We went on to discuss the auditors, and the banking code changes that were coming into force. Oscar was impressed with Mr Carey's knowledge of audit protocols, and was happy to meet with him the following week to finalise the changeover to our company.
