“Why don't you move in here?”
Kendra moved through the hallway of the office. After she had woken up in Chad’s arms in his large bed, she’d run out to go home. Jack hadn’t been there and a message hung off the fridge that said ‘Sorry’. That was it. She had gotten dressed quickly and hurried to work. Chad still wasn’t in which she was glad for but the big boss Rory was. He wasn’t as cool, calm and collected as Chad so everyone was on edge, even Tamara. Kendra sat down at her desk outside of Chad’s office. Tamara had requested to move back into the reception job which meant Kendra got her old job back. Today had been the day she swapped with Tamara and because of Rory’s appearance in the office, she had decided to wear her normal conservative suits instead of the come-fuck-me outfits that she was purposely wearing for Chad. Actually, that was an excuse. Ever since Chad had asked her to move in, she’d been quiet and freaked out. How could he ask her that when she had told him she only wanted fun? She had told him so…twice!
“Did you hear?”
Kendra turned around to see Tamara, back in her tight dress, standing over her.
“Why aren’t you out the front?”
“God…Kenny…didn’t you read your email?”
“I just got to my desk!”
Tamara rolled her eyes and pushed up on the side of the desk, waiting for her to log in. Kendra logged in and waited for her Outlook to respond. Everyone in the office were standing over Helena’s desk, talking to her. What the hell was going on? Her outlook finally opened and she saw the farewell email from Helena. She was retiring early to spend time with her husband and to travel. That was weird. Helena loved this job, she wouldn’t voluntarily retire. What the hell had Chad done?
“Kendra,” Rory boomed from Chad’s office. “I need you in here.”
Tamara scuttled off to the reception desk again leaving Kendra to take a deep breath before going inside to see Rory.
“Miss North, take a seat.”
She did, trying to calm down her breathing. Rory wasn’t known for his gentle nature.
“As you may be aware, Chad Caraway has a thing for secretaries. I want you to come to me if he tries anything with you…understand?”
She sighed silently. This wasn’t about her. It was about him.
“He’s been nothing but a gentleman to me.”
“And yet he requested you to be reassigned to the reception desk, and now…you’re back working for him.”
“Tamara didn’t like the assistant role. I was the only choice.”
“And you are okay with that?”
“Of course. I enjoy being an assistant and I love this company.”
Rory nodded his head and looked down to the desk where a document lay in front of him. “I appreciate your loyalty, Miss North. I could use an assistant like you with me at the head office.”
That role had been a revolving door for assistants. No one could handle Rory’s demands but the pay was incredibly generous. It would get her out of the office with Chad and she could actually progress in the head office.
“You want me?”
“Yes. I’ve been told good things about you.”
“Can I think about it?”
“But of course,” he said, pushing the document to the edge of the table. “Read it over and get back to me next week.”
Kendra stood up and reached over to the document before exiting the office. Chad was sitting in her chair, and everyone had gotten back to work. His fingers were laced together and his hands rested on his chest as he pushed back in her chair, relaxing.
“Chad…”
“Kendra…”
“Is there something I can help you with?”
He stood up, pushing her chair toward her, and moving away from her computer but he stayed there.
“You planning on explaining what happened?”
“Not here…” she replied in a hushed tone. She put the document in her desk drawer quickly but not quickly enough. Chad stopped her from closing the drawer and knelt down.
“Climbing the ladder, are you?”
She turned to him, anger sparking through her.
“Before I make a scene, I suggest you fuck off to your office and do your job.”
Chad moved back, off his knees, and into his office. Kendra tried to breathe through the anger, because she knew the entire office would be whispering behind her back and she didn’t want to ruin her chances at becoming Rory’s assistant by going postal.
It had taken Chad all afternoon to get rid of Rory. His eyes hadn’t moved from Kendra all day which had only fuelled Chad’s anger more. She was actually thinking about leaving the office and him. He knew she had been freaked out by his offer for her to stay with him. She’d gone quiet and every time he had tried to explain, she would shove her mouth around his cock and blow his mind. Then…he’d woken up alone. A small knock landed on the door and he saw Kendra walk in hesitantly. “What is it?”
“Uh…your ex-wife is here.”
“Which one?” he asked, fearing the answer.
“Selina. She won’t take no for an answer…what should I do?”
“Let her in.”
Kendra nodded and opened the door for Selina who stormed past, her hands on her hips. She wore a tiny white mini skirt that barely hid her ass cheeks and a pink tank top. Her skin was a dark shade of olive which was new.
“Selina.”
“What the hell? You’re having sluts over to the apartment already?”
“We’re divorced, Selina. You’re in the Bahamas with about four playboys at any given time. This isn’t new.”
“No…you and your sluts aren’t new either. You can’t keep your cock in your pants!”
“Are you done?”
Selina scoffed and looked around the office. “No…I’m only starting.”
She spun on her insanely high stiletto heel and stormed out of the office but he knew better. He followed her closely and saw her stalking toward Tamara.
“Shit.”
“Do you want me to call someone?” Kendra asked.
“No…”
He ran after Selina who spun Tamara’s chair around and pulled at her hair before slamming her head down on the table. Chad pulled Selina’s arms back and away from Tamara.
“Kendra…get Tamara some help!”
Kendra ran past them toward Tamara while Chad wrestled Selina into the janitor’s closet and locked it. Selina screamed and bashed against the door but the door was sturdy and didn’t budge.
“What the hell?”
“She thought Tamara was the one I was taking home.”
“So…if she thought it was me, she would have done it to me? I thought you were divorced.”
“We are.”
Tamara looked up, her nose bloody, but thankfully it wasn’t broken. She had tears running down her cheeks, and her hands were shaking.
“I’ll call an ambulance.”
Kendra moved off leaving Chad with Tamara. If Selina had of attacked Kendra like this, he didn’t know what he would have done but he knew his rule of never hitting a woman would have been broken.
Chapter Eight
~
Two months later
Kendra pulled up outside the apartment building. Chad had been successfully running the secondary office of the company while she had been working for Rory. She hadn’t spoken to him since he hired a new assistant, and only went through him. Yes…him. He’d hired a man and Chip was amazing at the job. Kendra found herself laughing quite a lot at his emails, so much so, that it made working for the arrogant beast Rory just bearable. The money wasn’t such a bad motivator either. She locked the car and went over to get in the elevator. Rory needed Chad’s signature on a few contracts today and he’d failed to send them back to her so she decided to break their two month dry spell and go to him. He was still mad at her for pulling away…but he was getting far too attached to her, this had been the only way. When Helena left the company, Tamara had taken the office manager positio
n and a new receptionist had been hired. Tamara kept in touch with Kendra which as much as she had hated to think of it, she really liked. She knocked on the door twice and waited for it to be opened. The sound of feet coming closer could be heard and her heart sped up. Jesus, what was wrong with her? Chad opened the door with a frown. Kendra couldn’t believe the sight before her. He had several days worth of stubble on his jaw, his eyes were red and bloodshot and his clothes were crinkled.
“Chad?”
“What do you want?”
“Can I come in, please?”
He seemed to think about it for a while before finally he moved the door wider and allowed her to walk through into the apartment. She looked around at the formerly pristine apartment. Clothes scattered the floor and paperwork was spread out over the tabletop.
“What is it, Kendra?”
“Ok…what the hell is this?”
Chad looked around at the mess and shrugged his shoulders. “Did you just come here to be a judgmental cow?”
Taken aback, she huffed out a scoff and moved over to the table to put the documents down. “I need you to sign these. Rory is waiting for them.”
“And you would do anything for him, right?”
“Fuck, Chad, grow up. Sign the damn contracts so I can leave and let you get back to your pathetic life.”
He stormed toward her and pushed the papers off the table with one sweep of his arm. Kendra rolled her eyes and turned to face him.
“Really?”
He pushed her back onto the table and pulled at her skirt. She knew he loved thigh high pantyhose and that was why she had changed into them. Secretly, she had wanted this. She had wanted him to fuck her senseless to make up for the past two months. She watched as he knelt down between her legs and swept them up over onto his shoulders. Kendra barely had time to register what was happening before his mouth was on her pussy, his tongue pushing in between her folds. She arched her back on the table at the feeling of his warm tongue on her wet pussy. His tongue dove into her hole, and flicked up her slit and over her clit roughly. A finger found its way into her hole and pumped slowly while his tongue worked magic on her sensitive little nub.
“Chad…” she groaned as he pushed another finger inside her. His tongue swivelled faster over her, and his fingers increased their rhythm. Her legs shook almost uncontrollably, and her toes were curling her in heels. She clutched as his head and shoved his mouth into her pussy and ground into him. His nose was tickling her clit as his mouth lapped her up. As her climax neared, she felt his fingers intensify and she held onto the table for support. Chad continued the fury on her pussy and licked up her juices as they secreted out of her folds. Not a drop was going to waste. His tongue was rough over her clit which caused a ripple sending her through a hard orgasm. One that was ripping through her right now with such an intensity she could feel her eyes rolling into the back of her head involuntarily as a scream ripped from her throat.
“Does he please you as much as I did?” Chad asked, bitterly. Tasting her again had been a mistake, there was no way he was going to get over it now. The last two months had been horrific. Not one woman he had taken home had been enough for him and the only way he had been able to cum was if he closed his eyes and thought of Kendra’s luscious hips and pussy.
“Who?”
“Do you take me for a fool?”
“Wait…” She pushed off the table and pulled her skirt down. “You think I am sleeping with Rory?”
Chad rolled his eyes and moved away from her. Feigning innocence now. He never would have thought Kendra had it in her for that.
“Chad…I took the job because it pays better. I would never touch Rory and he knows that.”
Maybe he had been harsh. Why hadn’t he just spoken to her when she left? He turned back to face her and saw her standing with her hands on her hips. It just highlighted her fuckable figure.
“I'm sorry.”
Her expression softened. “Look…we had fun…and that is what I want. I don’t want a clingy and possessive boyfriend. It's just not me. I'm terrified of having to be with just one man for the rest of my life.”
His heart hammered in his chest. Was it possible? Could he engage her in a relationship that was open? It had been a dream of his to find a woman just like him and have fun but also feel secure and trust only one person. His possessiveness had been stemmed from thinking she’d never fuck him again, but if she wanted the same thing as he did, then the world was their oyster. There was only one way he could prove they would be good together…and that was to bring her into his world.
“Let me take you out to apologise tonight.”
“Chad…”
“Just as friends…I want to show you somewhere…”
She seemed to be weighing up her options but eventually she agreed and took her documents back to work. Smiling to himself as she left his apartment, he all but ran into the shower to get himself presentable. Kendra was finally going to be his…and in every way possible.
Kendra looked in the mirror and sighed. This had to be the fourth dress she had tried on and she still hated the way she looked. God….it was only Chad and he had clearly specified that this was just as friends. Her inner voice laughed at the thought…yeah, he had just finger and mouth fucked your pussy moments earlier, dummy. But damn it had been hot. He had been so forceful and deliberate. His eyes had almost been black with desire as he licked his way to her core and sucked up her orgasm. Not once had he tried to pleasure himself. The door opened outside and she hesitated. It had been a month since Jack had checked in to rehab. His drinking problem had gotten out of control after she had rejected him but after a long chat, they had decided to stay friends and live together still. Pulling off her dress, she pulled on her silver strappy number that hung just below her ass and strapped her stilettos to her feet before heading out of her room. Jack was just closing his door when he caught sight of her and nodded in acknowledgement before disappearing.
Damn.
She was already running late so she made a mental promise to check in on him tomorrow. Kendra took the stairs two at a time as she ran for the street. Chad was leaning against a black towncar just outside of her apartment.
“How did you know I lived here?”
“Employment profile.”
Chuckling, she looked him up and down. He wore dark blue jeans that fit him perfectly. Every inch of his legs were tight against the denim, causing desire to shoot straight down to her pussy. His button down shirt was rolled up to his elbows again and he was cleanly shaven.
“Wow…I'm not a piece of meat…stop looking at me as if you are weighing up the ways to devour me.”
She immediately looked back up at him and smiled coyly. “Couldn't help it.”
Chad held the door open for her and she moved inside. He moved around to the driver’s side and took off down the main street.
“Where are we going?”
“To a club.”
“Which one?”
“You won’t know it. It has exclusive membership, but if you like it, I'll organise a membership for you.”
“Sounds a bit fancy.”
He laughed. “Not at all. You'll see.”
It was pretty exciting not knowing where they were heading. She watched the streets pass them by as he drove out of the city. Chad kept chatting away about random things and she answered, but her mind couldn't stray from the night ahead. She could only liken the feeling to a kid on Christmas Eve. Finally, they pulled up in a parking lot. The building looked to be an apartment block with a modern feel to it. Chad placed his hand on the small of her back and ushered her inside. Once in the foyer like reception area, a woman sat behind a large desk and smiled at them.
“Mr. Caraway, it has been a long time.”
“Indeed it has, Carissa. I'd like to show Kendra around. She is considering a membership here.”
“Of course,” Carissa smiled over at her. She pulled something from a drawer and handed it to Kendra.
It was a small pin with a stylish P on it.
“Pin it to your dress,” Chad told her. She did as he told her and he ushered her through a door to the left. They walked right into an elevator which was decorated in deluxe black satin with the same stylish P on top of buttons.
“What is this?”
“You are in Pandora’s Box. It's one of my favourite places and I think you'll love it too. This is a place of no judgment and everyone is anonymous.”
“Why would you bring me here?”
“Because I want to show you the kind of relationship I want with you…and from what you have told me…it is the same as yours.”
She knew he wanted more…why hadn't she listened to her gut? Oh well, she could put up with one night with him and give him the heave ho later. The elevator stopped on the third floor and Chad led her out. The room they had stepped into had booths shrouded in netting and all the lights were dim. The entire floor had a feeling of intimacy about it.
“Are we in a brothel?”
He laughed. “No. But it is a place where men and women or women and women or men and men can meet and engage in guilt free sex.”
“Swingers club?”
“It's an anything goes club, Kendra. Most of these people are married to each other, and engage with others who won't try to trick them or tell anyone else.”
Kendra turned to him then, realising what he was saying. “This is what you meant by we could both have what we wanted? An open relationship?”
“Kenny…as long as you came home to me every night, I don't care who you fuck and I would expect the same from you.”
Her chest was fluttering with the possibilities. She could have Chad and the life she always wanted…with no judgment.
“I love you, Kendra, because you are just like me and that makes me very happy.”
“I…I don't like that word…but I couldn't imagine spending my life with anyone else…if we can have this life…the one you're suggesting I don't think we will ever be apart.”
“That's enough for me, babe.”
He placed a soft kiss on her lips before pulling away. “Should I show you the ropes?”
