  “The firewall to the company for the files he hid the virus in will only allow United States access... How do you have his credit card information?” Mr. King looked a strange combination of proud and concerned.

  “That was easy enough- he never cleared his cookies off his laptop. It is company property, so when I was looking through it, I was able to access his account,” Mr. King’s face contorted still further into a concerned look. “I just realized that what I did may not be terribly legal, but desperate times right?” I looked back and forth at them as they continued to just stare at me.

  “He didn’t clean out his cookies? The financial person thought of a computer answer before the computer people. I knew I liked you!” Mr. Thayer’s face broke out in a grin as Mr. King nodded incredulous at my computer savvy. I breathed a sigh of relief and continued to show them what I found.

  “He hasn’t used his card for a couple of days, but based on this information, I would put him in the southeast US. Probably Florida as it will have easy access to the Bahamas to get out of the country quick once the money comes in.”

  The two of them beamed at me. Mr. King gave me the special smile that he only gave me when we were alone at his home and I basked in it. I suddenly frowned as a cold thought popped my sunshine bubble.

  “So we have stopped the virus and can track it back to where he is, but how is this going to keep him from leaking the source code- if he hasn’t already?” The two of them surprised me with smiles. Mr. King motioned for Thayer to tell me the answer.

  “The code he took is from last year- since he didn’t get to keep his work computer he had to use what was on his personal one. The sample he sent us is older code. It looks a lot like the current code, but as I looked at it I recognized it from the stuff Cirrus helped develop. When I was put in charge, we revamped much of the code. Most of the stuff made off of this source code would be stopped or easily patched in with the newer code I wrote.”

  He tried to keep the pride out of his voice, but he knew that his innovations were saving the day. “It would still be pretty awful for the press to find out about this though, so we want to stop him before he can do any real damage. It isn’t quite all sunshine and roses- we need him to activate the virus but not the press.” He leaned back into the leather chair, his eyes still bright but some of the energy fading out of him.

  “His version of the source code could still do some serious damage, especially in the PR department. We still have some serious work to do. Claire, see if you can’t pinpoint his location further and Thayer, I have a couple of ideas I want to run.” Mr. King’s smile was gone as he leaned back towards the computer, and started us back to work.

  Wednesday arrived. The three of us had worked non-stop to prepare for the 5pm deadline; I never left the office during those three days. It was now 3pm and everything that could be in place was. I felt a nervous energy pouring through my system, and I couldn’t sit still or concentrate on my other work.

  Unfortunately the crisis didn’t stop my other job responsibilities, and I had neglected them for the past couple of days. I filtered through my emails and to do list, trying to find something productive to do that could distract me from the tedium of waiting.

  I found a note I had made towards the beginning of my career at King Enterprises. Some of the accounting numbers didn’t look right to me; I had worked with finances and bookkeeping for my entire adult career and as I looked at the books for King Enterprises something in my gut growled. I decided that this was as good a time as any to look for what was bothering me, as I couldn’t seem to concentrate on anything anyway, so I sat down at my desk and began loading the files up on my screen.

  “Vanders.” A sharp female voice accosted me. “Why haven’t you emailed me the budget for next quarter? You missed the last two meetings and I need this done now. Good lord- what do we pay you for?” Olivia Robertson glared at me. I sighed and turned to her. She was always angry at me for some reason or another. The first time I had met her she had glared at me through my introduction to the board. I didn’t know what I had done to make her so angry then, and I still had no idea why she seemed to hate me so vehemently.

  “The proposal will be in your box tomorrow- I emailed you the original options and Mr. King still hasn’t approved them. I can’t make him do this any faster.” I tried to stay calm and put what I hoped passed for cheery on my face. She rolled her eyes and stormed off, her blonde hair swishing as she walked. She was quite pretty, I thought. Pretty awful. I looked over at the clock to see it click to 4:30. Finally, time for something to happen. I closed my computer and headed up to Mr. King’s office.

  Mr. Thayer was already there, tapping his foot nervously, but confidence plastered across his face. He grinned up at me as I entered the room, Mr. King’s smile following right behind. I sat at my spot at his desk and waited.

  Mr. King’s email pinged as a new message hit.

  Where is my money?

  Mr. King calmly hit reply and typed, It’s not coming. Send.

  Ping. Your funeral.

  Mr. King nodded to Mr. Thayer, and we stared at his computer screen. The screen flicked as Cirrus attempted to activate the virus. Thayer’s tracking program initiated and dominated the screen.

  “It found the IP address. It's part of a subnet that's licensed to a motel chain in Miami. In fact, only one motel in the chain doesn't require a credit card to rent a room.” He grinned, his excitement humming through the room at the success.

  “Perfect. Inform our friends.” Mr. King relaxed into his chair, barely able to keep a grin off his face.

  Within ten minutes the local police had the only room in the motel rented by a single man who paid cash under surveillance. I imagined what it must have looked like, in a dingy motel room in Miami, Florida. Cirrus bent over his computer, angrily triumphant and releasing his revenge on King Enterprises, when suddenly the door is beat down and men in black suits storm the room.

  I tried not to giggle as I thought of the look on his face as the FBI Cyber Crime unit took him down. He was going to go to prison for a long time, and King Enterprises was safe. We had won. Mr. King stood behind me as a phone call from the FBI came in saying they had caught him with all the evidence they needed. His hands felt warm and perfect on my shoulders and he squeezed them in victory.

  I played with the pearl necklace he had given me a few months ago as I sat, Mr. King across the table staring at me. We had just finished dessert, a Sacher Torte. It was at least 3 layers of dark chocolate fudge cake, with apricot jam & chocolate ganache between the layers, and dark chocolate glaze on top. I had never tasted anything so delicious and decadent. He smiled at me and filled my wine glass up, his eyes dark with desire. I craved him. I wanted him covered in a dark chocolate glaze.

  He must have been able to read my thoughts, because he stood and held his hand out for me. His hand felt warm in mine, and I carried my wine glass with us as he led me to his bedroom. As we reached the door, he paused at the door, his hand lingering on the handle. With a smile, he pushed the door open to reveal the bedroom bathed in candlelight. Tea light candles adorned the furniture, dozens of candles flickering with a soft golden glow. It was beautiful. I set my glass down and kissed him passionately, our lips meeting with joy.

  The door closed softly behind us, as he kissed me again, taking me into his arms and questing his tongue deep into my mouth. I moaned into his kisses, his hands sliding up and down on my satin dress. He found the zipper and undid the back, letting the dress slide off and onto the floor. A sweet smile crossed his face as his hand grazed my pearls, obviously happy I had worn them to dinner. With gentle kisses, he crept down my neck, down my shoulders and down my arm to my hand. He brought my hand to his lips and kissed it like a gallant knight.

  I wondered how happy silly my smile was as I slipped off my shoes and he brought me around to the bed. I noticed that he had a single black satin sheet on the bed and that it had a s
mattering of pink rose petals. I picked one up and twirled it in my fingers, trying my best to look coy.

  “I thought you earned a romantic evening after this week’s excitement. I couldn’t have done it without you.” His voice was low and husky, making my skin itch with desire. I started to speak, but he placed a single finger over my lips, gently shushing me.

  “Don’t say anything. Just enjoy this.” And then he kissed me. My heart fluttered with his kiss; it was so full of want, of need. His hand slipped around and undid my strapless bra, letting it fall to the floor. He then kissed down my neck again, my hands going to his beautiful hair as he kissed each nipple, making them stand hard and erect, ready for more.

  He knelt before me and continued to kiss my breasts as his hands worked off my lacy panties. A shiver rippled through me as he blew gently on my wet nipples, letting his kiss marks cool my skin. He stood up slowly, and wrapped a black satin scarf around one wrist and motioned me up onto the bed. He loosely tied the scarf to one of the tall bedposts. It was loose enough that I could touch my face with the tied hand, but firm enough that he would always be in control. I loved it.

  I stretched out on the bed, feeling the cool satin slip beneath my skin, the rose petals soft and fragrant. I looked over to see him slowly disrobing. He unbuttoned his shirt and took it off slowly, the firelight glancing off his muscles and creating beautiful shadows. His pants slid into a pool on the floor and he stood naked, his erection growing as he looked down on my tied to his bed.

  He grinned his predatory grin, and picked up a candle from the nightstand. I raised my eyebrows as he approached with it, unsure what he was doing. He raised the candle high above my stomach and slowly tipped it, letting the wax drip and fall onto my stomach. The hot wax seared across my bellybutton, quickly hardening and the pain subsiding. My spine felt like a rod of molten metal, threatening to consume me with want.

  A low chuckle rippled through the dark as he slowly climbed onto the bed and straddled my legs. He let the candle wax build again, and brought it closer to my skin, this time dripping a long line from my bellybutton up to my cleavage. The sudden heat made me squirm with delight, and he put his weight down onto my legs to keep me still. I watched the candle flicker above me as he waited for the wax to pool again, the waiting keeping tension tight within me. That predatory grin flashed as he poured the wax across the tops of my breasts, the wax splattering and dripping down across my skin; the heat searing through to my core, making me want more.

  He set the candle onto the flat space between my ribcage and bellybutton, his hand holding it steady against my skin. With his free hand he slowly pet my vaginal lips, sending little shoots of pleasure at the soft touch. He slowly peeled me open, revealing my clit to his eager fingers. He began a simple two finger swirling motion, blood rushing to fill my clit, sensation pouring into me.

  I arched my hips up into his hand, wanting more but the motion moved the candle and caused it to spill the hot wax onto my sensitive skin. I cried out with pleasure and pain, wanting to rock my hips into his hand but fearing the sear of the wax. I could feel the thrum inside me reaching a fever pitch, my body craving release, my core a ball of fire as I approached my release.

  “Come for me,” he whispered as I slowly tipped into ecstasy. I couldn’t stop my hips from bucking upward, my body writhing with pleasure as my orgasm took me. Wax poured out from the candle, spilling across my abdomen, the heat scorching through me and adding extra sensation to my vibrating body. I screamed with pleasure as my orgasm didn’t stop, the pain pushing me immediately into a second, with no pause between. My lungs gasped for oxygen as pleasure made me forget to breathe, my body quaking with bliss.

  As I slowly stopped shaking, and my body returned to me, Mr. King set the candle on the table. I looked up at him, the candle light flickering and making his eyes glow as he slid one knee between my legs, opening me further to his desires. His erection was full and hard, my orgasm obviously turning him on. He took it in his hand and ran it up and down along my pussy lips, letting my juices cover him before he entered.

  He slowly pushed the tip against my opening, and forcefully pushed through the slight resistance to enter me. I moaned softly, pulling my arm against its restraint as he pushed deep into me. My body sang as he filled me completely, and then cried out as he slid back out again. He straddled my leg and continued to push deep into me, pulling out slowly only to fill me totally again. We found a rhythm, him pulsing into me and me rising my hips to meet him. I let myself get lost in our rhythmic dance, the soft light making me think I was in heaven.

  He slowly pulled out, and moved off my legs, and growled softly to get on my hands and knees. I turned perpendicular to the bed, maneuvering my tied arm into position. I could feel his heat behind me as he slowly penetrated deeply into me. I screamed with pleasure, feeling him skewer me, his hands gripping my hips. He pounded his cock as hard as he could, and he spanked my ass in the same spot as he had abused the other day. A wordless cry filled the room as a spike of pain seared into my world.

  He put a hand on the middle of my shoulder blades and pushed my head down into the bed. I tucked my knees into my chest, my cheek pressed into the slippery satin. I felt his hand leave my back, and instead of feeling him grab a hold of my hip, I instead felt hot wax pour onto my back. My cry was muffled by the mattress as the wax quickly cooled on my hot skin. I could feel it harden and crack as he continued to stuff himself into me.

  I could feel his cock swelling, his pattern becoming erratic as I waited for him to come into me. The slight extra growth increased my pleasure, and the slight grunt and groan as he released, made my body respond in kind. I could feel my pussy contracting down on his cock as he released his stream of white into me. I squeezed with all my might, milking his cock for every drop I could squeeze.

  I sighed with loss as he slowly pulled out, both of us satiated and content. He ran his fingers down my spine, somehow still eliciting shivers at his touch. He carefully untied me, his fingers caressing my skin as he removed the satin. I kissed him, drinking him in as deeply as possible. He gave me the smile that he reserved for only me, the one I only saw when we were very alone and he was completely happy. I couldn’t help but feel pure happiness as I looked at him.

  He kissed my hand again, and instead of letting go, pulled me gently to the bathroom. I followed him like a happy puppy. He hit several buttons, turning on the massive shower to the settings that I enjoyed; steam filled the room as he pulled me into the water, multiple jets pouring hot water onto us both. I sighed with contentment as he began working the soap into a lather on my body, happy to have the billionaire’s trust.

  Worthy of the Billionaire’s Love

  I couldn’t sleep. I had tried for what felt like hours, even though the clock said it was less. My eyes were tired, but even when I closed them, I felt no relief. Every position I lay just felt awkward. like my joints didn’t fit right in my body. I finally gave in and just got up, thinking that maybe a hot shower would relax me enough to get some sleep tonight. I slipped out of bed, leaving my sleeping lover snoring softly tangled in satin sheets. I carefully closed the bathroom door before turning on the light, not wanting to wake Mr. King with the light.

  The marble floor was cold to my feet, but as I turned on the water the room began to heat up from the steam. I put in my settings on the digital display, setting the three shower heads to a toasty pulsating spray with the steam function turned to high. I stepped into the warm water, enjoying the heat and feeling the moist air in my lungs.

  The water tinkled softly into the drain, and I could feel my worries going with it; I took the moveable shower head off the wall and set the water to a heavy stream, putting it on my shoulders. The water massaged them, the heat and pressure forcing my neck and shoulders to unclench. I didn’t even realize how tense they were until they started to loosen.

  My job was stressful. It was a good kind of stress, and I really enjoyed the challenges of working for King Enterp
rises. Gregory King, the blonde boyish prince of hand-held security software, was a good boss. Demanding, controlling, and exacting, but only because he truly cared about his company. He insisted on perfection and I had to work hard every day to perform to his high expectations. It was a constant challenge to stay a step ahead of his desire, to make sure I had the information he was going to want, and problem solve to find solutions to any problem that arose.

  I smiled, remembering the day the FBI cybercrime unit called Mr. King with the news they had arrested Cirrus, an angry ex-employee, for violating federal cybercrime laws. I had helped save the company from disaster and Mr. King had called me extraordinary that day. In public. The memory still made me glow with pride.

  I moved the shower head to my other shoulder, letting the hot water melt away the tension. It wasn’t his corporate side that I was in love with though. It was the side he showed outside the office, the side that only I got to see, that made my heart sputter in my chest. I spent most of my nights now at his mansion, enjoying his company. He found ways to satisfy my body, which let sleep come quickly to me when I was with him.

  I was pretty sure I was in love with him, but I hadn't found the right time to tell him yet. I had a terrible fear that I would tell him how I felt, and he wouldn't feel the same. I wanted to hear him tell me he loved me, but I couldn't bear the thought of losing him. He was the center of my world, both privately and publicly. I couldn't afford to tell my boss that I loved him and risk losing my job if he didn't feel the same. I couldn't risk losing both my job and my heart. I needed him. His warmth at night kept away the nightmares, and I slept better knowing he was there. Just not tonight.

  I moved the shower head off my skin for a moment, rolling my shoulders and working the lingering tightness. A naughty thought streaked through my head, and I considered moving the shower head between my legs, but a burst of cold air from the shower door opening caught me off guard.
