Rose Blood

by Jessica Miles

  Chapter 8

  It was two and a half hours before she spoke again. He had made her three coffees in between.

  “Okay, that’s it for today. Take a look at it right now Harry. What do you see?”

  He switched his files out and loaded up the new fund. He looked at the bottom of the screen, the fund summary boxes.

  “… let’s see… Current Fund Value… 1.5255 billion… Daily Gain +1.7%. No way Ro, I don’t believe it, you’ve just made 1.7%? That’s 25.5 million up on his fund in two fucking hours! What’s your secret girl…? I am in awe of you!” He really couldn’t get his head around it.

  “I just got rid of the oil stocks and gave it a nuclear power boost, there’s a little bit of volatility in the pricing there today, that’s the main movement, then I switched out some gold and added diamond shares, there’s a thread in the news about a number of diamond mines closing. I also did a little shifty on the blue chips, moved some technologies in. Nothing much really. I’m just sending DeVere the first day’s profits over… d’you think he’ll be pleased Harry?”

  “You’ve gotta be kidding me…! What guy doesn’t want an extra 1.7% in his pocket, especially at that scale. It’s phenomenal Ro. I’m more than in awe. Seriously I am!” She was a real life money making wonder woman on top of being the sexiest thing he’d ever laid eyes on.

  They packed up and left the office in a little cloud of success and secret collaboration and headed out for a celebration together.

  “Let’s go to that new bar that’s opened around the corner tonight” suggested Rose spotting a couple of their team and sexy Samantha loitering outside their usual with her IT crowd. She took his hand in hers quickly and changed direction across the Plaza.

  “Oh…okay then, why not?” …. why the hell was Rose suddenly holding his hand?

  They went in the new bar and ordered a glass of wine each, Harry paid and she looked around for a good spot, choosing to stand round the far end of the long bar counter, in an empty, private corner. It was a little quieter here, the bar music wasn’t so loud and they couldn’t be seen easily. She took a big gulp of her wine…

  “I really am just dying to hear about your day. I want all the details, come on! What was DeVere like? What did you do?”

  “I don’t want to talk about him Harry, he’s just so ugly and unpleasant… absolutely nothing special at all…” They both laughed at her rather obvious lies. She really didn’t want to be thinking about Marcus at all at the moment. Another big gulp of her wine made its way down…

  She had made a big decision early that morning and now was the perfect time to start… She looked at Harry watching her with his usual deep blue lustful gaze… he really was looking fabulous today in his dark blue suit and tie and that striped shirt she liked… so very hot and so very kissable… her stomach gave a little flutter… then a much bigger one…

  “Just need to sort myself out for a minute Harry, then I’ll tell you something…”

  She took her shapeless jacket off as she absolutely didn’t want to be seen in it any more, not in front of him… She really wished she wasn’t wearing these old clothes just now. She rolled up her long shirt sleeves slowly and deliberately to her elbows whilst taking some good long looks at him and flicking her hair back over her shoulders sensuously. She added a little smile too. He seemed mesmerised… Her stomach clenched some more and her breathing was going all over the place… She carefully undid another two shirt buttons down to the point of decency to make herself look more appealing whilst giving him some rather flirtatious eye contact in between… hopefully he was getting the message…

  Harry was propped up against the bar watching her silently. He was having real trouble breathing properly. He couldn’t take much more of this, being so close to her, playing about with her clothes, undoing her buttons, giving him sexy little looks and teasing him so much. Why was she doing this? He sat six feet away from her at work and that could be pure torture at times.

  Rose finished her clothing improvements and taking a long deep breath she took a small step forward standing close to him giving him a rather nervous little smile. She felt her heartbeat pick up rapidly at the thought of what she was about to do. She was more than excited and about to cross her line.

  She leaned into him a little, slipping her arms around his waist. She locked eyes with him as she swept her fingers softly up and down his back. His totally stunned expression stared back at her. It seemed as if he had stopped breathing completely.

  “Harry, I’ve had my think about us… it’s okay with me now, if you want to…” She moved her face very close to his, just a few inches away. He could make the final move. She was in his space now.

  Harry finally came out of his Rose induced trance. He lifted his hand to her head pulling her towards him. The final small space between them closed as he touched her lips softly with his, savouring the first touch of her with every ounce of his being. He couldn’t quite believe it! Was she really letting him in?

  He breathed in her scent, the delicious deep Rose perfume he had only ever experienced a taste of from a distance…

  His mouth opened a little, tasting her with the edge of his tongue… she opened hers too her tongue finding his…

  A sudden rush of heat instantly engulfed the pair of them as they moulded together and started kissing each other with a heady passion.

  His mind was still in unbelieving mode as a tidal wave of desire began to roll around his body. Kissing Rose had set him alight, hot flames licking around him. He felt faint with longing, pent up emotion and pure sensation. It was a wildly exciting mixture of feelings.

  “Your place or mine?” he asked her in breathless wonder.

  “I think we should find somewhere much closer than that” She whispered back.

  She wanted him so much she felt dizzy with it. She was positively orgasmic over him already and they hadn’t even done anything yet! How could this be?

  “The Destin hotel across the Plaza is supposed to be nice Harry. Shall we go there?”

  “Rose I’d go anywhere with you at this moment. Let’s get going right now.”

  Chapter 9

  “This is just beautiful Harry.” She announced less than ten minutes later, as she gazed around the most expensive and opulent hotel suite she had ever been in. He took his jacket off and came up behind her, He put his arms around her waist, holding her close, pressing his lips to her neck and breathing in the divine Rose scent that was all hers.

  “Rose, I am almost dying for you.”

  She turned around to face him.

  “Harry, I feel the same way… honestly… I’m surprised at just how much I want this.”

  “But why now?”

  “It’s been in my mind for a long while actually.”

  “Has it? Well I’d never have guessed…”

  “I keep things close to my chest.”

  “So it seems. Any more secrets to tell?”

  “Nope, I’m all out of words just now, got other things going on…”

  She pulled him in for a very long passionate kiss. They were soon far, far away in a sensational new world of their own…

  After a while Rose broke away feeling breathless and hotter than an oven. She moved out of his arms, wandering over to the very appealing super king size bed, running her fingertips over the silky purple covering. She turned the light dimmer switch on low, sat down and discarded her boots and socks and then leaned back on her hands on the bed, looking at Harry and waiting. Steaming with desire, lust and anticipation was the best way to describe how she felt.

  “Can I take those clothes off you now?” he joked a little nervously, following her over.

  “I wish you would and make it soon. I can’t wait another bloody second!”

  He pulled her up from the bed and started to unbutton the remainder of her shirt. His hands were shaking, his breathing wildly uneven with heated excitement. He finally got the shirt off, kissing one bared shoulder and dropped his h
ands to undo the button on her trousers. He slid the zip down slowly and they fell to the floor. There she stood in her pale pink underwear before him and his eyes drank her in with wonder.

  “You are just so lovely Rose. I still can’t believe I have you here like this.” He pulled her against him lowering his hands to hold her pink lacy backside and nuzzling her neck with his lips.

  “My God Harry, I’m just about on fire for you … so please start believing it quick! Get your gear off and get me on that bed!” She could hardly breathe for excitement as she frantically tried to undo his tie for him…

  He’d never undressed so fast in his life and they fell on the bed pretty soon after that… their skin burning red hot against each other.

  He started to kiss her and his hands roamed all over her, undoing and tugging off her pink underwear. He was in a state of pure ecstasy. He sank into kissing her with a depth of passion that made him feel weak inside. No one had ever made him feel quite the way she did right now.

  She was all his… he had her here with him finally… It had taken so very, very long.

  His tongue twisted around hers in a perfect combination of heat, love and lust. His hands wandered through her hair, around her neck, over her simply gorgeous breasts and lower down her equally gorgeous legs. His mouth trailed a pathway of fire down to her breast. Her skin was so soft and smooth and he wanted to taste it all. He licked and sucked her sensitive nipple and she gasped out loud arching her back up to him and opening her legs a little as his fingers started to touch her intimately. He finally began probing deep inside of her, so hot and wet. As he touched her inside the most deep felt sensations he had ever experienced swamped him. He had never been so hard, or had such a vivid, hungry, almost painful ache all over as he did from being with her.

  “I’ve never wanted anyone so much in my life…” He gazed at her with hazy eyes…

  “I want you so much too Harry…” She felt it like nothing else mattered…

  She was completely lost in the things he was doing to her, this was just too incredibly gorgeous and she wanted to eat him alive… her hands had a mind of their own and were caressing their way around his lean lightly muscled body. Then they found his and she began guiding him around her slowly and purposefully. She kissed his ears and neck, her tongue hot against him, delighting in the taste, smell and feel of his skin…

  He was totally consumed by her in every way… up in flames… way beyond himself.

  They rolled around a little on the purple satin as things intensified, she wound her legs around his and her silky hair swept across him. She kissed his neck and chest and her tongue made it’s way across his stomach and down. His eyes closed as he felt her hot mouth close around his hardness, her tongue circling around and around, her hands around the length of him. A few more seconds of this oral ecstasy was all he could take…

  “Rose you’d better stop that….” he groaned and pulled her back up to him and rolled them both over kissing her some more.

  She was making some very heavy gasping noises against him as his fingers gently worked her up. She took hold of his hardness very tightly in her hot little hand, moving her hand on him as she pulled him towards her.

  “Harry come on, I’m dying for this, don’t make me wait any more.. please….”

  He moved directly over her, his eyes connecting with hers as his fingers touched just a little more until she was moaning quite loudly and then he finally entered her wet welcoming heat with a deep sigh.

  “You don’t know what you’re doing to me… really you don’t…” He was still for a moment, relishing the sensations of being inside her at last. He gazed at her face, her lips were slightly apart, her eyes were wide open, her pupils dilated, she looked high on him…

  Was he dreaming again or was this real? He had dreamt about her and imagined this so many times he had lost count. He broke away from his thoughts… This was reality and it far surpassed any dreams he had ever had…

  He kissed her gently all over her face and then more urgently, finally burying his tongue in her eager mouth. She wrapped her legs tightly round him, pulling him in deep, pushing herself up towards him at the same time. He moved against her slowly for a while trying to hold back, then just a little faster and harder, it felt so good, so heavenly, he wanted this to last forever… suddenly he was swamped by a mad desperation… he was losing himself, out of control and almost at the point of no return…

  “I’m not going to last very long at all…”

  “Neither am I, don’t stop Harry… I’m… right… THERE”

  Her insides suddenly pulsated around him rhythmically and she arched herself up towards him with a long moan. He could feel the heat coming off her in waves as he buried his head in her neck and a moment later he came inside her in a mind blowing superheated rush…

  They lay locked together in silence, breathing heavily, neither wanting to move apart. His heart was still pounding fast and his whole body on fire… He cast his eyes up and down the length of her, feasting on her naked beauty, her flushed cheeks and her mass of long dark hair. He brushed his fingertips up and down her face gently. He was about to explode with the love he felt for her.

  Almost immediately he felt himself stir again inside her, he moved up a little and caught her gaze… she’d felt it too and she smiled at him seductively flashing her eyes…

  “Harry… that was just something else…!” She was more than surprised at the connection they had … it usually took rather more than that to get her going over the top.

  He moved up on his elbows a little more so he could look directly into her eyes when he told her.

  “I love you Rose” he whispered as his heart skipped a beat with the joy of saying it out loud.

  “Whoa there boy… You do?” She was more than a little surprised at his rather sudden ardent admission….

  “I love you with everything I’ve got.” He hit her with it some more…

  “Harry! What are you saying?” She was swept away…

  He placed a finger on her lips.

  “Sshh, it’s okay. You don’t need to love me back just yet Rose. This has been in my heart for nearly three years. I needed to say it out loud to you. I can wait for you to catch up.” He gently kissed her perfect lips…

  As he began to love her again they were quickly lost in each other. This was going to be slower, sweeter and absolutely amazing, he thought as his raging hot imagination got to work. There was no desperate rush this time. This one was going to be all about discovering her.

  Their love session went on for some hours. It seemed they both had a very deep need of each other and neither wanted it to end. They really were quite exhausted when they finally gave in to sleep…

  A few things whirled through Rose’s mind as she lay warm and love-lazy in Harrison’s arms, in the final moments before she went to sleep …

  She had a nagging worrying feeling or two. She was concerned about her new client and the expectations being placed upon her. She knew Marcus wanted her. The looks he had given her were as plain as the nose on her face. At the time she had felt some interest in him. But she put it all in perspective now. It was only a little lust, pure and simple. He was a handsome rich man. There probably wasn’t a woman alive who wouldn’t feel that way about him to a degree.

  Her worry wasn’t so much about her feelings, but more about his. He may be even hotter on her tail, once he was driven mad with extra lust over the cold hard cash she was going to deliver personally into his fund. She felt sure that it would affect him that way. She would need to be very careful around him.

  She had Harry to consider now.

  Yes, Harry… He was supposed to be a flirtation… wasn’t he? A hot few sessions maybe. But she had already started to feel rather strongly for him. These past few hours had been far more than wonderful. It was like they were made for each other.

  She turned round slowly and gently to face him, gazing at his familiar face fast asleep so close to her
. She had not been prepared for such an intense reaction to him and it scared her a little. Her workmate had suddenly become so very much more than that. And he already loved her? For years? This revelation made everything so difficult and complicated. How was he going to take this DeVere business now, she wondered?

  Probably badly, very badly indeed…

  Chapter 10

  They left the hotel suite at 6am the next morning and traveled back together to their separate homes to change for work. They were back in the office just before 8am and trying to get into their normal routine.

  It was very difficult for the both of them sitting nonchalantly at their desks like normal as if nothing had happened. It was much too hard to be within an arm’s reach of someone they had made intense love to half the night and had an outrageous case of the hots for. The sneaky looks and occasional touch they could get in here and there were driving them both into a private love frenzy. The space around them was so alive with electricity Rose could feel the sparks shooting off all over her.

  She was scarcely able to read her emails as her mind wouldn’t let her focus on anything quite so mundane ….

  Until one caught her attention. She certainly focused in on this one.

  “I appreciate your obvious enthusiasm for whipping my assets into shape. I never expected such rapid growth so soon after placing myself in your hands. I can barely wait to see how you perform over the next few days. – Marcus (Actually – I’m not sure I want you to hit the 3% for me, can you make it 2.9%?)”

  She couldn’t help but snigger at his innuendo laden remarks, despite herself.

  “What’s up Ro…” Harrison asked, looking at her closely. “What’s so funny?”

  “Oh nothing much. Just thinking about DeVere and imagining his expression when he saw that fund increase! I’m still waiting for him to reply…” Oh dear, she was lying to him already…
