Just like honey

A new scene from my forbidden office romance AU – Sybil and Tom are on opposite sides of a deal team in the City of London, and if anyone knew they were meeting outside work they would be fired and lose their reputations for good.  But somehow, they can’t stay away from each other… rated M.

The headrush of her presence was stronger than ever, and he felt the blood racing in his ears as he tightened his arms around her. She pressed herself hard against him, pushing her tongue into his mouth, responding eagerly to his touch. Her fingers tracing patterns on the back of his neck sent shivers up and down his spine. The scent of her, the feel of her, so familiar and yet so mysterious, filled his senses to overflowing.

When their kiss broke at last, he couldn’t let go of her. Leaning her back against the doorframe, thoughts were spinning through his mind… thoughts of taking care of her, sharing a home with her, marrying her. The strongest emotion he felt for her in that moment wasn’t lust, desire, passion. It was love.

Later, when he reflected on it, he realised that there, in that moment, was his point of no return. He knew he couldn’t stop himself, didn’t even want to. The risk of telling the truth was no worse than the agony of keeping his feelings to himself for a minute longer.

He closed his eyes and pressed his lips to the top of her head, knowing that he was standing on a precipice. About to fall over the edge, into unknown territory.

on opposite sides of a deal team in the City of London, and if anyone
knew they were meeting outside work they would be fired and lose their

“Sybil – what are you doing later on? Can I…”

She was twisting
her hair back into place behind her head. “No, don’t think so – I’m way
behind on the fund setups, Sir Anthony is on my case about it. I’m going
to be at the office till late.”

Already she was moving away from
him, ready to return to that life. The life of the City – the life of
work, money, deadlines. The life on the surface, the life he no longer
seemed to care much about, compared to what he had found with her.

“Sure…” Leave it Tom, leave it. Let her go.

He
turned away from her, adjusting his tie, and felt her come up behind
him, press herself against his back, slide her arms around his waist.

Turning
towards her, he felt her breasts against his chest, her hips rolling
against his. Her arms wove around his neck as she kissed him, a kiss
that could have lingered, dragging them both back into his bed again, if
they had let it.

He was the one to pull away this time. “I’ve got to go.”

One more kiss, and they went their separate ways outside his front door.

He
turned back to look at her – her smile as she freshened up her
lipstick, the curve of her hips, the click of her high heels. He felt
his heart lift into his throat as he watched her walk away from him.
