“If this meetin’ wasn’t so important to you, I’d be on my knees, fuckin’ you with my tongue so deep,

“so fuckin’ filthy,

“you’d be shovin’ a ring down my throat.” His eyes crawl back to mine.

I slide my panties on.

“Rain check with Pussy-drunk Drew?”

“With Allison-drunk Drew,” he corrects.

“Yeah? Obsessed?”

He lifts his chin with a smirk.

“Two-four-seven-three-six-five.”

“Cute.”

He tosses me my bra.

“Now get dressed faster.

“You got my mouth waterin’.”

For the last ten minutes, Andrew lays out the most important details, step by step.

How Raymond will convince the board,

how to counter it.

“Listen,

“They see fast money.

“They’re lookin’ for immediate payoff.

“You gotta be thinkin’ five years ahead.”

“Type in your password.”

I freeze. A moment of hesitation.

Then I breathe out and lean over him,

typing it in.
