"Are you not going to take those off?" she asked as she looked at his boxers.

"In time. First, I think I'll have some fun,” he replied and with that, he lowered himself onto his knees so he was in between her legs.

Mia had been waiting for this moment for so long that she lost all of her focus in that moment as she focused only on Sage.

She could no longer hear the rattling of bottles that she could hear echoing from the bar earlier. She could also no longer hear the sound of laughter and music. All she could hear was the sound of her heart beating in her ears and her breathing as it quickened. Her body trembled under Sage’s touch, her hands gripped the side of the desk, and as soon as Sage had his mouth on her she soon succumbed to the sensation and completely let go.

Sage wanted her and he could no longer keep himself waiting and so within seconds he had her up and bent over the desk, legs apart, waiting. He removed his boxers, quickly grabbed a condom from his discarded jeans, tore through the wrapping and positioned himself behind her. He moved quickly and she gasped in shock as he proceeded to thrust hard and deep in her, grabbing at her waist. He leaned over her, moving his one hand to the back of her head so he could grab a handful of her hair and tug her head back. He bent forward and bit her neck. She moaned, her body completely overwhelmed with pleasure and ecstasy. Sage trailed his hand down her spine as he straightened up and spanked her ass before he finally gave in, soon followed by Mia.

Sage collapsed in a sweaty mess on top of their pile of clothes, needing a moment to catch his breath which he had almost lost while Mia stayed face down on the desk as she too caught her breath.

“Wow,” she said.

Sage laughed. “Yes, ‘wow’ does seem to fit perfectly.”

“That was even better than what I had imagined.”

“I could not agree more. I’m literally breathless,” Sage said as his breathing had still not gone back to normal.

“Do you think anyone has noticed our absence?” she asked.

“I think anyone who hasn’t would be completely clueless,” he replied.

Mia chuckled.

Slowly they started putting their clothes back on and once they had both managed to get their breathing back to normal, put back everything they had moved, walked out of the office and back into the bar.

Sage knew instantly that having sex with Mia had been a bad idea. It had been good in the moment but he shouldn't have allowed himself to get carried away. He had been tasked with taking care of her, to protect her at all costs. He definitely had not been placed with her to fuck her, just like he had told her a couple of nights before. She had just been way too alluring and seductive for him to resist. He couldn’t deny that the sex had been amazing, possibly the best sex he had ever had, but it still didn’t make up for the fact that he knew it had been wrong. He needed to make sure he kept his distance. He couldn’t risk it happening again although he knew he secretly wouldn’t mind if it did happen again.

Without knowing where they would be staying while they were in Florida, Sage ordered a taxi, leaving his bike at the bar since they had both been drinking, and decided that he and Mia would stay at a hotel for the night until they made living arrangements the next day. He made sure that this time they would get separate rooms. He couldn't risk anything else happening that night. He had already crossed the line.

But he couldn’t stop himself from playing it over and over again in his head when he got in his room. The way her body had felt and reacted to his touch had been a thrill for him. She just wanted to please him and he loved that. He couldn’t stop thinking about her soft lips, and how smooth her skin felt beneath his hands. He went to bed that night thinking of their bodies connecting over and over again.

Mia could tell that Sage had almost immediately drawn back from her after their moment in the back office. Once they had left the office, Sage went to the bar for another drink and proceeded to act as though nothing had happened. She did not regret it happening though as she had been waiting for it for so long but she had to put that aside because she had no idea where Sage and herself would be staying in Florida. They could not live out of a hotel during their stay as who knew how long they’d be in Florida for.

She decided to take a walk to a cafe close to the hotel so she could connect her phone to the internet and start searching for houses in the area. She would look into a two-bedroom place, nothing too pricey although she began to wonder just how they would pay for a place considering neither of them had much to their names.

It was in the morning just after she had bookmarked a few houses when she received a text message from her banking account that showed a rather large lump sum had been deposited into her account. Shocked, Mia looked into the details of the transfer; it had come from Fiona. Mia decided to give Fiona a call to double-check that there hadn't been a mix-up. She had never had that much money in her account before and she honestly didn't know how to respond to it.

It was on the third ring that Fiona picked up.

"Hello?" Fiona asked through the phone.

“Hi, Fiona, it's Mia,” she said.

“Oh, Mia, hello. I really should save your number into my phone but I keep getting distracted," Fiona said with a slight laugh.

"Haha, I'm sure you'll get around to it,” Mia said.

"I will indeed. Well, I'm assuming there is a reason you called. Has something happened?" she asked.

"Oh no, nothing has happened. I just wanted to verify an amount that got transferred to my account. It’s a rather huge amount of money and I just wanted to make sure there hasn't been a mix up somewhere,” Mia said.

"You didn't expect me to send you and Sage to Florida without sorting you both out, did you? You'll need money to live off of and it just so happens that the Screaming Demons has recently come into a lot of it thanks to the Omens,” Fiona said.

“Oh, so the money is for myself and Sage to live off?" Mia asked, just wanting to make sure she had gotten the information correct.
