Chapter 34 An Office Affair

Book:Gamble With My Heart Published:2024-5-1

Opportunities don’t happen, you create them. Or in this case a business deal. I have just bought a new company over and I need to fly out to go sign the deal. Not just anywhere but to Bora Bora. Since Skye said yes to dinner with my dad, she might say yes to this because after all it is taking the place of dinner now.
Damon ~”Joelle, please ask Skye to come see me.”
Joelle ~”Sure Mr Chase.”
Now I need to put my best game face on, she must not even want to say no.
Skye knocks on the door.
Damon ~”Come in.”
Skye ~”Mr Chase you wanted to see me?”
Damon ~”Yes please come sit down Skye.”
Skye ~”What is the matter?”
Damon ~”You know we were supposed to go to my father for dinner on Friday?”
Skye ~”Yes and I said it is fine, I will go.”
Damon ~”Well we are going to have to cancel, something else came up.”
Skye ~”I must say I am relieved, I was kind of worried about meeting your father.”
Damon ~”I need to go away for business, I, I was wondering if you would want to come with me.”
Skye ~”With you? Where to?”
Damon ~”Bora Bora, I need to go sign the deal with Stephenson.”
Skye ~”You got to be shitting me. You want me to come with you to Bora Bora?”
Damon ~”Yes, just for business of course, I mean you need to check if all the numbers are in order.”
Skye ~”I don’t think I can. I…”
Damon ~”It is just as work colleagues. I promise, nothing else, no funny business.”
Skye ~”Oh my god. Of course I will. It is not every day that a girl can go to Bora Bora!”
Damon ~”Perfect. We leave tomorrow morning. I will pick you up at seven.”
Skye ~”Oh my fuck. I am going to Bora Bora. Fuck I can’t believe it. I am so damn excited!”
Damon ~”Why don’t you go home to pack, we will be there for four days.”
Skye ~”Thank you Mr Chase. I will see you tomorrow morning. Oh my god I can’t wait. We are going to Bora Bora.”
Damon ~”I can’t wait either. I will see you in the morning Skye.”
The last time I saw Skye so excited was when we went down to my place at the coast. She needs this, we need this, and our relationship needs this break. I know I said it is only business but I am hoping it will be more.
I think I am going to take a leap here, I want this to be a ‘vacation’ she is never going to forget.
I pick up and dial Tajsa’s number.
Tajsa ~”Hey Damon.”
Damon ~”Please will you come to my office?”
Ten minutes later Tajsa is knocking on my door.
Damon ~”Come in Tajsa.”
Tajsa ~”Hi Mr Chase.”
Damon ~”Hi Tajsa, please come sit down. I need your help.”
Tajsa ~”What can I help you with?”
Damon ~”Well I asked Skye to come with me to close the Stephenson deal.”
Tajsa ~”You taking her to Bora Bora, like only one of the most romantic places in the world?”
Damon ~”I need your help to pick out a few things for me. I want to take her on a romantic dinner.”
Tajsa ~”I am guessing she does not know your real intention with this trip.”
Damon ~”You think she would have ever said yes?”
Tajsa ~”So what are we picking out?”
I spin my laptop around for her to see of what I all had in mind. If I had to do this alone, I would have definitely made a mess up of it.
Tajsa ~”I see you are catching on fast.”
Damon ~”What do you think?”
Tajsa ~”I like the bottom left one, I think it will look good on her.”
Damon ~”And this?”
Tajsa ~”It will look good with that.”
Damon ~”Perfect, now do that thing you do to get it ready, I will pick it up in an hour.”
Tajsa ~”That thing that I do, you make me sound like a witch with a silver wand.”
Damon ~”All you need is the wicked laugh.”
Tajsa ~”I only bring that out after dark.”
Damon ~”Talking about after dark, what is happening with you and Brody?”
Tajsa ~”Nothing why?”
Damon ~”You might be the witch but I am the one that can read minds.”
Tajsa ~”Oh and what is it that you are reading?”
Damon ~”Brody never cancels coffee, especially after he were out with you the night before.”
Tajsa ~”He wants us to try again.”
Damon ~”What is it, like the fifth time?”
Tajsa ~”I did not know you were keeping count. What else are you counting?”
Damon ~”I just don’t want you to get hurt AGAIN. Especially with what happened between us.”
Tajsa ~”I got my big girl panties on, I won’t get hurt. But this thing with Skye, are you sure you want to do it? You are fast running into the same pattern as me and Brody.”
Damon ~”I love her and I know in the deepest of me that she still loves me. She just needs a push in the right direction. I do not want to lose her to Mason.”
Tajsa ~”If that happens, I will personally cut his shit off for him.”
Tajsa ~”I will go sort this out for you. If I do not catch up with you before you leave, I hope you have a great trip and good luck with Skye.”
Damon ~”Thanks Tajsa, I don’t know what I would do without you.”
Tajsa ~”Lose your marbles.”
After Tajsa leaves, I quickly finalise all our arrangements for the weekend. An hour later I am ready to go. I grab the contracts of my desk and head out the door.
Damon ~”Joelle, if there is anything urgent please give me a call. Otherwise I will see you next week.”
Joelle ~”Sure Mr Chase, hope you have a good trip.”
Damon ~”Thank you Joelle.”
I make my way down to the basement. First I need to go pick up the things for Skye and then go drop Bella at Maggie. But then I remember something. I take my phone and dial the number
Skye ~”Hey Damon. Is something wrong?”
Damon ~”Hey Skye. I just remembered about Max. Is he going to be okay to leave him with Mason?”
Skye ~”Mason said that he will manage. Thanks for asking though.”
Damon ~”Not a problem. I will see you tomorrow then.”
Skye ~”See you tomorrow Damon.”
I get all my stops done and head my way to home. I am so damn excited, I am so looking forward to tomorrow. My ass is so much that I can barely sleep the night.
Next morning I am up early, packing the car and having a quick shower and change.
Next up, pick up Skye. I make the half hour drive to Amber’s old place. I have absolutely no idea how I am going to handle Mason. I have not spoken to the asshole since he came out of hospital, yes he is a damn asshole for shacking up with my girl. I mean what type of friend even does something like that. Yes I know he just came through a horrible thing but still she is my girl.
I get to Skye’s just as she opens the door.
Damon ~”Hey Skye.”
Skye ~”Hey Damon. I was just about to bring my suitcases out.”
Damon ~”Wait let me grab them for you.”
She shows me in and yes there sits the damn asshole spread all other the couch like a fucking owns the place. If it was not that I felt sorry for him, I would have whacked the damn thing.
Mason ~”Hey Damon.”
Damon ~”Mason. How is it going?”
Mason ~”Great. Getting better everyday.”
Sure you are you damn idiot. I would also get better if I had this gorgeous woman around at your beck and call.
Damon ~”Sure Skye is a great help.”
Mason ~”Oh yes, she is looking well after me.”
I wonder which damn parts you jerk. Oh how I want to break your other arm right now.
Damon ~”Sure you going to manage fine while she is away.”
Mason ~”Going to be difficult but I am sure I will.”
Oh my god, would swear he is cripple. Can he even take his own ass to the bathroom?
Damon ~”Well we better be going. We will send you some pictures.”
The hell I am definitely going to rub it in that smug face of you that I am with her.
Skye ~”Cheers Mason, I will phone to check in on you.”
The last time I checked he is a grown man, he has a damn mother that can do that.
After loading her like one too many suitcases in the car, we are ready to go.
Damon ~”Do you want to drive?”
Skye ~”Hell yes, this is my favorite one of all three of them.”
I toss the keys on over to her.
Damon ~”All yours my speed monkey.”
Skye ~”Oh am I a monkey now?”
Damon ~”I can call you an energizer bunny.”
Skye ~”I like being a bunny, nice and fluffy.”
Damon ~”Well my bunny, let’s get going then.”
She screeches the tyres as she pulls off in a roar. I still cannot get over how much of a speed freak she is. A woman after my heart, soft and gentle but a wild one at heart.
We get to the airport where we check in and go take a seat in the airport lounge while waiting for our flight. It does not take long before we are boarding the plane. We resitting in first class.
Skye ~”My holy shit this is nice.”
Damon ~”Are you so going to post this on Instagram?”
Skye ~”You bet your sweet ass I am.”
I watch the shock on her face as she realizes what she just said.
Skye ~”Oh fuck, I just said my boss has a sweet ass.”
She gasps.
Skye ~”Oh fuck I just said fuck in front my boss.”
Damon ~”Don’t worry your little head so much, we are friends after all. You can even smack my sweet ass if you want.”
Skye ~”Your sweet ass is taking a fat chance now.”
Damon ~”You can’t blame a man for trying.”
She bursts out laughing.
Skye ~”So are we working for all four days?”
Damon ~”Yes, every single minute of it.”
Skye ~”Ah that sucks. I checked all the pictures on the net, it looks amazing.”
Damon ~”You are so gullible. If I told you it is pissing pigs you would believe me.”
Skye ~”Are you saying I am stupid?”
Damon ~’No I am only hinting that you might be dense.”
Skye ~”I will take it from where it comes from.”
Damon ~”Are you saying I am dense now?”
Skye ~”I am just hinting at the obvious.”
Damon ~”Mrs Chase, if I was not such a gentleman I would have pulled you across my lap and spank you.”
Skye ~”Mr Chase, I think we have been declared as divorced.”
Damon ~”Damn there I thought I could take advantage and get them to put us in one room.”
Skye ~”Hahaha, you are really trying your luck there.”
Damon ~”Oh it has nothing to do with luck, it is about taking advantage.”
Skye ~”You reckon you can take advantage of me?”
Damon ~”I don’t reckon, I know I can.”
Skye ~”Mr Chase, do you want to start an office romance now?”
Damon ~”And what if I say yes.”
Skye ~”I’d say I am not your assistant, you have a thing for assistants after all.”
We both burst out laughing.
The rest of the flight is great, I have not had such good time with her in a while. What she does not know is that she thinks I might be joking but I am so damn serious about it.
After what really seemed like forever, we are finally landing at the airport. Then we off to the resort. I watch her as her jaw drops.
Skye ~”Oh my god! This is amazing. I have never ever seen such a beautiful place in my life.”
Damon ~”It is breath-taking, it is so beautiful here.”
Almost, no, just like you. Fuck I wish I could say that to her and not just in my dense head.
We book into the resort and are shown to our rooms.
Damon ~”You wane meet here in twenty? We can go to the bar for cocktails? I will even get them to put too much Bacardi for you.”
Skye ~”Oh hell yes! Are we going to go to the beach? I want to put my new bikini on.”
Damon ~”Fuck you can walk naked if you want. I will take you anywhere you want to go.”
Skye ~”Awesome, I will see you just now again.”
Our rooms or like they call them villas, are next to each other. I do not even bother to unpack my suitcase, I just want to get out there and start this long weekend with her.
Twenty minutes later she comes out of her room.
Damon ~”I am impressed, you are on time.”
Skye ~”I am impressed that you actually are.”
Damon ~”What do you think of your room?”
Skye ~”Oh my shit! It is awesome, I feel like a queen in there. Fuck I am scared to even touch anything.”
Damon ~”Hahaha. Just don’t scale the towels when you go.”
Skye ~”Hey that was an accident, I did not know it was the beach house’s towel.”
Damon ~”Yes, keep telling yourself that.”
After first getting lost, we finally find the bar.
Skye ~”I think I will stop saying it now but oh my god, look at this view.”
Damon ~”I somehow think that this won’t be the last time.”
Skye ~”Oh I was so going to smack you but I do not want to mess up my manicure.”
Damon ~”That is your nails again?”
Skye ~”Yes I am impressed, you do listen sometimes.”
Damon ~”I always listen to you, I am just selective to what I want to remember.”
Skye ~”I will remember that next time you speak.”
Damon ~”So what do we start with?”
Skye ~”Sex on the beach?”
Damon ~”What about a slippery nipple first?”
Skye ~”No we definitely have to start with a blowjob.”
Damon ~”I would not mind that at all.”
Skye ~”Hahaha that is the worst, nice try though.”
Damon ~”Then I will just have to settle for an orgasm.”
Skye ~”Good luck in getting that one yourself.”
Damon ~”Damn I have just been whipped.”
Skye ~”I don’t see whipping on here but I am sure we can sneak it in with the foreplay.”
Damon ~”Can we throw some handcuffs in there too?”
Skye ~”Hahaha that old lady is looking at as funny.”
Damon ~”If I was into friends with benefits then I would give her something to look at funny.”
Skye ~”But I thought we were having an office romance.”
Damon ~”Damn that is even better. So what do we say we start fooling around a bit? A slippery nipple for you then?”
Skye ~”Oh lay it down on me baby.”
Oh if we were alone in my room now, I will definitely be laying something down on her. To be more specific it would be laying deep inside of her. Damn I need to get my head out of the gutter.
Skye ~”What are you thinking about with that smirk on your face Mr Chase?”
Damon ~”Would you not like to know ex Mrs Chase?”
Skye ~”Hahaha you can’t leave a sentence hanging like that.”
Damon ~”I can show you something else that is hanging.”
Skye ~”Oh really, like what?”
Damon ~”That lampshade.”
Skye ~”Oh my god you are terrible.”
Damon ~”That old lady is going to tell us to get a room soon.”
Skye ~”We will just tell her we like to be exhibitionists, she can always watch.”
Damon ~”Mmm, now I like the sound of that.”
We have a couple of cocktails before we head off to the beach. With a beer in each hand, we sit down on the white sand. I am well on my way to getting tipsy and by the level of her giggles, I know that she is too. I so desperately want to kiss her, just taste her lips for a few minutes. Fuck I want her so bad.
Skye ~”God this is so beautiful.”
Damon ~”I thought you were going to stop saying that.”
Skye ~”Hahaha you getting clever with me now?”
Damon ~”I can show you what getting clever is?”
Skye ~”Oh please show me.”
Damon ~”Do you really want me to show?”
Skye ~”I dare you.”
I talk her beer out of her hands, she looks at me puzzled. Before she can even make the connection, my lips are connecting with hers. Her body stiffens and she gasps.
Skye ~”Damon.”
My lips rub against hers, I nibble and bite at her bottom lip. I am kissing her soft and slow, my lips just touching and tasting hers. I can taste the beer on her lips as I run my tongue over them. I start kissing her harder, my tongue has still not entered her mouth. I so want to take all of it but not just yet.
Damon ~”Are you going to dare me again?”
Skye ~”I… uhm… I think that was an office affair.”
Damon ~”Hahaha I guess you not going to dare me again.”
