He glanced forward and saw Liliya settling into her own chair. She smiled at him, and he returned it.
“Sleep well, Liliya.”
“Goodnight, Ben.”
Closing his eyes, he realized he felt comforted by the woman’s presence and not just from a security standpoint. He felt his face warm up and tried to put it out of his mind. Tomorrow would be a busy day.
“From the examples we showed you today, you can see how Huen Kang Development Group is the leader in creating the grandest inspirational commercial and residential architecture. We stand above all others!”
The man delivering this pitch to Ben and the Klein Group was dressed immaculately in a very expensive and tailored suit. He practically gleamed with wealth, success, and power, but Ben was feeling a little frustrated by the excess glam and glitz the presentation had been surrounded by.
They were sitting in the penthouse meeting room of the company’s headquarters, the jewel in their crown, the salesman insisted.
The three examples they’d been shown earlier in the day had façades that were lovely to look at, but they’d never looked past the veneer. That set Ben’s nerves on edge. He wasn’t sure how Louis would run this interview, so he’d tried to hold his tongue. So far, neither Louis nor Dan had interfered with the salesman’s monologue, except for requesting a closer look at the infrastructure of the buildings they’d visited, but they’d allowed themselves to be dissuaded! Ben’s patience was coming to an end.
He glanced around the room, and a pretty woman smiled back at him everywhere he looked. There had to be close to a dozen of them, but he wasn’t sure of their function in the business if not to act as a distraction. They were all truly lovely, but it was a little unnerving to be the focus of their undivided attention.
He saw Louis and Dan still had their poker faces on, Mark was doing his best to emulate them, but Ed was equally distracted by the extra ladies. He caught the man’s eye and saw a flash of embarrassment before he shared a smile with the younger man to let him know it was cool. Ed grinned back at him.
He took a deep breath and prepared to put the breaks on the pitch as he’d had enough.
A sharp knock on the door stopped him, and he caught a frown from the polished gentleman who nodded to the eye candy closest to the door. She opened it, and another lovely woman whispered something to the one inside. She turned to face the group. “There is a visitor to see Mr. Shepherd.”
Ben’s eyebrows rose in surprise as Tatiana moved into view in the hall with a redhead at her side.
He was on his feet and moving to the door before the salesman could make a peep as his eyes locked on the smiling features of Trish. He met her in the hallway. Liliya stepped out of the room behind him and shared some signals with Tatiana, who walked down the hall toward the elevators. Evelyn slipped by to take position down the aisle in the opposite direction.
“What’s happened? Is everything alright?” he immediately gasped.
She patted his chest to calm him. “Everything is fine! I was in the neighborhood and have some papers you need to sign.”
Ben blinked at her. “In the neighborhood?” he said incredulously. His mind spun at the distance she’d traveled to be in the neighborhood, then he remembered. “Oh! Shit! I forgot you said you were interviewing marketing companies.” When Trish smiled and nodded, then he frowned again. “You could have flown with us if our trips were going to be to the same places.”
“This is the only destination that matched, and I’m on a different schedule than you. It’s fine.” She looked around. “Is there someplace we can go to get some privacy?” She held up the dossier of papers for Ben to sign.
A junior exec in a less expensive suit stood by and looked at Ben questioningly.
“I need a room to sign some papers,” Ben said. The man glanced to the open door of the conference room, but Ben shook his head. “I need privacy.”
Looking a little flustered, the junior produced a key he used to open a door next to the conference room and gestured for them to enter. Trish led the way, and Ben stepped in, nodded to the man, and closed the door behind them.
Turning to face the room, he was surprised to see it was just a narrow closet with tall shelves to his left and a low row of cabinets with a countertop running along the wall shared by the conference room. The counter made an excellent surface to sign the paperwork, so Ben quickly completed that for her. He noted quite a few from Walter involving the properties, specifically Beth’s old home. This was likely to protect him from the legal nightmare of the criminal case the property was currently linked with.
When he was done, he faced Trish, and his jaw dropped as her yoga pants and panties were down at her ankles, and she was rubbing her pussy in little circles with a grin on her face.
“What are you doing?” he gasped.
“You mentioned we could have shared a flight, which made me think about our flight to Germany and how hot the sex was. We’re not going to see each other for at least a week, so we need to take this opportunity for a quickie!” she panted.
Ben stared at her incredulously once more. “We’re in a-a supply closet of a high-rise in Hong Kong!” he said.
“That just makes it extra hot!” Trish dropped to her knees before Ben and quickly unbuttoned and unzipped his pants. She tugged his clothes down and began running her tongue over his cock.
“Fuck!” Ben gasped.
Trish grinned up at him and took his swelling member into her mouth. She wasn’t going for finesse as speed was more important right now. As he wasn’t erect yet, she managed to get most of him into her mouth and slipping down her throat.
“Oh fuck, Trish! We-we shouldn’t be doing this!” he said with a strained voice as she worked her magic on him. He was quickly becoming too hard for her to easily push into her throat.
With a satisfied smile, she pulled his rigid member from her mouth and licked the head, causing him to jolt. The intensity of his gaze sent tingles down her spine. She’d really charged him up.
Ben reached down and lifted her to her feet. Then he leaned her over the countertop as she gasped at the rough need in his grip.
When the thick head of his cock pressed against her wet opening, she cried out in surprise at how hot it felt against her. Then he was sliding it into her, gradually but with undeniable strength. He’d withdraw and inch, then reverse and slide in two.
“FUCK! Ben, you feel so fucking THICK!” she gasped as she reached back to pull at his body. She wanted him to drive that beast deep inside her, but he enjoyed making her squirm with need. She couldn’t get mad at him as she knew he’d give her what she craved, eventually.
She began thrusting back, pushing against the wall before her as Ben gripped her hips.
“Trish, that feels so good, but we have to finish quick,” he said, returning to his senses.
She looked back at him over her shoulder. “I’ve been trying to get you to move faster, but you controlled the speed! Fuck me, dammit!” She was grinning, so he knew she wasn’t really upset.
Ben drew his cock out to the head and then slammed himself deep.
“FUCK! YES!”

Liliya was standing outside the door to the closet and was the first to hear the beginning of Ben and Trish’s interlude. She immediately locked down her expression and casually scanned the faces of the junior executive and the pretty attendant waiting in the hall. Neither appeared to have noticed so far.
She glanced down the hall to see Evelyn’s eyes turn in her direction. She passed a hand signal and watched the woman’s blue eyes widen. The Sergeant moved closer and ducked into the washroom across the hall to return moments later with a nod for her. The woman returned to her position down the aisle.
The Russian blonde smiled as Evelyn had thought ahead perfectly. Now she knew she could direct Ben to the washroom without having to pre-inspect it. She wished Tatiana worked with her so smoothly.
There was a distinct thump from the other side of the door, and this time the junior exec and the lovely woman next to him heard it.
The young man went toward the door, but Liliya stepped sideways to block his access. He frowned, but she held his eye and just shook her head. Her steady gaze intimidated the man, so he stepped back.
Liliya hoped Ben finished up quickly.

“Oh fuck! Fuck! Fuck! YES! Ben! Fuck me harder!” Trish moaned as Ben stroked faster.
He was in heaven as well and began to pound her ass with his body, oblivious of the steady thump of the cabinet against the wall. He seemed unaware that it wasn’t bolted down, and Trish loved his attention so much she ignored the movement in the wall she was bracing her hands against.
“You feel so good!” Ben moaned as his hips accelerated again.
‘YES! FUCK, YES!” Trish cried.

Ed was sitting closest to the door and began to hear sounds through the wall. It’d started with a steady but quiet thumping, but now the pace seemed to be increasing. He wondered what mechanical system might be nearby to bleed its noise into the room. He knew they were on the top floor, so there were many things it could be, from the air conditioners, pumps, and diesel power generators.
When a muted but distinctly female voice cried out in passion, Ed recognized that sound immediately. His last evening with Rachel suddenly popped into his mind, and he felt a familiar tingle begin down below.
He quickly scanned the room to ensure no one was looking his way as he adjusted himself in his pants. Once the pressure was relieved, he looked up to see a knowing smile on one of the ladies standing by the door.
His face reddened as he directed his gaze elsewhere.
He hoped whoever was making those sexy sounds finished soon as his dress pants were becoming entirely too tight.
