Chapter 179: Not So Fast
(JERICHO)
"Trust me, Miles is preoccupied with what happened today. I’m sure he will want to strike back at the Sharks’ Clan for putting his son in danger. He won’t be thinking of us now. I guess Sasha already has a plan of retaliation formed together with Miles. We are probably the last thing in their minds now."
"Okay." He exhales shakily. "You’re probably right."
"I know I am." I reach out and touch his cheek. I’m glad when he doesn’t wince or move away. "Come to my room tonight."
Uneasiness shifts through him. I can tell from the way his eyes flicker. "I don’t think that’s a good idea. It’s too risky. This was already a mistake."
"Why?" I frown. "We are adults, Wesley. We can have sex if we want. I don’t think that will interfere with your job in any way."
"You and I both know that Miles won’t see it like that. If he catches me sleeping with you, I’m sure that he will fire me."
I snicker. "Then I’ll just hire you again."
He lets out a gruff laugh. "As what? I’m a manny, not a concubine."
"Listen, Wesley. You aren’t going anywhere." I move closer to him and I’m thrilled when his breathing picks up. "No one is going to know what we are up to except us. We just need to be really careful." I say, slipping one hand around him and he leans into me, what excites the hell out of me. The fact that he is accepting my comfort makes my insides to goo. That’s a sign that he still wants me even though he is nervous. He just needs a little more coaxing so that I can sleep with him again. "Please come to my room tonight, Wes. I need more of you."
"I shouldn’t." he shakes his head.
