in the office?”
Reddick finished wiping away the rain from his chest. He imagined Regina reaching over and helping him with the task. He wanted her to see him dripping like that again, but next time from the exertion of them pleasuring one another.
“I have a small flashlight in my purse. There is one on our phones. There’s one under the sink in the bathroom upstairs, and there might be one down in the basement by the furnace. We have a whole shelf of candles in the kitchen. Most of them are small scented votive candles. Serena bought a few cases, as she likes to light them to make the office smell good,” Regina informed him.
“That sounds like a good stash.” The lights flickered again as he spoke. He tossed the wad of damp paper to wels in the trash by the door.
“I know you love those shoes, but do you think you might be more comfortable taking them off? We’re going to be here all night.” He looked down her long legs at her feet and bit his bottom lip.
“I guess, but I don't want to walk around barefoot, and the other option is those pink marabou slippers. You really think we’ll be here all night?”
“We don't have a choice. I think the storm is going to get worse in a few hours. We have no idea how bad the damage is in the area. We know how bad it is here in the parking lot from that tree falling down. We’re going to have to wait until the sun comes up to make sure it’s safe for us to get out of here.
“You should probably send out that email telling everyone that we’ll be closed, at least in the morning. Tell our sales teams they should do what they can to work from home tomorrow. I’ll shoot Michelangelo and Serena an email letting them know what happened so they can try to make arrangements for a tree service to come out here.” Reddick started to walk out the door before Regina could say anything, so she just followed him upstairs.
REGINA AND REDDICK were at their desks, finishing up their emails, when the lights flickered on and off several times. They looked over at each other. Then they flickered off.
The office went dark. The only light came from the glow of their laptop screens. They looked over at each ot her again.
“Close your laptop and grab your phone.” Reddick left his laptop open and turned on his phone and pointed the light in her direction.
Regina did as he said. She put her phone in the pocket of his blazer and stood up. She kept her hand in the other pocket to help keep the front of the coat closed. She carefully followed the light over to his desk.
“Did you get the email out to the staff?” Reddick asked her.
“Yes, I was just checking my email. Did you get the message off to Serena and Michelangelo? If not, I can text them.” Regina stopped in front of his desk.
“Yeah, I got it off to them.”
“Now what?” she asked him.
“I’m going to close my laptop. I want to make sure we use our devices sparingly in case we need them. We should turn our phones off to keep the charge. We can turn them on if we need them. I just saw that there are several power outages in every county along the coast. They said not to expect it to come back on tonight.”
“Oh, great.” She huffed and sat on the edge of his desk and crossed her legs. Her right red heel dangled very close to his crotch.
He sucked in a deep breath and tried to blow it out nice and slow. The glow of his phone cast a flatte ring light, illuminating her legs. Her legs were so close to him, and too close together. He wanted to push all the items from his desk and spread them so he could bury his face where her legs met in the middle.
He cautiously placed a hand on her lower thigh. He wasn't sure what scared him more—that she would push off his hand or that he couldn’t keep himself from pulling her onto his lap.
Regina shivered at his touch. He wanted to do more than rest his hand on her knee. She rubbed her legs together a little, teasing him more than she could possibly
