Diana picked up a scent of musky perfume. She found herself wondering exactly which Adrianna, Inc. garments Adrianna wore under her prim suit.
“Is it too soon to ask how your work is going?” Adrianna inquired easily.
Diana was both unsettled and slightly aroused by her nearness. “No, actually. It’s going quite well. I think the guys are catching on about what appeals to women.”
“I’m sure you’re explaining to them that each woman is her own animal, with her own unique set of urges and desires.”
“Yes,” she said.
A part of Diana was tempted to ask if Adrianna still wanted to see her lingerie. She found herself wondering what it might feel like to kiss another woman, to press against a woman’s curves, to rake her tongue over a woman’s nipple.
Since when are you so curious about those things? she couldn’t help asking herself.
If she was honest, it had started last night, at the show, with Marc. It had been wholly erotic to find herself aroused by the same things that aroused a man—and to share it with him without feeling shy or confused.
But if she was completely honest, any vision she might form of herself getting intimate with Adrianna didn’t feel complete—or even all that appealing—without Marc involved. It was just like last night in the limo. Being with Dan and Craig had been like being with Marc, just in another way. She’d understood that it would excite him and she’d wanted that more than anything. If Marc were here and if he wanted her to experiment with Adrianna, she thought she probably would. In fact, she probably wouldn’t be able to resist. But Marc wasn’t here. And that made her decision easy.
“Speaking of the catalog,” Diana said, smiling politely up at her boss, “I should probably get back to work with the guys. Unless there was anything else you wished to discuss.”
Adrianna gave an acceptant and respectful smile. Her eyes seemed to say they both understood that Diana was turning her down, but that it was okay. “No, nothing else,” the other woman said. “I just wanted to get to know you a bit better, and make sure you know that we’re glad you’re here with us.”
Diana returned the smile. “I’m truly glad to be here.”
Adrianna walked with her to the door, and as Diana placed her hand on the doorknob, Adrianna took a step closer, as close as she’d stood at the window. “Perhaps we’ll have the opportunity to get together socially before you return to Baltimore.”
Perhaps,” Diana said, curious if socially meant sexually —and did she want that? Did Marc ? She couldn’t help wondering just how far she was willing to take her overwhelming desire to please and excite him in whatever way she could.
Chapter Five
“How’s your pussy?” Marc asked when she stepped into the conference room to find him alone there.
The question made her flinch. “Why?” Did he somehow know what had just transpired in Adrianna’s office?
He laughed, looking confused. “Because you said it was sore this morning and I was hoping it was feeling better.”
She looked around the room. “Where are the other guys?”
“Brainstorming in the break room. They like a change of scenery. I can go get them if you’re ready to get back to work. By the way, what did, uh, Adrianna want?”
She felt breathless. “That’s why I wondered if we were alone. You won’t believe what just happened to me.”
He cocked a small smile in her direction. “Did Adrianna try to seduce you in her office?”
Diana gasped, then shut the conference room door to ensure their privacy. “How did you know?”
He shrugged. “I know Adrianna really well. I’ve known her since long before I started working for her, in fact. And I just had this feeling…you’re her type.
She sucked in her breath. “Does she only like women?”
He shook his head. “No, she’s an equal opportunity seductress. The way she looks at it is like this. She’s not planning to ever get
