Convincing her

The couple enjoyed their lunch together and once they were done, Jen started packing up the empty containers she had brought. 

"Are you leaving already?" Lucas asked, his face filled with reluctance. He did not want her to leave yet. In fact, if he could lug her around everywhere he went that would be ideal.

"Yes, I know your lunch breaks are normally not so long. We already took more than an hour and I shouldn't be a distraction," Jen answered and smiled when she saw his reluctant expression.

"You could stay a bit longer," Lucas said and was disappointed when he saw how Jen did not even pause in her actions despite asking her so nicely.

"I could, but I'll be in the way. I'll go home and rest a bit, then I'll make you dinner, okay? What do you want to eat tonight?" Jen asked, trying to coax him into not holding her back.

"Surprise me," Lucas answered and Jen nodded with a smile before getting off the sofa. Lucas stood up with her and held both her hands in his and looked at her. Jen looked back at him as if asking him what else he wanted to say.

"I'll be back home a bit early today, so you can rest a bit longer if you want to, I'll help you with dinner," Lucas said and Jen nodded in agreement. As she continued to look at him, Jen couldn't help but step forward, pull on the lapels of his jacket and kissed his lips.

Lucas wrapped his hands around her slim waist and pressed her tighter against him as he kissed her back just as intensely. Jen wrapped her hands around his neck and continued to kiss him. This time it was not just a light kiss but rather, it had become so intense that Jen found herself laying on the sofa. His movements were so smooth that their kiss was not disrupted at all. 

Lucas opened his mouth against her lips and pushed his tongue into her mouth, tangling both their tongues with each other. The silent office was filled with the sound of their wet kissing and the rustling of their clothes.

When Lucas finally couldn't help himself from feeling her up, that was when Jen turned her head sideways while panting. She caught the hand that was now stroking her inner thigh as she giggled when he nibbled her ear.

"Lucas, you still have work to do," Jen said after she realized that she couldn't move his hand away.

"Mmmh, I do," Lucas answered as he kissed the side of her neck.

"Then, I'll head home first," Jen said and Lucas nodded in agreement but didn't really let her go, even though he stopped messing around with her thighs.

Jen held his face between her hands and looked into his eyes and felt her heart race. She almost fell back into temptation from how hot his gaze was.

"Why don't we finish this at home? It's not appropriate to do this during work hours," Jen said and Lucas reluctantly agreed. He did not want to but what could he do when she was right? Anyone could ask for him at any time which would be bad since they would have been interrupted.

[James and Laura who didn't really care: …]

Even though he had agreed, Jen had to make a few more promises on what they were going to do later before she was released. Jen, whose cheeks had become even redder from the promises she was forced to make straightened out her dress and makeup and only left Lucas's office when she looked presentable.

This time, she checked for any lipstick stains on Lucas so she wouldn't get embarrassed like she was last time. 

Lucas walked her out of his office and took her all the way to the car she drove to the office. Jen unlocked the car and was about to open the door to get in but was stopped by Lucas who pressed his hand against the car door.

Jen who was trapped between him and the car looked up at him in question, so were the few employees that were just coming back to the office from their lunch break.

"Goodbye kiss," he said, like it was the most normal thing to do. As if he was surprised that she had forgotten about doing it.

"You're being silly," Jen complained and even tried to slip away, but Lucas caught her by her waist with his free hand. Jen looked at him and knew he was being serious about this. He didn't look like he was going to let her go unless she gave him a good bye kiss.

"Are you feeling shy? We're going to get married in the future, you'll have to do this in front of everyone anyway, so you might as well start practicing now," Lucas said. He was clearly speaking nonsense!

"What does that have to do with a goodbye kiss?" Jen complained but still pecked his lips. Lucas smiled and opened the door for her. Jen quickly slipped into the car and right after she was properly settled behind the wheel, Lucas gave her a lingering kiss on her lips.

"Drive safe," he said against her lips and smiled mischievously before closing the car door. Jen pursed her lips as the image of his dimpled smile lingered in her mind. It took her some time to orient herself before she turned on the car and went back home.

Once she walked into the hotel suite, she made a beeline for the bedroom and went to take a shower. After drying herself, she picked a shirt and climbed in bed to take a nap.

Because of the satisfying lunch, Jen was feeling drowsy so it did not take her too long before she fell asleep in the comfortable bed that smelled like Lucas.

Lucas on the other hand, had ended up driving his subordinates into a frenzy from the speed at which he was completing his work. He not only covered what he had to finish that day, but also what he had to cover on the following day so that he would not have to go to the office the next day.

Everyone was happy to work so hard because it meant that they would have tomorrow free as well. Who did not want laze around at home on a Sunday? So work went quite fast that day.

As Lucas was finally leaving the office, he glanced at his assistant and Martin felt goosebumps rise on his skin.

"I think we can keep this pace up in the future so that we have our nights free, right?" Lucas suggested and Martin could only nod in response. It's not like he could refute him especially since everyone's efficiency was so high today.

"Tell everyone else, we'll at least have our weekends a bit freer like this," Lucas said as he stepped into the car. Martin could only watch as the driver shut the door behind Lucas and the car drive off.
