“Just like that,” Dominic said.

“Yes, baby.”

Our bodies slapped together, while grunts and moans enveloped the room. He grasped my breast, licked his left hand, and played with my clit.

“Laurennn!!! Ugh...God Damn. Keep going, baby; your pussy is squeezing my dick.”

“Mmmmm...Dominic, come with me,” I cried out, rocking harder back and forth. We made eye contact, and something shifted in my soul. Not being able to explain it, I bent down to kiss him as my body shuddered from the orgasm. I fell on top of him, unmoving. He wrapped his arms around me, rubbed my back, and kissed my forehead as our bodies drifted off to sleep.

Chapter Fourteen

Lauren

“Wake up, sunshine. I made breakfast,” Novah yelled from the other side of the door. I heard a knock but had no desire to move.

“Novah, leave me alone,” I shouted, feeling Dominic pull me closer to his chest, kissing the back of my head.

“You two need to get up. It’s almost nine in the morning. Danielle called the house phone looking for you,” Novah replied back. We both groaned. We’d been hearing our phones go off throughout the morning; neither of us moved to answer.

“She’s right, and I need to head out,” Dominic spoke, removing his arms and sitting up in bed. I looked over my shoulder, noticing a tattoo on his back with the name Frogmen.

“Why do you have a tattoo named Frogmen on your back?” I asked, sitting up, drawing the sheet to cover my breasts. He picked up his phone and began scrolling through his messages; a deep frown marred his face.

“Check your phone,” he said.

“What’s wrong?” I asked as I looked for my phone, then picked it up off the charger.

“A name for my SEAL team from the Navy. Danielle text you 911 on your phone?” he asked, standing up and grabbing his pants off the floor.

“WTF!” I screamed, clicking on a message that went to an article on Maven magazine stating that Raven Cosmetics had damaging products, but the top celebrity influencer had a sex tape that would draw the line for families.

“Who is this bitch?” I yelled to myself, jumping out of bed.

“My ex,” Dominic responded as I started getting dressed.

“You didn’t think to tell me that at dinner? She’s out to destroy Raven Cosmetics and me.”

“I broke up with her because she cheated, lied, and tried to pin a baby on me. My past ain’t pretty when it comes to the dating department, Lauren. Aren’t you the one dealing with a sex tape? We both have crazy exes,” he told me.

“I need to shower and head into the office,” I said, walking off toward the bathroom.

“Fine, I’ll have Emmanuel drive you. Hey!”

“What?”

“We need to talk about what happened yesterday. Once things cool down.”

“Yeah,” I said, not waiting for him to continue.

An hour later, I was walking through Danielle’s office where Elijah, Zoe, Dominic, and Emmanuel were sitting around talking. She looked upset and annoyed. I was worried that they were probably ready to fire me over this.

“Danielle, I’m so sorry-” I started to say but she held her hand up, stopping me.

“It’s not your fault. I underestimated Jacinda, and now she’s trying to destroy what we’ve built over the years,” Danielle said, reaching out to give me a hug.

“She’s your ex-girlfriend. What’s the motivation behind bringing Raven Cosmetics down?” Elijah asked.
