Page 335 of The Sinner: James

I close my eyes, indulging in being one with him.

“You’re the best man… I love you, James.”

“I love you too, baby.”

And then he takes my lips.

“They’ll know,”I say, my breaths shallow.

Sliding my fingers through his hair, I arch my back and tilt my hips, relishing his hot mouth between my thighs.

He swirls his tongue and sucks on my clit, sending tingles down my spine.

“No, they won’t,” he says, rushing before pressing his lips on me again, making my flesh throb.

He yanks my panties off and rolls my dress up to my waist.

My bare butt sits on his desk, my heels sunk into the armrests of his chair.

“They’ll know if I moan.”

He tears his lips away from my slick flesh and tilts his head up, his eyes locking mine.

“There’s no if. You will moan, darling.”

Holding my gaze, he stretches his arm, reaches for his desk phone, and presses the intercom button.

“Lynn?” he rumbles.

“Yes, sir.”

“Send everybody to the conference room.”

My eyebrows tilt up, a smile curving my lips.

“Until...?” she asks.

“Further instructions.”

“And tell them to do what?”

“Be creative, Lynn,” he says, utterly disappointed in her lack of initiative.

He releases the intercom button.

“Better?”

I nod, barely stifling a chuckle.

“Your secretary knows now.”

“She’s not paid to know.”

“Hmm... So, that’s what she’s been doing all along.”
