Page 31 of Stolen Moments with a Bad Boy

I looked between both of them. The sexual energy that filled the air was thick enough to choke on. Their pheromones seasoned the sexual tension with their own fragrance, lust number nine.

“I'm sorry to interrupt, but there are a few more things I need to handle,” I remarked. It was my way of trying to break them from their reverie of each other.

“My bad, boss lady. I just need a moment to get to know this beautiful woman standing in front of me. What’s your name, sweetheart?” Raquel inquired.

“I know you just heard Erie say my name,” Dawn sassed.

“I did, but I’m asking you. Now what’s your name?” Raquel repeated, swaggering in front of Dawn.

“My name is Dawn, and you are?”

Raquel licked her lips sexily. “My name is Raquel, but the most important people in my life call me Toy. I’m hoping you can be one of those people.”

She picked up Dawn’s hand and placed a gentle kiss on top of it.

“We shall see, sexy.”

They exchanged information, and Raquel walked out my office.

“Hey, Erie, again. I’m ready to set up your new surveillance cameras.”

“Yes, boo. I’m ready. Do you need me to show you around again?”

“No, babes. I’m good. It’s my job to remember things like this. You can do your work while I set up and go from there.”

“Alright. Let me know if you need anything.”

My fingers worked the keys of my laptop while I came up with ideas for the baby nurseries. After some much-needed online shopping, time went by. Before I knew it, Dawn tapped me on my shoulder.

“I’m all done.”

“Already, love?” I quizzed.

“Yes, ma’am. What I installed for you are state-of-the-art surveillance cameras. They’re tiny and waterproof. These little devils are so good that even if the power is tripped, they still work because of the engineering behind them.

“If there is an emergency of any kind, they automatically alert the police. You also have a new security system that’s mobile. You’ll have access to your security footage and everything else, no matter if you’re in or out of the country,” Dawn explained.

“Wow! This is absolutely amazing! Thank you so much, Dawn. How much do I owe you?”

“Don’t insult me, girl. You’ve paid me enough by breathing life back into my boss. Doing this is just a simple thank you, but if you must know, Janeiro already covered the expenses. Now, I need to get going, and so do you if you plan on making your flight to you guys’ babymoon on time.” Dawn wiggled her eyebrows.

“You are absolutely correct. I’ll walk out with you before Janeiro picks me up and carries me out caveman style.”

We laughed together.

“You have a point there.”

We gathered our things and made our way to the dining hall of my café.

I walked over to Londen and gave her a big hug. “Are you sure you can handle this for a week? It’s okay to want to change your mind.”

“Girl, if you don’t get gone and enjoy this time with your man. One day soon, I’ll be doing the same, and I won’t think twice about it,” Londen revealed.

“I know you won’t. You and my dad are obsessed with each other.” I playfully pretended to frown.

“Girl, hush. Everyone knows you’re a creep about Janeiro. You’re always invading his personal space in any capacity and don’t feel bad about it. Only if he knew relationships aren’t supposed to be that weird. Am I lying, Dawn?” Londen chortled.

Dawn held up her hands in a surrender pose and chuckled.
