her. Good terrible things, but not the sort of things that any proper young lady should generally find herself doing. The memory of her on her knees earlier returned to him, when she cupped his balls in one of her hands while she stroked up and down his shaft with the other, and licked and sucked at the head of his cock with her mouth and her plump, kissable lips, and her salacious, insatiable tongue. It was glorious.
She'd been writing something. Supposedly a story about excessive manual stimulation and squirting, but that's not the story he saw. In fact, he was quite intrigued by what he'd read, though she didn't appear to be very far along with it yet. How far would she go, he wondered?
He remembered it easily, remembered their time together in the library. He'd gone for admirable reasons, and yet he felt like a wretch for intruding upon her sanctuary, too. What had she written? Trapped in a library during a blizzard, Elise finds herself forced into isolation with Lucent Storme, the untoward magnate who's rumored to have more than a few forbidden desires and darker passions. Yes, that sounded apt. He hoped she continued the story, as well.
Would she put in the scene that happened that day? It was one of the most memorable moments of his life, and he thought about it often.
By all means, Miss Tanner , he'd said then. Don't let me interrupt you.
With a soft, uncertain whisper, she had replied. What?
Continue.
The memory made him smile. As much as he would have liked to relive the past with fond admiration, he didn't have the time at the moment. Unfortunate, that. Something about Mr. Landseer's final statement during the meeting left him feeling uneasy.
Asher didn't intend to do anything about the break-in at Jessika's office. No added security measures, no extra fortifications. Mr. Landseer planned to investigate further, but beyond that he offered no insight into what Landseer Enterprises would be doing.
What bothered Lucent about this was what if one of the culprits, or at least one of the people acting as the catalyst behind the incident, was in the conference room at that very meeting?
Landseer Enterprises had a fairly recent poor record of incidents involving the board of directors. Lucent's predecessor caused quite a stir with the media, and Jessika Landseer was involved with the scandal in a different way, too. It struck him as oddly horrifying and symbolic that the man who was Director of Public Relations before him had ended up causing so much reputational harm to Asher Landseer and his business. Granted, it was mostly repaired now, through various active and passive efforts. Many in the media took to deflective tactics, though. Harsh and unfair, yet not entirely unforeseeable.
This current incident seemed like a part of that. Perhaps not directly related to Solomon Royce, ex-Director of Public Relations, nor directly related to Jessika Landseer, but related nonetheless. Whomever had broken into her office knew exactly what they were doing and why they wanted to do it.
What, then, had they stolen?
Supposedly nothing. Supposedly Henry and his security team went through the office and found everything fine, though in obvious disarray. Mrs. Landseer didn't think anything was missing, either.
Lucent was almost positive something had been taken, though. If not a physical object, data from her computer, or something less tangible and evident. Floor plans? Maybe something more obscure and obtuse? If the goal was to remove Jessika's comfort and make her feel uneasy in her surroundings, that could allow further progression to take place in accordance with these feelings and emotions. In essence, perhaps causing her fear, anxiety, and paranoia was intruder's goal?
There was a lot to think about here, a lot at hand, and at this current point in time Lucent doubted he could do much more than prepare. Glancing towards his laptop, he readied himself
