Professional Liaison by Sandy Sullivan Read Free Book Online

their mates sir and I was curious so I asked him. He explained.” She shrugged her shoulders and sipped from her glass. “After we dated for a few months, it became natural for me to allow him to take control. A Dom always gives his sub what she needs, but not necessarily what she wants.”
    “I don’t understand.”
    Mandy gave her a knowing smile. “You will.”

    Melissa stared at the water dripping from her roof into the bucket on the floor.
Plop. Plop.
    Shit! This is going to drive me nuts.
    Grabbing the phone, she dialed Brad and Mandy’s number.
“Hey, Lissa.”
“Hi, Brad.”
“What’s up?”
    “I need your expertise, cousin.”
“Sure.”
    “I have a leak in my living room.”
    “I’m not surprised. That roof is at least twenty years old. I told you it should have been replaced last year.”
    “Yeah well, I didn’t and now it’s leaking. Can you come over and put a new roof on for me? I’ll even pay you.”
    Brad laughed on the other end of the phone line. “I can’t this week, but I can spare a couple of guys to fix it. I’ll send them over there tomorrow. Do you think you can live with it tonight?”
    “Do I have a choice?”
    “No, not really. It’s kind of hard to do a roof job in the dark.”
“Funny man.”
    “I’ll send them over first thing in the morning even if it is Saturday.”
    “All right. I’ll watch for them. And Brad?”
“Yeah?”
“Thanks.”
    “You bet. I have to take care of my favorite cousin-in-law, right?”
    “Only because if you didn’t, Mandy would have your hide and you probably wouldn’t get any sex for a month.”
    “My little wife knows exactly how to submit.”
    Her thoughts swirling, she said, “I really didn’t need to hear that, Brad.”
    “Why not? She told me about your conversation at the barbeque.”
    “She didn’t, did she?”
    “Mandy told me of your curiosity. If you’d like, next time we go to Leathers, we’ll take you along. Just for curiosity’s sake, that is.”
    “Yeah.” Melissa pinched the bridge of her nose between her fingers. “Anyway, thanks for sending the workers over and I’ll give you a check next time I see you.”
    “No worries. Talk to you later.”
    “Bye.” She hung up the phone and sighed.
    Damn it!
    Ever since the barbeque, she hadn’t been able to get Drew out of her thoughts. Every time she took a bath, she remembered how he’d rubbed her shoulders, dried her off with one of her towels and made her come on command before he drove his cock deep inside her. She shivered and rubbed her arms as she watched the water drip into the bucket on the floor. Moving toward the refrigerator, she grabbed the bottle of wine, a glass and headed to her room to try to forget about the disturbing man who invaded her mind and dreams more than she wanted these days.
    Unfortunately, visions of him fucking her senseless invaded her thoughts there, too. She couldn’t believe she’d let him stay the night. That never happened. Usually if she brought anyone home, which she rarely did, they never stayed overnight. It usually ended in a “thanks for the good time, but there’s the door.” Drew had pulled her butt against his pelvis, her shoulders back so she lay cradled within his embrace while his lips whispered along her skin until she fell into one of the best night’s sleep she’d ever had.
    She shook her head in a vain attempt to rid the disturbing man from her thoughts.
    Rip roaring drunk. Maybe that will help. If it wasn’t fucking raining, I’d sit in the hot tub.
“Damn rain!”
    Instead, she poured some bath salts into the sunken tub in her bathroom and flipped on the hot water. Half a glass of wine down and three quarters of a bottle to go, she slipped off her clothes and sank beneath the warm bubbles with a weary sigh. She set her glass and the bottle on the side of the tub before she tipped her head back on the rim and closed her eyes.
“Liss.”
    A soft moan rose from her lips and she whispered,
