LEAH

" T hank you for your time, ma'am, and next time, please check in with your loved ones to avoid these types of misunderstandings." The officer frowns at the two sentinels standing guard behind me.

He kept repeating his questions to make sure I wasn't lying until Kai snapped a few moments ago.

"Cher, you did well." He says, coming up and rubbing my shoulders.

"It wouldn't have been that complicated if you'd just let me speak to him alone. We had nothing to hide. Besides, Annie called them and cleared it all up." I glance up over my shoulder at him.

"I didn't like the way he was looking at you." Seer growls from the other side of Kai.

"Me either," Kai growls in agreement.

I roll my eyes and stand. We found the two officers sitting at the bar talking to Cowboy when we arrived. Spirits opens for brunch and closes at three every morning. All the club members take turns helping to run the establishment since they live rent-free above it in the clubhouse.

"I'm going to go check the new brew," Kai says to Seer before kissing my cheek.

"See you later at home." He winks at me before leaving Seer's office.

Kai's been working on a pale ale for fall and has been very hush-hush about the recipe. He's the Brewmaster of the brewery, while Seer runs the establishment's day-to-day operations. They make a great team, and I yet again find myself thinking how I would fit into their equation.

I know they're lovers and have been for years, but they also have Phoebe. Where would that leave me? Do they even want to add another person into the bedroom after losing Sam?

"Hey, what's going on in that head of yours, Baby?" Seer takes my hands in his and brings them to his lips.

He kisses my knuckles slowly as he watches me think.

"Just trying to figure out how to get my life back on track and where I belong in the world." It's as honest as I can be with all these raw emotions running through me.

"You start small. Other than where you'll be living since we established that this morning, what is the next important thing?" Well, when you put it like that, it's easy.

"School," I don't even hesitate, and it makes him smile at me.

"Come with me," he tugs me out of the office and walks me to the bar.

Everyone notices how the Boss is holding my hand like a lost child, but I notice the smirks and my heart lurches. Not a child.

A lover.

I try to pull it away but he's having none of it. To make matters worse, when I sit on the stool, he pulls out for me. He drops a kiss on my forehead like it's a typical day for him, and he kisses all his employees. My cheeks burn when he walks away and taps Cowboy on his arm.

"Hey, Leah," I turn to see one of the other waitresses coming up with an empty tray.

"Hi," I can't remember her name.

She just started a few weeks ago, and we haven't worked together much. She's looking over my shoulder at where Seer and Cowboy are still talking.

"How long have you been fucking him?" I cringe at her words.

"What?" I shake my head, and she rolls her eyes.

"I got called in early because you couldn't crawl out of the boss's bed for your shift. The least you could do is be honest." I was so shocked by her words that I missed Kai walking in from the brewery.

She slams into him and gasps.

"You're fired. Get the fuck out." I've never heard him use that tone with anyone.

He's livid.

"Are you fucking serious? Why?" Kai isn't amused by her public display at all.

His eyes narrow at her as he points at me.

"Leah's house burnt down last night, and you come in to cover, then accuse her of fucking the boss? No, we don't need employees like you." She throws the tray and her apron on the bar in a huff.

"Fuck you!" Storming out the side door, she turns around one more time and flips us all off.

"Are you ok?" Seer says, engulfing me in a hug.

"Baby, you're shivering." I can't find my words but manage to nod into his chest.

I have to clear my throat a few times before I can get the words stuck there out.

"She just took me off guard. I'm fine. Are we short-handed now? I can go clock in." Kai curses and bangs on the metal tray on the bar like a bong.

"Listen up! Leah isn't working today for one reason only. Her place burned down last night. I'm sure you were all wondering why she arrived with Seer and me, but it's none of your fucking business. All you need to know is that if we catch anyone disrespecting another employee, you're fired, no questions asked. Got it?" Kai's voice echoed for a moment before the other working person agreed with him.

"Fuck he's hot." Seer's words startle me.

"Yeah, he is," I whisper, and he chuckles in my ear before kissing my neck.

"Come on, we got some news for you." He retakes my hand, and this time, I don't bother trying to hide it.

"Oh darling, I'm so sorry. How you holding up?" Cowboy stands in the doorway of Seer's office, waiting for us.

He offers me a hug, which I accept.

"I've been better."

"I have no doubt, Sugar. I hope what we have for you will brighten your day a little. Come on in," Seer says. He is sitting behind his desk, waiting, and I find myself wanting to be close to him.

He's my safety net, and I'm not ashamed to admit it, so I walk next to him and lean on his desk while Cowboy closes the door.

"Blaze and the boys went over to the house after the Fire Chief gave us the all-clear. We found a few salvageable things, one of which was your laptop." My heart skips.

"Glitch has it now, but she's hopeful. She can't promise a full recovery, but at least you won't need to start from scratch." I slump in relief.

"Thank you," it's nowhere near good enough, but it's all I got at the moment.

"I'll let ya'll talk about the rest." Cowboy grins as he leaves us alone.

The silence in the little office is loud as I slowly turn to look at Seer.

"Wanna tell me exactly what happened out there with Jules?" That was her name.

"Other than her being a complete bitch?" I shrug.

"My my, such language." Seer grabs my arm and tugs me into his lap.

"That's better," he sighs as he buries his nose in my hair.

"Seer," he shakes his head.

"Nah, Fabien. You call me Fabien when we're alone, Baby." His lips trail down my neck, and my entire world narrows to a pinpoint.

My clit.

It throbs under the dress I'm wearing, and I can't afford to get wet cause I have no fucking underwear on. I pull away from his embrace, and the fire in his eyes says more than any words could.

"We shouldn't," I start to explain why it's a bad idea, but his lips shut me right up.

"Leah, I'm going to taste you right here, right now. So unless you want me to stop, shut the fuck up." He lifts me onto his desk and buries his face under the maxi dress.

"Oh my God," I gasp as I catch myself on my elbows as he forces my thighs wide with his shoulders.

"Is that what I told you to call me?" His breath is right there!

"No?" I gasp as the first swipe of his tongue opens my folds.

I can't see him, and I want to watch this, so I grip the dress and yank it up over his head. His hair is disheveled, and those eyes are pools of black onyx as they stare up at me under full lashes that every woman on Earth would envy.

"Stay still, and let me enjoy my breakfast." He licks again, and my world spins.

"Fuck," I groan as he applies the light pressure to my clit.

I groan when it's suddenly not enough.

"You need to find your voice, Baby. I can't tell you what you like cause you don't know. I need you to be vocal. If you need hard, tell me. If I do something you hate, stop me. Don't just take what I give you. Take what you need from me." I feel his fingers circling my entrance as he speaks, and my hips lift when they move away.

"More," I hiss, and his eyebrow raises.

"More what?" My head falls flat on the desk.

"Pressure, suction, licking, more everything. Don't ever stop." He chuckles.

"Yes, Ma'am," and then proceeds to do all the above.

He tries a few combinations until he finds the one that has me squirming, trying to get away. At the same time, I bury my hand in his hair so he keeps on going.

I can feel the build-up in my core. All my research and knowledge tell my brain that the endorphins have built up enough to explode into my first climax, and yet I'm still not orgasming.

"Stop thinking and start feeling, Baby." His finger, which was being very careful only to tease my opening, suddenly slips into the first knuckle.

I gasp as the sensations change. My core spasms and grips onto the digit, and it's like the final puzzle piece.

I shatter.

I bring my hand up and bite to stop from screaming as Fabien keeps sucking and licking, making my back arch on the desk.

"That's it. Ride the wave, Baby. Fuck you're gorgeous like this." His free hand rubs up and down my thigh as I slowly calm down.

My neck is over the end of the desk, and I'm staring at the couch in front of his desk when a sharp knock comes to the door. Whoever it is just walks in without waiting, and I scramble to sit up.

"Oh my," Kai says when he enters to find me sprawled out like a feast and Fabien licking his lips like the cat with the cream.

A small giggle at my bad pun falls from my lips, and both men glance at me.

Kai looks at Fabien suspiciously.

"She's not cum drunk. My dick is still in my pants." I snort and cover my face.

"I think you broke her." Kai accuses, and I lose it.

I just let my boss eat me out at work, on his desk where anyone could and did walk in on us.

Annie is going to be so proud.
