It gutted me she was such a traitor, but there was not a fucking thing I could do about it. All I could do was focus on my anger and try my best to turn it into hatred.
I resisted the urge to stroke her cheek as she slept, the same way in which I resisted the urge to engage my emotions while we had sex.
I closed my eyes. I was not quite sleeping, hovering on the periphery of consciousness. I was not sure how long afterwards it was when I felt her slip out of bed. I opened my eyes just in time to see her shadow slip out of the room.
I lay still, my mind whirling until I saw her trying to slip back into bed. Deliberately, I moaned and rolled over and she froze in her tracks. I kept up the act by stretching out to ‘find’ her side of the bed empty. I made a big show of fluttering my eyes open and starting to sit up in bed.
“Sorry if I woke you,” she said. “I went to get a drink of water.”
“Another drink?” I asked innocently.
She slipped back into bed beside me.
I lay back down, taking her with me. She turned her back and spooned into the curve of my body. I placed a thigh between hers and a hand on her hip as usual. I listened to her breathing. She was awake. But neither of us spoke. I trailed my finger down her hip and over her mound, slipping them between her labia. I found her clit, soft and hidden between the folds. With a light touch I began to stroke her. I moved my hand to my mouth to moisten my fingers then resumed stroking. I heard her sigh and felt her legs relax against mine as her clit grew hard.
Her hand came around to find my erect cock. She held me and began stroking.
I rolled her over to face me, keeping my hand between her legs. While my thumb continued to circle her clit, my middle finger dipped into her traitorous sweet pussy.
Silently, I rolled between her spread legs and entered her body. As I felt the tension heighten in my knees, I knew this would be a quick trip. I pressed and twisted, bringing her to the peak of pleasure before following her over the edge.
I rolled off and pulled her into my arms and, just like that, she was out like a light. I lay looking up at the ceiling, falling into fitful sleep only when the first fingers of dawn shone in the distance.
I dropped Savannah home before proceeding to the office.
Work was good, because it stopped me thinking of her. I got down to business and it was way past lunch time when Sheila brought me a very thick ham and beef sandwich.
“Eat,” she ordered.
“Thanks,” I said, as she slipped out of my office.
The afternoon ran off, and before I knew it Gerald was sitting in my office, shedding his coat and jacket.
“I’m not cut out for this cloak and dagger stuff. Sure, I can build it into an app, but man, the drive over here was nerve-wracking!”
Gerald and I used to work together as the top programmers at Robert’s. He knew I was innocent. Through him, I had direct access to Robert’s operations. We very rarely met in person.
“So, what’s so urgent you had to see me, Gerry?”
“I have some information that I think will be useful to you.” He took a folder out of his shirt and slid it across to me. “I stayed back last night and took pictures of the originals and printed them at home. I haven’t been to work today: I called in sick. I get the feeling I’m being watched.”
I opened the folder and scanned the information. My eyebrows rose at intervals.
“Well, well, well. Robert is getting a little smart isn’t he.” Before me lay bits and pieces of the fake software I’d been planting. Somehow, Robert had found someone to work out the errors I had built into them and was in the process of using the remnants to build legitimate software. I was duly impressed.
“I think we need to step up the heat a bit. This cannot go on indefinitely. Right now, he’s hanging by a thread. But if the jackass figures out this software it could put him back into a fighting position. If you’re going to ruin him, you have to strike soon, like within the next few weeks. I’m trying to delay the test runs as much as possible, but there’s going to come a time when it’s completed and I won’t be able to delay it any longer.”
I nodded. “Got it.” I tapped the folder. “It’s vital information. Good job, Gerry.”
He smiled and nodded. “Anything I can do to help. He did you wrong, Max. If only there was some way to prove it.”
