She needed to leave work. She was supposed to be meeting Tom for dinner, and she was already going to be late. She looked over at her coworker, Hank, sitting in the spare chair in her office, smiling at her.
He'd just told her about his days on the swim team in college, and made reference to spending a lot of his time wearing nothing but a Speedo.
Just a few more minutes wouldn't hurt, she told herself. She could call Tom and tell him she was late getting away from work. Perhaps he was running late as well so it wouldn't matter anyway. She looked across her cubicle at the handsome young man sitting so casually in the chair across from her desktop.
"I'd like to see that," she said with a coquettish smile.
"What," he replied, "you don't think I could rock a Speedo?"
"I didn't say that," she said, "I said I would like to see it, precisely because I have a suspicion you
would
rock a speedo."
"Oh i definitely do, but you'd only get to see it if I get to see you wearing a bikini," he said with an evil grin, "
tit
for tat, don't you think?"
He made sure to glance down the front of her shirt when he said the word 'tit' making sure she knew he definitely intended the double entendre.
Hank had visited her quite a bit in the two days that she had been back at work. He worked in accounting, and Jessie knew of his reputation as a pussy hound even before the arrival of the book in her life. The change within her brought on by the book helped her to realize why he might have that reputation. He was very good looking, something she had never noticed before finding the book. He was also incredibly charming, which she had never noticed because she had pretty much shut down any conversation with him that wasn't work related, and he ended up giving up trying to talk to her.
"That could probably be arranged," Jessie responded to his offer of quid pro quo.
"I'd like that," he replied, once again scanning down her body as he said it. "I'd like that a lot."
Hank had been the first to notice the change in Jessie's dress and demeanor when she'd arrived at work on Wednesday, and he had pounced, like a lion that had been patiently waiting for its prey. He'd seen her in the hall, noticing her much more provocative work attire, and he'd chatted her up. When she responded to him more positively, he'd made sure to stop and visit her in her office several times on both Wednesday and Thursday.
By Thursday afternoon, their conversation had become quite flirtatious. He'd stopped by when he noticed Jessie working late, trying to catch up on the work she'd fallen behind on with her time off.
It was only the two of them in the office, and Hank had pushed the flirting to a higher level and was clearly intrigued that Jessie had welcomed it and responded in kind.
She hadn't ventured into the book at all before going in to work on either Wednesday or Thursday. She knew that if she had, and had been as consumed by desire as she always was after having done so, there would be little doubt that she would have already succumbed to Hank's advanced. Even without the sexual hunger that always followed a trip into the book, she still was seriously considering letting him have her, even if it meant telling Tom she couldn't make it to dinner.
"You know," he continued, "seeing you in a bra and panties would be very similar to seeing you in a bikini. You could show me right now and I promise I'll bring a Speedo in tomorrow."
Without even stopping to consider the implications of her words, she responded with the first thing that came to mind.
"What makes you think I'm wearing panties?"
She had got him on that one. She could see the look of surprise on his face at her admission that she was going commando. She'd had to wear a bra to keep everyone from constantly seeing her nipples in the shirt she was wearing, but her skirt was just long enough that she could go commando underneath and not risk anyone noticing.
But his surprise at her admission didn't last long.
"Even better," he said. "I wouldn't even need to wait until I could bring a Speedo to reciprocate. We could do it right now."
God she was horny in that moment.
While she hadn't taken any excursions into the book for two days, she also hadn't had sex for two days. Tom was already asleep by the time she'd gotten home from work Wednesday night and she decided not to wake him. Once she'd learned that she was essentially feeding on other people's energy during sex, she also realized she was draining Tom faster than he could replenish himself. She got less and less energy from him every time they had sex.
She wondered if part of appeal with Hank was that he represented a fresh pool of energy.
In that moment, it seemed
so
appealing to her to take him up on his offer. He'd clearly suggested a "you show me yours and I'll show you mine" offer. She knew with certainly that would lead to the two of them fucking.
And she wanted it.
She
really
wanted it.
She was so, so close to standing up and undressing in front of him.
"I'll have to take a rain check on that offer, Hank," she eventually said after fighting down her desires. "I really need to leave and meet Tom for dinner."
"You could call him and tell him you got stuck at work and can't make it," Hank suggested. "I could make sure you really did get stuck at work so that it wouldn't be a lie."
