“I thought the reason you stayed in shape was because you
ate very light during the day and saved your appetite for dinner time,” I teased
him.

“It’s been a rather stressful morning, so I needed a full
stomach,” he countered with that sexy smirk.

“Alright, I’ll let this one slide.”  I gave him a wink
to let him know that I was only half-serious.

~~~

The second we joined Brandon, Jayne, and Brenda in the
conference room, we knew the cat was out of the bag.  Brenda was acting
normal, but the other two looked like they were both struggling to contain
themselves.

“Did you guys have a good night?” Jayne asked with a
not-so-subtle look of disapproval.

“Where did you stay last night, Dad?” Brandon added. “It
wasn’t the Atrium Room was it?”

“Alright, I’m not going to take any shit from you two this
morning.  We were set up,” Jack replied flatly, as he slapped his
briefcase on the conference table.

“Really?” Jayne continued, “How did they coerce you into
having sex in a room filled with windows?”

“Moving on,” Jack said without even looking up.

Suddenly Brenda was up to speed and the look on her face was
priceless.  Jack pulled out a pair of reading glasses and began going over
the things he wanted to cover before lunch.  I was impressed by how he
instantly turned everyone’s attention back to business.  Both Brandon and
Jayne were obviously disappointed that they weren’t going to get more mileage
out of the scandalous topic.

 Jack went through the agenda at a blistering pace,
making snap decisions and tabling anything that couldn’t be immediately
resolved.  It was obvious that Jack wanted to minimize the time he spent
in the city.

“Are you intent on covering the entire manufacturing line in
one day?” Jayne asked when lunchtime came and went without a break.

“Yes.  Then we will go through the supply chain
tomorrow and marketing on Friday,” he replied.

“Okay,” Jayne said, “so you are leaving right away?”

“Yes.  I’m scheduled to be in the Bahamas on Monday,”
he told her.

“For what?” Brandon interjected.

Apparently, I’m not the only one who Jack has been
keeping in the dark.  What if something went wrong?  I understand
he’s self-reliant and doesn’t like people worrying about him, but this is way
over the line.

“Let’s order in some lunch and when it gets here I’ll
discuss it with all of you,” he said as he turned his attention back to the
agenda.  “I’m not hungry, so order from wherever you want.”

After that huge breakfast, I wasn’t the least bit hungry
either.  Jack seemed happy to check a few more items off the list before
lunch arrived.  As the others began eating, he went on to the next item of
business.

“Sorry, Dad, but you’re not reneging on telling us what’s
up,” Jayne insisted.

“It’s no big deal guys.  I’m just going down to
Freeport to meet with a cardiologist about the prospects of using stem cell
therapy to regenerate some heart tissue,” he replied as if it were an annual
physical.

“Stem cell therapy?  You think that’s a minor detail?”
Jayne said appearing shocked.  “Are they using bone marrow?  What’s
the risk of rejection?  They just passed legislation down there that shut
down several clinics that were promoting unproven techniques.”

“Have you been working on a medical degree that I didn’t
know about,” Jack asked with a dose of sarcasm.

“Really, Dad?  The males in our family have been cursed
with degenerative heart disease.  You don’t think I’ve done a little
research on the issue?” she retorted.

“Sorry, Jayne, I didn’t mean to insult you. 
Apparently, they use my own stems cells, so there is no rejection risk. 
There is still contamination risk and of course, there is always a risk when
you insert a catheter and inject anything directly into your heart.  If
there are any red flags, I won’t pursue it.  You know that I won’t go and
do anything foolish.”

“Why weren’t you going to tell us?” Brandon demanded.

“I haven’t even talked to anyone down there yet.  I
didn’t want you all sitting here worried about me,” Jack explained.

“So you were just going to do this and let us know
afterwards?” Jayne reiterated.

“I would never do anything serious without talking to you
guys, but this is minor,” Jack assured all of us.  “I promise I’ll be
cautious and I’ll keep you guys posted.  Now, is there anything else
before we get back to business?”

“I have one more request,” Brandon said with a smirk.

“Yes…” Jack acknowledged him hesitantly.

“Please stay at the St. Regis from now on,” he requested,
almost causing Jayne to choke on her food.

“I’m sorry you had to witness this, Brenda,” Jack said
shaking his head and trying to shoot his son a serious look.

“Actually, I’m enjoying it.  I love hearing some good
family banter,” she assured him.

As I sat there laughing with Jayne, Brandon, and Brenda, it
occurred to me that they had accepted the fact that I was with Jack. 
There wasn’t any uncomfortable tension, and we could actually joke about the
scene we had accidentally created the night before at the hotel. 
Today
has gone much smoother than I had imagined it would
.

As if on cue, my phone began to buzz.  Looking down, I
saw that it was Mom, so I chose to press the ignore button.  I then waited
to see if she called right back.  If she did, then I would know that she
was upset and determined to talk to me right now. 
I know she’ll call
me right back.  She’s probably heard the news.
  Those thoughts
hadn’t even passed when my phone began to buzz a second time.  Pressing
ignore
once again, I knew I would have an interesting voice mail to listen to when our
meeting adjourned.  My phone beeped indicating a new voicemail, just as I
had predicted. 

Within seconds, Jack reached into his jacket pocket and
retrieved his ringing phone.  He muted the sound and looked over at me as
a subtle smile rolled across his face. 
Whoa, Mom is really pissed.

Jack

As the day wrapped up, I checked with Tim to make sure he
had retrieved my bags from The London.  I informed him that we would be
spending the rest of our stay at the St. Regis.  The view from the Diamond
room was good enough, and they would ensure our privacy as well.  There
would be no paparazzi lurking outside our door. 
I have to get in touch
with my old friend Anthony Garcia.  He will be able to help me take care
of the Ricci bothers. 
Anthony and I had gone to grade school together
back when we lived in Queens and we had played football against each other in
high school.  After high school, Anthony joined the Marines and served in
both Iraq and Afghanistan as part of the Special Forces unit
.  
He’s such a badass.  They won’t know what the hell hit them.

As Kate joined me in the limo, all of the thoughts regarding
stem cells, paparazzi, and the Ricci brothers faded into the background. 
She kicked off her shoes and slid toward me across the soft leather seat.

“Damn, it’s cold out there,” she said slipping her cold feet
between my thighs.

“Yeah, I’ve had enough winter for one year.  My god
your toes are freezing.”  I grabbed hold of them to speed up the thawing.

“I’ve been freezing all day for some reason,” she said as if
she didn’t realize it was February in New York.

“I told you to grab your blue fox coat this morning.”

“It always makes me feel self-conscious wearing something
like that.”

“It looks so good on you, but I suppose you could go back to
wearing that old trench coat.” 
Ouch!
  I had momentarily
forgotten that her feet were between my legs.  I thought back to that
first night at the St. Regis when she had been too ashamed to wear or even
carry it. 
She was so adorable.

Chapter 7 – A Little R&R

Kate

Checking into the St. Regis felt much different than it had
the first time.  No one was giving us disapproving looks or saying things
in hushed tones.  In fact, no one seemed to care whether Jack and I were
even a couple.  The bellhop greeted both of us by name and took us up to
the beautiful Diamond Suite.  It was strange being back there again after
only a few days.  In some ways, it felt like it had been a long time since
we checked out.  Neither Jack nor I had gotten much sleep since Saturday
night, so we ordered a couple of our favorites from room service.  While
Jack took care of the food, I threw on a warm, fuzzy robe and began to fill the
Jacuzzi tub with steamy, hot water. 

I sat along the edge of the tub and dangled my cold feet into
the steamy water.  The shocking temperature difference sent a shiver up my
spine. 
I hope Jack still intends to work from the yacht for the next
few months.   Escaping this city until May would be totally
awesome.  There is nothing I need to be back for until my graduation from
Fashion U.
  I straightened my arms and let the robe fall to the floor
as I slid the rest of my body into the tub. 
Mmmm, that feels
fantastic.
  Jack came up behind me and began massaging my neck and
shoulders.

“You have such incredible hands,” I said softly as he
caressed away the tension.

“After watching you drop your robe, I want to use more than
just my hands.  Unfortunately, I have to wait a few more minutes for our
food to arrive.  I don’t want Gerard to run into a sexual encounter within
the first hour we’re back.”

I just smiled and thought about how embarrassed Jack had
been upon finding lattes or a meal that had been delivered to the room while we
were having sex
.  I’m sure those types of things happen all the time in
hotels like this.  The staff has to be completely immune to it. 
After the scene at The London this morning, though, I’m sure Jack will be
rather subdued for the rest of the week.  I can’t believe they didn’t get
a clear shot of him in any of those pictures.  It’s easy to tell that the
photographer and editor were both men.  I know damn well that Jack had his
bare ass in front of that window, too.

Jack

The strain in my pants was becoming almost unbearable by the
time Gerard finally knocked on our door.  After a quick adjustment, I
greeted him and gave him a nice tip in exchange for Ahi Tuna Tartare, Kobe Beef
Sliders, and a bottle of Dom Perignon, along with Godiva truffles and a double
shot of Hennessy Ellipse for dessert.

“It started out kind of healthy, but then a few cravings hit
while they were taking my order,” I confessed as I set our tray down next to
the Jacuzzi.

“I don’t mind.” She smiled.  “I haven’t eaten much the
past couple of days other than breakfast this morning.”

She didn’t waste any time before popping a dark chocolate
truffle into her mouth, so I uncorked the champagne and poured her a glass to
complement it.  As I shed my clothes, I couldn’t help smiling at the
thought of spending another romantic and sensual night with Kate in this incredible
suite.  She had the most radiant smile, which perfectly offset her
mischievous eyes.

“This reminds me of our first business meeting,” I teased as
I slipped into the tub and swept her up in my arms.

“I was just thinking the same thing.  That was the best
cheeseburger and fries ever.” 

I love it when she giggles like that.
  “Cheers,”
I said grabbing my glass.

“What are we toasting?”

“I think we should toast to the beginning of a beautiful
life together.”

Small tears began to form in the corners of her eyes as she
held up her glass and clinked it against mine. 

“I really appreciate what you said to the reporters and
photographers this morning.  Do you really think I can heal your heart?”
she asked.

“My heart has been healing since the day you came into my life. 
Hopefully those stem cells will be able to do the rest.”

“I’ll toast to that…”

Kate

That night was the happiest I had seen Jack in the entire
time we had been together.  He was relaxed and didn’t seem to be
distracted by anything going on in the back of his mind.  The Ahi tuna and
Kobe beef were definitely good choices, but the champagne and truffles were my
favorites.  I have never had much of a sweet tooth, but it felt as if I
was becoming addicted to dark chocolate with champagne. 
This must be
how Jack feels about beef.  I wonder how many calories are in each
truffle.  I have a feeling I’m better off not knowing.

“What are you thinking about?” Jack asked, breaking my
chocolate fixation.

“I think I’m becoming addicted to dark chocolate and
champagne.  How many calories do you think are in one of these truffles?”

“I’m going to say 10 calories each, so you can enjoy as many
as you want,” he replied with his usual smirk.

“That’s not even close.  It’s probably closer to 100.”

“You have nothing to worry about, Kate.  If I find you
on the couch in the middle of the day with a box of truffles and a bottle of
champagne, then we’ll discuss it.”

That’s funny.  That’s exactly what I wanted to do
yesterday instead of going to the office to meet with Brenda. 
I popped
another truffle into my mouth and slowly began to push Jack back to the corner
of the Jacuzzi.

“Now what do you want to do?” I asked, giving him the
naughtiest look I could muster.

“I don’t know, I’m feeling pretty tired.” 

Without saying a word, I reached down between his
legs.  “It doesn’t feel like you’re tired,” I replied after finding
exactly what I had expected. 

Jack just smiled and sat up on the edge of the tub after I
coaxed him with a tug.  Suddenly my focus had shifted from chocolates and
champagne to much more carnal urges.  After stroking his beautiful cock
several times, I softly kissed the tip and let my tongue glide slowly all the
way down his shaft until I reached his balls.  He moaned in appreciation
as I teased each of his balls with the tip of my tongue before working my way
back to the tip.

When I pulled his cock toward me, I knew he was expecting me
to become more aggressive but that was not in my plan.  I had every
intention of making this last for awhile.  I planned to tease him until he
couldn’t take anymore, and then I wanted him to completely ravish me.  I
could hear the frustration building as I slowly drew his engorged head into my
mouth, using my lips to caress his soft skin and my tongue to tease
him.   Each time he began to respond, I would pull back and softly
kiss the length of his shaft once again.

Normally Jack would’ve only allowed me to do this a few
times before scooping me up in his arms and having his way with me.  This
time, however, he seemed content to simply enjoy it and let me have my
fun.  I gave him several firm strokes with one hand, while caressing his
balls with the other. 
That got a more intense response from him.
 
Once again, I reverted to teasing his head with my lips and tongue while
continuing to massage his balls softly.  After a few more minutes of this,
Jack finally reached his breaking point.

“Alright, that’s all I can take,” he said standing up and
pulling me to my feet.

Jack exited the Jacuzzi with me in his arms and made a
beeline to the bedroom.  Still dripping wet, he reached down with one hand
and literally threw the covers off the bed.  He then laid both of us down
and gave me a subtle growl to let me know his state of mind. 
I’ve done
my job.

Jack

This woman drives me crazy.  Watching her
magnificent performance from above was an incredible turn on.  Now it’s my
turn.  
After a long slow sensuous kiss, I asked Kate to roll
onto her stomach.  I allowed my dick to slide along the back of her smooth
legs as I kissed the nape of her neck and nibbled on her earlobe.  The
subtle scent of her perfume still lingered. 
I just love the way her
skin smells and tastes.
  I moved along her back, kissing my way down
her spine.    As I reached her smooth, silky bottom, I pulled
back and began to caress her with my hands instead.  Running them slowly
up and down her back at first; then allowing them to drift over her nicely
rounded ass. 
I still can’t get over her amazing muscle tone.  I
love what yoga does for her.

She let out a sigh of pleasure as I massaged her left
hamstring and calf, working my way down to her sweet little feet.  “That’s
almost orgasmic,” she purred as I kneaded the ball and arch of her foot. 
After completing the other foot, I began working my way back up her right leg. 
Spreading her legs further apart, I slid my legs beneath hers and sat in
between them.  I began to massage her beautiful bottom, while occasionally
letting my fingers to lightly stray between her legs.  Her silky, smooth
pussy lips already glistened, a telltale sign of her state of arousal. 
I
just love being naked with her.

As I continued to caress her, my attention moved from her
gorgeous ass and legs to parts that are more intimate.  Sliding my middle
finger between her wet folds, I softly began to stroke the length of
them.  She began to moan once again as I slowly worked my fingers up and
down the length of her slit.  Each time I came to her clit, I would softly
glide my finger over the top of it before taking another slow, luxurious
stroke.  After a few minutes of this, my fingers penetrated her, and she
immediately arched her back to ensure that I hit the right spot.  With
each circular stroke, I could feel the little bumps rising up as she began to
move her hips from side to side.

“God I love how you do that,” she said through her
moans.  “You need to put that big cock inside me.”

I had been thinking the same thing, as I, too, had begun to
feel my pulse between my legs.  However, I gave her G-spot several more
firm strokes until she began to squirm.

“Stop, Jack… I’m going to come…”

That’s exactly my intention. 
Lifting up my
knees and holding her in place with my free arm, I continued to increase the
intensity.  She squirmed and gasped as I pushed her past the point of no
return.  As she lay there catching her breath, I suddenly realized that I
was still trying to prove my virility to her.  I didn’t want her to treat
me differently as a result of learning about my heart condition, but the past
two nights I had actually been overcompensating for myself.  I pulled my
legs out from under hers and lay down next to her.  I softly ran my hand
along the curves of her back.

“That was definitely intense,” she said obviously still in
recovery mode.

“I’m sorry if I got carried away.”

“No, it’s fine.  It’s not like I didn’t enjoy it,” she
replied with an endorphin fueled smile and a glazed look in her eyes.  “I
guess I was just hoping you would make love to me in the Jacuzzi the way you
did the last time we were in there.”

My mind was instantly transported back to the night that Kate
returned from Allentown.  That night had been emotionally charged by the
fact that we were both struggling to rationalize our relationship.  It was
hard to believe how much had changed since then.  The fact that we were
past such a major mental hurdle should have been momentous, but my heart issues
had simply replaced it. 
It’s just another hurdle,
I thought, as I
planned my next move.

Kate

Jack looked as if he had to process my words. Then he
scooped me up once again and returned to the Jacuzzi.  I was hoping for a
repeat of the most incredible sexual experience of my life, as he sat me down
on the edge of the tub.  I slid into the water in an attempt to warm up a
bit before taking my place on the ledge in the opposite corner facing the
mirrors.

“You are simply amazing,” Jack cooed, as he cranked on the
hot water before emerging from the water behind me.

Jack slowly kissed and probed his way past all of my
sensitive areas. 
He has such an amazing tongue. 
He then
positioned
himself so that I could just barely feel the tip of his cock against me. 
He held my hips in that teasing position as he kissed me from behind and ran
his tongue along the base of my neck.  I pushed down on him, anxious to
get him inside me.  Unfortunately, Jack adjusted just as quickly and began
to ravish the side of my neck with his hot lips and tongue.

“You are such a fucking tease…. I shouldn’t let you get away
with it.”

Jack simply snickered as he wrapped his arms around me and
pulled me back into the now steaming bath water.  He reached over to cut
the water, but I was more focused on the fact that his cock was now buried deep
within me.

“We’re going to have to take it slow,” he said, as our now
submerged bodies caused the water level to come within an inch of the top of
the tub.

I grabbed hold of his thighs from above and began to rock my
hips up and down.  He instantly grabbed both my wrists and wrapped both of
our arms around me.  As he began to move me up and down just slightly, I
remembered that it was the slow, subtle motion that had driven me mad the last
time.

“I love how it feels to be inside you,” he whispered.

“Mmmm, I love how you feel inside me,” I whispered back,
already feeling breathless.

He held me so tight that all I could do was succumb to the
rhythm of his motions.  Conceding, I began to focus on the incredible
fullness deep within me.  Once again, I began to flex my inner muscles
providing additional friction.  That did not go unnoticed by Jack. 
He let out a groan almost immediately, before slowing to an even more subtle
pace. 
He’s determined to make this last…
