A Night's Stand

Chapter5

“I don’t understand? on what charges?” Harry asked

“He has been accused of r**e and murder. It turns out he sexually assaulted his neighbor, got her pregnant, and gave her pills for an abortion which made her bleed to death,” the police officer replied.

At that point, everyone there was shocked by what they just heard, most especially Harry. He knew how Eugene was around women, but he didn’t know it had gotten to that extent.

“Yolanda lead the officers to Eugene’s office,” Harry instructed.

He felt guilty because he had let Eugene get away with all his crimes, now look at what just happened. In no time the officers and Yolanda came to the reception with Eugene in handcuffs.

Harry asked them for a minute to talk to him.

“Man, what did you do?” Harry asked Eugene.

“I did what needed to be done,” Eugene said with a wicked smile breaking out. It was more than clear that he was psychopathic.

“Take him away!” one of the officers commanded.

Hope and Harry went back to Harry’s office and Harry began to narrate how he and Eugene became friends. He said that they had been best friends since high school and he never would have thought this was going to be how the friendship ended.

Hope tried to present herself as if she cared about Eugene but deep down she was happy.

The company remained dead silent till the end of the day and also till the end of the week.

“I’m not saying thank God that the girl died but I’m saying sacrifices had to be made for them to detain that delinquent,” Linda said while she was doing her laundry.

“It’s Harry. I've been feeling bad since the whole saga happened. He has not been to the company since that Tuesday,” Hope said to Linda while cleaning the windows.

The two girls were doing their regular weekend chores when they were talking about the whole Eugene saga.

“I don’t feel any pity for that evil man. I thought you said he was smiling when the police came to arrest him,” Linda added

Just as Hope was about to respond to Linda, her phone began to ring.

“Harry?”

It was Harry that was calling. She hadn’t heard from him since the day of Eugene’s arrest.

“Hello, boss.”

“Hi Hope, how are you doing?”

“I’m doing well, how about you? We haven’t heard from you in the office for a while.”

“Oh, it’s nothing. I was simply trying to organize some things.”

“That’s nice. So what’s the purpose of this call boss?”

“Well, I was wondering if you could come to my place today, you know, to talk business and stuff.”

“It’s the weekend but I’ll be there in an hour or two.”

“Okay, see you then”

call ends

“Ouu, from what I overheard someone’s weekend is about to get busy,” Linda said teasingly.

“It’s nothing like that Mel, it’s just work.”

“Yeah, it’s work so go get ready,” Linda said teasingly again

“I hate you,” Hope said to Linda jokingly

“I know you love me, duh.”

*********************************************

“Hey Hope,” Harry said while welcoming Hope to his mansion.

“Hi, Harry. I wasn’t expecting you to be the one that’ll be opening the doors of your home.”

“I gave everyone a day off”

“That’s nice.”

Harry offered Hope a drink but she declined, so he decided to drink all alone. Hope on the other hand was more concerned about why Harry called her to come over to discuss ‘business’ during the weekend at his house and why he gave the rest of his staff a day off.

“Hope, why didn’t you tell me that you were almost assaulted by that prick named Eugene,” Harry said.

“I didn’t see any need in telling anyone what I went through, especially you, boss,” Hope replied.

“You could have told me, I would have defended you against that bastard.”

“I don’t understand why all of a sudden you’re acting like you care when almost a week ago you treated me like I was a cheap girl from a brothel.”

“I would never do that to you, I do care about you,” Harry uttered as he twirled her hair.

He leaned in closer and whispered to her, "You're beautiful." At that point, Hope wanted Harry just as badly as he wanted her.

Harry traces her neck with wet soft kiss as he inhales her flowery scent. He wraps his arm around her waist pulling her closer.

They lock eyes, there was nothing but the flames of passion.

Harry slips his hands inside her top making it's way to cup his feel. Hope moans as he fondles her perfectly shaped breasts

Hope became restless, all she could think about was taking things to the next level.

"I'm dripping wet already... Take me." She whispered.

Harry leads her to the master's bedroom and as soon as the door was shut, they resumed their dance.

Hope helped Harry unbutton his shirt revealing his broad and well built chest. She traces his chest with kisses from top to bottom until she was on her knees.

"Let's see what you have over here." She unbuckled his belt before pulling his pants down.

Hope gasped as a mighty shadow covered her face. It was such a sight, she couldn't help but gulp.

Just as she was about to reach for the mighty beast, she looked at Harry.

"Is this going to be a one-time thing or..."

"I want to make love to you everywhere. Be my woman, Hope."

That was all she needed to hear.....

"Siri, set the tune please." His home speakers started playing slow jazz music as they continued from where they stopped.

That night, They did it 4 times, Hope had never been pleased by a man the way Harry did her.

The next morning, she wakes up with a smile all over her face seeing him Harry on the bed, he was working on his laptop.

"Jeez, you're a workaholic."

"Good morning to you too." He joked.

"Last night was..."

"Magical," He finished her sentence. "What are your plans for the weekend?"

"Nothing much really, why?"

"Let's go to France."
