Her Demon Lover Trilogy (Erotic Romance Series) (3 page)

              “I’m not sure. There are a
few out that sound pretty good.  Did you have any that you wanted to see
badly?”  She asked him.

              “To tell you the truth I’m
not really into anything romantic, unless it’s a true comedy as well.  But I
could enjoy either Batman or Avengers.”  He smiled.

              “I like Batman too. He’s
always in the shadows!  Let’s go see that one.”

After the decision had been made, the
rest of the night was spent learning a bit more about one another.  As the
evening wore on, Sandy became a lot more relaxed, even opening up a little more
to Jack then she had expected.

He paid for dinner and bought the
tickets for the movie.  Sandy felt bad. She hadn’t invited him out so he could
pay for it all.

              “If you want anything to
drink I’ll buy it.”  She told him.

              “No, I’m good, but if you
want something let me know.” 

              “I’m good. I just don’t
want you to think I planned on you paying for everything.”

              “Hey I’m the guy, aren’t
we supposed to do that?”  He laughed.

              “Alright.”

After the movie was over they both
glowed about how good it was, and what they thought would happen next.

              “Do you think they’ll do a
Batman and Robin movie next?”  Sandy asked him.

              “Well I’m not sure, but it
would be really cool if they did!”

              “Yeah they could go so
many ways with it!”

            “I’m really looking forward
to the new Superman movie. I sure hope they didn’t mess it up like the last
one.”  He commented.

              “I know. It was really
bad.”

              “Who would have ever
guessed you were into super heroes?” 

              “No one ever tried to get
to know me, well I didn’t help that out by just hiding away either I know.  But
after so many times of being bullied, it just wasn’t worth taking a chance on
people.”

              “I really wish I would
have gotten to know you when we were in high school, you’re a really cool
woman, though you would have been a girl at that time.  I’m sure you were just
as interesting!”  He smiled broadly.

              “Yeah, it would have been
nice!”

              “It’s been really nice. Would
you like to go out again?”  He asked her.

              “I think I’d really like
that.” 

              “I’ll give you a call. I
want to plan something special.”

              “Alright!”

Getting home Sandy reflected on the
night, it had been one of the best of her life, Jack had been a really nice
guy.  The fact that he said he’d wished they had known each other better in
school had made her smile.

Knowing that tomorrow would be busy at
work, she tried to wind down quickly.  Falling asleep with a smile on her face
for the first time in sometime, she dreamed of the fabulous night her and Jack
had on their date.

Getting up late the next morning she
rushed to make it into work, and wondered what the people in the office would
think of her new figure?

              “Good morning Mr. Johnson,
did you have a good vacation?”  Sandy asked her boss.

              “I had a lovely time,
thanks for asking! Did you have a nice vacation too?”  He smiled at her.

              “Yes, thanks I appreciate
it!” 

              “You look like you’ve lost
quite a bit of weight.” 

              “A bit, thanks for
noticing!”

              “We have to do your yearly
review this week, remind me please.”

              “I will, I almost have it
typed up.”  Sandy chuckled.

              “Sorry I know it makes no
sense to have you type it up and then do the whole face to face thing.  But to
tell you the truth, I can’t type worth a lick, and it would be another year
before I got it done!”

              “It’s fine really Mr.
Johnson.”

              “Tell you what call me
Shawn!” 

              “Mr. Johnson that’s not
professional enough, I’m sorry.”

              “You are quite the
stickler for the rules.”

Sandy went to work, but she noticed how
many times Mr. Johnson came out to just talk to her, not about anything in
general.  She also noticed the looks he was giving her, and wanted to avoid
anything that might be inappropriate.

              “How would you like to go
out for lunch?”  He asked her.

              “I would, but I’m trying
to catch up on a few things, thanks for the offer though.”

              “Sure, would you like me
to bring you something back?”

              “Maybe just a raspberry
tea, if you don’t mind.”

              “Not a problem.”

She went back to work after he walked
out the door.  That was way too odd, he’d never asked her to lunch before, and
Sandy was sure that lunch would have led to more personal things being talked
about. 

A few minutes later she was shocked to
see him walk in the door.  He was carrying some bags, and took them into the
conference room.

              “Since you didn’t want to
go out, I’ve brought lunch in!” 

              “Honestly, well okay!”

              “I hope you like Greek
food.”

              “I’ve never tried any of
it to tell you the truth.”

              “Great, it’s fine.  I
won’t let you eat anything too bad.”  He laughed.

Sitting down, he placed a few things on
a plate, telling her what each of them were.  He placed the plate in front of
her and smiled.  “I hope you enjoy.”

              “Thank you very much.” 

Sandy was surprised at how good the food
was, trying each of the items he’d given her.  “This is really good.”

              “Yes Greek food is good,
I’m glad you like it.  So tell me Sandy are you seeing anyone?”

She was shocked by the personal
question.

              “Well I had a nice date
with a guy from school, I don’t know if it will work out or not, but we have
another date.”

              “Oh, well, if you want to
we could maybe go to Louis this weekend?” 

              “I don’t know if it’s such
a good idea to go out, after all you are my boss.”

              “It’s not a date, just a
get to know each other thing.”

              “Mr. Johnson, we can talk
here, I really don’t think going out on a weekend is wise.”

              “How about if I told you
if you didn’t I’d fire you?”

              “What?  You’d fire me for
not going out with you?”

              “No, I wouldn’t.  But I
wish you’d think about it.”

              “I’ll consider it.”

              “Good.”

Sandy sat there eating the food.  She
didn’t really like this at all, but he had said he wouldn’t really fire her. 
However, the fact that he had even said it made her a bit nervous.  She would
just have to keep putting him off though, she knew that going out with him,
even if he said it wasn’t a date just wasn’t very wise.

Before leaving she avoided Mr. Johnson
so she wouldn’t have to ignore his advances anymore, it had become quite
irritating during the work day.  She stopped at the store to pick up a few
items, getting up to the register Sandy placed her few items on the belt.

              “Is that all for you today
miss?”  The young cashier asked her.

              “Yes, thank you.”

              “I’ve got some great news
for you, today you are the 100
^th
customer and that means you get
everything free.” 

              “Wow, really?  That’s very
cool.”  Sandy was shocked.

              “Congrats, have a nice
night.”

As Sandy was walking out she saw the
young male place his own money in the register.  That’s odd she thought, but
wasn’t sure if it was because of her items or not.

Walking to her bedroom, still a bit
preoccupied with everything that had gone on today, she jumped at a knock on
the door.

Opening the door, there stood a delivery
man with a bouquet of flowers.

              “Ms. Sandy Collins?”  He
asked.

              “Yes, that’s me.” 

              “Here I have a few more
items in the van for you.”  He handed her the bouquet and walked back to his
truck. 

Coming back in had another two vases,
both with red roses in them.  “Thanks.”  Sandy said, and began to close the
door.

              “Ma’am I’m not done yet, I
have a few more still.”

              “How many are a few
more?” 

              “Two more vases.”  He
answered and walked away to get the other two vases.

              “Here you are.”  The young
delivery man came up with the two other vases, and another bouquet.

              “I thought you said there
were only two more vases?”  She questioned him.

              “I had an extra one in the
van, and you’re so beautiful I wanted to give you one myself.  There’s a card
there with my number on, give me a call sometime and we’ll go out on the
town.”  He smiled and left.

Sandy looked at the other flowers and
cards. They were from her boss Mr. Johnson with a note about going out on the
weekend. 

The third one was the one she enjoyed
the most though, it was from Jack. 

              “Had a blast going out,
looking forward to next time.  Pick you up at six tomorrow night!  Jack.”

She smiled about that one, in truth it
would have been the only one she wished to get. 

Going into the bathroom, she looked into
the mirror.  It looked like she’d lost a few more pounds from the day before.

Jumping on the scale, she looked down to
see it at 165.  “Wow another ten pounds, I kind of like this!”

Getting into the shower, she turned the
water on warm and let it glide over her body.  It felt great, washing away all
the stress from the day, and any thought of the flowers.  The only thing that
was on her mind was the next date with Jack, and that was the very next night. 
Though her mind would still go back to that first time she’d had sex, when the
demon had raped her.  There was a part of her that had enjoyed it too much, or
so she felt.

Sandy sat thinking about calling off
sick the next day, but knew it wouldn’t go over really well.  Plus her own
ethics wouldn’t allow her to be so deceitful.  Instead she would just find ways
to put off Mr. Johnson about the weekend.

Sandy laughed, if he was as persistent
tomorrow as he had been today, she would have to turn him down at least ten
times.  She had to laugh a bit harder at this thought, because in the past this
much attention from most men would have pleased her.

The next morning came too quickly, her
sleep had been unpleasant too, she’d dreamed of all these men chasing her
through the streets.  No matter how many times she’d tell them no, they would
just keep coming.

She remembered Mr. Johnson from the
dream, the flower guy, and even a few people she’d seen in the grocery store
the day before.  In the background she’d seen the demon laughing at the mess
she’d created by her desire’s to be irresistible.

Sandy hoped today would go quickly at
work and that tonight with Jack would be as nice as the very first date.

              “Sandy, good morning.  Did
you get the flowers?”  Mr. Johnson said before she had placed her purse inside
her desk.

              “Yes, thank you very
much.” 

              “So have you thought about
it yet?”

              “I have another date
tonight with the guy I was talking about yesterday.  Let’s just wait and see
how that one goes.” 

              “Oh.”  He said.

If that was the only time today he
bugged her Sandy would be thrilled, but she was sure it would not end up being
that way at all.  Sure enough he came back from lunch and handed her a small
package.

              “What’s this for?”  Sandy
asked him, looked at the little package that was wrapped nicely.  It looked
like it had come from Niemen Marcus.

              “Just something I picked
up at lunch for you.” 

              “I can’t accept this Mr.
Johnson.” 

              “Nonsense, it’s for all
the hard work you’ve done for me through this past year.”

Sandy knew it wasn’t worth fighting over
the fact of whether or not to open it.  She pulled the paper open and the box
to find a beautiful and very expensive diamond bracelet.
