Secret Desire Ch. 08

"What have you been up to?" asked Howard.

"You don't wanna know." said Katy.

"OK, now I have to know." he said leaning in.

The girls laughed and Howard joined in. Katy smiled and leaned into him and brushed up against his shoulder, "Sure..." said Katy. It seemed like her hand was under the table, and Katy whispered, loud enough that the rest of them could hear, "We'll tell you on one of our special celebrations." She said.

Malini blushed as she held her gaze at Howard and him at her. She broke the gaze and turned to find Cindy grinning and wink at her.

"Well if that's the case, then I can arrange for it tonight." Howard announced.

"Sure, we don't mind." Said Cindy. "And, she's gotta be with us too." she said pointing her fork at Malini.

Malini felt her heart flutter and her breathing almost instantly heightened. And just then his phone rang. "Saved by the bell." Said Katy as he got up left women by themselves.

"What are you doing?" asked Malini, smacking Cindy.

"What?" said Cindy alarmed by the sudden smack on her arm, "I thought you liked him." She said.

"I'm a married woman." Said Malini.

"Oh come on." Said Cindy.

"I'm serious." Said Malini but still unable to hide the glimmering smile at the corner of her lips.

"Sure, but that didn't stop you from letting the man grope you all day, yesterday." Cindy said.

"Hey, that's different." Malini defended herself and yet the smile grew wider.

"Come on." Said Katy. "It's practically plastered all over your face."

Malini blushed again and downed her drink. "But I can't."

"Oh stop being such a prude." Cindy leaned in dragging her chair closer to Malini. Only to have Katy do the same almost immediately. "Haven't you ever cheated before?" she asked.

"Hey, that's not the point." Malini said.

"So you have." Katy grinned and winked at Cindy. Malini smacked her on the arm, "If you've done it once, you can do it again. Except this time, it's gonna be a lot more fun. We'll be there too."

"Yes" said Cindy, "This is our own little paradise island, you can do whatever you want. For as long as this trip goes, the three of us can have so much fun." She said.

"And add Howard into the mix." Said Katy. "You'd love him. He's got such a beautiful cock." Katy smiled as she slumped back on her chair. The very thought of it excited her. "It's so big." She said with her face in her palm and wide grinning smile.

"I know." said Malini with a sly grin. She remembered the time she caught him on the boat. She wasn't close enough to see how big he was but she did this morning. And she fought the urge to want it. To touch it. One of the toughest things she's ever done.

"What do you mean you know?" asked Katy.

"Feeling it through his pants is a whole other thing, honey." Said Cindy. "That doesn't count."

"I mean, I've seen it." Malini confessed.

"When?" the girls asked in unison.

"This morning, actually." Malini winked at them.

"What? How?" they asked.

"Well I was on the couch when I woke up, this morning." Malini began. "I walked into the bedroom and found you..." she said looking at Katy. "On the floor half naked. And you..." she said turning to Cindy. "In bed with him, completely naked."

"But he wasn't there that morning when I woke up, this morning." Said Cindy. "And I was under the sheets."

"Well, you were under the sheets with him, but I pulled it off." Malini confessed.

"Naughty, naughty." Said Katy.

"Well?" said the girls in unison.

"Well, it's definitely big. And definitely one of the biggest I've seen." Malini laughed, as the girls broke in.

"You are going to love him." Cindy said.

"I don't know, I've haven't thought about it yet." Malini said, "So, just drop it for now."

"Ok, fine." said Katy. "But if you do end up in bed with him..."

"It's more of a question of when, Katy." Cindy said laughing.

"Yeah that's right... When, you finally end up in bed with him. Luckily, us. You're gonna regret not having done it sooner." Katy spoke, "And we'll be there to tell you, I told you so." She laughed.

Malini rolled her eyes and shook her head as she nursed her drink. When Katy said that, the first thing she could think of was, when she said the exact same thing to Kevin, on Thanksgiving. She couldn't help but wonder how he's been doing? It's been a while since she saw him. She's only called her husband a couple times since she left home. Once on the boat and once the morning after, half asleep.

Just then Howard came over and informed that he can't make it to the golf course and wants the girls to head to the range and hang out. And that he'd meet them later.

He took turns hugging the girls and when it was Malini's turn he just smiled, "Oh did you know, that she's seen you naked?" said Katy.

Malini was shocked and smacked her on the arm. "Shut up." She almost yelled, unable to hide her grin

What was even more shocking was, when Howard, said. "I know." and walked away offering her a wink. And when he was at a distance he turned to Cindy and smiled, "You better be practicing. I need the three of you in shape by the end of next week." She said and disappeared. In shape, for what? Malini wondered. Clearly all this was heading towards something, something she was now a part of but didn't know. But she didn't pry on asking anything. She knew everything would reveal itself eventually.

The girls spent the day at the golf course, specifically at the driving range. They've been practicing their drives and Malini was seemingly a lot better than she was the day before. They had a light lunch at the club before they resumed shooting at the range.

And a little later after the sun was half way down, it was Malini's turn again. And she felt a pat on her right butt cheek. She looked over her shoulder to find Howard. "What did I tell you about your posture." He said as he eased in behind her and wrapped himself over her.

Malini couldn't hide her grin of joy from seeing him again. She missed him. A slight blush filled her cheek and once again, she felt the comfort of being in his arms. The feeling of being safe. The feeling of knowing that there's nothing that could harm her as long as she was right there, in his arms. She looked over her shoulder and smiled, their eyes and lips an inch away. "Well then you shouldn't have left, then. You should have stayed to teach me." She teased.

Every interaction between the two has been bolder every time. Ever since he's told her the story about his family and how he came to become rich. She's felt a lot closer to him. And yet she knew nothing about him.

Howard smiled, "If I stayed here with you, who's going to take care of my businesses?" he asked, "Clearly, you don't want to." He shot.

Malini took the shot with a smile. She arched her back and eased into his frame and leaned into his cheek. She felt his lightly grown salt and pepper scruff against her cheek and let out a soft moan. Soft enough that only he could have heard her. "Don't you have people to do that?" She said moving her feet to the position and arching her back enough, that she felt his thick member twitching and placed it right between her butt cheeks.

Howard leaned in and pushed into her butt as he wiggled and found room to take some control. "I do. But I just wish they looked a lot more like you." He said with a grin as he leaned into her neck nuzzling his cheek against hers and his chin against her neck and shoulder, "Which is why I offered you the job." She said. As he helped her take the drive. The ball went flying.

And like clockwork, they were back in position.

Malini smiled and positioned herself once again in his arms like she did before only to arch her back and give the man more room. Howard took the que and pushed himself forward and squeezed in against her butt until he heard a moan. "I'm the kind of person you'd want working with you, not working for you, Howard." She said, only to realize, this was the first time she addressed him by his name.

"And why is that?" he asked her as he wrapped his arm around her completely. Malini held the golf club against her and she felt the cold metal of the club against her thighs.

"Coz, I'm capable of more than what's offered from a job." She said. "

She felt a kiss against her shoulder blade, closer to her neck and smiled. For a moment she had forgotten that they were at a public place. She didn't care. Her eyes shut and she let out a soft moan. "You're going to have to be a lot more specific." He said. "What do you mean more?"

Malini giggled as she felt his scruff, tickle. "I guess you'll find out the more time you spend with me." She said.

Howard let go of her and watched her bed back over in position for the next drive. He stood right behind her and held her hips gripping it against his crotch. She rearranged her feet and wiggled her butt, just to tease him and went for it. The ball went flying, once again.

"And that's how you drive a ball." He said as she turned to face him.

The two stood grinning at each other. She knew that he wanted her. She wanted him too, but she didn't want Kevin finding out about it. Coz she knew if Kevin found out, he'd break the news to her family. Her family always was and will be everything to her.

And just then, Howard got another call and told them that he'll seeing them back at the hotel. Which he never did. The girls met him later that morning for breakfast and after a short while, he disappeared again. But every time they met, the flirting became a lot more open and physically they continued to break one barrier after another.

The same continued for a couple more days. Where she spent most of the days laughing and playing with the girls, fooling around mostly. She got pretty good by the week. And was in expected shape a lot sooner than expected. Malini was as good as Cindy and Katy were.

It's been exactly a week since she's left home and hadn't talked to Kevin or Madhan in a while. She woke up earlier than usual for some reason and found Cindy and Katy sound asleep. She decided to call home and nobody picked up the phone. She tried after a taking a shower and still no answer. When Madhan finally called her it was 9 in the morning. Malini was furious.

She argued with her husband about why he hadn't attend to her when she called. She argued for about an hour and decided to get ready for the day.

She a little went and dry all at once. She found Howard at the door. Both the girls were still asleep for some reason. She was still in her towel. She welcomed him in. She laughed at herself for arguing about her husband not picking her call less than an hour ago, but let in a man into her hotel room, practically naked.

She excused to go get dressed but he smiled and grabbed her by the hand and led her out of her suite. She protested, "Stop it, what are you doing?" she said. I don't want people looking at me like this."

"There's no one but us on this floor." He said.

Malini was a little impressed by his quality in discretion. She smiled and followed him with a smile on her face. He led her into his suite. The place wasn't a lot different from the one she was in. She walked right in through the living room. This place had a mini bar set up on the corner. And a game room and a bedroom. The bedroom was a lot larger than the one she shared with the girls.

"Wow, this place a lot larger than the one we're in." she said.

"It is?" he joked.

Malini playfully scorned at him and broke into a smile as she walked right into his bedroom. He had a large bed. One of the largest beds she's ever seen. All four of them could sleep on it with extra room to stretch.

He walked right over to her and stood right behind her and placed both his hands on her hips and leaned in to kiss her neck. She smiled and moaned softly. "I guess I know what part of this room you like the best." He said between the kisses.

"And what is that?" she asked.

Howard laughed and stepped away from her and opened the wardrobe. He had a whole line of women's clothes. "They're all your size and would fit you perfectly. If any of them don't, they can be altered." He said.

Malini was surprised by what she was looking at. There were close to a hundred different dresses. "All this?" she said still in shock.

"Yes." He said. "For you." He repeated.

"Why?" she asked.

"Well, it's been a week since you came into my possession." He said. Malini smiled to his words and turned to him. With her hand on her hips. "I believe a celebration's in order." He said.

Malini watched the guy inch her with a big grin across his face and stop right in front of her. He placed his hand over her cheek and let his fingers slide along the nape of her neck before letting the weight of it to fall down to her shoulder and chest.

She didn't worry about what he was doing. She didn't care anymore. Their little charade need to come to an end at some point. "Well how are we celebrating?" she teased. As she swayed her hips and looked up at him.

He smiled and placed a hand on her free hip and leaned past her. He reached for a dark blue floral printed swing dress. It was a lot V cut and he handed it to her.

"Get dressed." He said. And just before he left her side, he grabbed the towel and yanked it off her. He watched her features jiggle as she thrashed in surprise.

"I'll get you for that." She said.

"Hey, you've already seen me naked." He said peeking through the door before he shut it behind him.

She slipped in almost immediately. She pulled open a drawer and found everything she needed was already there. There were different types of earing and shoes. And an entire closet full of expensive lingerie.

She browsed through them and only came to realize that they were all her size too. She couldn't help but smile. She felt a tingle between her legs. She couldn't possibly be more excited. She couldn't remember the last time a man treated her like this. And to think that this was just the beginning of the day.

She slipped on a pair of the most beautiful pair of panties. She stepped into a pair of stilettos and stepped out. Howard absorbed the sight of her and took her out immediately. He then drove over to a small restaurant in the outskirts and asked what he thought of the place.

"Do you own this one too?" she asked.

"No, I don't." he chuckled.

"Why not?" she asked him.

Howard laughed, "I can't own every restaurant in the place."

"For a moment I thought you did." Malini teased.

"Wouldn't that be nice." He said.

"I don't know." she teased, "You practically own everything else here."

"Well, not everything." He said as his eyes wandered down her neck.

"Well you've had me for a week now." She smirked.

"And yet..." he stopped as he let the word linger.

"And yet, what?" she asked.

"You didn't make a move." He said.

"I could say the same." She laughed.

"Most women I bring on my trip usually end up in bed with me by the end of the day." He said.

"Well I'm not like most women." She said.

"I can see that."

"So..." she said as she leaned back and took in the beautiful view, "Why do you bring the women on such an expensive trip anyways?" she asked.

He laughed at first. And took a sip of water. "Why are you laughing?" she asked.

"You're literally the first person to ever ask me that." He said. "And from what I see the first woman I've seen who has something she values more than money."

"How do you figure?" She said.

"Well, if it was all about the money, you probably wouldn't have rejected my offer." He said.

"What if I did all that to get you to do this for me?" she teased.

"If you did, you won't still be teasing me. And we won't be here talking."

"And where would we be?" she asked

"We would have never left my suite." He said.

"Why?" she queued.

"Coz if you were into my money, you would have caved in to the lifestyle and let me have you days ago." He said. "You'd probably be in my bed squirming as I destroy your pussy."

His absolute carefree choice of words only turned her on for some reason. It was like she somehow knew that he was a savage in bed. And would treat her no less.

"What makes you think I don't want that?" she asked boldly.

"You do." He said. "And I know you do. But I wanna know why you haven't done anything to get it, yourself." He said.

"That's because that's not what I agreed to go on this trip for." She said. "This was supposed to be an educational trip. Something where I'd learn more about the restaurant business. But all I've done so far was learn how to play the one game I've hated for years." She said.

"And yet you tried. You worked and got good at it." He said.

"Only because I still believe that you'd hold up your end of the deal." She said.

"And what is that?"

"Let me cook." She said. She didn't say that he'd offer her the money to start a business. Or show her the way of running a business. She said cook.

"If cooking is all you want, then why a business?" he asked. "You can come cook for me."

"A business was never really my intention. In fact, I didn't even think about a potential business in the food industry until Kevin proposed the idea." She said.

Howard fell silent for a moment, he then leaned in over the table. "Are you sleeping with him?" he asked.

Malini was a little self-conscious. She liked him. But she knew nothing about his business or the kind of person he is when it comes to money. And yet she felt close enough to confess. "Yes." She said crossing her legs and turning away from him. Almost like she was a little disappointed in herself.

"So, let me get this straight." Said Howard, "He proposed the idea to start a pastry shop. Gave you the taste of money and then brought me into the picture. And now escalated the whole thing into setting up a restaurant." Howard began shaking his head and started laughing softly.

"What?" she said, confused, "Why are you laughing." And what did he mean when he said that Kevin escalated the idea into setting up a restaurant. She was under the impression that the restaurant was Howard's idea.

"Do you even know why, you're here?" he asked her.

"What do you mean?" she said, suddenly she felt like she has been lied to and nothing was what it seemed.

"Do you remember the time when we first met?" He said.

"Yes." She said, "Back at you apartment... Penthouse... Whatever you call that place. Yes." She laughed softly. "Why?"

"Ever since I first laid eyes on you I've wanted you. I've thought about having you in my bed. Tasting you, every inch of your body."

"And I'm supposed to be flattered?" she said, listening to everything he said in graphic detail.

"You would be if you weren't someone with a certain morals in life." He said. "But that's not the point."

"Well, then what is?" she said. "Coz I'm a little taken by everything your saying. You're being too vague and I don't think I understand where you're getting at." She said.

Howard didn't want to waste any more time. "Look." He said leaning back against his chair. "What I'm about to tell you is probably a lot to take for a person with such a simple life like yourself. I figured that the night I caught you playing dress up with the girls, on the boat. But deep down I was under the impression, that Kevin had told you of what this all was."

Malini couldn't take it anymore, she just stopped him at his words, "What are you talking about?" she said confused.

"Kevin has been coming over to talk about a potential in the restaurant business, long before we met. He's even told me about this person, he's got someone, who'd be willing to sign the deal with him. At first I was under the impression he's got some culinary school graduate who's got some big dreams and ideas to start a restaurant of his own. But not until I met you." Malini listened to everything he was saying and felt betrayed. She's always thought that Kevin only did what he did because, he liked her. But apparently it was all about the money to him. She felt like someone had punched her right in the heart. "On the day we met. I asked him when he's going to pay me back the money he owes me. His only counter offer was that once I invest in the restaurant I can have a larger share than proposed and let the restaurant make the money for him and not worry about Kevin."
