We finally managed to get cleaned off, dried each other, and put on our clothes to go out for the evening.
I wore a dark charcoal gray suit with a French Blue shirt that had a white pinpoint collar and white French cuffs with cuff links, and solid red tie with white dots on it. Miranda wore a sexy short black leather mini, a see through light weight mesh shell which fit like a camisole, and a matching black leather coat that barely came to the waist. In addition, she had on black fishnet thigh highs, lace crotchless panties, and 2 inch stiletto heels.
We got into Miranda’s car and I told her to drive us to the Rainbow Room, one of the best restaurants/lounges in town. On the way, I called to tell them we were coming, and since I know the owner, he had us a table waiting when we arrived.
We sat at the table and I ordered us Champagne. We toasted to our new life together and after a 90 minute dinner, we went next door to the lounge, where we partied to some of the hottest dance tunes playing today.
As the music was pumping, Miranda got hot and shed her jacket. It was dark there and surprisingly enough she was dressed fairly conservative compared to some of the women there.
After 30 minutes of shaking it to some of the hottest tunes, and bumping and grinding next to me in a way that would be considered by most to be x-rated, the DJ slowed it down and put on a romantic song.
We embraced and immediately kissed as our bodies pressed together. One look, and we knew it was time to go, so without saying a word, we drove back to Miranda’s lake house.
It was a nice warm summer’s evening as we made it back around 10:30 and Miranda asked me have I ever made it outside under the stars and I told her I hadn’t.
“Wait here sweetie,” Miranda said as she went upstairs to get some blankets, pillows, a bag containing some wine, fruit, whipped cream two glasses and a pack of cigarettes.
Taking me by the hand, she led me to the dock which extended out over the water. The night was dark, but the moon was full. It and the stars were the only light we had. We laid our things out on the dock and spent the rest of the night making sweet monkey love under the canopy of space to the orchestra of the music of the night.
During the night, we made love in every position imaginable and instead of going into the finer details of what happened, I will just let your own imagination fill in the blanks. Just know this, if it could have been done physically, we probably did it. In addition, just to give you a little hint of what occurred, picture whipped cream and honey being licked off the “vital areas” of Miranda and myself by each other.
The next morning at first light(civil twilight), just before the sun was just coming up over the horizon, Miranda was riding me cowgirl style and we both climaxed. We kissed and sat on the dock as we watched the sun slowly come up, then gathered out things walked hand in hand to the house and adjourned to her private bed chamber, where we slept until well after noon.
After we awoke the following day, we spent most of it, as well as the rest of the weekend, in bed doing nothing but having hot unbridled passionate sex, taking only time for eating, answering the call of nature, and a few breaks to re-gather our strength.
The following Wednesday when Miranda and I returned to the office, the company president Mr. Peterson called us into his office. He was his usual jovial self.
“I trust you two had a relaxing vacation,” Mr. Peterson said with a smile. “You two look rested and look like you had a great time, but that is not why I called you in here. It seems that the board is very impressed on how this company has been turned around the last few months. The board has asked me to become Chief Executive Officer starting on the first of the month,” Mr. Peterson said with a smile.
“Wow sir, that’s wonderful,” Miranda and I said in unison. “You will make an Excellent CEO,”
“Thank you both very much, that is kind of you, but that is not entirely the reason I called you two into my office,” Mr. Peterson continued. “The truth is they are looking for a Chief Financial Officer, and I took the liberty of suggesting you Lennie as the candidate for that position, if you don’t mind.”
I was awestruck and totally taken by surprise and Miranda and I just looked at each other and were at a loss for words.
“Yeah great, I mean thank you sir,” I stammered as I tried to craft a reply. It was probably the first time I had been at a loss for words. “I would be honored to accept the position,” I added as my voice returned.
“I will let them know,” Mr Peterson replied jovially, then continued by saying “oh and just so you know, they had already approved you, and were just awaiting your acceptance.
“Okay, well thank you sir,” I replied, still stunned.
Miranda just couldn’t help herself and turned to me and giving me a big hug said, “Oh hun, I am so proud of you,” and laid a big kiss on my lips.
After Miranda broke the kiss, she realized that our “secret” was out and that we were much closer than just co-workers. Mr. Peterson just smiled and said “I figured there was something going on between you two, but that’s neither here nor there. I am sure you two are mature enough to handle it without effecting company operations.”
“We are sir,” Miranda and I said in unison.
“Well I am sure you two are going to have much more to celebrate, not just Lennie’s promotion to CFO, but Miranda’s to President of the company,” Mr. Peterson said with a smile. “I have watched you these past few months and I am certain you have what it takes to continue leading this company in the right direction for the future, and the Board agrees. Congratulation Madam President,” Mr Peterson said, as he put out his hand to shake Miranda’s.
“I gladly accept sir,” Miranda said with a big smile as she shook Mr. Peterson’s hand. “I am honored, and I will not disappoint you or the Board sir.”
“I have every confidence in the two of you that you will turn this company around and make it the company what it was once again, the paragon of publishing,” Mr Peterson said.
Mr. Peterson told us that our new positions were also effective on the first of the month and for the next two weeks, the Board had authorized us to take a vacation. Miranda and I didn’t object.
For the next two weeks, Miranda and I “celebrated.” I will let your imagination fill in the blanks, but some of the things we did, made a porn movie seem like a Disney film.
We returned to work after our vacation and settled right into our new positions. Six months after we took over, sales and publications rose by 67 percent, and within the next 18 months years, Eden Publishing Limited, as the new company was now called, was solidly operating in the black, and pulling back almost a million dollars of profits, and they continued to rise each quarter after that.
Over the next decade, under our new leadership, Eden Publishing Limited soon was booming multi-million dollar company, and was very close to be considered a multi-billion dollar company. Eden Publishing had once again taken its place among the American publishing leaders, as well as famous and thriving internationally as well.
