Chapter 66

Seeing red, she stomped over to the trash bin and threw it all away. She was completely aware of the six week limitation being up and had been planning to surprise Woody that evening by seducing his socks off! There was no way she wanted her plan ruined be this sadistic gift from Palmer!

Getting the rest of the groceries, she returned to the apartment and helped Woody put things away without saying a word about the package.

Jordan was glad she had found the package early enough in the day that she had hours to calm down before her planned seduction. If they had been closer together, she wasn't sure it would have been enough time to get the mood back.

As it was, she left Woody reading the paper while she told him she was going to get Riley ready for bed. She did that very quickly, and then grabbed a super fast shower for herself. She walked into the living room in a red satin baby doll nightie with a totally transparent robe over it and scarlet pumps with five inch heels.

Softly calling Woody's name, she waited for him to look up. When he did, she instantly had his full attention. He sat there in stunned silence, his paper hitting the floor as she ever so slowly walked towards him. Her seductive smile as well as the outfit she was wearing left him in no doubt what was on her mind, and now it was all he could think of as well!

His one question showed that no matter how eager he was for what she was offering, he still put her wellbeing first, "Jordan, are you sure that this is okay?"

"I am very sure! The only question now is, can we wait to go to the bedroom, or is here quite fine?"

"I will have you know that I am a proper mid-western gentleman and think I might just be able to wait until I get you into the bedroom," Woody told her as he rose from his chair, swept her up into his arms, and carried her into the bedroom.

She barely had time to throw her arms around his neck to hang on before he was putting her on her feet once again. Jordan stood there as Woody tenderly and lovingly undressed her. Then he tore his own clothing off so fast she was sure some of it would need repairs.

The night went about as perfectly as Jordan could have hoped. There was only a moment or two when stray thought of Palmer slipped in, but they were banished as quickly as they came. As she had expected, Woody was a gentle and caring lover. He put her needs before his own and almost brought her to tears a couple of times with his sweetness.

They slept for a time after making love, but woke again in the middle of the night to come together once again. Even though they hadn't had much sleep during the night both of them woke refreshed and smiling when Riley's morning wake-up call came.

Woody made breakfast while Jordan changed and fed Riley and then got his things ready for their first day at work together.

That morning what Garrett had feared, when he'd made the offer to let Jordan bring the baby in to work, was actually worse than he had thought it would be. His fear had only been that Lily would be so focused on the baby in the office that her work would suffer. What he hadn't thought about was that everyone else on the floor would react the same way.

Garrett was alerted to the arrival of Jordan and the trouble-maker by the "oh's", "ah's", and cooing that could be heard in the foyer. He figured he would find the two receptionists and Lily gathered around the infant. What he hadn't even considered was that Bug and Nigel would be there too! In fact, Nigel was the one freeing Riley from the stroller to lift him into his arms and start baby talking to him in a thicker than usual British accent.
