CHAPTER 34 #2
When she pulled back to breathe, she sat back up and raised up on Violet’s fingers, dropping back down a moment later. Stella watched Violet watching her own fingers disappear inside her body until she rode out her orgasm and came down completely as she massaged Violet’s breasts with both hands.
They stayed like that, both of them catching their breath while they stared into each other’s eyes, and Stella swallowed as she thought back to the time she offered to wash Violet’s hair.
She understood it now. It had been way too intimate for Violet, something a girlfriend might do, and Violet hadn’t been ready for that then, when it had only been sex between them.
Stella had a feeling that Violet would be ready for that now.
“That was…” Violet’s words faded, and she shook her head while she smiled. Then, she laughed a deep post-orgasm laugh and added, “Really, really good.”
“Yes, it was,” she agreed, still massaging Violet’s perfect breasts.
“But as much as I loved it – and I did, trust me – can we maybe go fast this time?”
Violet smirked up at her, and Stella still couldn’t believe that Violet thought no woman had ever found her sexy before.

“Babe, your phone,” she said.
“Huh?”
“Violet, your phone is ringing.”
“It is? Why?”
“I don’t know.” She rolled to face Violet. “I think you have to answer it to find out.”
“Early.”
“I know, beautiful.” Stella chuckled and kissed Violet’s bare shoulder.
Violet’s hand sort of knocked the phone around on the table before she was actually able to pick it up.
“What?” she said in lieu of a greeting, and there was a pause before she shot up in bed. “Oh. Sorry, Mr. Silver. Good morning.”
“Who is Mr. Silver?” Stella whispered her question and sat up as well because Violet was naked in her bed, and in this position, Stella could slip behind her and kiss her back as she let Violet lean back against her, which sounded like a pretty perfect morning to her.
When Violet held her hand out and pushed Stella’s face away, Stella laughed and moved behind her anyway. She had a feeling that as long as they were doing this – and she hoped that was for a long time – Violet would always keep her on her toes, which, to her, was a good thing.
“You’re sure?” Violet asked.
Stella pulled her in by the stomach, trying to get Violet to lean back against her, but Violet kept smacking her hands away, which only made Stella laugh more.
“I’m going to kill you,” Violet whispered as she covered her phone and turned her head to her.
Stella just kissed her shoulder before she pulled her back again, and Violet finally let her have her way. Stella wrapped her arms around Violet’s middle and began kissing her neck and nibbling on her earlobe for good measure.
“There’s nothing big that needs to change in it?” Violet asked whoever she was talking to. “And we’re good to sign?”
Stella stopped kissing her and started paying attention then, recognizing what Violet was talking about now.
“Any issues with the upfront amount, the terms to get the money later, or that amount?”
As far as Stella knew, there was no Mr. Silver at Asset Capital, so it was likely that Violet was talking to the lawyer she’d hired to go over the agreement between the company and the VC. If he was telling Violet that it was okay to sign, that was definitely good news.
“Okay. Great. Thank you for getting this done so quickly. As soon as I get it back from you with those changes, I’ll send it over to them for review, but if it’s as minor as you say, they should have no problem accepting the revisions and sending it back to me to sign.
When they do, do you need to review it again?
” Violet paused to listen. “Okay. If they don’t accept the changes, then I’ll let you know, but if they do, I’m good from there.
Thank you again for prioritizing this.” She paused. “Goodbye.”
Violet tossed the phone onto the bed and leaned back more fully into Stella’s front, seemingly a little more relaxed now.
“Well?” Stella asked.
“The lawyer said it was good to sign. He only had two small changes. One was a typo. The other was that he wanted something to say twelve months instead of eighteen. It’s fine with me, and I don’t think they’ll have a problem with it. He said I can sign it, Stella.”
“That’s great, babe. So, this means that you might have it signed by the end of the week, and it’s eight to twelve weeks from then that the money shows up, right?”
“Mr. Silver also wanted that changed to eight specifically, but he said that that was common, so they shouldn’t have an issue with that, either.
He said if they push back on it, to suggest a smaller initial amount at eight and the rest at twelve based on new terms, but he seems to think that they’ll be fine with the change.
I think I can finally, maybe, breathe a sigh of relief – we might have real money soon that didn’t come from me. ”
“I’m so happy for you.” She kissed behind Violet’s ear. “And really proud of you.”
“I’m guessing when I tell my friends, they’re going to want to go out again tonight to celebrate.”
“You sure do celebrate a lot.” Stella chuckled.
Violet laughed, too, and said, “I know it probably seems like that, but we haven’t had anything to celebrate in a long time, so we’re taking advantage of it.”
“Well, do you want us to go out tomorrow night? You can come over tonight after you go out, and we can just sleep, if you want. I like the idea of sleeping next to you again soon.”
“Oh. Are you busy tonight?” Violet asked.
“No.”
“Then, why aren’t you coming with us to celebrate?”
“I didn’t know I was invited. I wasn’t last time.”
“We weren’t dating then. So, can you come? I want you there. I’m going to demand that we go to the bar and not that club.”
“I’m more of a bar girl myself, so that’s perfect.”
“And you can stay at my place tonight,” Violet told her. “We can watch BSG in my room, all snuggled up in bed, if you want.”
“Can you be naked then, too?” Stella asked before she began massaging Violet’s breasts.
“That can be arranged,” Violet replied.
“Can it be arranged that I give you an orgasm before you have to leave?”
“I don’t have to leave yet.”
“You don’t?”
“I told my friends that they were on their own this morning. Can you work from home today?”
“I have to send an email to an implementation team and do a meeting, but some of them are remote anyway, so I can do that from home. Now, it’s only seven, so I don’t have to do any of that yet,” she said and slipped one of her hands down between Violet’s legs.
“In that case, after we make each other come out here, we can do it again in the shower before I head home to let you work. Slow, baby,” Violet said of the strokes Stella was making against her clit.
Stella slowed down and asked, “Can I wash your hair this time?”
“You can do whatever you want if you work me up before you let me come.”
“You’re going to have my shampoo in your hair, and when I see you later tonight, I’ll have my arms around you, and I’ll be able to breathe you in and smell it on you.”
“That’s important to you?” Violet asked, her breathing a little more erratic now.
“I like the idea of you smelling like me and wearing my clothes, yes,” she replied and bit down on Violet’s shoulder. “And marking you.”
“You can, you know?”
“I can?”
“Yes,” Violet said.
“What about work? They might see it.”
“I don’t care. Just…”
Violet’s head went back against Stella’s neck, and Stella looked down and watched her hand as she worked her fingers against Violet’s clit.
She wanted to go inside her, but the angle wasn’t great, so she’d save that for later.
She stroked Violet slowly and sucked on her neck while her free hand twisted at Violet’s nipple.
“Are you ready?” she asked after several minutes.
“Yes,” Violet replied.
Stella stroked faster, licked the spot she’d just sucked on, twisted that nipple a little bit harder, earning a groan, and soon, Violet was coming against her hand as her hips rose and fell against it.
Her breathing erratic until it finally wasn’t, Violet came down and practically crashed back against Stella’s body.
“God, that is the best way to start the day.”
“Feel free to ask for that any morning you want it.”
“Tomorrow morning? You’re staying over.”
“No problem,” Stella replied and kissed her on the neck.
Violet then turned to face her and slid them both down on the bed until she was on top of Stella.
They kissed for long moments before Violet moved her hand between her legs, and Stella spread them, welcoming her inside.
Violet stroked her gently at first while they kissed, and it was reminiscent of the previous night when they’d done the same thing, going slow and not focusing solely on the orgasm, but on everything else, too.
Finally, Stella felt her muscles clench around Violet’s fingers, and she released, kissing Violet hard and messily as she went over the edge.
“If you want, you can join our Saturday morning meeting,” Violet said as she kissed down Stella’s body. “We don’t always have them, but when we’re close to a deadline, we meet for an hour or two before we all go our separate ways to work on whatever. We usually start at nine.”
“So, I’d have to get there early?” she asked and brushed hair out of Violet’s face.
“You won’t have to get anywhere because you’ll stay over Friday night.”
“Oh, I will, huh?” she teased, laughing a little, but then, Violet licked her hard, shutting her up.
