His Absolute Authority: A Scandalous Billionaire Love Story (Jessika, #3)
though.  I promise."
    He faked an annoyed sigh.  "I'm waiting..."
    "I'm going!"  She laughed and kissed him on the cheek and scampered out of the bedroom, shutting the door behind her.
    As soon as she left, Asher unbuttoned his pants, unzipped them, and slipped them off, letting them slide down his legs.  His throbbing erection popped free, nearly slapping hard against his stomach.  He wrapped his fingers around his shaft, stroking himself up and down a few times.  He probably could have masturbated himself to completion right then and there, and still been ready and willing to go when Jessika returned, that's how excited and aroused he was right now.
    But, no, he didn't do that.  If he was going to cum twice, he wanted both times to be deep within his beautiful wife's pussy.  His cum was reserved for her and her alone these next few days.  He refused to waste it.
    As hard as it was to think of anything besides sex right now, he forced himself to find a distraction.  He unbuttoned his dress shirt and let it slip off his shoulders, down his arms, and onto the floor with his pants.  Kneeling down, he fished through his pants pocket for his cell phone.  Taking it with him to the bed, he bounced on the mattress before sitting still, shifting and turning so he could lean against the headboard.
    He thumbed through some things on his phone, tapping this and that, until he brought up some relatively important business file.  This wasn't exactly regular business, no.  It was a secondary analysis of Jessika's office, with further notes and details regarding the break-in and vandalism from the other day.
    He knew there'd be something.  Fingerprinting was usually reserved for official police business, but there wasn't really anything stopping anyone from doing it if they had the proper tools and expertise.  There should have been at least one extra set of fingerprints in Jessika's office, too.  Whomever had broken in and rummaged through her belongings had also left a malicious note on her computer, which meant they'd needed to type it in.  Even if they only wrote the word once and then copied and pasted it a bunch of times into the document, they still would have tapped each of those keys at least once.
    There were some flaws to this logic.  The intruder could have worn gloves, for example.  It wasn't perfect, but...
    He scanned through, reading the evaluations from the investigators.
    This wasn't absolutely conclusive by any means, but they did find evidence of specific imprint patterns on the keys involved.  Obviously Jessika had used the keyboard on her laptop, as well, but they could check the other keys for patterns and hope to come up with a better conclusion through deductive methods after that.
    Asher didn't know if this was good enough, though.  Mostly because of what the reports potentially confirmed.  This still wasn't entirely accurate, but...
    The outline of the foreign imprint patterns associated with the W, E, R, O, and H key, along with CTRL, C, and V, commonly used for easy copying and pasting all showed signs of being small.  Size was relative, of course, but small fingertip size generally indicated smaller hands.  While the investigators couldn't confirm with complete accuracy that this was an absolute fact, they believed the intruder must have been female.
    Asher read that part over and over again.  At first he thought it might have been a mistake, because if Jessika used her own laptop, as she obviously had, then that would account for feminine finger sizes, wouldn't it?  Yes, but those prints would also show more clearly.  The intruder had worn latex gloves or something similarly thin.  The gloves weren't large enough to cause huge changes in the size of the imprint left behind, but they were good enough to keep their owner's fingerprints off of the keyboard.
    They might not be able to identify the person by their prints, but they could at least have a reasonable assumption of their
