Free The Braille Club Undone (The Braille Club #3) by J. A. Kerr

already in place, nodding at Anna as she left. Did people really want to work out at 6.00am? As several people passed her going into the club, it answered her question. Yes, people did. She walked to the tube, taking the time to clear her head. Sitting on the train, she wondered where her relationship with Guy was going. She paused. Relationship. No, that was not the right word. Relationship suggested commitment and familiarity. No, they didn’t have that. What did they have? Anna was shocked to find the list short. It started and ended with sex, which was good, but they needed more, she needed more. She left the tube station and walked briskly to her office Thoughts of Robert and their shared life whirled through her head. She struggled to imagine Guy and herself in the same context. Sharing their weekends and relaxing. Guy relaxing? He lived and breathed Harrison’s. It was his life. Anna sighed, confused and overwhelmed by what she was feeling—ignored, pushed to the side and invisible. The reason she had reacted to Simon Lawrence was easy to work out. She was lonely and vulnerable.
    She wondered how to change the situation between herself and Guy. Entering her building, she made her way to her office. Her suit hung inside the closet and she went to the ladies to change. Feeling better, she sat and looked through her files until she located the right one. Simon Lawrence had retained her services but no criminal act had been committed. Why? Guy’s due diligence had uncovered the accusation of assault but nothing had been officially reported. ‘What was Simon Lawrence up to?’ she mused. Her mind turned to Guy again. She refused to believe she couldn’t change him. Slowly a plan came into her head. Making Guy jealous was a dangerous game but she could handle it. Her phone rang in the office. Startled, she stared at it before lifting the receiver.
    “Anna Dunbar.”
    “You left without saying goodbye.”
    Anna smiled. “You looked tired; I didn’t want to disturb you.”
    Guy’s voice was husky, “Never too tired for you.”
    Anna’s mobile rang making her jump.
    “Who’s that calling you at this hour?” asked Guy, annoyed.
    Anna glanced at her screen. Simon Lawrence was on the caller display. She paused before saying, “It’s Simon Lawrence.”
    The silence that followed was explosive. “Don’t answer it,” said Guy curtly.
    “Guy, he’s a client,” said Anna, equally curt.
    “I’m coming over to take you for breakfast.”
    “Guy, I need to work,” Anna said smiling, her strategy of making Guy jealous working already. Her mobile went to voicemail.
    “Anna, I’ve been thinking about what you were saying. I have been working too hard. I’ve missed you. Last night was fantastic,” he murmured.
    Anna’s body tingled as she too remembered their night together. “Okay,” she relented. “It will need to be quick.”
    “Yes, I can guarantee it will be,” said Guy teasingly. “I’ll be with you shortly.”
    Heat flooded Anna. She glanced at her watch, relieved to see it was only 6.45am. She turned to her work and was quickly absorbed until the rap at her door. Guy entered carrying two coffees and a bag of food. He strode up to her desk put the food down and kissed her.
    Their passion as always was red hot and dangerous. Anna responded, her dark desires never far from the surface. This was her place of work. People would be arriving in the office soon. The thrill of discovery only made her wetter. Guy was already pulling up her skirt and parting her thighs.
    When his fingers slipped inside her, he groaned. Before Anna could protest, he was lifting her onto her desk while yanking her skirt up further.
    “Do you ever wear underwear?” Guy demanded. His hands caressed her buttocks. Anna heard him unzip his trousers, the head of his erection nudged against her.
    “I like commando,” Anna replied.
    He slammed into her, knocking the breath from Anna. Her mobile rang. Simon Lawrence’s name
