For as long as I’ve known this woman, I’ve wanted her. Lusted for her, thought about her, obsessed over her. There’s probably a landfill somewhere full of stiff facial tissues and empty lotion bottles thanks to Zora.

When she opened the door in that t-shirt that didn’t quite reach her thighs. I nearly lost my composure. She hadn’t aged much but she’d clearly matured. The pictures I’d had taken of her over the years didn’t compare to seeing her in person.

She was just as adorable as I remember from her full lips and silky brown skin. Even her pink night cap is cute. Her breasts hang slightly lower than I remember, but they’re still full and inviting. I could see her nipples though that threadbare top. My mouth watered and my dick shifted uncomfortably in my pants.

The roundness of her hips, thickness of her thighs gave her waist a cinched appearance. She was still deliciously plump in all the right places, and every single one of her curves tempted me to run my hands over every single inch of her.

I literally bit my fist when she walked away to put some clothes on. Her ass was something straight out of my wet dreams. High, round and fat.

Fuck I wanted her.

But I didn’t count on seeing her this way. Yes, I’m indirectly responsible for this. Well, mostly responsible, but this isn’t how I wanted things to start in my grand scheme.

I’m not good with dealing with my own emotions so seeing her like this leaves me at a loss. I’m not sure if I should offer her comfort or let her cry out whatever it is she needs.

Clearly there is more going on here than just her missing brother. I’d made it my business to find out the state of Henry Knight’s finances and I knew they were dire and that this house in foreclosure. I’m certain could be what has Zora upset but I sense there is more.

I should feel guilty but I’ve waited twelve years to get to this moment and I had no intention of turning back.

I slid onto the couch next to her and place my hand on her knee. I don’t speak. What can I say? It’s going to be alright? I know that. But she doesn’t know that yet.

She doesn’t pull away from my touch which I take as a positive sign, so I move my hand to her shoulder and give it a reassuring squeeze.

Her sobs are heart wrenching. Her face rests in her hands as tears cascade down her face. She looks so tragically beautiful right now but her pain is so palpable I can’t ignore it. I pull her against me and wrap my arms around her.

She’s soft and warm and I hold her tighter. I don’t speak as her tears stain my polo shirt. I stroke her hair and gently rock her back and forth. This isn’t how I envisioned having her in my arms after all these years.

Slowly her sobs becomes a soft whimpers. When she stiffens in my arms, I know the peace is broken.

She places her hand on my chest and pushes herself out of my hold and then jumps to her feet. “I’m sorry. That was…unexpected,” she says with nervous laugher.

Her eyes are red and puffy but she quickly turns her back to me when our gazes meet.

“You have nothing to apologize for. I’m sure the shock of seeing me again, couldn’t have helped with everything that seems to be going on with you. And now you’ve learned your brother is missing. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it doesn’t look good for Langston.”

With her back still turned to me she sniffs and then asks, “How do you know my brother and what exactly has he done that would warrant you seeking him out yourself instead of getting the police involved?”

“Your brother briefly worked for my company. I got to know him and when I learned he was from Champion, the two of us hit it off. Shortly after the CFO took a leave of absence, he was put in charge of the financials.”

“Seems like a huge responsibility for someone who was so new to your company,” she interrupted.

Zora has always been sharp so I was prepared to be probed. “He was hired as one of our top executives to take on these tasks. As this would only be a temporary position and based on his resume and work experience, it made sense at the time.”

“Did you know he was my brother?”

“That came up in conversation, yes.” That wasn’t exactly a lie.

“So what went wrong? Did he embezzle money or something?”

“Yes.”

She spun around with a gasp. “Are you serious?”

“I wouldn’t joke about something like that. We brought in forensic auditors and it’s worse than we initially thought. It appears he attempted to pay most of it back but apparently he siphoned off a bit of money from several accounts within the write off margin so it doesn’t appear to be a loss but when added up, it’s a significant total.”
