Epilogue

"Oh...my...oh...god!"

"I told you...it would be good. Slow down...argh...M!"

"So hot...my god...but so good! More...yes...yes...please...more."

"Christ woman, you will be the death of me yet. Slow down or it will will finish too fast...we have all night...that's it...let's cool down..."

"You don't think...that...that...I can take it?"

"Dear god...M...careful...I don't want...to have to use CPR."

"Oh...don't you?"

"Minx...slow down...arghhh."

"Maybe...I'll have...to...perform the CPR on...you James."

"Anytime...your lips are on mine I'm happy. I would die happy...under...or over you...M. More? My god woman...you...are incredible at this. I always...knew...you could...handle your own, but...this much...you amaze me. I need to slow down...take a break."

"Slowing...down...in your old age 007? I thought you could handle...you know...stand...the heat? You claimed you could...come on...if I can take it…you...can."

"More M? You...need more already?"

"Yes! Yes...give it to me now!"

"Where are your manners...M...I would have thought...you had some...til now. Wait for it...slow down M...or someone will get hurt."

"Now 007...or I will...I will make M fire you. Give it to me now!"

Bond! I know that this may be too much to ask under the circumstances, but do you at least have eyes on your mark?

"Ah...Q...yes I do have eyes on more than the delectable woman who sits across from me currently turning several shades of red. She has a comm on also Q...so continue."

Yes...sorry ma'am.

"Yes...Q I can hear you and the man we are here to follow is at the bar with a young woman. Where is Mr. Tanner?"

I'm sorry ma'am but he had to leave the room...he...was blushing too much...to listen further.

"Why?"

Um...I don't know if you realize ma'am but...it sounded quite like you and Bond were...engaging in something...other than eating.

"M, relax...this always goes better if you relax."

"Oh...damn! And that's bloody well going to help matters how Bond? I'm sorry Q. I didn't realize...it's just I needed water and more beer...the food is delicious but so very spicy."

I gathered that ma'am. There was not enough panting from Bond to think otherwise.

"Ha, ha Q, how droll. Keep these comms on later and we'll see who's blushing when that happens."

"Bond! You will do no such thing!"

Don't worry ma'am. I can disconnect manually for the five or less minutes Bond will...manage...to...well...

Olivia begins to shake with laughter which makes me growl. I suddenly see the mark look at his mobile while standing up from his seat at the bar.

Here I wanted to take M away to Southeast Asia on a romantic private vacation. Then this mission came up and M decided it would do them good for us to work this mission together.

I hate having her anywhere near any danger, but I thinks M is beginning to enjoy the thrill of an agent's life. The flashy cars, boats and luxury hotel rooms are an added bonus...as well as the company. It took me over 6 years to tell this woman how I feel about her but now...

Now here we are retired and yet, working a job for MI6. I was going to say no to Mallory's request. However, the bewitching way with which M convinced me...made my mind wander and yes was the only thing I could say over and over and over again.

Damn she's distracting! We're just out having dinner and watching our mark and his young woman. 003 is nearby for the dirty parts, because I will not have M in the line of fire.

"You miss it don't you?" M says as she watches me study the couple at the bar.

"No...what I miss is our bed and I plan for us to return to it very soon."

"Admit it, it won't kill you to say that you miss the action. You miss being on the job."

I smirk at her. "The only action I miss is what I have planned for you once I pay this bill."

Dear god...Bond...still here remember!

"Good maybe you'll learn something Q."

You really need to work on you lines. Seriously ma'am no offence, but how can you deal with that...with him?

"Years of practice Q and yes, I always did shake my head at the lines he uses on women and men for that matter. However, they've worked for him for years, on all those other people. I've heard it all before, and they never impressed then..."

"There is a difference with it now. I actually mean it for you, you sexy beguiling temptress. Q, I will have you know that I've had to scare away several gentlemen and one not so gentle man away from her at the pool and the hotel bar during any short time I leave her alone."

Tanner comes back on comms.

Q said you stopped your...discussion over dinner. What is going on besides Olivia driving all the men wild and you to distraction Bond?

"Ha...ha...stop it! All of you. Bond exaggerates and he has had far more attention than I." M cannot stop chuckling. I can't help but stare at the way it make her chest heave and her eyes twinkle.

Olivia I don't know if I've ever mentioned this but you are a stunning woman. One who now, more than ever, glows in beauty and happiness. I just can't believe that it's Bond that has brought you to this...this…of all...

"Tanner I've warned you before...stop flirting with my girl."

The mark leaves the bar suddenly and walks out to the street. "Q, Tanner he's on the move. He's waiting for the valet. Alright, he's headed west in his black Porsche with the girl."

I will notify 003 and let you go now Bond. I would say have a nice evening but I'm already sure you will.

"I will make sure of it, or die tryin Q...she really is quite insatiable." I stand and toss some bills on the table and drink the last of my beer. I reach for her hand, to see her eyes flash at me in both anger and amusement.

"Watch what you say over comms Bond!"

"What...you eat more than I thought a woman of your size could, even spicy hot!"

I cannot contain the grin that spreads across my face as I hear Tanner and Q klick off their connection. I remove the earbud as does M. I put mine in my jacket pocket as she placed hers in her bag. We will trust 003 to do his job and enjoy the rest of our evening working off that dinner.

I wrap my arm around her as we walk down the street back to the hotel. The sudden sound of a great deal of emergency vehicles, pierces the warm evening air. 003 has accomplished his job. M stops walking to look at her mobile. She meets my eyes and gives me a small serious nod. We walk in silence lost in our own thoughts. It isn't that our desire has decreased, it's merely temporarily replaced by the seriousness of what's happened.

The two of us have been watching the mark for three days. I searched his room and managed to flirt with one of his mistresses to confirm for London that this was the man they wanted. 003 did the dirty work and he made sure the woman survived. That was something I always had difficulty with. However, in my defence, my missions were usually a lot more difficult. This mark was rather average level.

We enter the lobby and I see Mr. Johnston from Massachusetts, shooting daggers at me as he attempts to chat up two women in the lounge. I had to pull his hand of M's knee yesterday. He thinks she hired me just to play with, as he asserted his own personal wealth and availability to her unwilling ears. M was shocked but set him strait.

"Why don't you go to the strip and pay for a young thing to spend time with...that is really why you're here and there is no shortage of willing entertainment for you to have elsewhere." M snapped at him silencing his blubbering and bragging.

The key to seduction is to barely talk, and to listen intently to the woman. Make her believe she's the only one in the room. This blow hard is an idiot. One who couldn't recognize her eye rolls and body language as that of a disinterested woman. One who is far too intelligent and above his misogynistic arrogance. Not to mention, claimed by me.

I nod at the man as I pull M to the lifts.

"Are you sure you don't want to go to the bar for a drink?"

"I want you in our room. Not anywhere in public where another Mr. Johnston can try to steal you away from me."

M laughs as I hit our floor and the doors close leaving us in relative privacy. There are always cameras within, but I don't care.

I lean down and kiss her hard. M grips the front of my jacket holding herself up to my lips. I continue and push her up against the left side of the mirrored lift, pressing my body up against hers. I am rewarded with a sexy moan as she kisses me back just as ardently.

She then pushes me back against the back wall with a shocking amount of strength. M is nothing if not surprising at every turn.

My hand travels up to touch the bare skin of her back, which is exposed by the deep V of the dress that she's wearing, but not for much longer. This dress dips low enough to make men envious of me regardless of any prejudicial attitudes towards the age difference.

The door opens and the cool air conditioned air of the corridor hits us. M involuntarily shivers at our sudden lack of contact.

We walk briskly down the corridor and I open the door for her to pass me into the room. She tosses her bag on the table and kicks off her heels as she turns to me and is about to say something but my lips silence whatever she was about to say. I continue what we began in the lift as I move her gradually towards the bedroom.

M pushes the jacket off my shoulders and her hands quickly go to my belt. I'm too busy kissing her but I smile against her lips at her impatience. One delightful thing I've learned in becoming Olivia's lover, is that she goes from zero to sixty faster than the DB10 did, before I dumped it in the Tiber.

This sort of love is still scary and new to me. It's so different from what I thought love was. Vesper and Madeleine matched my desire, my passion and I did love them...but not like this...this is too much to describe in thought or words.

Clothing drops away; as zippers fall and hands move over shoulders, releasing garments from ivory skin, still lovely soft and delectable. I spend time adoring her shoulders, neck and face with my lips, before moving towards her breasts. Her moans and gasps make my heart flutter and passion rise.

We make love as I promised her earlier, but with the comms off. Although, I joke with her about letting them listen in to torture Tanner; who I'm positive has a crush on her, I would never share M with anyone that way, intentionally.

She is the only one I've ever truly needed and wanted in my life since the day I met her. Considering the challenges we've met and the deaths we've managed to defeat, it's amazing that I found her again and convinced her of feelings I'd buried for so long.

For the first time in my life, I like where I am and I don't feel like I'm lost and looking for something or someone to heal me. M took care of all that by agreeing to love me as much as I love her.

The end

Thanks for reading.
