Chapter 18

Zach

I’m tired but, for the first time in weeks, not hungover as I drive from the Blue Heron to JK Investments. The time was still in the single digits, with the sun starting to dazzle. For the first time in what feels like forever, I have something to look forward to. All I have to do was get through my first day of work and I’d get to see Kylie again.

I thought about her. All of her. How perfect she’d looked floating on the water. The way moonlight and shadow-dappled her skin. Turned her hair into a glowing halo around her face.

Now you’re going to fuck me and take me to breakfast.

Blood rushes from my brain to my cock so fast I practically see spots.

Christ.

I’ve spent the last two weeks fucking my way from one end of this island to the other. So much of it my dick went numb days ago and all it takes is the thought of her unbuttoning my dress shirt to get me hard.

Focus, asshole.

That’s the problem though. I am focused. For the first time in months. I’m awake. Paying attention.

But I’m focused on the wrong thing.

I should be focused on my new job, not Kylie.

Don’t you mean focus on being Jonas Knightly’s manwhore?

And just like that, my dick goes numb like I stuck it in a bucket of ice water.

I cross the quiet lobby to the elevator and I am greeted with a total lack of enthusiasm by Jonas’s personal assistant when I step out onto the top floor.

“Is he in?” I ask the woman with no personality.

“No.”

Right. “Do you have any corporate information packets or brochures?” Maybe I could study up on JK Investments. Take them back to Kylie. She seemed interested in Jonas’s outfit, despite the fact that he was a total dickface to her.

The assistant, who I am convinced is a robot, stands and saunters to a filing cabinet that looks like a modern sculpture.

She returns with a bound, glossy booklet. I survey the lobby. There are a couple of plastic chairs, but the sofa looks like my best bet. At first, I sit up straight and study the brochure, then I peruse the financial magazines splayed on the glass coffee table and try to look alert. After a couple of hours, I give up, slouch back and close my eyes.

A kick to my feet jolts me awake. My mouth feels dry, my throat a little sore, like maybe I’d been snoring. I blink and jerk to sit.

“Morning, sunshine.” Jonas stands in front of me with his hands on his hips, legs spread. “Enjoying your time on the bench, I see.”

“Been here for hours.” I lick my lips, trying to get some moisture into my mouth and try not to sound as pissed off as I actually am. “You said bright and early.”

Jonas starts for his office, his back to me. “Early is a relative term.”

Fuck, I hate this guy.

I stand and follow him. He stops at IR’s desk. “Judith,
