Chapter Twenty-One

Kat

I’m not sure why I’m even thinking of buying lingerie for a guy who doesn’t even return a dirty voicemail.

He’d sent two emails over the weekend, one to both me and Rob, granting me final ad approval, and another that simply said: The reports look great. Thanks for taking care of the meeting on Friday.

Like, really? I tell him I miss his dick and then he decides to go and turn into one?

The hangers made a screeching noise as I pushed them along the racks. I was about to leave, sure I was too crabby for this trip I’d planned pre-dickish-radio-silence, but then I saw it.

Red and lacy, a bustier that had a tiny matching thong with those little strappy things that held up thigh-high hose. I could wear that under my work clothes, and then as soon as Jameson and I are out of the office…

Given that he’s talked to me before then.

Grr.

My phone rang, and I glanced at the display. Shit. I ducked down like my dad would sense through the phone that I was in a lingerie store. The ringing finally stopped, and I picked up the tiny outfit, debating buying it now or using the wait-and-see method.

But I didn’t want to wait and see. I wanted to be bold, and even if I never wore it with Jameson—my gut dropped at that thought—I’d wear it with someone.

Mr. Future Dude, who I could meet now that I was mostly equipped with the verbal tools and confidence I needed to amp up my foreplay game and sex life.

My phone rang again, and I jumped, dropping the flimsy outfit in the process and then scrambling to pick it up. I glanced at the screen. Apparently Dad wasn’t giving up today.

I tucked the lingerie into a compact ball and tucked it under my arm. “Hey, Dad.”

“Hey, pumpkin. Just wanted to check in and see how your second week working with JT is going.”

“Oh, great. It’s going great.”

“Are you learning a lot?”

You have no idea. “Definitely learning more about being assertive.”

Which meant that I was going to assert myself with Jameson, and tell him I was annoyed he didn’t call me back after I left him a sexy message. Did he have any idea what that did to a girl’s floundering self-esteem?

Not to mention my brain went all worst-case scenario and started picturing him out with other women, laughing at my ridiculous attempt at dirty talk.

Too many emotions swirled through me, and I tried to shove them back so I could finish up the conversation with my dad.

“Good, good,” he said. “That’s what I hoped would happen—why I called in the favor. You know I love you, and I really do want you to be the one to run the home branch, but this company has been in our family for generations, so first I need to know you can handle the responsibility, and that you know how to be a good boss. Okay, pumpkin?”

Nothing said I’m-turning-you-into-a-pitbull-type-boss like calling me the same thing he had since I was a kid.
