Beau

I wish I had a bass boat and a Z-28. But I guess that stuff’s gonna have to wait. Cuz I’m saving on a washer and a wedding ring. — John Anderson, ‘Money in the Bank’

“Nervous?” I ask Brooklyn.

“Me? Nah. I attend meetings with the one percent all the time. I do it in my spare time for fun, actually. It’s a hoot.” She’s babbling.

Normally I’d find that sort of thing off-putting, but from Brook it’s endearingly cute.

“Relax. Take a deep breath. All of these people put their pants on one leg at a time just like everyone else.” I pause. “Well, except for Claude. He has a prosthetic, top of the line, it’s basically a robot leg. When I saw it I bought the company that made it. Remind me to show you the factory some time.”

Brook shakes her head, grinning up at me.

“Distracting me with outrageously casual displays of wealth won't always work. You know that right?” Despite her words, the smile on her face is brighter than the sun. I would do anything to keep this woman smiling at me like that.

“Damn. Well, I’m hoping by the time that stops working I’ll have my hooks in you.” I give her my best saucy grin, which only earns me an eye-roll and a shove in return.

“Oh, so sorry. Didn’t realize I was interrupting. I’m early, aren’t I?” The voice from the door is a deep gravelly yet joyful tone. Like a chain-smoking Santa Claus.

“Not at all, Claude. This is Brooklyn. She’s my new assistant, at least until I can get her to agree to settle down with me.” I say smoothly, extending my hand to shake the man’s and ushering Brook forward.

If my casual mention of dating bothers her, Brook doesn’t show it. One blink and she’s shucked the nerves, smiling at Claude and extending her own hand for him to shake.

He grins at her, giving her hand a gentle squeeze.

“Ah, Beauregard has it bad for you, dear. I can tell. Good for you. Take him for everything he’s got. Don’t let him skimp out on anything. He’s got the money to spare. Aim high, maybe you’ll get an island.”

Brook’s grin grows wolfish. “Don’t worry. I’ve got a nefarious scheme. Don’t tell him about it though.”

I clear my throat, causing them both to chuckle.

“See, Claude? There won’t be any problems. Brook is every bit as capable as I am.”

“So I can see. And better looking, too.” Claude chuckles.

“Beau, what do you mean?” Brook whispers to me after Claude walks away to take his seat.

“Oh, it’s just a small thing. You’re running this little meeting we’re having.” I whisper back.

Her gorgeous blue eyes go wide in surprise and horror. I reach over, placing one big hand on her shoulder and giving it a squeeze. Even just this small contact is enough to make my cock swell in my slacks. The chemistry between us is electric.

“Don’t worry, you’re going to be fine. Just be yourself.”

Brooklyn laughs a little hysterically.

“Oh, yeah.
