Rebecca

I can’t decide if I’m relieved or terrified the next morning to find an email from Wesley when I first wake up. Luke has insisted that he stay home with Jeff which means my workload was just upped considerably. Luke is hosting a business dinner with new investors at his penthouse this evening. I’m to help the temp secretary in the morning then spend the afternoon running errands for the dinner—including going to Luke’s penthouse to oversee the caterer’s arrival. Since Luke is scheduled for meetings on the other side of town all morning, that means I’m not likely to see him—hence the relief.

It also means I’ll be spending a considerable amount of time in his home, surrounded by a million reminders of the man I already can’t stop thinking about. Working in his home seems unbearably intimate—hence the terror.

Luke lives in a modern high rise. I show my ID to the doorman, explaining that Wesley sent me over, and he sends me right up to the penthouse level. I have to use the key card and enter the code Wesley gave me to even get the elevator to work. The doors slide open right into an entryway and my mouth immediately gapes open. If I thought Luke’s office was impressive, it has nothing on this.

I can see half the city from here. The entire front wall is made of windows. The penthouse has an open floor plan, sleek modern kitchen flowing right into a dining area with a massive metal and glass table for twelve, and then into the living room. The furniture is obviously high end and very modern, lots of glass and metals and sharp angles. It doesn’t look entirely comfortable to me, but it sure does look fancy.

“Wow,” I whisper, walking slowly through the space. I can’t imagine living in a place like this. I remember being surprised, that first night, that Luke could afford to rent a room at the club even when he wasn’t using it. Now I feel a little silly—Luke can clearly afford to buy the whole damn place, many times over.

“Can I help you?”

I jump about three feet in the air, spinning around to see a woman standing in the kitchen. Dressed in slim fitting dark washed jeans and a crisp white button up, she looks more amused at my reaction than uncertain about the presence of a stranger in the house. Her blond hair is swept up into a perfect french twist, her makeup sophisticated and understated. Her only jewelry is a pair of simple diamonds at her ears.

Is she Luke’s girlfriend? The thought has my stomach crashing down to my knees.

He’s just your boss, Rebecca, I remind myself. You don’t get to be jealous about his personal life.

No matter what his filthy magic fingers did to me on his office couch last night.

“I’m Rebecca,” I finally manage to say. “Mr. Davis’s new personal assistant?”

The woman’s beautiful face lights up and she steps around the massive marble kitchen island to approach me.
