Chapter Ten

Mason

I watched as Saylor walked away from me and out of my office. I wanted to stop her and demand that she tell me what in the hell was going on in that pretty little head of hers. But I already knew.

There was no denying we were attracted to each other. I also knew Saylor had just gotten out of what seemed like a bad relationship and the last thing she probably wanted was to jump into one with a guy who didn’t do relationships.

Wait. What in the living fuck? I’m not interested in a relationship. I’m interested in Saylor, yes. But dating?

I laughed out loud.

“Fuck that.”

Sinking down into my chair, I let out a groan.

Who in the hell am I kidding? I couldn’t stop thinking about Saylor. From the first moment she ran into me, spilled her damn hot tea all over, she was pretty much all I thought about.

I loved her smart-ass mouth and how she treated me like an equal, yet respected my position as her boss. She was smart and not afraid to speak up when she thought something was off or she had an idea. And damn if that wasn’t sexy as hell.

My head fell back against the seat. Why did Saylor come into my life now? When I’m right where I want to be career-wise. When I need to be focusing on said career and helping to build Tate and Cane and make it the best it can be.

Turning my chair, I stared out over the city I had only just recently moved to. I had been to New York City plenty of times for work and to visit Sterling and my brother. It was one of my favorite places to be. The hustle and bustle of all of it was like a cheap thrill.

So why, all of sudden, did it feel like I was completely and utterly alone?

“Mr. Quinn? Your meeting is in fifteen minutes.”

Hitting the button on my phone, I replied, “Thank you, Ashley.”

“You’re welcome, sir.”

I leaned back in my chair and tapped the pen on my desk as I let my thoughts move to the meeting I had in a few minutes. It had been over a week since I had taken Saylor to the housewarming party. She hadn’t tried to avoid me during the week, but something was clearly off. She seemed distracted.

My cell buzzed to remind me of the meeting. Saylor was presenting her campaign for the Jameson people, and I knew from reviewing what she had sent over earlier that she was going to knock it out of the park. Maybe I needed to put her on the damn protein bar account.

Picking up the file folders on my desk, I headed to the conference room. When I walked in, I was surprised to see Olivia sitting there.

“Olivia, I’m glad you’re able to sit in on the presentation.”

She nodded and gave me a polite smile. “I’d like to see Saylor in action.”

Great. Now Saylor was going to think I had something to do with Olivia being here.
