Call me stupid, but Iâd expected to be able to go back to work like normal, even after last night. The first side effect of Mr. Stoneâs magical cock was one of the most vivid, enjoyably erotic dreams Iâd ever had the pleasure of experiencing. Of course, it was just as ridiculous as it was fun. It was like some porny spin-off of that movie where Jason Statham had to keep his heart rate above a certain point or heâd die. In my dream, Mr. Stone had to keep an erection or heâd die, which meant my job was to constantly keep him aroused every hour of the day.
As it turned out, I was very good at my job and a very enthusiastic employee.
Reality, on the other hand, was a little less perfect.
I made my way into Stone Tower, greeting the front desk girls who, by now, had started seeing me as some sort of rare unicorn. Surviving as Mr. Stoneâs executive assistant as long as I had made the already swirling rumors grow to a fever-pitch. If you asked anyone in the office while I wasnât around, theyâd tell you he and I were definitely sleeping together. People were nice enough not to say as much to my face, but I knew what was going around.
I heard them whispering with awed tones as I headed for the elevator. Well, I guess now the rumors had become true, hadnât they?
I could hardly believe my own memories as I took the elevator up to the penthouse for my tutoring session with Max. Even though I probably shouldâve felt guilty or conflicted or any number of other emotions, I honestly just felt good. I felt like Iâd done something the old me wouldâve never done, and the Earth hadnât opened up beneath my feet to swallow me whole. I was still standing, still living my increasingly awesome new life, and still smiling. Except now I was enjoying all the benefits without the side effects of crippling sexual frustration.
Max saw me come in and quickly wiped at her eyes, sniffing and then giving me her usual look of practiced disinterest.
I frowned, coming into the room and sitting across from her at the polished black kitchen table. Her nose was red and her eyes were puffy. It didnât take a detective to see sheâd been crying.
âHey,â I said. âDo you want to talk about it?â
âTalk about what?â Max snapped.
I looked down, thinking through my options. What would I have wanted at her age if I was upset about something? Probably not for a lame old grownup to pester me for details. Iâd just want something to take my mind off whatever it was.
âWanna play hookie again?â I asked. Iâd gotten sick almost immediately after bringing Max out for her pedicure and she hadnât so much as hinted at wanting to do anything of the sort since. I wondered if Christian had laid into her.
Max picked at her peeling nails and gave a little tilt of her head.
