~Chapter 4~

Although I knew turning down the advances of the infamous Jason Powers was the right thing to do, I still cursed myself for my decision.

Of all the women in the world, Jason wanted me - me!

That night was spent tossing and turning in my empty bed, thinking about Jason’s invigorating scent, his fitted gray suit, and his strong body pressed against mine. My dreams were filled with his tender kisses and his hand sliding down the small of my back.

The screeching ring of my phone tore me from my heavenly dreams. I sat up and rubbed my eyes, wishing I could go back to sleep and dream about Jason Powers.

Jason Powers… ugh.

Now that I was awake, the thought of him disturbed me. How could I ever think he was sexy?

The phone screeched again. It must be my mother - the Jacksonville fair started in an hour and she was always worried that I would sleep in. Bleary-eyed, I walked around my room, looking for my screeching phone. Finally I found it under the red, silk dress. I rubbed my eyes and put the phone up to my ear.

“Hello?” The scratchy tone of my voice revealed that I had just woken up.

“Hi, sleeping beauty.” Jason’s deep sexy voice sounded over the other line.

Fuck!

My heart raced in my chest.

What did Jason Powers want from me?

The phone burned in my sweaty palm as I panicked, wondering what to say.

“What do you want?” My voice cracked.

Shit!

Why was I so nervous?

Moments ago I couldn’t care less about the man, but my deep subconscious reminded me of the sexy dreams I had last night. My stomach clenched.

“I guess someone hasn’t had their coffee yet this morning.”

I rolled my eyes. “I’m hanging up now.” I held the phone close to my ear, hoping he wouldn’t call my bluff.

“Sophia - wait.”

I smiled wickedly. There was an exhilarating feeling to being wanted by such a powerful man.

“I wanted to thank you,” Jason continued.

“Thank me?”

“Yes, for opening my eyes last night. You see, I don’t date a lot of - smart - women. Their eyes are usually clouded with dollar signs and they fail to see me. You’re the first woman I’ve ever met who has actually called it as it is.”

I nodded as I listened. “It sounds like you should surround yourself with different people.”

“That’s what I’m trying to do with you.”

There was a beat of silence between us.

Fuck! What do I say?

“Well, you’re welcome,” I said. “Now if you don’t mind I have stuff to do-”

“Wait.” Jason’s voice was deep and commanding. A deep part of me clenched. “There’s a gala this afternoon, to celebrate the opening of the new Powers mall in Jacksonville. I want you to join me.”

I let out an exasperated sigh. The man didn’t listen to anything I said!

My subconscious slyly reminded me that if I went to the gala, I’d get to see Jason in a suit again, but my brain was quicker and smarter, shutting it down.

“I’m sorry, Jason Powers. I can’t go to the gala with you today.
