“Miriam, please come into my office,” I page her on our inner office system later that afternoon. Moments later she walks through my door. “Take a seat.”

Today she’s wearing a black and white striped dress with a teal cardigan and matching heels, but it doesn’t even matter because all I can envision is how she would look naked and wanting in front of me.

“I heard you’ve been seeing other people.”

“I don’t know if I’d call it that.” She laughs awkwardly. “But I’m glad you brought it up. I’ve been wanting to tell you about some of the things I’ve been working on.”

“Is this what you’ve been consulting others about?”

“Yes, it is.”

“Why didn’t you come to me first?” Irritation, or maybe hurt, stings in my chest.

“Well, I guess I wanted to see if the idea had legs before I brought it to you.” Her hands flutter nervously. “Plus, you’ve kind of been giving me mixed signals lately. Saying I wasn’t ready and then taking me to lunch with the Oakwood Boys.”

Maybe I have been giving her mixed signals. But that’s my prerogative as her boss, at least until I figure out my own thoughts. “Fine. Tell me your ideas.”

With that invitation, she starts laying out her projects. I’m listening to her, but only vaguely. Most of my attention is on her passion for the topic and how that translates into her body language. Her face lights up, her hazel eyes glow like light shining through autumn leaves. She scoots to the edge of her chair, leaning forward in excitement and giving me a view of her generous cleavage.

My cock thickens. It’s like the release in the shower never happened. I want her naked, wet, and screaming my name.

“Mateo thought it was a good idea,” she finishes up her explanation.

That bastard’s name coming out of my woman’s mouth throws me out of my daydream. “I’m sure he did,” I reply sardonically.

“What’s that supposed to mean?” she bites back.

I lean forward, done with this professional charade. “It means, Miriam, that while your ideas might be good, they aren’t the only reason you’re getting a good response.”

Without waiting for her response, I stand up and stride around the desk until I’m towering over her.

“Do you know what these men are thinking?” I demand. “Do you know what they want to do to you?”

“Um, I’m pretty sure all they want to do is have a cup of coffee.” She tries to sass me, but I hear the tremble in her voice.

“Wrong.” Impatiently, I grab her by the shoulders, pulling her out of the chair. She has no idea how desirable she is.

“Drake… Um, Mr. Gallagher, I’m not sure what you’re implying.” She slowly backs away from me. “I’m not the kind of woman that men… um, lust over.”

I prowl after her, not letting the distance between us grow. “Wrong again, pet.”

With a gasp, she flattens against the wall of my office. I slowly tuck a strand of hair behind her ear, drawing out the tension. She’s right where I want her and I’m not going to let her get away.
