CHAPTER FIVE

Thursday evening arrived so much faster than Jocelyn was ready for.

After the emotional craziness of Monday, she’d hoped to have more time to mentally prepare herself for dinner with everyone. But Tuesday and Wednesday had been packed with meetings that had kept her and Jonah constantly on the go. And while she was usually off on Thursdays, she’d worked that day as well, since there were some maintenance updates being made on the Atlas building on Friday. Jonah and the other owners had decided to give everyone at the company a three-day weekend, rather than find another building to work at for the day.

Tuesday morning had been the first time she was with him in a work environment since they’d decided to become a couple, and she’d told herself that she had to play it cool. But she knew she was doing a crap job at hiding her feelings when the woman she’d been talking to from Accounting, Sandy Wilcox, gawked at them when Jonah dropped by and asked her to come up to his office before their ten o’clock. Because their offices were on different floors, Jocelyn hadn’t expected to see him until she went upstairs, and the sight of him looking so freaking sexy in a blue suit with a darker waistcoat and gray tie had damn near made her drool. She’d definitely gone red in the face when the sexy stud had winked at her, and she’d had to get the hell away from her desk before Sandy started demanding all the juicy gossip.

She and Jonah had ended up spending most of the day in meetings with the lawyers who were working with them on the Fillmore deal, so there’d been little time when it was just the two of them. But the way he’d looked at her during the meetings… God. She’d barely been able to keep from squirming with arousal in her chair, her cheeks no doubt still burning hot and pink.

There’d even been a few times when she’d caught him staring at his phone…and she just knew. Knew that he was looking at the photos he’d taken of her that morning before he’d left her apartment, and it’d made her even hotter. Made her so freaking hungry for him that by the time the lawyers had finally headed out at the end of the day, she’d been ready to come out of her freaking skin, even the soft touch of the cool air blowing in from the overhead vents making her nerve endings ping.

The conference room had been booked by the HR Department for an evening seminar they were running, so there’d only been time for one quick, stolen kiss before she and Jonah had to follow the lawyers out. But he’d still taken a moment to tilt her head back and run the damp heat of his mouth against the sensitive under-curve of her jaw. Such an innocent touch, in the grand scheme of things, and yet it’d left her vibrating with need, her breaths quickening until she was all but panting.
