The figures on the computer screen meant nothing as I replayed the events of last night in my head.
When my brother strolled through the door, I took a quick glance at my Patek Philippe.
“Isn’t it a little early?” I asked Connor.
He stood in black leather pants and a black tee, and probably hadn’t gone home from the night before.
“No one ignores the great man when he summons you for a family meeting,” Connor said.
I too had gotten the message about the family meeting.
“You too?” he questioned with a raised brow. I shrugged. “What have you done?” Connor asked as if it was a foregone conclusion it was all my fault.
“I’m trying to save this company,” I said. “What have you heard?”
He shrugged. “Dad didn’t give a lot of details.”
“The old man doesn’t trust me.” As well he shouldn’t. I was working for one reason only. Payback. I would never forgive him for what he put my mother through.
“He doesn’t trust anyone, including me,” Connor said.
Despite my baby brother’s dual degrees in business and law, he wanted nothing to do with the company our father had built.
Connor waved me off. “You could always screw your way out of this.”
I shook my head and ignored his sexual proclivities. “Not interested in bedding the enemy. You can if you want. Though Father might disown you if you reveal yourself to the public.”
He rolled his eyes. “I’m surprised we haven’t been outed yet.”
I wanted to believe our father had our best interest at heart. More likely, he didn’t want to share the limelight. His rules dictated that we use a driver and private elevator that took us directly to our floor when coming into the office. Everyone who worked directly for us was required to sign an ironclad non-disclosure agreement. He was so paranoid, meetings were held on the other side of the building away from our offices.
When I didn’t respond to Connor, he said, “You need to get laid. You’re too tense.”
Though I loathed to admit it even to myself, I couldn’t keep my mind off of one smart-mouthed redhead.
I’d known she was trouble when she’d walked into the New Year’s Eve party. Never in my life had I been so single-mindedly focused on one woman. I’d tried my best to ignore her presence until a tall guy headed in her direction on the dance floor. That was when I made my move. A primal urge to mark her as mine had overcome me.
Lucky for the guy, he’d gone for the gorgeous but way too skinny blonde who danced next to her. A mistake on his part. The redhead had the face of an angel and a body the devil himself would pray for. As it turned out, she’d been the sin that tasted like heaven I couldn’t forget.
Though I’d been balls deep in her four times, it wasn’t enough. Watching her eyes go unfocused as she came had become my drug of choice. But it was her mouth that would be my undoing.
