It was a shock to me when I saw Scarlett already in the boardroom when I got there. I swore under my breath when I walked through the doors, but Scarlett must have heard me because she looked up instantly.

“Rough morning?” she asked.

It was the first time she seemed at all interested in anything about me. I pounced on it immediately. “All mornings are bad until the weekend hits.”

“You don’t enjoy being the CEO of your own multi-million-dollar company?” She raised her eyebrows as she said it.

“It’s never about the company. It’s about two hours before I get here. I got Mia a puppy, and she loves her, but Mia never wants to say goodbye to her in the mornings. And Lucy, that’s the puppy, never wants to say goodbye to me in the mornings.”

“Sounds like you need to take Lucy to obedience school, and I would recommend that you take Mia along with you. Make her a part of it so Lucy and Mia both learn that you are the Alpha.”

It was good, sound advice—and I’d probably take her up on it—but the way she said “alpha” rocked my world. I wanted to be her Alpha… in the bedroom.

And there it is. The reason why I can’t work with this woman! How am I supposed to get any work done when all I can think about is a romp in the hay with Little Miss Ungrateful? I wanted to turn her into Little Miss Yes Please. I took a sip of my coffee, then another gulp. Breathe in, breathe out.

We settled into work, and after about five minutes, she stood back and said, “Why do you dislike me so much?” She steadied her gaze on mine and crossed her arms.

I had to hand it to her. Not many women exercised the direct approach when solving a problem with the opposite sex, especially their boss. I was impressed—and mortified. How could I explain to her that I wanted her out of my business so that I could take her into my bed?

I decided to follow her lead and go with the direct approach as well. “I can’t focus on what needs to be done with you in the room with me.”

There. It was out. Now, let’s see how you handle that one.

She didn’t miss a beat. “Surely you’ve worked with beautiful women before?”

Shit! What a comeback. She was good, real good.

“Of course I have, but you unnerve me.” I am really wearing my heart out on my sleeve today.

“You’re afraid I’m going to kick you in the head again.” She put both of her arms behind her onto the drawing board.

I wasn’t sure if it was a deliberate move because it made her chest stick out, and I nearly dropped on the spot. She was wearing a thin, slightly see-through blouse, and the movement made her erect nipples press against the fabric in such a way that I could clearly see them. There was an instant reaction below, and she looked down just in time to witness the bulge in my pants growing.
