Share Us
My laughter echoes around us. “Maybe more than once.”
“Good. Did I mention I had this room made sound-proof?”
“So no one would hear anyone else’s bodily functions?”
“No, so I could fuck you at work where no one would know.”
With this, he kisses me again and saunters away while I stand there with my jaw on the pristine floor.
“Oh, and don’t forget to get your papers in the conference room!”
I roll my eyes at the insufferable man getting me all hot and bothered at work.
Of course he would make this room the perfect little haven for a secret moment for us to share.
I do a slow circle, drinking in all the beautiful features of the space.
Wrapping my arms around me, I squeeze my sides to tamp back the incredulous squeal.

I’ve felt it for weeks now, too scared to give it a name, but I know—I know.
I’m in love with my boss.
CHAPTER EIGHTEEN
BASH
The overseas manager says something, and I have to ask him to repeat it.
Again.
It’s after five, and I shouldn’t be at the office anymore—I should be with my family.
My mate and Jake.
“Mr. Baker, can we postpone this call until tomorrow?”

Humans assume I’ll act a certain way just because of who I am.
Occasionally, I take advantage of their short-sighted and petty outlook.
I hang up before the man can reply and pull out my phone to call Wyn.
To my surprise—and delight—I have a text from her.
Meet me in the conference room.
My pulse skyrockets as I bound out of my chair, knocking it against the wall in my haste.
Everyone is gone and the floor is silent as I all but run past the empty cubicles.
