“Nothing.”
“Theo.”
“I was momentarily struck by the notion that I didn’t like the thought of you having sex with another man,” he admitted, kissing my palm again. “But if I’m understanding what you’re saying, then it’s been a while.”
Why on Earth would he be bothered by me sleeping with someone else?
“Oh? Is that so?” I asked, tilting my face towards his. “You didn’t exactly seem rusty yourself.”
“Don’t even go there. You’ve been running my life for the last ten months. You’d know if I’d been seeing anyone recently.”
“You’re not seeing me, and you slept with me.”
“The circumstances are massively different,” Theo said, releasing my hand and sitting up. “I just wanted to make sure I didn’t hurt you.”
“I promise that you didn’t. If you’re using the fact I’ve been running your life for the better part of a year as an excuse as to why you haven’t been with anyone, then what on Earth makes you think I’ve had the time to sleep with anyone?”
He paused. “That’s an excellent point. I’ll have to keep working you hard. And come up with a way to block your resignation again.”
I knocked my foot against his. “Just when you were making progress and becoming a reasonable boss.”
“I think I’m a very generous boss.”
“You would. You don’t work for you.” I laughed, opening my game. “Are you actually going to play this?”
“Yes. I wouldn’t have bought it otherwise.”
That was it.
Clearly, I’d orgasmed so hard I’d entered an alternate dimension.
“Like I said, I fell down a rabbit hole, and this game is surprisingly addictive to watch people play.”
He didn’t need to tell me that.
“Hey, Chloe?”
I paused. “What?”
“Wanna start a farm together?”
That was not a sentence I’d ever expected to hear from his mouth.
The alternate dimension theory was really starting to gain credibility, wasn’t it?
“I don’t really know how to respond to that,” I said honestly.
“Come on. I don’t know what I’m doing.” He leant against me again, using the top of my head as his own personal cheek rest. “I’m only going to bug you and ask you to teach me how to play, so you might as well play with me.”
I take back the ‘not a puppy’ thoughts.
He was totally a puppy.
A needy, whiny, touchy-feely puppy.
So, why the fuck could I not say no to him?
Was this what being whipped was? And if so, why was I the one whipped? Why was I giving in to this giant softie of a man?
