“Talk about what?” She pulled on her nightgown quickly.


“Our deal.”


“I’m not interested in any deal.”


“We’ll talk when you get dressed.” He slapped her on the ass. “Now get out of here before I ravish you again.”


She hurried out of the room and didn’t look back when she heard him laughing at her. She didn’t know if she would be able to stop the diatribe from spouting out of her mouth once she got started.


Chapter 6


Louise got dressed quickly and packed her bags. She tried calling a cab company but hung up when she heard the cost of a cab back to New York. There was no way she could afford them. She sighed as her stomach growled. She figured she might as well go and get something to eat before she figured out how she was going to get out of the Beekman mansion. She felt like some sort of harlot and didn’t want to stay around to find out exactly what the family had been told by Ben.


She wandered down the stairs and made her way to the kitchen. She saw David eating an apple as she walked in and her heart jumped into her throat. What would he think of her?


“Morning Louise, have a good night.” He smiled at her while chewing.


“Uh, yeah. Thanks. I was just looking for some breakfast.”


“You must be starving. You and Richard were the only ones who missed the meal.”


“Oh?” She studied his face to see if he knew.


“Yeah, but Richard usually doesn’t deign us with his presence anyways.” He laughed. “Let’s get you something to eat.”


She followed him to the pantry and the cook asked her what she wanted.


“Just some scrambled eggs and toast please.” She relaxed a little bit and they went and sat on the back patio. It was overlooking an Olympic sized pool and a vast garden. “Wow, it’s so pretty out today.”


“Yeah, it is nice.” He sat down and she tried not to stare at his face. He was just so handsome. “So what happened last night? I thought we were going to hang out.”


“Uh, I fell asleep.” She blushed and looked away.


“Oh, okay.” He pouted. “I hope we could get to know each other a bit better.”


“Yeah, that would have been nice.”


“What would have been nice?” Richard’s voice came from behind her and it made Louise jump. He had her plate of food in his hand and he placed it on the table in front of her before giving her a kiss on the cheek. She gave him a death stare and then turned back to David who hadn’t seemed to notice anything amiss.


“If I hadn’t fallen asleep last night.” She spoke before taking a bite of food. “Hmm, this is good.” She licked her lips and flicked her long black hair behind her. She noticed both David and Richard staring at her and she tried not to feel flustered. She had never had two good-looking guys pay her so much attention before.


“Oh, you slept well last night?” Richard grinned at her, his brown eyes sparkling with the secret he held.


“Yes, thanks. Quite well.” She rolled her eyes at him.


“I’m glad. I didn’t get much sleep myself.”


“Why was that bro?” David raised an eyebrow.


“I felt very sticky last night. Not sure why.” He winked at Louise and laughed at her blush.


“So do you guys want to head out to the beach?” David continued talking, with obviously no clue as to what had happened the night before. “Today is perfect for the ocean.”


“Oh sounds nice but I think I have to get home.”


“What?” David looked disappointed. “Why.”


“Well I need to get some work stuff done.” She smiled regretfully.


“That’s okay Louise. I’m not a slave driver. You can wait until next week.” Richard’s voice was smooth as the lies tripped off of his tongue.


“What?” Louise and David exclaimed at the same time.


“Oh, didn’t Louise tell you David? She popped by my room last night before she went to sleep and expressed an interested in working for Beekman Corporation. So I signed her on as my new PA, you know that Gladys retired a few weeks ago.”


“Oh, that’s great. Welcome to the company Louise.” David beamed at her.


Louise tried to keep her cool as she smiled at David. “Thanks, but we still have to work out the details.”


“Well, seeing as you already let Ben know you don’t want to work at the firm with him anymore.” Richard paused and wiggled two fingers in her face. “I think this is the best fit for you. I’m confident you will accept the deal I have ready for you.”


“We’ll see.” She smiled tightly.


“Okay, well awesome.” David jumped up. “I’ll meet you guys in the front in ten minutes. Louise, feel free to wear a skimpy bikini.” He grinned and walked into the house.


Louise waited until he was out of earshot. “How dare you?” Richard’s lips crushing down on hers interrupted her sentence. “You, you can’t kiss me here.” She broke away from him reluctantly. His lips had tasted sweet and her body was already attuned to his.


“Why not?”


“Because I’m here with your brother.” She sputtered.


“Not Ben. I’m sure he wants nothing to do with you. And I hope you aren’t thinking of trying to move on to David. I don’t think you are that much of a slut are you?”


She glared at him annoyed. “I’m not even going to answer that you ass**le.”


“Go and put on your swimsuit Louise.” Richard changed the subject and grabbed her hand. “Did you bring one?”


“No.”


“I have one for you to wear then.” He grinned at her. “Come, let’s go change.”


“I am not coming anywhere with you Richard Beekman.” Louise ran back to the house and went to her room and sat on the bed. She wasn’t sure what she was going to do. She wasn’t surprised to see Richard enter her room a few minutes later with 2 swimsuits in his hand.


“Thanks for knocking,” she spoke to him sarcastically. “It’s nice to have so much privacy in your home.”


“I didn’t want you to miss out on a day at the beach because you are so stubborn.” He dropped the bikinis on the bed next to her. “Come out and have some fun.”


“I don’t want to.” She pouted at him. “You can leave the room now.”


“I don’t want to.” He stood there staring at her. “In fact, I want to do this.” He sat down on the bed next to her and took her face in his hands and brought it towards him. She could see speckles of green in his eyes and before she could pull away he kissed her. She moaned as he slipped his tongue into her mouth and ran her hands through his hair. He ran his hands up and down her back and she felt his hand slip under her top and to her breast. He cupped her breast and she arched into him. He pinched her ni**les and she moaned into his mouth. Richard pulled back and lifted her top off and stared at her silky bra. He smiled and unclipped her bra and she sat there topless. She reached over and took his t-shirt off and stared at his chest. She sighed, he was just soo sexy. It wasn’t fair. How could she resist him? She didn’t have time to think as he pushed her back on the bed and she felt her br**sts crushed against his chest.
