Groaning under his breath, I could sense he’d turned to face her. “Don’t worry, Marjorie. I have everything under control. Just hold my calls for a few minutes.”

“Yes. I mean, yes, sir,” Marjorie answered.

It was obvious that he had some of his employees in line. The realization boosted my abhorrence. When the door closed, I lifted my head, struggling to catch a glimpse of him. “Can we get this over with?”

I didn’t need to see the expression on his face to know I’d angered him all over again. I could feel a different level of heat resonating all through him.

“Yes, Ms. Porter. Six more.”

I should have kept my mouth shut. He issued six in an even rhythm, but every strike was more savage than the one before. I found it next to impossible to keep the tears from slipping past my lashes. When I counted to six, I was finally able to take a deep breath.

“You’re finished, Ms. Porter. For now. However, I’m certain this won’t be the last time you receive hard discipline from me.”

His arrogance had returned in full force. I held my tongue, struggling to get off the desk, quickly dressing. The second the jeans scraped against my bruised bottom, I almost lost it. I managed to wipe my eyes before turning to face him. “I’ll expect an addendum to my contract, Mr. Wolfe.”

Montgomery lifted his head ever so slowly, gazing into my eyes. Never blinking. Then the bastard smiled. “Absolutely, Ms. Porter. As I told you before, I am a consummate businessman. You’ll have those in your inbox by the time to get to work in the morning. Now, have a nice rest of your day and remember that there are strict rules you must follow.”

After that, he looked away. The asshole was dismissing me.

As I walked toward the door, I kept my head held high. I also made several promises to myself, including the fact I would bring the company into the glory from years before.

Then I would crush the man like a bug.

CHAPTER5

Montgomery

One.

Bratty.

Mouthy.

Pain in the ass.

Beautiful.

Formidable woman.

As soon as Aspen slammed the door, I lifted my head, forced to take a series of deep breaths. I’d ever met a woman like the spunky redhead in my entire life. She was bold, intelligent, and I’d realized quickly that her level of confidence was boosted by the fact she actually knew what she was talking about. I pressed my hands on my desk, shaking my head as I thought about her.

And every single thought was depraved, filthy, and sadistic. The things I wanted to do to her were likely illegal. My cock ached just thinking about shoving it deep inside her luscious pink pussy.

She’d been just as aroused as I’d been, the glisten on her pussy lips almost too much to resist. I could have easily shoved my shaft inside, taking her like some animal. Perhaps I would at some point. Huffing, I shook my head, closing my eyes. What the hell was I thinking? Not only was that something that couldn’t happen, but I refused to care about anyone ever again. It was far too… painful.

Who the hell had said anything about caring about her? She was just another gorgeous woman. Then why did I ache to the point my entire body was shaking? Damn it. This wasn’t something I needed or expected.

I refused to allow anyone to get close ever again.

My thoughts drifted to my unused playroom, the location I’d built with Carmine locked since her death. I’d even considered destroying the various apparatuses and implements, but something had kept me from doing it. “Damn.” I had to get out the ugliness inside my head. The playroom was locked permanently.

When the door was thrown open, I knew immediately who was storming inside.

“What in the fuck did you think you were doing?” Robert demanded, his voice lifting by several decibels.

I glared at the open door, knowing that Marjorie was paying attention to every word that was being said. She’d gone to him out of shock and horror, just like I figured she would do. I took a few seconds to collect myself, doing my best to shove aside my anger at the heated interruption.

The look on my friend’s face was one of rage and disgust. “I suggest you remember who you are talking to, Robert.”
