I’m not going to let him see how he affects me. He doesn’t get to know that I’m attracted to him or that I’m wondering what it would be like to have those large hands roaming over my body.

I may be a virgin, but that doesn’t mean I don’t have fantasies.

Since the moment I met him, Evan has been the subject of those fantasies.

“We should set some expectations,” he says, his voice low. It sends a shiver down my spine. “I want the house to be kept clean and when I ask for your help with something, I expect it.”

“As long as it’s outside of my school hours.”

The corner of his mouth twitches. “Yes. That is our agreement. I will stick to that agreement. Once you are done with school for the year, the expectations may change.”

“And where did it say that in those contracts I signed this morning?”

“Fine print.”

“No, it didn’t. I’m a law student, Evan. The expectations were laid out clearly in the contract. I don’t know what other expectations you may have in mind for me, but I can assure you that they are unlikely.”

“Are you suggesting that I would want something more from you than working as a housekeeper?”

I shrug. “I’ve met a lot of men like you. You all claim to want one thing but you think if you throw enough money at something, it will just bend to your will.”

He smirks and for a moment, I consider lunging across the counter. I’m not a violent person, but I hate the way a single smirk is an easy dismissal of everything that I just said. I’ve come across it too many times working in the club to think that it’s anything other than that.

“Kendall, do you think I haven’t done my research on you?”

My eyebrow raises as my hands curl into fists. I try to stay calm. What I hate the most about men like him is that they think they have a right to personal information because they have the money to buy it.

It’s such a shame he’s just like all the others when he looks good enough to eat.

He rounds the counter, moving to stand behind me. My heart is hammering in my chest as I turn around. Evan takes slow steps closer, forcing me back until I’m pressed against the counter and his body is inches from mine.

I can feel the heat radiating between us and desire floods straight to my core. Even if I don’t like him, there is no denying the allure the man has. His gaze drops to my mouth for a second too long to be coincidence before he looks back up at me.

The earth feels like it’s falling out from under my feet as he looks at me with desire burning in his eyes.

“I assure you, I know that you need the money. My intentions with you are purely professional. Every now and then, there may be a task that comes up that was not outlined in the contract. It is your decision whether to do it or not. I will not force you.”

There’s a look in his eyes that says his intentions with me are anything other that professional.

“You have free use of the house and anything in it, as well as the cars in the garage. I want this to feel like your home as well. I’m not around much, but when I am, I do like companionship and will be expecting to see you.”

Right now, I should be telling him to forget the contract. I should say that I’ll gather my things and go, but I don’t.

Instead, I nod without saying a word and flee to my room before I can do something stupid. As attractive as he is, I don’t need anything or anyone distracting me from my future. Not now. Not when everything I’ve ever wanted is so close.

I need the money. I may not know how long I’m going to be able to put up with him.

I just need to survive until I have enough money for law school.

EVAN

It’sbeenaweeksince I nearly took things too far in my kitchen.

The first night Kendall was in my house, all I could think about was taking her right there, bent over the kitchen island with her blonde hair wrapped around my hand.

The business trip out of Colorado couldn’t have come at a better time. I was too close to losing my control that night and I had been around her for less than half an hour.
