I shook my head, a mixture of relief and embarrassment coursing through me. “Yeah, but I’d rather not remember that night. It was a drunken mess.”
“Okay, but was he at least good?”
I could tell from the heat on my face that I was tomato red. “Maybe. I don’t really remember.”
At my reply, she looked at me suspiciously. She knew me too well. She knew that whenever I turned this color, something was up.
“Oh, heisgood!” Ivanna slapped her hand over her mouth, muffling her shocked gasp. “Oh my gosh, you naughty girl. You slept with the hot boss.”
“I didn’t!” I said in a loud whisper as I glanced around, hoping no one had been walking by. Ivanna wasn’t exactly quiet with her announcement either. “Okay, I did, but I didn’t know he was the boss when we had a one-night stand. Plus, I don’t even remember much of it.”
“Oh, don’t lie to me, girl,” Ivanna said with a snort, waving her hand dismissively. “I don’t care how drunk I was. If I spent the night with a man like that, I would remember every single second of it.” After saying this, she licked her lips lasciviously and winked at me.
“Gross,” I muttered with a laugh, even though she was right. I did remember bits and pieces of it. Sometimes, when I closed my eyes, it would hit me like a storm, the sensations so real and heart-poundingly intense that they stole my breath.
“But seriously, though,” she said, her smile falling off. “I know he’s hot and all, but be careful with that one. He looks like a Type A bruiser.”
“He’s not.” I didn’t know why I rushed to defend him. “But either way, you don’t have to worry. I doubt I’ll even talk to him again.”
I would have kept to it, too, except he was now my new boss.
And we had a date that was fast approaching.

The next day, when I walked into my office, Charlotte was there. Bent over on the floor with her ass high in the air.
At the very sight of that, my cock was instantly hard.
“What the fuck are you doing?” The intense rush of sexual desire turned my voice into a harsh growl.
Charlotte startled, turned, and blinked up at me. I immediately felt my cock harden even more to the point of pain.
Fuck, why the fuck was she on the floor looking at me like that?
It was bad enough to remember the almost kiss from days ago. The one I almost let happen. The one I’d gone home and jerked off to when I imagined taking those soft lips in mine again.
And now here she was on her knees, looking like a damned fairy ready to fulfill all my dirtiest desires.
She blinked up at me, and then her eyes flickered down to the likely obvious bulge in my jeans. Her lips fell open in a little gasp, and I almost lost my mind right there.
“What are you doing?” I repeated, desire roughening my tone even more.
“Um.” She didn’t seem to be able to answer me until I purposefully shifted my bulge out of her line of sight. Only then did her gaze fly back up to me, her face heated in embarrassment. “Um, Garrett told me to come and check if the air con remote was here.”
“And you thought it would be under my desk?”
“Yeah, I thought I saw something there.” As she started getting back up to her feet, I noticed she winced as she did it.
I glanced down at her bandaged ankle. Either she’d sprained it again, or the injury wasn’t yet healed.
Probably because she refused to just stay off it long enough for it to heal. The damn stubborn woman. Why did she insist on needlessly hurting herself and putting herself in danger?
“Anyway, since I didn’t find the air con remote, I’ll just head back—”
Her words were cut off with a squeal as I took three steps to her and swept her into my arms.
