“Excuse me?”

“If you banged someone this morning, I’m not interested in getting one in right now.”

“Right now?” My jaw dropped, and he smirked at me.

“It’s quite obvious to me that you want me, Ms. Campbell. You wanted me in the elevator, and you want me now.” He shrugged. “But I don’t fuck women that—”

“You listen to me, Mr. Whitlock.” I stepped closer to him and pushed my face up at him. I moved even closer to him so that I could feel the warmth of his body next to mine. “If, and this is a huge if, I wanted you, I could have you in a heartbeat.” I moved my lips closer to his. “If I wanted you, you would quite literally know it…”

“Oh yeah?” he said. “How?”

I pressed my hand on his shoulder and moved my body up against his. My heart was racing and my legs were trembling slightly. I moved my other arm up so that both arms were now around his neck, and I was leaning into him completely. My breasts were pressed up against his hard chest, and I could definitely feel something twitching in his pants next to my stomach. I reached my fingers up into his hair and then ran them down the back of his neck.

“This is how you would know…” I stood up my tippytoes and blew into his ear before lightly licking his earlobe and then running my right hand all the way down the side of his body toward his pants. I ran my fingers through his hair and puckered my lips before bringing them closer to his lips. “There would be absolutely no doubt in your mind.” My lips lightly grazed his as my fingers ran down the front of his pants, and I felt his hardness against my fingertips. I gave him one light squeeze and then stepped back. I’d done too good of a job trying to teach him a lesson. I was feeling horny as hell.

Max and I were both breathing heavily as we stood there facing each other, and for a moment, I thought he was going to kiss me. My body felt like it was on fire, and I knew I was out of my depth, but I couldn’t help the way my body felt in that moment.

“But I’m not interested,” I said, stepping back and taking a deep breath. “I also don’t want to file these stupid folders.” I crossed my arms. “So let me back into the official program or I’m leaving.”

“On one condition,” he said, his eyes never leaving mine.

“What’s that?” I asked, barely able to breathe.

“You introduce me to the man that has the patience to put up with you,” he said with a smirk. “I want to meet the man with the patience of Job.” He laughed. “Cos I have no idea how he deals with you.”

“I don’t know. I…” I mumbled, trying to think fast.

“Don’t worry. I won’t tell him that you grabbed my dick and rubbed yourself all over me.” Max’s eyes twinkled as he gazed at me. “That will remain our little secret.”

I was about to correct him and tell him off but decided not to. As much as I wanted to push my luck, I really did want this job. “Fine,” I said finally. “I will figure out his availability and schedule. He’s very successful and very busy so I—”

“I expect to see him at the end-of-week party on Friday,” Max cut me off. “That is if you want this internship and if he actually exists.”

“He exists.” I glared at him. “You are one of the most insufferably rude men I’ve ever met in my life.”

“Get used to it, hon. If you want to be in law, you’re going to have to deal with a thousand me’s,” he said with a laugh. “It’s time to toughen up.”

“Whatever,” I mumbled. “And fine, he loves me, so if I ask him to be there on Friday, he will be there.”

“Good,” he said with a smile. “Oh, and by the way.”

“Yes?”

“If I wanted to seduce you, you would know as well,” he said, suddenly grabbing my hands and pulling me toward the side of the room. He pushed me up against the wall and then grabbed my waist and lifted me up.

“What are you doing?” I gasped as I felt his hands on my ass.

“Showing you what I’d do if I wanted you,” he said as he slipped my skirt up my thighs and spread my legs open before pushing himself against me and pressing me against the wall. His right hand ran down the side of my body and lightly grazed my breast before he buried his face in my neck and lightly bit me. His tongue trailed up to my ear as his hardness pressed against my wet panties. “If I wanted you right now, I’d have your panties off and be inside of you,” he whispered in my ear and then started chuckling as he lowered me back down.

He took a step back and winked at me. “Oh, and don’t worry, Polly. I won’t tell your boyfriend just how much you wanted me to follow through with those actions.” He grinned and then turned back to the desk. “Put these files away, then you can come back up to the conference room,” he said and then walked out of the room. I stood there, still leaned back against the wall, and tried to get my heart to settle down. I wasn’t even sure my brain could process what had just happened, but there were four things that I knew: 1. Max Whitlock was a jerk; 2. I was an idiot; 3. I needed to get laid as quickly as possible; and 4. I needed to find a boyfriend for Friday or I was going to end up looking like the huge liar that I was.

Chapter11

“This is an emergency meeting.” I stared at Chelsea and Harriet, both of whom were sitting on the edge of my bed eating Oreo cookies and looking very calm. Far too calm for my liking. “Are you guys paying attention to me?”

“We’re always paying attention to you.” Chelsea nodded.

“I couldn’t be paying any more attention if I tried,” Harriet said and then immediately pulled her cellphone out of her pocket.
