Not a word.
Not a sound.
Not a peep.
Maybe she’s asleep since it’s after midnight. I bang harder. “Seraphina! Open this door or I’ll kick it in.”
Finally, I hear the floor creak from her scurrying feet and the deadbolt turn. Thank fuck.
“Please stop yelling or the neighbors will call the police.”
Finally the knob twists, and I burst in. “I don’t give a fuck who they call. No one will stop me from seeing you.”
She stumbles backward, and I grab her to keep her from falling. Which is perfect. I’ve got her in my clutches, her gorgeous face in my sights, her sugary scent in my lungs.
My roaring blood pressure instantly falls just from being close to her while my dick hardens. “Not your neighbors. Not your friends. No one. Not even you.”
Crimson explodes on her face, and I realize my hunch was correct. Someone told her not to see me again.
Her gaze drifts away. “I…I just think…”
“What do you think?”
I keep my tone low and neutral, so she realizes I’m not goading her. I really want to know her thoughts.
“That maybe you’ve dated other girls from work and—”
“Nope, not even once. Only you.”
She frowns instead of smiles. I thought that knowledge would make her happy. Something else bothers her.
“If I say no, then you’ll fire me.”
“I’m not going to fire you but you’re not going to say no. Because you want me as much as I want you despite someone else telling you otherwise.”
Her head droops forward, and I miss her exquisite features.
“Is that what happened? Your friend told you this was a bad idea?”
A small nod and a big breath. “She’s just trying to look out for me. She’s worried you’re sexually harassing me.”
The way she whisperssexuallymakes my cock strain against my zipper. “Have I asked you to do anything you don’t want to do?”
“No.”
Thank fuck. “Did I give you any ultimatums about your job?”
She softens in my fists and shakes her head. “No.”
“If I do, I want you to hire a lawyer and sue the hell out of me, okay?”
An ingenuous giggle releases the last of her tension, and she finally looks up at me again. “I’m serious. You report harassment directly to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. They have an office by the courthouse downtown. If I ever do anything that makes you think you’re going to be fired, head straight there. I’m going to email you the address and this promise, so you’ll have it in writing that our relationship doesn’t have anything to do with your job.”
She squints at me. “You’re serious, aren’t you?”
“As hell, angel.”
All the doubt melts away, replaced with a radiant smile. “I believe you.”
