“Are you asking this so I’ll still give you that wedding bonus I’d promised?”

She laughed, and I sipped my coffee again. “No. I’m asking because I love my sister and hope for her happiness more than anything.” Her exhale sounded loud in my ear. “And, I trust you. Otherwise, I never would have allowed Jaz to work for you.”

A pleasant tingle warmed my chest, but I grinned. “So you’re saying you want to hire me to pleasure your sister?”

“Ha! As if.”

“I’ll do the friend-zone touching if she’s up for it for free because I adore you.”

“You’re a pretty cool cat too, Micah.”

Fifteen minutes later and still grinning, I headed into the office rather than taking off for the day like I’d intended to do in order to avoid Dina’s baby sister. I kept glancing at the clock, fidgeting while waiting for Jasmine’s arrival rather than getting some work done.

A car engine sounded outside in the driveway, and a strange twinge lightened my chest. Minutes later, the outside door opened.

The scent of chocolate-covered strawberries swept into my office on the cross breeze from my open window allowing in the spring’s warmth. I filled my lungs, my mouth watering and cock swelling. “Jasmine?” I called a few minutes later, having given her time to settle in.

She appeared in the doorway in a similar button-down and skirt as on Wednesday, her hair pulled back in that damn bun I wanted to unravel and watch as a blonde waterfall fell over her bare shoulders.

I held up a file as my dick swelled. “Medical forms and signatures for the two new clients this weekend. They’ll need to be scanned and uploaded to the system.”

She moved across the room and took the file from me, keeping her hand on the opposite end. “I’ll do it right away.”

“Also—” I pulled in closer to my desk to hide what she did to me “—see if Anthony is available to fill in with Mrs. Mayfield next Friday night. If so, contact her and ask if the switch will be okay.”

I blinked at my unplanned order, wondering where the fuck it had that come from.

“Sure thing.”

I nodded, and she left, her fine backside drawing and holding my gaze. I lusted to sink balls deep inside of her—pussy, ass—whatever and whenever she allowed.

Fuck. Another hand scrub along my jaw prickled my palm with too-long whiskers. Temptation to fire her just so I could pursue her toyed in my brain, but I’d made a promise to Dina. I’d also told Jasmine I wouldn’t touch her since shedidn’twant anyone’s hands on her.

I had no choice but to simply be her friend. Set her at ease and get to know her. Eventually, she might realize that I was no threat. Maybe at some point, she would be open to the casual friend-like touching Dina hoped might happen between the two of us.

It was going to be a long fucking day since all I could hinge on was hope—and I couldn’t stop thinking about how smooth her skin felt on my fingertips. What she tasted like on my tongue—

“Control, Fox,” I muttered at myself. “The fuck is wrong with you?”

Jasmine.

But she was also so goddamned right my balls ached.

Sunday—man cave, sports day arrived. I’d sent out the text for my buddies to swing by, but Cooney was the only one available. He brought fresh-baked chocolate chip cookies from Becky, and I chowed until my stomach turned cankerous.

I groaned and settled back in my old recliner I refused to replace. “That woman of yours sure knows how to bake.”

“Goddamn right.” Cooney patted his abs, his deep voice grumbling.

I chuckled and sipped my beer but set it aside when I realized I wasn’t going to fit anything else down my esophagus. “Are you honestly happier having her in your life?” I asked even though his face betrayed him when he’d used to be a stoic, closed book.

“Fuck yes. She’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me.”

A twist of jealousy tried to make its way through my gut. I thought of Blake, Reid and Jarod, all of whom had left Elite after losing their hearts. Reid had inherited a little girl when he’d hooked up with Jessica, and they also had a baby of their own. Jarod and Christine hung on each other every time I saw them. They all used to sicken me, but the mental image of Jasmine clinging to me like that definitely changed my mind.

My cock twitched, but it was the thought of the trust she would be showing with that kind of action that appealed to me most. Imagining the D/s relationship we could have if I helped her heal from whatever wounds scared her filled me with a desire I’d never experienced before.
