“Of course not!” Roni was no prude, but she wasn’t in the habit of watching nasty videos at work either.
“Well, that’s just one of many. You have several of those on your hard drive. And those sites are notorious for spyware. You need to find out who’s using your computer and put a stop to it. So far it’s only been a nuisance, but it could lead to r
eal problems, like a virus that’ll wipe out your entire hard drive.”
Roni stepped back and crossed her arms over her chest. “It’s only me and my assistant, Melissa, and I can’t believe she’d do that.” She shook her head as she thought of her shy assistant. “No, I won’t believe it. There has to be another explanation.”
“Maybe it’s not Melissa. Maybe it’s someone else. There is a way for you to find out, if you’re interested.”
“How?”
“I can install a motion-sensitive webcam. All you do is hit a few keys when you leave the office and you can catch the horny bugger in his tracks.”
Part of her didn’t want to know. It was way too creepy to think Melissa could be sitting at her desk getting off on dirty videos. Still, Roni knew she needed to put a stop to it. The idea of someone masturbating while sitting in her black leather chair made her queasy. “You can do this for me?”
“Sure, I can handle it. If you’d rather, I can give you some instructions and you can do it yourself. It’s not hard to set up.”
Roni went back to the chair across from the desk and sat down. The close proximity was beginning to overwhelm her senses. “I can turn on my computer and use a few of the programs. Beyond that, electronics boggle my mind. No, I’d rather you set it up.”
“No problem. I need to pick up a few things, but I can come back later today if you want. That way it’ll be in place by Monday. I can update your virus protection then as well.”
“Will this be expensive?”
He shrugged and tapped a few more keys on her computer, before he stood. “I’ll just charge you for the camera. The virus update is on me. My tech should’ve talked to you about this when he came out the other day.”
Now she felt bad for being such a bitch. She’d assumed the tech they’d sent out was inept. Who would have guessed someone was looking at dirty videos on her work computer? “Thanks, I appreciate it. As it is, I’ll be here quite late, so stop back anytime.”
“See you in a few then.” He stood and Roni followed suit. As she walked him back to the front door, she realized she didn’t know his name. The other tech had worn a name tag, but this dark-haired hunk didn’t have one. “I never got your name.”
“Jake Cornick.”
Roni quickly put two and two together. “You’re the J.C. in J.C.’s Computer Repair?”
“Yes, ma’am. None of my other techs wanted to come. I think maybe my other tech was a little embarrassed to have to tell you about the spyware problem.”
Heat flooded her cheeks. “They must all think I’m quite the nympho, huh?”
He chuckled. “They’re too smart to say anything inappropriate around me. They know I’d fire them for talking about a client that way. But, I suspect there’s been…talk.”
Roni covered her face as humiliation engulfed her. “I’ll never be able to face any of them again.”
Rough palms covered her hands and slowly pulled them down. When their gazes met, Roni was surprised by the tenderness in his pale green depths. “Don’t worry about it. I’ll set them straight.”
She tugged on her hands until he took the hint and dropped them. Cold emptiness filled her as he stepped back. “Thank you for your help, Mr. Cornick. I really appreciate it.”
“Jake,” he insisted softly.
“Jake, then,” she said, her voice husky with desire. She watched as he reached into his back pocket and pulled out his wallet. When he flipped it open, pulled out a business card and handed it to her, Roni eagerly took it. Their fingers brushed and she swore sparks flew. Easy girl.
“See you in a few, Doc.”
“Sure,” she murmured.
He grinned and opened the door. It was all Roni could do to keep from reaching out and grabbing a handful of his tight, muscular ass.
Damn, the man was delicious. Roni smacked herself out of her lusty haze and went back to her office. As she sat down, she swore she could still smell him. A seductive, woodsy scent that wrapped around her like a warm blanket.
“You’re losing it, girl,” she muttered to herself. “Get back to work or it’ll be a longer night than you planned.”
