Love a Boss (Boss Duet 2)

Her eyes twinkled as her smile turned up in a mischievous way. “What ways do you have in mind?”

“Let me spend the rest of my life showing you.” I looked down at her outfit. “What’s with the get up?”

She smiled, trailing a finger down my chest. “Well, I thought we could explore your Star Wars fantasies.” Perfect. This woman was perfect. How in the fuck I lucked out by getting her, I would never know. She stepped back and did a slow turn. “I’m not wearing panties under this.” Her eyes glinted mischievously. “You like?” she asked, trailing her fingertips along the thin gold bands on her bare hips.

/> I yanked her to me again with the chain. “I fucking love.”

I kissed her again as the whole room faded in the background.

The End

EPILOGUE

PENNY

After the initial rush of dealing with my father and the inheritance, things began to settle. I’d never been happier having Theo by my side. The Lopa boomed with business and had finally became one of Miami’s coolest hotspots.

Dex on the other hand had a world of karma beating him over his burly body. We ended up pressing charges of his attack on Theo, and then after that his whole world crumbled. He was immediately removed from the country club he loved so much and served a small sentence. Xavier lost his license to practice law.

June was shocked to learn about her son’s behavior and apologized over and over to Theo for everything. She still hung to the ideal Dex could be reformed, but I wasn’t holding my breath.

Life with Theo and Lucy was what I focused on. He finally let me see his lists, and I fell in love with him even more after reading each list over and over.

My favorite list was one I carried around with me in my wallet. It was the perfect ending to our story, well almost.

He’d planned a secret trip which took us North on ninety-five. As he drove, I pulled out the list and read over it a few more times.

Things I’m thankful for

Lopa

Bar, cars, and walls

Turtles

Freckles

Slave Leia outfit

Silver wigs

Lifeguard stations

My Boss

When we stepped out of the car, I smiled up to the man I loved more than anything.

Sure we had a rocky start, but now we were on the same page and nothing would change that, ever. “Penny, this way.” He led me out onto the beach as the sun rose over the horizon. After we held onto each other while the waves crashed he whispered in my ear, “What do you think of this location?”

I spun around to gaze at him. “For what?”

“Your turtle sanctuary.”

My heart seized as he stared at me. He drew closer and planted his lips on mine. I couldn’t believe my own eyes when he led me to a small facility.

“This is the future site of your very own sanctuary, Penny.”

It was perfect and not far from Lopa.
