He was hard.
My nipples tightened. I pressed my thighs together, trying to ignore the ache suddenly forming between them.
“Reid,” I chastised. “Remember where we are.”
“I own this company. This building.” His voice was low and gruff, and his mouth was relentless as he embarked on a downward path on my chest. I circled my arms tight around his neck, blocking him. He looked up, amusement dancing in his eyes.
“What are you gonna do now, huh?”
His eyes flashed. “Bend you over this desk and fuck you.”
The edge of the desk pressed against my ass, his cock against my lower belly.
Right. There was no ignoring that ache now.
“I’ve been thinking about that since you were in here the first time.”
“Wow. You were good at hiding it. The only vibe I got from you was irritated.”
“I didn’t want to be attracted to you, but I was anyway.”
“Music to my ears,” I teased. “However, I’m a proper lady. I want to be wined and dined before allowing you to have your wicked way with me.”
He straightened up. “That can be easily arranged.”
“Well, unfortunately, I already had dinner, so that ship has sailed tonight.”
Smiling wolfishly, he whispered against my lips, “I can think of one or two things I could offer as a bribe.”
Sighing, I stepped out of his arms. “I want to map out the next steps. Think about what outlets to approach, a new angle.”
“It’s Friday night. You can think about this again on Monday. You don’t work on weekends, remember?”
“Yeah, but when it comes to you, it’s not work anymore.”
“Now, what kind of boyfriend would I be if I didn’t keep you here?”
“What?” I giggled.
“Otherwise you’ll go home and slave away at your laptop.”
“Ufff... since when do you know me so well?” That was exactly what I would do. “So... how do you plan on keeping me here?”
“Second dinner?”
“And then maybe you can persuade me to spend the night here. You think I don’t know where you’re going with this?”
“I’m that transparent, huh?” He placed his hands on my shoulders. I shimmied, aware that if I didn’t pay attention, this sexy man mig
ht somehow end up ambushing me against the welcome desk again.
“Just a little. Fine, you win. I won’t say no to a second dinner, and some quality Reid time.”
Truthfully, I just couldn’t say no to him, and that scared me.
