Page 7 of His Wild Seduction

“Meredith, I am trying to offer you an out of all this. But unless you are honest with me, I will follow through with my plans to gut Gray Corps and lay off all its employees.”

“You wouldn’t,” I gasped.

But he would.

The look in his eyes said as much.

“What do you want?” I asked.

“The truth about everything. We need to talk, Meredith.”

“About what? Why do you even care about this? What do you want from me?”

“You seem to be concerned with your stepfather’s employees. Start by telling me what you have to offer,” he said.

My mouth opened and closed, eyebrows raised, and anger warred with total shock inside of me.

This fucker.

“I can’t imagine I have anything you want, Mr. Aziz,” I replied, trying for a formality I did not feel.

“Agree to disagree, Little Red. But, to streamline things, why don’t you start by telling me what happened to you? Where have you been?”

“That has nothing to do with this,” I began, but he interrupted me.

“It has everything to do with this,” he growled.

“We’re here to talk about Gray Corp.”

“We are here to talk about whatever the fuck I want to talk about, Meredith,” he replied. “And I want the truth. Now.”

He wanted the truth. Well, so did I.

CHAPTER TWO

JOSEF

Being in close proximity to Meredith was wreaking havoc with my entire being.

No, I wasn’t a virgin.

I wasn’t a kid.

And I hadn’t been chaste over the last fifteen fucking years.

But desire coursed through me like molten lava, melting my reserve and hardening my cock.

Fuck, I hadn’t felt that goddamn hard in years. If I didn’t calm down, I was likely to bust the seam of my too tight pants.

Why did she have to look so good?

Goddamn.

I craved this woman like I craved no other. Hungered for her even when she looked at me like she hated me.

That was okay. I could deal with her hatred. It would have been so much worse if she’d been indifferent.

Fact was, Meredith looked good.
