“I did. I’m just choosing to ignore all of it. Now, if you’re done interrupting my day?—”

“Oh, I’m so not done. In fact, I’ve barely begun,” she interrupts.

She stomps forward and sits on my desk, pushing my files to the floor in the process. My lips curl up in amusement, which surprises me. I try to remind myself that I should be angry about her not only barging in here but talking back to me in such a callous manner.

Instead, like some depraved horn dog, all I can think about is how I want to bend her over this desk and fuck the attitude out of her.

I grasp at the beads of the chaplet wrapped around my wrist to keep myself from reaching out for her. I can practically hear my resolve cracking.

“You have to call Carlos off, or I won’t leave.”

Her eyes flash down to my lap just then, and I watch her eyes widen as she sees the now very noticeable bulge in the front of my slacks.

“You seem distracted, princess. Cat’s got your tongue?” I tease.

“No,” she says, trying to sound nonchalant, but I see the way she licks her lips. “Do you get off from annoying me? Or is it just that you were born a conceited, self-absorbed jerk? I’m trying to have an important discussion here, Gio…”

I chuckle. “You’re the one who is trying to have an important discussion. I’m not all that interested in anything that comes out of that bratty mouth of yours.”

Except when it’s moaning my name or making gagging sounds when it’s wrapped around my dick.

Shit. Now I’m picturing her on her knees, sucking my achingly hard cock into oblivion.

This isn’t going well. I need her out of here now.

She rolls her eyes at me. “So now I’m a brat? You didn’t seem to think so when you had your tongue down my throat last night…”

“Trust me. It is an action I fully regret.” Liar. I’m this close to spreading those gorgeous legs and sinking my tongue into her wet heat.

God help me. Why did he have to punish me this way?

I can have any woman I want. Any, at the snap of my finger. Why did it have to be the only one I had absolutely no business being with?

I shouldn’t even look at her twice, but I find myself having the twisted desire to ravish her completely. Entirely. Savagely.

To have her writhing and shaking in every position her tight little body can take me.

And the sickest part of it is, I know that once I have a taste of her, I won’t stop until I’ve successfully ruined her for any other man on the face of this earth.

If she had any sense, she’d turn around and walk right out the door, praying fervently that I forget her. But I have a feeling it’s slowly becoming too late. Aurora has engraved herself into my psyche, and the only way to exorcise her from my mind is to have my fill of her.

“You can’t treat me like a kid. If I were anyone else, you would have taken me home last night. So why this whole front now? That’s messed up,” she says.

“You’re right,” I concede.

Her eyebrows shoot up in surprise. “I am?”

I bite back my smile, choosing to shrug instead. “Yes, you are. It’s just hard to see you as an adult when I’ve always known you as Leo’s baby sister.”

“So you’ll call Carlos off?” she asks suspiciously.

She has every reason to be suspicious, especially because I have no plans of removing Carlos from her tail.

“Yes,” I lie smoothly.

Satisfied with my answer, she beams and then hops down from the desk with a triumphant smile. “See, that wasn’t so hard.”

“Hmm,” I say noncommittally.
