Page 46 of Bully Billionaire Dragon

Last night was life-changing, and I am not going to let it go. Taylor is going to be mine.

Ours, my dragon sniffs.

Ours, of course.

I make it to my office in record time and try to think of a game plan for approaching Lex, but there is a note on my desk.

Meeting at 9 a.m.

That's in fifteen minutes. They must want to hear how the work dinner went. I can report it went amazingly, and after last night, there is no way this case can continue. Taylor wouldn’t sue me. Even if she did leave this morning. She could have had a variety of reasons for leaving.

I know she can’t hail a cab to save her life, but maybe Shane came and got her.

She has a job, just like I do, so maybe she rushed off to work.

I spend the remaining ten minutes coming up with sly ideas to get Taylor’s number from Lex without causing suspicion.

Eight fifty-eight hits and I head to the meeting room.

As I enter, Lex is in the middle of talking, but the room turns silent as I enter.

“I thought it didn’t start until nine?” I ask.

All eyes are on me, and not one looks pleased. Everyone is in the room, including Nic.

“Have a seat, TJ,” Lex says, pointing at the opposite end of the table where there is a lone chair, directly across from him.

My usual seat is empty, but I follow his command.

Sitting down, I try to think about what is going on.

“What were you all talking about before I entered?” I ask, curious.

“You,” Damon says with a grimace on his face.

My stomach drops. They were having a meeting about me.

“Why me?”

Lex shakes his head, “Tell us about the work dinner with Ms. Montgomery.”

I swallow. “It went really well.”

Lex raises an eyebrow.

“We went to the Mongolian place and had a few drinks. I found out some more about her and I think we really connected.”

The air shifts at my last sentence.

Everyone turns to look at Lex.

“Did you fuck her?” Lex asks, eyes glued to my own.

I try to remain neutral, but I know my eyes widen in shock.

How does he know?

It hasn’t even been twelve hours since Taylor and I had sex. There is no way he can tell.
