“She talks about me, doesn’t she?”

He nods. “Yeah, you hired a new assistant to work alongside her, correct?”

“Yes, just recently.”

“Then, she must be BlacqQueen333.”

“Of course, she is.”What an appropriate name for such a strong, independent, Black woman.I lose myself in the website as I start scrolling. “Excellent work, Oscar.”

“Oh, thank you, sir.”

He leaves me to my research and my thoughts.My plan is working,I realized as I read Ayana’s comment about me being a douchebag.Damn, I just wish I had a cooler code name than Mister Bossy Pants.

I want to know everything about Ayana. I close out the page and open up the Facebook account I hardly used. I type in Ayana Banks. My lips turn up at the corners. Thank God her page isn’t private. I browse through picture after picture.

In one picture, she’s looking up at the sky, but I see her supple lips turned upward into a smile. On another one, she’s at the beach. Again, the perfect angle of her profile catches the ideal position. In another one, she looks full at the camera with her bottom lip caught between her teeth. Again, I smile, but all I want to do is to feel her plump lips against mine again.

I zoom in on her face, and my heart swells with deep affection for this woman. The asshole cocky attitude I put on around her is a farce. Running a finger along my bottom lip, I stroll through more of Ayana’s page. The more I see, the more I desire her.

Ayana Banks is a challenge. But I’m up to the challenge of winning and owning the one woman as strong-willed as I am.

I’m at a place in my life where I want more than dating different women and one-night stands. I want one woman to come home to every night, and I want to wake up the following day with her in my arms. I crave a family and want to one day have a little girl and a son of my own. There is one woman that I wish to have that with in the future. That’s Ayana. But before I can make that happen, I must get her to know the real man I can be. Not the one who plays games to irk her nerves. But the one who will wine and dine her and eventually win her heart, body, and soul.

The End For Now
