Page 15 of Recklessly In Love With A Ruthless Savage

The meeting went just as I expected it to go except for one beautiful distraction. The employees that weren’t up to par were excused and the ones that stayed would hopefully be able to meet the requirements of the job they were assigned. If not, they would be out on their asses right behind their incompetent coworkers. I tried my best to remain focused during the meeting but the one person I had been dying to see again had my attention from the moment I stepped in the room and we locked eyes.

Even in her scrubs she was captivating. She drew everyone’s attention in any room she entered. She was a thick beauty with curves for days, intelligence and sex appeal to go with it.Memories of her ass bouncing as I fucked her from the back against the window of my suite had my dick stiffening. Looking at her face to keep my eyes off her curves didn’t help much either. If I had to guess, she looked to be in her mid-twenties with her smooth chocolate skin with freckles that pepper her cheeks and almond shaped eyes that gave her a youthful appearance.

The kicker was the beauty mark that rested on the right side of her thick pouty lips. I took her entire body as I seated myself, every curve, dimple and curl of her hair. Breaking my gaze from her I refocused my energy on the task at hand. Getting sidetracked by one of my employees wasn’t on the agenda for me, so I did what I had trained myself to do, and that was shut myself off to anything and anyone that could knock me off my square. And based on my time with her, she could do just that.

I was able to get through the meeting without any further interruptions. The fear in the room was almost palpable as I laid out my plan for the future of Timberline Springs. I had never planned to lead with fear, but it was beneficial. If my staff was fearful they tended not to fuck-up as much. And right now, I would use that fear to keep everything professional with the gorgeous beauty in front of me.

“How about you guys introduce yourselves before we get started,” Janelle said to the nursing team. With a soft clearing of her throat the heartbreaker I had been trying to ignore spoke and her voice was like silk.

“Good morning, my name is Nova Travers. As you probably know, I’ve been the director of nursing here since last April. I’m looking forward to working with all of you and would like to say that I am very appreciative of any knowledge you all will provide us. Whatever you can do that will allow me to be a better leader, I’m all for it,” she said.

I tried to remain nonchalant, but just being in her presence again made it hard for me to keep my wall up.

“You will be reporting directly to me,” I said before my brain even processed what had just come out of my mouth.

“Are you sure? I thought I would be reporting to your general manager,” she asked with her brows bunched together.

“Both you and the administrator will be reporting to me. Is that a problem? " I asked, never taking my eyes from hers. Normally, I wouldn’t have repeated myself, but memories of her bouncing on my dick made me give her a pass on questioning me.

“No, sir, " she said softly, looking me directly in my eyes, making my balls tighten and my dick jump. She had to know what she was doing by calling me that.

“Okay, now that we know who will be reporting to who. How about the rest of the team please introduce themselves?” Janelle said, grinning hard as hell.

We finished the introductions and discussed the current condition of the facility. We went over the last state survey and how we could do better next time. Janelle reviewed a couple of new procedures we would be rolling out and then we exchanged contact information leaving a call log available and hierarchy of who to call first and for what. I was pleased with the team Nova had put together in such a short time. With a few minor adjustments this facility would be a force to be reckoned with under her leadership.

“When have you ever had one of your DONs reporting directly to you?” Janelle asked as we left the office for the night.

The meetings had lasted most of the day and we hadn't reached our office until after six that evening. The day was long and boring and with it being the beginning of the purchase there would be more to come.

“She’s fairly new to the role of director, and I just wanted to make sure that she had everything she needed to be a success," I said, somewhat honestly.

“You like her, don’t you?" she sang.

“No, and why would you say that?” She looked at me with her face screwed up like I was stupid.

“Okay, so remember the woman I told you about from the Gala?” I asked, waiting for her to get on my ass.

“Oh my god, that’s her? You fucked her, didn’t you? That’s why you want her reporting directly to you.” She laughed. It's about time. We were worried about you. Del was getting ready to download a dating app on your phone” she laughed.

“I don’t need to date to get a nut. You and I both know that’s really all I have time for,” I said.

“You’ve already proven yourself as owner of Phoenix. You’re 34 years old, Crew. It’s time for you to start a family,” she said.

“You sound like the old man.”

“That’s because he’s right. So what happened at the resort?” she asked.

“Let's just say it was great until it wasn’t,” I said leaving it at that. I wasn’t one to gossip with my friends let alone one that acted like my mother at every turn. Besides the way Nova ran from me that night I don’t think she was interested in anything more than what we shared.

“Yeah, okay, but think about this. She could be just what you need. I know your grandfather is still pushing for you to get married. Why not ask her out on a real date to see if she could be interested in more? You’ve already sampled the goods and clearly you’re interested. Based on your performance at the meeting, anyway.”

“I’ll think about it.” We would have to do some research before I even considered her as an option. Maybe spending time with her on a professional level would give me the fix I neededto move along. My life wasn’t set up for a relationship at the moment, so I would do my best to keep everything professional with Ms. Nova Travers like she wanted. Even if I wanted nothing more than to have her on her knees as she gagged around my dick. Fuck, I would have to clear my mind of all improper thoughts of her before I met with her again.

“Wonderful, because contrary to what you believe, you deserve to be happy and in love again.

“I know,” I said.

“What took you so long to come and see me, grandson?” My grandfather, Bruno, asked as he stirred the pot of chili he was putting the finishing touches on. My grandfather was known far and wide for his home cooking. It was something that he had shared with me as a small boy coming to live with him after my parents passed. Every Sunday he would make us dinner while we sat and caught up.
