Just as I’m finishing up on some transcripts of another case that a very wealthy and influential client has called and begged for my help with, a knock interrupts my concentration.Before I can even call out to come in, the door opens and my angel walks in like she owns the place.At this point, she could ask for it and I’d sign it right over to her in a heartbeat.
“Hey handsome,” she greets me as she walks around my desk with that sway in her hips that makes me groan every time I zone in on those curves.Everly plants a soft, quick kiss to my cheek and before I can reach out and grab those luscious hips, she pulls out of reach and rests on the end of my desk.
Oh, the memories we could make on this desk.
She’s wearing a short off the shoulder dark teal dress, matched with silver heels.Her hair is curled and styled over her exposed right shoulder.Edible, that’s what she looks like, and I plan on devouring her all night long.
“Hello gorgeous,” I say, making a show of looking her up and down.Her firm trimmed legs are out for me to stare at and I can only picture what they’re going to look like around my waist.“Ready to get some dinner?”
“Only if you are.”Everly eyes me with a half hooded lustful gaze, and I almost clear my entire desk and lay her out on it.She’s playing a very dangerous game with me and if I wasn’t someone who prided themselves in total control then I’d do just that.
Pushing away from my desk, I quickly adjust my dick then grab for my suit jacket on the back of my chair.I plan to wine and dine her tonight and if I don’t get out of this office, we’ll never make it out of here.
“After you, angel.”I gesture towards the door and once I see her hips sway away from me, I know I’m going to be a walking hard-on all night.Maybe we should eat at the penthouse so no other fuckers can see her like this.
“Have a great weekend, Ms.Ruby,” Everly sweetly says to my secretary.They seem to get along well together ever since they first met over a month ago.
“Goodnight Ruby, have a wonderful weekend,” I say in passing as I reach for Everly, making sure to tuck her into my side.
“Have a nice evening you two,” she cheerfully says to us both.She already has her orders not to call this weekend, and I hope for her job’s sake she passes off everything to Olivia if there’s a major ordeal on our hands.
As the elevator doors open, Olivia pops out with a stack of papers in her hand.She finally looks up and sees me.
“Oh, good I was just coming to see you,” she states looking back down at the documents.
“It’ll have to wait until Monday,” I tell her and move us around and step into the box.
“Monday?”she questions then looks up.“Oh, hi Everly, sorry I was distracted.”
“Hey Olivia,” my angel greets.
“I’m off until Monday and not to be disturbed,” I tell her, giving her a pointed look.
“Really?”She raises an eyebrow, looking at me like I’m crazy.
“Really,” I say deadpan.“I told Ruby to route any emergencies to you.”I wink as she purses her lip together.
The doors close and I can’t help the chuckle that leaves me at her shocked face.I rarely take any time off, so I know I’m throwing her for a loop.
“If you need to do some work, I’m okay to wait,” Everly offers, and it makes me adore her even more.She’s so understanding that sometimes I wonder if she truly is real.Most of the females I’ve experienced want all the attention and throw a fit to be the central focus.
“You are my priority this weekend.We are overdue to have some much-needed quality time together, without all the interruptions.”
Dale is standing at the curb with the back door opened to our black sedan for the evening.
“Evening Mr.Thorne, Ms.Bryant,” Dale greets us and helps Everly in the car.
“Everything all set for tonight?”I ask as I walk around the car to enter on the other side.
“Yes sir, everything is set according to Tina, and the restaurant has your reservation confirmed and is waiting for your arrival.”
“Good.”
“Where are we going to eat?”Everly asks, the excitement in her voice makes me feel like a kid again.Being around her is like experiencing everything for the first time.I forget that she’s not used to the fancier things that I’ve lived with since my parents adopted me as a kid.
“Have you heard of Osteria Mozza?”She shakes her head.“It’s an amazing Italian restaurant.”
“I love Italian.”She wrinkles her nose for a second.“You know I’d be happy with anything, right?We don’t always have to go with something expensive and over the top.”
