Leaving him with that thought, I go out to find Octavious. The whole way to Octavious’s new office at the ski lodge, I’m thinking about that gorgeous woman. She’s sexy as fuck. She’s absolutely perfect.
I can see why men and women have crushes on her.
I walk into Octavious’s office without knocking.
“What did you find out?”
I smirk. “I’m pretty positive her bodyguard is in love with her. He’s constantly touching her.”
The boss shrugs. “Yeah, not our problem. Are you still taking the job?”
It is my turn to consider my options. I want to be around this woman as much as I can for some reason. She’s so sexy and I’m dying to taste her.
More than that, I felt something I haven’t felt in a long time. Passion. Electric currents rolling off of her in droves.
“Yeah. I’m going to be busy with this for the next week.”
He shrugs again. “Not concerned. Get the money upfront.”
Chapter Four
Larysa
I’m standing in the middle of my home in Greece and I feel how much my home has been tainted. It isn’t the same as it once was. My home is just walls now.
Emilio is standing behind me and taps me on the shoulder. His being here is making everything real for me. “Want to give me a tour?”
I turn to look at him while holding my jacket tighter across my body. I’m suddenly aware of how big my home is but with Emilio here, everything feels smaller. It feels tighter.
“Yeah, sure.”
I walk him through the kitchen, living room, sitting room, my recording studio, my safe room off of my recording studio and then finally the bedrooms. I point to the one off of my room and open the door.
“This is your room while here,” I whisper suddenly nervous. His room is way too close to my bedroom making me even more aware of how close he is to me.
He smirks. “Thanks, Larysa. Which one is yours?”
I nod to the room off to the left next to the stairs. Cautiously, I push open the door to show him the room and the way he walks in just tells me everything he wanted to look for more reasons than just my protection.
When I bought the home, I spent a lot of time decorating for it to look like my perfect home. I’m native to Greece and Greece will always be my home. I wanted the colors to be blue and white, Greek colors, along with a nice sized tank in my room.
The tank is adjacent to the fireplace nestled into the wall under the television. Inside the fish tank, I spent a lot of time choosing fish that would support serenity. The fish are colorful, calming and everything I wanted.
In the corner of my room, my closet is situated. Emilio takes the time to look at the closet, the fireplace and then back to the fish tank. He eyes me up and down with a wicked crooked grin on his full lips. I see his eyes flickering to the bed.
My insides are all over the place since it has been a long time since I’ve had sex. I’m overly frustrated.
“So, yeah. This is my room.”
His fingers trace on the bedspread before stopping at the pillows. “Nice room.”
I shrug. “I’m not here nearly enough. I’m glad I was able to find someone to look in on my fish while I’m gone.” I don’t know why I’m rambling but I feel as if I have to explain things to him. I feel like I have to tell him everything.
“What is your schedule for tomorrow?” Emilio asks.
“I have show practice in the morning and then a workout. I should be done around four. After, I’m going to dinner with a friend I’ve had forever,” I let him know.
“I’ll be ready to go to practice at eight. See you in the morning,” he instructs before turning around.
