Page 77 of Love From Left Field (Knights of Passion)

Her happiness faded immediately. “Oh, I thought maybe we could do some good together.”

He gripped her arms. “I don’t want to work for you, Miranda. Because then I can’t do this.”

He lowered his head and kissed her, pouring all of his love for her into the kiss, willing her to feel it too. She wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him closer, matching him kiss for kiss. After a long moment, he heard a noise and broke the contact.

Several people from the office stood around them in a semicircle, Maggie, Seamus, Roger, Cole. They were clapping and cheering.

She blushed and hid her face in his chest. He put a finger under her chin and lifted her head to meet his gaze.

“I think we can work together and share the occasional kiss.” Her words were hesitant, but hope shone in her eyes.

“On one condition. You don’t tell me what to do.”

She jerked back. “I own this team, buddy. You work for me.”

“Withyou. We work together.”

“I can work with that.” She smiled and kissed him.
