Chapter Nine

Ethan

I can’t help but grin when I see Kyla sitting at her desk the next morning. Grayson had told us about their date, and I’m glad that it worked out for them. I can’t wait to show her what I have planned tonight.

She gives me a shy smile as I walk up to her desk and lean down to give her a kiss.

I could definitely get used to having her here when I come to work knowing that she’s only a few feet away. She is easily becoming an addiction.

We all have been through a hard time in the past, but I was lonesome in a way that I can’t explain.

Between Grayson’s smile on his face when he came home last night, and my initial gut feeling about her, I just know that Kyla is the one for us. I feel completely drawn to her.

Just taking things slow is going to drive me crazy, especially with the outfits she wears to work. The tight and short skirts she wears hug her hips, and they usually end mid-thigh so that you could easily bend her over and have that easy access.

By the time I get to my office door, I am hard as a fucking rock.

Fuck, if it wasn’t for my men, I would end up with blue balls by the time we finally had a piece of her. I’m a patient man, but I want to worship her body for hours. I know everyone else feels the same way.

I make sure the plans for the date I picked are all in order before I get started on work.

Kyla wanted to see what we were like individually and I think I have chosen something that I love, but that she will also love as well.

Really, I just have a couple more things to do before I steal her for the whole day. The other guys already know what I have planned so all the calls and paperwork are going to be handled by them.

After answering a couple emails, I look at the time and figure that we just have over an hour until we have to be there, but I should take her to get something to eat first.

Leaving my office, I go to say “bye” to my men first, but they are all standing at Kyla’s desk flirting with her. I roll my eyes at them but they just smirk.

“Hey, you get her all day. We needed to get our fill in,” Asher says with a grin.

“What do you mean? What does that mean?” Kyla asks turning around to look at me with wide eyes.

I shrug. “Well, our date starts now. It’s really something that should be enjoyed during the day.”

Kyla tilts her head curiously at me. “Okay, now you have me wondering. What do you have planned?” she asks slowly.

I shake my head at her. “Nope, I’m not telling. You will know soon enough.”

“But, what about all of this work? The phones?” she asks with a hint of panic in her eyes.

“Don’t worry about it, sweetheart. We can answer our phones for the day,” Levi says, and she immediately relaxes at his words.

“Well alright. What’s the worst that can happen?” she says grabbing her purse.

“That’s the spirit,” I reply dryly.

“Sorry, Yay, Woo hoo!” she says throwing her hands in the air.

I narrow my eyes at her mockingly. “Better,” I reply.

“What about my clothes? Do I need to change?” She stops before we can make it out the door.

“Maybe some pants instead of a skirt, as much as I love seeing your hips sway in it,” I say as I bite my lip.

“Well, we will need to stop by my house then. Do we have time?” she asks as we head toward the elevator.
