Too Late
It is afternoon when a large bouquet is carried into my office.
A warm feeling goes through me, I know exactly who it comes from. Kaylah points the man where to put it, signs for receipt and looks at me from under her eyes. I ignore her, take out a flower and smell blissful.
Seeing that I don't intend to explain the sender of my present to her, she turns with a knowingly face and walks to her own workspace.
Dordrich! This guy makes sure I don't forget him. Like I even can after what we shared a few hours ago. I still blush when I think about it. My phone rings on my desk. “Mr. Fellogan on line three, Loraine,” I hear Kaylah announce. Quickly I press the button and Dordrich's deep voice comes through the phone.
“Princess, are you okay? Want to have dinner with me tonight?”.
I’m shocked by his invitation, I had thought that our relationship would only be based on hot sex until the attraction wore off. This is definitely not a smart decision, dining brings us in public. In addition, I don't know if I will be able to keep my gaze neutral, I am so strongly attracted to Dordrich, everyone will notice that in me.
Despite all this, I can only give one answer. "Dordrich, yes", I say hoarsely.
"Good. I'll pick you up at seven. Think of me, princess.” And with that he's gone, I'm left with all kinds of butterflies in my stomach.
I don't know how this will end yet, what I know for sure is that I'm going to enjoy my time with Dordrich as much as I can. The attraction he has to me is unbelievable, the sex is the best I've ever had. My day can't get any better, even Kaylah fails to arouse my irritation with her endless nagging about the flowers.
Oooh Gosh! Completely forgot to thank Dordrich for his gift, both gifts actually. The Ruby.
I lied to Danner that I bought it in China, luckily he didn't ask much about it. While that's pretty odd, this fiancé of mine is suspicious as hell. I actually don't like to lie to Danner, we have built such an incredible trust in each other, one that I cherish. And only through a temporary infatuation have I jeopardized all of that.
Oh my, take care of it later.
Now I must focus on my dinner with Dordrich tonight. I still have a sexy one piece with an open back in the closet, the saleswoman was staring at me with an open mouth when I tried it on. That's also the effect I want to have on Dordrich tonight, I want to seduce him and show him what he could have had he not been married.
“Kaylah!” I call my secretary to me.
Within seconds she is standing in front of my desk. “Uhm, Loraine, I want to remind you that in addition to an emergency button under your desk, there is also an intercom on your desk that allows you to communicate with me. Yelling isn't always effective," she tells me sweetly. I choose again to ignore her words. “I'm going to leave work a little earlier today. I'm having a private dinner and want to rest first," I let her know. “Do you already have a dress? Do I have to get one for you?”, she asks like the perfect secretary. “Should I wake you up? What time will you dine?".
"Seven o'clock. And I don't know exactly where we're going so I'll stick to one of the pieces in my wardrobe. Not everyone received a sudden bonus today to have a big spending.” She purses her lips, choosing to ignore my last comment.
"I'll wake you up at half-past six so you have plenty of time to get ready." With that she walks out of my office, I follow her after a few minutes. “Aziel handles urgent matters. Only try to contact me in case of the place is being burnt down”, I tell her as I pass her office.
Before I leave, I want to visit Aziel in his office.
When I'm at his door, he's busy on his phone. He beckons me to move forward and take a seat in the nearest chair. “We can buy the shares at my suggested price or just aggressively on the stock market. You have a choice. I know you are a smart businessman and will choose the first option. Quotes fluctuate unpredictably on the stock market and you can end up very low,” I hear him say in a businesslike tone.
I don't know who's on the other end of the line, but Aziel clearly has a strong hold on him. And knowing him, he won't let go so easily. This prey is still writhing in his death struggle, but Aziel still gives him a life preserver.
This staffer of mine! I’m so proud of him. He knows we are not doing diehard business, always considerate to competitors.
While he's still talking to the other side, our eyes lock. Aziel is perfect. Drop dead handsome, husband material, intelligent and some other good character traits. If I hadn't met the controlling Danner first, I would certainly have chosen Aziel as my chosen partner. That he lusts after me and wants me as a woman is obvious, he never misses a moment to let me know that.
At the time I let him go when Danner demanded it because Aziel didn't have enough sexual experience and I couldn't muster the patience to be his teacher. Danner offered me more and I wasn't in the settling stage at the time, so I agreed to cut off Aziel as a mate.
And now with Dordrich present, who holds all my senses, Aziel is pushed even further away. But he had clearly matured over the past months, gained enough experience in one way or another to continue to fascinate me. He demonstrated that in our last episode.
Too late.
Dordrich owns me now and I don't know if Aziel will still be available after this fire is out. Many women have their eyes on him and he won't wait for me forever.
“A million for your thoughts”, I suddenly hear him say. I can barely hide the longing I was looking at him....
