77|Burn Out Of Control
Eden didn't make it far at all when she heard Liam's rapid footsteps behind her, and in a heartbeat, he had her caged in his arms in a possessive embrace, and he crushed her mouth with his in a fiery, angry kiss.
She matched his hunger and anger and excitement, and it wasn't long before they were entangled on the couch, totally intoxicated and enraptured with each other.
"This is how good we'll be, Princess!" Liam kissed her neck, his hands running all over her body and down lower to her inner thigh, tracing a sensual line along her panty line.
"Tell me you don't want me—" He teased her, running his thumb sumptuously on her through her underwear, his voice low and intense, his eyes heavy with the same yearning Eden was pretty sure clouded hers.
"— And I'll let you go." He added as he leaned over and kissed her hard, igniting a swirling heat deep in her core.
"I—Umm—" Eden tried to protest, but good Lord, his tongue in her mouth and his roguish

On their way to Eden's place in Forrest Creek, Liam reminded her about the company's plans to sign Lydia Edwards as Anderson Logistics' brand ambassador. "How soon can we secure that meeting?" He asked, giving her a sidelong glance. "I haven't had a chance to chat to her," Eden admitted as she stared listlessly outside the window, at the high-rise apartments zooming by. "And frankly, I don't like using my connections—" Liam closed his eyes and breathed in hard, trying his best not lose his shit. But Eden was seriously testing his patience. "Listen to me carefully, Princess." He said, gritting his teeth. "Your insanely high salary hinges on this meeting." "But that's marketing's job." Eden insisted, her mouth set in a stubborn line as she crossed her arms and stared straight ahead. "And you are in the marketing area, aren't you?" Liam pointed out. "How many times do I have to tell you talent sourcing has tried many times to secure a mee

The digital display on the dash said it's 8:15 PM. It's late. But not late enough for Linda to have gone home already. Liam's appointment with her was scheduled for the day after tomorrow, but he couldn't wait that long. He had to chat with her ASAP. She didn't sound too impressed when he called her, but she agreed to a thirty-minute chat. The building was nearly empty, and he wasn't likely to run into anyone, so he took the public elevator to Linda's floor. "Couldn't this wait? We're supposed to meet in two days," she said as she showed him inside. "Nice to see you too, Linda." Liam smiled and headed straight to the couch. "And no, it couldn't wait. I have news!" He spent the first ten minutes of their spur of the moment meeting, updating his therapist on his two romantic evenings with Eden. Normally he liked to sit up for their chats, but today he wanted to act like a real patient and get his money's worth.
Begin Again 80|Best Laid Plans
The plan for Eden was to sneak into work very early, like the crack of dawn early, so she could return Liam's blazer without attracting too much attention, and maybe before he even came in because, after last night, she was confused as fuck, and needed a moment to work through her feelings and his proposal. But sometimes, even the best-laid plans can go awry, as Eden discovered. She overslept. And by the time she made it to work—dressed in a drab grey dress, her hair pulled back in a low messy bun—both the visitors' and staff parking lots were already packed to capacity, and the building was just as full. Trying to sneak into Liam's office was no longer an option. The seductive dragon was very likely already sitting on his throne, waiting for her to crawl to him and beg to be pleased, like he had last night. Boy, did he please her! She'd spent the whole night, tossing and turning, reliving every little moment on that couch, eve

There were many similarities between Eden and Zara. Like her, the head of HR wasn't the prettiest candle in the room, and she also had a questionable dress sense. But superficial qualities aside, they still had plenty in common. Zara was a young mom and a single parent, too. They'd chatted a few times in the elevators and corridors about their babies—both nineteen months old—and had even attempted a play date or two, but their conflicting schedules had put a brake on those plans. They weren't the best of friends. But other than Clara, Zara was probably the only other woman Eden is close to at work. Today though, Zara, sitting across from her in a sixteen-seater boardroom on the 35th floor, wasn't meeting with her as a friend and fellow member of the young Moms' Club. She had a tough message to deliver. After the usual standard check-in and confirming her mental wellbeing's well above average and her sanity meter was in the green range, Zara got to the heart of their chit chat. "

Still raw from her encounter with Lucy earlier and reeling from the warning she didn't see coming, Eden dreaded going back to the battleground, to the place where all the drama began, but she'd already missed out on three hours of work. Matthew's reports and minutes weren't going to type themselves. Gibby's training and handover session, too, wouldn't attend itself. With a loud sigh, she pushed her office door and stepped inside. Instead of being blown away by all the elegance surrounding her like she was earlier, Eden was suddenly filled with a rage so fierce if she didn't find something to distract herself, and if she didn't look for something to do, she was so convinced it would swallow her up. She glared at Liam's blazer on her desk, hating him a little. She knew it's irrational. But she needed someone to blame for her anger and hurt, and Liam was the perfect scapegoat. He should have left her broom closet the way it was, and he sh

"Come on! Don't tell me you've let that stupid rumour upset you." Liam said, returning her phone. "It's office gossip. It means nothing." "It means nothing when you're the boss. No one dares say anything bad about you!" Eden pointed out, hot, angry tears brimming in her eyes, fogging up her vision. "I'm not good at this job, and I try my best every day. But now, this stupid rumour has set me back ten years. My credibility has been shattered, my reputation ruined. I'm no longer Matthew's junior assistant. I'm just the new girl who got the job because she's sleeping with the big boss!" "Don't talk like that!" Liam growled. "You know it's not true!" "Isn't it, though?" Eden asked. "We both know why you hired me, and after last night can we honestly say it's not true? It was only a matter of time before we do. I suppose we have these rumours to thank. Now we can both come back to our senses." "Eden—" Liam tried to say, but she held up her hands. "

"Anderson!" Liam barked into the phone as he watched Eden through the window make her way back to her office. An office she now hated. An office he had no business messing with because she had loved it just the way it was. It was Gibby. "Sir, Laura Stone is on her way to see you; I tried to stop her." "Got it!" Liam grunted and slammed the phone back on the hook. He had enough shit on his plate; he didn't need Laura's crap as well. It seemed he'd have to take it. His ex knocked once and pranced in, bringing in with her the cloyingly sweet but expensive smell of her perfume. "Liam—" She cooed as she ran into his arms but paused when he kept them at his sides and glared at her. "I have a meeting in fifteen minutes," he said, making a point of checking his Cartier. Laura was easily one of the most beautiful women he'd ever fucked. She had the body and the legs to make a man forget all his problems too. But his attention was on the

The sun was still high up in the sky when Eden left the office and walked to her car in the staff parking lot. She unlocked her doors but couldn't bring herself to jump in behind the wheel because she was still racking her brain for an excuse, a reason, a plausible lie for the mark on her cheek. Brenda would fret as soon as she saw it, and Eden was not ready for the coddling, however, well-intentioned. She didn't want all the inevitable questions and a few minutes in the sun was what she needed, she decided, as she turned up her face to the sky and soaked in the warm rays. It was a perfect Indian summer afternoon, and for a minute, everything was as it should be as she released the long breath she had been holding in the whole day, leaving her lungs empty. She felt as light as a feather while she imagined herself drifting away, like a balloon floating in the sky. But then her phone rang, shattering her moment of bliss. Sienna wanted to
