As soon as he walked out of the doors, a small group of people followed closely behind him. “Mr Grayson!” “Please excuse me, Mr. Grayson...” “Sir, can we get your opinion on our new company policies for the financial year?” He turned in the direction of the voice. “Shannon, you know you can just file those to my office, right?” She smiled sheepishly and tucked her hair behind her ear.“Mr. Grayson, you have to make a social appearance, it has been a long time coming, and the people are thirsty...” someone asked in a high-pitched voice. Cameron stared at the lady who had asked the question. She had a stick sweet in her mouth, she made popping sounds occasionally. He would have been so uncomfortable if they were alone and she was looking at him just like she was now. “I have a P.A, that handles matters like this...” He peeked behind him, “Where is Lucious when I need him?” “Lucious is kind of hard to reach...” she drawled out. He sighed, “Get it to him, please.” He continued walk
Lucious held an umbrella over Cameron’s head, as he struggled to keep up with his long strides, “Remind me, why are we doing this again, Mr. Grayson.”Cameron was flanked on each side by hefty bodyguards, dressed in black suit and dark shades. “It is a kind gesture for an employee...”He gritted his teeth as he looked up at the large boutique. It was fancy, quite alright but Cameron never did his shopping, let alone shop for a lady, “Couldn’t we have had someone else do the tedious work for us, Mr. Grayson. I mean...” He held the door open for him, “I can surely think up a thousand other ways you should be spending your time.”Cameron squeezed his shoulders. “I do enjoy spontaneous acts like this.” He replied before walking in.Lucious touched the shoulder where Cameron’s hands had been, he bit down on his lower lips and sucked in a breath before rushing to meet up with him.As soon as they walked in, a couple of shop attendants rushed towards them, with a wide grin that almost reache
Scarlett exhaled and smoothed her dress before knocking on the door. She took a moment to steady her breathing before walking in. He looked up at her as soon as she did. “You were standing outside for a while.” She frowned. He turned his laptop screen around, showing a still image of her outside his office, capturing her table and chair too. Her frown deepened. She couldn’t tell for certain if it was okay to have cameras in her office, but nothing was okay or normal about what Cameron was doing. She was mandated to stop by his office every morning when she came in. “Good morning, Mr. Grayson,” she greeted before turning around to leave. “Scarlett...” She spun around. "We have an external meeting to attend together in 45 minutes from now. I need you to change into that dress,” he pointed at a dress that was hung in the corner. She hadn’t seen it until he pointed at it. “And join us at the parking lot.” Her mouth ga
Those words hung in the air, even after he left the room.The way he said them, the piercing stare of his beautiful grey eyes, his deep baritone voice that had sent tingles down to her toes. Those words held a deeper meaning, a promise. There was nothing casual about the words he said...She exhaled and slumped on the chair across from his, resting her head on the table. The mental gymnastics going on in her head was exhausting. Her brain was working overtime, trying to make sense of the man that was Cameron Grayson. What was he thinking per time? What was the end goal? Why did he keep tethering at the edge, what was he getting out of all of this? She groaned and stretched on the table. The questions were endless. How long would he continue? Would they ever have a normal working relationship, or would he never stop with his subtle jabs and...Her head shot up suddenly, she looked towards the corner of the wall, and just like she guessed, there was a camera
Cameron froze as he spotted her. When he had picked out the dress the night before, he had spent the night imagining her in it and replaying it all over again. However, nothing prepared him for this, seeing her in person. He smiled as he noticed her wobbly steps as she approached him. When she was finally in front of him, he took the moment to take in her whole appearance. She had styled and curled her blonde hair, which perfectly framed her face, the light makeup she applied accentuated her beautiful face. Her big blue ocean eyes looked everywhere else but at him. The dress fit better than he could have ever imagined. His eyes flitted down to her exposed cleavage. He tried not to linger, even reminded himself they were outside and it was improper, yet he couldn't help it. His eyes trailed down her full legs; they looked longer because of the short dress and the high heels. An image of those legs wrapped around his waist as he pumped into her popped into his head
Cameron walked in, accompanied on one side by Lucious who was whispering in his ear as they walked together. On the other side was a lady escort from the company, and Benjamin was carrying the briefcase and Lucious’s bag. He could hear her unsure steps behind him. He couldn’t help but smile; he was enjoying this too much, teasing her like this. It excited him so much, his desire for her... He shut his eyes and sucked in a breath, not now. Not when he had a big meeting ahead...As they reached the doors, one of the bodyguards rushed forward and opened the large doors. The conference room of Sterling Company was bathed in soft light, with a panoramic view of the city skyline visible through floor-to-ceiling windows. As soon as they walked in, the people seated around the large mahogany table stood to their feet to welcome them.Mr. Johnson, the CEO of Sterling Company, extended a hand to him, “Mr. Grayson, it is a pleasure.” Cameron shook his hand
His breath caught in his throat. Now he wasn’t exactly sure if it was her scent that muddled his senses or the fact that she was leaning so close to him and he could see down her dress, the creamy skin of her breasts, or the soft whisper of her voice. He imagined her calling out his name softly as he made...'Fuck it! Cameron Nolan Grayson!' He cursed in his head, 'You’re not a horny teenager. You’re a man who has had a lot of sex, as a matter of fact, you have had sex with this woman before...'“My apologies...” He massaged his temples, his hand gripped onto the table, “I am a bit unwell...” Lucious shot up from his seat immediately, “How can I help, sir?” He shook his head, “It is nothing serious, Lucious...” "You spaced out for a while there; we could discontinue and recover later...” Lucious added as he looked to Mr. Johnson for approval. “Yes, we can do that. Mr. Grayson, we should go for a short break...” "No!”
Scarlett leaned forward and kissed Levi on the cheek. Clarissa watched them with admiration in her eyes. “He finally slept, huh?” She turned around and smiled at her. “I cherish these little moments I get with him.” Clarissa’s smile widened. “As you should.” She stood to her feet and walked towards the door. “You should get some rest, Scarr... You have had a long day...” “I can’t sleep, Ma,” she whispered. Clarissa frowned. “Are you okay?” She let out a huge sigh, stole a glance at Levi, then pulled her mother out of the door. She led her to the living room and plopped down on it. “Okay, I want to tell you something, Ma, but promise me you won’t freak out.” Clarissa’s eyes widened, her gaze fixed on Scarlett. “What did you do, Scarlett?”“Ma...” “Okay! Okay! Don’t blame me. You have that terrified look in your eyes and you’re looking over your shoulders, and I can’t help but worry,” Clarissa gushed.Scarlett stood to her feet. “Okay, give me a moment, Ma...” Clarissa shook her
