I woke up at 5:30 am and contemplated my day and what exactly it would look like with Blake as my CEO. I allowed myself the extra time this morning since I had given myself way too much time to sleep crashing after Blake left. Although I’d wanted to have sexual escapades all night I realized, in the end, it was a wise decision he had made to leave me to rest. I hadn’t had a very active sex life really in the last couple of years as I was sick of boyfriends saying I put work before them or I wasn’t emotionally involved. I had some issues to work through and maybe Blake wanting to wait wasn’t a bad idea until I was fulling in because since the loss of my parents I may not have let anyone in and then the incident with Blake made me feel a little less trust for anyone I’d been with because they might just disappear in the morning. I now know what happened but could I trust Blake? I had some questions I still needed to be answered but the more pressing thing at the moment was figuring out h
I told Blake quickly as we arrived much to his dismay I would prefer at least halfway acting as if it was a coincidence we were going into the office at the same time rather than all of the employees knowing for sure something was going on between him. I put this down as my final word and prayed in my mind he would do this for me. He seemed to be complying as he allowed me to walk ahead of him a few feet but we both got in the elevator at the same time. There were two other gentlemen and a lady I didn’t know and I made my way a little further back. Blake as if it was something he always did divide them and put himself behind them and beside me. He looked over at me, “Good Morning Miss Sloan.” I was a bit nervous and responded, “Good morning Mr. Sutton.” Crap! I could feel my face getting red and was now even more grateful that I was behind the others. The elevator closed and I felt so did my embarrassment a minute. He leaned into my ear a bit, “Please c
I spent the hour before I met with my team working through things with Monique and trying to keep myself focused on anything but Blake Sutton. It felt good for a moment to not be thinking about him because it seemed that all I had done in the last week was focus on this situation with Blake. Monique was an exceptional assistant and we worked through some plans of our own and how to break down some scheduling by putting out three advertising campaigns essentially simultaneously. I needed some help to keep working and I also e-mailed Blake much to my dismay requesting some form of budget for recruiting new employees and gave him a list of needed new employees from other advertising representatives, graphic arts designers, an assistant to the assistant that could be on the same level as the department and some other miscellaneous team members. I was hoping he understand how large of a level we need to make this truly succeed. It wasn’t even a moment later when I received
It was getting past 6:00 pm and almost everyone had left the office. Still, her light was on and I could see her working on her computer and deep in thought. I couldn’t deny I enjoyed watching her this way. It took me back to my college years and being in her study group. I’d watch her for what seemed like hours tapping her finger on her chin, watching as her blonde curls fell on her face and she wiped them away, still so focused on what she was working on at that moment, and then those moments when she was trying to figure something out and bite her lip. It made my manhood throb every time and now I was so close to maybe having the real opportunity I wanted long ago and still wanted now. Kate was still the whole package in my eyes, driven, kind paid attention to details, and didn’t back down. I’d be lying if half the enjoyment of her was knowing she’d put up a fight in so many ways and I was finding new enjoyment when I realized she had given in to me. It made me feel like the most po
I can't say I'd ever felt this way in my entire life. I had gone through a great deal after discovering I had a biological family that had not had a good life and then to meet my biological mother only to lose her seemed at the time to be the most difficult thing I may ever go through, however, this experience with Kate now seemed more difficult because my entire heart ached to talk to her or for another chance and instead I could only watch her, watch her at work as she seemed to be in a robot-driven mode. I'd try to work out in my mind how I could get her to forgive me but it just didn't seem possible. Tuesday was utter hell because I had to watch as her team with her doing the presentation awed everyone with their first three proposed advertising campaigns. She had looked amazing and even though I could see some redness in her eyes that burned into my soul, nobody had noticed that there was anything different. Even when I'd asked questions during the presentation it was like s
I kept looking at the time all day trying to prepare myself for this evening. I knew a lot of things were about to happen to me.One Blake was sure to corner me on the drive there and try to figure out where we were at with things. That was likely to be the hardest part because the truth was even I wasn’t sure. Part of me understood where Blake was coming from and why he did what he did. I mean if you had anything you wanted at your convenience you occasionally wouldn’t check on someone you’d let get away? The other part of me was furious for several different reasons such as why on earth did he wait so long to reach out and why did it have to involve buying the company I was working at? The other big reason was it felt like he stalked me and I wasn’t sure if I was comfortable about it. Second Blake again was going to want to know if I wanted to make this work or not. That part was probably the hardest thing for me to answer. I wanted to be furious forever and had considered an option
We started walking in and I could feel myself panicking. I grabbed Blake’s arm so he would stop. “Wait, I don’t know your parents’ names, and who else will be there besides your sisters and Curtis?” He put his hand on mine which did lend me some comfort and I appreciated it, “Kate it is okay, I do know this is a big step for you. My parents’ names are Robert and Sara and I promise you they will be nice. Probably because you are the first woman I have ever brought home. The only other person that will be there is my brother Jason.” “Oh, I didn’t realize Jason would be there. That’s nice.”“After everything happened my parent’s guilt consumed them a great deal and especially when my biological mom passed away they took Jason in as their own in a lot of ways. Even helped him get to college, etc.” “Wow that’s amazing, okay let’s go.” Then it hit me, and I grabbed his arm again this time making him laugh. “Kate, I swear this is going to be alright.” “You have never brought any other wo
Everyone visited while eating their dessert and I saw Curtis look at his phone and say something to Susan and walk away. I saw my chance and asked Blake where the restroom was. He gave me directions and I gave him a wink hoping he would get what I was up to but either way it was an opportunity to see what Curtis was up to. I walked into the hallway and heard his voice. He was talking on the phone and I tried to make out where he was at. I turned a corner into the dining room and saw him. “Relax, I have this all figured out. I just need Susan to agree to move up with the wedding and we will be all set. I’m telling you this is better than the extra money I’ve been getting and then we just have to wait until I can complete the deal after our wedding and boom, baby you and me are set.” I was trying to figure out who he was talking to and leaned in a bit more making sure I heard every word. “Nope they aren’t saying a word and as long as push this up they won’t get a chance. They
