MasukLexi“So, how did you come to work for Mr Whitewood?”Hassan asked. We were now at the bar, watching the two billionaires catch up. I glanced at him, my nose wrinkled. The last thing I wanted to talk about was my boss.“Well, it wasn't because of my enthusiasm, I'll tell you that.” I joked, hoping to change the subject.Hassan chuckled. “What do you mean?”I sighed.“It's a long story.” I waved off.“For you, I have time.”Oh, he was interested. Good. I didn't have to do much then.“Charming.”He smiled, and then tilted his head as if telling me to go on.“Well, it's not a big deal. There was a job opening and I went for the job. He wasn't what I was expecting.” I shrugged.“Elaborate.”I snickered. “You're not going to let this go, are you?”“I have a natural inclination to…getting information.”“Alright. He was young, and I had met him before. We had a bit of… disagreement before and working for him didn't fit into my values. I would have left but the pay was something I couldn't e
LexiThe moment I laid my eyes on Hassan, I knew he would be the perfect distraction I needed to get over my attraction for Mr Whitewood He was tall, broad shouldered and just the right build. He looked like the kind of man that knew the effect he had on women, and enjoyed it. Exactly my type if I had a thing for rich spoiled brats who never had to work for anything a day in their life. It didn't matter, especially since if I was going to go through with it, it would be a one night stand thing. Meaningless and a means to an end.The last thing I needed was to be saddled with another Mr Whitewood. But I had never really been known for my ability to let things go.I sighed This was ridiculous. Was I really going to sleep with a random guy just to get over a man I wasn't even dating?What was wrong with me?Why was I so attracted to him? All he'd done since we met was make me go out of character. Then again, there was nothing wrong with liking Hassan. He was hot, the type of hot tha
RichardI shook my head in amusement watching Lexi do everything in her power to keep a safe distance between us.Normally, this would irritate me, but for some reason I found it entertaining, endearing almost.Her refusal to admit the obvious attraction between us was not only interesting to watch, it made me want to push even harder. See how long she could deny thsiWhat could possibly be so wrong with me that she was willing to suppress something so painfully obvious.I had never had this problem before. Most women made it a point to throw themselves at me. But Lexi…Lexi looked like if I died today, she would just sigh in relief and go on with her life without ever thinking about me again.The Idea should have been depressing.instead it made my heart beat with an aliveness I had not felt in a while.The elevator doors slid open, and she stepped inside, immediately moving to the farthest corner as if standing too close to me was forbidden, and would curse her for life.I would have
LexiI was out of his room faster than he could pick up his phone, my heart drumming against my chest and for some reason, I felt no shame. And that alone made me even more confused than beforeI closed my door behind me as soon as I entered, breathing harder than a Marathon sprinter who’d just run five hundred miles.That was close! Way to close! Yet, I had been ready for him to take me all the way.What the fuck was wrong with me?Why was I letting this fool play me like this?What was so special about him?Sure, he was tall, with a perfect face, hot, with the perfect build, and the most sinful and sensual lips I had ever seen on a man, but he was still a rich asshole and was the reason I was stuck working as his assistant.This was supposed to be strictly professional. I had prepared myself on how to block his advances, and I had barely lasted a day.I made my way to the bathroom, stared at my reflection on the bathroom mirror above the vanity, and wrinkled my nose.My lips were sw
Lexi Time seemed to be moving more slowly than usual as I arranged Richard’s…Mr. Whitewood's’ clothes. It was better to address him by his last name for obvious reasons. It created distance and brought me back to my senses, which was what I needed right now. He was currently sitting on his bed, his leg stretched out on the bed, typing away on his laptop with intense concentration. A huge relief if you asked me. He was concentrating on anything other than me, which put me at ease a little I just wish he could put on a damn shirt! That would be way more helpful. Who the fuck even worked half-naked? His inappropriate behavior was unacceptable. Yet he didn’t seem to care. I sighed as I moved on to arrange his shirts in a hanger and hung them in the mini walk-in closet. When I was done, I arranged his shoes. The most annoying part of all this was the fact that I would have to rearrange them into his luggage again once we were ready to leave this hellhole. “Everything okay, Miss Ca
Lexi “Thank you, Mark.” I smiled at the porter. “You are welcome, ma’am.” He said, his blue eyes sparkling. In the fifteen minutes we had become acquainted, I had honestly enjoyed his company. He was relatable, and was from a humble background like I was. “And let me know if you need anything else.” He said before exiting. I sighed, and closed the door behind him, staying put at the door until it no longer made any sense to do so. Reluctantly, I turned to face Richard. He was looking at me with an expression I couldn’t name. I didn’t wait to find out, the earlier I put some much needed space between us, the better. I walked past him, about to go freshen up, but just as I passed him, he shot out his hand, grabbing my shoulders, and stopping me right in my tracks. I blinked, shocked by the suddenness of his movement. Richard's unprofessionalism never ceased to amaze me. “What are you doing?” my eyes flashed. He simply smiled, and said. “We need to talk.” “About what?” I
LexiI froze at his question. I was hoping to God he wouldn't bring up my momentary lapse in judgment, but I should have known I was asking for too much.*Well?” He tilted his head to the side, his gaze fixed on mine as if if he blinked, he'd miss something.“I have no idea what you are talking ab
Lexi My heart pounded against my chest like the drums of a rock band as I ran out the elevator.I kissed him…I fucking kissed him! The man I was supposed to hate.“Oh, Lexi you dumbass!” I yelled at myself, facepalming myself as I moved through the empty and quiet lobby.My voice echoed back to
Chapter 37Richard.It happened so fast, one minute she was walking away from me, the next she was grabbing my face and crashing her luscious lips against mine like a starved woman.I didn't waste any time— didn't even think, I pulled her flushed against my body, savoring the heat of her sensual bo
Lexi“Don't you feel so much better?” Richard asked as soon as I drank the last drop of Sweet red wine he had practically forced in my hand.I did feel so much better and even a bit more relaxation but I wasn't about to tell him that. His was already big. There was no need to make it bigger.So wha
