Elion’s POV

The first thing I noticed was that someone was standing in front of my apartment.

The second thing I noticed was that someone was Isabella Kingston.

Leaning against my door.

For a moment I just stood in the hallway staring at her, wondering if I had finally worked myself into some kind of sleep-deprived hallucination.

She glanced up from her phone, completely relaxed, like she hadn’t just appeared outside her assistant’s apartment at nine in the evening.

Then she smiled.

  • Seducing My Assistant   Chapter Ten

    Isabella’s POVI screamed and it echoed in the room until my head hurt even more. Elion jerked awake like he had been pulled out of deep water and he looked around fast and confused.“What is going on?” he said, his voice rough as he pushed himself up.I stared at him and pointed at the bed and then at him and then at myself because nothing made sense and my thoughts were not lining up.“Why are you in my bed?” I asked.He blinked at me and frowned.“Your bed?” he repeated, then looked around and then back at me, “why am I in your bed?”“That is what I just asked you?”He dragged a hand through his hair and winced like the movement hurt.“Did you bring me here?” he asked.I stared at him like he had lost his mind. “Did I bring you here?” I repeated. “How exactly would I do that when you are clearly larger than me.”“That does not mean it is impossible.”“It does mean it is unlikely.”We both stopped and just looked at each other and the silence stretched and neither of us refused to

  • Seducing My Assistant   Chapter Nine

    Isabella’s POV“Well,” I said flatly, “this is a disaster.”Across the living room, Elion didn’t look particularly surprised.He was sitting on the couch, reading something on his tablet like this entire situation was mildly inconvenient and not catastrophic. What will the board members say if they found out I went on a mouse chase to Vegas.“You did say Vegas was a good idea,” he said.I glared at him.“That was before I realized the meeting wasn’t real.”He lifted one shoulder.“And now we’re here.”“Yes,” I said, standing. “Now we’re here.”Vegas.The City of chaos and bad decisions.I stared out the hotel window at the neon lights blazing across the strip.Then a thought slowly crept into my head.“What is Vegas good for?” I muttered.Elion looked up.“I’m afraid to answer that.”“Clubs,” I said thoughtfully.He blinked.“Casinos.”He lowered the tablet.“No.”“And parties.”“No,” he repeated more firmly.I turned toward him with a bright smile. “I would love to go out tonight.”Hi

  • Seducing My Assistant   Chapter Eight

    Isabella’s POVHe didn't come home last night.It doesn't take half a brain cell to know that he's avoiding me. Maybe I should give up on this idea.I was dwelling on that thought when Elion stepped into my office.“There’s an email you should see,” he said.He set the tablet on my desk and turned it toward me.I read the sender first.Then the subject line.Then the body of the email.And slowly, very slowly, I smiled.“Oh,” I said quietly. “That’s interesting.”Elion crossed his arms. “D&T’s team wants a meeting.”“I can see that.”“They’re insisting it happens in Las Vegas.”“I can also see that.”He studied my face carefully.“Are you planning something?”I leaned back in my chair, folding my hands together.“Planning what?”“You’re smiling.”“And?”“You only smile like that when something illegal, manipulative, or brilliant is about to happen.”“That’s very insulting.”“It’s also accurate.”I ignored that.D &T had been avoiding Kingston Group for nearly a year. Every attempt to

Great location.”My mind took a moment to process the situation.My boss had apparently moved into the apartment next to mine.I stared at her.She looked entirely too pleased with herself.“You do realize that this has only given me

    Isabella’s POV“Of course you’ll agree,” I said confidently, already reaching for my tablet. “I’ll have the contract drafted by—”I paused.The words caught up with my brain a second too late.“…what?”Elion had already turned toward the door.I frowned. “What did you just say?”He glanced back at me, calm as ever.“I said no.”For a moment the entire office felt unusually quiet.I stared at him.No?Did he just say no?To me?He walked toward the door like he hadn’t just detonated a bomb in the middle of my office.“We should start preparing for your two o’clock meeting with the investors from Toronto,” he added casually. “They’ll be here in forty minutes.”“Wait.”He stopped.Then turned back.“Did you not hear the proposal correctly?” I asked, folding my arms.His expression remained neutral.“I heard it.”“Then why would you refuse?” I asked. “This isn’t a romantic proposition. It’s a mutually beneficial arrangement.”Silence.“I’m helping you,” I continued, leaning against my des

  • Seducing My Assistant   Chapter Five

    Isabella’s POVElion adjusted faster than anyone I had ever hired and within three days he understood the rhythm of my schedule better than assistants who had worked under me for years.He did not hover and he did not ask for constant validation and he did not attempt to anticipate my moods to avoid them. He simply did his job with the highest efficiency.It's been four months of working with him and I would say we now work together like a well-oiled machine.He entered my office without knocking. I hated knocks, they broke my thought process. Something he was quick to pick up.“You have six meetings today that would waste your time,” he said as he placed a revised schedule on my desk.I looked down at it.“Why would you say that?” I asked, looking up waiting for his reply.I watched his long lashes flicker behind his round rimmed glasses. “Three are board members trying to weigh you out and two are business fishing for investments in non-profit organizations while one is Liam.”I g
