“Yes, we run in some of the same circles. Her family uses my law firm to handle matters. But we have been friends for years. So, when she told me Mr. Merrick himself would be here with his girlfriend. I had to come to give my regards.” Cordell looks me up and down.

“Ah, this is Cordell.” I lean into Selene speaking loudly as Cordell frowns from our closeness. I can smell her sweet scent of roses.

“Yes, this is my ex-boyfriend.” She tells me as I watch Sia smirk. I know she had something to do with this. There is no doubt she planned this. I exhale, pulling Selene closer to my side. Cordell and Sia both watch the way my fingers grip her hips.

“Well, I can’t really say I am surprised. I mean, you constantly talked about how much you hated the guy. I should have known it was code for I can’t wait to fuck him.” Cordell snarls looking at me. But I’m also secretly enjoying knowing that I was her nightly conversation topic.

“Well, it is nice to hear you had spo

  • The Night My Boss Owned Me   78. Then there was a call

    RowanWatching the camera footage, I saw that they had moved her to another vehicle. I did get the face of the guy who grabbed her. It was Cordell. Her ex-boyfriend and some other guy who kept his face away from the camera. I have given my connections at the police station all the info we found. I pray that they find her with these guys before I do. If I get there first, there will be dead bodies on the floor. Not mine and not Selene’s. “Did you find anything out?” Allister walks into my office. One of my tech guys is going over all the cameras looking for the second vehicle. Trying to locate where they are holding her. The crazy part is they haven’t called with any ransom demands. So, I am sure Cordell thinks he is getting her back. This can’t be all for him to reclaim my woman, can it? “We have eyes out looking for the white van they changed over to.” I tell him as his twin Camden walks in on his phone. “We have Lee trying to find her phone. It is currently off but th

  • The Night My Boss Owned Me   77. A man with a grudge

    SeleneI scan around the room trying to figure out where I am. How long have I been unconscious? I’m not sure. But Cordell seems well rested. Or maybe he seems more high-strung. I feel like I don’t even know him anymore to figure out which version of him this is. “Cordell. What do you mean you and I are going to be together?” I ask him as I try and wiggle my fingers. Trying to keep them from falling back asleep. “Well, we deserve another chance. You and I had something really wonderful. I know I didn’t show you all the very best of me but I know you better than anyone. The Selene I knew would never run off and get married. There has to be some reason for it? Did he force you into this?” Cordell asks me as he begins pacing. “Hey, no one made me do anything like that. It just happened Cordell. That’s all. We were together for a bunch of time and you never wanted to get married. You broke up with me remember?” “I know!” He yells at and I am startled. I have never hear

  • The Night My Boss Owned Me   76. A high speed chase

    RowanI run at full speed down the street. I keep the van in my eyesight. As I turn the corner to keep up on foot pushing myself. The burning in my chest makes me feel like I am on fire. Then my driver William pulls up slamming on the breaks. I hop inside and he floors it. I also see a security detail chasing them as well. “Faster. We are losing them!” I yell in frustration as the van is getting farther away. I call Theron on speaker as we weave through traffic. “Black van license plate is dark but I can make out the last three digits are two three five. I need you to find this car. Tap into whoever you know. They have Selene.” There is a literal ache in my chest saying this out loud because it means its true. Its not just a bad dream. The two guys I had on her were knocked out and the other was shot. They are both with Samira and Ivy going over everything with the police. This is while they are on the way to the hospital. I am totally fucking stumped about who could b

  • The Night My Boss Owned Me   75. Waking up to madness

    SeleneI wake up in a windowless room. I am tied to a chair with tape over my mouth. I feel drugged as my head has been drooping forward. I can hear classical music playing as well as a water feature. Maybe some sort of rock wall display. I am trying to lift my head up but I feel so heavy. My neck hurts from where I was stabbed with a needle. What do I remember. Try and focus Selene. I am in the room alone but I don’t know for how long. Think! What happened and how did I get here? I try and move my arms as they feel heavy from hanging behind my back tied to the chair. I feel its zip ties that are really snug. I also feel them on my ankles and my shoes are gone. I’m still in my gown since that is all I can see. The last thing I remember was being at the gala. The one Rowan and I worked on for weeks while also working so damn well together. Okay, keep thinking on it. I remember that I was at the gala. I spoke with Samira and Ivy before the event started. Then I recall meeting

  • The Night My Boss Owned Me   74. Something is different

    RowanTalking to Mr. Feathering I am so drawn to the conversation going on next to me. I want to rescue her from these vultures but I need to let her fight her own battles. “Yes Mr. Feathering, we can work on a new ad for the summer items. Not a problem.” I pull out my phone and message my personal assistant. Letting her know to make an appointment. “Done. I will have my assistant Zoe get it touch with you Monday.” “Very well Rowan, I look forward to it. So, I heard you got married. Is this the beautiful woman right here? What a great pick.” He smiles leeringly at Selene and I want to punch him in the face for even looking at her like this. “Yes, she is the best thing to happen to me. I am so very lucky she agreed to marry me.” I tell him pulling her close. “We must make our rounds. Please make sure you have a good time.” I continue through the crowd. Speaking with others that we pass. Stopping to make sure that we did have conversations with them all. “So, I have
