CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE
Claire's body was resting on Ryan's, both lying intimately on the couch. A huge flat screen was rambling on something none of the two paid attention at. Outside it was slightly raining, the water sliding smoothly on the glass of the great window.It felt peaceful; Claire couldn't deny this feeling of such rarity in her heart."Why did you rip off my blouse? Now I don't have anything to wear," Claire lamented.Ryan was smoothly toying with her hair, tangling and detangling the strands. "I was in a hurry to undress you, I guess," he answered flatly, grinning at her.Claire sighed. "You're so crazy, Ryan.” The back of her hand grazed his cleanly shaved face that made him look younger than his thirty-two years of age."You've said that over a million times already." Ryan's hands slid down to her waist, playfully reaching for the hem of his shirt.It was the only thing Claire was wearing right now."Ryan!" She giggled as he squeezed her butt with both hands, knowing fully well that she had

"I think I've got some explaining to do with Nathan," Claire muttered. "All thanks to your amazing indiscretion, Sir!" She changed the course of their conversation, and Ryan didn't seem to appreciate the turn."Don't call me Sir," he repeated his plea. "And why do you have to explain anything to Panther?" He frowned at the idea."Because he's my superior, and thanks to you he can now complete the puzzle on what's going on," Claire uttered and again their bickering started.And neither of the two was ready to back out."I don't owe an explanation to anyone, Claire!" Ryan snapped blatantly. "And, what is this with Panther? Are you close to him now?""Yeah, I'm close to him.” Claire snorted. "We are colleagues, we work together, and he's my boss." She slid the plate aside, annoyed.Ryan frowned. "Finish your food," he demanded."Excuse me?" Claire prompted quickly."I said finish your food," he repeated, sternly. "I want to see that plate clean, Claire, and I'm not bluffing.""Fuck! Why

CHAPTER THIRTY-THREE
Ryan took a seat behind his office desk and skimmed through some documents."This is good enough," he said pointedly, regarding the contract Harry had been working on. "And what's the emergency?" He turned towards Doris, who had been watching him taciturn.She sighed audibly and said, "I'm afraid Clancy has got you this time." She sat straight."What?" Ryan frowned."Where did you go, and without telling anyone?" Doris snapped angrily. "I've tried to reach you, but it seems you were too busy to answer!" She frantically rolled her eyes."Tell me about Clancy, what happened?" Ignoring the lady, Ryan turned to Harry for information.This was way more important for him."Well," Harry started, but when Doris got up stoutly like an angry wife, he had to stop his speech."Sit down, Doris!" Ryan demanded."I don't think you need me here, so why should I stay?" she replied harshly while reaching for the door handle."I said sit down, Director Marcos!" Ryan snapped aloud, his voice supreme. "I'

"Gosh, what a bastard that Clancy is," Claire snapped, and he laughed at her mad tone of voice. "So, you already have another project in mind for Montesby?" she asked."Yeah, by next year Montesby will be a part of the Government's Redevelopment Plan. Starting with the construction of a subway." Again he got engrossed into details, and Claire loved listening to his plans and visions of grandeur."Wow. And how the hell will you finance and manage another one?" she queried."In this industry, Claire, you can't let your guards down. It's one late move and you're out. So timing is also a merit, plus, I'm not the one financing the project.""Oh yeah? And who does?""Rule number one, never use your own money in Real Estate business," said Ryan, and Claire smiled with a raised eyebrow."What's rule number two?" she asked."Use only other people's money," he replied."That's the same thing." She laughed, her eyes staring down at him."That's the whole point." Ryan laughed as well. "If you sno

Ryan sighed heavily. "Is this about the call? Jeez, Claire. We were talking about office matters, so why are you behaving like this?" His voice was no longer teasing."I don't care," Claire said. "I'm not even sure what I'm doing here in the first place."Ryan strode toward her. "You're here because we both want to be here. I don't want you gone, and I feel like I'll go nuts if you try to do it?" He hauled her body closer.Sharply Claire inhaled some oxygen upon his embrace, her back against his hard chest She stilled in his arms, feeling the warmth. "Is this how you deal with Doris and all other women you fuck around?" she asked."I don't fuck around with just anyone," Ryan whispered, and then kissed her neck.She tilted her head in response. "Believe me," he added.Liar!"Oh, so I should be grateful, right? That the mighty Ryan Stevens has his dick on me?" Claire"Aren't you?" Ryan smiled, nuzzling her hair. "Just admit it, Claire, you don't want to go anywhere but here?" He gripped

"Sleep here tonight," Ryan croaked."Huh?" Abandoning the warmth of his bare chest, Claire glanced up at him. "Sleep here?" Her eyes awoke."Yeah." Ryan kissed her hair. "It's getting late and it's raining." Oh? But he could still drive her home, couldn't he? Claire blushed."Is that the only reason you want me to sleep here?" she asked, resuming her comfort in his arms, hugged possessively.How she loved feeling his body so near hers, and his naughty hands toying with her hair smoothly, if not her skin every now and then."Maybe I don't want you away tonight." Ryan smiled, lying more comfortable in his king-size bed, his wide back against the pillows. "You can go to work from here."How convincing! Claire was amused. Well, it was a tempting offer. It was undeniable that she felt different being here in his apartment, his bed, and in his arms. It felt serendipitous."I don't have clothes for tomorrow," she said softly. Her index finger was childishly trailing the contours of his sculpt

"You taste great, baby," Ryan muttered as he pulled back, still holding her trembling legs. "You can't come yet. I love doing it with you." He sprang his hard erection out of the briefs he was wearing."Please . . . Ryan." Claire couldn't hold it. She wanted him, she craved the release. She was breathing erratically. "Fuck me," she snapped, beseeching at him. "Please. Now. Deep."Obeying her wish, Ryan kissed her swiftly on the lips, and quickly eased his length inside her. She screamed as he filled her, and her legs curled around him, her mouth searching for his."Oh, baby, you feel so good," Ryan muttered, pouncing gently as he fixed himself. She hugged him, and began kissing again, ferociously. "Oh!" he grunted and began pushing faster, harder and deeper.Claire moaned loudly, his pace driving her nuts. It didn't take millennium to shatter in his arms, letting the tornado of pleasure take her away. She hugged him tight, and he held her firmly, both relishing the climax of their int

CHAPTER THIRTY-EIGHT
Joining the designing team was the best thing that could happen to Claire, as far as her career was concerned. Her team members welcomed her fairly enough, too. She had been working with them for three days now, and things were proceeding well to say the least.It was Friday when Jorge suddenly called her during lunch hours, and invited her out. She was skeptical at first, but when she thought about the favor he had done her by getting Gena a job, Claire realized she should at least be kind and accept his friendly gesture."Thanks for coming on such short notice. I was around the area and I thought we could have lunch together," Jorge said gently once they both settled inside the restaurant."It's okay," Claire replied with a small smile. "Actually, I should've invited you first. I wanted to thank you for hiring Gena; it means a lot to me.""It was no big deal," Jorge remarked while grabbing the menu. "She has great credentials, and there was an open position, so I thought why not?" H

Outside Claire exhaled heavily as though she'd been holding her breath forever. Her heart was racing in her chest, guilt-charged. How could she talk to Doris like that? She walked pensively towards Jorge's car, pondering. Really she had turned into a bitch.But was she going to give up on Ryan? No, she was supposed to have forgotten him by now! Chaos invaded her heart and brain, waging war. Doris's tone of voice was full of sarcasm earlier. She was being nasty without being vulgar. Could it be that she knew about Ryan and her?"Is everything okay?" Jorge asked, derailing her training of thoughts."Huh?" she gasped.Jorge narrowed his eyes. "I'm asking if you're okay, because you look like you've seen a ghost," he repeated, laughing indulgently.God! Now she was being obvious, wasn't she?"Oh, yeah, I am okay." Her smile was elusive. "Are you going home early today? Because I am.""Yeah, I'm done for the day," Jorge answered."Okay, let's go." They both hopped in and the ride commenced

CHAPTER FORTY
Sunday turned too boring for Claire. Decidedly, she and Gena met in the afternoon for a little shopping to clear her head—the distraction she needed to forget him."How was your date with Harry last night? He took you to his place, didn't he?" asked Claire while going through some handbags beautifully displayed in her regular boutique."Ugh, don't even remind me," Gena replied with rolled eyes. She was having the best champagne glass provided by the boutique as a token. "It was horrible," she added, sitting cross-legged after a long sip.Claire scowled, staring at Gena over her shoulder. "Horrible? Why?" She returned the first handbag and grabbed another one."You wouldn't guess, my friend. That guy took me to his parent's house, can you imagine? Not his place! His parent's!""Oh wow!" Claire was baffled, her mouth hanging open."You have no idea how rattled I felt when I stood before his perfect family," Gena said. "His mom was something else, Claire. She ate me alive with just a sin
