The knocks became more insistent, and he got up without caring about the towel that no longer covered his hips. Completely ignoring it, he headed to the door.“Mr. Morgan, the towel!” I called out, holding it up.He opened the door without hesitation. Greg was standing there with a gym bag, handing it to the CEO. They whispered something to each other until the security guard glanced in my direction and nodded, walking away.“I'm so embarrassed; what will he think of me?” I said, slumping to the edge of the sofa, sitting with my arms still raised, holding the towel.“Who? Greg?” Patrik asked casually. “He's probably thinking he's lucky to have such a charming trainer as a teacher.”“I'm serious, Mr. Morgan,” I glared at him. “Could you cover that up?”I glanced at his erect member.“Are you afraid you won't be able to control yourself, Mrs. Lis?” Patrik teased, stopping in front of me.I covered my eyes with my hands, and he crouched down in front of me, removing them. With a daring s

“He can't be serious...This is an extremely important meeting; I can't lead!” I said it nervously.“Ms. Lis, Mr. Patrik anticipated this reaction of yours and asked me to tell you that there is a reason why you are considered his right hand and that he fully trusts your management skills!” Julia said, smiling shyly and holding my hands. “You know this company like the back of your hand; you will do a good presentation.”I smiled at the compliment, feeling strange about Mr. Morgan's behavior, but he had been acting strange with me since he found out about the book.I shivered at the memory of that incident, noticing Julia's narrowed eyes. Furthermore, I sighed, adjusting my posture.“Ms. Julia, please bring tea, coffee, and snacks. Research and find out the preferences of the people in this room,” I said firmly, watching her nod before quickly leaving to fulfill my request. I turned to the impatient looks in the room, positioning myself in front of the screen to start the presentation.

“I piqued your curiosity, didn't I?” He smiled broadly, approaching and placing his hands on the sides of the armchair, trapping me. I lifted my chin, maintaining our gaze. “The brothers never got along; I blame the upbringing... Elijah was diagnosed with schizophrenia, just like his mother. To make matters worse, a mass is growing in his brain. Despite the grim situation, he remains lucid in his decision-making at Forbs News Times. However, Celdric doesn't want to wait for his brother to go mad and has been fighting for power!”“But Mr. Morgan, wouldn't it be more coherent to let someone lucid lead the publishing house?” I swallowed hard as Patrik brought his lips close to mine.“Indeed it would. However, Celdric seems like a lucid man, but his ambition will ruin the industry in less than a year. That's why Mr. Forbs has been fighting against his brother and battling the disease!” Brushing his lips against mine, Patrik teased; his skin was very warm.“Do you feel okay?” I whispered,

“I'm going to demand additional compensation from the company for this!" I crossed my arms, expressing my impatience. “And Mr. Morgan... "I nervously bit my lips harder, encouraging him to focus his attention on my mouth. As he approached, Patrik undid the bite with his fingers, gently caressing my lower lips.“Miss?" He whispered, being closer than I would prefer.“I won't give in to advances; I won't sleep with you!" I finally declared, watching a playful gleam cross his enigmatic eyes.“No problem, Ms. Elisabeth." Patrik smiled seductively.I sighed as he stood up, quickly finishing his wine. I felt like I had set boundaries when Patrik turned to me with enthusiasm.“What I have in mind for you will need you to be wide awake!" He teased, climbing the stairs to the second floor of the cottage.I shivered, trying to understand the meaning behind his words. How would our absence affect the company? What was his plan?Surveying the surroundings, I spotted my company's belongings on an

His challenging gaze exerted an irresistible dominion over me. A moan escaped my lips as his own lips took me once more, more voraciously this time, pulling me to sit without breaking the intensity of the moment. With enviable skill, he removed my robe, leaving only the blue nightgown adorning my body. Patrik leaned back slightly, running his eyes over me with a daring smile.“You look incredibly stunning,” Patrik declared, a proud gleam shining in his eyes. He threatened to resume the kisses, hovering inches from my lips. I closed my eyes in anticipation, but the kiss did not materialize. As I opened my eyes, I was met with his smile, and he backed away.“Write!” he ordered, presumptuously, getting up to hand me a notebook, leaving me confused. “I...” I glanced at my posture angrily for falling into his provocations, quickly straightening up on the couch and grabbing the robe, which he snatched from my hands and threw into the fireplace. “Are you out of your mind?”“I said write!” Hi
