(Chelsea’s POV)The hotel was five stars and surprisingly, everyone at the front desk bowed their heads the moment they saw him. I suddenly wondered who he was. He didn’t need to check in. He just led me upstairs, his hand firm on the small of my back, and I followed without asking questions.My heart pounded loud in my chest because I knew this was my fault. I was the reason he had brought me here.The suite was larger than my apartment, with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the city. I barely had time to take it in before he was in front of me, his hand cupping my cheek, his thumb brushing across my lips.A shiver ran down my spine. I realized what I felt was fear. I had never had sex before. I had no idea what it would feel like.“Before I proceed, I need you to answer one single question for me.” He murmured, a soft look in his eyes as if he noticed the slight hint of hesitation. "What did he do?""Who?" I blinked."Your boyfriend."Color drained from my face. How did he know?

(Leonard's POV)Chelsea Laurent.I had looked over her résumé that morning the same way I looked over a dozen others. Scanning through with efficient judgment and absolutely no emotions attached. I had no idea the woman walking through my door would be her, the stranger from the bar, the one who vanished before dawn. The one who looked just about the same age as my own son, Adrian.When she stepped into my office, something inside of me came alive. Her chestnut-brown hair was pulled back, her blouse modest, but it didn't matter. My memory stripped away the fabric until all I could see was soft, bare skin, the replay of her voice, the way she had trembled when I brushed her shoulder.I had no idea why I gave her the job. My relationship with her should have just been a one night stand and nothing more. I shouldn't have cared less that she disappeared before she had a real taste of me. After all, I had gotten someone else to replace her at once.Yet, seeing her face again reminded me at

(Leonard's POV)The moment Adrian and his girlfriend left my office, I fell in my chair and drummed my fingers on my desk.Funny of him to have thought he could bring a random girl to my office and request for a specific job position just because she was his so called girlfriend. Adrian knew I was strict when it came to business.And girlfriend? Girlfriends changed. He should have brought his fiancée and perhaps I would've listened to him.I cocked my head to the side and thought about the thing that gnawed at my mind the most.Chelsea.The way Adrian had called her name. The way he had looked at her. I didn't want to believe she was just a friend to him.Besides, when he realized Chelsea was my personal assistant, his expression changed and his girlfriend seemed pissed likewise.I picked up my phone and dialed a number."Hello, Greg.""Leonard!!! My man!!!"I winced at the sound of the man which yelled at the other end. He was my good friend and business partner, although I treated h

(Chelsea's POV)While I stood preparing Leonard's cup of coffee, my head was about to explode with several thoughts running through it."It's just a cup of coffee he wants, right?""No way on earth is he going to try to touch me again, or grope me or throw me on top of his desk and want to—""Why on earth am I thinking he would want to throw me on top of his desk and do anything?! It's work. It's his office. No way he would try such a thing, right?"By the time I was done preparing his cup of coffee, my ears were beet red. I held the handle of the cup tight and carefully, so not to be absentminded enough to let it slip from my fingers and turned but nearly bumped into someone."Hi!" A beautiful red head was standing in front of me and another girl with shoulder length, wavy brown hair stood next to her, each smiling at me.The red head extended her hands and I took it. "I'm Sarah and this is..." She gestured to her friend."Charlotte." The other girl completed for her and I shook her

(Chelsea's POV)By three sharp, we would be leaving. Those were the words Leonard said to me before I left his office. I tried concentrating on one file on my computer, one file! And I couldn't. Because my eyes kept going to my wrist. The place he had held so tight and which now left a red mark on my arm.What a jerk!I couldn't believe I had welcomed the idea of him spanking me for a second. He wouldn't dare! I wasn't his daughter! And neither was I his... his..."Hello, Chelsea."I jumped, my heart flipping in my chest and turned my head sharply to the right to see Victor standing there, smiling at me. His smile dropped when he realized he'd scared me."Are you good? I'm— I'm so sorry—""No, no, it's fine." I chuckled, my hands to my chest as I felt embarrassed for not noticing him when he'd come to stand next to me. "I was just—""Distracted?" His smile returned, turning into a wide grin. "Yeah, I figured. Although you looked so angry. Is the big man stressing you out that much?""
