All Chapters of My New Boss Is My Brother's Best Friend: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Ares POVI grind my teeth and run my fingers through my hair. I'm so agitated right now. No. That's not it! I'm fucking jealous! Of a damn phone call! She could've been talking to her mother for all I know!I'd practically pushed Miley out the door the moment we were finished and I stormed down the third floor knowing I'd find my girl there... I just didn't know what to expect. I was half worried she'd run right into James' arms and he would be all over her... Only I'd sent him a text earlier telling him I needed something looked at right then. There was no way I was giving him the opportunity to touch what belongs to me. (If he had ignored my text and I'd found him down here with my girl there would be hell to pay!)To say I was relieved she wasn't with James is the understatement of the universe. She didn't look like she was fixing her clothes and she didn't have a hair out of place. Nothing like what my overactive imagination had been hinting at... Which is good, because I really ne

"You can't leave me Sammy! Not now! I need you!" I declare. My stomach is roiling in fear. Why is she doing this to me now? Now that I've finally gotten her where I need her to be. Right next to me. Right where I can keep her safe... and in my arms.Any moment now I'm going to freak out and have an actual mental breakdown. Did I do something? Is that why she is leaving me? How am I supposed to change her mind? Could I kiss her again and get her forget this stupid idea of leaving me?"I'm sorry, but I need to go," she states before tearing away from my arms and rushing to the elevator, and I'm right on her heels. I don't understand why she is acting like this, but I'm not letting her leave until she explains herself to me."Why are you doing this to me?" I demand the moment the doors close behind me. I have her pinned up against the wall. I'm pressed so close to her I can feel the pounding of her heart, and the panting of her chest. This really isn't the time to get a boner, but..."You

Now I know better. I'll have to figure something else out. Ben's gonna be pissed, especially if Ares calls him and tells him I ditched on the first day! But they just don't know! I can't go back!Not after that text I got. If you don't leave Ares alone, your life will be a living hell. I will be watching you bitch.It wasn't that specific, and I have no idea who sent it, but if the rat was any indication, they were serious. I didn't know what else to do. Now that I left, I still don't know what I'm going to do. I still have the damn stack of bills that won't be magically erased any time soon.I didn't mean to accuse Ares of the rat. I know he wouldn't do something like that. I was just so damn pissed off! He wasn't letting me leave like I was told to do, and I hated the fact I was being chased away. Whoever the hell sent that text has no clue what stresses I've been going through, and the fact that Ares had offered me this job had been a blessing in disguise. They just wanted me to le

Sam's POVI can't stop thinking about Ares. His arms wrapped around me. Hips lips hungry for mine. His words claiming me as his. His scent engulfing me, making me so dizzy. His completely dominant presence anchoring me to him. His fire burning through my veins... All of him inside my mind, playing over and over again like some broken record. I don't know what to do with it all.And this time I'm not scared of him. I'm not angry with him. I don't want to slap that smug grin off his face. I don't want to hurt him like I had for so long. Maybe he actually did grow up. Maybe he's finally learned that hurting me isn't going to get him what when wants.I'm so damn confused. All my emotions are a mess right now. I'm on the verge of crying and pulling my hair out. I also want to curl up into a ball and just sleep. My heart is pounding in my chest, and it's painful. I'm sure something is going to break at any moment. I'm lonely, and I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. I feel li

“Sammy, you have no idea how long I’ve wanted you... How long I’ve been obsessing over your lips. Why the hell do you think I pushed you away from me all those years ago?" He'd murmured against my skin.Is that the truth? He pushed me away because he wanted me? Does that even make any sense?I'm so damn confused right now. I have no idea what to believe!I finally pull into the employee parking lot and shut off my car."What am I doing here?" I ask myself out loud. "Trying to take care of my future," I answer myself.I make doubly sure my car is locked. I don't want another dead animal in my car! Yesterday I almost had a panic attack. Thank God Ares got rid of the thing! I couldn't even look at it! I knew it was dead, but what the hell was it doing in my car?I make my way through the lobby completely ignoring the daggers Jen is sending my way. I have no idea what went down with her and Ares (and I really don't want to know) but she's been super bitchy since she left his office.I mak
