Negotiations

I plop into my chair at my desk, completely exhausted from my conversation with my mother. I've basically been cut out of my family. I don't know if I left or they exiled me but the divide already existed before I moved out.I wish I could officially withdraw from the family. Tell them I don't need a card with fifty bucks on my birthday and I don't need to know when they leave the country. It would be nice not to feel like I need to inform them when I get a new job or send them my new address.The reason I can never bring myself to do it is that it feels harsh and final and they haven't done anything too horrible. I always felt like they never let me be a part of their family but if I made it final it would feel like it was me who made it that way instead of them.I look at the commitment contract on my desk and I know I'll be taking him up on the offer. I'll give my brother the money because, at the end of the day, I don't currently have a plan for it and my parents will keep calling

Yacht and Harbour Fees

"So, now that I know your terms, what are you hoping to receive as compensation?" he asks."What are you offering?" I ask in return.He smiles mischievously and says, "You want me to start the negotiations, I see. How about I double your salary, along with having access to my credit card like we already discussed?"I hide the shock from showing on my face. I know he's going in low, which means he expected me to ask for more. I have no idea how to negotiate so I offer a joke counter offer in a serious tone, "I was thinking more like property or maybe a medium sized yacht with the harbour fees covered.""Interesting, I didn't know you knew anything about yachting. How about you come up with a number that would cover the yacht and harbour fees and let me know," he says seriously."I don't actually want a yacht. Are you crazy, what would I do with it? Plus it's freezing most of the year in Chicago," I say, slightly annoyed. "How about you just tell me the highest amount you're willing to p

Melting Kisses

Picking up my belongings didn't take long. Cass looked at my packed bags and said jokingly, "Good thing you have my credit card, you can buy a few more things now."I chuckled and let him know I like to travel light though life.Now we're standing outside the Michelin star restaurant and I'm feeling nervous about out agreement for the first time. Call it stage fright if you will. I know I've already done this but that wasn't in an official capacity for a very big pay day. Now I feel like I need to be worth a million dollars.Cass takes my hand and startles me. " Don't worry you'll be fine. Mrs. Hutton drinks. By this time of day, she's not much of a talker," he encourages kindly."Thanks," I say blushing slightly. The atmosphere in the restaurant is intimidating and I instantly feel like I don't belong here, which is true. There is no way I could afford a meal here even if I could get a table, which I couldn't.We aren't even at our table when we're almost derailed. Valentine sits at

Don't be Embarrassed

By the time we arrive back at Cass's condo I'm tired from the evening but he throws me for a loop when we enter the elevator. I enter first and place my back against the wall so I'm facing the door, but Cass doesn't turn like me, instead he walks to me to hold my hands."Still cold," he says, surprised."I told you they're always cold," I respond, confused."I know, but the car was so warm, how could that not have helped? It was basically a sauna," he says exasperated.I roll my eyes and say, "The car wasn't that hot.""Carlos thought I was joking when I told him to set it at such a high temperature," he deadpans."Well, you don't have to do that. I'm honestly so used to it that I don't notice it," I say, starting to feel a bit overwhelmed by his concern and dominating presence.The doors open and I slip my hands out of his, hoping to escape. I don't make it far because the housekeeper, Magda, is waiting in the lobby for me.Luckily, my bags are already in my room so no help is needed

He's an Animal

"Please," is all I can say in the moment. I'm basically begging for a few small actions. No man has ever had this effect on my body. I would be crazy to turn him away and I'm pretty sure I can't even if I tried. My sanity has left the equation.He swiftly turns me so my back is to his front. One arm is wrapped around my upper body with my chin in a vice grip, his other arm is still low on my hip. He holds my head at the exact angle he wants it as he kisses his way down my neck. He nips my neck when it meets my collarbone and my legs weaken. He takes the moment of distraction to slip his hand under my parents and underwear in one move. He's smooth, not fumbling around like guys I'm used to. The moment two of his fingers make contact with my clit, my head falls back against his shoulder on a moan.I reach a hand up and run it through his thick, wavy then grab tight to anchor myself to this moment. His fingers on my clit are now moving in circles with more pressure, having quickly learne

Cass

I wake up face up on her bed with my legs dangling over the edge making my back curve in the most uncomfortable way. My pants are hanging off one leg and the condom is dangling from my soft dick. This is pathetic. Thank God she passed out too so I'm the only one to witness this.I sit and pull my pants back up. I knot the condom and put it in my pocket to throw out in my bathroom. Not that I don’t trust her, it just feels weird leaving behind a used condom in her waste bin.I stand and stretch out. I enjoy the view of Alexa in the moonlight and a small smile graces my face as I remember her responsiveness to me. I hope I wasn't too rough or that she regrets it because I plan on doing that again. I'm not ashamed to say I would even pay her if that's what it took.I walk through the condo back to my study and pour myself a scotch. I stare out the window and take a large gulp, then decide to throw it all back. F-ck she was good. I wasn't expecting that.Everything she did, every sound she

Sleepwalk Attack

She arrives at the office at 8am on the dot, ever the perfect employee. I feel like a puppy whose owner just came home. I want to go talk to her and figure out where her head is at with this whole situation, but I know that's not the right move. She'll come to me when she's ready.I also wait because I need to learn some f-cking restraint. This is not me, it never has been. People need me, not the other way around. I'd like to think this is just because I haven't been with a woman in a while, but I make sure to visit a very discreet club once a week to get the itch scratched.She'll eventually be coming into my office to bring me a coffee, so I force myself to focus on my work until then. I take my laptop to an armchair that I swivel to face out the window so that I can't give into temptation. It works, but I'm not proud that I need to go to these lengths.At ten, I hear a light warning tap on the door followed my Alexa entering. I turn my chair and see that she's not sure where to pu

The New Lex

I realize I'm cuddling him post sex and I'm slightly mortified. I don't think this man has cuddle once in his life, I just can't see him being that guy. I brace myself on his shoulders and push myself up so I can try to get my balance and stand.Cass notices me trying to stand, so he stands from the edge of the vanity and gently lowers me to the ground."So I didn't think that was going to happen when I brought you your coffee," I say as I straightened my clothes. I know I'm just talking nonsense to fill the silence, but I can't stop myself."You can skip the pretense of coffee in the future. You can just come straight in and seduce me from now on," he jokes.My jaw drops at the joke. I can't believe serious Mr. Conti just said that so easily, it's like he might actually have a funny bone, though much smaller than his intensity bone. A small chuckle escapes me at my inner thoughts and I think I may actually be losing my sanity.I finish straightening my clothes and step around Cass to

Breakfast with a Side of Breakfast

I sleep in Saturday morning and wake with the room already filled with sunshine. With the days being as short as they are at this time of year, I leave before the sun rises and return after it sets. I take time to enjoy the view before showering. I'm excited about enjoying a coffee while looking out on the city.I dress comfortably in a pair of low-hanging sweats and a tank top. The tank has a lining that allows me to go braless, which is heaven.I arrive in the kitchen to see Ana already there making breakfast. She must have heard me showering."Good morning Ana. Are you okay if I turn on some music?" I say brightly."Of course, it's too quiet. You're looking happy this morning," she says."I have a whole day ahead of me with nothing to do and the weather looks beautiful, so the options are endless," I explain. I connect my phone to the sound system and moments later Teenagers by My Chemical Romance is blasting from the speakers. I can't help laugh when Ana jumps in shock. She looks

Sebastian

We enjoy breakfast in companionable science. I don’t think either was expecting to have a mind-blowing orgasm so early in the morning and now our brains are rebooting. Unfortunately, our calm breakfast is interrupted when the elevator dings, announcing a visitor."Please tell me it's not Valentina," I pray jokingly, holding my hands together, looking up to the ceiling.Cass chuckles and says, "She doesn't have access anymore."He doesn't go to greet the visitor, just keeps eating knowing they'll come find him. Being a man is crazy. Where they get the confidence to act like there's no chance they'll ever be killed is beyond me. An assassin could simply walk in and make himself comfortable with the way Cass is acting."Are you going to check who that is?" I prompt."Nah, only a few people can get in. He'll come find me," he responds."He? So you know who it is?" I ask. His nonchalance is driving me crazy."Yeah, the only people who can get in other than staff and us are two of my brothe
