All Chapters of Pleasure Under His Command : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

The party continued till 12 midnight, glittering chandeliers casting a warm glow over the crowd. Laughter, soft music, and the clinking of glasses filled the air, but Izzy felt detached, like she was watching from the outside.Dominic’s voice had cut through the noise earlier, sharp and controlled. Step away from him, the way he said sent a shiver down her spine. And. she had obeyed without a word. But the sting of his dominance still lingered.She tried to enjoy herself, circulating politely among the guests, holding a glass of wine, and nodding to familiar faces. But every time she glanced toward Dominic, her chest tightened.He was laughing with Sienna, the woman from his trip, her red lips curved in a smile that seemed effortless, her hand lightly brushing his arm. His laughter was deep, warm,...meant for Sienna, not her.Izzy’s stomach twisted with jealousy. She wanted to step forward, to demand attention, but a small voice in her head reminded her of what he had said earlier...

Izzy’s hands clutched the towel around her tighter, still trying to calm the rapid beat of her heart. The moment felt surreal... Dominic was at her place, his dark eyes locked on hers.“I… would you like something to drink?” she asked nervously, motioning toward the kitchen.He held up a hand, cutting her off. “No drinks,” he said firmly, his dark eyes glinting with amusement. “I want a house tour.”“A… house tour?” she repeated, confused, blinking at him.Dominic stepped inside before she could respond, the air between them charged with intensity. “Yes. Starting with your bedroom,” he added, his voice low and commanding. “You live here alone, don’t you?”Izzy’s stomach flipped. “I… I do,” she whispered, feeling a mix of nervousness and anticipation. She wasn’t sure whether she should feel flustered or excited... probably both.Dominic’s gaze swept the room as he took a step further in, his eyes lingering on her with that unreadable intensity that always left her breathless. “Good,” h

Monday morning arrived with its usual chaos, emails flooding in, phones ringing, and the steady hum of Steele Enterprises’ office.Izzy’s head still buzzed from the weekend, the memories of Dominic at her apartment making it almost impossible to concentrate.She tried to shake it off, straightening her blazer and smoothing her hair as she entered the sleek office space. The glass walls, chrome desks, and soft hum of air conditioning were a sharp contrast to the warmth and chaos of her weekend.She made her way to her desk, pretending to focus on her computer, typing out emails with precise movements.Her heart skipped every time she thought of the weekend, but she tried to bury it. This is work. Strictly work. No distractions.Dominic appeared in the office shortly after, moving through the room with his usual commanding presence. His dark eyes scanned the team briefly before landing on Izzy. Her chest tightened. She reminded herself to stay professional.He approached her desk, his s

Izzy followed the resort staff down the long, bright hallway, dragging her small suitcase behind her. The carpet was soft, and her heels made almost no sound as she walked. She finally stopped in front of a door that read:Room 214 – Izzy Hart, Lily Chen, Grace Moore, and Tessa Boyd.She sighed.Roommates.Pushing the door open, she found a large, cozy room with four beds, cream-colored curtains, and a small balcony that overlooked the calm blue lake. The air smelled faintly of pine and new linen.Her three colleagues were already there... laughing, unpacking, and chatting about the weekend.“Hey, Izzy!” Lily said cheerfully. “We saved the bed by the window for you!”“Thanks,” Izzy replied, smiling politely. She set her bag down beside the bed and joined in their conversation for a few minutes. They talked about the trip, the schedule, and who might be giving speeches that night.But after a while, Izzy excused herself and went into the bathroom to freshen up.The bright lights reflec

The night was beautiful... calm, quiet, and wrapped in silver moonlight.The lake shimmered like glass, and the soft breeze carried the faint scent of pine. Izzy walked slowly beside Adrian, her heels clicking lightly against the wooden path that curved along the shore.Adrian was talking about a new branch of his company, Cross Dynamics, that had just opened in New York. His voice was smooth and confident... the kind of tone that drew people in.“You know,” Adrian said, smiling down at her, “you’re nothing like the assistants Dominic usually hires. Most of them were either terrified of him or trying to get his attention. But you... You’ve got fire.”Izzy laughed softly, looking down at the water. “Fire? That’s one word for it.”He chuckled, watching her face carefully. “And I like fire. It’s rare in this business. Most people just want to please whoever signs their paycheck. But you are pretty with brains.”Izzy turned her head slightly toward him. “Thank you. And you don’t…”“Please
