“For now I am.” The words blurted out of my mouth before I could edit them.
A chuckle came from him.
I relaxed my worry just a little.
At least he has a sense of humor.
“Hmmm,” he murmured.
I directed my attention back to him.
Hmmm?
He sported an amused expression. “I’ll only take it as far as you’ll let me.”
I raised my eyebrows. “Meaning?”
“If you let me, I’d ruin you for any other man.” He adjusted his jacket with a swagger, reminiscent of the bad boys I steered clear from in South End.
I don’t think we’re talking about hair and clothes anymore.
He targeted me with those green eyes that shimmered in the dim club lighting. He licked his lips. The movement caught me off guard. Heat swirled in places it shouldn’t have, being that it was in reaction to my boss and not an eligible man.
He can’t mean this in a sexual way. Calm down.
“Sorry. I believe I heard you wrong.” I leaned in closer to him. “I think the music messed up what you’re trying to tell me.”
“It didn’t. You heard me.”
“I don’t think I did.”
“You did.”
I exhaled. “Can you please repeat yourself?”
“The next time I say that, your legs will be open in front of me.”
Alarmed, my jaw lost its control. My mouth opened.
He just came on to me, and with no restraint at all.
Lust glittered over his eyes as he planted his view on my cleavage and then allowed his concentration to linger to my thighs.
“Do you have anything to say, Ms. Montgomery?”
“I-I’m not interested. You’re my boss,” I pointed out. “You have a fiancée and—”
“I didn’t ask you to state my biography.” His aroused expression shifted to a scowl. “And my engagement with my fiancée is not what it seems.”
I shook my head. “I’ll be your assistant. Nothing else.”
“Sex with me is not the job,” he corrected. “But it’s definitely something I would like to explore with you.”
I breathed in and out.
Stand your ground. Make this clear from the beginning. And whatever you do, don’t piss yourself.
I swallowed a gulp of nervousness. “I’m so sorry, but it’s not going to happen.”
