The request seemed inconsequential compared to her bargaining power at this point.
“Done.”
“Thank you, Mr. Benson.”
We’d moved back a step from Dennis to Mr. Benson.
“Dennis,” I corrected her.
“Very well, Dennis. What do you have for me to do today?”
I couldn’t give her any of the lewd answers that came instantly to mind. “Familiarize yourself with the Stoner transaction.”
My cell phone rang. Bill Covington’s name appeared on the screen.
She stood. “Anything else?”
“No, that’s it to start with.”
I realized I’d just had a taste of the treatment she’d given Talbot yesterday. She knew she had the leverage, and she’d used it to get a better deal. This morning she’d had the leverage on me, but that would change.
She stood and turned to leave.
I reached for the phone while admiring her ass. My cock stirred at the sight of her hips swaying. I blinked back the mental image of that ass bouncing on my cock. I would grab those hips and give her a ride she wouldn’t forget. I blinked and the image of me spearing her burned itself into my brain.
She reached the door and looked back, breaking my mental image of her naked. Her mouth twitched, and she bit her lower lip. Could she feel it too?

I turnedat the door and caught him looking. I smiled as I left.

The man had a weakness after all. The master of the universe was forgetful.
I reached Cindy’s desk. “Thank you,” I said softly.
She looked up from her typing. “Did it go well?”
“Satisfactory, I’d say.”
I didn’t need her to know how over-the-top happy I was about the outcome. The M&M girls had been right about rejecting his first offer, and it had netted me a raise that definitely put a three-bedroom place in our future.
“That’s good, because sometimes he can be a little clueless about how tight money is for the rest of us.”
“He wants me to look over the Stoner deal. Where do I find those files?”
“I’ll get them for you in a moment—as soon as I’m done with this one thing for Larry.” She pointed to the notes she was working from.
I backed away toward the restroom. This morning’s coffee was getting to me. “I’ll be in my office.”
