“Understood, sir sounds good anyway. Start from the beginning Ms. Livingston. I need to know everything. And don’t worry I have plenty of time for you.” I reached down and adjusted my slacks. My shit was so hard it was hurting. Her eyes instinctively followed my motion, and they slightly widened at my print. She cleared her throat and pressed the keys on the keyboard avoiding looking back in my direction.
“Well like I said, I have an extensive resume’. If you look here, you will see our top accounts for the firm. A third of which I brought on. Your father holding the majority.” She turned her screen in my direction, and I tried to focus on her words. Everything about her ass had me intrigued and turned the fuck on. Even her geeking out and talking numbers about my family’s company. I could tell she loved what she did.
I knew she would make a great partner because she didn’t let anyone say anything out of line to her. My mother would be a fool not to make her partner, but could I work with her knowing I needed to put my dick down her throat every time she got smart or disobeyed me? She would be my greatest challenge yet.
Chapter Seven
BLYTHE
No one at this point could get under my skin more than Pharaoh’s ass. It was like he tried on a daily to piss me off and he’s only been here two weeks. He was always around. Anywhere I was he just so happened to appear.
He had all the females in the office smitten. They laughed and blushed at anything his ass would say no matter if it was funny or not. That would only further piss me off. I did my best to avoid him all week and I thought I was in the clear until the knocks came at my door and he stood there looking every bit of the chocolate God he was. He knew it too with his arrogant ass.
After our back and forth for dominance I gave up and showed him my work. I was proud of my clientele, and it was evident in my presentation. He seemed really intrigued by what I had to say. He asked questions and eventually he pulled his chair around the desk to my side to see my screen more clearly. I haven’t been able to control my breathing since. He smelled so fuckin’ good. It wasn’t just his cologne either he had a masculine smell. Very fresh and woody on top of his expensive cologne smell. It invaded my nostrils and sent a direct jolt down to my kitty every time he reached over me to ask about something on the screen. Knocks sounded at the door pulling both of our attention to it.
“Come in.”
“Hey boss lady. I am heading out. Everything was submitted and I included you on the email responses. I also forwarded your phones. You need anything else before I go?” Autumn was speaking to me, but her gaze bounced between Pharaoh and me.
“No, that is all Autumn. Thank you so much.”
“Of course. See you Sunday.” She blew me a kiss before easing out the door. I winked and returned my attention to the screen. My alarm sounded alerting me it was almost six pm.
“Damn we been in here two hours.” Pharaoh reached up and stretched. My eyes scanned his body and fell on the print in his slacks. He loosened his tie and leaned his elbows on his knees. He looked comfortable with no intention to wrap this up.
“So, Mr. McCallum, we have covered a lot. And as you can see, I am committed to my work and this company. Are you ready to wrap this up or do you need more of my time and knowledge.” He chuckled and leaned back in his chair. Instinctively I licked my lips scanning him from head to toe. I didn’t understand how something so arrogant could be this damn fine.
“Blythe, sweetheart. Please call me Pharaoh.”
“Why?” I crossed my arms over my chest and leaned back in my chair. I crossed my leg over my thigh and noticed his eyes trail my motion. He swallowed hard before looking back up at me.
“The battle for dominance is cute but honestly, I just want a laid-back team. Team being the operative word. That’s how I operate in St. Louis and the company is thriving.”
“We are thriving here too.” I cut his words off a little offended. We were doing damn good even with the titles drawn in the sand. He scratched his head and exhaled deep.
“You done?” He asked with his finger pointed in my direction. I threw up my hands in surrender.
“Like I was saying before I was rudely interrupted.” I rolled my eyes and crossed my arms back over my chest. “Yes, the company runs well here but St. Louis runs slightly different. Only on paper is the roles titled. In person we are all equal. We work as a family. No stepping on toes, no they are beneath me shit. Just all working together for the good of the company.” I was impressed. There was definitely a hierarchy here which is why I was fighting so hard for partner.
“Granted we have partners that work their asses off but inside the office we work together. We share ideas, buy coffee, make copies. Whatever. My dominance is for relationships. Not my office.” Hmm, so he is a dom. He naturally exuded it, but I wouldn’t dare ask.
“Impressive.” Was my only reply. We sat staring at each other trying to read each other’s expression. My phone ringing pulled my attention away.
“Yes, Autumn?” I spoke into the phone. Pharaoh diverted his attention and retrieved his phone from his pocket as a distraction.
“Is his fine ass still in your office?” He ran his hand down his head hearing her words clear as day. I turned down my volume and stood to close my blinds.
“Girl, bye.”
“Oh, shit he must be. Call me when you get in the car. I need to know what y’all been doing for hours.”
“Goodbye.”
“No B, for real don’t forget.”
“Okay, bye.” I hung up and walked over to my desk. I smoothed down my skirt to soothe some of the embarrassment.
“Is she your sister?” He asked looking up at me as he stuffed his phone back in his pocket.
