Page 65 of The Heart You Kept

I shrug. “Maybe a little bit.”

“Was it good?”

“Very.”

“I fucking knew it.” She throws her hands up in the air. “He has huge, big dick energy. I can smell it a mile off.”

Sure does.

“Anyway,” I whisper. “He bid on the auction on Saturday night and now he is here to make my life miserable because he and Pascal hate each other.”

“Screw Pascal,” she whispers. “This guy is way hotter.”

“He’s got a girlfriend. A princess.” I widen my eyes.

“You could totally take her,” she huffs as she once again spies on him through the blinds.

“I’m not interested in him like that.”

“Oh my god,” she murmurs.

“What?” I get up and go to the window to see what she’s looking at; Edward has taken off his suit coat and is leaning over a chair. His tight ass and thick quad muscles are on display.

“He is so fucking fine.” She sighs dreamily.

Don’t I know it….

“He’s taken. I’m taken…. This won’t be an issue.”

“So can I sleep with him?”

“Absolutely not.”

For half an hour I have sat at my desk and listened to Jonty and Edward bicker while Helene watches him with love heart eyes, and for the life of me I don’t know what to say or do.

His little cleaning-out-vagina comment indicates that he’s still in flirt mode, and this has to come to an end once and for all. This is not happening in any shape or form.

Having him around is playing with fire, a fire that could burn my life to the ground.

“And in here is another camera.” Jonty opens the office door and gestures up to the camera.

“What are you doing?” I ask.

“Just showing him where all of the security cameras are.”

“Why?”

“You know.” Jonty widens his eyes. “Interning need-to-know stuff.”

“Right.” I concentrate on keeping my eyes on my computer screen so that I don’t have to look at his fuckable face.

“Out through this back door is the bathroom, it’s off this little courtyard, see,” I hear Jonty explain. “But there’s a camera out here too. See.”

“Is this courtyard secure?”

“Well, it has a brick wall around it so nobody can get in,” Jonty replies.

“Because nobody ever jumped a brick wall before,” I hear Edward mutter under his breath.
