PROLOGUE
PROLOGUE
Ethan Hayes sleeping beside him, wondering if the universe had finally decided to punish him for every sarcastic comment he'd ever made.
Adrian Alexander Blackwood.
His boss.
The man who could silence an entire boardroom with a single look. The billionaire who treated smiles like a financial liability. The Alpha whose presence alone could make people straighten their backs and reconsider their life choices.
And somehow, impossibly, Ethan had ended up alone with him.
In Adrian's penthouse.
At midnight.
With his heart beating like it was trying to escape his chest.
"This is a terrible idea," Ethan whispered.
Adrian's gaze remained fixed on him. "Then tell me to take you home."
Ethan opened his mouth.
Nothing came out.
He should have asked Adrian to take him home. He should have remembered that this was the man who could fire him before breakfast and forget his name by lunch.
Instead, Ethan took a small step closer
"Are you sure?" Adrian asked quietly. "Because I won't ask you twice, and I won't hold you to anything tomorrow."
Ethan searched his face, looking for the arrogance he knew so well. He found none.
"I'm sure," he whispered.
Adrian moved closer, slowly enough that Ethan could change his mind. When their lips met, Ethan forgot every sensible thought he'd ever possessed.
The kiss began cautiously, almost questioningly. Then Ethan reached for Adrian's shirt, and the billionaire made a quiet, surprised sound that sent warmth rushing through him.
For once, Adrian wasn't controlling the room.
Neither was Ethan.
They were simply two people standing too close, discovering something neither had planned to find.
When Adrian drew back, he rested his forehead against Ethan's.
"Still sure?" he murmured.
Ethan nodded, breathless. "Stop asking questions."
For the first time, Adrian smiled.
And Ethan kissed him again.
The next moment their clothes were off as Adrian's back came in contact with the sheets Adrian smiled as Ethan took off his pants and continued kissing Adrian
Ethan began to trail hot kisses from Adrian's collar bone to his temples to the abdomen and down to his v line as Adrian Moaned
Ethan undid Adrian's pants and was slowly stroking Adrian's length with his right hand as Adrian gave out a low deep groan
"Say my name Adrian and I'll make you feel better"
Adrian Moaned as he called out "Ethan"
Ethan increased his speed
Adrian Moaned louder
"Ethan I want to c*m in your mouth, I can't hold back much longer"
"Then call me Daddy"
"PLEASE"
"It's Daddy not please" Ethan grinned
"Ethan... Daddy... Please.."
Ethan engulfed his length with his mouth
Adrian grabbed Ethan hair and moaned louder
Few moments louder I meant later
"Ethan I'm cumin" Adrian groaned as Ethan increased his speed
Adrian groaned as he finished in Ethan's mouth
Ethan smiles as he wipes his mouth with his hand
Adrian looks at him with pure lust and satisfaction
"Now it's your turn" Adrian smiles as he gets on top of Ethan
(IMAGINATION)
Later, beneath the soft glow of the penthouse lights, Ethan found himself laughing quietly at the sheer absurdity of his situation. Adrian held him close, one arm wrapped around his waist, his usual coldness replaced by an almost disbelieving tenderness.
Ethan stared at the ceiling.
I just took advantage my boss.
He turned his head.
Adrian was watching him.
I kissed my ridiculously handsome, terrifyingly wealthy boss.
"Ethan?"
"Don't."
"I haven't said anything."
"You're thinking something. I can tell."
Adrian's mouth curved. "You're surprisingly talkative for someone who has no explanation for why he's still here."
Ethan buried his face against Adrian's shoulder.
"This is a nightmare."
"Would you like me to take you home?"
Ethan tightened his arms around him.
Adrian chuckled softly and kissed his forehead.
"No," Ethan muttered. "Unfortunately, I think I'm exactly where I want to be."
And that frightened him more than anything.
Because tomorrow morning, Adrian Blackwood would still be his boss.
And Ethan had absolutely no idea how he was supposed to look that man in the eye and pretend nothing had happened.
