As soon as Mr Norman walked inside his office, I jumped to my feet and begun to fiddle with my fingers, not trusting myself to look his way.
"Miss Linton." He said, stepping towards me.
"Yes sir." I answered without looking up.
"Do you love to defy me?" I let out a nervous laugh. "Of course not sir."
"Do you like when am mad?"
I gulp then shake my head.
He stepped closer.
Good god!
"Do you like when I back you in a corner and scowl you like a bad little girl?"
I gulped once more.
"I can assure you that I get no pleasure from either sir." I assured him, taking a couple steps back.
"That's because we both know what gives you pleasure." My annoying inner voice said.
"Shut up!"
"I beg your pardon."
Oh just shoot me already!
"Did you just tell me to shut up?" He asked in a daring tone.
I shook my head quickly. Still not making eye contact.
"Sorry sir. I mistakenly think aloud." I mumbled with embarrassment.
I frown at my stupid behaviour while I continue to fiddle with my fingers. A strange habit of mine.
I could feel his gaze on me, trying to see if he could figure out what was going on through my mind but knowing him, he probably did already.
"Hmmm, Miss Linton?"
"Yes si-"
"Eye contact." He cuts me off. His deep and husky voice doing things to my body it shouldn't be doing.
Letting out a small defeated sigh, I slowly lift my head, locking my eyes with his.
"Good!" He said pleasingly. "Now tell me why you go against my orders again."
"Ok"
Well
"Well...."
"Well?" He urged me on.
"Well you see sir, It really wasn't my fault. Your brother just took quite a long time to get the message across." I paused. "Too busy trying to flirt." I mumbled the last Part to myself, hoping he wouldn't hear but given the way his body suddenly became stiff or should i say stiffer than it usually is, I knew he heard me loud and clear.
"And did you enjoy his attempt to flirt?" He asked. Voice sounding strange and unlike the cool and collective one am use to.
"No I did not." I said truthfully.
"Miss Linton?" He breathe out.
"Yes sir."
"Eye contact." He demand once more.
I hesitantly turn my head to see him looking at me. "Why do you always have to look at me when you speak?" I asked curiously, his forehead wrinkled in concentration.
"Because your eyes tells me what your mouth refuse to." he replied. I open my mouth to say something but he cuts me off.
Again!
"As my P.A I expect you to answer to my every beck and call. You will not flirt with anyone nor will you take pleasure In their attempt to flirt. As your boss and Mentor, I am the only man you should be getting personal with. Not my brother or business associates, or anyone else to be precise. I want all your attention and your commitment. You work for me and believe it or not you belong to me until further notice." he stepped closer. So close I could feel his breath caressing my face. oh my God. "Do I make myself clear?"
Not being able to form words, I stupidly hang my mouth open, letting out strangling sounds.
I watch as he leant forward and gently took hold of my chin, closing my mouth shut while keeping eye contact.
"I'm waiting for my answer Miss Linton." He breathes out. His eyes now fixated on my lips.
I bit my lips on instinct then slowly nod my head. "I understand sir but what I don't understand is why react the way you do?"
Using his thumb to to run across my bottom lip, he sucks in a sharp breath them breathe out slowly. All I wanted to do at this very moment was to grab him by the back of his neck and kiss him senselessly.
And believe it or not, that's exactly what I did.
Clashing my mouth with his, they moulded perfectly. At first i thought he would of pushed me away but the way he forced his tongue between my lips showed how much he wanted to do this. How much he as been refraining himself from activities such as this and I couldn't help but give him a moan of approval.
His scent was intoxicating, and his strong arms that were now wrapped around my waist gave me a feeling of warmth and a sense of belonging.
And even when I tighten my arms around his neck and pulled him closer, I still felt as though we weren't close enough.
Seconds
Minutes
Hours
I had no idea how long we stood there devouring the taste of each other but when we finally pulled apart with ragged breaths and beating hearts, I knew it was for quite a while.
"Was that personal enough for you?" I asked between pants but instead of an answer as expected, I was drown against the wall with his lips slamming against mine once more.
I had no idea what was happening but all I knew was , I needed this! I needed him! All of him and the way his hands travelled up my thighs, proved how much he needed me too.
I nibble and suck on his bottom lip, causing the hand on my waist to tighten. I sucked harder at his reaction where I was rewarded with a sexy growl.
"Your just so...." He trailed off, pushing his body harder against me with his tongue molesting my mouth, earning another involuntary moan, this time, accompany with his name.
He instantly pulled away, stumbling a little from me then groan in frustration, running his hands that were once giving me pleasure through his hair.
"Did I do something wrong?" I asked softly. Sensing his change of mood.
He shake his head and clenched his eyes shut. " You should go."
"Bu-"
"I will need you to accompany me to New York tomorrow."
"But," he opened his eyes and stare at me with what seemed like regret.
"I need you to go." He said softly.
"But what if I don't wanna?" I asked walking towards him.
He stepped away from me then turn and walk to his desk. "What just happened was a mistake. A very very bad mistake Miss Linton so I suggest you leave."
I shook my head at his words. "It wasn't a mistake. That was amazing. We were amazing" I confess hoping he would agree with what I was saying but he just gave me the cold shoulder and sat in his chair.
"Get out Miss Linton."
I stood my ground.
"Get out!" He yelled angrily.
I swallow the tears that were threatening to spill then made my way towards the door. Turning to give him a second look before walking out.
