Reclaiming Her Heart

Step One

Dylan's POV

I wanted to apologise for hurting her and her family, especially her. I also wanted to explain myself and give answers to all her questions from ten years ago. But this wasn't the time for that yet.

With this contract, though, I would make sure I have the right space and chance to talk to her about it.

I picked up the contract, flipping through each page to see the so-called changes she's made.

Miss Mia Jason agrees to spend personal time outside work hours with client Mr Dylan Scott, on all days of the week including weekends. She added under it, For three to four hours a day, weekends excluded.

Four hours is more than enough for me. I could work with that.

I smiled a bit as I read the next clause. During travel, Miss Mia Jason must sleep in the same room as the client, Mr Dylan Scott. She wrote under it in capital letters... DREAM ON. THAT'S NOT HAPPENING.

I looked up at her, amused. "Don't tell me you don't trust yourself enough to stay away from me, Miss Jason?"

She glared at me. "I can stay away from you, Mr Scott. But I do not trust you one bit."

"Don't be like that Mia. You know I wouldn't do anything unholy with you for now. Will you be uncomfortable sharing a room with a man? You shouldn't be." I laughed. "It's not like I haven't seen you naked before anyway. Sure, your body has a few wonderful changes I'd love to see clearly but I'll see them only when you're ready to have me." I'll make sure of it.

She scoffed. " How am I supposed to trust you when you say s**t like this? You've seen me naked then and that's that. You won't be seeing any part of me again. You don't deserve it."

I smiled, leaning back in my seat. I locked eyes with her before I let my gaze roam her entire body slowly, I could visualise everything beneath her clothes, but that wasn't enough.

I remembered all the times I'd f****d her from behind while tugging her hair, or when I'd sucked her t**s while she rode my d**k. Then I imagined bending her over the table right there in my office and s******g her ass for being so bitchy towards me. I deserve her cold attitude but I need her to forgive me already.

I wanted her on my face again, my hands fondling her ass while she rides my face. I needed to stick my tongue inside her like the good old days. My d**k hardened at the thought of thrusting deep inside her warm hole and I would've done something really stupid if she hadn't brought me back to reality.

She snapped her fingers and said sarcastically. "Are you done sexually assaulting me with your eyes, Mr Scott?"

"That's a bit harsh considering the fact you enjoyed it." I smiled.

"I did not enjoy anything, you disgusting pervert."

"So if I slid a finger or two to check, you wouldn't be wet for me right now?" I teased, half hoping she'd let me.

"You can go ahead and check. I can even remove my panties for you to keep as a souvenir." She was annoyed. "Why on earth would I get turned on by your nasty, highly unprofessional behaviour?" She shook her head and sighed. "Look, we have no reason to share a room, when there are other rooms available. Think about what people would say if they found out we stayed in a room together. I don't want the world to think I sleep with my Clients."

"Who cares what the world thinks? Just say you don't want to sleep with me."

"I don't want to, okay? Are you happy now?"

"Miss Jason, please trust me. I am a clean man with the purest intention, so you don't need to have any fear or doubts about sharing a room with me."

"No thank you, Angel Dylan. I'll pass."

I decided not to drag the conversation further and continued reading the contract.

Miss Mia Jason, must be available to travel with client, Mr Dylan Scott, at all times by land, sea or air. She also agrees to be present for all schedules she has planned for the client.

In a small neat handwriting, she wrote underneath: I already planned to be with you during all interviews, dinner parties and luncheons because I don't trust your dumbass. You could ruin everything for us if you're left alone.

I almost laughed. She's right, I would've caused a mess. On purpose.

The next clauses were left the way they were so it was safe to assume he was okay with the rest of my terms. I smiled at her as I dropped the contract on the table but she just rolled her eyes and looked away. Ouch.

I picked up the telephone to call Bella.

"Are you busy at the moment?"

"No sir."

"Great. Come to my office now."

"Yes, Mr. Scott. I'll be there."

A few minutes later, she walked in, and I gave her the contract. "Draft another one of this and return it to me as soon as it's done. Also, clear my schedule for the rest of the day."

"Will do that right now, Mr Scott." She glanced at Mia awkwardly before heading out.

Soon, she was back with the new contract and I signed it happily while Mia signed it reluctantly. I guess she was already having a bad feeling or second thoughts about it.

She was right to feel that way, but she was too late because by signing the contract, she'd just helped me with the first step of my plan to reclaim her heart.
