I thought he was joking. I stood there staring at him for a full minute until I realized he wasn’t kidding. Only Jake would have me almost naked in his office and yet ask me to get dressed. I rolled my eyes but did as he asked when my phone started to buzz from where I had dropped it on the table. To say my ego was not bruised would have been a lie. I grabbed my things and was about to leave when he grabbed my upper arm and pulled me to a stop. I refused to look at him, it would have meant letting him see how I truly felt but it was Jake and he already knew. He dropped his lips to my ear. “Don’t make the mistake of thinking that this means I don’t want you. I want more than anything to cancel my appointments for the day and f**k you until we are both hoarse but my secretary will come up
