I woke early to find Gabe still sound asleep next to me. I took the opportunity to remove myself from his arms, from his bed. I don’t even know why we were cuddling. That wasn’t my doing unless I rolled over when I was sleeping. I searched for my things, getting dressed. I need to get out of here before he wakes up. I don’t want to face him. I can’t believe we have done this before, and he didn’t even tell me.
He sure had changed since when we first met. He wasn’t as ripped back then. He didn’t dress the way he does now, and he sure as hell wasn’t as arrogant either. Then again, I am not the same person I was all those years ago, either.
I made sure I had everything before sneaking out. I called a cab from outside to take me home. I don’t want him wakening up while I was still there. It was still early, so it was back to bed for me when I get

Clashing with the CEO Chapter Fourteen - Clashing again...
Gabe Aubrey and I were back at work and back at each other’s throat. Even after spending a good weekend together.“I am not stupid. I know what I am doing,” Aubrey snapped at me.“I didn’t say you don’t know. I was giving a suggestion,” I snapped back.“Well, you are talking to me like I don’t know what I am doing,” She hisses.This has pretty much been how the morning has gone. Kay tried to calm us down, threatening to give Aubrey a warning, but I told her not to do that. In the end? Both Kay and Darren left us to it, going somewhere else to work.She was pissing me off, but at the same time, her feistiness may have been turning me on slightly, also.“No, you are just making it seem that way to make me look like an asshole,” I growled.
Clashing with the CEO Chapter Fifteen - I will not be making a habit of this...
Aubrey I was waiting for Gabe to come to pick me. Why do I keep agreeing to this? And why would I agree after this morning? I don’t know what I am doing anymore. I swear the incredible sex we have shared has messed with my brain. Tonight though, it was only dinner. No sex, no drinks, just food and conversation. I am keeping my self-control tonight.I had kept myself casual. I don’t need to tempt him in any way. I had skinny jeans, heels, a tee, and a cardigan over the top. My hair was in a ponytail, and my makeup light.Right on time, there was a knock at my door. I grabbed my bag and went out. I don’t need him to come into my apartment; being alone somewhere private is not suitable for us.“Hey, you look nice,” he smiles.“Thanks, you too,” I reply.I will take nice. It is better than sexy or somet
Clashing with the CEO Chapter Sixteen - Make the most of it...
Gabe Our night had gone well. We played nice and behaved. I don’t think I will ever get used to this strange dynamic we have got going on. One minute we are fighting, the next we are fucking, and then we are friendly. What is that all about?We had just arrived back at her place, and I was walking her to the door. I can be a gentleman, sometimes! Aubrey rests against her front door.“Thank you for dinner,” she smiles.“You are welcome,” I reply, smiling, also.Dinner was good, delicious. Suddenly, a silence came between us, but our eyes stayed connected. I wanted to close the space between us and kiss her, but I don’t know if it would be the right move.“I should go,” I said.It was best that I did because I don’t want to do something that will make Aubrey slap me, not after
Clashing with the CEO Chapter Seventeen - Too good to stay away!
AubreyIt took me a moment to realise where I was when I woke up, but I soon remember I was in bed with Gabe, again! Why do I keep doing this? I know why because the sex is incredible! It makes me feel good. I looked down and realised I was wrapped tightly in his arms. When did that happen? When I fell asleep were facing the opposite direction, and there was space between us on the bed. Now, his front was pressed to my back, his arms wrapped around me. There was no room between us.I gently remove his arms from around me and climb out of bed.“Sneaking off?”I hear Gabe’s tired voice ask.“No, I am going to the bathroom,” I state.It was true. I wasn’t going to sneak out. I needed the bathroom.“Hmm, OK, then come back to bed,” he groans.I didn’t
Clashing with the CEO Chapter Eighteen - Week from hell...
GabeIt has been the week from hell. Everything had been going wrong, between work and my damn ex-girlfriend suddenly getting back in touch with me! And on top of all of that, I have barely even seen Aubrey outside of work. That was my fault! I get that way if my ex comes around or contacts me. She was the only woman I ever let myself fall in love with, and she broke my damn heart! It is still something that gets to me even now. My ex has some strange power over me, and I hate it. It makes me weak and fucks with my head, heart, and moods. Hence, why I have been avoiding Aubrey.I turn into even more of an asshole when this happens. It was bad enough I have been acting like a jackass more than usual at work. But tonight, it was time for an apology. Aubrey, I believe, got tired of me, and I don’t blame her. Today at work, she didn’t even look at me and only spoke to me if she needed to.I was

Aubrey Gabe and I had arrived at our hotel. He had rearranged the appointment for tomorrow with his friend because we didn’t get away from work until four p.m. rather than two p.m.“I will book us in,” he said, going over to the desk.I stood with our bags. It was only overnight bags because we didn’t need to bring much with us. Gabe was making his way back to me in only a matter of minutes.“Come on, gorgeous,”He takes the bags from me in one hand and offers me his other. I am hesitant for a moment but take it, and he leads us to the elevator and up to our room.“How about we get showered and head out for dinner?” he suggests.“Yes, sounds good. I am famished,”I haven’t really eaten much today. I had breakfast and only an apple for

Gabe Aubrey and I were at Cora’s store. We arrived half an hour ago, but we hadn’t started looking yet because I was catching up with Cora, and she and Aubrey were getting to know each other.“How long have you two been together? I didn’t think Gabe was the dating type,” Cora said.I probably should have mentioned to her what Aubrey and I were.“We aren’t dating,” Aubrey said quickly.“Aubrey works for my family and me,” I said.“Bullshit! You two may not be dating, but you are fucking,” she laughs.I should have known Cora would work that out. She has known me a long time and knows me better than most. She was the first woman ever to tell me to get to fuck when I tried to hit on her, but we became friends that same night.&ldqu
Clashing with the CEO Chapter Twenty One - I will learn one day
Aubrey Gabe and I had just arrived back from our trip. I do have to admit I am glad that I agreed to go with him. It turned out to be a good weekend. I am also proud of myself for keeping control and not having sex with him. I told myself I wouldn’t, but at the same time, I believe I would have given in. And I will give it to Gabe. He behaved better than I thought he would. However, he has been acting a little strange since he saw me in the dress I chose. I have no clue what was going on, and I was not going to ask either. “Do you want to come up for a coffee?” I ask as we sit outside my place in his car. He looked at the time and thought about it. “Yes, I can come up for a little while,” he smiles. I nod, getting out of the car. I grab my bag from the back, and Gabe gets out, and we head to mine. I get my things into the washing machine and put a pot

All the desks were in one large open area so everyone could work in the same space. Gabe and I had our office. We had a food bar set up with everything from cereal to candy, plenty of drinks, and there will be fresh food every single day. We wanted to make a space where everyone would be comfortable. Our staff will consist of forty people in total. I couldn’t wait to get started. The place is decorated with blue and white. It was modern in style. It is everything we pictured it to be. Ga

Gabe “Will you please tell me where we are going? You can’t ask a girl to dress up, take her in the car somewhere and not tell her.” Aubrey huffs from next to me. “No, you will find out soon enough. It doesn’t matter how many times you ask. I am not going to tell you.” I reply firmly. “Fine!” she groans. I laugh and shake my head. The woman had no patience. I know once she realises my plan, she will forgive me. I had a special night planned for us. I enjoy spoiling my stunning fiancée. I am still trying to get used to calling Aubrey that, but we have only been engaged a week. I was eager to make my wife, but we didn’t want to hurry things. “We are here.” I smile, finding a parking spot. Aubrey looks around, a confused look on her face. “Why are we at a hotel?” she asked, c

Aubrey “Marry me, Aubrey….”Wait, did I hear him right? Did he just ask me to marry him? I stilled and lifted my head to look at him.“What? Did I hear you right?” I asked, surprised.“Yes. Marry me?” he repeated.Oh My God, I did hear him right. I stood there, just staring at him. I needed a moment to process his words. Where did that come from? I was not expecting it.“Are you being serious?” I stammered out.“Yes. I love you, and I know in my heart you are the one for me. I don’t ever want to be with anyone else, only you, my love….” He trailed off, the nervousness evident in his voice.I love him too, with everything I have in me. I was ready to spend the rest of my life with him, bu

Gabe Aubrey and I had just arrived at the launch party in the limo.“Are you ready for this, my love?” I asked, looking at her.“As ready as I can be.” She smiled.I nodded and kissed her softly. She looked stunning tonight, and a part of me couldn’t wait to show her off to everyone. The limo door opened, and I stepped out first. The place was swimming with the pressed guests walking in, stopping for photos. The place was crazy. I knew it would be a big deal tonight. I just didn’t realise how much of a big deal.I turned around, offered Aubrey my hand. She smiled widely at me, took it, and I helped her out of the car. The moment she saw what awaited outside, she was like a deer in the headlights. She wasn’t used to all of this, not to this extent.“I am right

Aubrey I had dragged Gabe out shopping with me. I was supposed to go with a friend, but she was sick, so I decided that Gabe would take her place, much to his dismay. I was looking for a dress for the launch party next week. Gabe had his outfit, and it took him like ten minutes to find it online. By doing that, he believed he would get out of shopping altogether, but that didn’t go as planned for him.“Please don’t take all day, my love,” he pouted.“I won’t, promise, then maybe we can stop by the lingerie shop,” I smirked.“Mmm, yes, please…” he groaned.I would say that was a good compromise. I knew he would like that idea.“But there is a catch to it,” I smirked, “You can’t complain again about going shopping with me, or

Gabe Aubrey and I have been living together for a couple of weeks now, and it is going great! I love having her there, and I have been happy non-stop since she did.I was at Aubrey’s work today for us all to finish off the project for MV. They were pleased with everything and had won the bid to advertise for them. We only had a couple of minor things left before it went live. It was going to be incredible. I am proud of the team; with us all working together, it had turned out perfectly. Everyone was happy, which was the main thing.I was currently heading into the break room to get a coffee. I noticed a few women who work with the company, but they didn’t notice me coming in.“I still think that is how Aubrey got to work on the project because she is screwing the CEO,” one said.I can’t remember h

Aubrey I was eagerly waiting for Gabe to get back. He should be here soon. I had missed him these last few days. As I thought about him, I heard the front door open.“Hey, sweetness, where you at?” he called out.I grinned to myself, got up from the sofa and went to greet him. He smiled brightly when he saw me approach him. The second I was within arm’s reach, he grabbed me and pulled me to him, kissing me passionately. I moaned, slipped my arms around and kissed him back. He held me tight to his body.We parted after a minute.“I missed you, my love,”“I missed you too,” I replied and kissed him again.He didn’t seem to mind. I missed not only him but his kisses and bedtime cuddles. When we stopped kissing, he pulled me to his chest and h

Gabe I woke with a pounding headache and the hangover from hell! We got back to the hotel at six a.m., and most of last night was a blur. I checked my phone and saw I had called Aubrey in the early hours. It took me a moment, but then I remembered why I called her and that I told her I would call her first thing.I hit the call button on her name. I wasn’t sure if she would answer because I knew she had plans with her friends today, but I wasn’t sure of the time she was leaving. It rang only a couple of times, and then she answered.“Good morning, love. Are you rough?” she giggled.“Morning, sweetheart. Yes, very,” I groaned.“Aww, my poor baby,” she teased.“Come and look after me,”“Nope! No one to blame but yourself, s

Aubrey Gabe was away for the weekend with a few of his friends for one of their bachelor parties. The wedding was in a couple of weeks, and he asked me to go as his date, to which I agreed. I had plans with my girls tomorrow. We were going for a spa day which I was looking forward to because it has been a busy week.As for Gabe and me, we were keeping it on the down-low for now, well, to the people at work anyway. It is none of their business. The most important people know, and I am sure the time will come everyone at work will find out. But I don’t care. The fact doesn’t even bother me now. What is the worst that can happen? They judge. What is new in this day and age? I have another job to go to if I need to. My personal life has nothing to do with anyone.I was currently in bed, reading. Yes, it sounds boring for a Friday night, but I enjoyed it. I had
