Alexander’s POV I was at the restaurant with Patrick, telling him everything that happened. He looked at me, shocked."I can't believe she's not wearing any underwear with that provocative little dress?"When he said that, I realized she was very exposed and could end up in an embarrassing situation away from me. That wasn't good. But I had torn her underwear, and even if I hadn't, I wouldn't have given it back to her."Bro, this woman is driving me crazy. Today it seems she decided to test my limits.""Don't complain, bro, you started it. What did you expect?""Man, I told her to come in early just to tease her, and sure, I was going to rile her up a bit, but I wasn't going to touch her. I just didn't think she'd come ready for war, with that tight dress that shows too much leg when she sits down, and those totally sexy heels. The moment I saw her, I lost my mind. It's frustrating, I can't control myself around her.""And apparently, neither can she. Alexander, there's no way around

Alexander’s POV She took the bag from my hand, completely confused. I seized the opportunity to grab a piece of cake and bring it to her mouth. She couldn't react; she closed her lips around the fork as I widened my smile. I put another piece of cake in my mouth while watching her slowly chewed the piece I'd placed in hers, then opened the bag. She took out the box, placed it on her lap, and opened it. Her jaw dropped as she stared at that tiny strip of fabric in the box. I was having fun. When she looked at me, I put another piece of cake in her mouth, preventing her from saying anything. Her eyes grew even wider.I was thoroughly enjoying myself. I ate another piece of cake and watched as she took the panties out of the box, stood up, sat on the coffee table right in front of me, and began to put them on. I choked – was this crazy woman really going to put on the panties right in front of me? Man, this wasn't going to end well!With very delicate movements and in an absurdly sexy wa

I left Alexander's office with shaky legs. That jerk almost made me come again! He left me burning with desire, that coward. But this wouldn't end here. I needed to find a way to not let him affect me and prevented him from getting anywhere near my panties for the rest of his life. I needed to think of something that matched what he did, since I'd already crossed a dangerous line anyway. And then I would quit and go back to my old job.I was frustrated and furious. When Patrick came into my office, I was struggling with the file. He didn't dare say anything, just walked straight through and entered his friend's office.When Celeste came in and said she was going to step out quickly, I had an idea. And it was a devilish idea planted in my mind because it was wicked."Celeste, would you mind stopping by the bakery across the street and buying me a slice of chocolate cake? The one with milk chocolate shavings and cherries on top?""Of course not, Cat. I can get that for you. I'll be back

I coordinated with Rick about the confidential financial report meeting for the next day and confirmed with Marina via message if it worked for her. With that done, I continued with my other tasks.An hour later, I heard my boss's office door being yanked open. He leaned over me, placing a hand on each armrest of my chair, and with his face very close to mine and eyes blazing, spoke in a very serious tone with an even huskier voice:"Catherine, listen carefully. This will be resolved today, and I don't want to hear otherwise. Cancel any appointments you have because we're going to leave this office at the end of the day and sit down to discuss this situation like adults."He looked at me for a second, stood up, turned his back, and left, slamming his door again. I was completely dazed when Patrick came in looking confused."Catherine, do you know what happened to Alexander during the video conference?"I blinked a few times and looked at him before responding:"I have no idea, Patrick.

Patrick handed me a glass of water, which I took with trembling hands. It wasn't until Alexander ran his fingers across my face that I realized I was crying."Easy, Catherine. He has no power to hurt you. Don't be afraid, you won't lose your job because of that idiot." My boss spoke softly while rubbing my back to calm me down."That's right, Cat. Don't pay any attention to Johnson, he's a jerk. You're a strong woman, don't let him intimidate you," Patrick said, offering his support."Since when do you take the liberty of using nicknames with my assistant?""Since we became friends. And don't be a jerk of a boss yourself!"I laughed at their banter, and my boss stood up, holding my chin to make me look at him."Not a jerk, but maybe a bit of a scoundrel," he said with a wink and a smile. Why did this idiot have to be so handsome!"Oh my God, you two are avoiding the inevitable!" Patrick said with a grin. "But Cat, I was just telling your boss that I've made reservations for our dinner

I returned to my desk near the end of the workday. I finished up my daily tasks and heard Rick come in singing "Oh! Pretty Woman.""Rick, you'd make it big as a singer," I smiled at him."Maybe, maybe, but I like the vibe in this office. Celeste told me everything - I was on the third floor making copies. Are you okay?" he looked at me, waiting for an answer."Yes, I am. Thanks.""Well then, my friend, I'm heading out. My wife called, she got home early and said she has a surprise waiting for me. I love her surprises, I can't wait!""Look at you, lucky guy. Have a great night!""Thanks. I'll tell you what she was up to at lunch tomorrow. Oh, should we plan something for the weekend? I told her about you and she's excited to meet you.""That would be great! Can I bring my friend?""Of course you can. See you tomorrow, pretty woman!"I smiled at the nickname he gave me and then heard right behind me, close to my ear:"Ah, Miss Vergara, what am I going to do with you? My friend whistles a

I entered the house with my boss's last words echoing in my mind. He would keep teasing me. What did he really want from me? Today had been a roller coaster. Would things ever settle down in that office and become normal?I went to check on my son, who was already sleeping like an angel, clutching his teddy bear. I thought about asking Mel if we could spend Sunday at the park with him - that would be nice. I passed by my friend's room, who was also asleep, and grabbed the baby monitor.I took a shower to wash away all the day's stress, fell into bed, and drifted off to sleep thinking about my boss. I must be going crazy.I woke up and got my little one ready to drop him off at daycare before heading out. He always woke up in such a good mood, smiling at me and chattering about how much he loved his school. While I was getting him dressed, he told me a thousand things about everything he was discovering. I smiled like a fool - it was so wonderful to see my son growing up happy.I got my

Everyone arrived, and my boss told me to lock my office door and close his office door when I entered. We sat on the sofas, and Alexander began."Here's the thing - you four are the only people I trust right now, so this meeting's topic is confidential, and no one else should know about it. Six months ago, I noticed some small inconsistencies between the financial reports, accounting, and commercial reports. So Patrick and I started looking more carefully. With the last financial report, we were certain something was wrong when we cross-referenced the data. I think someone is stealing from the company."I felt uneasy; this was very serious. I looked at Rick, who was as focused as I was. Then Patrick spoke:"Yeah, folks, but it's not just money being diverted - they're diverting other resources too. Plus, some clients are reducing their business frequency with us, and some have simply terminated their contracts.""Then guys, this is even more serious, because if the company is under dif

"Hey Mel, Henry called me. Do you know what for?" I asked my friend when I entered her office at the end of the day."I don't know, Cat. I didn't even know he called you. I'll let him know you're here." Melissa got up and went into the boss's office, then came back and gestured for me to go in."Catherine!" Henry greeted me with a huge smile. "First, let me say how happy I am that you and my friend have finally reconciled.""Thanks, Henry. I hope your friend doesn't mess things up with me again." I said with a smile."If he does, you know I'm here to help you kick his butt." Henry said firmly."Oh, right! Just like you did this time, spying on us and telling him everything." Melissa mocked him."Oh, Mel, I can't be too hard on him, he's my friend," Henry said like a teenager, making us burst into laughter. "But you can always count on me, Catherine.""Thanks, Henry, it's good to know that." I was sincere because Henry had really helped me a lot by giving me a job and supporting me when
Irresistible Boss: Succumbing to Your Touch Chapter 99
Alexander’s POVI dropped Catherine off at Lynx World and headed to my company. We had a wonderful weekend. Her parents were great people and welcomed me so warmly that I felt like part of the family. That meant a lot to me. Sure, we had that unpleasant incident with her ex, and her cousin was just jealous. But overall, our weekend was amazing.She came back to me, and that filled my heart almost to bursting with happiness. And Peter made everything even more perfect. If my parents were alive, they would have been charmed by Catherine and loved Peter as if he were truly their grandson.Thinking about my parents still caused me infinite pain and longing, especially after learning that the accident that killed them might have been intentional - that knowledge was like a knife to my chest. I needed to find out the truth. Alan was taking care of everything, and until he had information, I would have to wait and control my anxiety. This waiting was making me restless.When I arrived at my c

I woke up in the arms of the love of my life. There's no better feeling in the world than being held by the one you love. I was lying with my head resting on Alexander's chest, our legs intertwined and his arms around me. We were naked; Alexander had prevented me from putting on a nightgown, saying he wanted to feel my skin against his, and it truly was the best sensation in the world being pressed against him without any barriers."Good morning, my angel." I felt his kiss on my head and looked up at him smiling."How can you wake up looking so handsome?" I asked, smiling like a fool as he pulled me in for a soft kiss on my lips. "Good morning, my love!""Mmm! I love that sound. Say it again," Alexander said playfully."What? That you wake up handsome? You're the most handsome man I've ever seen." I said with a huge smile."I like hearing that too, but I asked you to repeat the other thing," he insisted."Good morning?" I teased."Are you teasing me, my angel?""Just a little! My love!

I waited for the guys at the gate and got into the car before Alexander could get out to help me."What's wrong, angel?" Alexander asked after Fred drove off."My mother's sister made an unpleasant appearance. But I'll tell you later, I don't want to stress about it now. Good morning to you both." I forced a smile.Peter chatted the entire way, even telling Alexander how he stuck his tongue out at the "witch," which made everyone laugh.At Melissa's house, we were warmly welcomed. Her parents were crazy about Peter and kept insisting they wanted another grandchild, but Melissa wasn't interested in that yet.After lunch, Mr. Larson called Alexander and Fred to his office to discuss business. Melissa and I did the same thing with her mother that we did with mine, filling her in on all the details of our life in Paradise Port.When we said goodbye, Melissa left home with her suitcase ready since our flight was that evening. We were taking Peter for ice cream before going to my house to ge

After they left, I put my son to bed and went back to the living room to chat with my parents."Why didn't you tell us you had problems there, honey?" my father asked right away."Because I didn't want to worry you, and because I have a friend who's my guardian angel who helped me find another job just as good," I answered honestly."Alexander said you're now working for his friend, but that you'll go back to working with him," my father said."I haven't decided yet. We'll see," I replied."Cat, we just want you to be happy. I like this young man, he has good intentions, he's serious and responsible. He came here and was honest, owned up to his mistakes. He seems like a good man, and the way you look at him, you're in love," my father hadn't missed a thing."Yes, Dad. He is a great man and I am in love," I confirmed."Then don't get hung up on silly things," my mother said. "Forgiveness is good for you, understand that. Pride won't get you anywhere. Don't forget that.""I won't forget,

We finished shopping and returned. Melissa helped me with the bags and we entered the house calling for my parents. We were putting the bags on the counter when Peter came running out and I heard him shout:"Alexander! You came!""Of course I came, little buddy, I was missing you so much!" I heard Alexander's voice and my knees went weak.When I turned around, the two were in a tight hug, my mom with a huge smile, my dad with a surprised look, and Melissa standing open-mouthed watching Fred walk towards her."What does this mean, Fred?" She asked seriously without hugging her boyfriend."We couldn't stand being away from our girls. And especially from Peter." Fred answered naturally."But I didn't tell you where I was going?" Melissa was angry with her boyfriend."You and Catherine going away for the weekend together? There's only one place in the world where you two would go, Mel!" Fred said smugly.I couldn't speak. I was too shocked. My parents invited everyone to sit around the tab
Irresistible Boss: Succumbing to Your Touch Chapter 94
The next morning, we woke up early. The aroma of coffee my mom was brewing in the kitchen filled every room in the house. Peter was euphoric, and my dad took him to the small barn to milk the cow. When they returned, my son had a tiny milk mustache and a blue enamel mug in his hand.We sat down and had breakfast while listening to the birds singing. The house was very spacious and comfortable. It had huge windows, and the fresh morning air flowed through them along with the sunlight.We went out for a walk, and the property was a good size. It was enough for a diverse orchard, a vegetable garden with all kinds of produce and greens, a barn with one cow, a pigpen with two pigs, and a chicken coop with many hens. Peter had fun collecting eggs with my mom.In front of the house, there was a garden full of colorful flowers and a small pond where a family of ducks was playing in the water. The house was flanked by a colonial-style porch, with hammocks hanging in each corner and wooden bench

On Friday, Melissa, Peter, and I caught a flight to Bellwood. When we arrived, Melissa's family driver was already waiting for us and drove me to my parents' farm, where they were expecting us. I said goodbye to my friend, and we agreed that she would come to see us the next day."Sweetie!" My mother came running to hug me, already in tears."Mom, I missed you so much!""And where's grandma's baby? Come here, my little darling!" My mother took Peter from my arms, and I took the opportunity to hug my father."My daughter, it's so wonderful to have you both home!""Thanks, Dad. It's really good to be here.""Let's go inside, it's already dark. Tomorrow you can explore the farm." My father was clearly excited about the farm.We went inside, and my mother already had dinner on the table. We sat down and had the meal together. How I missed being with them. Peter fell asleep in grandma's arms, who put him to bed and then joined my father and me in the living room."So, Catherine, how's life
Irresistible Boss: Succumbing to Your Touch Chapter 92
Another week started and flew by. Alexander really didn't keep his distance - he kept sending messages, flowers, and afternoon snacks. What changed was that he called me every night and we'd chat for a while. He told me that after everything Mrs. Margaret revealed, the audit was moving faster, and they were working for a few hours every night at Patrick's house. But he hadn't told me what Mrs. Margaret said, only that she knew a lot but never thought it was important.Melissa established Tuesday as girls' night, so we went to the Social Club again and had dinner there. We always had plenty to talk about, and fun was guaranteed with that group. Samantha had started working with Alexander and was really enjoying the job, although she couldn't stand Celeste, so she had lots to tell us."Seriously, Cat, it's written 'lying, fake, gossiping troublemaker' on Celeste's forehead - how did you not see it?" Samantha asked."Cat always sees the best in people, Sam. I got tired of warning her abou
