Instead of driving back to her apartment, where she knew Ross might be waiting, she stopped at a park just two blocks from where she lived. She was going to have to tell him her real feelings now; she knew in her heart that she had already accepted Mason’s proposal.

There was no way she could say no to him. She didn’t have the guts.

At this hour of the morning, the small park wasn’t usually packed. Children, nannies, and little preschoolers are the majority of those present. She had tucked the contract into her bag and gripped it to her side as she walked to an empty bench farthest from the playground, where she could be sure of some solitude.

Mason’s imperious demand that she comes work for him resurfaced in her mind. She could as well live off the men in her life for as long as she wanted, but with the money Chris had put into her schooling, she needed to figure out her next step and also to make herself feel better about the fact that she wasn’t wholly reliant on Chris and Ross.

    She arrived at her apartment precisely 5 minutes after leaving the park. She let herself in, closing the door behind her.She stood alone, leaning against the door, her heart thumping wildly, the heat between her legs aching as she remembered the day's events. She had had a crazy day. She took off her shoes and walked from the sitting area and into the bedroom, lying on the bed in a jump. She was still going over everything in her head when she heard a knock on her door.It had to be Ross, she reasoned. He came a bit early, but that just made everything faster. She'd tell him today without a doubt.“I thought you would not be coming until 6. You finished work early?” She said as she opened the door to meet an angry Mason. She stumbled as she attempted to move backward nearly sprawled on the floor. Mason lunged forward and caught her before she could fall. His hands remained firmly wrapped around her arms even after she'd steadied herself. Her cheeks flamed with embarrassment, and she

    Ross poured them a glass of wine and slid it across the bar to her as he listened to her narrate her lie. Lisa stirred the spaghetti sauce and gave the noodles a quick poke.“Well, I agree with him there. You didn’t go to grad school for nothing,” he said dryly. “But a personal assistant? I think there is more than meets the eye to this.” She remained silent, not rising to that particular bait.“So, you have decided to do it, right?” Lisa sighed.“I haven’t decided anything for certain yet. I have until Monday to make my decision.”Ross shrugged. “But if you ask me. He’s rich, good-looking, and single. He has no doubts and just wants you. You don’t even need a job or money.”“Money isn’t everything, you know.”“Said by someone who is indulged by her older brother, who also happens to have too much money to know what to do with.”Lisa couldn’t deny that Chris did a lot for her. He’d purchased this apartment for her, and she didn’t need a roommate, except whenever Amber needed the sleep

    Lisa stood in the doorway of Mason’s office on Monday morning, staring at him while standing outside, his dark blue eyes and exquisite figure beneath his well-tailored suit, which she was sure he was ripped in all the right places.She was torn between wanting to tease him and not wanting to, and she was still to make her decision, but she figured it wasn’t a good idea to provoke him; the last thing she wanted to do was upset him.“I’m here,” she said gruffly.He pulled her toward the room’s sitting area just opposite his desk.“Would you like something to drink?” he asked.She shook her head. “I’m fine.”He helped her down on the small leather couch and then sat beside her, taking her hands into his.“Listen to me Lisa, I do not want you to be nervous around me. I gave you a very detailed and precise outline of what our relationship will be like to avoid any confusion. I want you to be free and not feel frightened or intimidated.”She stared back at him, looking straight into his eye

    “If we do this thing…Chris can never know. I mean, if he ever found out he’d never accept it. I’m sure you must have given this a thought, Mason. He would never understand. To him I’m still his baby sister, someone he’s hugely overprotective of, I cannot even imagine his reaction if he were to find out about us in the kind of relationship you’re proposing.”“I had no intention of him knowing the private details of our affair,” Mason said calmly. “All he needs to know is that you’re working for me. I am very discreet, and I certainly have no desire for my private life to be blasted all over the media as it was when Sarah and I broke up.”“He won’t take it very well,” she murmured. “And I don’t want to lie to him.”“You’ll only lie by omission. And if we’re discreet, the only speculation will be whether we’re having an affair. What about Rob?”“Rob?”“Yeah, your boyfriend.”“You mean Ross, well I’ll handle that. We’ve been together a while. I can’t just end things out of the blue.”“And

    Mason held the contract in his hand and stared at the front page, speechless as the reality of his new connection with Lisa dawned on him.Reflecting on how successfully he managed his approach, he considered the exact path he wanted to take with Lisa.He just had one method of doing things. He was as straightforward and clear in his interactions as he was in his career. Even in a relationship, there was no room for feeling.As a result, he was still unsure of what aspect of himself he would show Lisa and whether or not she would embrace him. Whatever aspect he chose to display, he had to do so with grace and in such a way that he didn’t absolutely overwhelm her and scare her away before he even entered the room.He chose women who were aware of the situation. They knew what was required of them and what they may anticipate in return. Lisa was Chris’s baby sister. Beyond that, she’d been a girl he’d watched grow up. Hell, he’d attended her high school graduation. She had a unique pers

    Lisa sat in her living room after doing her morning chores, happy she’d been given the day off following her time in human resources and the hospital the day before.At the very least, she’d have one day to think about the arrangement she’d just agreed to. It both enthralled and terrified her to death. Mason was just what she was looking for. The work was merely a means of getting him.She wasn’t naive — or dumb — enough to think their relationship would last any longer than his others. While she didn’t know the specifics of his previous relationships, she’d heard from Chris that Mason’s maximum relationship length was one year, and three months were more common than not.On the other hand, her education would not be wasted because she was too timid to start something. The part of her that was apprehensive about entering the corporate world. Working for Mason is an excellent way to become initiated. At the very least, it would provide her with valuable experience and enhance her résum

    Lisa went for her dress next, pulling the shoulders down and allowing the fabric to glide down her body, revealing only her bra and underwear.Mason’s pupils dilated. His looks turned savage as a result of his raw hunger. Her spine shivered wildly. Her nipples tightened as they pressed against her bra’s soft fabric.The man was dangerous, and he hadn’t even touched her yet. But when he swept his glance down her body and back up, she felt like she was being caressed with fire.“Lisa, fuck, your body is amazing. I could watch you forever. Take your panties off.” She carefully pulled downward, hooking her thumbs into the lacy, thin waistline. It was instinctive for her to want to cover herself, to protect what little modesty she had left, but she pushed herself to let the remnant of fabric fall to the floor.With the toe of her shoe, she slid the panties aside. Then she moved her hair back, putting it over one shoulder so she could reach the bra clasp. When she unhooked it, the cups loos

    “Yes,” she whispered, her body so taut, so close to the edge that it was all she could do to breathe. Her pulse accelerated, nearly exploding, tripping erratically at the sexy, badass look on his face.He pounded into her again, shaking her body with the force of his re-entry. She closed her eyes, clamping her teeth together to call back the cry that threatened to burst free.“Eyes,” he snapped. “On me, Lisa. Always on me. You don’t come with your eyes closed. I want to see everything you have when I’m inside you. You don’t ever shut me out.” Her eyes flew open, finding him instantly, her breath exploding in a violent rush. He withdrew and then surged forward again, his hands tightening on her ass.She’d wear his fingerprints for sure. He held her, spread her even wider as he hammered into her. She couldn’t last. It wouldn’t last.“Please. Don’t stop Mason.” And it was begging. If he stopped now, she’d die. Her hands went to his wrists, where his hands covered her breasts. She let the

    “Mason?” Lisa muttered in a whisper. “W..what is going on here?” She asked, looking around fearfully. “Where are Chris and my friends?“We are here.” They chorused, stepping out into the light from their hiding place.“What is all this?” She asked, breathing heavily. “Did you all know about this?”Mason swallowed, shifting on his knee. “Baby, I know you are confused and probably angry right now, but I promise it was all my doing. I made them join hands with me. I am sorry.” He held her gaze.“Mason. This is... I wasn’t expecting this.”“I know. And I know messed up, and I feel really dumb about it. I should never have treated you the way I did. You're absolutely right. You deserve someone who will always fight for you, and I want to be that person, if you'll give me another chance.She didn't know what to say or how to answer. Tears filled her eyes, making them feel hot, and she was afraid they might spill over.“I love you a lot,” he continued very strongly. “I love you so much that

    “Have I ever told you how jealous I am of you?” Desire asked Lisa as they stepped out of the shop closing for the day.“What do you mean?” She asked.Desire pointed at Mason who was standing by the car with a flower in hand. “There. You went from Jaylen to the utmost breathtaking man who doesn’t mind withstanding the pain of nature just to see you. How do you do that?”Lisa rolled her eyes playfully. “Don’t be silly. I will see you tomorrow. Bye!” She waved at her.Mason raised his body slightly and stretched out the flower to her. Lisa collected it gingerly. She had thought he would stop coming after she ignored him to go with Jaylen. Also, none of her friends were willing to tell her what ensued between them and Mason when he brought the flowers over.He has been trying really hard to make her see him by indulging in little gestures. Lisa wasn’t certain about the next step to take with him yet. There are still many doubts about what he intends to offer her. The love is evident, but

    Mason shifted backwards wondering what the ladies would do to him. Amber is the only one he is familiar with.“Is everything okay ladies? Is there a problem?” He asked.“There might be after we have this discussion,” Amber replied. “These are also Lisa’s friends and I doubt you knew that. Meet Trina, Jennifer and Jade. Guys, this is Mason.”“Nice to meet you.” He said waving at them.“He does look breathtaking.” Jennifer murmured unable to hide her delight.“Smells nice too.” Trina added.“He is right in front of us. Can we behave?” Amber rebuked.“Come and have a sit.” Jade said to Mason. “When Lisa said you were coming, we thought it would give us a good chance to talk to you. So, you have nothing to worry about. We just want to have a conversation as adults.”Mason nodded cautiously sitting on the couch. Just in case he would need to bolt. Women aren’t nice when they choose to gang up against a person. He would hate to be their victim.“Will you like something to drink?” Jennifer a

    “Lisa!” Her friends screamed as they hugged her tightly.Lisa laughed heartily at the sight of her friends. It felt like forever since she had last seen them.Just as the girls had promised they came down to the valley to spend some time with her. Each one taking a leave of absence from their workplace.“I am so happy to see you. You look well.” Trina said, caressing Lisa’s cheeks. “Must be the works of a certain mister.” She winked, causing the others to laugh along.Amber held onto her hand like she feared she would disappear. “I have missed seeing your face. Please, Lisa, never leave without prior notice ever again. Nothing feels the same without you around.”“That is so true.” Jennifer and Jade chorused.“I miss you all so much.” Lisa cooed as she lunged at them again. “Come on in you all. I have a lot to tell you.”The girls seemed eager to hear what Lisa had to say. But she took her time instead, served them drinks and allowed them to settle before dropping the bombshell.“Mason

    Lisa’s first instinct at the sight of Mason was to slam the door in his face, but her hand slid off the door instead and she stumbled backward in utmost shock.“W…what are you doing here? How did you get here?” She stuttered.Mason took two cautious steps into the house to see if she would yell at him to go back. When she didn’t utter a word, he invited himself in and shut the door.“Lisa, listen, I am sorry if my being here is pissing you off, but I haven't been able to do anything without you. I know…..”His words didn’t get to leave his lips as Lisa jumped at him kissing him aggressively. Mason lost all focus and wrapped his arms around her tightly, returning the energy. They charged at each other like their entire life depended on it. He ripped off the dress she had on and in less than a second their clothes were scattered around the room.“Baby…..” Mason called out panting.“Don’t say anything.” She let out a shaky voice. Her pupils dilated with lust.He harkened to her words and

    “What the hell do you think you are doing here?” Chris questioned, surprised to see Mason standing casually next to his car in front of the restaurant he had come to have lunch with his business partners.Mason held up a tight smile. “I…I was just passing by and caught a glimpse of your car.”“Cut out the bullshit and own up to what you have done.”He huffed. “Fine, I had you followed from the office. You didn’t respond to my calls.”Chris frowned in displeasure. “What is all of this about, Mason? Do I have to get a restraining order for you? You have become more of a pest with each passing day. My answer still remains the same. Stop being a nuisance for goodness sake.”His words pelted Mason like a burning pebble, but he didn’t let that deter him.“You know what I am asking of you won’t cost you anything, Chris. Why won’t you give it to me?” Mason asked.He looked frustrated. “Why are you so adamant? Why does everything have to always go your way, Mason? Lisa is no doubt clear that s

    Jaylen blinked in confusion at Lisa’s reaction. He can’t seem to fathom the very reason she chose to go violent.“W…what did I do?” He stuttered.Lisa growled like a wounded animal. “You have done everything wrong. Don’t you dare ask me such dumb questions again. I am not the kind of person you will get just because your ego can’t take a rejection. Never ever!” She screeched. “Never cross my path again!”Saying her piece, she hastened her steps flagging down a cab to take her home. Lisa slammed the door shut as soon as she got into the house, almost like she feared Jaylen would come after her for putting her hands on him.Her eyes watered as she slipped to the floor feeling her entire body quiver. His words resounded in her ears like Mason’s. If she continues this way, she would be doomed for life. Nobody wants to hang around a bitter person like herself. At the same time, she knew men like Jaylen well enough to know that they think too highly of themselves and believe it is okay to l
