KILLIANI had never sat in the conference room listening to a presentation with my dick hard as steel. My eyes remained fixed on Josie from the second she passed the threshold, and perhaps that was the first fucking mistake I had made. I currently pictured her naked. No. Scratch that. I would have left those black stilettos on her, but I would have surely gotten rid of the rest of the clothing.I observed all her slightest movements, her gestures, the way she smiled at the board members, and the way her gaze escaped whenever she met mine. She licked her lips fifteen times already. I started counting unconsciously, imagining those lips around my cock. I could see how nervous she was, but her sharp inhales had little to do with the presentation. I could see it in her eyes as she looked at me. She anticipated what would come when this meeting ended.I tried to pay attention to the carefully prepared slides, but my stubborn eyes preferred to look at her rather than the boring data. This w
JOSIEThe members of the board and independent specialists were slowly walking out of the conference room. Some of them stopped to congratulate us. A few walked to Killian, expressing how disappointed they were with his decision.I was somewhere between acknowledging what was happening and wondering if I was dreaming. I had faith in that project, and I knew my team had done their best to turn my vision into reality, but I was also aware that not everyone would share my enthusiasm. Today, my team and I had made ourselves quite a few new enemies…“I'm looking forward to downloading your app.” Tony grinned, shaking my hand. “Killian would have been a fool if he'd voted otherwise.”I smiled at him and nodded. “Thank you… and thank you for your vote.”“You're so very welcome!” He spread his arms, inching closer to hug me, but Killian grabbed him by the shoulder and pulled him away.“I don't believe I've given you permission to touch my girlfriend.” He glared at his friend.My brows rose. “W
I began to believe that Killian was the devil incarnate. I also considered regularly visiting a gym because my weak body was no match for his nearly supernatural stamina. He was quite true to his words. I had lost count of how many times I had screamed out his name. Fiend.He had to hold me so I wouldn't fall in the shower cabin as he gently soaped my sore body. It was one of the downsides of having sex in his office: no bathtub. Then again, if he'd had a bathtub in his office bathroom, we would have most likely stayed in the company building throughout the weekend.I didn't dare look into Hugo's eyes as he came to drive us to the penthouse around five o'clock in the morning. Using the CEO's elevator and heading straight to the underground parking lot helped us avoid all the nosy guards, but I had no doubt Hugo must have been well aware of what urgent matters made us stay in Killian's office until the early morning hours.Killian held my hand all the way to the penthouse. He kept trac
Kaiden Blair. Killian's cousin was likely to take over the consortium if Killian failed to please his father. I had little information about him, and I quickly figured I should call Killian to find out what kind of man he was. One thing was for certain: if Maxwell Blair valued him, that meant he was most likely cold and calculative and one hundred percent dangerous.I texted Killian as I was leaving the Blair Digital building, and then I tried calling him twice while I was on the way to the consortium. Unfortunately for me, he was too busy to answer or reply to my message. Shit. It looked like I was on my own…Hugo stopped the car in front of the consortium's headquarters' main entrance, and my heart began to pound. The building was at least twice the size of Blair Digital Entertainment, and the entire place belonged to the Blairs. I tilted my head to look up, trying to spot the top of the building, and my breath caught in my lungs. The sole view was quite intimidating.I entered the
After I returned to Blair Digital, I could barely focus on work. My instincts screamed, and I knew that meeting with Kaiden was a huge risk, but avoiding him would have been a significant gamble as well. The fact that Killian hadn't called me back only helped my anxieties grow, and by the time I returned to the penthouse, I was a bundle of nerves.I took a quick shower, reapplied my makeup, and managed to find a dress that didn't reveal too much skin. I kept my phone close to me in case Killian decided to call, but that didn't happen. He had surely chosen the worst possible moment to go MIA…My restlessness rose by the second. I sent Killian another text, this time informing him about my dinner with his cousin, but even this message remained unanswered. Groaning in frustration, I sat in front of my laptop and tried to find whatever I could about Kaiden Blair. I needed anything that could give me leverage. It was possible that Kaiden already had a full report on me lying on his desk, wh
A hysterical laugh bubbled in my throat, but I somehow managed to stop it before it burst out. I stared at Kaiden, stubbornly reading every line of his face.“Please, don't make jokes like that,” I muttered, shifting my attention to the wine glass.He let out a long sigh. “I made you feel uncomfortable... again.”I took a decent sip of wine before facing him. “It's not about making me feel uncomfortable, but we promised each other honesty, right? And yet, words like that make me wonder about your true intentions.”Surprise surfaced in Kaiden's expression. “And why is that? Is it so hard to believe I'm good at reading others? That it takes a few minutes for me to establish whether they're worth the effort?”My lips curved in an angry smirk. “Reading others? Does it mean you didn't ask someone to prepare a full report on me? Should I believe you didn't know a thing about me before I appeared in your office?”He laughed, loud and hard as if my words had triggered something inside him. He
KILLIANMy hands fisted and opened as I strode around my hotel room. Curses slipped through my throat every few steps I took. The fury raging inside me was almost impossible to contain, not without a punching bag at least…“Well played, Kaiden. Well played,” I strained through my teeth.I underestimated my cousin yet again. I had gotten rid of the spies he'd planted in Blair Digital Entertainment. I made sure he wouldn't sabotage the ongoing projects and the newest marketing campaigns. I had expected him to either do something to mess with Blair Digital's profits or go directly after me. He had chosen the third option: he'd gone after Josie.“Fuck!” I roared, punching the wall with my fist.She said that she was all right, but the truth was I'd left her almost unprotected. Hugo was no longer enough. I needed to install someone to watch over her from a distance and inform me immediately when things were about to go south.There was no coincidence in Kaiden's timing. He had chosen the m
JOSIEKillian's words still swirled in my head. I certainly found Kaiden's behavior disturbing, to call it the least, but hearing he might have done something to the women he had been dating made my stomach churn.I was glad that Killian's cousin hadn't tried to call or text me after our dinner had ended. That way I could fully focus on preparing the Happy App for the official launch, and those preparations were a real pain in the ass.With an army of people working on our project, one would assume everything should go smoothly, right? Wrong! We were told that the group of people sitting in the large open space on the opposite side of our office would consist of well-trained specialists, but this group did not exactly meet those standards…“Amateurs! Fucking amateurs!” Ashley roared as she strode through the corridor on the way to our office.I pinched the bridge of my nose, too tired of dealing with problems on my end. “What now?”She walked over to me, her hands fisting. “They messe
