It was quiet upstairs, which wasn't unexpected because the entire rooms in the plaza being used for the launch had been rented for the night. It wasn't however difficult to know the rooms he wasn't in, since the lights were fully turned on...

All except two.

She stepped into the first, and immediately felt it in her that this was where he had stormed off. It wasn't completely dark, with the lights casting shadows through glass walls, and the doors which led to the balcony were thrown open as well.

She imagined him opening the door in a hurry and forgetting to shut it. Holding her gown with the tip of her fingers, she placed each foot in front of the other, stopping as soon as she caught sight of him staring out the beautiful view provided by the glass walls.

Fireworks were going off, mingling with the tall buildings to make the view so beautiful to stare at, yet his mind and heart were all in turmoil.

He felt her presence, but made no effort to turn around, his palms pushed into h

    Guilt, shame, embarrassment, fear...At the top of the list was lingering lust, because although they had just been busted, Andre had never looked more sexy with his hair dishevelled and his lips smudged with her lipstick. He didn't attempt to arrange anything anymore, but pulled out his handkerchief, dabbing at the corner of his lips.Clara felt like the lowest of all bitches standing before Ariadne who had just caught her with her boyfriend... Boyfriend? Were they really dating or just fucking?It didn't matter, because she had done the same thing she hated Dane for. She had become a partner in the crime.

    Staring at the pictures of the launch reminded him of the hot reckless session he'd had with his assistant, especially the one taken before others had arrived; he had been staring at her, absorbing her sheer feminity. He had been doing that of late; reminiscing over that night, even when he had been balls deep into a patron at the club.He had in fact got a private room with her because she was blonde and skinny, but she hadn't had those green eyes which were rare like pearls, nor had she possessed a mole on her face. Her skin had been white though, yet hadn't had that fragile quality which Clara Lynn exuded.And when she had moaned his name, back arched and breasts mashed against the glass wall, hers had been squeaky, lacking that sexiness which had almost driven him to fuck his assistant against the glass walls of the plaza, risking being captured by the reporters.He was hard again, but no longer frustratingly so. Kissing those lips and relishing the fe

  • Stripping the CEO   The Team Player

    This was crazy, she had gone malady.These things happened all the time?Yeah, they damn well did because she had certainly fucked her way all the way from high school to internship right?Clara regretted using the expression as soon as she was in her office and able to analyse her statement, wondering how well she had done sounding like a slut of the highest order.But on a second thought, she imagined it was better than letting him see for a second, how much she wished they hadn't been interrupted. The weekend had been marked with nights of sexual self-catering and flying solo, with memories and thoughts of Quinn Andre driving her to madness.At this point, she could say that she had successfully orgasmed more times in days than she had in months while dating Dane. The selfish bastard always got off on his own and then either claimed to be tired or spent a few minutes humping around without hitting any spot.It was weird, she h

  • Stripping the CEO   Martini

    Clara Lynn chose a dress which aimed at killing the one thing preventing him from bending her over the car; his self-control.Because one look at her in that short sequin dress whose shimmering silver shades flirted with her creamy skin and his no-employee policies were out of his window. He could only say that he had been lucky to spot her from his car, since they had arrived at the same time. Good thing he hadn't got of out his car yet, or watching those smooth legs which were always hidden in pants tempted him to reach into his tailored pants and start jerking off.Of course it was only a thought, he convinced himself, having never experienced that kind of tempting horniness since he became sexually active. He wasn't a teenager with raging hormones, and the fact that he had been tempted to wank off in the parking lot of a night club, seated at the back with his chauffeur in front sent a surge of worry within him.But Ms. Lynn had outdone herself. Her dress wa

    "I'm still surprised you would do that for me." Minutes after Bruce had left, Andre broke the silence between them. "I didn't do it for you, I did it for work." She was mad at him, he could tell from her tone and stiffened shoulders. She had feigned smiles when Bruce had been around, but her face had turned stony as soon as the younger man had left. The meeting had gone well, with Bruce fuming at having been deceived and apologising for letting his emotions intrude in his professional life. Andre had spoken with the CEO as well to confirm his acceptance, and so far, everything had gone fine. Except that Clara Lynn was still sulking. "Your professional spirit should be emulated indeed." His tone was sarcastic, and she didn't give him any reply, but grabbed her purse, pushing herself up from the lounge seat, where the meeting had

    "He's not a fucking brother of mine, we practically grew up together, that's all." Andre muttered in explanation as he pranced his office, the expansive space suddenly seeming smaller. The walls appeared to be closing in on him as well, and he felt suffocated.He yanked off his tie, throwing the navy blue material on the floors.It was the first time Clara was seeing him in that state, and she didn't know what to do or say. She had checked their stats and discovered that Tony Viscount had indeed completed the acquisition of 10% of the Quinn Corporation shares during the short period they had been busy going after the chief marketer. The sly fox had intentionally diverted their attention by feigning interest in the deal, only to make use of the opportunity to become a major shareholder.Andre still had 40% of the shares, but with the 10%, Tony could influence the major decisions made in the company.And her boss was beyond infuriated. He was enraged, simpl

  • Stripping the CEO   The Dinner Date

    "Great steak, isn't it?" Tony Viscount appreciated the food with a moan, nodding as he munched another piece of grilled meat.Clara dabbed the corners of her lip with a napkin, sipped at her wine and laid the glass on the table. "I followed you here because you said you had something important to tell me regarding the company." She started with a lie. It wasn't some loyalty to her work place that her driven her to accept Tony's invitation to dinner, but rather curiosity at the kind of person he was to plant his roots so deep in someone else's corporation when he had his.He lifted the corner of his lips, dipping another piece of meat in sauce. "I figured you're dedicated to your job, my little brother's lucky to have you."There was nothing suggestive in his tone, all he had done was speak with that raspy lazy voice and it had seemed as though worms were crawling on her body. She felt repelled; perhaps Andre's hatred for the man was beginning to rub off on

  • Stripping the CEO   A Dance with Flames

    Knowing he had dropped a bomb based on the silence on Andre's part which followed that ridiculous statement of his, Tony Viscount checked the time by his watch and spoke again."I wish I could prolong this... threesome or whatnot, but I have to run. Thanks for dinner, beautiful. Little brother, give me a call sometime." With a smile, Tony waved them goodbye and left their sight, his footsteps resounding in its wake, as loud as the legacy of confusion he had left behind.Clara spoke immediately, the need to clear the air being the only thing she could think of."I... It wasn't a date."Andre turned to her, his eyes expressionless shades of light grey. He scoffed, his mannerism exuding feigned nonchalance. "Dinner in a classy restaurant sounds like a date to me. You might want to tune it down, Ms. Lynn, dating our model and then a rival of the corporation won't read so well in your resume."She narrowed her eyes, appalled and baffled by h

    With each step Clara took towards the doors, she wished there wouldn't be any more surprises because her heart had taken too much of it. Yet as she stepped into the private room which catered to private performances for VIP members, she knew that her wish wouldn't be fulfilled and her heart might just find a way to keep from exploding. It was the room where she had reconciled Adonis with Andre, the foundation of the secret relationship she had started with her boss, boyfriend, and business partner. Including a hell of everything else he was to her. Yet everything from the arrangement to illumination wasn't the same, nor was the mood set by the soft music which blared through the speakers. '...'Cause all of me Loves all of you Love your curves and all your edges All your perfect imperfections...' John Legend's 'All of Me' had never sounded more emotional, that beautiful voice invoking to her mind memories of the man she had fallen in love with, who stood in the middl

  • Stripping the CEO   Epilogue: Déjà vu

    Fuck, her palms joined together of their volition even before she registered that she was clapping, a tear forming in her eyes as the lights went off again. She wasn't even aware of the masked female concierge who came into the room till she perceived an enchanting feminine cologne and darted her eyes towards the direction of the third party. She and the mood she had been cast into already occupied the seats of the first two parties. "Good evening, ma'am. I'll be serving you tonight." She bore a tray of glass and a bottle of wine in the other hand. "A glass please." Clara muttered, suddenly aware of how patched her throat had become with dryness. A cold flute was soon in her hand, and she perceived the unique aroma before bringing it to her lips. It tasted sweetly sinful and smelt like soft sensuality although the alcohol level was only a background complement. Clara's eyes immediately went to the wine bottle with amazement clouding them; it bore an Italian name she couldn't

  • Stripping the CEO   Epilogue: Masterpiece

    'I want your body on mine, forever.' A whisper, an imploration, a fucking vow. *** The theme tonight was ethereal. When the car halted in front of the X-Clusive and the chauffeur opened her side of the door, Clara Lynn stared at the tall building which now served as headquarters for another branch in Las Vegas as her Christian Louboutin rhinestone heels stepped on the floors. "Thanks, Will." She muttered to the chauffeur who replied in a similar polite fashion and shut the door, stepping into side with her. Some things like Andre's security following her around hadn't changed over the past one year, especially since their relationship had become public knowledge. But rather than the team who announced the presence of paranoia and made her friends uneasy at events, the slightly older man who doubled as a chauffeur escorted her to public functions. Once the gossip magazines had taken it upon themselves to get pictures of the hunky man opening doors for her, with captions which s

    "This is impressive, Clara. I must admit, it's better than I imagined. We're definitely onboard." Literally, they had been onshore for more than four hours because Mr. Holmes apparently included her in her vacation plans for the day, and though she had kept glancing at her watch for the first thirty minutes, Clara hadn't been able to deny that the man did know how to enjoy himself. An ex workaholic in the business world who had decided to take a break as he was fast approaching forty, Holmes was looking for lucrative businesses to invest in so he could enjoy his rest while making money as well. It was a solid plan, and for the first three hours, Clara listened with interest as he talked about his plans for the future and even found herself laughing when he made a joke about wishing to get married to a smart woman who could match his ideas. Like her. A statement which she took care to laugh unnecessarily loudly to, just before making her own joke about already being engaged.

  • Stripping the CEO   Onboard

    Andre Quinn was exhausted a few minutes after four in the evening when the hostess who served him another cup of herbal tea announced that they had arrived New York. It was the quickest journey he'd ever made to and fro his hometown, and that was a considerate setting of new record because he had never felt comfortable in the empty expansive mansion since his mother left. His mother. He was still coming to terms with how everything had unfolded, and was getting used to the idea of not mentally referring to Marie as 'the bitch' as he'd done for more than two decades. Even before he was legal enough to think the 'b' word. But giving himself a mental break over the past month had cleansed his spirits to a large extent. Apart from spending more time with his girlfriend and going on a drive with her sometimes in the evening, he had also mustered the courage to place a call to Thailand twice. And even when he'd heard Viscount's voice in the background on one of the occasions, he

  • Stripping the CEO   A Team

    Within twenty-four hours, Clara had succeeded in making headlines in office group chats which almost equated Andre Quinn's in international gossip magazines. Virtually every fucking person, including her subordinates turned to CCTV cameras and historians who documented her every move so as to analyse them later. And because her boyfriend thrived on being so damn generous it hurt, he rode the elevator down to her floor during lunch break and walked into her office amdist the obvious scrutinising eyes and fingers waiting for crumbs of information about them. He fed it to them; hot cake and ice cream to wagging tongues, and even offered them a dessert by staying in her office for thirty minutes after instructing her shocked assistant to hold her calls. And in the sweetness of his endless generosity, he gave them a ticket to their next meal when he finally came out of her office with his hand gently grazing her back, his eyes concentrated on hers as she told him about the meeting s

  • Stripping the CEO   Scandalous

    "Thanks, babe." *** Clara Lynn was a myriad of forest greenness. Vibrant and arrestingly charming in an army green suit whose skirt was designed to accommodate a slit that currently rode up to her thighs, she revealed an ample amount of eye-catching skin which glowed in creaminess beneath dark panty hose. Adorned with tiny jewelry of nephrite which complemented her skin as perfectly as the bright rays of the sun currently streaming through the open blinds, she had elegance and opulence revolving around her even before she began the meeting. And in addition to her silver blonde hair styled in tiny curls with waterfall braids to create a delicate look which complemented her glass make-up perfectly, she naturally drew attention to herself. However, irrespective of the awareness that she was captivating, Clara didn't make the mistake of being arrogant enough to think she owed it all to her physical appearance. Because over the last twenty-four hours, she had been placed at the cen

  • Stripping the CEO   Game Over

    Andre understood what he hadn't said, and stared at the brown envelope with emptiness in his eyes and heart. He... Just needed a rest, a vacation. Marie cleared her throat as Viscount checked the time by the wall clock. Interesting, only twenty-five minutes had passed and twenty-five years worth of anger had been poured out within that short duration of time. "I... I didn't come with Anthony today to mock you, I'm sorry that I'm by his side despite the enmity between you two. I... I will end it with him if our union affects you. You're the most important person to me, baby..." "Becky?" Tony seemed genuinely betrayed and stunned and sad at the same time. Andre didn't know how to feel about any of it. Too many things had happened and his mind could only absorb little at a time. He couldn't give them his blessing because it wasn't in his place and watching his mother with a man who had been like an older brother to him wasn't exactly a sight for sore eyes. She was at least eleven y

    "Dre..." Marie had started crying, quiet sobs spreading through the quiet room, her lean fingers pressed against her lips to stiffen the cries. But Andre didn't let that deter his continuation of that unpracticed speech. "Why don't you go ahead and pick the one you're the most beautiful in. Oh, you wouldn't know if you don't watch it. Should I play one for you...?" That was the point where Viscount's control snapped, and he stood with a force which made Clara's eyes dizzy for a second from watching him. "You fucking sleazy bastard! You are not in a position to cast judgement on her when you don't have a freaking idea what she's been through. Vengeance? Punishment? I should be the one casting it on you and your bastard of a dad for taking the company. My father fucking killed himself because of the way he was cast out!" "What? My father and I took the company? Remind me the number of times I contacted you after you started giving me the cold shoulder, asking what had gone wrong.
