The pair drove in silence, and soon they were passing the house they were buying in the dim light of day. It was glowing there in the trees like a beacon that they would call home by the end of the week. He smiled as she sighed and pressed her face to the glass to look at it more as they drove past it. It was going to be their home.

“Family dinner will be easy to get to.” He said with a chuckle.

“For you.” She said with a laugh. “My family won’t be coming to dinner or us going over there too often.”

“And why is that?” he asked.

“Well, my family is slightly disconnected. The main part is I don’t want them thinking because I am with you, that means they can start asking you for things.” Paige said with a sigh.

“And that means?” he asked.

“Though I love my siblings very much, they have the worst ability to manage things and often find themsel

I’m little confused on Missy and dad’s relationship. Do they still love each other or are they married on paper?

    “Excuse me?” Paige asked as she looked at the older woman who was smiling at her. Paige was sure that she had heard the older woman wrong. Everything in her told her that she did. There was no way this woman just said that to her, not to Milo.“I had to charge you something, but a private sale is much easier to handle,” Missy said as she put the dollar in her pocket. “You see, the house is mine to do with as I please. I wanted a family to move in. I offered the house first to my children, but they all have the ones they wanted. I had no idea Milo was looking for one, or I would have found a way to offer it to him as well. I decided though to sell it to you, my dear. A long-standing tradition in my family is to make sure the women have something to hold on too not the men. My mother gave me the house when I got married though she still lived in it for some time. She wanted to make sure that I had something that I could

    Milo and Paige drove up the street to the house that stood there in the trees. She looked at it and knew this was hers. It was the most surreal feeling in the world to her knowing everything that happened in the past two days. She began to laugh. There was no stopping the laughter either.“What?” Milo asked as he looked at her as she got out of the car and looked at everything around her. This place was going to be their place together. A part of who they were, and it would allow them to grow together as well.“This.” She said as she looked at him. “All of this happened to me because I had no clothes to wear to work yesterday.”“Well, not really.” He said, chuckling. He had often thought the moment she walked into his office, everything in his life would change. He had a plan right from the start. Simple steps that would allow him to reach this goal with her. Everything went to hell as soon as the but

    A year had filled the castle house with many different things as Milo drove up to it from his long day at the office. His brothers with Maryanne’s help had pushed for him to take his rightful place in the company as a VP by their side. He had enjoyed getting to know them and their families over the past year. His father had also begun to acknowledge him for what and who he was as well along with Missy. However, coming home to Paige was the best part of every day.She had stopped working a few months before. She had been having some issues with getting around easily. Missy had been the one who finally said enough was enough and basically made her leave her position at the company. She had a new job now that was much more important than being his assistant.

  • The Assistant   Prologue

    Paige was at work trying to figure out what exactly to do about her situation. She was almost daydreaming as she sat at her cubicle waiting to hand over the things she had prepared for the bosses she worked for. A shared assistant that was one of the best she was in high demand and found that her job now included a few extra people that she was not supposed to work for.She knew though that she had a good reputation for working. Though she had heard a few rumors about how she moved up the companies ladders quickly. None of them were good. She had ignored them for the most part. She had no desire to give into the demands of the bosses nor would she back down with her other assistants. They had things to do for their bosses.Giving in to those types of things was not like her. She was there to work and get the job done. She would buy their presents for their wives and girlfriends. She would type everything up. She would answer calls and schedu

    Paige had packed up everything that was hers at the desk and then she decided to call it a day. She had finished everything that she had too and new this weekend she would be nothing but a blah of nerves. Though she had changed jobs a few times she knew that this was going to be something new.She tried not to think about it but it was all she could think of until she went to sleep. Nothing was right anymore and she knew it. No one asked for her by name. No one requested her even though she was one of the best in the company. She tried to figure out who this new boss could possibly be. She had no clue. She didn’t even have an idea of what division he could be.As she fell asleep the thoughts took over and invaded her dreams. She didn’t sleep well and decided to put off doing the few things that she knew she had to do. The laundry for one was one of those things that she didn’t want to do. She knew that when she did do it she would have t

    Paige had put off the things she needed to do. She knew that everything was going to be fine the next day but she had to do her laundry. That was her goal for the day even though again she didn’t want to carve out the time to do it and sit there.She bundled her things up and walked to the basement of the building. The old light flickering in the distance always made her feel slightly uneasy but she knew she had too.She then placed everything right in the washer knowing that she should do two loads but there was no way she was feeding this machine which happened to be the only one that would actually work most of the time, that many quarters. She opened the lids and then placed everything where it needed to be. Then closed it and shoved the quarters int eh slots to start the machine. It would be about forty minutes and she had this done to a science. The machine was locked for the moment. No one could open it.She walked back upstairs to her

    Paige stood in front of the mirror and knew this was not going to work out well. The dryer had completely ruined her outfit, and she was left with one white blouse that one could easily see-through and a short pencil shirt that she would have to be careful of doing anything still left in her closet. She didn’t even have a clean bra to wear, which just added to her dilemma. So her already large chest was going to be bouncing around every which way but that with the combo of the shirt, someone could easily see her dusky colored nipples. This was not the way to start off her job with the new boss. She was about ready to cry when she remembered a blazer that she had in the back of the closet. That would help some of her problems.She started out the door when she turned locked her door and saw one of her neighbors. The creepy one who always stared. She wondered to herself if she was making an impression that she was strong-minded or

    “What were you talking about that you picked me for this job?” she asked when she could finally catch her breath and have a coherent thought again. She had spent years doing this job with no one ever looking at her the way that he just had though her rise through the ranks had garnered some comments like, “She had spent a lot of time on her knees.” Or “She is better on her back then in the chair.” She had ignored them, but now she was wondering if her frustration and him being him led her to do the entirely wrong thing. This was the man who was supposed to enforce the rules about certain interactions and fraternization.“Paige, I have been watching everyone. That is my job. Though some of the other assistants have found ways to get around the company’s rules, you have not. Do you know how I got this position? It was quite easy, really. It was by reporting on everyone who works here and their ability t

    “I really don’t know how I should feel about this,” Milo said out of the blue as he looked at his computer later in the day. Paige was in the room, but she wasn’t working with him at the moment. She was keeping herself busy but also keeping an eye on him. He had quite the day already.“You should be happy but yet still a little leery of everything.” She said as she looked out the window. Her response was simple and straightforward. It was how she handled everything, including all of this, with him.“And you know this how?” he asked with a chuckle.“It is how I feel with everything that has happened to us.” She said as she turned around as she looked into his face as she spoke.“You don’t think that you should be happy?” he asked as he stood up and walked over to her. He looked down into her blue eyes and got lost for a moment in them. He was wondering

    Paige walked out and looked between the two men standing there. Milo was looking at his father, and she knew he had so many questions to ask. She went to her area and took a seat as she let them talk. As the two left the hallway to go into the office, they left the door open. They knew that she would stop anyone from coming in, and they could discuss whatever with the knowledge she would keep their secrets. She was after all a part of this.“I have one question,” Milo asked the old man as he sat down on the couch, and Milo went to one of the chairs near it. Milo didn’t really know how to handle this conversation. It wasn’t something he was ever going to ask in the first place. Now everything was hinged on the answer his father would give.“And that is?” the old man asked as he raised his eyebrow.“Did you want me to know them?” Milo asked.“Know who?” the old man

    When they walked into the office, Milo looked like he had gone through the wringer. Paige stopped when she walked in, and he closed the door. She didn’t see him turn the lock on the door, either. She just looked at his face. He was still completely shocked at what had just happened.Milo only wanted one thing at the moment, and that was her next to him. He pulled her closer and found the comfort of her tiny arms around him. He didn’t have to try to hold everything in though he still was in shock. He tipped her head up so he could see her eyes, and then he found her mouth with his own. There was a hunger there that neither of them could deny. The tension in him was surging through him. She could feel it as if it was a living being growing in him. She let him pull her along to the couch and then hiked her skirt up so she could straddle him. “I know you said, not here.” He whispered on his lips. “I just need

    “You think this is a good idea?” Paige asked after Justin left the office. She was looking around at the office and was beginning to think that maybe he was right, and she went a little overboard with the plants. She had to shake her head at herself and went back to helping him place things around the office. The plants did make the size of the room look smaller, though. As she placed a plant down, he would move one of the larger items like a tree or fern to the side where the windows were. In the process, he had made a small private sitting area with the trees around the small couch and two chairs. It was beginning to take shape that could be used.“If it is a bad idea, it is one I should make. I know more about them then they know about me. I think I should try to form something with them. I mean, they are my half-siblings though they know why I am here, existing. The sins of the mother and father shouldn’t be placed onto the child rega

    “Have you decided where to place most of these?” she asked.“Is it too late to say at our new house?” Milo asked with a laugh. “Sweetheart, I think there are a few too many things in here.”“No, there isn’t. I have seen offices much more than just packed with plants. It is the placement of them that will make the office look good.” Paige said as he looked at her.“Please, then by all means. I will lift the trees, and you can tell me where to put them.” He said as he rolled up his sleeves. “Remember, we don’t have real tasks to do for the rest of the week.”“So, are you asking me to take my time?” she asked.“You have permission to be less efficient then you normally are,” he said with a grin. “I am sure that it is going to take a while for you to get everything right.”“Don’t start.” She said
