All Chapters of Talk Dirty to Me: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

For once yoga was peaceful.What was different? Adam wasn't in class this morning. It was divine.I'm convinced that if I wore one of those fancy smart watches I'm sure my heart rate would peak whenever him or Noah were near. But right now I was enjoying the last few moments of Shavasinya before getting ready for the workday.***My office door, which I usually keep closed when I leave for the night, was ajar. Nothing seemed out of place and there wasn't anyone inside. But there was a large Starbucks coffee waiting for me. It was hot too, so it must have been fresh. No note either."You do know it's dangerous to accept drinks from strangers, right?" Adam leaned against my doorway in a sky blue large sweater, jeans, and a white t-shirt, holding his own cup of coffee from Starbucks. I know who to thank now, but that's never going to happen."I do, but I doubt anyone would roofie a coffee? Wouldn't they counteract one another?" I sat down sippi

Adam's POV"You invited her to the conference in Vegas? That's like dangling the apple of knowledge in Eve's face." I freaked when I realized Noah had used the business trip excuse to get Holly alone. "And you will be on that trip too, dumbass, so get your head out of the sand and try to get some ass." Noah snickered. "Dude. Seriously. What the fuck?""Calm down. This will be a great way to see who she likes more.""HOW?!""Think about it. It's Vegas. She gets drunk and she spills her dirty little DM secrets. Maybe she'll want to hook-up with one of us. Or maybe she winds up finding out who she's been talking to and actually picks one of us."I hated to admit Noah's correct but it was actually pretty fantastic. It would give us a clear winner. And this was a contest I was hell bent on winning. "Fucking-A, bro, you are one sly bastard." I put my hand out to shake his."That's ri

I was locking up my office when I saw Noah and his personal assistant, Jennifer, walking out as well. It took me a minute to register they were both looking at me at the end of the hallway. Quickly I closed my mouth and blinked. Noah's smirk told me I had been caught checking out my boss. I looked down at the floor while I walked towards them. He put his hand on Jennifer's shoulder and a surge of jealousy went through me. But as I caught up with them he was sending her off."You know, Jennifer, we can continue this tomorrow." He patted her shoulder."Yes, it can definitely wait. I need to run out of here anyways." She smiled at me and winked. We stood there until Jennifer was out of earshot, and when I finally did look up, his eyes were checking me out. "Now we are even.""I'm sorry, what?" I couldn't read his face. If I were a model I'd think he was looking at me like I was his next meal. I laughed nervously."I did

Noah showed up asking me for lunch but I politely declined lying to him about having the next stage of user experience, aka UX, testing. Honestly, I had the programmers start writing code and switching up the algorithm as I've gone along. It's simple A/B testing and I didn't want to get too into the weeds of the whole thing with him. Especially while I'm daydreaming about his brother.After my fourth cup of coffee, Jennifer said I needed to give the Keriug and my body a break for the rest of the day. She's always been super nice to me and even brought in candy at 3PM when my brain felt like mush. The sugar high was definitely needed to push me to 5PM but there was no way I was staying here any later."Holly?" I heard Jennifer say as she knocked on the door."Come on in, Jennifer. I have to thank you for your help today." I mused while she sat with her sweet smile."Aww, how kind of you to say that. Thank you. It was nothing really." 

My mom and sister drive me crazy but I need to connect with them before the holidays, which I know will be upon me way to quickly. Since I was going home for Christmas I asked Kate to visit me out here in Colorado Springs. I'd pay for the flight, I just needed some sort of connection with home.Hell, at this point I'd invite my mother to visit. I know her schedule is too packed to come visit one of her two daughters. Sometimes I wonder how I'm related to these women. I related mostly to my father. And it's this times like these that I miss him the most. Even though I'm sick of men at the moment. I bought Kate round-trip tickets from Newark Airport to Colorado for this upcoming weekend. I would officially only have two weeks left until my company vacation with the Talon brothers. She had to come see my house and meet Jennifer and Jill before the holidays. If not she might not ever see the place I've lived for the past six years. "Hey Kate! Look at you
