I've never had an opportunity like this before - working for someone so talented and powerful. James is unlike any boss I've ever had. He can't. Domineering, ruthless. But he also has a protective side. He only showed me a part of him. But working together late at night pushes every boundary. I tried to keep things professional, but James made it very clear. He wants me. Not his secretary, but a very different position.

She asked with amusement, looking back at him with her grin getting wider. A groan softly broke through his lips, and his frame lowering towards her brought her chortle to an abrupt end, making her freeze in place when his face was a mere inch from hers.
