“I will teach you whatever you want to learn.”
Oh God.Yes.No.Yes.She was terrified, thrilled.
“Hang on, Ms.Lane.”There was no smile on his face, nothing but cold, calculated intent.“Your life is about to get interesting.”
Chapter Four
“Are you going to invite me in?”Nathan asked after he’d parked near her condominium building on Caroline Street.
Since he’d first set eyes on her, he’d been captivated.
When Connor had called a couple of hours ago, Nathan had been speechless.So much so that his brother had checked to be sure they were still connected.
From the little he’d known about Kelsey, Nathan would never have suspected she had an interest in BDSM and he’d asked a dozen questions, enough to ascertain that it had been a female friend who had called and not a Dom or sub calling on her behalf.Connor had said he didn’t have any further information, and Nathan had been determined to discover the rest.
Only one thing was sure in his mind.If she was interested in learning about D/s, she would do it under his guidance.
He’d ended the call and searched her out, only to see that she’d left for the day.His fucking watch had shown that his heart rate was elevated.Nathan had told himself that wasn’t possible.But as he’d stared and focused on regulating his breathing, the number had decreased.
Because he’d skipped his usual morning workout, he’d decided to spend some time in the fitness center while he thought through the best way to approach her.
And the moment she’d walked into the cardio area, he’d known it.All his protective senses had gone on alert, and he’d seen her in a completely new light.
He’d noticed her surreptitious glances and the way she’d turned her head the moment he’d acknowledged them.When he’d walked past her after lifting weights, he’d made his decision.Talking to her outside work was more appropriate.And he’d been honest earlier.Once he’d made a decision, he acted on it.
He’d been waiting a couple of minutes when she’d exited the ladies’ dressing room.And he’d registered her reaction to seeing him.
The same attraction he felt had been reflected in her wide, hazel eyes, in the way she’d parted her lips and the way she’d paused.He’d known that getting her to go out with him might take a little persuasion, but he was determined.
Something hot had arced through him, searing him with possessiveness.
He turned off the engine and angled his body to see her better beneath the overhead streetlight.“Kelsey?”
“Uhm…” She looked at him and brought her chin up.“This is awkward.”
“Is it?”
“You don’t think so?”
“Tell me why you do.”
“Isn’t it obvious?You’re my boss.My job depends on pleasing you.”
“Would you like me to fire you?”
“What?”She threaded her purse strap through her fingers.“Will you be serious?”
“I am.If you working for me stops us having an honest discussion about this—”
“About what?”
“The attraction we both feel.”
“I…” She let out her breath.
“Deny it,” he told her.“Go ahead.But I’ll know if you’re lying.”
“Mr.Donovan—”
