It was a little after seven.
Sunlight crept through the slit in the curtains, warming my cheek. I shielded my eyes and winced at the pain gnawing into my skull. I probably shouldn’t have drunk that much knowing I had all-day meetings at Battle Industries. It was also Olivia’s first day of work.
With Olivia on top of me, her big tits falling out of a low-cut top, I squeezed her thick ass to see if I was dreaming.
Her palm crashed into my cheek.
So, this wasn’t a dream.
Fuck.
She sat up, straddling my thighs, and slapped my bare chest. “Were you having a sex dream about me?”
I rubbed the spot she hit and frowned. “Yes, but it doesn’t warrant violence.”
Olivia sighed. “I’m your assistant now. And as your assistant, waking you up is part of my duties. But this… No more sexy dreams about me. Not unless you’re going to stop playing games.”
She slid off me and pulled the covers over my half-naked body. I rarely slept in clothes, but Olivia lucked out. I was too drunk and tired to remove them before passing out. Although after seeing her naked last night, it would have only been fair to let her see me.
“I’ll call down to the kitchen for your breakfast. Do you want the usual?”
I nodded. “Sounds good.”
She nudged my arm and then hopped off the mattress. “Drake Battle, get your ass out of this bed before I drag you out of it.”
I rubbed at my tired eyes. “I’m awake, woman. Do I need to remind you who’s the boss?”
Olivia bent over me, her sweet scent, like cotton candy, filling my nostrils. I love how she smelled. And now that I knew how she tasted, I wanted more. Once would never be enough.
“You’re paying me to do a job.” Olivia put her hands on her hips and scowled. “So, quit dragging your feet and get ready for work?”
I loved being in control, but I loved it more when Olivia put me in my place. Her feistiness turned me on. Every bossy exchange left me wanting more.
Think with the right head, Battle.
I sat up and yawned, raising my arms above my head. “What’s on my schedule for today?”
“Tate wants to see you ASAP. He’s already at the office waiting for you. Then, you have a meeting with Senator Kane. After that, the CEO of Avanti Corp. And a follow-up call with that company in England. You know, the one that rhymes with yellow.”
I narrowed my eyes. “Bello Tech?”
She nodded. “Yeah, that one. I’m still getting used to your calendar. Give me a few days, and I’ll have it all memorized.”
“You’ve got this, Liv. I have total faith in you.”
As the owner of the largest weapons manufacturer in the world, my days were endless. I worked more than I slept. Heads of state, tech moguls, and criminal organizations wanted to meet with me. And with that kind of recognition came other unwanted attention.
Olivia opened my closet and then angled her body to look over her shoulder at me. “Do you want me to get your suit ready?”
I shook my head, laughing. “I’m a big boy. I don’t need you to dress me.”
A smile touched her pretty pink lips. “Whatever. Get your butt moving. My brother has important news. He got a call earlythis morning. He wouldn’t tell me anything. Just said it was life-changing and to get you to the office an hour earlier than scheduled.”
Olivia turned her back to me, flaunting her perfect ass. What made Olivia more beautiful was the fact that she was oblivious to her power. Men stared at her all the time. But she took their interest as pity. She worried so much about her weight that she couldn’t see past it.
I wanted to close the distance between us, drop to my knees in front of her, and taste every inch of her incredible body. That’s what I should have done last night. Instead, I fucked everything up by pulling away. By telling her our kiss was a mistake.
Every day with Olivia was a battle for me. I constantly struggled with wanting to bend her over my desk, especially when she wore tight, black skirts. Like the one she had on today.
