“Yes, Sir.”He’s right.
“Then I don’t see a problem.”He lowers onto his fancy leather chair, which puts him barely below me.As he sets a file in front of me, he says, “Would you like to look over your new job description while standing?”
Heart racing, I finally take a seat, but my brain feels like it’s scattered all over the room.
Chapter4
Hendrix
Kelsey is every bit as feisty as I expected.She was strong-willed and confident on the night I met her at her graduation party, and she has demonstrated that yet again both Saturday night and this morning.
I haven’t lied to her.I really did have Josephine choose a pile of candidates for me.And it is a fact that Kelsey is qualified.I’m neither surprised nor disappointed.
I have probably lost my mind in choosing her.That part is true.My sentiments match the shock on her face.I should have selected someone else.I can’t bring myself to do it, though.I hate thinking about her being one floor below me, working for other people.
Her back is ramrod straight as she sits perched on the front of the chair.At least she finally lowered her pretty ass to the seat.I wasn’t sure she ever would.It was difficult to keep from laughing as she faced off with me.That would have infuriated her.
I’m intrigued by Kelsey.More every fucking day.This woman is so much more than I knew.She’s strong and hardworking.Brilliant.Dedicated.
And she can turn that off and submit beautifully.
Granted, I haven’t proven that she can specifically submit tome.That remains to be seen.Perhaps she prefers to submit to a woman.I’ve only seen her with Claudia.I shouldn’t be thinking of dominating her.But I’m a fool.I can’t help myself.I should choose one or the other.I can’t have her both ways: in my office and on her knees.
That doesn’t even take into consideration my bed because that’s where I’dreallylike her.Under me.On top of me.Hands and knees.Folded in half.The list is long.I’m greedy.
I sit back in my chair and watch her as she reads through the paperwork.She’ll be getting a raise along with added responsibilities.
“Any questions?”I ask.
She lifts her gaze.“No, Sir.This is fine.”
“You’re okay with the occasional nights and weekends?Some travel?”
“Yes, Sir.”She has dropped some of the feistiness she came in with.Perhaps resigned herself to the fact that this is happening.I don’t miss the reverence every time she saysSir.She’s subtly submitting to me.She can’t say no because she wants this—professionallyandpersonally.
I may be overstepping and making assumptions, but Kelsey can’t hide that she’s interested in me.There’s a slight tremble to her hands.Her legs are squeezed together so tightly she’s getting a thigh and ab workout in the chair.
Keeping her a bit off-kilter will be my new mission because apparently I’m a sadistic fuck.Not the kind who wields a cane and draws blood, but the kind who dominates hard.
It’s been a damn long time since I’ve even entertained the idea of bringing a submissive under my wing.I’m not talking about the sort of woman who submits to me for thirty minutes during a scene at a club.I’m talking about someone who answers to me on a more permanent basis.
Often the women I scene with are rather meek.I’m drawn to the fact that Kelsey is anything but.She’s a challenge.Someone I can see at my side for the rest of my life.Someone who can run circles around me professionally and then kneel before me at the end of the day.
Is there a chance I’m not reading her correctly?Maybe.But I don’t think so.I want the woman who organized her own graduation party.The woman who greeted every guest with poise and grace.That’s the same woman who has worked her ass off downstairs for two months, proving to everyone who works here that she’s up to any challenge.
Kelsey is also the submissive I found naked at Edge on Saturday night, hand braced on a pegboard while she absorbed a pretty serious flogging from Mistress Claudia.My tongue was stuck in my throat from watching her.Her breasts… Fuck me.The way she held her legs open and kept her position.
She likes some pain.She endures it.Cravesit.And comes out on the other side nearly undaunted.It was a sight to behold.I want to be the man,the Dom, to hold her hair and tug her head back.I want to swat her amazing ass with my palm and every other implement in my armoire.But when I’m done, I want to reach between her legs and make her come so beautifully that my cock erupts in my jeans.
Kelsey sets the folder down and looks at me.“Do you have any personal expectations, like bringing you coffee and picking up your dry cleaning, Sir?”
“Fuck no.You have a business degree, Kelsey.You’re not running out for lunch or preparing my drinks.It’ll be spreadsheets and internet searches.Time-consuming tasks that require diligence.If we need coffee or lunch, Josephine will handle that.”I nod toward the door on the other side of this spacious room.“Your office is in there.You can access it from the hallway or from here.Sometimes we’ll leave the door open so we can communicate easily.If I’m on the phone and annoying you, you can shut it.”
“What ifI’mon the phone, annoyingyou?”she retorts.
I chuckle.“Touché.”
She sits taller.“I don’t think we should go to the club on the same nights.”
