Baby For The Mountain Man

  Adding another finger inside of me, I fingered myself even faster, screaming when my pleasure skyrocketed. I was seconds away from a shattering orgasm.

  Breathing fast, I supported myself against the tiles and thrust two more times before I orgasmed hard.

  “Bryce!”

  I leaned my forehead against the tiles and closed my eyes when a powerful aftershock rushed through me, my legs convulsing violently.

  This had been amazing. With a huge smile on my face, I continued showering in even better mood.

  A couple of minutes later, though, all my pleasure dispersed and reality came back. I had to get serious. If I didn’t pay attention, this attraction could quickly become dangerous and affect my job performance.

  I couldn’t let myself act on these dirty thoughts. I was his assistant and nothing else, so I better start acting like one.

  I needed this job, so I couldn’t screw this up, and the best way to ensure him keeping me was to make sure I met his every need. In order to do that, I had to know more about him, so I wouldn’t make any mistake. If I managed to complete my duties successfully, he would definitely see my worth.

  Just like that, an amazing idea came to my mind—like always when I was in the shower. I could look him up on the internet and see what I could find out about him. That way I wouldn’t have to snoop around the hospital and bother him with my questions.

  I quickly dried off and put on my bathrobe, planning to research about him before I went to sleep. I went into my bedroom, turned on my computer, and took my notebook to make notes, excited more than I wanted to admit.

  I typed Bryce Evander in the search bar, which resulted in pages and pages of websites, news, and photos, and my anticipation rose.

  A website with his long biography and one of his interviews loaded, and I started reading. His background was rather impressive. He snatched his first job in a local hospital while still in college, and he received his MD from Harvard medical school. Since then, he worked in two prestigious hospitals, quickly climbing to the top, until he opened his own hospital, which was now one of two major hospitals in the city.

  He’d accomplished all of this and he was only thirty-four years old. Simply amazing.

  “I strive to do as well as possible,” I read aloud one of his answers in the interview. “There is nothing better than saving a life, and this is my main motivation.”

  He planned to expand his business, claiming he would open several hospitals by the end of the next decade.

  “Wow. He was just like me, huh? Eager to succeed.” It was like he was my kindred spirit.

  I scrolled down the page and found a part with the personal information. I held my breath as I read lines that confirmed he was single and had never been married, but then I reproached myself because I wasn’t supposed to care about that. Single or not, it didn’t change a single thing.

  “He’s just your boss, Chloe.”

  However, my curiosity won over my reason, and before I could regret it, I checked his Instagram. He hadn’t made his account private, which brought a grin to my face, followed by the thumping of my heart as I skimmed over his photos.

  There were several photos that were made with his colleagues or around the world, during some of his trips, but more often than not I found photos of him with various women. He was either hugging them or kissing them, and something that could only be described as jealousy stirred my insides. All of them were the exact type of women I had imagined him with, their appearance strikingly beautiful and glamorous. All that I was not.

  He was a billionaire playboy who obviously enjoyed his single life a little too much. There was no way he would ever settle down with someone like me. There was no way he would ever settle down, period.

  So that was another reason why I should give up on this fantasy and keep my feet on the ground. He was off-limits.

  It was easier said than done. As I scrolled down the pages and pages of information I could find, my interest doubled, and by the time I went to sleep, I couldn’t wait to see him again.

  Ignoring this attraction would prove to be more difficult than I’d thought.

  “I’m in big trouble.”

  Bryce

  I kept glancing at Chloe through the glass of my office, easily distracted from my work. From the moment she entered my office this morning, I was restless and couldn’t concentrate on my job at all.

  My body had reacted immediately to her—especially since she was wearing an outfit that made her stand out. Her black pencil skirt, red low-neck blouse, which revealed her sexy bosom, and high heels looked amazing on her, although I wouldn’t mind seeing her only in those high heels.

  She was definitely the hottest woman around here, and it was seriously affecting my work.

  She was also highly efficient. She’d already completed almost all the tasks for today, able to understand and follow all my instructions with strict attention to detail. Chloe was in stark contrast to my previous personal assistant, who had easily managed to mess up on several occasions—quitting her job on the spur of the moment being her last fuck-up.

  Highly impressed with Chloe, I’d come up with an idea. She could prove to be of high value during the local hospital tour, so it would be good to take her with me on my little trip.

  “Come in,” I said.

  Chloe entered my office, and my eyes shamelessly assessed her body. Luckily, she chose to turn around to close the door in that moment, so she didn’t catch my once-over.

  “You asked to see me?”

  I leaned into my chair, thankful that my desk was hiding my instant erection from her. I’d definitely needed some action since I reacted like a teenager in puberty next to her. It was just too bad that she wasn’t available.

  I had actually been flirting with the idea of screwing her last night. I never condoned personal relationships in my hospital, drawing a strict line there. Even if some of my doctors or nurses hooked up with our coworkers, their private relationship stayed out of the hospital. I was adamant about it, so banging Chloe could lead us into catastrophe.

  Tell that to my cock.

  “Yes. Please sit down.”

  A whiff of her perfume reached my nostrils as she sat across from me, and I discerned vanilla and peach. She smelled amazing.

  Now that I had her this close, I could examine her pretty appearance better. She didn’t wear much makeup, but she didn’t need it. Her unblemished skin looked soft, and my fingers itched to travel down her silky neck and chest. Her blonde hair was made into a braid that fell over her right shoulder.

  “I mentioned to you that I’m looking to expand my business.” She nodded. “I’m currently searching for a hospital to purchase, and I think I found one.”

  “That’s good news.”

  “Yeah. It’s several hours away from here, near my hometown.”

  “Your hometown? Denver?”

  I raised my eyebrows, surprised that she knew this. “Yes. How do you know about Denver?”

  A faint blush covered her cheeks, her eyes downcast. “I googled a bit about you last night,” she said this quietly, her regretful face reminding me of a thief caught in the middle of his robbery. “I wanted to know you better so I’d be able to suit your every need. I’m sorry if that was invasive.”

  She had researched about me? Now, that was what I called devotion.

  My lips formed a smile. “No, not at all. I’m just surprised. I don’t remember having an assistant who paid attention to details to this extent. Thank you.”

  She returned my smile and tucked her hair behind her ear, clearly relieved to hear my approval and not my reproach. “It’s nothing.”

  I followed the curves of her pretty lips, imagining them on me for a moment. “Anyway, I need your help, so I want to tell you we’re going to look at that property together.”

  “We are?”

  “Yes. I hope that isn’t a problem, since this maybe comes as a late notice.”

 
“No, not at all. You can count on me. How long will we be gone?”

  “If the project goes well, I’m going to negotiate with the sellers right there, so we’ll stay there for at least a week.” I cocked my head to the side, gauging her reaction.

  For a few moments, we couldn’t look away from each other, and my breathing became slightly faster.

  She glanced away, ending the intense moment we had shared. Her fingers were still playing with her hair, and another dirty image popped into my mind.

  “We’ll be stopping into see my folks, if that’s okay with you. We’ll stay in a hotel, of course.”

  She nodded with a polite smile. “Sure. Anything sounds better than sitting here for a week alone.”

  My lips curled up. “Let’s see if you’ll think the same way when you meet my mother. She can be pushy sometimes, but she means well.”

  “I can’t wait.”

  “Great. So, you should pack right away because we’ll be leaving tomorrow morning.”

  “Alright. Then, can you tell me more about this project?”

  I took the folder with papers that Daniel had provided me with and passed it to her.

  “Open it. Inside you can find photos and more information about that hospital.”

  Our hands touched for the brief moment when she took the folder from me, and her lips parted to let a small gasp out. I met her gaze, surprised at how good that touch felt.

  I cleared my throat, concentrating on the matter at hand instead on my hard-on. “This hospital is at a good location, and it’s promising. Since its opening four years ago, its net revenue grew steadily, and each year shows an exponential growth of clients.”

  “That sounds terrific. So do you plan to expand it if you decide to acquire it?” she asked as she looked through the papers, and I used this opportunity to look at her.

  What was about her that attracted me so much? She didn’t look like the girls I used to date. I preferred redheads or brunettes, and I liked them tall. Chloe was the complete opposite, but there was something special about her, and I had a feeling that if I were to fuck her, it would be something to remember.

  As her boss, I was supposed to keep my dick in my pants, but it was getting harder and harder to resist her. We were going to be together for the whole week, and my mind reeled with the possibilities. There were so many things I could do to her...

  “Probably in a few years, yes,” I answered a bit huskily. “As you can see, it’s rather small and has limited capacity, but I can bring more doctors from the area and get the best contract with the insurance company.”

  She opened her mouth to say something, but my phone rang, interrupting her and my not-so-innocent flow of thoughts.

  “Hold on,” I told her and picked up the phone on my desk. “Yes?”

  “Dr. Evander, it’s Lucy. Mr. Stanley Brams has tachycardia and requires your immediate assistance. He’s in the room 308.”

  Stanley Brams was a financial investor in the hospital with a pacemaker, who was one of the few patients I still saw even though I owned the hospital.

  “I’ll be right there.” I ended the call and stood up, immediately switching to my doctor mode. “I have to go,” I told Chloe. “One of my patients needs me.”

  “Yes. Of course. I’ll be at my desk if you need me.”

  “Okay. See you later.”

  I threw on my white lab coat, noticing the awe on her face as her gaze followed me, and ran out of the door, even though I wanted to stay with her.

  I reached the room 308 in no time and started with the check up, noticing that Stanley looked better than I’d expected. Despite my advice, he was still a heavy smoker and had his cholesterol levels high above the limit, his weight almost as double as mine. I asked him to perform vagal maneuver, hoping to slow down his heartbeat before resorting to drugs.

  “You’re a life saver,” Stanley mumbled to me as his condition grew more stable, and I let myself relax.

  “And you keep putting yourself in danger, Stanley. I’ve told you many times to control your diet. I hope your wife can put some sense into you soon.”

  He responded with laughter, adding some of his half-baked jokes, but my mind had already wandered back to Chloe, unable to resist her control over my thoughts.

  I was still tense after our moments spent in my office, and I couldn’t keep resisting her, especially since I would have her alone for a week.

  My dick grew hard as I scribbled on my clipboard. I was glad to wear a coat, which hid it completely. There were so many things I could do to her gorgeous, little body, and I wanted to take my time with her. I would kiss every inch of her and make her scream my name. I would eat her out right before I thrust my cock into her hot pussy, and I would bang her until she couldn’t stand it anymore. I could easily imagine giving her all those mind-blowing orgasms as I fucked her brains out.

  Jesus. I fisted my hand, surprised with the intensity of my desire. She was turning me into a beast with no control. This had never happened to me before. This was the first time ever that I was thinking about some woman when I was with a patient, and I wasn’t sure what to think of it.

  This spelled trouble, that was for sure, but I had no strength in me to stop it. Whether that was a good thing or not, I had a feeling I wouldn’t be able to act indifferent in front of her much longer.

  And that alone made my cock even harder.

  Chloe

  I shifted on my chair for the umpteenth time this hour, looking at Bryce through the glass of his office. He was typing something on his computer, his eyebrows drown together, completely unaware of my gaze. A strand of his dark hair fell across his forehead when he titled his head to the side, and I imagined pushing it aside before I ran my fingers through his hair.

  “Calm down, Chloe. You’re too obvious,” I muttered to myself.

  I dragged my eyes back to the computer screen and continued working on the document he was waiting for. My eyes searched for him too often, feeding on his alluring appearance, while my mind kept coming back to the moment two hours ago, when he threw on his white lab coat and rushed out of the office to save a life, becoming my object of admiration then and there.

  I never knew something like that could leave me hot and bothered, but here I was—captivated by the man who was sexy, smart, compassionate, and kind-hearted, saving the lives of so many patients, and what was hotter than that?

  I’d never had a type of man. I always went with the flow, enjoying the moment, so all my exes were pretty diverse when it came to looks and characteristics. But if someone asked me about my favorite type now, that would definitely be Bryce Evander.

  Somehow, all other guys looked pale compared to him. Also, I had never felt this kind of attraction before—the one that helped me forget about the whole world but him, and it didn’t matter that he was my boss.

  I was already in deep.

  I glanced at him as I stretched my arms and found him reclined in his chair with his hands behind his head, his eyes closed. He looked tired, as if the intervention had drained him off, and I conjured up an idea. Checking up my appearance in my compact mirror, I stood up and fixed creases on my skirt before I headed to his office.

  He snapped his eyes open when I entered his office, a seductive smile appearing on his face. “Yes?”

  I told myself to stay calm and collected, but my increased pulse betrayed me. His nearness and scent that spread through the room were more than enough to make me dazzled.

  “You’re tired, and you look like you could eat something. If you want, I can run out and get you some dinner.”

  His smile was gorgeous, making my insides warm. “You’re an angel, Chloe.” An angel. The warmth crept up my face. “I hit the jackpot with you. You’re the first assistant that paid that much attention to my personal needs.”

  I pulled my lower lip between my teeth. “Well, I have to make sure that you have everything you need.”

  He didn’t respond anything immed
iately, his smile wiped off his face as he lowered his eyes to my breasts for a fleeting moment. I swallowed the lump in my throat, too self-conscious. A hint of lust darkened his eyes, making breathing impossible, and I waited for his next words impatiently...

  “I’ll tell you what, why don’t we stay here and order in? We should make plans for our trip before tomorrow morning, so we can do it now. What do you say?”

  My body grew hotter, and I fought to maintain a neutral expression on my face. We would be all alone in his office for the rest of the evening. All alone... He and I...

  All kinds of scenarios crossed my mind, enticing me to accept right away.

  “Sure. I’d like that.”

  We ordered Chinese food and moved to the couch after it arrived. The rest of the office was already dark and deserted, providing us privacy. I was too aware of his body next to mine on the couch, his knee almost brushing mine whenever he leaned toward the coffee table to take more food from the containers. He acted normally, talking about our trip, but I paid little attention to his words as I tried to calm down my breathing and erratic thoughts.

  The evening had passed quickly, but with each passing hour, the air between us grew more charged.

  “So what do you think?” he asked me suddenly.

  “Huh?”

  I chided myself for the lack of attention and tried to remember what he’d been talking about during the last minute, but I came up short.

  “I asked you about the airline company. Which one do you think we should use?”

  “Oh, I’m sorry. My mind wandered off for a moment.”

  I looked at the choices, having little to no experience with the most of them. I was actually afraid of flying, which was one of the reasons why I rarely went abroad. Whenever I took a flight, I was nervous, experiencing nausea and profuse sweating with no one by my side to comfort me.

  For a second, I toyed with the idea of asking him to change his plan and use a car instead of flying, but I didn’t want to come out as demanding and difficult to work with. After all, this was my job, so I had to grab the bull by the horns and overcome my issue.
