“Joe is so sweet. He’s always bringing me desserts his wife makes for me.” She lifts a cake up to show me.
“Who’s Joe?”
She looks at me and shakes her head. "The doorman downstairs. I like him," she says as she walks toward me to place the cake on the counter. “Do you want me to throw up? Please put some clothes on.” She walks away from me, putting some flowers on the table.
“Even I know that my body looks good.” She looks over her shoulder and looks me up and down. I watch her walking around my apartment, “Like what you see?” I ask as I walk over to her slowly.
“Not really.” She walks away from me. Oh, today I’m going to break her. Just looking at her body, my rod it hard and you can see it. “But you like something, don’t you?” She smiles at me as her eyes move down my body and stop at my towel.
“I do, and I want a taste,” I say slowly, watching her sitting on the chair. “Do you want a taste?”
“I would like some coffee.” She's playing hard to get, and I like it. She's not going to be easy to break. She has a lot of willpower and she can play this game well. “Should I make breakfast?” Standing up, she walks over to me. Leaving a small gap between us, she looks down then traces my skin just above the towel with her finger. "I'm hungry," she whispers, blowing on my bare skin.
She goes to walk away, but I pull her closer to me, placing her hands on my chest. “You can be a tease. Are you ready to play the game? Round two, you will be in my bed.” I let go of her and walk away to get some clothes on. Today, she will cum. I'll hear her scream my name.

After three hours of going back and forth, I finally finish my meeting with Travis. Lexi went downstairs to talk to Joe while I worked, which I was fine with. I can’t make her sit here while I’m in the office on the phone for so long.
Walking downstairs to see where she is, I hear her laughing. “He looks just like you,” I hear her say as I open the door. “I bet you were a player in your day.” I walk over to the desk.
“Mr. Knight.” The doorman stands up.
“You must be Joe.” I put my hand out for him to shake. “Have you worked here long?” I ask him.
“Yes, sir. I started before you moved in.” He smiles at me. He’s worked here for so many years, and in a less than a week, Lexi knows more about him than I do.
“Sorry it's taken me so long to come say hello to you.” I look over at Lexi with her legs crossed, looking all long and lean.
“You’re a busy man, sir.” Joe says.
“I have some builders coming tomorrow morning to start ripping stuff out of the penthouse. Can you give them a key?”
“Yes, sir.” Joe writes it down.
“Can I have a look at it?” Lexi asks. I look at her, confused. “The penthouse—I would love to see it,” she says.
“I would love to show it to you,” I say, giving a nod to Joe.
“See you later, Joe.” Lexi kisses him on the cheek then loops her arm in mine, playing the girlfriend card.
Standing in the elevator, and soon as the door closes, she pulls away from me. “So, how come you’re getting everything ripped out of the penthouse?”
“Do you know that you have some very sexy legs?” I tell her, wanting to change the subject from the penthouse.
“I do now.” As the elevator door opens straight into the foyer of the penthouse, she looks at me with a smile. I look at her legs again as she walks further into the room. Oh God, she's going to kill me. I need to fuck her. I’m not sure my balls will last much longer.
“So, is everything being ripped out?” She looks over at the kitchen.
“Yeah, I want everything from the kitchen to the bedrooms to be new.” I follow her to the window, standing behind her. This is it. I’m not letting her walk away from me until I make her cum.
I trace my finger slowly down her neck and she takes a step forward from me, but I follow. I place my lips against her neck and whisper against her skin. “Remember when I told you that there was nothing in the contract about me giving you favors?” I feel her body break out in goosebumps, and I smile. “Can I ask, how long has it been since you had sex?” I'm hoping that it has been so long she can’t even remember the last person that touched her. Taking one more step forward, she can’t go anywhere else now with the window in front of us. “I’m waiting.” My lips softly touch the soft skin on her neck. The place I’ve obsessed over since the first day I saw her.
“It’s been a while. I’ve been busy with work,” she says softly. She goes to move to the side, but I hold her in place with my hand on her hip.
I nuzzles against the side of her neck with my nose. The sound of her breath catching in her throat only turns me on more. Taking my finger, I trace her neck, then move slowly down her arm as I softly place kisses on her neck. Lexi shivers as I run my tongue up to her ear and she finally does what I’ve been waiting for. She moves her head to give me more access. All I want now is to hear her moan for me.
I move my hand over her stomach and whisper in her ear. “Ready for round one?” She stops my hand from moving. I turn her around and push her up against the window with my nose still nuzzled in her neck. God, she smells like heaven.
Trailing tiny butterfly kisses down her neck to her collarbone, I smile as I hear her gasp. Slowly moving back up, I gently trace her jaw with my tongue, and I’m rewarded with her shivers. Her breathing gets shallower as I get closer to her ear, then gently suck on her earlobe.
Pulling away from her, I hold her against the window. With her eyes looking straight into mine, I gently bring my finger to her cheek and slowly move it along her chin. Taking a step closer to her, I quickly take her lips with mine.
I run my tongue along her bottom lip, begging her to open for me and I’m rewarded when she does. I slide my tongue against hers. Her hands move over my chest to my shoulders. I’ve waited long enough to feel her touch me like this. Her hands settle around my neck and she pulls me closer.
She tastes just as good as I thought she would. Her hand moves up my face, making my skin burn wherever she touches.
My phone rings in my pocket and Lexi goes to walk away, but I press against her. She moans against my mouth and the vibration runs through me. I don’t want to let go of her. I want to kiss her more, touch her more, and I want to fuck her even more.
My phone rings again and I gently break the kiss. “Fuck,” I say under my breath. I look at Lexi, her cheeks flushed and lips swollen, and for the first time, I see her eyes staring back at me full of intense passion. I have never seen eyes that looked at me like that, and it does something to me.
I go to say something, but my phone rings. I don’t take my eyes off of Lexi as I answer it. “This better be fucking good,” I say loudly without knowing who I’m talking to.
“We need to talk.” The sound of her voice grates on my nerves. I walk away from Lexi.
“Don’t call my fucking phone. I’ve told you I don’t want to talk to you.” Ending the call, I turn around and see Lexi isn’t where I left her.
Fuck, the bitch screwed up my chance with Lexi. I turn toward the door to see if I can catch her before she leaves, and see her at the elevator.
“Are you finished with work for the day?” Lexi asks, holding the elevator door open.
“Yes, and I’m hoping to pick up where we left off.” I walk over to the elevator. “Your lips taste very…”
“Do you want me to stay for dinner, or can I go home?” she asks, and I wonder what’s going through her head.
“Dinner,” I tell her. She steps into the elevator without saying anything else. I know she liked the kiss too, but I get the feeling she's more pissed off with herself than she is with me. I’m going to give her a little bit of space so there won’t be any doubt in her mind that she wants this just as much as I do.
***
Walking around town, I wanted to buy Lexi a pair of these Jimmy’s that she talks about. I bought her a pair, but she’s never wo
rn them. So, I want to buy some for her to wear to dinner tonight. The price of these shoes is ridiculous, but I told her I would buy her all the Jimmy’s she wants, and I’m keeping my word.
Lexi told me she has plans for breakfast with a friend, and that she's sorry it was short notice, but they only told her they were in town yesterday. I told her I would never stop her meeting up with her friends and I wanted her to live her life like she normally would.
Looking across the road, I see Lexi with two guys. One is a tall blonde and the other is a little shorter with dark hair. I stand there for a moment watching her. She has her arms wrapped around the blond as they walk down the street. Looking at the road to make sure no cars are coming, I walk across the street and stand in front of her and her friends.
She looks at me in surprise. The guy with his arm around her goes to walk around me.
“Do you mind?” the dark-haired guy with them says. My eyes stay on Lexi the whole time, and her eyes never leave mine. “Lexi, do you know him?” He looks at her.
“No, Dan, I don’t. He must have me confused with someone else,” she says and looks at the guy she just called Dan.
I don’t know what comes over me. I have no idea why his words annoy me so much. I have no idea why seeing her with them has angered me. Grabbing her by the arm, I push against her, making her walk backward into a small alley.
“Get your hands off her,” one of the guys shouts.
Lexi looks at me and nods as I push her against the building. “You think you're playing a cute game,” I say, bringing my face very close to hers, “But did you forget the time I told you, you were now mine?” Licking my lips, I watch her breathe deliberately slow.
“I'm not yours, and what I do on my own time is my business.” She pushes me away from her. “I’m calling Ms. Jackie for a meeting. Actually, I’m just going to go on over there now.” She walks away from me to where the guys are standing. I watch her whispering to the one she called Dan. I don’t know what she's telling him, but I become more concerned when he to looks over at the other man and nods.
The dark-haired guy wraps his arms around her waist and pulls her in closer and then kisses her. Fuck if I’m going to just stand here and watch this. I muscle my way over to them and pull Lexi away from him.
“We can go together,” I tell her, pulling her away from the two men. Now, I’m pissed off. How dare she kiss someone in front of me when she was just kissing me yesterday? It’s a good thing Jackie’s workplace is on this street, because I don’t think I can keep my temper at bay.
Walking into the building, I walk straight into Jackie’s office. She looks between us, so I let go of Lexi’s arm and pace the room.
“Would someone like to tell me what's happening?” Jackie asks.
“Tell her that the contract says she's my girlfriend, and—”
“It says that I have to lie to your family and friends, not mine. I won’t lie to my family,” Lexi shouts, and I turn to face her as she looks at Jackie.
“Lexi, is Dan here?” Jackie asks.
“Yeah, and Jon came with him. They're getting married,” she says, in a more happier tone. “I won’t lie to my brother.” She looks at Jackie, almost begging, like there's something I should know, but don’t.
“You’re right. You shouldn’t have to lie to Dan—”
“So, now you kiss your brother’s boyfriend?” I don’t care if I did interrupt them.
“Well, the last person I kissed was an asshole,” she bites back, and I can’t help but smile at her. “And to be honest, he wasn’t that good.” She’s now sitting on the chair next to Jackie.
I look at Jackie for a moment, then bring my eyes back to Lexi. “You could have told me that he was your brother,” I tell her.
“I don’t have to introduce you to my family. This is why Ms. Jackie has rules, so that I can live my life and not worry about my family knowing about you,” she says, not quite yelling but still at a higher pitch than normal. “You know what, Ms. Jackie? I’m done. I can't do this.” She looks at Jackie who, in turn, looks over at me.
“Lexi, can you wait for me outside, please?” Jackie asks her, while staring at me.
Without saying a word, Lexi leaves, and I resume pacing the room.
“Ethan, what’s wrong?” Jackie asks me.
I told her I wanted Lexi to keep me company because I felt like I was going off the deep end sometimes. I needed someone to keep my mind on other things. Yes, I still drink every day, but Lexi helps ease some of those thoughts.
“I want her, but not only as my call girl. I want her to be mine.” I look at Jackie. She knows my history with women and she knows I’m not that open to relationships. “She’s not breaking our deal. There's no way she would even sit in the same room with me if she didn’t have to. I just need some time for her to get to know me,” I tell her.
Tapping her pen on the table, she watches me pacing the room. “I'll talk to her, and I'll make sure she's there for dinner,” Jackie tells me.
I stop in front of her desk and place the bag on there that I got for Lexi. “Can you please give her this?” I ask, patting the bag. Walking out of the office, I look over at Lexi talking on her phone.
I’m fighting with myself to not go over and talk to her. For the first time, I have to put trust in someone else to get me what I want. I never depend on others. If I want it, I get it. But with Lexi, it’s different. She stands firm with what she says and that’s what I like about her. I have to believe she will be there for dinner. If she comes back, there's no way in hell I’m letting her leave.
Lexi
I never thought I would get into an argument with Ms. Jackie. I thought she would always take her girls’ side because we followed the rules. Her rules. Until Ethan.
Two hours. That’s how long I was in her office fighting my case. I won’t lie to my family about who he is, and why I know him. Don’t get me wrong, Dan knows my job. I’ve never lied to him about it either, and I won’t do it now. I could tell him he's a client and I’m stuck with him for a year, but I don’t want to get into that with Dan. He’s already very protective of me, and telling him about my conversation with Ms. Jackie about him and that he might be around, was already hard enough. He was only supposed to be here for a few days, but Dan and Jon both said they were staying here until they're sure I’m safe. I tried to fight them on it, but it got me nowhere. In the end, I just let it go.
So, back to Ethan and his stupid behavior. Ms. Jackie said I needed to give him some time and he would be fine. I need to give him some time to open up to me. The speech was endless. I love her for what she has done for me, I do, but how much longer do I have to listen to her talk about him?
Then I think back to the kiss. Oh God, just thinking about it now has me wanting more. He knows how to move around my neck. I tried so hard not to moan. I didn't want him to know he was getting to me. That didn't work. My skin was on fire everywhere he kissed me.
After two hours of Ms. Jackie telling me to give him a chance, I finally said okay. I'll go to the family dinner. I might as well see how he's with his family.
I sent him a message to tell him that I would meet him downstairs.
“Hi, Joe.” I walk over to him.
“Well, look at you. Big man taking you out?” Joe walks around, takes my hand and spins me around.
“Family dinner,” I say, laughing.
“Well, you look beautiful.” Joe leans in to kiss me on the cheek.
“Are you trying to take my girl from me, Joe?” I look behind Joe and see Ethan walking over to us.
“No, sir.” Joe lets go of my hand and walks back behind the desk.
“Joe, you don’t have to be so scared of him. Plus, I like you. He wouldn’t get you fired, would you, baby?” I look at Ethan with a smile. He looks at Joe then back to me.
“If it means keeping this smile on your face, Joe won’t be going anywhere.” He turns to face Joe. “Just don’t ever upset her,” he says with a smile,
then looks at me. “You look beautiful.” He leans down to give me a quick kiss. Playing the perfect boyfriend, I see.
“Are we walking or driving?” I ask him. There are a few things I want to ask him before we go.
He looks up and down my body. I wore the shoes that he bought me. I mean, how could I not? They're stunning pink little boots and they look amazing on me with the tan I have.
“If you want to walk, we can walk,” he says. Turning around to walk out of the building, Ethan follows, placing his hand on my lower back. “This dress looks very nice on you.” He pulls me closer to him.
It took me a while to figure out what I should wear. I didn't want to be too casual, but then I didn't want to go too dressed up either. In the end, I picked a nice floral dress.
“Thank you. So, I was reading up on your family. I know everything about your mom, sister, Ms. Jackie and her husband, but Ms. Jackie said a man named Travis is coming. Who the hell is that?” I ask. If we have been dating, then he must have mentioned him before.
“He’s my friend who now works with me.”
Well, it seems that’s all the information I'll be getting from him. I guess we are back to the cold Ethan.
“How long have we been dating, and what's my job?” I ask. I don’t want to mess this up. I mean, my boss is going to be there too.
“You’re in marketing, and we have been dating since the contract started.” Ethan stops walking and takes my hand so that I stop too. “I don’t say this much, but I’m sorry. I overreacted and it won’t happen again.” I give him a nod. He moves his mouth to my ear. “Have you thought about our kiss?” he whispers, and my body shivers at the thought. He kisses my neck and I close my eyes, letting the images flash through my head.
“Shall we go?” I ask, taking a step away from him. His mom only lives ten minutes away, and it’s a beautiful evening, so I don’t mind walking.
