Billionaire Boss (An Alpha Billionaire Romance)

by Jessica Marx

  “Hey, guys. Looks like you remembered each other.”

  “Actually, Jayson didn’t remember me at all,” Rachel responds.

  “Sorry. I only had eyes for one girl that night,” Jayson says, and I roll my eyes remembering the blonde I saw him with that same night.

  “It’s fine. I actually had a little fun with him when I got here. It was my payback,” Rachel says, smiling slyly.

  Jason rolls his eyes. “Yes. It was a lot of fun.”

  “What am I missing here?” I ask as Brooke finally makes her way over and asks what I would like. She takes a little longer than necessary to set the wine glass down and pour, probably so she can hear what’s going on.

  “I thought it would be fun to use some cheesy pick-up lines on Jayson,” Rachel says “Kudos to him, though. He told me he wasn’t interested because he has a serious girlfriend. If I was giving him the ‘are you faithful’ best friend test, he totally would have passed.”

  “Glad you found it so amusing,” Jayson says with a smile.

  “I did. And I don’t think you’re a douchebag anymore, so it kind of all has a happy ending,” Rachel tells him, looking at the both of us. “Seriously, though, it’s been nice getting to know you a bit for myself, not just through what Ashley tells me.”

  “Yes, it has. Although I’m sure she only tells you good things,” Jayson replies.

  “She tells me all the good things,” Rachel says with a wink.

  “Well, I’m glad you guys got that all ironed out. I think. What happened to Chris?” I ask Rachel.

  “He has to work early and didn’t feel like going anywhere. I thought I would come solo, anyway. I wanted to get the scoop on your mother, but maybe this isn’t the best time.”

  “It’s fine. Jayson is aware of everything that’s going on, obviously.” I take a long sip from my glass before I retell the story from this morning to them.

  “Oh, shit,” Rachel replies. “Your mom can be so harsh sometimes. Sorry, Ash.”

  “Whatever. It’s pretty much the reaction I expected. Luckily, Jayson suggested we all meet and settle everything together,” I tell her with a note of sarcasm.

  “Oh! Can I come?” Rachel jokes.

  “Sure! You can take my place.”

  “Come on Ashley, it won’t be so bad.” Jayson interrupts. “I’ll help Cynthia understand everything and we will be one big, happy family.” Rachel laughs and I roll my eyes again.

  “We’ll see what happens. For now, what should we do tonight?” I ask.

  “I think I’m going to head home. You have company now and Chris is probably all lonely without me,” Rachel says with a wink.

  “Okay. We can walk you, if you’d like,” I offer.

  “I’ll be fine. It’s just up the block. Thanks, though.”

  We all get up from our stools and take the last couple of sips of our drinks. I say goodnight to the few people from work who are still there and the three of us walk out the doors.

  “It was nice to meet you, Rachel—for real, this time,” Jayson says.

  “Nice to meet you, too. I’m glad we bumped into each other,” Rachel replies. She gives each of us a quick hug and walks in the direction of her apartment.

  “Where would you like to go now?” Jayson asks.

  I shrug. “I don’t know. What do you feel like doing?”

  “You,” he responds with a sly smile.

  “Come on, I’m serious,” I say.

  “Me too. Where do you want to go?”

  “Let’s go to my apartment. I rushed out today and would like to change out of these clothes and chill on my couch. Is that okay?”

  “Sure. I just want to be with you tonight. Doesn’t matter where.” He really knows how to make me feel special.

  “All right, then, let’s go,” I say. We reach our hands out simultaneously, which makes me smile, and walk back to my building hand in hand.

  It’s a Sunday night, so there aren’t many people out on the streets. We walk slowly and talk about this morning without getting angry or upset. Jayson has a way of making me feel good, like everything will just be okay, always. He lifts my worries and fears and replaces them with love and hope.

  By the time we reach my building, I’m not dreading our first official “family meeting” anymore. I’m not looking forward to it, either, but I know we will get through it.

  I say hello to the doorman as Jayson and I pass. We are still holding hands as we wait for the elevator. We ride up to the twenty-first floor and walk into my apartment. I pour us both a glass of water and open a bottle of wine I’ve had sitting on my counter for several weeks now. We clink glasses and each take a sip.

  “Why don’t you hang out here? I want to shower and change, if you don’t mind,” I suggest.

  “Sure. Unless you want some help,” Jayson offers.

  “I think I have it under control,” I reply.

  I toss the television remote at him and take a couple more sips of my wine before I walk into the bedroom. I don’t want to leave him out there for long, so I hurriedly turn the water on and undress. I shower quickly, soaping up my body and just rinsing my hair before getting out. I wrap myself in a towel and give my hair a fast comb through, then head back into the bedroom to get dressed.

  After a couple of steps, I stop in my tracks. Jayson is sitting on the edge of my bed. He pats the spot next to him indicating I should sit down there. I raise my eyebrows as I look at him.

  “Don’t be scared, Ashley,” Jayson teases me, patting the bed again.

  “You don’t scare me,” I say with a smirk as I walk over and stand next to the bed. “What’re you doing in here?”

  “Nothing. Just thought I would make myself comfortable while I waited. Are you going to sit down?” Jayson asks.

  “Sure,” I answer and boldly sit on his lap.

  “What are you doing?” he asks, though he doesn’t object.

  “Just making myself comfortable. Don’t be scared,” I say, mimicking him and smiling.

  “As a matter of fact, you’re a little intimidating right now,” he answers.

  “Let me help you relax, then.”

  I unbutton his shirt and pull it back off of his shoulders and over his arms. I gently push him back onto the bed so he is lying down with his feet on the floor. I move off his lap and unbutton his jeans, then pull the zipper down. I grab a hold of the waistline of Jayson’s pants and begin to remove them. He arches himself up so there is no resistance and I pull them all the way down.

  Sitting next to him, I take his cock in my hand and begin to stroke it, slowly running my hand up and down his shaft. Jayson exhales a long breath.

  “Are you feeling more relaxed now?” I ask, smiling slyly as I continue to fondle him.

  “I am,” Jayson answers.

  “Good.”

  I stand up in front of him and remove my towel. He starts to sit up and I push him back down.

  “Down, boy. Not yet. You can look, but don’t touch,” I tease him before slowly dropping to my knees.

  I begin to stroke him again, harder this time. Jayson is lying back and can’t see me anymore. He is breathing heavier as I continue to move my hand over him. I run my other hand up the side of his leg to the top of his thigh. He is so hard already from my touch. I lean up on my knees and as I continue to work him with my hand and wrap my lips around the head of his dick.

  Jayson moans softly and sits up. I stroke him a few more times while my lips are closed tight around him and then let go.

  I slide my mouth over his cock, which is now completely hard and try to take it all in. I run my tongue along its length as I glide my warm mouth up and down. Jayson has his hands resting lightly on my head. I keep moving my mouth over him, sucking gently along the shaft, causing a suction that I can tell Jayson is enjoying by the groans he is making each time.

  I wrap my hand over his cock again as I continue to suck and stroke in unison. I work faster, bringing him close to the edge and then slowi
ng down again. I continue for a few more minutes until his fingers are entwined in my hair, gripping tight, and I don’t think he will be able to hold back anymore.

  I slowly stand up again. Jayson is sitting in front of me and looks up as he runs his hands up over my breasts.

  “You are so fucking sexy, Ashley,” he says in a breathless voice. I narrow my eyes and smile as I push him back onto the bed.

  I reach over and take a condom out of my drawer, quickly unwrapping it and unrolling it over his erection. Then I move forward and straddle his lap. I put my hands on his shoulders and lower myself onto him. His cock easily slides inside of me and when I have completely taken him in, I gasp.

  I move my hips slowly back and forth, making myself comfortable. His cock is so thick it rubs against every inch inside of me. I am wet already and have barely even moved. Jayson places his hands on my breasts and caresses them as I start to ride him.

  I grind my hips, moving up and down, slowly at first and then picking up the pace as I go. I’m making small circles as his cock moves in and out of me. Jayson moves his hands to my hips, helping to exaggerate my movements.

  He sits up and we are face to face. He keeps his hands on my hips and I move faster, wrapping my arms over his shoulders. I continue to ride him, circling my hips and sliding his stiff cock in and out. I keep the same motion, the head of his cock is repeatedly rubbing my sweet spot and I moan.

  Jayson grabs my ass and pulls me hard into him. At the same time, he presses his lips into mine and starts to kiss me. Our tongues dance again, connecting us on another level. He is pushing and pulling me into him and I’m moving up and down on just the tip of his dick now. It’s all I need as I relish the feel of it going in and out of me causing a very pleasurable friction in just the right place.

  I am about to orgasm and I can’t stop it. I tighten my grip around Jayson’s back and a throaty groan escapes my mouth as I release myself onto him. Jayson moans as he feels me tightening around him, my juices spilling over his shaft while it’s still inside me.

  I continue to thrust my hips forward and back, but slower now. Jayson lightly sucks the tip of my tongue before taking it into his mouth again. He is massaging my tongue with his, our mouths hot and filled with passion. Our bodies are pressed together. My nipples are hard and they rub against Jayson’s chest as I continue to slide myself up and down the length of his long cock.

  I lean up again, pulling myself up enough that only the tip of his dick is inside me and then I plunge down on him, hard.

  “Oh, yes,” Jayson says, grasping my hips again with both hands.

  I do it again, letting almost his whole shaft free and then coming back down on and enveloping it again inside me. I continue this motion again and again. Jayson lets out a groan each time I thrust his cock back inside of me.

  I feel myself start to tighten as I near climax again. Jayson must feel it, too. He moves his hands up to my neck and pulls my face closer into his as he sucks my tongue into his mouth and lets it go, gently biting my lip before kissing me again.

  I open my eyes, not even realizing they’ve been closed and Jayson is looking right at me. He kisses me with more intensity when I return his gaze. I drive his cock back into me, burying it deep inside as I make one small circle with my hips. He grips me tightly.

  At Jayson’s stare and the sensation of his cock inside me, I climax again. As I do. Jayson pulls my hips back into him and breathes heavily as I feel him spasm inside of me, letting himself reach climax at the same time.

  We continue to move in unison. but slower now until our bodies come to a stop. Jayson is giving me small, light kisses on the lips. His hands are still on my hips but his grip is much looser. I rest my arms over his shoulders and sigh.

  “Mmm, Ashley,” Jayson says in a soft voice as he looks at me again. I smile back at him then pick myself up off of his lap and sit down next to him. We stay like that, reveling in the aftermath of our passion for several moments.

  “I didn’t take you for the aggressive type. Glad I was wrong,” Jayson murmurs, breaking the silence.

  “I’m really not,” I reply with a smirk. “You just make me happy. And you helped me so much today. I just wanted to show my appreciation.”

  Jayson returns my grin. “Well, I’m not sure what I did, but I hope I do it again.”

  I lean over to pick my towel up off the floor and wrap it around myself again before standing up. I’m unsure as to why I feel shy suddenly, but I don’t want to walk to the dresser naked. Jayson bends down to retrieve his pants. He inserts his legs and then stands to pull them up. I watch him, once again in awe of his amazing shape.

  My eyes move to his firm ass as he raises his jeans up over it, shrouding my view. I work my glance up his torso and appreciate his muscular chest for a moment before standing up myself.

  When I get to my feet, Jayson takes one of my hands in his and softly kisses me on the cheek. I meet his gaze.

  “You are truly an amazing woman, Ashley,” he says. I smile back at him.

  “And you’re pretty incredible yourself,” I reply, staring back at him. Jayson kisses me softly once more.

  “Let’s finish our wine before I go home,” he says.

  “Why do you have to go home?” I ask.

  “I have to be at work in the morning. I also don’t have anything to sleep in or wear tomorrow.”

  “That sucks.”

  “Yes. It does,” Jayson agrees.

  I walk to the dresser and find a tank and a pair of comfortable shorts. I pull the shorts up under my towel and feel Jayson’s eyes on me.

  After I’m dressed, I walk out of the bedroom and Jayson follows me. I pick up both of our wine glasses from the coffee table as we pass. We go into the kitchen and Jayson sits at the breakfast bar. I stand on the opposite side across from him.

  “So, do you know your schedule yet for the week?” he asks.

  “No, but I can look quick while you’re here,” I reply, opening my laptop that’s sitting on the counter close by. I log into the restaurant website to check the schedule postings.

  “Looks like I’m off on Tuesday and Wednesday all day.”

  “Perfect. Let’s make arrangements tomorrow to meet with the parents,” he replies. “We should get this over with. I don’t want anything to stand in our way, Ashley. And I don’t need you to stress about your mother.”

  I shrug. “I guess you’re right. I’ll text my mom tomorrow. I don’t think I can take another phone call with her.”

  “Fine. Let’s plan for Tuesday. The sooner, the better,” he responds and takes a long sip of wine, draining his glass.

  “I hate to do this, but I have to get going,” Jayson tells me. “I have to get some sleep, and if I don’t leave soon, I don’t think I ever will.”

  I sigh. “So don’t ever leave. I don’t mind. Although your apartment is much nicer than this little hole.” I look disapprovingly around my tiny home.

  “We can talk about that one day in the future, beautiful,” Jayson says, standing up. “Come on, show me to the door so I can watch your sweet ass one more time before I go.”

  I step around to his side of the counter, look up at him, and smile before I strut to the door. He follows close behind me and when I turn to see where he is, we are face to face.

  “Want me to take you down the elevator?” I ask. “I know how much you enjoy our rides together.”

  “That’s only my elevator,” Jayson says with a wink. “You stay here. You look too cute. I don’t want the doorman looking at you like that—especially when I’m on my way out.”

  “Oh, please,” I reply, shrugging him off. I open my door and we are standing together in the entryway.

  “I’ll call you in the morning,” Jayson says.

  “Thanks for coming by. I had a good time,” I reply with a smile.

  “Me too. Goodnight.”

  Jayson tilts my head up to face him and plants his lips on mine. His mouth is warm. He parts my lips with
his tongue and slips it inside my mouth and he tastes sweet, like the wine we just finished.

  He places his hands on the back of my neck and tugs on my hair, pulling my head back some more. We kiss intensely, our tongues entwined together, revolving with a now familiar rhythm. Then he lets me go.

  “Sweet dreams, Ashley,” Jayson says with our faces only inches apart. I’m still feeling dreamy from his kiss.

  “Sweet dreams, Jayson,” I reply staring into his eyes.

  He gives my hand a tight squeeze before stepping back and walking toward the elevator. I want to call out “I love you,” but I can’t. I shouldn’t. Not yet, anyway. I want to hear it from Jayson first, when he knows I’m listening.

  The elevator doors open and he gives me a little wave after he steps in. I wave back, and when the doors close, step back into my apartment and lock the door.

  JAYSON

  * * *

  I have so much energy from our night together I decide to walk a couple of avenues before I catch a cab. I need to wind down so I can get some sleep. It’s already so late and I have an early morning tomorrow.

  Another amazing night with Ashley. Every minute I spend with her makes me want a hundred more. Just when I think I have her pegged, she surprises me again. She has been very submissive and not forward at all. Tonight was the complete opposite. Ashley took complete control. And when she took my cock in her mouth? Shit. It felt so good.

  I wanted to face-fuck her so hard, but I couldn’t. As much as my libido was craving it, my conscience wouldn’t let me. I didn’t want to do anything to turn her off or distract her from her own thing she had going on.

  I’m glad she broke the news to Cynthia so we can figure out what’s going on and not have guilt and worry hanging over our heads. My father was not as cool with us as I thought he would be. I don’t know if believes me about being serious about Ashley. I’m sure once we talk more, he’ll know I’m not playing games with this one.

  And I think once Cynthia sees how much I love her daughter, she’ll have no choice but to concede. Isn’t that what all parents want? For their children to be happy? I’ll have to make it a point to speak to my father before our meeting with Ashley and her mother so I can be sure we are on the same page. Once he’s on my side, Cynthia won’t have much of a leg to stand on. I don’t think she’ll risk her own relationship just to ruin mine.
