His gaze rakes her face again.The gnawing apprehension bubbles over in her stomach.Oh what oh what is he going to ask me to do?He says, "I have seen you around and taken note of your progress in all these years."You have? She's astonished. "I believe you have the ruthless ambition to make things happen for yourself.""I do, Mr. Crawford, I do." This comes out in a bit of a rush.He leans back in his chair, and it creaks with protest."You see, I have certain personal needs. I'm looking for the right woman to fulfill them, and I believe you have the characteristics to tend to my needs, Susan."She can't believe what she's hearing. Her jaw drops."Wh-what kind of needs, Mr. Crawford?"He steeples his hands. "Let's just say I enjoy taking a strong-willed, ambitious woman like yourself and molding her into someone who will bend the knee and obey my every command. Are you that woman, Ms. Susan Chalmers?"The proposition dangles in front of her like a carrot on a stick.This can't be happening, she thinks. This is surreal. Channing Crawford wants her in the physical sense? He who is unattainable and lives in the clouds, who is secretly desired by every woman in the company, only they are too afraid to even speak of it?Bend the knee.It sounds deliciously depraved . . . and yet tantalizing. Her terror surfaces again."Wh-what's in it for me, sir?" "I will be making a decision on the Vice-President post by Friday next week. Leonard Drake, a fine upstart individual with extremely impressive paper qualifications and a track record that dwarfs even yours, is your main contender - as you no doubt have acceded. He has promised to bring in the Buchanan contract by Thursday next week."He lets this float in the tension-filled air between them.The Buchanan contract? Her spirits sink. The Buchanan contract is the Holy Grail of contracts - the biggest, most notoriously sought among them. Edward Buchanan is a recluse whose company is worth eighteen billion dollars.A recluse who donates generously to the church."I see," she says, the pit of her stomach caving in. How can she possibly compete with that?But that's precisely the point. She can compete with it.Her voice is shaky as she says, "What would you require me to do, Mr. Crawford? And for how long?""Let's make it until Friday, Susan Chalmers. As for what I require . . . well, let's just say you will do my every bidding . . . my every command." His crystalline blue eyes bore probingly into hers.She licks her lips nervously. "And would those . . . requests . . . be sexual in nature, sir?"He waits a beat before answering, "Yes, for most part."From the AuthorThe story of this novelette's charting on the bestseller lists is painful to me. 3 weeks after its publication, 'His Indecent Proposition' hit No. 62 on the Barnes and Noble overall bestseller charts. On the very next day, it was pulled from the charts and a thousand points was added to its rank (No. 1053). This despite it selling more copies than another book of mine which has entered the Barnes and Noble Top 100 ('A Virgin Enslaved' by Artemis Hunt at No. 72).After checking with my author friends, I was told that Barnes and Noble does this periodically to erotica as they do not want erotica besmirching its front pages together with the Harry Potters and Hunger Games. I find this unfair because 'His Indecent Proposition' has the same kind of story structure (same, but different) as 'Fifty Shades', and nothing has been done to derail 'Fifty Shades'.Barnes and Noble have since admitted their 'error' and reinstated the novelette. It went on to hit No. 22 in their overall bestseller charts.Pages of His Indecent Proposition :
