Forbidden Temptress (book 1 in The Nanny Affairs)

CHAPTER 9

LUNA'S POV:

The morning after the argument I overheard between Silas & Sofia.....

I try to keep a low profile as I sneak through the penthouse, hoping to prepare a cold breakfast for the twins and get out before Silas spots me.

They can't fire me if they can't find me, right?

But I walk in to find Silas quietly sipping coffee at the kitchen counter.

"Silas! I didn't expect you to be up so early", I asked him genuinely surprised to see him this earlier.

"I've been meaning to talk to you. You can be a difficult woman to find, when you want to be".

Oh no here it come

I should act like I didn't over hear anything.

"Beautiful morning we're having isn't it? It's a great day to be gainfully employed", I told him acting super excited for nothing.

"I suppose it is. Are you feeling alright?", he looked confused on my outburst.

"I'm just so relieved I have a mature boss who doesn't fire people on a whim... "

Silas reaches out to touch my arm.

"I'm not going to fire you, Luna".

"But Sofia----"

"Sofia doesn't get a say in this", he said with so much seriousness.

"Yes, she was upset about what happened at the club, but I wouldn't fire someone just to sooth her ego. Especially when everything you said to Gabriel was on point".

"Good, 'cause I'm not gonna stop speaking my mind".

"I wouldn't want to. Besides if I fired everyone who voiced their opinion, I'd be an army of one. The world needs more thinkers like you".

Silas tilts his head to the side with a sparkle in his eyes.

"Actually, that's what I wanted to talk to you about this morning... your future. I thought maybe you could come to the office with me today".

"Carter can watch the boys, and I know you have ambitions outside of being a nanny. This is your chance to see a fortune 500 company up-close and personal".

"De Luca Enterprises is a little out of my league, don't you think?", I asked him nervously.

"Nonsense. I've seen your credentials. I almost handed your resume over to HR instead of hiring you personally".

"Really? I would've loved working under you... In any position".

"I don't doubt it. You're very capable".

"Thank you Silas. Or should I call you 'Mr. De Luca' again today, Or maybe Sir? ", I said biting on my lower lip.

"Silas is fine. And yes, keep that Sir for next time you will definitely need it",

"I fuckin knew it!, you freaky Old man. You like when I call you sir", I said giving him a knowing smile and hitting him on his shoulder a little to hard.

"Ouch", I hiss and hold my hand to my chest.

He doesn't even bulge, and rolled his eyes at me. But, I see the way he swallows.

"Come here", he takes my hand, gently running his thumb over and places soft kisses on my knuckles.

"That's for me to know. Now, do you wanna tell the boys, or should I ?".

"Let's gooo....", I practically run towards their room but not before feeling a burning sensation on my Ass.

I hiss rubbing my ass and turning back to look at him, a satisfied smirk appears on his lips seeing my reaction.
