Italian Obsession

Chapter 6

Valentina

Having Danny touch me the way he did and the fact that he kissed me could easily cost me my job. Maybe all of the other women he likes to hit on would easily give into him, but I am by far better than that.

He thinks I can be such an easy lay like the rest, but I refuse to damage my reputation by making a stupid mistake like that.

Despite his good looks, I had no reason to even entertain the idea of sleeping with him. My relationship with my sister already deteriorated, but if I made this mistake, it would only make things worse for not only myself but for Danny.

As I sent an email to a potential client, I saw a new email pop up on my screen, noticing that it was from Danny unsurprisingly. Why the man thought that I would give into him, I had no idea, but he sure had a surprise coming for him.

You sure play hard to get, and that is what I love about you, Valentina. But I am far from being done with you. I know that you want this just as much as I, you just don't want to face it. We have an attraction that I can't let go of and I refuse to let you slip through my fingers. You can play the role of being an innocent, shy young woman but I know better than that. Just you wait, sweetheart and I will make all of your dirty little fantasies come true.

-Danny

His obsession with me and not taking no for an answer has only made me lose more respect for him. I could easily show Mr. Burnside this email, exposing Danny but I am not the petty type. I had every reason to be, but he can suffer on his own. I have no interest in him, nor will that ever change because if it ever did, it could not only ruin his marriage, but it could damage the broken relationship I already have with Natalia.

"Is everything alright?"

"Yeah."

Micah shook her head. "That's a load of bull, Val. What did he say?"

"He kissed me in his office."

"He did what?"

"You heard me."

"What did you say?"

"I stepped away from him and said that it was not appropriate. The man does not seem to take no for an answer, but he has one thing coming for him. He may have all of the other women tricked, but I refuse to involve myself with not only my boss, but my sister's husband."

"I am glad you feel that way."

"I just hope I keep this mindset."

"Just focus on work, and things will work out."

"I sure hope so."

I left work, wondering if Danny would call or message me again, asking for me to see him in private. I knew that he liked me or simply wanted to use me for sex, but I also knew that he could just be lying to my face just to add me to his list of women. I had no interest in him and that would not change.
