I rose a hand to my hair, my fingers brushing through the tendrils as a sigh left my lips. Another merger. It would takes weeks to finalize and probably more late nights at the office than I cared for. I stared at my computer screen, watching as the branch managers discussed terms over a video call. The online meeting had happened days ago but I had missed it. Chasing ex-valets and such. I hadn't meant to let it affect my work. It was supposed to be a one-off type of thing. Yet here I was, trying to catch up on these important discussions, barely able to focus on my screen. Not when my mind kept wandering to last night.
What we did. What I had said.
It had just slipped out. Okay, maybe slipped out was the wrong term. It wasn't that spontaneous. The thought had crossed my mind a few times. Or maybe more than a few. Maybe every day. Maybe every other hour.
So I said it. I told him to move in with me. Or asked. Well, not really. I never asked anyone for anything. I told them what to do. Demanded compliance. But Nunew was different. As much as I wanted to control him, I also wanted it to be his choice. For it to be an offer rather than an expectation.
So I had sat on it all night after I had said it. Waited for him to give me his response. He'd been shocked at first. His wide eyes and stuttered words had given that away. I would have been too if I were in his shoes. We were strangers. Well, not entirely strangers. Not when it came to late nights. Hot skin. His body under mine as I fucked him into the mattress. I shifted in my leather chair, leaning back as I tried to keep myself in check. I was at work after all.
We were strangers in every other way except sex. And I preferred it that way. I wanted to keep it that way. It was better if he didn't know anything else about me. And I knew enough about him. At least, enough for now. That didn't mean I didn't want to know more. Because I did. I wanted to know everything about the chocolate haired youth who I allowed to share my bed.
And that scared me.
I had been watching Nunew since his first day working as a valet at my company. He had caught my eye the second I had pulled into the lot. It would have been impossible to not notice him. Soft hair barely meeting a neat brow, satin smooth skin, plump lips. The kind that begged to be kissed. That were meant to do other, more sinful things. Things that I desperately wanted to see. That I wanted to experience. It had taken all of my self control to remain professional, cold even. It was better that way. He was my employee. A twenty-something-year-old kid who was working hard to pay his rent. Probably living in some hole in the wall studio apartment. Not the kind of hookup that I usually wanted.
The usual kinds were experienced. Discreet. Typically one night stands. A few ended in short-lived contracts to keep things quiet. Never lasting more than a few weeks. A month had been the longest.
I hadn't wanted to start something with this valet. I could tell he wasn't one to crave that type of situation. He seemed like the kind who wanted more. Who deserved honesty. Dependability. Anything but what I had to offer.
