My Boss Next Door

Chapter 6

Alexander

As I stepped into the office, I felt the familiar weight of responsibility settling on my shoulders. Today's presentation for Project Catalyst was crucial, not just for the board but for me personally. With my father retiring and me stepping into the role of CEO, I knew I needed to demonstrate that I was capable of steering this company in the right direction.

I quickly scanned the room, looking for my team. My gaze landed on Clara, who was coordinating with her staff, her energy palpable. But it was Eva who caught my attention. She was seated at her desk, focused on her work, and I couldn't help but admire how determined she looked. Her dark hair fell softly around her shoulders, and when she glanced up, I felt a jolt of recognition—she had that same spark that intrigued me before. 

"Okay, everyone, let's make sure we're all set for the presentation," Clara announced, and I watched as the team shifted into gear. Eva's expression changed as she took in the urgency of the moment, but there was something captivating about her dedication. I found myself leaning in closer, wanting to hear her thoughts and insights on the project.

"Eva, can you please give us an overview of the presentation once everyone is gathered?" Clara asked, bringing my focus back to the meeting at hand.

"Of course," she replied, her voice steady despite the tension in the room. There was something about her confidence that drew me in, and I found myself wanting to know more about her beyond the surface.

She's just fucking perfect.  While she took a pause between the slides, she pressed her lips together, and my gaze inadvertently dropped to her mouth. Lush, pink, and capable of more sass than any other woman I met so far would. there's nothing proper about the thoughts running through my mind.

It was the worst possible time for me to be thinking about anything remotely related to sex. We are in a middle of a presentation for Christ's sake. But work's adrenaline and arousal had always gone hand in hand for me, and if I were honest, there were very few instances when she didn't turn me on, I wanted her all of her every inch of her body, lips, breast, nipples hips and her pussy. I want to Fuck her out of her mind until she screams my name. 

My cock thickened, and my hands clenched into fists, I have the most beautiful woman on the planet standing in front of me. I couldn't shake the feeling that I was supposed to be focusing on the presentation, but my thoughts kept drifting back to her.

"Before I dive into the details, I'd like to hear from Eva," I said, my voice cutting through the chatter. The room quieted, and I could see Eva's eyes widen in surprise. "What are your thoughts on Project Catalyst, especially given your work on the preliminary analysis?"

She hesitated for a moment, her cheeks slightly flushed as she registered that I was addressing her directly in front of the entire team. I could feel the interest in the room shift toward her, and I silently hoped this wasn't putting too much pressure on her.

"Uh, well..." she began, gathering her thoughts. "I believe Project Catalyst has immense potential. The market analysis indicates that we're positioned to meet a significant demand, and if we can leverage our current resources effectively, we could outperform our competitors." Her confidence began to shine through as she spoke, and I found myself hanging onto her every word.

"I also think we should consider integrating more innovative marketing strategies to attract a broader audience. We want to create not just a product, but an experience," she added, her passion evident in her tone.

I nodded, impressed by her insights. "Great points, Eva. I appreciate your perspective on the marketing strategies, especially as we look to enhance our brand image." I could see her relax a little, encouraged by my acknowledgment.
