 Lex POV

I don't know why it was so satisfying to see her crawl back to me. It gave me a burst of power but also genuinely happy to see her. At the same time it gnawed at me that I cared so much to have her around. 

"Follow me. I want you to meet with Staci, my secretary. But like I said, we have to get rid of that atrocious dress. Why did you come in here dressed like that?!" I scolded, but I couldn't help but notice how good her legs looked. 

Lex, focus!

She blushed, "Um, I didn't have anything else to where. And my stupid brother-"

"Let's not talk about him." I growled as I clenched my fist. The mere thought of him pissed me off.

"Um, okay...." She said as she crossed her arms following me.

We boarded the elevator to go to the 10th floor which was filled with many department stores. She had to get out of those clothes and ASAP. My mind started to fill with thoughts of her in the nude. I growled to keep myself settled. 

"Are you okay?" She asked slightly confused. For the past few floors it's been silent between us. The air was thick and I was suddenly aware of her presence. 

She smelled so good, a combination of lavender and vanilla. Her plump lips were tempting. 

"Lex?" She whispered one more time in her damn cute ass voice. Before I could contain myself I pushed her against the elevator wall and crushed my lips against her. She tasted so good and I needed more. I greedily kissed her lips for as long as I could before I feel her push away.

Her eyes were wide as she grabbed her hands and shielded her lips. I was recovering from the shock as I realized her hand was going towards my face. 

I grabbed her arm to stop the contact.

I smirked, "Now Rachel, don't say that wasn't as good for you as it was for me. Because I know it was." I whispered into her ear. She pushed back against, her cheeks a deep crimson pink.

"Sh-shut up! You jerk, that was my first kiss!"

My eyes widened in shock, "You-you've never been kissed!?"

"You've ruined me!" She started to tear up, "That was supposed to be saved for my first love!"

I scoffed, "Love?! What does kissing have to do with love?!"

"Everything you idiot!" She shouted right as the doors opened to the elevator. We arrived to the 10th floor. Everybody on the 10th floor stared at us. I grabbed her shoulder and started walking out with her by my side.

"Sorry everybody, my little girlfriend here just got her monthly visitor." I explained. A few people just smiled as the rest looked plain uncomfortable.

Rachel elbowed me, "What the heck." She said under her breath, "You don't just tell strangers I'm on my period!"

"Hey! How else can I explain your emotional outburst?" I whispered back. She pushed away wiped her tears.

"For a CEO you're so stupid, you know that?" She laughed.

I laughed back. It made me happy to know she wasn't mad any longer. Why was I so relieved?

"Let's just find you an outfit." I said as I led her to a Bloomingdale's. 

"Hey it's expensive here..." She explained.

"Oh really? I didn't know that." I mocked. I led her to the women's section and grabbed her a short but professional dress I liked. It was grey polyster dress with black leather trimmings. I grabbed a size 2 and gave it her. 

"It's kind of short she explained." 

"It's as short as your golden cocktail dress..." I pointed out. The sight of gold just made me sick. The sooner she was out of those clothes the better.

"But this is meant for clubbing."

"Yet you wore it while asking for a job." I scolded.

"Fine!" She grunted as she made her way towards the dressing room. I instructed an employee to grab the same dress in different colors, as well as many other outfits that would fit the same motif. They complied easily. 

"This dress is 495$$!!!!" She screamed as she came out with the back unzipped.

"And?" I said confused.

"I-I-I can't afford this!"

"Who said you were buying it?" I asked.

"Wh-what?!" She said.

I grabbed her and turned her around. I zipped her up as I used one of my fingers to trace along her skin. I felt her shiver at my touch. I grabbed her by her shoulders and put her closer to me. 

"If you wanted me to zip you up, you could of just asked." I whispered against her neck.

She stiffened. It amused me how much she reacted to my touch. 

"Now go back in there and try out all the clothes." I commanded. She just nodded and quickly complied. 

'This is starting to get interesting.' I thought.

I brought back Rachel to the floor of my office. She had multiple bags of clothes with her. She whispered a small thank you to me which made me smile.

As we got back to my office, I saw Staci at her desk. I went up to her and said, "Please orient Miss Rachel here. She will start working here tomorrow. She'll work for me when you're not here."

"But I work here 7 days a week." Staci said in a panic.

"Oh that's right, start taking some days off. Rachel will handle it." I said indifferently.

"But, I don't need days off."

"That is not a suggestion, it is an order." I gritted my teeth.

"As you wish sir." She said, disappointment lacing her voice.

"Alright, I'll be back in a few hours. I have a meeting to attend to." I say as I turn my back towards the exit and see Rachel looking around. I resist the urge to kiss Rachel goodbye. It's not like we're dating. Get it together Lex.
