My confidence and mood blossomed when I looked in the mirror this morning as I got ready. I went with a more natural look, forgoing alot of makeup, which suited me fine. I blew out my hair, pulled it up into a high updo on the top of my head, and then I slipped on my favorite Chanel slacks with a white blouse and Prada pumps.

Despite the fact that I barely went shopping for maternity wear yet, I was rocking this outfit; small baby bump and all.

I knew that I was in over my head going up against Max's order to stay home and rest.
But I was fed up with resting. I needed action. Even more since after calling his office and she answered.
I didn't have the temperament to just sit around and do nothing. So I grabbed my keys and called Wilson.

Pulling up to Chase Industries, I stepped out of the car with Wilson's help. I was no fool to the fact that I was on borrowed time going in without him actually calling Max to give him the heads up that I was here.
And the moment the elevator doors opened, grey eyes sternly looked at me and I felt my heart swell.
He was pissed and downright stunning.

He looked like he just walked off the front cover of GQ . He was sharply dressed in a dark navy suit, a light blue pinstripe shirt, and a dark blue tie.

On our way up, I made it very clear that im not giving in so easily. I had to batten down the hatches on my nervousness.

When we finally reached the 20th floor, I hadn't considered where I'd be working from, and just casually made my way to Max's office.

Suddenly, dead ahead of me, was the bitch who had managed to get under my skin like no woman before her has.
Scratch that...
She is the 2nd.

Rebecca, the red headed bimbo - assistant. Her bright pearly white smile was nauseating, fake and overplayed, just like her.

"Good morning, Max. Don't you look sharp this morning?"

Hello!, I'm here as well dumb bitch.

"Thanks, Rebecca." He smiled then turn to look at me. "Do you think you can show my wife to the spare office next to mine? She will be assisting me today," I looked at Max in shock.

I didn't know that he had a spare office and I really, really didn't want to be led there by this cheap looking Jessica Rabbit knock off.
She threw me a dumb smile and I gave her my most fakest one yet.

"I have an office?" I turned to him and beamed triumphantly. He stepped closer and slowly laced his fingers behind the nape of my neck and gave me a kiss on the lips, which I enjoyed to the fullest.

"Of course. Unless you prefer sitting on my lap all day? Which I won't object to that," He held my gaze for a silent moment as I shook my head, and then he gave me a teasing ear to ear grin.

He's impossible...

"On second thought, scratch taking her to her office, Rebecca, she can just join me in mine." The unwavering lustful dared me to object. And I did. He wasn't going to lure me in so easily into his seductive web.

I nudged him with my elbow and he lowered his lips to my ears pulling me close. "You can make my wildest dreams come true, bare and spread eagle on my couch as I work." His rumbled request and the sensation of his teeth nipping my ear, sent a rush of warmth between my legs. It felt totally inappropriate here, but I loved him so much, the PDA didn't matter. Especially not infront of her. Our flirtatious moment was broken with a few short words.

"Aren't you two sweet? Rebecca said. We both looked at her, as Max slowly pulled away before he kissed my forehead.

"Well, I have to get somethings done today. It's gonna be hectic with meetings and conference calls," he murmured grazing his finger gently along my jaw.
