Never, in any dimension, would I have expected my arrogant boss to utter any words to turn me on. Much less anything that contained "little girl" in them. I hoped he hadn't seen the way my cheeks tinged pink, the way my legs grew closer together to create some friction. Surely, he would fire me, even if the words articulated were said by he himself. Having such a reaction to my boss was highly unprofessional and I needed to keep myself in check. I swallowed thickly, muttering an apology for my apparent disrespect. "Look at me when I'm talking to you." He demanded, and so I did. I wasn't sure, though, whether it was my need to not be fired or the dominant aura that seemed to flow off of him that made me abide. I need to keep my job, I repeated in my head. I need to, I need to, I need to. But he was making it very, very difficult.

Socially awkward software engineer Allie isn't looking for romance when she moves to New York City to escape her insufferable ex and start over. But then she meets Dacian, her dominant, bad-boy neighbor, who makes her feel things she's never experienced before. She's helplessly drawn to him despite his dark side... or perhaps because of it. Dacian isn't looking for complication in his life. His traumatic past has left him resolved to avoid dating, but when Allie stumbles into his life and makes him feel things again, he quickly finds himself devolving into obsession with her despite his best efforts to keep her at bay. The chemistry between them is undeniable, but can Dacian overcome his past to secure a future worth living? Or will his demons destroy his one chance at happiness? ********* "You are the most arrogant, self-centered, callous asshole - " She abruptly cut off as Dacian approached until he stood directly in front of her, and then leaned both hands on the wall to either side of her head. The brick was cold against her back but she could feel Dacian's body heat radiating toward her. "Wh-what are you doing?" she stammered. "Waiting for you to keep telling me how much you dislike me," he murmured, staring at her mouth like it was a glass of water and he was parched. ********* Ranked #3 in Dominance on 01/28/2023 [[word count: 70,000 - 80,000 words]]

He slowly backs up until his back is against the wall like my own, "You're..my neighbor?" He points to my door and I nod my head quickly. He hums softly, "You been here a while?" He asks and I nod my head once again. He chuckles, "Ya head hurt?" I nod again but stop as he laughs softly, "I-I mean.. no.. it doesn't." My cheeks burn red as I look at my shoes, "I-It doesn't hurt.." I repeat like a dummy and listen to him clear his throat, "So do you actually live there or was it bull?" He nods to my door and I play with my fingers, "Yeah.. I do.." I feel his eyes watch me and I quickly stop. "You live with your boyfriend or do you like sweatshirts that reach your knees?" He teased, making a giggle slip past my lips. I look away to the floor again, "I-I like big shirts... a lot." I mumble softly and he nods his head, "Hol' up." He puts his box down before walking over to one of the grey bins. I nosily watch as he pulls out a big grey sweatshirt, "Here." He holds it out for me to take and I stare at him with wide eyes, "F-For me?" I hesitantly grab the soft fabric as he chuckles, "Nah for ya mom." I puff my cheeks a little and give him a small glare, "Hush." He leans back against the wall and shakes his head, "It's cold out. You should put it on." ____________________________ She was a shy girl from the city with no spine and a list of problems so long that it could touch the floor and roll off her shoes.
