I wasn’t sure why, but I wanted to add that she could stay late any night. Never once had I even thought that for any of my assistants, but something about Olivia made me want to be more like Stefan. It was wrong. I knew that. I’d worked damned hard to make Club X a success, and that didn’t include fucking around with the people who worked under me. Our lawyers had enough on their plates dealing with the problems Stefan’s libido caused for us. I didn’t need to add to them.
Olivia staring at me jarred me from my daydreaming. Quickly, I pulled the contract toward me to pretend to examine it, giving myself time to regain my composure. After a few moments, I looked up and said, “If there are no other questions, you can begin tomorrow. Sound good?”
Nodding, she smiled like she was relieved. “That sounds great. Thank you so much for the opportunity. I’m looking forward to learning all about Club X.”
She extended her hand to shake mine, and I enjoyed the warm and welcoming feel of her skin. As I escorted her out, I couldn’t help but notice she really was quite stunning.
Maybe hiring her wasn’t such a good idea.
I watched her wave back at me as she opened the door to head out into the sun and heard Kane behind me mutter, “She’s a lot different from Kate. Are we going to lose her when she gets married too?”
The last sight of Olivia faded as the door closed, and I shook my head as I continued to stare at where she’d just stood. “I don’t know. I didn’t bother to find out if she was with anyone.”
I heard him turn away as he said, “Maybe you should have.”

By midnight, I was ready for a diversion. A full night of my mind wandering to my new assistant when I should have been hard at work had been frustrating, and I wanted nothing more than to start acting like myself again. Cassian March didn’t spend hours fantasizing about any woman, especially one of his employees, no matter how hot she was. Thankfully, it didn’t take much to make the real man I was come back again.
My phone rang as I drove back to my condo providing me with exactly the distraction I needed to get my mind off Olivia. Pulling into my parking spot, I picked up my phone to see Cheri calling, as if the Universe had seen me acting like some oversexed boy and sent her to remind me of exactly what I was.
“Cash, it’s Cheri. What are you doing, baby?” she cooed into the phone.
“Just getting home.”
“I can be there in fifteen minutes. Why don’t you take a shower, don’t bother with putting clothes back on, and have a glass of Cab Sav waiting for me?”
The memory of my last time with Cheri sent a jolt through my body, making my cock stiffen in anticipation. Blond hair, blue eyes, and nearly six foot with legs that seemed to go on forever, she was built like she’d been made especially to please a man. A little vapid, she didn’t offer much in the brain department, but then again, I wasn’t looking for an intellectual discussion tonight. I really didn’t give a damn about what she thought about much of anything. What I wanted tonight was someone to fill up the spaces in my mind occupied with fantasies I shouldn’t have with the reality I could easily have again and again.
Thinking Cheri’s offer was exactly what I needed, I closed my eyes and still said, “I don’t know. It’s been a long day.”
The phone fell silent and I could almost hear her pouting. I pictured her perfectly shaped lips brushing against her cell phone as she considered what words she needed to say to convince me.
“Cash, you know you want to. I can hear it in your voice. You’re dying for something to take the edge off after a long day running that club of yours. Don’t deny it.”
“You’re very persuasive, Cheri, but I don’t know. Maybe I just want to relax tonight.”
“Baby, in fifteen minutes, I can be there and you can be feeling like you haven’t felt since the last time we were together.”
Any other woman saying that would sound ridiculous, but when Cheri promised a night of pleasure, I knew she’d deliver. The girl was one-of-a-kind. Running my free hand over the front of my pants, I closed my eyes and remembered the last time we were together. If it was possible, my cock grew even harder at the memory of her on all fours and me fucking her from behind on my balcony. Never a quiet lay, she took it to the next level that night, screaming my name over and over as she came. My neighbors must have loved that show. Thankfully, I couldn’t make it to the next condo association meeting. Taking a deep breath, I said, “I’ll leave the door unlocked. Let yourself in.”
She quietly moaned. “And do you know what I’m in the mood for tonight, Cash?”
I could only imagine. Cheri’s sexual appetites tended toward the wilder side compared to most of the women I knew, with role play one of her favorite pastimes. While I normally enjoyed the idea of tying her up or her in that schoolgirl outfit she liked to wear, I wasn’t sure I wanted anything that involved tonight. I wanted to fuck Olivia out of my system, not put on some sex show. Some nights just called for the basics, and tonight was one of those nights.
Turning off my car, I stretched my legs at the thought of what she might want. “I have no idea.”
“I’ve been aching to fuck you in your shower again. Do you remember that time? My legs were tired all the next day. I don’t think I’ve ever had sex for that long in my life.” Her voice practically purred in my ear.
The time she and I fucked in my shower I nearly blacked out from the sex. The woman knew how to fuck, no doubt. I hadn’t planned on doing anything that required that much exertion tonight, but if this was what the Universe was sending me, who was I to turn it down?
As the memory of Cheri riding my cock until the two of us practically melted into an exhausted heap of sated flesh danced through my mind, I made my way toward my place, thankful the Universe knew me so well.
“Be here in fifteen, but I think we’ll have a replay of our time on my couch instead. And don’t be late or I’ll find someone else to spend my time with,” I said sharply, not exactly teasing. Cheri liked a strong hand to guide her, and I was more than happy to oblige.
Only a fool would turn down such a gift.
Chapter Three
Olivia
“I can’t believe you guys never told me about Club X! What am I? The ugly stepsister?” I said jokingly while I handed Josie and Erin glasses of wine as we settled in for a night of celebration for my new job.
“We did. Don’t you remember?” Erin said in their defense. “It was that time when Jake offered to help us all get memberships.”
