“Hello Ruby.” We halted at her desk.

She rose, then scurried toward us. “It’s so good to see you, Mr. Daughtry. This must be Ms. Riley.”

She wrapped her arms around Kara. “Nice to meet you.”

“It’s a pleasure to meet you too.”

Ruby stepped back. A smile was plastered across her brown face.

“Mr. Daughtry has never brought a woman to the office. God, you’re beautiful.”

She blushed. “Please call me Kara.”

“Ok. I was instructed to help you find new dresses. If it’s all right, I can come by around nine in the morning?”

Kara released my hand. “Yes, that’s fine. Can you ensure there’s a mix of casual wear too?”

“Absolutely.” She winked.

I felt eyes burning a hole in my back.

“Is Bryce in yet?”

She glanced at her watch. “He should arrive in five minutes.”

“Ask him to step into my office once he gets in.”

“Will do.”

I led Kara into my office.

“What a view.” She gravitated to the floor to ceiling window.

Kara tugged at the diamond studded earrings. My arms wrapped around her waist and my chin rested on top of her head.

“You don’t like the earrings?”

“Collin, I told you I love them. They’re just so expensive. Sterling silver earrings would have been fine. I’m afraid I’ll lose them.”

“Kara, don’t worry about it.”

“Ok.” She turned in my arms. “We didn’t make love this morning.” Her eyes searched mine.

“I’m trying to have some sort of self-control.”

She laughed and her head fell against my chest. “I think we’re screwed. Stroking your cock this morning crossed my mind.”

My lips tipped up at one end. “That would have been perfect.” I pointed over my shoulder toward my desk.

“I’d be happy to lay you across my desk and watch my cock slide in and out of that good fucking pussy.” My lips fell against hers.

“I want that, Collin,” she murmured.

Heavy knuckles fell upon the open door. “I see you’re back.”

Shit, Bryce had perfect timing.

I turned, releasing Kara.
