“Yes, and you can even join those words together with other words like thank you very much, please may I have, I was wondering if you could please… You get the idea.” I nod my head.

He runs his forefinger across his bottom lip before asking, “Anything else to add to my lesson?”

“Nope, I think that covers it.” I head out of his office, and I swear I hear him calling me a smartass under his breath, which makes me smile.

Another three weeks? Just watch me last longer than that.

If I was fired up before, it’s nothing in comparison to how I feel now and I’m more than ready to prove him wrong. He’ll soon discover I’m not one to back down.

Challenge accepted, Mr. Hart.

I give my ass an extra wiggle, because I know he watches me when he thinks I can’t see him. But I see him in the reflection of the glass panels, through them too, following my every move.

He’s forgetting who has the power here. It’s me.

And I bet he’s imagining what it would feel like to place his hands on my hips and down over my curves again.

Tempted, Mr. Hart?

I look back over my shoulder to find his gaze lowered and eating me up with his eyes.

I swear to fuck, if no one was around, I’d be storming after her, bending her over her desk and giving her ass a good spanking for speaking to me the way she just did.

Manners?

Is she for real?

There is no way I’m letting her get away with that.

I pick up my phone and send a text to the group chat with my brothers.

Finish up, we’re going for drinks at The Golden Spirit.

It’s where everyone in the building seems to go after work to decompress and it’s where Joseph said he is taking Arianna. I know this because not only am I a master at working people out, I can also hear a pin drop from a hundred meters away.

The words she said to Joseph make my grip around my cell tighten.

Not into older men.

I’ll show her old.

Cole

Are you sick?

Me

No.
