“Well, it’s a wonder I can work at all, with the thoughts you put in my head.”

“So, you want me to be your innocent bookkeeper, your dirty nurse,andyour sultry concubine?”

“I want you to be myeverything.”

That idea appealed to her, too.

Boyd grinned, seeing her growing excitement at this game. Grasping her hand he tugged it down to his erection. “Make me come, Mabe. Right now.”

Well… they really did need to get a lot of work done. And clearly Boyd was in no condition to focus on anything but this. Acquiescence only seemed practical. He had to have motivation or they’d never get anywhere. What else could a reasonable woman do, really?

Mabel unfastened his pants with a longsuffering sigh. “This was not in my job description, when you hired me.”

“Oh, there’s all kinds of extra services you’ll need to perform, now that I’ve inherited your perfect little body. I have a list in my head.” He pinned her to the wall, one hand coming up to cage her in. “You’re going to be checking items off, one by one, for the next sixty years.”

“Debauchery isn’t what Lew intended, when he left me to you.” She argued primly.

Boyd made a scoffing sound, like she was being naive. “That old man knew exactly what would happen, when I met you.” His eyes fluttered closed at the feel of her fingers, like he was trying to keep control and let her adjust to him. “He expected me to sling you over my shoulder and carry you right out of his house on Valentine’s Day.”

“You wouldn’t have…”

“Yes, I would’ve.” He interrupted. “The second Lew offered you to me, I would have taken you. I guarantee it.”

That was a very scandalous idea. And she didn’t hate it, at all. “You really think I would have let you do that?”

“I think you were meant to be mine and no one else’s.”

Mabel freed his turgid staff, her hand lightly tracing the length of him. He was very long. And thick. And unyielding as stone. She did some mental calculations. “I don’t see how you’re ever going to squeeze all that inside of me.”

“I’ll show you tonight.” He watched her manicured hand hesitantly dance across his hard flesh, like it fascinated him. Like he’d been picturing it in his head for months and he couldn’t quite believe it was actually happening. “I’m giving you time to reconcile with the idea that you belong to a bruiser from the docks. It’ll be a shock, I’m sure. You’re a classy lady.”

“That’s right. I am.” She began to explore him in earnest, relishing the feeling of power it gave her to see him so enflamed by her touch.

“So, I’ll wait until tonight to heck you raw, in every room of this fancy house that I bought for you.”

She licked her lower lip, turned on by his words and the roughness of his voice. “That’s very thoughtful, Mr. Cassiday.”

“You have about fourteen hours of virginity left, Miss Harrison. Enjoy it.” Boyd apparently felt he’d given her ample opportunity to grow accustomed to his naked member. His palm enveloped hers, demanding she grip him more firmly. “In the meantime, you have a backlog of six months to work through.”

She sent him a quick look. “No one but me has worked on this job, since we met?”

“Of course not. Who else could compare to you?” He showed her how to move her hand and his teeth clenched in agonized pleasure when she complied.

“Because I’m probably more possessive than you are, Boyd.” It was only fair to warn him. “You so much as smile at another girl and I won’t even bother to hide her body.”

“I know who I belong to.” His grin was smug. “Now, focus and get to work.”

Okay.

Mabel had always been a dedicated employee, so she applied herself to her new duties. “Tell me what you like.” She whispered.

“You.” He inhaled deeply, his whole chest expanding. “I likeyou, doll”

“What else? How hard do you…?” She let out a small gasp, as he helpfully guided her hand. “You want itthathard?”

“Yes.” The word was gritted out of him. “Just like that.”

Mabel was a high-achiever. She liked to be acknowledged for her superior abilities and dedication. Once she understood what Boyd wanted, she was willing to go above and beyond to surpass expectations. She wanted her very demanding employer happy and satisfied… and completely owned by her.
