Eventually she pulls back, her breathing a little ragged and her eyes a little glazed.
“You okay,” I ask, smiling as I tuck a loose strand of hair behind her ear.
“You…that…” She pauses, letting out a hard breath.“You are the best boss I have ever had.”
Laughing, I press a kiss to the end of her nose.“You just saying that ’cause I really like giving you multiple orgasms?”
A smirk tugs at the corner of her mouth.“Well, that and you have a really big dick,” she teases, making me laugh again.“But seriously, Leo, that thing out there with the sauce.Thank you.No one has ever treated me with that much respect in the kitchen before.”
Hearing her say these words makes my heart flip.Not just because from a work perspective, this is exactly the kind of relationship I want to have with my staff.It’s also because it’shertelling me, it’sherrecognizing what I did and it’sherbeing grateful too.
It makes me realize how much I want her to see me as a great boss, as someone who treats his staff with respect.
Kind of makes me fall a little bit in love with her too, if I’m being honest.
Like you weren’t already half-way therea voice inside my head screams.
Shaking my head a little, I focus on the woman standing in front of me, the one now looking at me with a mix of amazement and something else.Something that makes my heart pound hard inside my chest.“You’re welcome,” I say, my words quiet.“You deserve it, Han.I’m not going to take credit for that.”
She pushes up on her toes to plant another hard kiss on my mouth, a kiss I wish could lead to more but can’t because right now we have a restaurant and a kitchen full of people to get back to.“You are so getting laid after work tonight,” she murmurs against my lips.
Chuckling, I slide a hand down to her ass, squeezing as I reply, “Don’t I always?”
Smirking, Hannah nips at my bottom lip.“Yeah, well tonight you’re getting laidhard.”
Grinning, I give her another quick kiss before turning her toward the door and smacking her on the ass.“Well, fuck, now I really can’t wait,” I say, my mouth at her ear.
She looks back at me over her shoulder, a sexy as hell grin on her face as she reaches back to rub her hand over my dick.“I better get back to work.As much as I’m sure I’d enjoy the punishment, I don’t wanna piss my boss off.”
Then she gives me a gentle squeeze before walking out without another word, leaving me standing in my office with a semi, wondering if it’s too soon to tell this woman that I love her.
Chapter Nineteen
Hannah
I swear to god this guy is working really hard to make me fall in love with him.After what happened yesterday in the kitchen, I’m having a hard time not blurting out that I am in love with him.It feels amazing to finally be respected in my career and to have a boss who sees all that I have to offer.I was beginning to believe my old boss when he said I was incompetent.Turns out, it was him all along.I fucking kick ass at this whole thing.
This is the first night I have off, but Leo is working.It feels weird not having him here with me, since we’ve basically spent every night together for the last few weeks.But a little time apart is good and it gives me an opportunity to send him a few sexy texts to get him through the night.
I send him a picture of my shower along with my dildo, all suctioned and ready to go.Of course, I add a couple of emojis to really drive the point home and in typical Leo fashion, he replies immediately.
Leo: Be at my house when I get home, Hannah.
Me: That feels a little bossy.
Leo: Be at my house when I get home, please.
Me: Dressed or undressed?
Leo: Is that really a question?
Me: I’ll see you later tonight.
I head over to my brother’s house to have dinner with him and Tessa.Even though I see him every Sunday for breakfast, we haven’t seen much else of each other, and I want to get the plans for Tessa’s baby shower nailed down.With the restaurant being closed, I have more free time making it the perfect opportunity to have the shower without me having to take off work.
I walk into Dylan’s place and there’s zero cooking going on which means he’s hoping I’ll make something.I get it though.When he does try to cook for me, I’m always hovering over his shoulder or telling him what to do or analyzing the meal while we’re eating.
It’s kind of understandable given my job, but I guess I don’t go around telling him how to bottle cider or invent… That reminds me, I have to tell Leo that story.Obviously under the pretense that he keep it a secret.Dylan is pretty quiet about that part of his life.
