Bossy (An Office Romance #1)(12)



His fingers threaded through my hair, his nails scraping against my scalp as he forced our foreheads against one another's.

“I’m crazy about you Sadie. Fucking crazy. The feelings I have for you I’ve never felt for anyone else. I’ve never experienced love Sadie. I’ve never felt that racing feeling run through my body every time I see someone. I’ve never f*cking wanted to drop down to my knees and eat a * like I want to yours.” His honesty, and dirty words caused a shiver to run down my spine.

“I want you. I want you all the time. In me. On me. I want to be with you.” The words I spoke came from the heart and I could feel each one resonating through me as I stared deeply into his eyes as I spoke.

I was consumed by this man, owned by him, and there wasn’t a moment in my life that I wanted to go forward with, without him.

“Good, because I’m never leaving. I’m never letting you run. Not now. Not ever. You’re mine Sadie Walker. Mine.” His teeth sank into the bottom of my lip as he thrust his hips into my core. All I could feel was him, his body taking control of mine. All I felt was him, all I tasted was him. All that mattered was him.

“Sadie, do you want to go with us to Jose’s Mexican for lunch with the rest of the staff?” Maddie the new intern asked, ripping me from my erotic dream far too soon. I glared at her for a moment, before adjusting my facial expression.

“Uhh thank you but no. I'm swamped with paperwork. Sorry." I smiled but I could tell Maddie wasn’t buying it.

"It's buy one get one Margaritas, Sadie." Maddie smiled trying to convince me to leave the office.

"Drink some for me. I'm swamped, Maddie. I have to get this paperwork in by the end of the day, and although Mexican sounds great I just don’t have the time.” Trying to sound down about something when you really weren’t was harder than expected. I was lying through my teeth and I’m sure Maddie could see that that's exactly why she would make a great lawyer someday.

Maddie rolled her eyes, as if she didn’t believe me, “Whatever. I’ll bring you something back then.” She shot over her shoulder before walking away, to gather more employees for lunch.

With Maddie out of the way, I lifted my eyes to Cameron’s office door. The need to be close to him was consuming me. I needed to be near him, by body begged for his touch and my heart pleaded to hear his voice.

“I need those paper’s stat…” Then I heard his voice and my entire body lit up like a Christmas tree. I was drawn to him my eyes honing in on him across the office. Why I hadn’t realized he was out on the office floor I didn’t know, it probably had something to do with Maddie.

Cameron's eyes found mine in the crowd of workers, and a ghost of a smile lingered on his lips. He looked good enough to eat today and I wanted nothing more than to sink my teeth into him.

“Yes sir. I’m working on it.” Garret the employee he was talking to responded. Cameron lingered at his desk for a moment before he headed back into his office, a look on his face that told me I should leave my panties at the door.

I fidgeted in my seat, unable to focus on a damn thing but that man. My thoughts since the day he had called me into office always revolved around him. Then his text message from the night before where he told me all he could think about was me, made me wonder how much he missed me? What he was doing, and who he was with? Was he thinking about me too? Touching himself at the thought of me naked next to him?

“You sure you don’t want to come Sadie?” Maddie’s sultry voice met my ears as she called out from across the office. A large group of our co-workers were huddled around her.

“I’m sure.” I shot her down again. I knew what it was that I would be doing, better yet who I would be doing during lunch.

“Your loss.” She shrugged heading towards the elevator. Everyone she had gathered from our floor followed behind her leaving merely a handful of us behind.

I sat at my desk for a few moments, waiting for the perfect time to pounce. My legs wobbled, and my belly filled with butterflies as my heels clicked against the marble floor.

I stopped just outside his door, there was no one watching me from what I could see. Should I knock or just walk in?

“She’ll never find out Cameron…” I had pushed the door open a smidge, catching the words just as they left Dawn’s mouth.

“Catch what?” I pushed the door open all the way, making myself known. I couldn’t unsee the things that were going on right before me. Dawn was stripped down to nothing but her blouse standing directly in front of Cameron. The man I had wanted to claim as my own up until thirty seconds ago.

"Sadie…" I could hear the fear in Cameron's voice, and the grief-stricken look on his face. Dawn turned around, her legs spread wide open, a gleeful smile on his face. I could feel the tears stinging at the back of my eyes, but refused to let these two people see that pain they had caused me.

“Oh for the love of God. You didn’t actually think he only slept with one of us did you?” Dawn’s words were as bad as a slap to my cheek. The pain of what she said ripped through me.

“Shut the f*ck up Dawn. You’re such a liar.” The growl that ripped from Cameron’s throat vibrated through me. He stood from his desk with purpose as he plucked Dawn’s skirt up off the floor and flung it at her.
