Bossy (An Office Romance #1)(13)

“You’re f*cking fired Dawn. Fired. Get the f*ck out.” He ordered and I wanted to believe that he meant the things he was saying to Dawn that he was really firing her but a part of me, the part of me that I didn’t want to pay any attention to told me that maybe it was all an act. Maybe I was the one being played, and that hurt more than anything else he could say.

“Don’t stop on my account.” I held a hand up, turning on my heels. I could hear Cameron swearing under his breath but I didn’t care. All I could feel was the pain of discovering that I wasn’t the one, but merely another one. Another bimbo that fell into the trap, that thought maybe she could be loved by the millionaire.

“Sadie!” Cameron’s voice cracked as he scurried from his office on unsteady feet, drawing the attention of the few employees left behind in the office. Except it was too late, I had already grabbed my purse and keys from my desk. I had no intention of staying here and looking like a fool in front of everyone. The way Dawn smiled at me as she was stripped bare in front of the man I possibly loved would forever remain in my mind.

“Don’t.” I could feel the tears threatening to come and I knew then I needed to get away from him. I needed to go home and shower, and try and wash away the dirtiness that lingered against my skin.

Cameron’s shoulders sagged as he stood before me, not moving, or flinching even as I pressed the button for the elevator. Unsaid words, feelings, and pain filled the space between us as I stepped into the elevator. Sadness flickered in his beautiful blue eyes and as soon as I stepped into the elevator and the doors started to close I realized just how much the truth of what I discovered hurt me.

The tears I had been holding back slipped from my eyes and down my cheeks, my chest heaved, and leaned against the wall.

I had loved him. I had given him a piece of myself that I hadn’t given anyone else in such a short amount of time and it had come to bite me in the ass.

When I finally hit the lobby floor I wiped away any stray tears and walked out the front doors of Jefferson Law Office, wondering if I would ever see Cameron Jefferson again.





Chapter Eight


Rage. It wasn’t an emotion I felt often but was the only feeling I could feel as a week without Sadie in my life flew by. I had tried every single f*cking thing short of showing up at her house unannounced to get her back. I saved that one for last because I couldn’t stomach being turned down by this woman in person. If she told me to leave I would. If she told me to drop down to my knees and beg for her forgiveness I would.

I had done nothing wrong. I hadn’t touched Dawn and never would. What Sadie saw she refused to let me explain and here I sat in a f*cking sour mood, angry at everyone because I missed her. I f*cking missed her.

"Sir you have a meeting with the Lowe case today at three." Laura my new assistant who was a sixty-year woman yelled into the loudspeaker of my phone.

I slammed a fist down on my desk in anger, because the only f*cking person I wanted to talk to right now was the one person who refused to take my calls.

"Cancel it. Cancel all my afternoon meetings. Hell, cancel all tomorrow's too." I seethed. I had to sort this shit out with Sadie. I had to get her to come back to work and show everyone here that she was my forever and that anything I had ever shared with them was in the past, and nothing but a fling.

“Sir….” I couldn’t miss the astonishment in Laura’s voice.

"Do it," I growled hanging up the phone before I made a bigger mistake and fired her too, simply for irritating me further. I had one f*cking agenda. One. Win Sadie back and have her become my new assistant. I couldn't let her slip through my fingers not again. I pulled my phone from my pocket and pulled up her number, then I pressed the message icon and type out the message I wanted to send.



Cameron: Be ready, with no panties. I’m coming to explain what happened and I refuse to take no for an answer. You’re mine, and your * is mine.



I hit send, and then adjusted my cock in my pants. I was taking as much time off as I needed too. I was going to do whatever the f*ck I could to win her back, even if it meant I had to fire people, or miss a few weeks of work. I would lay in bed devouring her * everyday begging for her forgiveness with every dip of my tongue deep inside of her until she gave into my advances and excepted that she was mine. All the texts I had sent previously had went unanswered. The flowers I sent her were sent back. I had given her time.

Gripping my car keys in my hand I left the office, taking the elevator to the parking garage every step I took had a purpose. I unlocked the car, slid into the front seat, and started the BMW pulling out of the spot faster than necessary.

Then I sped like a bat out of hell in the direction of Sadie’s house, only slowing down for the stoplights. Uneasiness burned through me. I couldn’t think of what would happen if she did say no, if she refused to accept my apology. I hated the fact she thought I had hooked up with Dawn while I was with her. That I had wanted more than what she could offer.

I gripped the steering wheel harder, the leather biting into my flesh. I wanted to take the pain I knew she was feeling away. I wanted to make everything between us okay, because when she was okay, I was okay. When she was soaring I was soaring. Whatever emotion she was feeling I was too.

I didn’t care that I had only known her a short time. I didn’t care that I was her boss. All that mattered was that I could take her into my arms again, to taste her sweetness against my tongue. I needed her as much as she needed me. Without each other we were miserable.
