Dirty Deeds (An Office Romance #2)(9)



“You should be good to go now, but you really need to watch the air in these tires okay?” I boasted, damn proud of myself for helping her out. I was so focused on my growing ego that I wasn’t paying attention to where my hand was. Suddenly it caught on a sharp piece of the frame. I could feel the metal slice into my flesh, but the pain didn’t register until I was standing directly in front of Chloe.

“Oh my God, you’re bleeding.” A shriek ripped from her throat as she released the flat tire and I watched curiously as she ducked into the back seat frantically searching for something. Moments later she reappeared with what looked like a small towel.

“It’s nothing sweetheart, just a small cut.” I assured her. I didn’t feel any pain but still she held the towel to my hand like my life depended on it. While she babies me, I lean in and inhale her sweet scent, letting it fill my lungs.

“I’m so sorry. I’ve been such a bitch to you, and all you’ve done is help me.” Defeat resonated from within her and I felt this desperate need to let her know that I wasn’t going anywhere no matter what she said.

“It’s really okay, Chloe. I like you. All of this, the job, your tire, they’re nothing in comparison to just being in your presence. There’s something special about you.” I watched as a blush crept across her cheeks and I can’t help but think about how sexy she looked when her whole body was rosy red. The way her ass cheeks looks as I slapped them. Fuck I hope I get the chance to have her naked and panting for me again.

“Now can we go get a beer because I really need one.” I questioned, my eyes lingering on hers. My shirt was dirty, my hand had been bleeding and sweat was covering my body. But being this close to Chloe, seeing her walls come down around me was everything, and not a damn thing was going to take me away from spending as much time with her as I could. No one..Not even herself.

I could practically see her pulse jump in her throat as I reached out and took a hold of her hand. With a nod of her head she took a step back away from me, trying to roll the flat to the back of the car. I stopped her and placed it inside the trunk along with the jack and tire iron.

“Good…” I started. “I know a bar just a couple blocks from here that has the best cheese fries and beer around. Come on.” I gestured towards my car, but Chloe didn’t move an inch. I still had the towel wrapped around my once bleeding palm but I desperately wanted to reach for her hand again. I just needed the contact with her.

“Before I take a step towards your car, and get in it, and head to this bar with you I need to know that you don’t consider this a date?” I blinked slowly, a chuckle of deep laughter erupted from my chest.

“Let’s go, Chloe. If this was a date, you can bet your sweet ass I wouldn’t be taking you to some dive bar down the road.” I finished, fighting the urge to grab her hand once again and lead her to my car. Instead I walk off across the parking lot, knowing she is right behind me because of the loud click of her heels against the concrete. I slide into the drivers seat just as she’s opening the passenger side door.

“Wow, this is nice!” She exclaims, her plump ass gliding across the rich leather seat. An image of her riding my dick in the front seat of this car enters my mind almost immediately.

Fuck. I need a cold shower and a bottle of whiskey, STAT.

“Thanks, it was the very first car I bought myself when my father handed the company over to me five years ago.” I didn’t like delving into my family life, or anything too personal with my employees, but Chloe was different, God was she ever f*cking different.

I removed the towel from my hand and examined the cut, it was just as I said, a tiny abrasion, no worse than a cat scratch. Placing the key into the ignition, I threw the car in reverse pulling out of the parking spot and out of the parking garage.

“So you acquired Nelson Industries at the ripe old age of twenty one?” She questioned. It dawned on me then that she wouldn’t know my age unless she asked Cameron and Sadie or did a Google search.

I watched her out of the corner of my eye as we came to a stop at a red light. “Are you trying to say that you Stalked me before we met?” I smirked, watching her cheeks warm. I love that shade of red on her face.

“I… I may have done some searching but it wasn’t like I was really stalking you or trying to get some dirt on you. I mean….” She stumbled over her words nervously. “I wanted to know the man I was hopefully going to be working for. You know, before Sadie decided to ask Cameron for a favor.” Her honesty astonished me. It also made my cock hard, hard as a rock.

In a matter of mintues we were pulling into a parking spot next to the bar. I put the car in park then killed the engine. As I shifted my body towards hers, I looked her straight in the eye. The space between us grew hot and the need to touch her almost overtook me. Looking deeply into her eyes, I could see everything that made her who she was. She wore her heart on her sleeve and she was right, sleeping with me wasn’t something that was morally right in her soul but I wouldn’t let her regret it. Not now, not ever. Instead I would make her want more of it, more of me.

“Let’s get inside before I do something crazy like kiss you.” I sighed, knowing that I would have a hard on for the rest of the evening with this beautiful woman beside me.

“Yeah let’s, before I do something crazier and let you.” The words were barely audible or maybe I just failed to hear them over the erratic beat of my heart pounding in my ears. Yet I still couldn’t believe the words that had come out of her mouth.
