Rose was finding it hard to focus for the rest of the day. Maybe she should have just stayed on Wayne’s lap and listened to him talk about his day. But she was the one who had insisted that she needed to get back to work.
Damn her for being so hardworking!But she was looking forward to their little date tonight. They had gone on a number of dates during their ‘relationship’ but this was going to be different.What was she going to wear?She really wanted to call Jessica and ask for her opinion. Maybe they could go shopping to get a new outfit for the date. The idea seemed like fun but she still wasn’t ready to tell anyone about what they had decided.Things were really different and she couldn’t exactly figure out why. It felt like she and Jessica had kinda drifted apart. If it had been in the past she would have shared the news as soon as possible. But she was bidding her time now.Maybe it was because a part of her noticed th“I.. I don’t understand.” Rose was looking at Wayne like he had gone crazy.She should have known that he had something like this up his sleeve. A part of her had thought that they were going for dinner a little early. But she had assumed that was because Wayne had other activities planned out.She didn’t think that it was because they had to fly to the venue!“We are going to board one of my private planes and go for our date.” Wayne repeated slowly in a teasing tone.“I heard you clearly the first time. Wayneeeeee we have work tomorrow, aren’t we going to be tired after with all the flying? I’m not trying to be a buzz kill and I’m sorry if I sound like one.” They would probably make it in time for work but they might be exhausted.“Well, I spoke to the boss and he said we can take the day off tomorrow; problem solved. Plus I don’t think you’re being a buzz kill.” Wayne grinned at her. He knew her well enough and had
Dinner was wonderful and Rose managed to make it through without any more tears of joy. She had such a lovely time with Wayne and it was the sweetest thing anyone had ever done for her. She was not surprised when they headed out to the most expensive hotel in the city; Midas’ Touch. Wayne was not one to settle for less than the best. True to its name, almost everywhere had some sort of golden decoration.They stepped into the reception and all the employees instantly snapped to attention.They had obviously been informed of their coming. It was still going to take a long time before Rose could get used to how people acted when Wayne entered a room and they knew who he was.A man approached them with a wide smile plastered on his face that reminded Wayne of Batman’s Joker. “Good evening Mr. Blackstone, Miss Cohen. My name is Nicholas Switzer and I am the concierge. Mr. Blackstone, we already received a call from your assistant
Rose had really enjoyed the trip to Springfield. They had stayed a day longer because Wayne had wanted to see places she had spent her time while growing up. They had driven past her middle school, high school, favorite café and so many other places.They had spent the extra night at Thomas’ house and Wayne had enjoyed it more than any hotel. He had seen Rose’s bedroom and all her cute pictures. Rose was almost the splitting image of her mother, but she had gotten her dad’s chestnut brown hair instead of Theresa’s dark one.Cooking in her mother’s kitchen was the happiest place he had ever seen her cook and he had been honored to be her assistant chef. Wayne had enjoyed every bit and of it and he had been happy to see Rose relax. Sometimes she worked so hard without taking any breaks and he liked seeing her rest. They could have spent a week but he knew that she would object.Who would have ever thought that he would end up with such a hard worke
“Eeeeeiiiiiiiiii.” Rose squealed in shock and dropped the letter like it was on fire.The Business Awards was the biggest event in the business world. It was basically an award night for businesses and people who had done great things or made visible impacts in their business sector. Getting an award was a massive accomplishment and bragging rights were certainly earned.It was strictly by invitation and held every year. Rose had assumed that she would probably be invited or tag along as Wayne’s plus one. Wayne was a regular there and had worn a number of awards since he had officially delved into the business world.Rose never expected that she would be attending the event as an actual nominee and was trying to make sure that no one was pulling an expensive joke on her; her heart wouldn’t be able to take something like that.She carefully picked up the letter and slowly read through so she wouldn’t miss a word. It looked authentic enough; it wasn
Patricia always felt this pulsating need between her thighs when she looked at Wayne. No man had ever made her run mad with pleasure like the way he did and she missed that. It had been a thrilling ‘friends with benefits’ situation and she would have preferred if it had lasted for a longer period.She had only been able to hold unto him for three months before they had parted ways. It had been his idea to break things off.He had apparently gotten tired of her and moved on to the next lucky lady and she resented that. She was the same age with Wayne and her father had been hinting for years how getting married to a man like Wayne would solidify a lifelong partnership.Patricia was not big on the idea of getting married but she supposed that she could do a hell lot worse than Wayne Blackstone. She was more concerned with having him in her bed than in the meeting room.Patricia wasn’t interested in anything exclusive. She was satisfied with just get
Rose allowed the letter from Business Today fall from her hands so she could freely touch Wayne’s chest. There was something urgent about their movements and they were naked in a few minutes. There was no time for a lot of foreplay and they let their primal instincts take charge.Wayne picked Rose up and she wrapped her legs around his waist. As soon as he was in, Wayne let out a growl which immediately tipped Rose over the edge. He didn’t let up as she gently trembled in his arms.He walked to the door at the right side of his office which led to a resting room and dropped her face down on the bed. Rose looked back at him with a lazy grin on her face; she knew that this was his favorite position.Twenty five minutes later and they lay back panting. This was the first time they had ever had sex in Blackstone Corp. Until a few minutes ago, they had managed to keep that particular extracurricular activity away from the office.Bu
Jessica was still upset with Rose for getting too close to her man so she had been keeping her distance for the past couple of weeks. Jessica had missed her but she had been spending more time with Winifred under the guise of brainstorming for opportunities to take down Rose.For Jessica, spending time with Winifred made her happy because it showed her the life she deserved and was trying to have. It was nice being surrounded with Winifred’s expensive things and exotic dishes. Jessica wished their friendship could go further and she would invite her for a sleepover.Things could kick off from there and maybe she would get to escort Winifred on trips to different countries. What was going on between her and Winifred was more of an alliance than a friendship. But there was still hope for that to change. She was looking for a stepping block and Winifred could be just that.She just needed a breakthrough and everything would fall
”Sir, all she’s doing is going to have a conversation with him. You don’t need to worry about that.” Tom leaned in and whispered to Wayne because he could feel how tense he was from the shoulder that tightened underneath his palm.Tom had a point but Wayne had a bad feeling about this.He took a deep breath and tried to be optimistic. All Rose was going to do was hear him out. That didn’t mean she was giving him the chance to crawl back into her life. It was only right for her to get an explanation about Victor’s disappearance.After that, she would kick him out of her life and come running back into Wayne’s open arms.Wayne really hoped things would work out that way. Everything had been going so smoothly and he should have known that life was gearing up to throw him a sucker punch right in the gut. They were supposed to officially start dating tonight!He was almost a hundred percent sure of that. He really liked Rose and it l
