She could see that, so Brian probably could, too, if he wanted to.
“You heard me,” she nodded.
“Look,” Brian’s face softened. “I just don’t want to see him get hurt.”
“I’m not going to hurt him. I don’t know why you’d think that I would.”
“You were naked in his office.”
“Because I was wet, and he was...”
What was he doing?
He wasn’t really warming her up, now was he?
Oh, it might have started that way, but whatever it was they were doing had spiraled wildly out of control. They’d both gotten worked up, and she’d seen him naked. During her time at the company, she’d never seen any of the Monster brothers naked, but she’d especially not seen Christopher.
He’d looked good, too. He’d looked good enough to lick. That was what she’d wanted to do. She’d wanted to lean forward, stick out her tongue, and taste the dragon boss. She hadn’t, though, because she liked to think of herself as a lady. She liked to think of herself as being prim and proper even if she wasn’t.
“If you’re thinking about Christopher, stop.”
“What?”
“I can smell your arousal, human,” Brian lowered his voice to a growl. “So, stop thinking about my brother, and tell me why you were with him.”
“I was wet.”
Probably not the best way to describe her reason for being with Christopher. Luckily, Brian seemed to know she wasn’t talking about her levels of horniness.
“Why?”
“Because I got caught in the sprinklers.”
“What sprinklers?”
“The ones in the file room.”
That was interesting to Brian. Instantly, he was alert and paying attention to her. Oh, great. That was what had gotten his attention.
“What file room?”
“Okay, Brian, let’s skip the bullshit,” Allison said. “I’ve known you for a long time, and you know I’m trustworthy.”
“I don’t know a thing.”
“Shut your mouth and listen,” she snapped. She’d never talked to her boss like that before, and she knew perfectly well that Brian would be well within his rights to fire her for such a speech.
To his credit, he didn’t fire her on the spot, though. He just closed his mouth and looked at her, listening carefully. Okay, she could do this. It was time to do this.
“There have been some problems lately,” she said.
“The hacking.”
“Yeah, the hacking. We know someone has been breaking into personnel files, but that’s kind of useless information.”
“Why?”
“Because those files don’t really contain a lot of information.”
