Hunter:The smell of you was all over my fingers. I had to take things into my own hands last night. Imagining your bare pussy in front of me, soaking wet …

The moment my eyes read the entire message, an involuntary cough escapes me, causing everyone to turn around. Great, now I’m embarrassed and turned on at the same time.

“Sorry, please carry on,” I tell everyone, then bow my head.

I turn my phone around to avoid the distraction and continue to jot dot everything Carol is saying until something catches my attention.

“Here is a list of who is dominating the market.” Carol points to the screen as everyone looks. “Harperlex Media is currently in the first position with their new investment into streaming sites.”

Harperlex is an entity of my father’s company or something like that. All I know is he owns it, amongst many others. Carol suddenly catches my attention, prompting me to place the pen down for a minute.

“Our team is working on a plan to move to the number one position by the end of the year.”

Wait, boot my dad’s company out of the number one position? Hunter glances my way for a brief moment, then back to Carol.

“Thank you, Carol,” he quickly interrupts. “Ian, I’d like you to talk about staff numbers, please.”

For the rest of the meeting, I do what I need to do until my hand cramps up from the in-between writing and typing. Hunter calls the meeting to an end, but Carol lingers to discuss something with him. I follow Meredith to her office and close the door behind me.

“Meredith, can I ask you a question?”

“Of course.”

“Is Carol trying to ruin my dad’s company?”

Meredith stares in confusion, then her expression softens. “Alexa, it’s just business. Everyone is always fighting for the top spot. Granted, your father’s company is always number one. I assure you, this is normal, and the industry is quite competitive.”

“So, she’s not like doing anything bad. She’s not going out of her way to bring it down, just healthy competitive tactics?”

“Hunter is not that type of man.” Meredith smiles.

I leave Meredith’s office feeling better about the whole situation, then sit at my desk for the next two hours to type everything out before emailing everyone. The moment I hit send, Hunter responds to my email requesting to see him in his office.

People are still in the office, making it less daunting to be alone with him. I slowly make my way over, then knock on his door.

“Come in.”

Opening the door, he’s exactly where he always is, sitting in his big leather chair.

“Close the door behind you, please.”

I close the door but remain near the entrance. Hunter gazes at me and stands up. As he walks toward me, I back myself against the door with a racing heart. He leans his hand flat on the door, not allowing me to move.

“I want more,” he demands, bringing his lips to my ear. “Right here. I want you to play with yourself.”

“But … but … what if someone comes in?”

Hunter leans over, locking the door. “Satisfied?”

“People saw me come in.”

“You do report to me, correct?”

I nod with a breath caught in my throat.

“Then I request you slide your fingers into your panties and show me how wet you are right now.”

His words create a frenzy within me, and I don’t hesitate to pull my skirt up to rub between my legs. The moment I touch my clit, an electric shock runs through me, causing me to whimper.
