by Alexa Hart
“Good Morning Mr. Carter, may I help you with something?” Her practiced professional tone irritates me for some unknown reason, but I don’t give the feeling any weight.
Standing, I walk around the desk to face her, our sudden closeness making me painfully aware that we are the only two people to have arrived yet. In this proximity I can tell just how tiny she really is compared to me, standing a full foot shorter at least. She is forced to tilt her chin to meet my eyes, and I hold her gaze for a few moments before I speak. She maintains the eye-contact for longer than I expect her to, wordlessly meeting my challenge, causing a quirk in the corner of my lips.
“Miss Williams. I wanted to apologize for my tone in our meeting yesterday,” I begin, my voice smooth and sincere as people begin to shuffle through the door behind her. “I’ve examined your approach more closely, and I think we should go with it.”
The associates behind her stop dead in their tracks when they spot me, like wild animals spotting a predator in the brush. Sophia takes a moment to process my words, doing little to hide the incredulous expression on her face.
“You do?” She asks, disbelieving.
“I do.” I nod firmly, “delegate your current workload to your colleagues. Until this case is over, I expect it to be your sole focus. You’ll be working directly with me, I’ve already informed Aaron. I have a meeting to get to now, but be in my office around 1. We’ll discuss the next steps.”
Before she can respond, I am out the door, my pulse already racing in anticipation for our meeting.

Julian Price.
Billionaire businessman.
Hotter than pure sin.
My new boss…
Or should I say, my temporary boss.
My soon-to-be ex-boss as soon as I can get him to fire me.
You see, no one even bothered to ask me if I wanted this job. And newsflash… I don’t!
My father thinks he can control me. Thinks he can use me as a pawn to get what he wants.
But this job won’t last long. I’ll make sure of it.
I may have had a teenage crush on Mr. Price, but that doesn’t excuse the fact that he’s playing this dirty game with my father. I’m sick of being controlled.
Then suddenly everything changes, and I find myself wanting to give Julian a piece of me that I’ve never shared with anyone before. And something tells me he’s just man enough to take it.
But my father would never accept our relationship.
He ordered me to be Mr. Price’s personal assistant, not his filthy little plaything.
This can’t last.
But I can’t lose Julian.
