I like sex. Kinky sex. The kinkier the better.
Every day, it’s all I think about as I serve coffee and hand out business agendas to men who have no idea I’m not the prim, proper girl they think I am.
With a day job as the secretary to one of New York’s most powerful men, Hudson Pierce, I have to keep my double life quiet. As long as I do, it’s not a problem.
Enter: Nathan Sinclair. Tall, dark and handsome doesn’t come close to describing how hot he is. And that’s with his clothes on. But after a dirty, filthy rendezvous, I accept that if we ever see each other again, he’ll walk right by my desk on his way to see my boss without recognizing me.
Only, that’s not what happens. Not the first time I see him after the party. Or the next time. Or the time after that. And as much as I try to stop it, my two worlds are crashing into each other, putting my job and my reputation at risk.
And all I can think about is Nathan Sinclair.
All I can think about is getting just one more dirty, filthy fix.
I set down my champagne flute, untouched, and waited, my arms
folded across my chest.
But what he said next surprised me. “What kind of life do
you envision for yourself? What’s your dream future?” Instead of immediately
hounding me about my utter disrespect for the sanctity of marriage, he wanted
to listen.
This...was new.
I wasn’t prepared, which sort of pissed me off. Not only because
it occurred to me that I could have misjudged Nathan Sinclair, but also because
I didn’t exactly have a checklist of plans for myself. I just had things I
liked doing that I wanted to continue doing, uninterrupted.
“What is it I want from my life?” I repeated back to him, buying
time to think about it.
And then when I did think about it I realized I didn’t need the
time. I knew exactly what I wanted. “My own stuff, my own space, steady kinky
sex in different locations. Happy? I’m leaving.” I spun on my five-inch heels
and walked toward the exit. Irritated.
I didn’t know why I was so worked up, maybe because the whole
topic was a sore spot. Maybe because even though he hadn’t given the speech
yet, I knew it was coming eventually. I didn’t fit into the traditional world
with my viewpoints about happily-ever-afters. I already knew that.
Or, maybe I was worked up because people rarely believed it about
me when I told them. They always thought that I was lying to them or lying to
myself, but I really didn’t want what society believed I should want in the way
they thought I should want it, and I didn’t want to have to argue about it with
Nate, because I did truly like him. And I didn’t want to have this conflict.
But liking him didn’t mean I wanted to give up who I was just to make him
happy.
Instead of talking it to death and arguing my side, it was easier
just to go. Get it over with. I could cut the ties now before I liked him even
more. Before the string didn’t just tug me back from the clouds, but let all
the air out of me, too.
I rushed out into the lobby, assuming he’d let me go, but he
followed. And really, that’s what I probably should have expected. He’d already proven he was the kind of guy
that chased. Shoe or not, Nate Charming liked his fairytale kink.
And I’d just performed the most cliché move of all for a sexed-up
Cinderella—I’d run from the freaking ball.
USA Today and New York Times Bestselling Author Laurelin Paige is a sucker for a good romance and gets giddy anytime there’s kissing, much to the embarrassment of her three daughters. Her husband doesn’t seem to complain, however. When she isn’t reading or writing sexy stories, she’s probably singing, watching Game of Thrones or The Walking Dead, or dreaming of Michael Fassbender. She is represented by Rebecca Friedman.
