beat of her heart. “La’Treece is tough too, ” she countered.
    “I’m not attracted to La’Treece. There’s only one woman I’m interested in.”
    Her smoldering gaze told him the feeling was mutual.  He stood holding her, the warmth of her body flooding into his fingertips.  Touching her was like magic. He was mesmerized by the feel of her.  Her lips parted to say something, but he didn’t wait for her response. Besides, nothing could be more important than what he had on his mind.
    He leaned in and captured her mouth. Sweet nectar greeted him, and he greedily plunged in, hungry for more. He tilted her head back for better access. She was tough, but her kiss was soft. He let out a satisfied grunt as she yielded to him. Moments later, their tongues moved seductively in a dance as old as time.  No matter what differences a man and woman faced, the fires of passion could always triumph. And Lord, he felt the fire for her.  His body heated as he plundered her mouth.  She was everything he’d imagined she would be. His heart stampeded like a runaway stallion as she purred against his lips. Already, his dick was rising to the occasion.
    Jeez! From just one kiss?
    What was it about Destiny that drew him like a kid to the carnival? He had to have better control over his actions. And he’d broken rule number three–no shoving his tongue down a co-worker’s throat.
    He a bruptly pulled away, ready to take the focus off his raging libido.  “I want La’Treece out of my house,” he said. “I don’t trust her.”
    The pretty mouth he’d just ravished dropped open. “You want me to leave?”
    “Not you. Her.”
    Destiny shook her head. “No. We discussed that.  I won’t leave her stranded.”
    He returned to his desk, eager to put distance between them.  “La’Treece is not a vict im. She brought this on herself.  She needs to be gone before I get home today.  I’m having the locks changed too.  I’m simply telling you as a courtesy.”
    “Then, I’m going with her.” He watched her bottom lip tremble, obviously dismayed with the choice she had to make.
    “Now, you’re t he one who’s lying.”
    “You think I won’t do it?” She raised her chin a full inch in the air.
    “If you do, it’ll be the biggest mistake you ever made. You have a chance to start anew. You’re a grown woman. I can’t tell you who to keep company with, but she’s out of my home.”
    “How can you be so cold?”
    He reclined in his leather chair.  “I’m protecting what’s mine.”
    Her eyes sparked with anger.  “I am not yours!”
    He folded his arms over his chest.  “I meant my house, not you.”
    The power of her glare diminished as she h eaded for the door. He waited until she’d opened it before stopping her.  “Oh, and Destiny, When I make a move on a woman, you’d better damn well believe I’ve never been rejected.”
    She tossed a retort over her shoulder.  “Contrary to your cocky beliefs, not every woman wants you.”
    He smirked.  “I haven’t met one yet.”

Chapter 6
     
    A week had passed since Cayson kissed her in his office. Destiny came to work each day and did her job as instructed.  She and Cayson were professionally polite. He made sure to leave the door to his office open at all times, and she made sure not to watch the movement of his sexy lips as he talked.  Every time she thought about his tongue stroking hers, she got wet. She couldn’t afford to keep soaking perfectly good pairs of panties. So, she forced herself to be angry at him. Anger was a much more effective tool than lust.
    Anger fueled her need to better herself. She had to work hard and get that apartment for both her and La’Treece.  She missed her best friend. After she’d had to break the bad news that she would not be moving out with her, La’Treece stormed out of the house and refused to speak to her. All of Destiny’s calls to her best friend’s cell phone had gone unanswered. Soon, the
