hand was than hers. It engulfed hers, and though he was a geek, his fingers were rough like he used them outside.
    "I rock climb." He told her when he saw her staring at his hands.
    "That explains the calluses." Sadie nodded and would have walked over to the file cabinet but he didn't let go of her hand for a moment.
    "You really did grow up beautiful Sadie." He told her and then dropped her hand suddenly like she'd burned him and turned to leave the room. "I'm going out for lunch, you have until I get back at two to have them organized."
    Sadie watched him leave, feeling her heart pounding in her chest, realizing that the reaction she had to him wasn't fear about not getting the job, it was attraction to him.
    She felt guilty, he was her step brother, of course they didn't really know each other, but that particular relationship still existed and it should make her feel wrong that she felt something besides sisterly love for him.
    Yet, she didn't see him as her brother. She saw him as a man. A man who liked fast women and slutty dressed office workers, that woman wasn't her. She'd never be that. She realized that he hadn't hit on her and wondered if he didn't see her like that and figured she'd have to make a point to cover herself from head to toe so no one would get the wrong impression.
    The last thing she wanted was people thinking she wanted to seduce him or something.
    She didn't want to seduce him. He was going to be her boss, and just because he was comfortable sleeping with the other women here, didn't mean she wanted to be added to the notch on his bedpost. Besides, how could she possibly compare physically to those leggy women out there who didn't look like they had a wrinkle or butt dimple anywhere.
    Sadie shook her head feeling stupid, he hadn't even given her any indication that he was even remotely interested in her like that.
    How stupid was this? She was thinking like a stupid teenage girl with too many hormones.
    She'd always had a crush on him as a little girl, even though he'd been mean to her, and it looks like it had never gone away. She wondered if this was a good idea taking this job. She'd remembered following him around like a lovesick puppy when they'd been growing up.
    He'd teased her mercilessly because of it.

 
    Chapter 3
     
    Cedric was out for lunch with two of the women he preferred to accompany for a meal. Neither of them had an eating disorder, so they'd finish their food, and actually enjoy a good meal. A few of the girls wouldn't eat when he took them out, and it always bothered him to see them pick at a meal and be afraid to eat in front of other people. He liked women who weren't afraid to eat.
    He couldn't stop thinking about Sadie. Angela had her hand on his cock under the table through his pants and was trying to excite him and he was ignoring her. She finally let out a little huff and moved her hand from his pants when it was clear he wasn't going to respond or engage in a little public fornication under the table where someone might see them be naughty.
    "What's wrong with you? You are acting all distracted." Angela told him, giving him a funny look.
    "I just hired a new assistant, I was thinking about if she'd be able to handle the work environment and keep up with her work load." Cedric told her as he put a piece of bread in his mouth while he waited for his steak. "I had her organizing the filing cabinet the last assistant I fired screwed up."
    "You mean that mousey little brunette who needs to go on a diet who walked in today?" Angela said laughing. "Well, she's definitely not a threat to the rest of us, let's hope she can do a better job with her assistant skills than her horrible outfit choices."
    "There was nothing wrong with her outfit." Cedric said, feeling the need to defend her. "She wasn't mousey either. She's short and curvy, and while she's not blond, a brunette can be a nice color change occasionally."
    "You hate brunettes. And since when have you been attracted to
