elevator and her heart nearly leaped out of her chest when he stepped in the room.
    However, her excitement quickly turned to dismay when he barely glance her way and simply said as he passed by: “Amelia, I need to see you in my office.”
    Oh no. What had gone wrong? What happened in just two days? She didn’t want to get up. Didn’t want to walk in his office. Didn’t want to hear him dump her because that was surely what he was going to do, right? Hesitantly, she knocked on the door and stepped inside.
    “I have some things we need to discuss.” He spoke calmly, sitting in his big leather chair. He was leaning forward on his desk with his fingers touching like a steeple.
    “Ok…ummm…shall I get a notepad?” She was trying so hard not show any emotion in her voice.
    “No, that won’t be needed.”
    She crossed the room and sat down on the edge of a chair, steeling herself for whatever he was about to say.
    “Amelia.”
    “Mr. Kensington.”
    “We need to schedule in an appointment.” Seriously? He was giving her a heart attack and it was all about work? First, she was relieved and then she got indignant. How dare he act so cool and distant?
    “Ok, is this for a meeting, sir?” She knew the last word was dripping with sarcasm, but she couldn’t help herself. Then, he smiled. He actually smiled. She knew she had screwed up getting involved with him. What a jerk!
    “Well, it’s sort of a meeting.”
    “Mr. Kensington, I need to know how to list it for your appointment book.”
    “It doesn’t have to go in the books.”
    Now, she huffed, exasperated. What on earth was he talking about? “I’m confused.”
    He laughed that deep laugh that was just as silky as his voice. “I need to schedule some time when I can be alone with you.”
    “What?”
    “I know you aren’t deaf Amelia. All I have thought about this weekend was you. Touching you. Hearing your voice. Having you again. I can’t get you off my mind. And I’m afraid if I don’t get you in the next hour or so, I may lose my mind, and that’s no way to run a company.”
    “Oh.”
    “So, when are we both available?”
    “Ummm..right now?” Every bit of anger and disappointment melted away. He had been playing with her. Teasing her. And then he talked about wanting her that badly. No one ever wanted her so much. No one ever said they had to have her right then and there.
    “Well, could you please come here a moment?” He made a welcoming gesture, so she walked around the desk and stood in front of him. With one smooth motion, he grabbed her legs and tugged so that she virtually fell in his lap, straddling him. “Oh god Amelia, you are so gorgeous. I want to throw you over this desk right now.”
    “Not a good idea sir.”
    “Why? Why can’t I have you right now?”
    “You have a meeting in 15 minutes.”
    “Who said I needed more time?” He said, with a wicked gleam in his eye.
    “As much as I would enjoy it, I don’t think it would be a good idea if you showed up to this meeting with sex hair.”
    He threw his head back and laughed. “Sex hair? You think I get sex hair? I thought that was a girl thing.”
    “No, you get rather tousled. It would be unprofessional.”
    He sighed deeply. “Well, could we at least make out for a while?”
    “That we can do, Mr. Kensington.” She leaned down and kissed him. His hands, still on her legs, slowly slid up her hips, holding her against him where she could feel his growing erection. It was everything she could do not to unzip his pants right then. But, their kissing was interrupted when the phone rang.
    “Don’t move.” He growled and then pressed the speaker phone button. “Barend Kensington.”
    “Mr. Kensington, the representatives from Glouster, Incorporated are here for the meeting at 8:30. Shall I send them to the conference room?” It was the receptionist and Barend’s meeting was about to begin, Amelia felt herself a little disappointed.
    “Yes, Shelly. See them in
