Free The Proposition by Helen Cooper Page A

sudden urge to feel it on her again. She shook her shoulders and spoke.
     
    “I didn’t want to say no.” She looked at him defiantly. She was not going to let him think he was the only one benefitting from this weird relationship. She was getting a writing job and hot sex with a movie star.
     
    “In fact I think you were the one to initiate the sex. Couldn’t keep your hands off me could you?” Oliver grinned and this time the smile touched his eyes.
     
    “Ha. You wish.” Alice laughed and grabbed her phone from her handbag as it rang. “Hello, oh hi Peter. Can I call you back? I’m kinda in the middle of something? Awesome, I’ll see you tonight.” Alice put the phone back in the bag and looked up to see Oliver staring at her with his eyes narrowed.
     
    “You better turn your phone off when you are work. No personal calls on my time.”
     
    Alice sighed. He was back to being an ass again. “Yes Sir.”
     
    “Do you have a boyfriend Alice?”
     
    “What?” She was outraged at the suggestion. “Do you think I would have slept with you if I had a boyfriend.”
     
    “Women do weird things to get where they want. And there are many women who will do anything to sleep with a movie star .” He shrugged his shoulders as he looked at her.
     
    “I am not one of those women, thank you very much. I have no boyfriend and I would never have slept with you if I did.”
     
    “Good. ” He looked satisfied at her answer. She wanted to ask him if he had a girlfriend and she wanted to know who Maribel was but she was scared of his answer. Maybe she didn’t really want to know who the real Oliver Park was.
     
    “Go home and change and I will pick you up at 8pm tonight.” Oliver dismissed her.
     
    “What? Tonight? I have plans tonight.”
     
    “Do you want this job Alice?” His eyes were hard as he gazed at her.
     
    She sighed. “Yes.”
     
    “Then be ready at 8. And remember no underwear.”
     
    “Are we going to be working or am I going to be your sex toy for the night?” She asked him bluntly.
     
    “You will see.” His eyes shimmered.
     
    “And what happened to Maribel? I thought you had dinner plans with her.”
     
    “Nothing happened to Maribel Alice, I will still be having dinner with her. Just be ready at 8.”
     
    “Okay.” Alice stood up walked to the door. Just as she was about to walk out she felt Oliver’s hand on her shoulder. She turned around to look at him and he leaned down and gave her a long and lingering kiss. She was surprised at how gentle it was. She kissed him back passionately. This was something she would have fond memories of.
     
    “I’m glad you’re my new assistant Alice. I’ll see you later.” Oliver smiled at her, and tapped her softly on the ass as she walked out of the door.
     
    “Who is this man?” Alice mumbled to herself as she got into the elevator. She knew that was one question that may never get answered but she also knew that she would do anything to find out.

Chapter 2
     
    “Alice, I cannot believe you are going to go out with him.” Liz looked at her sternly. “Are you sure you want to do this?”
     
    “Liz, I don’t know what to tell you. It’s as if my brain is operating of its own accord. Part of me is petrified that I accepted his proposition. Another part of me is exhilarated. I do not know what I am doing.” Alice spoke quietly as she applied her makeup.
     
    “Alice, you are off of your rocker. I swear I’m not going to let you out of the apartment.” Liz lectured her.
     
    “Liz, I’m 25. It’s fine. I know what I’m doing.” Alice grinned at her friend. “Now how do I look?”
     
    “You look hot,” Liz laughed. “Omg, we are totally going to be on TMZ. You know that right?”
     
    “No we won’t.”
     
    “Oliver Park hires a hooker. Omg, you are the modern day ‘Pretty Woman’.” Liz fell on the bed in theatrics.
     
    “Ha, I wish. He didn’t offer to take me to Rodeo Drive. But maybe I should
