Free Mastered By The Boss by Opal Carew

arms, his
lips moving on hers. She melted against him, uncertain what was
happening, but loving the sweetness of his embrace and his tender
kiss.
    “You said it was just sex between us, but we both
know it’s developed into more than that, and I want us to explore
what we have.” He stroked her cheek. “Kali, I’m falling for you.
Hard. And I want to explore a relationship with you, with all the
facets.” He smiled.
    Her heart soared. “Not just sex in the office, then
back to work afterward?”
    “Sometimes. But also here in my apartment.” He
tightened his arms around her. “In my bed. With you moaning my
name.” He grinned. “Sometimes it’ll be Mr. Blair, and other times
Ryan. Whatever I feel like at the time.”
    She laughed. “And what about me?”
    “Don’t forget. I’m the one in charge. But I’ll
definitely keep your wants in mind.” He nuzzled her neck. “And I
plan to meet them.” His twinkling gaze locked on hers. “Thoroughly.
And repeatedly.”
    She sucked in a breath.
    “Well, talking about meeting needs…” Her hand
stroked over his hard cock. “I think I should meet yours now.”
    “That’s a good idea.” He smacked her bottom and she
gasped. “Now into my bedroom.”
    She walked toward the room he gestured to, conscious
of his appreciative gaze on her naked bottom. Soon she would have
his cock in her mouth, then shortly after, he would fuck her. Her
insides melted at the thought.
    But as soon as she opened the door, all thoughts
scattered.
    Inside the room was a plethora of lit candles,
filling the room with a lovely glow. Six large vases of long-stem
roses were positioned around the room, filling the air with their
sweet fragrance.
    She stood frozen in the doorway. His hands curled
over her shoulders and he nuzzled her neck, sending tingles through
her.
    “Your friend said you wanted candle light and
flowers.”
    Tears welled in her eyes. He’d said he was
developing feelings for her, but she’d taken that to mean he liked
her and wanted to get to know her outside the office, too. But this
wasn’t just Mr. Blair convincing her to continue their office
fling, and just sweetening the pot. He was actually offering her
romance.
    “Do you like them?” he murmured against her ear.
    She nodded, the tears escaping and rolling down her
cheeks. Then she turned to face him.
    His smile faded as he saw her tears, but she flung
her arms around him and kissed him.
    “I love them!”
    He laughed and claimed her lips again. Then he gazed
down at her with gleaming eyes.
    “Kali, I’ve wanted you for a long time, and now I
realize it wasn’t just lust, or an infatuation. When I’m away from
you, all I can think about is being with you again. That’s why I
asked you to stay at the office when I got back from the trip. I
wanted to tell you then that I wanted us to have a real
relationship.”
    “And I broke it off. Because I felt the same, but
thought…” She shook her head.
    “When you broke off the relationship, I was
devastated, and I quickly realized what these feeling were…”
    He lowered his face to hers and kissed her tenderly.
“I love you, Kali.”
    More tears rolled from her eyes as joy rocketed
through her.
    “I love you, too. Ryan.”
    He laughed and squeezed her tight then twirled her
around in sheer joy.
    “Now that we have that settled, I think we should do
something about it.”
    She smiled. “What do you have in mind?”
    He scooped up her legs, then carried her to the bed.
He laid her on it, then he stepped back and peeled off his clothes.
She watched as he revealed his thick, muscular chest and shoulders,
and realized she had never seen him naked.
    And boy, was that a shame. Because he was
incredible. Rippling muscles and rock-hard abs. His pants dropped
to the floor and his briefs barely contained his long erection.
    As he pushed down his underwear, she unbuttoned her
blouse. She tossed it aside, then shed her bra.
    “I’ll get the panties,” he said as
