congratulations are in order.” - She just couldn’t hide the smile.

 

Mia:       “Regarding?” – She played naive.

 

Diane:   “Well, Alex Black and you, of course. You are now engaged, right?”

 

Mia:       “Is that the reason why I’m here, or maybe this company has no bigger issues to attend?”

 

Griffin:  “Miss Petrov, I’m sure that Diane had no intention of being intrusive. But you have to agree, that it’s in the Company’s best interests to have information whether some employee will be at our disposal or not.” – I provoked her, and she knew exactly what was on my mind.

 

Mia:       “Mr Griffin, rest assured that I am at your full disposal, whenever you need me.” – She gazed directly in my eyes.

 

Diane was out of herself. But still, she tried to remain calm and hold a grasp of what was happening.

 

Diane:   “I’m sure that Mr Griffin has no interest in that kind of…well….disposal.” –she poked.

 

Mia:       “Miss, before making that kind of statement….” –She addressed Diane, but still staring directly in my eyes continued seductively. “I’d make sure I checked.” – Oh, she just knew how to light my fire. Situation was tense. Doug had no idea what was going on, and all I could focus on were her eyes, which were still insolently gazing mine. Well, I needed to say something, since the tension was so high that things were on a verge of getting out of control.

 

Griffin:  “What the hell has gotten into the two of you? As if we don’t have enough problems as it is. I called you to try and fix some burning issues, and you act like a bunch of adolescents.” – Diane felt like she was being slapped.

 

Diane:   “But James, can’t you see that….”

 

Griffin:  “I said it was enough.” I yelled until they all silenced. “Now leave!” They all stood up silently, and walked toward the doorway. “Not you, Miss Petrov, this kind of behavior cannot be tolerated as acceptable. Doug, please, close the door after Diane and you.” – Diane was again victorious. She thought that I finally backed her up and I was going to put her at her spot. They closed the door, and Mia was still facing the door, getting more anxious.

 

Griffin:  “Nobody was ever allowed to talk like that in my presence. You know that I have to sanction this kind of behavior.”- I provoked her further.

 

Mia:      “Yes.” – She was obedient and she liked it. So I guess Mr Black was dominant in the relationship. Of course he was. Let’s see what was that thing he created.

 

Griffin:  “Good. Now turn around and approach the desk.” – Again she obeyed. I was still on my chair, getting turned on by what I knew was inside of her head too.

 

Griffin:  “Now, take off your skirt. Slowly.” - She did it very slowly. Unbuttoned it until it dropped on the floor. “Your panties, lower them down to your thighs.” - I couldn’t take my eyes off of her. She was so damn tempting. “Place your elbows on the desk, bend down and close your eyes.” – I could feel how ready she was for me. And I enjoyed being the man who has this effect on her. I stood up and walked behind her. I unzipped my pants and put my hand on her thigh. Her skin was so perfect, and wanted to feel exactly how ready she was. My hand went all the way up until my fingers reached their way inside of her. God, she was so damn wet and warm. I put them even deeper, and with her every move she begged me to end the torture.

 

Griffin:  “Miss Petrov, are you ready to be in my full disposal?”

 

Mia:       “Yes.”

 

I took her so hard she began moaning. I put my palm over her mouth to silence her, since there were bunch of people just from the other side of the door. Oh, Mia, you are so good. I sensed you would be. We were both so excited, we exploded in a split second. I zipped my pants, and pulled her panties up. All I could hear was him zipping his pants. I sat back on my chair, watching her fixing up her skirt. I carelessly picked up phone to make some phone call and said to her:

 

Griffin:  “You can go now, Miss Petrov.” I smiled. “For now.”

Chapter Eighteen

 

My God, this woman was made for me. I have never been living in higher uncertainty, and I just couldn’t get enough of it. Where was she before? And I could have spent my entire life without knowing that feelings like this existed. She really was a strange combination. Living from today till tomorrow. But without a trace of fear. She will leave it all, move to a different place, and excel in whatever she does next. That’s how she was capable of quitting her job. Just like that. It was a challenge for her. And she saw she could do it, so she did it to the end. And moved on. Will the same thing happen to me? She has feelings for me. I know she does. But will she love me to my bottom and then move on? I couldn’t even think about this scenario.

 

This woman pushed me to my limits. She gave me wings to do anything I wanted. I was motivated, sharp, cutting, pushing. She held my back, and the sky was the limit for me. She was this kind of woman who pushed you to your highest limits and at the same time being aware of the fact that you could leave once you reach your potential, because you spread your wings too much. But for her it doesn’t matter. She just loves to see you fly. Even without her by her side. Frankly, I have never seen anything like her.

 

I was thinking we should go someplace. Just the two of us. I had a business conference in Malta, and I wanted her to be with me. I wanted to be proud of her, and to enjoy the fact that everybody knew she was only mine. It was also a good opportunity to meet Nathan Finley. He was at the Europe at the time, and I had no chance of meeting him in USA. He was living someplace in Asia, and he was still willing to discuss this investment in my company, even though this thing with UniGlobe was aborted. I had no idea how he reacted, but he was a businessman before everything, and he knew that my company was a good job for him. Anyway, I loved having Mia by my side on this topic. She was holding my back, and her intuition and calmness were exactly what I needed.

 

She was excited when I mentioned Europe to her. She was like this old spirit, and loved the European charm. Well, she will love Malta then. I have been there a couple of times, but her excitement was immeasurable. She fell in love with it, and I was flattered that she shared this experience with me. We couldn’t get enough of each other. So careless and free. Being able to walk freely by the coast, without being afraid that someone might see us. I mean, I didn’t care, but I didn’t want to put her in troubles. She was doing a really great job, and they would all just conclude that she advanced so far just because she slept with me. But Malta gave us shelter.

 

I was in love. There was no way back for me, and I think it scared her. She probably never felt it next to this asshole. She didn’t knew how to cope with these new feelings she never encountered before. And minimizing the risk would be to run again. God, how I would love for her to learn how to relax and just be happy. I guess it was the luxury she never allowed herself.

 

The opening ceremony was a big black tie event here, and I already arranged all the details. I wanted to reveal and explore every inch of her femininity. Also, for me was very important that the woman I’m with can accompany me to every event, and to radiate confidence, elegance, and humbleness. Diane was natural in it. She had it in her. Actually she was raised as an aristocrat. But I knew that Mia must have it in her as well. She just didn’t have the chance to show it. And like everything else she does, she will excel in it. After brief consultations, I ordered Oscar de la Renta evening gown, and I imagined her in it. This will suit her perfectly. It was a white sleeveless gown was all covered with light green spring leaves pattern. It had a few discrete white daisies on it. In the front it was knee length, and voluminous ankle length in the back, with a white silk faille underneath. I also ordered a light green strap shoes with high heels, which color matched the color of the leaves on the floral print. They had three straps: one around the toes, one around the ankle, and the one that diagonally connected them. I decided to give her fairytale.

 

I didn’t tell her nothing about the ceremony, and she wanted to make me proud in her company. Even if she wore a t shirt and pants, I would still be the most proud man in the room.

 

Mia:       “James, you could have at least told me about the ceremony. I have to go shopping. It’s only a couple of hours away…. James, do you even hear what I’m saying?”

 

I was fixing my tie, hiding my smile.

 

Griffin:  “Mia, do you really think I’d allow any woman to be more beautiful tonight than my date? Your dress is waiting for you in the closet. It was waiting for you for a couple of days. I arranged it to be prepared before we arrived.”

 

Mia:       “But James, how do you even know my size, and whether I’ll like it?”

 

Griffin:  “Please, get dressed, we do not have time for pointless discussions right now.”

 

She went to the closet. I was still trying to fix the suit, when I saw her reflection in the mirror behind me. I turned around stunned with disbelief. Is this the same black panther I met on the stage? Or the fragile creature sleeping in my lap?

 

Griffin:  “My imagination was not even close…” –I reached out for her and led her to the mirror. She was also in disbelief herself.

 

Mia:       “James, I don’t know what to say…I…it’s beautiful…”

 

She was the most beautiful thing I laid my eyes to. A princess. Now this girl, who never read fairytales because she never believed in happy endings, was in a fairytale of her own. And I was proud to be the prince. My Cinderella.

 

Griffin:  “It’s nothing compared to you. You deserve the best. And I will make sure that you have everything by my side.”

 

Mia:       “James, please, we agreed that…”- She was scared again. How can happiness be so frightening to her?

 

Griffin:  “I know, I know….but a man can dream, right?” She turned around, and kissed me with a spark of true happiness in her eyes. ”Go before I take it all off of you. The hairdresser is ready for you downstairs.”

 

She
