Seduced by the CEO
I never meant for it to happen. One moment I was presenting my project to the most powerful young CEO in the industry, and the next—his lips were on mine, his hands claiming me like I’d been made only for him. Now I’m caught between scandal and desire, with a contract in one hand and his heated gaze burning into my soul. This wasn’t part of the job description… but walking away might be harder than staying.My fingers trembled against the cold steel of the elevator rail as I rose to the top floor long after midnight. I told myself I was here to fix the presentation slides. But we both knew why I really came.
Damien stood by the window, his silhouette framed by the glittering skyline. Without turning, he said, 'You shouldn’t be here.'
'And yet,' I stepped forward, pulse roaring, 'you left the door unlocked.'
He turned then—eyes dark, jaw tight—and closed the distance in three strides. 'Last night changed nothing,' he murmured, even as his hand cupped my face.
'It changed everything,' I whispered back.
Then his mouth crashed into mine, desperate and demanding, like he’d been starving for me. My back hit the wall, breath stolen, heart shattering and soaring at once.
When he pulled away, his voice was raw. 'If you walk out now, this ends. If you stay… there’s no going back.'
