Chapter 1 Chapter 1

"Let me walk you upstairs, Ms. Grant," someone said. I turned to see a man in a suit. His lapels were open wide enough for me to vaguely see his collarbones. I could also see that he didn't have anything else on underneath. Hmph. Trying this again, huh? I turned him down and sashayed upstairs to my room. My name was Sasha Grant. I was the second-in-command at a live stream company. Whenever I went on business trips, people would use various excuses to curry favor with me—they wanted the resources I had in hand. I unlocked the hotel room door with the key card and entered to see a young man seated on the bed. The room was dimly lit, but I could still see the obedient look on his face. I didn't know whether the lighting was causing it, but he seemed familiar. When I saw him, I knew the organizers had pulled this. I sighed helplessly and was about to chase him out when he approached me. "Don't sigh, angel. It'll mar your beauty." He took my coat and looked at me sincerely. I was dazed by this—he'd hooked my palm with his finger when taking my coat. When I regained composure, I saw him approach me again with a glass of wine. He smiled and asked obediently, "Would you like a sip, angel? Do you like me being so gentle?" I shook my head. To my surprise, he sipped the wine before tugging me into his arms. Then, he rasped, "What's your type, then? Do you like me now?" He pressed his lips to my ear while speaking. Then, he nibbled on my earlobe. He'd just had a drink, and I could feel the moisture on my ear. It made me shiver. Even though he had me in his arms, he merely rested his hand on my back without taking things further. I looked at his side profile to see that his ears had turned red. That was odd. Could it be he was an inexperienced virgin who was putting on a good show? The thought of that made me want to have some fun with him. I nibbled mischievously on his neck. As expected, his blush deepened. He looked like he was about to curl up with embarrassment. This amused me. I pushed him away lightly; he seemed taken aback by this and stood gaping at me. I lay on the bed and rested my head on my hand, savoring the flustered look on his face. "Go back to where you came from, kiddo. Tell your boss that I don't fool around with minors," I said. I stretched out on the bed, crossing my long legs together. My thin skirt barely covered me. He seemed to panic when he heard me. He hurried over but couldn't bring himself to meet my gaze. "I'm of age, angel! I don't have a boss, either. I volunteered for this—I just wanted to be by your side." Oh? I raised an eyebrow and hooked a finger at him. He looked shy but still scratched his head and leaned close. As I stared at his face up close, I entertained the thought of a romp in the sheets. Just then, someone knocked on the door. He jolted before running off. After a while, he returned and said, "I'm sorry, angel, but I need to leave to attend to something. I'll come see you again tomorrow." Then, he hurried off, leaving me stunned on the bed. Had my "treat" for the night escaped just like that? I chuckled. I'd seen men pull this trick too many times—they were just playing hard to get. Still, I couldn't help feeling a little disappointed that such a cute guy had escaped my clutches.

Chapter 2 Chapter 2

The following day, I headed to a multimedia company per my schedule to attend a sharing session. A shadow loomed over me as I sat down to reply to some work messages. I looked up to see the young man from yesterday. I noticed a name tag pinned to his shirt—Jeremy Gale was his name. It sounded familiar, yet I couldn't pinpoint where I'd heard it. Once he was sure it was me, he sat beside me and leaned close before I could ask him anything. "I sneaked in here for your sake, angel." His warm breath fanned over my ear, which made me squirm a little. I leaned away and smirked at him. "For my sake? I don't even know you. Will you get kicked out if I call security, then?" His expression turned a little pleading at my words. "I'm here to learn, angel. Could you help me keep this a secret?""A secret, huh? What's in it for me?" He suddenly held my hand and blinked at me. I glanced to my other side to see someone was seated a few seats away. As my mind wandered, Jeremy placed his hand on my thigh. "What do you want me to give you, angel? Is this okay?" He nibbled on my earlobe. This happened so suddenly that I feared he would take things too far. I squeezed my thighs to stop his hand from going any further. Just then, a group of people sat behind me. I didn't dare move. I shot Jeremy a look, signaling that he shouldn't do anything rash, but he was unfazed. "Be good, angel. Relax so that I can show you what's in it for you." God! How could he be doing something like this when there were so many people around? I grabbed his hand. He leaned closer, wanting to say something, when I glared at him. "Don't do this! There are people everywhere!" We were at a sharing session, so there were people all around us. My colleagues were sitting right in front of us—doing something like that in a place like this was too embarrassing! Jeremy still didn't remove his hand. "That means we can do this when we're alone, right?" I gnashed my teeth as I looked at him with displeasure. I tugged on his hand a few more times, but he still didn't budge. Damn it! I puffed out my cheeks and glared at him, but all he did was look back at me innocently. He didn't stop his ministrations, though. After trying and failing multiple times to push him away, I leaned against Jeremy's shoulder, feeling my body turn to jelly. "What's wrong, angel? Are you okay? Are you feeling unwell?" He leaned closer, seemingly on purpose. I looked around nervously, afraid that people would see what we were up to. Ultimately, I gave in. "I don't want to do this here. Please…""What's wrong? Don't you like it? That doesn't seem like the case, though. Can you feel that, angel?" I was wrong. I should never have thought he was an inexperienced virgin. "Please, not here…" I could hear how shaky my voice was. "Alright, then." He gave in. I sighed in relief. That was when he grabbed my hand and placed it on his… "Can you have fun with me now, angel?" he asked. I nodded, and he relaxed. He removed his hand from my body. Mine was still on his groin, though. I squeezed it cheekily before moving to another seat. I heard him suck in a breath before giving me a resentful look. I rubbed my nose and moved even further. I wouldn't have expected him to be so well-endowed when he looked so young. Thanks to this incident, I didn't register anything that was mentioned during the sharing session. Jeremy had agreed not to do anything else but soon sat beside me again. When the lights were dimmed, he would sniff me here and there. I tried to push him away a few times but failed. Ultimately, I could only sit there and endure the torment.

I sighed like a burden had been lifted from my shoulders when the sharing session was finally over. I got up, wanting to leave the place as soon as possible. After texting my colleagues and telling them I was leaving, I pushed Jeremy away and fled. I stopped at the entrance and turned back to see Jeremy chatting up a storm with other people. He showed no intention of coming after me, which relieved me. However, for some reason, I still felt odd. The feeling was especially obvious when I thought about what he'd done to me earlier. I could feel my face warming up again. It was so embarrassing. I hoped no one saw anything. After returning to my hotel, I rolled around on the bed a few times before calming down. I had to change my pants because of what had happened during the sharing session. I looked at the wetness in my underwear, chastising myself for my reaction. After changing, I patted my hot cheeks. Just then, I heard someone knock on the door. Jeremy couldn't have chased me all the way here, could he? I peeked out the peephole and sagged in relief when I saw a hotel employee. Then, I opened the door. "Good day, Ms. Grant. These are some flowers for you." The employee handed me a bouquet of roses. I asked a few questions before dismissing him when I realized he had few answers. As I shut the door and turned around, I fell into deep thought while staring at the roses. Then, I noticed a card hidden inside. I picked it up and read it. "You're not getting away from me, angel." Hmph. What a brat. I set the flowers aside, not taking Jeremy's words to heart. As soon as I did that, Mabel Lane called me. She said, "I have good news, Sasha. I've found a great streamer here; I think the company will…" Her mention of this reminded me that I'd yet to find any suitable streamers during this trip. All I'd found was a young man who was backing me into a corner. The thought of Jeremy reminded me of what had happened during the sharing session. My body started heating up again. Mabel was still talking about her achievements during this trip. I responded absent-mindedly; she seemed to notice this on the other end of the line. So, she concluded, "You'll know what a prize I've found when we get back to work on Monday." After hanging up, my mind was overwhelmed by thoughts of the roses and the odd sensation Jeremy had made me feel. I patted my cheeks and told myself to calm down. … My business trip lasted another two days. Throughout that time, I attended various gatherings and seriously kept an eye out for potential streamers. Finally, I discovered one who looked like he would do well. Jeremy didn't show up again, but I forced myself not to think about it. My career was more important than him. On Monday, I brought the streamer I'd discovered to the company. He was the more mature type, and we didn't have many streamers like him. This would be a good time to train him for better things. I pondered this while walking and entered my office. The streamer followed me. I said, "Take a seat. I'll get an assistant to show you around the company later." Silence greeted me. "Hmm?" I wanted to turn to see why the streamer hadn't said anything when someone grabbed me from behind. "What the—let me go!" I felt an unfamiliar moisture on the back of my neck. I also felt someone's warm breath fanning over me. Whoever it was, he was sniffing me. This was so weird. When I turned around, I saw Jeremy instead of the streamer I'd brought with me. "What are you doing here?""Were you hoping to see someone other than me, angel? Who were you thinking of?" He pulled me flush against his body, seemingly wanting us to merge as one. "This is my office. Don't… Don't do this…""You smell amazing, angel. You're as sweet as honey." Jeremy tugged me to the couch nearby and pinned me to it. "You look gorgeous today…" He had my arms above my head, so I couldn't fight back. All I could see was his eyes gleaming with desire as he looked at me. "You like this, don't you? Look at how you're…" Before he could take things further, I heard the doorknob jangle. This scared me, almost making me jolt up. Jeremy held me down. "Don't panic, angel. I locked the door." The jangling stopped at his words. Whoever was outside switched to knocking on the door. He straightened his clothes as I glared at him. Then, he squeezed me mischievously, almost making my knees give out. "You want me, too, don't you?""Hmph." I turned away and ignored him as I straightened myself out. However, I couldn't help thinking about his words. My body wasn't repulsed by his touch—in fact, I seemed particularly sensitive to him. Was it worth giving this a shot? When I was done straightening up, I noticed him staring at me from his perch on the couch.
