homes?”
Elvin paused, then burst out laughing. “You know, you’re right, that sounds crazy. I’m sure losing a billion-dollar deal isn’t going to make Jessup so mad as to do something stupid. Like I told him, you win some you lose some.”
“He was right about one thing though – you need to relax, go on a cruise or something. You work too hard,” Damian said as they headed out of the boardroom.
Elvin rested a hand on his shoulder. “Only if you go with me,” the older man said with a grin. “Coming from you, going on any kind of vacation sounds like you’re speaking another language.”
“Oh, I’m definitely planning to take a few days off – personal time,” Damian said, already thinking about Hanna and how that one day out of town had hardly been enough to explore how good she’d felt, wrapped around him in many different ways. Damian already knew he was obsessed with her. It scared him sometimes but he told himself he needed this chance to know if he could get her out of his system. She’d never know how close she’d come to being the one woman who could bring him to his knees.
“I see,” his father said shrewdly, pausing on the way to his office and turning to cock a brow at Damian. “Let me guess. You met someone?”
Damian grinned, wondering what his father would think if he knew Damian had a thing with his executive assistant. “Something like that. But I wouldn’t want you building fairy castles just yet, Dad.”
“I know,” said Elvin Rush wryly. “But one day, son, who knows. You’ll find what your mother and I had. I really wish that for you.”
His father’s serious tone sobered Damian, who said deeply, “Thanks Dad.”

Hanna scolded herself for what she just agreed to. Did she really want to spend the next few days enjoying a sex-filled getaway with Damian?
He’d brought it up at the end of the work day, and she’d actually wanted to smack his face. But when he pulled her down to straddle his laps as he stayed seated on his chair behind the desk, somehow all she could do was give in to his honeyed, smoldering kiss.
Ooh, he was smooth. He knew how to pour on the charm so well and there was the case of her crazy hormones. She should hate him for all he’d done! First he messed things up with her boyfriend, then he simply took over her life, expecting her to play along. Hanna didn’t like to feel like a doormat and she’d taken a lot of stuff dating Chet, but now faced with Damian who had alpha issues of his own, she was torn.
As he kissed and caressed her into acquiescence, Hanna suddenly realized what she had to do. Damian had taken so much from her and now he seemed ready to keep taking. And she couldn’t do a thing about it. Because she wasn’t strong enough to walk away, not yet.
But as she stared deep into his eyes, Hanna’s heart tripped over itself and for a breathless moment, she felt tempted to voice out her heart’s wish… One day, Damian Rush, I’m going to make you admit that you love me – and then I’m going to laugh in your face. I’ll want you to know how it feels when someone walks all over your heart and doesn’t look back.
She didn’t say it of course, and kept her musings to herself. The kiss deepened and for the next few minutes she couldn’t even think. Yep, she definitely couldn’t walk away from this.
“Much as I like the thought of fulfilling my hottest fantasy of taking you hard over every corner of this desk – I booked us dinner at Taranga’s. Wouldn’t want to be late.”
“Glad you’re always so mindful to keep me well fed,” Hanna noted, sliding fluidly from his laps and hearing him groan with pronounced agony as she rocked slightly on his evident erection before climbing off.
She straightened her skirt and turned away, looking over her shoulder to find his eyes glued on her swaying hips. “We both have to build up our strength,” he murmured, easily catching up to her and making her squeal when he
