options.
Their waiter arrived at the table, luckily another male, and in minutes their champagne had arrived and they were enjoying a glass. “I propose a toast.” Claire raised her glass and waited for Suzy to continue. “Ummm… This is for my sleaze bag ex-Jeff with the small package, may the rest of what you have between your legs shrivel even more and may the breasts of your ho-bag dentist drop to her ankles.” They clicked their glasses grandly, both dissolving in a fit of laughter.
Claire felt a tap on her shoulder and looked up expecting to see their waiter. She was shocked to see none other than Jason Danvers looking down at her with a smile on those sexy lips. “Ladies, I couldn’t help but overhear your toast. I do hope things work out as you requested Suzy,” said an obviously amused Jason.
“Hey Mr. D, thanks man,” replied Suzy without missing a beat. Claire was surprised that Jason actually remembered Suzy’s name and equally surprised to see that Suzy was not intimidated in the least by him. Claire could feel herself cringing as Suzy continued, “You want to pull up a chair and join us? We could use some male company tonight.”
“I couldn’t think of anything that I would rather do than dine with two beautiful women; unfortunately, I’m with Grayson Merimon tonight. Claire, you might recall that Grayson is the CEO of Mericom?” Jason’s gaze had settled on her as he waited for a reply.
“Ye… Yes, I remember. I’ve never met him in person, but I do recall the name.” Claire could feel her cheeks turning red as she felt herself stammering through her reply. Oh lord, he looks good enough to eat tonight. I wonder if he’s on the menu because I would order that for sure.
“Well let’s rectify that now; I’m sure Grayson would love to meet you. I hope you ladies will join us for a drink at our table?”
Already forming a polite refusal on her lips, Claire was dismayed to see Suzy pop up from her seat with a, “sounds cool Mr. D, lead the way.” She shot Suzy her best 'what the hell are you doing' look but had no choice but to follow them over to the table.
As they approached, a tall, striking man stood up. Oh baby, this guy could give Jason a run for his money in the hot category, wow! “Ladies this is Grayson Merimon, Grayson this is Suzanna Denton, or Suzy as we call her, who handles the event planning for Danvers and this is my personal assistant, Claire Walters.”
Grayson extended a hand to Suzy first. “Ms. Denton, a pleasure to meet you,” said Grayson smoothly.
Suzy gave his hand a quick shake and replied, “What’s up Gray?” Grayson’s eyes widened slightly in surprise, a smile starting to play around his generous lips as he then turned towards Claire and extended his hand.
“Ms. Walters, after speaking with you on the telephone and via email, I feel like I already know you, it’s a pleasure to put a face with the voice.” Grayson’s hand engulfed hers in a warm grip.
“Grayson I hope you don’t mind; I’ve invited Suzy and Claire to join us for a drink.”
“Of course not Jason, it would be a pleasure,” replied Grayson. Jason seated Claire and Grayson pulled out a chair for Suzy.
Claire murmured a quick thank you, and Suzy looked over her shoulder at Grayson with a, “Thanks G.” Again Claire could see Grayson’s lips twitch.
Claire felt Jason’s powerful thigh touch against hers under the table, and her body leapt to life in response. Oh great, it’s been so long between men that I’m going to have an orgasm just from a little leg contact. She shifted as far away as she could and felt Jason’s thigh once again brushing hers. Anymore shifting and she would be out of the chair and on the floor. Claire was certain he was doing it on purpose. Ignoring him, she focused her attention on the conversation at the table.
Jason was explaining to Suzy that in the next few months she would be working with Grayson and his staff to put together a
