Oh lord, this day was going to be the death of me. Dashawn told me that this was the last day before the holiday break. He shuts down the whole company until two days after New Years. He is such a considerate boss. He said he wants his employees happy and a lot of them have
families. Family is important to him.
So, now here I was stuffing the thirty–three people on the thirtieth floor stockings each with a
ten thousand dollar bonus check. Not just considerate, but generous too. I was also
instructed to put candy canes and chocolates in each stocking.
No one is to open their envelope until tonight at the party. Mike was in decoration mode, he
had a whole team helping him. Dashawn is finishing up last–minute meetings. The party
starts at eight. Dashawn told me he would have a dress waiting for me in his office closet. I
was to shower here and get ready starting at six. I didn’t think I would need two hours to get
ready.
I ran into Cia as she was coming out of her office.
“I have a question,” I said to her.
“I might have the answer, shoot.”
“The other floors in this building, what businesses are on them?”
“Well, there is the lobby. First floor is security and conference rooms. Second floor is a break room with offices for HR. Nina runs a tight ship there. She has a team of workers that go through hundreds of resumes. Third floor is a maintenance area. All our servers are there also. Fourth and fifth floors are the accounting areas and file rooms where we keep our hard copies
of the contracts. Our middle floors, sixth through fifteenth floors, are our agents‘ offices. We have over two hundred agents that we send out to find the talents. Kimber is in charge of all the agents, except Dashawn. When she is pissed, whoowee watch out. The people under her call her The General. The sixteenth floor is Tally’s floor. She has a sound studio here and a suite. She’s hardly ever home with how much she tours. But when she is, she would rather stay here than at the compound. She’ll visit the compound, but doesn’t want to live there.”
“Can I ask why?”
“Demon,” Cia says.
“Ambrose?”

She nods and then makes a long heavy sigh. “She’s in love with him. Or at least she used to be. When she was nineteen, she was just starting to take off in the entertainment world. My
baby sister sings like she was born for it. Her voice is smokey and raspy. She’s a powerhouse
too. Girl can belt. Anyway, Ambrose was twenty–three, they had all just taken over LOC. Like
seriously taken over, their training was done, all the older ranked members wanted to step
down and live their lives with their women or man, in Hex’s instance, except he still had a
couple of years to go until Callum could take his place. Anyway, there was a big party.
Ambrose has always been very big and Tally, she’s tiny. She’s not like Kimber and me. We
have curves, we’re a little thicker. We will never be under a size fourteen, and we are okay with
that. We’re fit and fabulous. But Tally is like a ballerina. She’s slender, very delicate looking.
But that girl is strong as f*ck. She can fight like the rest of us. Unfortunately, Ambrose sees
her like a doll. He thinks he’ll break her. She’s tall like K and I at 5’10, but Amby is like 6’7 and
pure f*cking muscle. He also doesn’t talk and Tally talks nonstop. She told him before her
first tour that she loved him. He looked at her in horror, her words by the way, and walked
away from her. It broke her. Her first album is nothing but sad ballads. Like they are
heartbreaking. So, for the last five years she’s been working basically non–stop. She will be home for Christmas though.”
“That’s so sad.”
“Yeah, but I get her. Anyway, back to the floors. Where was I? Oh yeah, the seventeenth to the
nineteenth floor is the gym area and the gaming area. The twentieth floor is the ballroom and
catering kitchen. The rest of the floors are conference rooms, offices for our managers. The twenty–fifth floor is the cafeteria that Dashawn never eats at. I don’t know why but the food’s great. The floors between the cafeteria and the thirtieth are empty. Grandpa used to have staff apartments there. There are still some suites, and we offer those to visiting clients and their entourage if they are passing through.”
“Does Dasahwn give bonuses to everyone in the building?”
“Yeah, the amount depends on job and performance. Like the people that clean the building, they get the most.”
My jaw dropped at that. “Really?”
“Yeah, they clean our trash and toilets, it’s much appreciated.”
“He amazes me.”
“He’s pretty amazing. Are you in love with him yet?”
I blushed and bit my bottom lip.

“I am. I don’t know how it happened so fast, but I am.”
“That’s because he’s a Lord Of Chaos man. They fall fast and love hard. They are also loyal, protective, and obsessive. I guess you can say that about the women too. There is a man I want very much. I’ve been in love with him for a while. We always hook up at the annual Christmas party. But he never calls me after we hook up. The first time it happened, I thought maybe he regretted it and that was why he didn’t call. So when we came back to work, I just
acted like we were just work friends.”
“Why didn’t you call him?”
“Why should I be the one to chase him? I’m a lady,” she pouted. I giggled.
“You’re absolutely right. Is he dating anyone now?”
“Not that I know of. I’ve never seen him with another woman, and I’ve never been with another
man. Kimber’s dating our head accountant, but I guess dating is a loose term, they mostly just f*ck a lot,” she said, rolling her eyes. “She isn’t ready to settle, but I am. I want kids.”
“You sound like your brother. He wants a baby so badly.”
“No, he wants a baby with you so badly. He told me he’s made you his Old Lady,” she said
with a grin. I nodded.
She hauled me into a hug.
“I’m so happy! He’s been pining for you forever. Just don’t hurt him, okay? I really like you, I’d hate to have to mess your pretty face up.”
I chuckled, “You could try. I won’t go down easy.”
She threw her head back and laughed. A door opened. Dashawn and Ashton came out of his
office. Ashton’s eyes locked onto Cia. She blushed and looked at me.
“I’ll see you later.” She walked off.
I looked at Dashawn. His eyes roamed all over me. He adjusted himself. I bit my lip and felt
myself getting wet. F*ck he does things to me. I looked at Ashton, and he looked at Cia’s
retreating form with longing. Then he said something to Dashawn and Dashawn nodded. So
that’s who she was talking about. They needed to communicate.
I winked at Dashawn and went about my business to finish my task.
An hour later I was finally done stuffing stockings, and I was now running to the dry cleaner to
get Dashawn’s red silk shirt for tonight. I also got him a present. I found a men’s bracelet. It was leather braided and had a flat piece where you could burn something on it. I had the

engraver burn his road name on it and under it on the other side, I had him burn Sweet Girl.
That way,
he could have his biker persona with him during meetings in his business suit. I picked him up a snack and made my way back to his office. Sandra left early to run errands and get her and her husband ready for tonight. I walked in and stopped short.
Dashawn wasn’t in his office. I didn’t know where he was at the moment, but there was a woman in a very tight black t–shirt and tight black leggings. Her blonde hair was in a high ponytail. She was sitting on the couch, her legs and arms crossed, and she looked upset.
I first went to the closet and put Dashawn’s shirt in it. I didn’t see a dress, so I guess it hasn’t come yet. I then put his wrapped present on his desk along with a triple chocolate fudge
brownie.
I turned to the woman who hadn’t said a word to me, but just glared her hatred.
“Can I help you? You should not be in Mr. Krew’s office without his permission.”
“Oh, I have his permission. Or at least I did. I’m Dashawn’s girlfriend.”
“Is that right?” I asked, my left eyebrow raised.
“Yes, we’ve been seeing each other for almost two years.”
“I wasn’t made aware of that.”
“Why should
you be?”
“Because I am his PA. I know his every move. Who are you?”
“Rene Weathers.”
“Are you his former Massage Therapist? He said he no longer needed your services. I have
told you this.”
“You don’t tell me anything. He needs to tell me that. I wasn’t just his Massage Therapist.”
“Yes you were,” said Dashawn as he walked in with a long garment bag and a bulky white
satin bag.
“Hi baby, sorry, had to step out and get your present,” he said, as he came over to me and
kissed me. Then he handed me both bags.
He turned to Rene.
“I’m pretty sure, my PA and girlfriend told you I no longer needed your services. Why are you here?”

“Dashawn, how can you say that? We’ve had a relationship for two years.”
“Rene, you have been my MT for two years, that’s it. I saw you once every two weeks. Never have we dated.”
“But, I thought we had something. We always had a good report and I felt us getting closer.”
“Well, you were wrong. I don’t appreciate you insinuating we had anything more, especially to
the woman I love.”
“Woman you love? I’ve never seen her before.”
“Why would you have?”
“I just thought…”
“Well, you thought wrong, please leave,” he interrupted her.
She left quickly. Dashawn went to his desk and contacted reception.
“Ms Weathers no longer had access to the thirtieth floor. Her access is revoked from now on.
If she does business with anyone else on any other floor, those floors she can have access to. Thank you.”
“Sorry baby, she’s the company’s MT along with five others. Can you send a memo out that if
anyone uses the company’s MT’s that she can be the one for the thirtieth floor.”
“I’ll get right on it. So you bought me a dress for my present?”
“Shoes and accessories too. That’s what’s in the white bag.”
“Thank you.”
“Is this for me?” he asked, pointing at the package and brownie. I nodded.
“Can I open it?”
I nodded again.
He ripped into the present. He opened the box and took out the leather bracelet.
“Samantha, this is fantastic.”
“I thought you could a little piece of leather to wear, so you don’t forget, you are a bada’s biker when you are in CEO mode.”
He chuckled. “I love the inside burn as well.”
“So, you also have a piece of me near you.”

“I love it.”
“I love you,” I said, putting the bags down on a chair and walking toward him. We kissed passionately, our tongues caressing each other. I was moaning when a throat cleared behind
- me.
“Sorry to interrupt, but we have one more staff meeting before tonight,” Cia said.
We both chuckled. I couldn’t wait to see my dress, but it would have to wait. Duty calls.
