not at all.” He examines it.” Now I can actually shave.” He rubs his chin.
    I pout at him.” I really like your scruffy face.” It’s funny how he sometimes intimidates me, and sometimes I really get a kick out of sassing him.
    “Do you now?”
    Stella interrupts our moment again.” I’m sorry, sir, but you asked me to keep you on schedule today. If you don’t hurry up, you’re going to be late for Sam’s graduation.”
    He closes his eyes tight like he is trying to switch gears.” Thank you, Stella. Call someone to repair the kitchen, please. And please, don’t worry about it.”
    “Yes, sir,” Stella says, and I can hear the relief in her voice.
    “It’s okay,” I say. “I need to get going anyway. I promised Anna a girls’ night out.” I grab my purse and August follows me to the door. He calls Fred and asks him to meet me out front. As we reach the front door, he has a crease in his forehead.
    “What are you worried about?” I ask him as I rub the crease between his brow.
    “Will you ladies be drinking tonight?”
    “I’m sure we will.”
    “Let me have Fred be your designated driver.”
    “That’s not necessary. We’ll take an Uber. Besides, Fred is tied up with you and Sam tonight.”
    “I can drive the Jag. I’d rather know you two be safe.” Before I can argue with him, he has Fred back on the phone. He gives Fred the new plan: to be my chauffeur. Poor Fred, August runs him everywhere.
    Fred is already parked in the driveway. August opens the limo’s back door.” Give me your phone.”
    I dig it out of my purse and decide not to argue with him. He takes it and programs in a number.” This is Fred’s number. Call him anytime you need him.” Fred nods in agreement and August kisses my cheek.” He will stay close to you tonight. Have fun, but not too much fun.”
    I climb into the limo and August shuts the door. Fred eases out of the driveway through the front gates.
    “I’m sorry Fred. You don’t have to be at my beckoned call.”
    He smiles at me in the rearview mirror.” It’s my job miss. Wherever Mr. Rylan wants to send me, I go.”
    “Is he always so bossy and controlling?”
    He laughs, “Yes. Yes, he is.”
    I don’t think I like the idea of being bossed around, this is something we are going to have to discuss outside of our employee-employer relationship. I do like how he took control when we were in his office. When he kissed me and hushed me at the same time it turned me on. No doubt. I scowl. So I like him to be in charge, but not too much in charge.
    My last boyfriend, in college, had no idea what he was doing during sex. It was all about his pleasure, not mine. I get the feeling that August knows how to please a woman. Everything about his is commanding. I want him to touch me. And I want to touch him back.
    I think about his hard body next to mine. His arms and shoulders are well defined. I would love to see him completely naked. I’m getting wet just thinking about him. I need to stop.

    I thank Fred for driving me and rush into the apartment. I can’t wait to tell Anna about the kiss, and how close we were to having sex. I know I signed a nondisclosure with him about his father and I will have to honor that, but he didn’t say I couldn’t talk about him with my best friend.
    I tell her all about it as we get ready for our girls’ night out.
    “I told you he liked you!” she squeals.” I can’t believe he is flying you in his personal plane to Seattle. I have always wanted to visit that town. I’ve heard its so cool. I’m so jealous.”
    “Don’t be jealous. I’m scared to death. I don’t know anything about fancy parties.” I plop down on the bed.
    “Just be yourself. Don’t let people with money intimidate you!We’ll have fun dress shopping.” She is so excited.” But for now, let’s get you in something really hot for our night out. I want to dance and pick up men. If we show a little bit of that cleavage of yours, men
