295 Mr. Reynolds, the new client 2 (2/2)

Sometime later…

”Q, I need to go to work…” Brianna whined when Quentin refused to let her get out of the bed.

They ordered room service for lunch and ended up making love. And it was wonderful, as usually.

”Really? I missed you.”

Brianna giggled. ”I left Seattle on Sunday. Today is Wednesday. We didn't see each other for two days.”

Quentin ignored her argument. Two days without Brianna is like two eternities. ”Can't you work remotely?”

Brianna could not believe how clingy he is. It's not that she does not enjoy Quentin's company, but she came to San Francisco mentally prepared that she will not see him for a month and probably longer. So, this is like an unexpected bonus.

”This is my third day at work. I don't have meetings, but I need to go there so that they don't think I'm slacking.”

”Your father adores you. He will never say that you are slacking.”

Brianna agreed with Quentin's words. ”Yeah. But I'm sure that my cousin Tom is giving him a hard time. I don't want to give him more ammunition.”

”What is his problem?”

Brianna shrugged. ”He is insecure and believes that I came to take over as the next CEO.”

Quentin observed Brianna. ”Did you?”

”That was not my intention.”

Quentin sensed that there is more to it. ”But?”

”He is pissing me off more than he should and several times I caught myself thinking that I will get that CEO position only so that I can make him vomit blood from anger.”

Quentin chuckled. That sounds like his fiery Goddess.

Brianna was about to mention her leaving the bed and going back to work, but instead, she asked: ”How long are you staying?”

”I have a dinner meeting with some investors tonight in Portland, so… I will leave soon.”

Brianna was visibly disappointed. She remembered that Quentin said how he arrived at San Francisco that morning. He came only to see her and she knows that the deal was only an excuse because they could have done it online. Her heart felt warm and fuzzy.

”You came for several hours and you got a hotel room…”

Quentin smiled smugly. ”What can I say? I like to be prepared. I guessed that if you got your place, it's not ready and if you didn't get it then you would take me to your family's home, and I don't have time to socialize with your family. The hotel sounded like a good option. By the way… I've got this room for a full week, so feel free to use it until your furniture arrives.”

Brianna wondered if he can be any more thoughtful. Quentin is amazing.

”Mr. Reynolds, you are making me fall for you beyond recovery.”

Quentin's eyes flashed in surprise at Brianna's sudden confession. ”Did you just admit that you are in love with me?”

Brianna paused before inhaling forcibly. ”I guess I did. I love you, Quentin. And if you break my heart, I will break your legs.”

Quentin stifled a laugh. ”I was about to say, 'me too', but I would never break your legs no matter how much you hurt me. Those are divine legs of my fiery Goddess and I worship them.”

Quentin lowered his head and started trailing kisses on her neck.

”I worship every part of your body…” Quentin murmured between kisses. ”…and soul... my Goddess...”

Brianna felt that Quentin shifted his body and that he is on top of her, and she knew that another wild ride is beginning. She was unable to think about the time and work, and weren't they supposed to discuss the deal between Reynolds publishing and Harper Investments? All those thoughts disappeared because her focus was completely on Quentin. Her boyfriend.
