‘’You really are so sweet, but you got a lot to learn still’’ I winked again, while adjusting my hard-on to the side of my trousers.

‘’I don’t get it’’ she said cocking her head to one side.

‘’Baby it’s like this: I want the taste of you on my face all day long’’ I said licking my lips down at her. And it was all true, every word of it. As there was no bigger turn-on than lightly scenting the pussy I wanted to be with over my face all day long. I can’t speak for other men, but for me, it was like a fucking aphrodisiac.

‘’Oh’’ she said looking at me rather bashful now, and I could tell she felt a little nervous again over all the new sexually appetizing things she was being introduced to.

‘’You’ll get used to everything baby, I promise’’ I said holding her hand in mine ‘’for now though enjoy your lie-in, and later we’ll meet for lunch as agreed, where I’m taking my beautiful girlfriend to any restaurant of her choice’’ I said leaning in and kissing her cheek.

TAYLOR POV:

‘’I’m your g-girlfriend?’’ I repeated, my stunned expression trying its utmost best to remain calm and adult-like in front of him, when all I wanted right now was to run around the apartment and let loose the crazy excited squeal I could feel coming!

‘’Of course Taylor, I meant everything I said yesterday. I really do like you sweetheart, and like very much what’s developing between us. I only hope still that you feel the same way about me…?’’

‘’I do. Of course I do. You’re already my favorite person in the entire world Hudson’’ I smiled up at him.

‘’You’re such a sweetheart, thank you beautiful, that goes both ways’’ he smiled back. And while I don’t know how I felt about tasting myself on his lips, I was just so wrapped with happiness right now it really didn’t matter, and with that, I let Hudson passionately kiss me before heading off to work.

CHAPTER 29

1 HOUR LATER AT ‘TAZER HEADQUARTERS’…

HUDSON POV:

‘’Nice of you to come back to work Avery. And how did you enjoy your day off?’’ snorted Skipp in a bratty sour tone, as he stood making himself a morning coffee in my office, not raising his head even once to look at me’’

‘’I thought I told you she was off limits’’ I muttered throwing him back his mood.

I hated playing tit for tat because I loved Skipp, I really did. He was so much more than just a best friend to me, more close to the brother I never had, and the one guy from the start who always had my back. Having said that…he at times was the living, breathing, embodiment of a Patrick Bateman. His overabundance of wealth often camouflaged him in with Seattle’s dark elite, amongst some of whom were the encompass of hungry wolves, the ones who will stop at nothing until your demise becomes their greatest victory.

He remained settled around me, mainly because I was the one who’d given him his opportunity to reach the successful status he is now, and enjoy the wild player lifestyle he liked to lead. And while confident he wouldn’t ever step out of line and do anything malicious to hurt me or my business, I still didn’t want him anywhere near Taylor.

I of course didn’t doubt for one second that she couldn’t look after herself. She was street-smart and savvy, and her intelligence certainly not to be overlooked. But at the same time she possessed a unique innocence, one I was both very much attracted to, and protective of.

‘’So eloquently put. I assume you’re referring to your little PA friend Taylor?’’ he said, turning and grinning his usual ear-to-ear smile at me now.

‘’I am’’ I said walking across the room and slinging my suit jacket over my office chair.

‘’Coffee?’’ he offered.

‘’No’’

‘’Well, if your clenched jaw is anything to go by ole boy, then I assume the magic’s finally happened and you’re now sleeping with her’’ he said cocking his head to the side grinning wider at me when I didn’t answer ‘’as I thought’’ he smirked ‘’well, in my defense she really is very pretty. But regarding me hitting on her as you Americans so humorously put it, I’m afraid I must blame my shameful behavior that night on my excessive alcohol intake. Either way it was no excuse, and for that buddy I offer you my sincerest apologies. It won’t happen again’’

My face softened a little now and my jaw unclenched ‘’awe no that’s okay Skipp, don’t sweat it. And hey, I’m sorry too. I guess that was the jealous man in me talking’’ I smiled across at him, knowing his apology to me was as genuine as mine was to him, as were also the insightful accuracy of his words over feelings I held for Taylor, which evidently could no longer be hidden from him ‘’and uh yeah, we um…we did sleep together’’

‘’Tut tut, and here I was thinking you were a ‘never mix business with pleasure kind of guy’’ he teased placing his coffee down and going over instead to the drinks cabinet, where out came the Rojas red wine he began pouring for us.

‘’She was uh…she’d never…’’

‘’Ooh! Score for the ole boy’’ sang Skipp, his eyes dancing all happy and proud for me ‘’although I must remind you, you still have another 8 cherries to pop before you can even match my score. And by then, who knows how many more pus-‘’

‘’Okay Skipp, I get it I get it ’’ I half chuckled.

‘’Gotta re-live those proud moments’’ he smirked.

‘’Oh no doubt I will, but not in the way your dirty mind is thinking’’ I laughed ‘’on a serious note though it actually turned into a very precious moment for me’’ I smiled re-living it all again ‘’…something I won’t ever forget.’’
