- REVIEW -
- EXCERPT -
I took a few minutes to
calm myself in the restroom before I stepped out and walked toward reception.
As I rounded the corner and saw Valerie standing in front of my closed office
door with her ear pressed against it, I became confused. “What are you doing?”
I asked.
She let out a little
squeal and turned to face me. With her hand pressed over her heart, she took in
a deep breath. “Oh my God,” she whispered before taking in another breath.
“He’s in there.” She pointed toward my office door.
“Who?” I asked, wrinkling
my eyebrows at her in confusion. This was so unlike Valerie. She was always so
calm and collected, but she was seriously rattled at the moment.
“Mr. Kovalsky,” she added
in a whisper.
I rarely called him that
since he insisted on R.J. But the fact he was waiting in my office first thing
in the morning before I even arrived gave me that sick feeling of being
followed all over again.
“Um, how long has he been
here?”
“Seconds, literally. I
just closed your door. He sort of gives me the creeps.” She shivered as she
stepped away from my door.
“Yeah,” I said as I
reached for the doorknob. “Me too,” I confessed as I turned it and entered.
“Good morning.” His deep,
raspy tone did nothing for my nerves. “You look quite lovely this morning,” he
added. I forced a smile as I rounded my desk and placed my briefcase on top of
it.
I looked down at my
clothing and hid my exasperation, or at least I hoped I did. “I’m sorry, R.J.,
but did we have an appointment this morning I’ve forgotten about?” I chose to
dive right in. There was really no reason for small talk.
The guy was becoming more
of an issue than a client. I had spent hours upon hours showing him every
property I could find, yet he always acted as if it wasn’t quite what he was
hoping for. I had a feeling he would never find the right place, which made me
think there was more to this man than Margo had told me.
“Not at all,” he said as
he lounged back in the chair on the other side of my desk and crossed his ankle
over his left knee. He stared back at me with that look that made me want to
run away. Valerie’s earlier comment came to mind. Mr. R.J. Kovalsky was
definitely a very strange man.
“I was in the area,” he
said, and I shifted my gaze back to his. “I was hoping maybe I could change
your mind about dinner. Possibly convince you to give a man a shot.”
“A shot at what,
exactly?” I knew I shouldn’t say anything, but I was honestly growing quite
irritated with his advances. Especially after I had told him I wasn’t
interested. I had a job to do, that was it. I wanted nothing from this man, and
that commission check I was looking forward to cashing after selling him the
biggest property I could find no longer meant as much.
“You are a very beautiful
woman, Gabriella.” He smirked, and that nauseous feeling formed a lump at the
base of my throat. “I just think you’re missing an opportunity at something
that may possibly be great for the both of us.”
I stared back at him,
trying to maintain my composure. I was pretty sure if I picked up my desk phone
and heaved it at his head, I would be facing battery charges, but it sure
sounded great. The idea of it bouncing off his arrogant ass only made me smile
in amusement. But of course the dickhead took my smile for something it wasn’t.
“See, you like the idea
of it too,” he added with a cocky grin.
“No, actually, I was
enjoying the vision of you writhing in pain after my phone collided with your
forehead.”
He tilted his head to the
side, and the smile fell from his lips.
Oh fuck, I actually did
say that out loud.
He stood from the chair,
and his quick movements caught me off guard. I too stood up, pushing my own
chair back in the process.
“Well, I never took you
for the aggressive type, but a little pain keeps things interesting.” He ran
his tongue over his bottom lip. “I’ll admit the idea of your cries do make my
heart race a bit.”
Forget about my early
state of nausea. It had now turned to bile that was rising in my throat. My
entire chest burned from it. I suddenly felt trapped as my hands began to
shake. I fisted them, trying to hide my obvious panic, but it was too late. His
smile grew wider, like scaring me excited him.
