Red As A Tomato

Austin chuckled inwardly and took a step closer to Jazmine. He let her bask in her euphoria for a second before moving even closer.

"Tell me," he asked in a smooth whisper that made Jazmine want to melt there. He legs were starting to get wobbly, worsening when she felt him coiling an arm around her waist and pulling her towards his solid chest. "How do I make you feel?"

Jazmine's eyes snapped wide open in shock. Her cheeks had started to turn red.

"S- sir," Jazmine stuttered; she could hardly breathe. It had suddenly gotten hot in the room. So hot that she was starting to feel sweaty. "I've barely known you to give an answer to that, sir," she managed to squeeze the words out of her mouth.

She needed to get away from him as fast as she could! He presence and touch on her was doing things to her; things she never thought of; things that made the space between her thighs burn!

Jazmine tried to take a step back, to move away, but Austin's arms around her waist only tightened in a successful attempt to pull her closer.

He leaned in breathing heavily on her nape, so that the warmth sent shocks coursing through every vein in her body, causing her to shiver.

"Look into my eyes, Jazmine," he drawled and placed his lips on her neck. Jazmine jerked forcefully like an electric current had been passed through her body. Just when she was starting to feel better, he started to suck on her neck, stopping after a few seconds to look into her eyes.

"Good girl. Now tell me, how do I make you feel? Hmm?"

Jazmine gulped.

Something told her that her only way out of this was to reply and to reply only the truth.

"I- you make me fe-" the words stuck in her throat, refusing to come out. That's when the door banged open and Alexander barged in, eyes widening at their intimate position.

Jazmine's cheeks turned redder. She quickly looked away from Alexander, while trying to break out of Austin's grip but failing.

"You should learn to knock, Alex." Austin tightened his grip around Jazmine's waist and pulled her closer so that her chest touched his.

Alexander chuckled and walked into the kitchen wordlessly. A few seconds later, he walked out of the room without saying anything to anyone.

He knew he had seen enough and if he spoke, his brother might just have his blood in a royal chalice of skulls.

Austin smirked and raised a brow at Jazmine who was squirming like a little bug in it's prey's hands.

"Where were we?" He did not wait for a reply before saying, "I'm all ears, Jazmine."

Jazmine had long lost control of her legs. They had turned jelly and she would have already fallen but for Austin's strong grip.

"S-sir, i-"

Austin placed a finger over her lips and shook his head slowly.

"Austin," he whispered, "I have a name. Say it... Jazmine."

Jazmine swallowed past the lump in her throat and looked away but he held her face in place with his other hand.

"Sir- Austin." Jazmine voice was as gentle as a dove.

"See." He smirked with a tilt of his head. His eyes were focused solely on her plump lips; it was hard to not think about them when everyday, she worked in the same space as him. "It was not hard."

Jazmine bit her lower lip subconsciously and heard Austin tsk.

"You should not do that around me," he warned.

Jazmine was confused.

What did she do? She had even stopped trying to break out of his grip as it was useless. She would never match to half of Austin's strength.

Once again, she bit her lip and Austin shook his head and closed his eyes. Jazmine did not understand what he was talking about so, she continued biting her lower lip out of nervousness.

"Sir, I think we nee- omph!" Jazmine's words were sealed with a kiss.

Austin closed his eyes and let his tongue roam about inside her mouth. After a few seconds, Jazmine let her tongue play tag with his.

Subconsciously, she wrapped one of her arms around his neck and the other, she dipped into his hair. Austin smiled inwardly and wrapped his other arm around her back, while the other one stayed around her waist.

When he pulled away, they were both breathless but Jazmine was as red as a fresh tomato. She could not even meet his gaze due to embarrassment. She shifted slightly in his arms and was finally able to break out; he had let her.

Austin watched her run into the kitchen and close the door behind her. He smiled and shook his head. He knew she was shy but he had enjoyed every second of the kiss.

He ran a pair of fingertips through his thick hair before letting it ruffle. He grabbed a document and placed it on the table, intending to prepare before the next session of the meeting.

Personally, Austin would not care about meetings like this that took too long. They have always dug deep into the time he would have used for something important. But, the company still needed his management, even though it ran well without him.

Also, the company had always counted as one of his favorite interests. Well, recently, he found himself being interested in his assistant.

Austin could not deny the fact that he found her very amusing. For some reason, he was curious to find out more about her so, he had run an extensive background check on her and according to his results, he has found her to be clever and smart.

Although, one thing struck him as odd about her. Her resume, it was fabricated. To think she even had a legit certificate of graduation from a renowned law school, he was an inkling to who might have helped her secure it.

But, looking besides the fabricated resume, Austin couldn't even argue with the fact that Jazmine Roosevelt was a very confident, presentable, and competitive person who knew her job well.

One thing he could not quite figure out was why she had fabricated her resume. It left him confused.

Now, he was sure he wanted to keep Jazmine Roosevelt closer, until he found her secrets for he knew she had some to share.

The door to the kitchen opened and Jazmine came out, looking more composed than when she had left. She grabbed her pen and notebook before going to sit across Austin, careful enough to avoid eye contact with him.

"Sir, what am I supposed to do?" She asked.

Austin looked up at her before looking back at the document in his hand.

"We would be returning to the meeting room now, Miss Roosevelt. I received word from Alexander that my presence is required."

Jazmine nodded. She placed the notebook and pen down and stood up.

"In that case, I should go and change." She said and Austin hummed. Jazmine turned to leave but stopped halfway.

"What about Alicia, sir?" She asked.
