As soon as I went in, it was just us two. My eyes took its time taking in sight of the spacious area that occupied the corner of the building; his office was painted grey, in ordered shelves on the side, an abstract painting with the enormous windows giving breathtaking views of the City. My eyes landed on the center of his office only to see him on his seat in a casual manner, eyeing me like a hawk.

Another breathtaking view I see.

I moved forward with a sly smile as my eyes twinkle with mirth placing the portfolio on the dark glass surface of his desk, uncluttered.

"Mom wanted to give this to you." I spoke as I lowered my voice, teasingly biting my lower lip at the process.

He stood with his jaw clenched, obviously holding himself back. But to no extent, he moved closer smiling to himself with a couple of buttons he already opened, giving me a peak of his chiseled body.

"Is that so? Or my baby sister just wanted to see me?" He cockily said with his boyish chuckle.

"Please." I smirk, confident to push him over the edge.

He slowly moved his gaze to my lips placing his hands on my bottom while I stifle a moan then his gaze was back up, our eyes met both heavily breathing and anticipating for the next, a close lipped smile etched on our faces, laughing for a bit. We moved our heads closer as I lightly brush my lips to his, making him groan in pleasure and with no boundaries, he started to kiss me.

The kiss was slow filled with lust, his hand cradled my cheek and my neck, caressing my skin while I had my arms on his chest feeling him with desire and need. I slowly slid my tongue on his mouth as he also did, deepening the kiss as I felt the buttons he was trying to open on my clothing, showing my cleavage and revealing a hint of my balconette bra that was offering little to no coverage. I tasted him tentatively with my tongue, softly grazing my lip on his lower lip letting out a moan, his warm breath traveled into my face.

He moved his hand down further on my shirt as he was about to strip it off of me. Conscious, I took all of my self control to get him to stop. I pushed him off slightly and his eyes were a bit surprised but were not disappointed.

"Not now, it's too much to risk." I shake my head, practically thinking.

"Just one quickie?" He asked, playfully smiling while he continues his feathered kisses on my neck, holding me by my waist.

I laughed softly and rolled my eyes at the question. "As much as I'd like to, no."

I giggle, flirting. My hands travelled down along his pants, his erection was too much to handle.

"Come to lunch with me." His voice was gruff, with a tone that left me no room to think.

My hands stopped into a halt, biting my lower lip to suppress myself from doing so.

"Is this a form of bribery? You trying to get under my pants buying me lunch." I tilt my eyebrow confused, chuckling from the question.

"No." He laughed shaking his head in disbelief of my sarcasm.

"I would just like to treat you for lunch and I'm not taking no for an answer." He was dead serious as his face showed no hint of humor and his eyes were focused on my features.

I sighed trying to make up my mind. "Mom would kill me, she got me here in the first place to help her out and this isn't exactly the idea that she's in for."

"You'll be fine and besides you're with me. It's 12:00, the break between our work just started. We might as well eat, come." A stern expression on his face and he moved giving me no time to answer.

I stayed glued to my position, analyzing my options. Sensing that I didn't followed he looked back as he kept a straight face, waiting for me to go. Dropping my worries my feet carried me as we both went out of his office. It's quite surprising that I like spending my time with him, it was not just about the sex though but it was the attitude and maturity that got me longing for more. Anything that satisfies me is where I'd definitely go and besides I was hungry, girls gotta eat.

Karen gave us a court nod and a smile as she understood that we were out for some personal time already liking her as a secretary. Matheo guided me along the hallway and taking the elevator, there were a couple of looks while he was nonchalant as always but mostly, everyone was just minding their own business.

"I know a restaurant near the company, its mostly where I take lunch if I have the free time." He stated giving me minor details of his personal life, eager to hear him share I listened.

"To where is this exactly?" I curiously asked.

"A couple of blocks down the street. You'll love it." We both started walking side by side on the street, enjoying the tropical day of Cali.

Rosalinè, a downtown bistro he was referring to. Definitely a place where I'd enjoy and indulge myself to eat and relax, I couldn't contain myself smiling at the view amused by the establishment.

"You like it?" Matheo grinned as he was surprised by my reaction.

"Absolutely." I replied.

The man surely loves surprising the heck out of me.

We took a seat at the far side of the area to the right, a few people were at that point. Tourists were enjoying a few cocktails, lunch appointments, families getting together and not to mention the place was well lit, it was a breath of fresh air. We got on the menu right away, ordering the meals that we would like to savor.

"You seem to enjoy yourself." He stated quietly observing me.

"Well, this place is great." I laugh at my embarrassment, acting like a kid on a candy store.

"I knew you would love it." He genuinely smiled to himself, like he was pondering a thought.

"Really? So you just read minds now?" I tease giggling at the same time.

"Not really but if you would like to put it that way." He lets out a throaty chuckle, leaning on his chair with his arms crossed across his chest.

Our conversation was interrupted by the waiter placing our meals on the table. After they were set, we divulge into the exquisite taste of the restaurant's cuisine.

"So, tell me a little about yourself." He spoke after taking a bite of his fusion paella.

I smiled as he said it. The fact that he insisted and recognizes, us trying to interact with each other without the bed talk seems applaudable for me.

"Well, I-uh love to do adventures, I might be social but I'm a private person when it comes to personal details about my life, definitely love Mexican food, nervous when it comes to children and pets I really don't know why trust me and I have two dildos hidden at my drawer. Yeah, that's about it. How about you?" I said in a hurry taking a deep breath after.

On the other hand, Matheo shook his head while he softly bit his bottom lip amused by my statement as I bursted into laughter.

"You're just something else huh." He laughs with me and I can't help but rolled my eyes, flattered of the comment.

"I was actually raised in Chicago but we moved here in California; my mother went out of the country and eventually remarried, I'm the only child. I stopped college for a while but I intend to go back but not at this point. Fusion food is what I love, I don't like chocolates and I would love an adventure after all this hectic schedule in the company."

His statement was short just like I did mine. I thought we mostly don't like to share all too private issues of our lives. I nod in agreement, smiling back at him getting to know him better enjoying his company, the food, the restaurant and the time.

"Did you had any past relationships currently this year?" I asked, surprising myself for maybe I had been a bit nosy.

But I definitely made sure to ask, I surely don't want some crazy bitch on my back accusing me of stealing his man though.

"It was a long time ago back when I was a teenager but now, no." He shakes his head. "I don't do relationships." He adds a lopsided smile plastered on his face, clearly he wasn't into it.

"You?" He adds, carefully looking at me in the eye.

"Yeah, that jerk you fought last time. But now, there isn't really. I try to steer away from boys as much as I'd like to." A grimace came over my face, leaving a bad taste of memory from the past.

"Hmm." What seems like a sound of agreement or disbelief came from his mouth. "What about Jack? Who's he?" His tone went serious for a second, intimidating.

I chuckle at the sight, as I rake my hair through my fingers. "I never had any serious relationship with Jack, that's all that is." I respond.

Then I heard him murmur a word what sounds like better and be. Then he never spoke again, as he ate his food in silence.

Someone's moody as fuck.

After an hour of lunch, we were done. I insisted that we should go back but he was a little hesitant, after a few back and forth argument of course I won like a pro. Now, we were on our way back to the company taking a walk on the streets.

"Thanks for the treat, Theo." I spoke in a genuine manner for I enjoyed the lunch.

"You don't have to thank me and besides I had a great time. I might be as well thanking you." He replied while I was smiling like a lunatic, grateful that he had a great time.

"I might come home later late tho, but you take care alright." With the sincere look in his eyes, his brows furrowed like he was in a deep thought after he spoke, my breath hitched like I was on the edge of a cliff.

It was definitely not the arousal but it was something that I couldn't describe. My emotions were mixed and surprisingly, I liked what he said.

"Always am and you too ... I know you can ace that shit." My lips pressed into a thin smile as I brush the thought while I try to give him an. encouragement.

"Thanks, but since when did I didn't?" He teasingly questioned and I scoffed of his playful manner while he erupted into laughter.

Then I uttered good luck, as we both bid our farewell. Going on to the separate way, I went back at mom's office with a beam on my face.

This day was different, I liked it.
