His Absolute Arrangement: A Scandalous Billionaire Love Story (Jessika, #1)
met, you..."
    I'd broken his book.  I didn't mean to.  It was an extremely rare copy of Dante's Inferno and while browsing through his bookshelves when I shouldn't have been, hired on as a temporary day worker to clean his office while the regular woman was on vacation, I'd broken it.  Asher came in on me after getting out of one of his meetings earlier.  He'd seen me, startled me, I'd dropped it.  The book went crashing to the ground and the spine cracked, cover broke off, pages scattering through the air.
    The entire incident was both a blur and one of my most unforgettable memories.  He'd dragged me into his office afterwards, citing a need to punish me, to leave me scattered and in disarray like the pages of his book.  My clothes, tossed aside.  Pantyhose pulled down.  More.  I lay on the table of his meeting room, shivering, but not because I was cold.
    It was so wrong right then, so horribly illicit and incorrect.  I knew he was married to someone else when it happened, but I'd seen his image on TV and in magazines more than once, and...  Asher was gloriously handsome.  Yes, he was rich, but my God, he was sexy, too.  Demanding, aloof, confusing, and more.  I shouldn't have.  I shouldn't have done that and I shouldn't have liked it, but what was I supposed to do?
    I didn't know.  I was unsure what else I could have done then, and to be honest I didn't know if I even wanted to do anything different.  Asher hadn't been a victim of my feminine charms, and I hadn't been a victim of his commanding wiles; we'd victimized each other.
    Punishment, yes, and afterwards he'd made me finish cleaning his office while mostly naked, but before that he told me he needed to rid me of my distraction.  His hand touched me, fingers felt me.  I was shivering, but it was because I was aroused to an intense degree.  Asher rid me of my immediate distraction in the span of a couple of minutes, plying me with his fingers, touching me, pleasuring me.
    He fucked me.  With his fingers.  He kept his constrained cock hidden within his pants, but he fingerfucked me so magnificently that when I came, I felt like my entire body was trying to hold his hand.  We were lovers, walking down the boardwalk, holding ice cream with one hand and holding hands with the other, blissful and happy, except so much more than that, too.  My body ached with a need and a longing I didn't even know, and while Asher had sated me then, calmed my distraction, he'd left me wanting more, too.
    I didn't think that those thoughts, those feelings, our actions, were the mark of someone who wasn't a whore.  A homewrecker.  A slut.  His marriage was loveless, yes.  He rarely saw Beatrice then, and they were divorced now.  But, still, regardless of any of that, did a proper lady just let a billionaire CEO spread her legs upon his private meeting room table and let him ravish her with his fingers?
    Probably not.  I'd let him do it again, though.
    "Jessika," Asher said, firm.  "You aren't a whore.  Yes, perhaps our love life is a little... empowered."
    "Empowered?" I asked with a laugh.  "Asher, we just almost made love in the elevator.  I kind of wanted to make love in the elevator."
    "Your ovulation cycle," he said, as a point of fact.
    "You're going to blame this on my ovulation cycle?" I asked.  "We've just got to have sex anywhere and everywhere for the next week because we're trying to have a baby, is that it?"
    He shrugged.  "I'm just trying to say that you aren't a whore.  You're not a homewrecker, either.  You're none of that.  Just because we have an enjoyable sex life it doesn't mean that's a bad thing.  What are we supposed to do?  In, out, completely silent, not enjoying it, until I somehow manage to cum, we're done, and go about the rest of our day?"
    "I don't know," I said.  "I think some people do that."
    "I'm not going to do that," he said.
    "I just think we should calm it down a little," I said.  I had no idea what I was
