me.
    “Are you sure we are at the right place?”
    “I’m sure.” He laughed. “My father gave me specific instructions to let you pick and customize any car you would like. There is no cap on how much you can spend.” He winked.
    I swallowed hard in disbelief. “You have got to be shitting me.” I whispered.
    “What was that?”
    “Nothing. Let’s go, I guess.”
    The aroma of brand new leather seats filled my nose with happiness. I took in a deep breath and began searching for my perfect car. I knew exactly what I wanted but I couldn’t find one on the showroom floor anywhere. I spotted it out of the corner of my eye a moment later by mere chance. It was nestled into the back corner of the showroom and I made a beeline for the beautiful piece of artwork.
    I ran my fingers up the sleek hood as I made my way to the driver’s side door. My face was beaming as my skin slid across the fresh alpine white coat of paint. I opened the door and fell instantly in love. This was the first time I had ever believed in love at first sight. I was sitting in a 2012 BMW 328i x-drive coupe. It had everything I ever wanted, a sunroof, bamboo anthracite wood trim, grey leather interior, satellite radio, iPod and iPhone adapter in the center console with shelf and navigation system. Yes, I had researched this car a million times. This was love!
    I watched Sloan walking towards me through the windshield. He could tell I was extremely happy and this made him smile. His shoulders looked inviting and I wanted to jump into his muscular embrace. I wanted to feel our bodies intertwine with one another. Plain and simple, I just wanted him, any which way I could.
    “Do you like it?’ He asked.
    “Like isn’t the correct word to use in this case, I am in love with this car!” I smiled.
    “Perfect. I’ll go grab a salesman.”
    I watched him walk away, knowing that I wanted to see his backside over and over again. I shook my head to dislodge my unprofessional thoughts and climbed out of the car. I decided to take a peek at the price tag while Sloan was off finding someone to pay. Shocked, I clasped my hands over my mouth, this time to prevent myself from screaming a profanity in the BMW showroom. The car as is was $47,975 US dollars. There was no way I could accept this car. I grappled with my decision for about sixty seconds, and then I just decided to let this happen. I knew Jim Holden, and he was an extremely stubborn man. Putting up a fight wouldn’t change the outcome. I had to face it; I was now an owner of a brand new BMW. Pure elation settled into my expression, quite nicely I might add.
    A short time later, Sloan was back by my side with a small surprise. “Here are your keys, my dear.”
    “No way! Thank you so much.” And then, I slid my arms around his neck and gave him a huge hug.
    “Your welcome, but all I did was sign a paper. I’m sure my father would enjoy a hug like that though.” He winked.
    I blushed. “I save those for special people.” I winked back.
    I arrived back at the office about an hour later and I was beyond excited. I half ran to my office to share my news with Annie. We both bounced around for about half a second, as we noticed everyone in the office was suddenly staring at us. I straightened out my pencil skirt and walked into my away.
    I reached for the phone to call, who else, Shelby, but there was a knock at my door just as I finished dialing her number. I quickly put the receiver back in its cradle and summoned whomever it was to come in. There he stood, looking better than I had remembered from an hour and half ago. I was suddenly nervous and aware of everyone in the whole building. I stood up slowly as he closed the door behind him.
    “I just wanted to make sure t hat we were still on for tomorrow night?” His amber eyes turned dark and wanting.
    “Of course, unless something has changed on your end?” I prayed that nothing had changed.
    “Well actually, I was wondering if we could go
