at her.
                She held her hand over her
mouth to cover her smile, and we had a good giggle.  Just then there was a
knock at my door.  Samira opened my door to find Joshua standing there.
                “Oh, Mr. Hunter!  I was just
leaving,” and she ducked out.
                He closed the door and sat
down.
                “I want to apologize for Natalia’s
behavior.  She is very territorial and has been asking me all kinds of
questions about you.  Apparently there is a buzz going around about us.”  He
held my gaze and I swear my insides turned to mush.  He is so beautiful.
                “A buzz?”
                “Office gossip.  Just ignore
it if you hear anything.  Discretion, right?”  His dark eyes smoldered.
                “Of course.”  I wanted to take
him right there in my office.  Being in his presence, in that small office, was
clouding my thoughts.  I literally shook my head and then heard his soft
chuckle.
                “Everything okay?”
                I realized what I had done in
front of him and felt my cheeks flush.  “Yes, fine.”  I cleared my throat. 
“I’m glad you’re here because I wanted to talk to you about your side of the
contract.  We have been here for a while now and you have yet to give me any
formal instructions on specific things I should be doing.”
                His eyes didn’t hide his
amusement as he sat studying me.
                “I have to say, that I love
your tenacity Sarah.  You really are the kind of person we want working with us
at Hunter International.”
                Love.  He said it.  Maybe
not the way I wanted, but he said it.   Okay, now I was losing it.  I was
making something out of what was probably nothing.  Snap out of it Sarah! 
Focus!
                “Thank you, I appreciate that.”
                “Okay, you’re right.  It’s
time I gave you more information.  But before I do that, what are your plans
for this evening?”  He had a cautious, yet stern look on his face.
                He knew that I had dinner
plans with Conrad. 
                “I am supposed to have dinner
with Conrad this evening.”  Fire danced in his eyes.
                He did not look pleased.  “I
am afraid that will not be possible.  Since the meeting was postponed, I have a
lot of work for you to do.  I expect you’ll be here until well into the night. 
Your partner training officially begins today.”
                His jealous streak was worse
than I imagined.   But I couldn’t protest because my ultimate goal was to
become a partner on the fast track.  So I just said okay and we proceeded to go
over a detailed list of the people and projects I should get to know and work
on.  He told me that it was important that I get myself in front of people so
they know who I am. 
                “Your reviews and other
partner’s opinions of you are what matter down the line.  They are going to
want to know how effective you are, if you contribute to the Profits &
Loss, and if you have the support of the people you work with.  The best way to
do that is to go the extra mile whenever you a chance.  If someone needs extra
help, extra hands, an extra brain, for anything, you should be the first one to
volunteer.  In the end, the thing that will get you noticed is your work
product, your reviews and your relationships.  This is not a position where you
can take a backseat and silently do well.  People need to know who you are. 
And I have no doubt that you can do this Sarah.  You are extremely bright and
determined.  I look forward to the day that I get to make the call telling you
that you’ve made partner.”
                “You make the call?”
                “Yes, as CEO, I am the one to
deliver the
