stumbled into his life on a whim without a lick of secretarial experience, and Murphy had taken her in.
“Fuck, Chase. Have you been here all night again?”
Before he could respond, a white foam box landed on his desk, disturbing the organized chaos he had going on.
“Do you really expect me to answer that?” Chase popped open the box and sighed at the gourmet omelet from his favorite all-night café. He hadn’t thought of anything other than Eve for so many hours that he’d forgotten to eat, and now his stomach growled furiously for nourishment.
“See, there is a God. And he called up you, Murphy Young, to deliver me the finest food I’ve seen in too long.” Chase grabbed the plastic silverware and ripped into the bag it came in. He freed the fork and dug into the food. The fluffy egg and cheese crossed his taste buds in a ridiculously delightful experience. “Oh yeah, now that’s what I’m talking about.”
“You should try leaving the office every once in a while. You might be surprised by what you find out there.” Murphy settled into the leather couch across from his desk and placed his feet on the coffee table.
“Yeah, fuck you too.”
Rich laughter erupted from his best friend and provider of decent food. “So, I take it you like the shots from yesterday.”
“You tell me.” He grabbed up one of the 8 x 10s he’d already printed in high resolution and handed it over.
Chase knew the instant Murphy’s facial expression turned serious, he’d been right. He’d captured some of his best work with Eve. Once she’d given in to the bindings, everything about her had begun to change. A low whistle from the couch shook Chase from his thoughts and brought his attention back to Murphy.
“This is pretty unbelievable. And why do I have a sudden hunch we’re not getting paid enough for these photos?” Murphy handed the photo back to Chase, who stared into the eyes of the woman he craved more than ever. The combination of fear, lust, and crazy want in her gaze tore into his gut every time he looked.
“What happened when she left? Please tell me you talked to her.”
“Yeah I talked to her all right, but she was pretty damn pissed at me the last time I saw her.”
“Chaaase.” The exasperated sound of Murphy’s voice when he spoke his name amused him. If his friend didn’t know him by now, he never would. “You were mean to her, weren’t you?”
He couldn’t tear his gaze from her photo. Her skin practically glowed against the ropes. Full breasts topped with the perfect berry red nipples drew his attention here, almost as much as they did in person. Oh what he could do with tits like those.
“Are you even listening to me?”
“Yeah, I hear you just fine.”
“Then what the hell? I know you’ve had a bug up your ass since she started working here, but looking at those photos and after her performance yesterday, I thought you’d be thrilled.”
Chase slammed down the picture and turned a hard look to his friend. “That’s exactly the problem, isn’t it? It’s not a performance. Our little receptionist has a submissive streak a mile wide.”
“Even better.” Murphy sat up straight and placed his feet on the floor. “You’ve been out of the play scene for a while, and it’s high time you got on with finding someone new.”
“Don’t try to force this on me. I won’t put up with bullshit like that.”
Murphy barked in laughter. “Force you. Are you fucking kidding me? Your tongue was practically hanging out when I walked in here, and don’t think I missed your reactions yesterday. You want her. So what exactly is the problem?”
“You know, you can go now. I do still have some more work to do this morning, just in case our new protégée decides to show up.”
“What do you mean? Why wouldn’t she? Did you purposely try to scare her off last night?”
Chase rolled his eyes and stood. Movement. He needed movement. Murphy grilling him about Eve was getting under
