Hunter

Once again, my mind was filled with nothing but Katie. Yesterday, we shared the most intense and passionate kiss of my entire life. When she pulled away I want nothing more than to pull her back to me and devour her. She’s a tease I simply can’t get rid of.

“Damn bro, you’re whipped.” Cody commented as he caught me staring out into space. I wiped my face with my hands getting rid of my dream state face. “And she’s not even doing anything,” I pointed out. It’s frustrating how a girl can have so much control over me, and not to mention I’m the boss here.

“You know there’s a word for what you’re feeling,” he stated as he sat in one of the chairs in front of my desk. “Dark magic?” I humored but he suggested the one thing that didn’t cross my mind.

“You’re falling in love,”

My head snapped towards my best friend who was smiling. “I knew one way or another that you’ll fall for one of the girls. Now you’re tasting your own medicine, and let me guess. By yesterday’s events, it’s not going your way?” he asked.

“Yesterday’s events?” How the hell does he know about Katie and I?

“Everyone knows bro! It was the whole building was talking about… curtesy to the marketing department,” he replied. I did cause a scene at her department and literally dragged her out of there.

But damn, it was worth it.

What I would kill just to kiss those soft addicting lips again?

I shook my head from such thoughts. I couldn’t afford to fall in love. Love is just a weakness which is why I use women to my own desire and cut all ties once I’m done. It was simple and easy. But Katie makes everything so difficult.

“I don’t understand her man… At first, she’s so alluring and she shows that she’s enjoying my company but she won’t go to the next level with me. She’s so frustrating!” I said as I ran my hands through my hair, messing up my neatly brushed hair.

“Heck, if I was a girl and I knew your reputation then I would definitely not go to the next level with you,” Cody said which made me look at him saying not helping.

“Just show off your smoldering smile at her and she’ll succumb to you like every other girl,” he says.

“That’s the thing Cody,” I said, now I was pacing back and forth in my office. “I can get any girl I want with just a flash of a smile… But lately, I’ve been finding myself smiling at the same girl,” I suddenly realized how much Katie truly means to me.

Cody shook his head and said “You’re without a doubt completely whipped by Katie,” he says it like I was going to die or something. “Dude! You love her. Just go tell her.” He urged on.

“Like hell I’m in love,” I won’t allow myself to succumb to the pleasures of love. I can’t afford to be weak. Cody scoffed and mumbled to himself “Damn you’re stubborn,” like I couldn’t hear him.

“Then can you just sit here acting all mighty—”

“I am all mighty!” I told him.

He held both of his hands up in surrender and gently said “What I’m saying bro is can you handle sitting here and watching other men woo Katie, touch Katie, and be with Katie. All because you don’t have the balls to admit you’re in love,” he had a point.

Just by imagining any of those scenarios sent me into a blinding rage of anger. And just as if the great beings shined a light on the situation, I’ll admit it.

I’m falling for Katie Simmons.

She’s my kryptonite. My weakness.

“—Kissing Katie, taking her to bed.” Cody kept going but I shut him up by slamming my fists on the desk and storming all the way to the marketing department.

How can a small innocent girl make me fall so hard in just a few days of knowing her?

The marketing department was once again shocked to see me but once they laid eyes on me their gaze shifted to a particular brunette I wanted to see. I then storm up towards her and once she noticed all eyes were on her she spun around to face me.

She looked absolutely stunning with the chopsticks in her hair, black rimmed glasses, and cute blue formal dress. She looked at me again with her Bambi like eyes, and right there I knew I wouldn’t get tired of looking into those eyes.

“Hunter?” she whispered. Surprised that I’m standing in front of her. She better get used to it because I’m not going anywhere.

“You’re coming with me,” I demanded. I couldn’t find the words and I refuse to blurt out three words that every woman wants to hear, but Katie isn’t every woman. “Why?” she asked as she put down the folders she was holding.

But I didn’t answer her as I dragged her out of there once again. I didn’t care if I would be the talk of the whole company. It’ll make things easier for the men to know that Katie is mine.

I brought Katie to my penthouse and for some odd reason I demanded her to cook. And I sat at the counter and admired how she gracefully moved around the kitchen and cooked me food. She truly was an angel sent from heaven. Too bad I won’t share her with the world, the only time I’ll show her to the world is if she bares my last name.

While she cooked she turned around and timidly asked “Hunter, why did you bring me here?” my eyes narrowed at her like she was my prey. And if she allowed me then she’ll be my only prey for life.

“Because I want you,”
