SEAL of Approval by Lynn Faye, Sarah J. Brooks (44)


Matthew

It was a mistake. Touching Kayla, giving in to my desire for her, it was a mistake that I needed to make sure didn’t happen again. Her body was like a drug to me though and just having her near me send me into some sort of frantic need to feel her.

Kayla was going to work in my office now. I couldn’t go around fucking her; that would end up blowing up in my face for sure. I had to stay away from her. Just having her body next to mine made it impossible for me to think straight. I had to be able to think straight if I was ever going to make it to where I wanted to be in Washington.

Her freckled nose and reddish brown hair, they drove me insane. It wasn’t like I was going to be able to resist her forever though, even I knew that. Sooner or later I was going to give into my need for her, but it had to be on my own terms. She wasn’t going to like it and I wasn’t going to have to deal with her falling in love with me.

My biggest mistake with Kayla was that I actually had feelings for her. Most women I could avoid that nasty little complication. But since I met Kayla in such an unusual way, I wasn’t prepared for the surprise of emotion that she brought out in me.

In Chicago, I had been myself. The normal me was just Matthew, a businessman from Chicago who liked to fuck hot women and have a good time. Unfortunately for Kayla, that wasn’t who I was in Washington D.C. As Senator Storm, I was a law abiding conformist who worked my magic through the direct contact of the legislative government of America.

As I made my way to work, I was committed to not have contact with Kayla and just let her do her job. Whatever Alex or the others wanted Kayla to do she could do it without worrying about me. If I could successfully avoid her throughout the daytime, then I would be able to make it through the evenings without her as well.

“Hello Mr. Storm,” Alex said as I entered my office at seven o’clock on the dot.

“What’s on the agenda for today?”

“You have a meeting with Senator Edwards again today and then the application for the Senate Arms Committee is due.”

“Yes, I remember. Thank you Alex. Is there anything else?”

“You need to set up a meeting with Senator Masson before you’ll have a chance to get on the Arms Committee. It might be nice if you started to work on that. Also, you’ll need to finish that presentation for the other two committees that will be meeting at the end of the week.”

“Shit Alex, you made it seem like there wasn’t much going on today.”

“Sorry, sir. You always have things to do, even when there is nothing to do.”

Alex was right about that. It was one of the reasons I had decided to hire him right out of graduate school. During his interview, I asked him what he would do if I gave him the day off. His response was different than all the other people who interviewed. Alex told me there was never a day off in politics. It resonated well with me and I was eager to have him on my team.

“Can you keep that new assistant girl Kayla away from me today?” I asked Alex.

He looked at me oddly at first, but then he knew exactly why I couldn’t have her near me. Alex was one of my closest friends in D.C. and he knew my reputation for the women. Part of his unofficial job was to make sure I kept my dick in my pants around the women I couldn’t have in Washington D.C. Unfortunately, that had turned out to be pretty much all of the women. 

“I can do that. But she just got here yesterday. Have you really already found her that distracting?”

“Yes, Alex. I have. Keep her away from me today please.”

Alex left me to do my work for awhile, but I could hear Kayla as she came into the office. She was the only one who actually sounded happy to be at work. Her voice alone got my body excited and I wanted to pull her into my office and throw her over the side of my couch and fuck her.

It wasn’t reasonable that I wanted her so bad. There were plenty of other women that I could fuck and then forget. But Kayla was deep in my thoughts now and I couldn’t get her out of them.

Her happy attitude would wear off soon, I was sure of that. All the new hires felt like they were going to be able to change the world. But then they were stuck in my office making copies instead of doing all this world changing that they wanted to do. It was a difficult lesson to learn, but one that they all needed to learn.

I moved over to the bookshelf by my door so I could hear what was going on. As much as I knew I had to avoid Kayla, everything in my body was drawn toward her. I knew what I had to do, I was going to make her hate me. I could be mean and overbearing in the office, everyone knew I could. So I just had to make a special effort so Kayla understood I liked to be left alone as much as possible.

I threw open my office doors and stormed out into the main room as angry as I could possibly muster.

“You all are out here having a great time while work needs to get done. Quiet down and get some shit done,” I said with a stern face.

When I went back into my office, I couldn’t help but smile at the idea that I had just pretended to be an angry jerk. Everyone in the office knew that I wasn’t like that, but Kayla didn’t know it.

I was typically very stressed out and I would yell at people in the office a lot of the time, but I wasn’t a jerk about it. My yelling typically consisted of telling the people in the office to do jobs that they already knew they needed to do.

Kayla didn’t know me at all. It was the perfect opportunity for me to be the man she wanted me to be. I could get to know her without all that stigma that was usually around me. I couldn’t stop thinking about her.

Fuck, I couldn’t resist her.

“Kayla, can you come in here for a second?” I said as I opened my door again.

It was a mistake, I knew it right when I called for her. I also saw it in Alex’s face as he looked at me and shook his head no.

“Actually, Matthew, I was just about to give Kayla some work to do. Maybe you could talk to her later?” Alex said.

His effort was a valiant one, but in the end my desire for her far outweighed his ability to keep me away from her. Later, I’d scream at him for doing such a poor job of keeping her away from me. But for the time being I was going to play with her a little.

I couldn’t want to taste her, to touch her, to feel her body as she moaned with excitement.
