Party music playing.
“You dancing?” I offered Ruby to dance, as I thought, she waved her hand to refuse with a timid smile. But as a persistent woman, I pleaded with gentle eyes and immediately pulled her onto the dance floor.
Ruby was very hesitant to dance, but I could see she was trying to fit in. He moved a little bit of his body while following the rhythm. All I want right now is to make her comfortable. I could feel Ruby very agitated doing something like this. I danced modestly, clapped my hands, wiggled my hips a little, and raised my hands from time to time. My eyes were watching around, I didn't want lucas to see me teasing Ruby, that would be a problem.
I move and dance closer to Ruby. Ruby didn't move, she even made eye contact with me as I continued to step forward, grinding my hips onto her hips. I held her hand and placed it on my hip, my legs alternating with her as we began to dance together. I could feel him starting to feel comfortable.
I turned around with my back on him, he didn't refuse. I swung my hips forward and back deliberately to tease her. A smile slowly formed on my lips as his hands grew tighter and tighter on my waist. His face is now buried in my neck.
This is it, this is it I've been waiting for
I turned around to face her back and our lips were only a few centi apart. Our eyes met and his eyes were misty. Ruby was taller than me so I needed to look up just to catch a glimpse of her handsome face. I moved slowly to kiss her, but she stepped back and pulled me back to the bar table.
“I'm not too comfortable to dance.” He smiled nervously. I knew he was deliberately away, but pretended not to understand what I wanted. He felt it, I knew it. I know he feels se*sual tension. I can't deny that I'm so upset and disappointed. No one has ever rejected me like this. I felt angry and ashamed at the same time. How could he possibly reject me?
“Are you with someone?” He asked, turning his chair around and trying to avoid my pressing thighs. I stood up and pulled my chair closer. Ignoring her intentions that wanted to avoid me. “I was with a friend. She's the host's girlfriend.” I pointed at Lucas who was busy chatting with Rania. Ruby turned to Lucas and nodded.
“Oh him .., I thought he was your girlfriend because last I saw you guys act like a couple.”
I grinned looking into his eyes. “I wouldn't be here in front of you, if I was with my girlfriend. I don't have a girlfriend in case you're curious.”
Mr. Ruby nodded and sipped a drink in his glass. I never took my eyes off her. He's getting good-looking when he's nervous, and I'm addicted. The shape of her face, her small smile, the smell of alcohol in her breath and her musky perfume.
“I'm married.”
Those three words felt like broken glass scratching my head. My heart felt squeezed, then removed from my chest. It hurts to hear it. “I know,” I said smile at him. “Why did you say that to me?”
His eyes stared into my eyes for a while before staring at his drinking glass. “It's okay, I just want to create a boundary between professional relationships and our personal lives, I mean ...”
I chuckled cutting her words and she looked confused. “I know I am your assistant, it's okay I like challenges, just that.” He looked at me worriedly.
I'll break the wall he built, or I'll jump it. You can't refuse me Ruby. Surrender is not in my dictionary, and the fight has just begun. I'll make sure you'll be the one to pull me in first for a kiss, you'll fall. And I'm gonna win.
I like wolves. Wolves that live only in the wild. They cannot be tamed. They are fierce, aggressive, strong and free. I love being a wolf. Ever since I lived independently, I've always had everything my way.
When things don't go the way I want, I can't sleep that weekend. I can't believe a middle-aged man would reject a woman like me? Am I too confident?. From the beginning, I've considered Ruby a challenge. But not as hard as he tried to pretend to be.
I try to be humble, and gentle. Perhaps, his wife was a soft-spoken refined human being. The opposite of me. I tried to be balanced, but it didn't work. So I guess from now on I need to show myself the truth.
“Good morning Mr. Ruby.” I greeted him in the most formal way my voice could be spoken. I put a cup of coffee on the table and a sandwich I bought from his favorite coffee shop. Not from my favorite shop and not my homemade meal like I used to make.
I noticed how his expression changed. It's been a long time since I've served coffee from my favorite coffee shop and healthy food made by me for her. Today was different because I wanted him to feel my disappointment about what happened last weekend.
He took off his glasses and put down his pen. “My favorite coffee is not that one anymore. I thought you knew." I looked at him and nodded politely. “That coffee and sandwiches are written in the notes given by bu.salma. But I'll take note of your new favorite. Excuse me.”
I turned around and I hoped he would call me back, and it happened. “Jenny, please sit back." I smiled in my head when I stopped. Looking back expressionlessly at my face as I sat on one of the chairs in front of his desk.
“What's wrong?” I can't believe he's gonna ask me that. I expect an apology from him. “Wrong? I'm sorry, sir, but I don't understand. Nothing wrong, or did I make a mistake?” I tried as easily as possible to answer his question.
Ruby cleared her throat, loosened her tie. “Jenny, I know you know what I mean. You are a smart woman I admire. You are young, you have a lot ahead of you. Some things should not develop. I hope you understand.”
I grinned at the words he just said. I almost wanted to vomit and choke on my vomit. He embarrassed me a second time. “Master Ruby thank you for seeing me as someone smart. I didn't think of anything at all. I slept well last weekend and I hope you too. And also just an addition, I hope you are not too confident with the future, who knows.?”
I looked at her fixedly, but Ruby's smile confused me. He massaged his temple and leaned back in his chair. Do my words sound funny? “You are completely different.” He looked me straight in the eye.
”By the way, I will email you the full details of my trip, but I will also say this directly to you. I have a meeting in Las Vegas in 2 days. This is urgent and very important, so please cancel all my appointment this week for up to 5 days and reschedule if possible. You need to book a private jet, the entire hotel is one floor or if a penthouse is available then it will be nice. I want your room to be across from mine so that whenever I need you, I can easily contact you. And lastly please check Salma's notes on what you need to bring with you whenever I'm overseas. Do you understand?”
"Yes Mr. Ruby, I understand very clearly.” I underlined the word one floor and the room across, it sounded sexy. I think this is a good opportunity for me. I begged myself after recording everything in my notebook.
*Sir Ruby who resisted Jenny's temptation, until when was she able to resist it???
