Logan heard her shuddered breath, saw her force a san said, waiting for her to acknowledge hi and hard about what you want If you want to pursue this BDSM stuff, I’ame If you’d prefer to find a third for the future, I’m open to that too I just need to knohich you wantto have toboth And definitely not with Xander”

Logan knew his wife, knew she was going to do so And he’d wait Patiently Because, when Sam finally decided what it was she wanted, he knew she’d do what she felt would make them both happy That’s just the way she worked And that’s one of the main reasons he continued to fall in love with her a littleup the phone and looked up from his desk He had heard his front door open for the second tio, and there were only a handful of people who had a key to his house The housekeeper, the cook, his assistant Leah, Shane, and yes, Mercedes

Needless to say, he’d been only half paying attention to Hirsh’s incessant ra on the other end of the phone because he’d beenthat Mercedes had come back

His heart had pounded frantically in his chest when he heard her leave If he hadn’t already been on the phone, he would’ve gone after her, but he wanted to get Hirsh off his back once and for all Not that that’s what happened

A quick glance at the clock on his coht at noon It had to be Mercedes

Fighting the urge to go in search of her, Xander remained where he was The whole point was to make her come to him If she didn’t, then that was his answer It wasn’t the one he wanted, and he wasn’t certain he would stop pursuing her, but at least it would give hi his eh the ite, and he knew his calendar was clear for the rest of the day, but he had to do so to search for her

If he had to guess, Mercedes was pacing the floor in his living rooo back ho up from his computer screen, Xander watched as Mercedes stepped into his office

For a ht out of his chest

Leaning back in his chair, he studied her She didn’t lookthe way she’d lost the blazer, which he considered a good thing

Her silky, onyx hair was flowing loosely down her back and over her shoulder, her crisp white shirt had two buttons opened, revealing just a hint of her gorgeous cleavage, and her black skirt was back to its original forruffly thrust his hands beneath it

She looked pri sexy it made his teeth hurt

“I’m here,” she told him

“I see that” He made a point not to look pleased, but he definitely was So ainst his slacks, begging for attention On the flip side though, Xander was leaving what happened next up to her, so his dick was likely going to have to be patient

He’d asked her to co his proposal If she weren’t, Mercedes would’ve e on conflict, and she tended to avoid it whenever possible So it was good news that she was standing there Except he knew Mercedes, whichwith her acquiescence Now he just had to wait to see what those were

She moved closer, her arms loose at her sides Not only was she still mostly buttoned up like the business professional he knew her to be, she had also put on even taller heels He happened to prefer the ones she’d had on earlier, but these were nice too They’d conized that iuess, the shoes were a power play Being that she was roughly a foot shorter before the five inches added to her height, she probably felt less intimidated by his size now Without her shoes on, he could easily rest his chin on the top of her head With her shoes, her forehead would be level with his chin, but the woman would come eye to eye with most men she encountered

“So, how does this work?” she asked, looking around at anything but hiht along with her

Mercedes aze head on, and he saw the frustration in her eyes She was doing this, but she wasn’t exactly happy with her own decision
