Book Excerpt
“Found what you’re
looking for?”
Mary looked up with a
start. Stefan stood there; cross-legged,
casually leaning against the wall.
“So the real estate
industry and the pharmaceutical
industry. Is there anyone you like?” she asked bitterly.
He slowly walked toward
her, his eyes locked on hers.
“I like you,” he said
as he came around and took the paper from her hand.
“If this is what you do
to people you like, I feel sorry for those you don’t.” The office space
suddenly seemed smaller to her. Nobody knew she was there. She didn’t think
Stefan would hurt her, but she had been snooping around. He had every
right to be angry. She wondered what he planned to do.
“I’m impressed. You
don’t seem like the breaking and entering
type.” Mary was not short, but Stefan
towered over her. Her pulse started to race. She took a step back but stumbled
on the chair. Stefan grabbed her by the waist to prevent her from losing her
balance.
“You seem kind of
distracted Mary,” Stefan said.
Mary could feel his
eyes caressing her face and flushed. She realized his arms were still around her and
freed herself from his grasp.
“Keep your hands off
me, Mr. Larsson,” she said.
“You know, all this sir and Mr. Larsson…it’s really not
doing it for me.” Stefan flashed his gorgeous smile.
“Maybe because I have
no desire to do it for you Mr.
Larsson.” Mary glared at him and walked out of his office.
