Making my own post because now capitalism is just revolving in my brain and I want to respond, but I've intruded more than enough. ^^"
I do think capitalism can be solved, and history actually gives me hope because it shows the fundamental need of society. Humans aren't inherently greedy or cruel. The greed and the cruelty are symptoms of a long-standing human need to make things better than they were before: to live comfortably, and without fear.
Capitalism is merely the current expression of this need that we live in.
Solving the need is absolutely possible by establishing a baseline standard of living and resource allotment. And that's comparable to an amount of 'work' that we deem acceptable in our daily lives. Because if you think about it, making coffee every morning with a Keurig gets you a similar product to making coffee every morning with a hand grinder and cold press: one just takes more resources and time than the other.
However, this needs to be flexible because humans are individuals with different needs, and the premise is also questionable because who's setting this baseline anyway?
I personally think it has more to do with government setting a cap on resource imports. (I think it should be stronger than tariffs, personally. Just a hard cap for the year.)
You can't really control demand. That's what most socialists do, and it always fails because humans fundamentally want to make their lives easier. But you can control resource management. If the government says we can only import 20 tons of cotton this year, and we produce 80 tons of cotton, so companies get 100 tons of cotton to do whatever with, and that's it. If we want more cotton, we have to axe some other import.
It 1) makes management visual. 2) gives citizens a personal reason to be invested in their government. 3) will not allocate resources fairly, but will show the true value of a product for the region it's in and prioritize local resources [i.e. if your country does not produce garnets, garnets will be more expensive than gold]. 4) increases jobs since there's far less incentive to outsource work, overall decreasing inequality. 5) encourages a circular economy.
In which case, I suppose I'm for some form of socialist autarky and I think that would solve a decent number of capitalist problems. Companies could no longer overrun workers and there's individual choice behind jobs, work, and some form of style of living.
It IS bad in like- fifty million other ways though. You can't just go from a country used to living in a capitalist society to imposing tariffs and screaming about autarky. Natural resources WILL be destroyed on your own soil and the biggest nation will have the highest quality of living. Imports have to be on a factor of population growth and this might only be possible with nations for a declining population rate. If at all. You also have to add a judicial angle for the people who will inevitably try to take over that system. And, most of all, you have to commit to not going to fucking war over state expansion for resources. Looking at you, Russia.
So I suppose we COULD solve capitalism, at the expense of a whole lot of other problems that are equally meh-to-bad.
Governments are fundamentally resource management machines though, and it's really stupid to pretend they aren't. With resource management, comes capping the fuck out of companies (specialists) that abuse the system (monopolies/oligarchies). When a government doesn't do that (whatever the method), it's failed its purpose as a government and also needs to be put down (revolution).
#Walking through this in my head and it's actually a bit bleaker than I thought. That is fundamentally the solution though. If you#had an autarky (with copious imports) you /can/ balance that budget but EVERYONE on the fucking planet has to be committed.#Otherwise you're just back to the Bronze Age. Rinse and repeat.#But I think there is hope because technology DOES upset that cycle. Tech DOES mean we can recycle resources more efficiently#than ever before and use nuclear/solar/wind power that doesn't necessitate human intervention. If we prioritize energy into regrowth#rather than production I think we could see substantial change into a circular economy that would shift the cycle of resource boom and bust#My dream is to run a hydrometallurgical plant on a fault line for the production of base and precious metals.#Low yield but not energy intensive and no damage to the environment.#ptxt#jesus christ alright I've thought enough about resources. xD Time to go write the Liztlie AU.#... I'm just kind of dwelling on all the problems with autarky now.

"A German bio-tech company has developed a naturally-occurring enzyme discovered in a cemetery into a near-market ready solution for recycling plastic without any loss of quality.
In 2022, GNN reported on a paper published by Leipzig-based scientists who first identified the enzyme. At the time, the enzyme was subject to a small side-by-side test, and caused the polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic to decompose by a whopping 90%.

Pictured: Before and After: A container of PET after 24 hours of contact with the enzyme leaves only dye
Fast forward to the spring of 2025 and those same scientists have perfected the capabilities of that enzyme, called PHL7, and have founded ESTER Biotech to bring those capabilities to market.
Their initial plan to be finished next year is a bathtub-sized pilot project reactor. If successful, their 2030 plan will be four 350 cubic-meter reactors capable of processing 45,000 metric tons of PET plastic every year.
PHL7 and ESTER Biotech boast several advantages over chemical and thermal recycling methods. For starters, once the polymers of PET are broken by the enzyme into monomers, or single component parts, they have suffered no degradation of their material characteristics unlike some recycled plastic which is weaker or less stable.
Additionally, PHL7 is exceptionally stable from 32 to 203 degrees Fahrenheit (0-95°C), and per kilogram of plastic, a dose of only 0.02% to 0.06% of the enzyme is required—substantially less than existing alternatives. Their new version of the enzyme also recycles the plastic several hours faster.
“Our technology makes it possible to bring material flows that are currently burned back to the beginning of the cycle at the molecular level,” says Christian Sonnendecker, lead author on the paper of the enzyme’s discovery, and co-founder of ESTER Biotech at the University of Leipzig. “And with high energy efficiency and scalability.”
“We are only at the beginning. But we are convinced that when science, entrepreneurial spirit and social responsibility come together, a cemetery enzyme can become a beacon of hope for a better future.”
RECYCLING BREAKTHROUGHS:
Scientists in Japan Develop Non-Toxic Plastic That Dissolves in Seawater Within Hours
Cornell Researchers Create First-of-its-Kind Durable and Recyclable Plastic
New Process ‘Vaporizes’ Plastic Bags and Bottles to Help Make Recycled Materials
Revolutionary New ‘Living Plastic’ That Could Slash Damage to the Environment Developed by California Researchers
ESTER Biotech’s enzyme is able to separate certain multilayer composites which are normally thought of as unrecyclable. In addition to the infrastructure of the pilot project, ESTER is currently working with two medium-sized partners to build a cost-efficient supply chain with an aim to reduce the enzyme price to between 100 and 200 euros per kilogram.
Though no currently-commercialized recycling method can compete with the cost of virgin plastic, a price between 100 and 200 euros will put it in line with existing competitors.
Fortunately for anyone in the space, the EU is not afraid to use heavy-handed regulation to guarantee plastic recycling rates. By 2040, under existing EU legislation, 65% of plastic production will be mandated to come from recycled sources. ESTER believes that with its potential to offer a higher quality “recyclate,” the incentive to pursue and expand enzymatic methods will increase."

At one of the milking robots, several cows are lined up, nose to tail, politely waiting their turn. The cows can get milked by robot whenever they like, which typically means more frequently than the twice a day at a traditional dairy farm. Not only is getting milked more often more comfortable for the cows, cows also produce about 10 percent more milk when the milking schedule is completely up to them.
“There’s a direct correlation between stress and milk production,” Jacobs says. “Which is nice, because robots make cows happier and therefore, they give more milk, which helps us sell more robots.”
that's wild, love the discourse possibilities of fully automated robofarms actually granting farm animals more independence and autonomy and leaving them happier and more productive

Saving Grace || CEO!Rafe Cameron x fem!reader
Summary: When Rafe Cameron’s infamous temper threatens to derail the entire office, his wife is called in as the only person who can bring him back to earth.
Warnings: none!
Word count: 2,051
MASTERLIST
Rafe Cameron could be described in many ways: arrogant, sharp-tongued, perpetually stone-faced, and infamously hot-headed. His temper was a ticking time bomb, always moments away from detonation. It didn’t take much to set him off—a missed detail, an oversight, or even the wrong tone of voice—and once his mood soured, it had a ripple effect on everyone within his orbit.
If Rafe was in a foul mood, the entire office braced itself for the storm, knowing they’d bear the brunt of his frustration. Productivity stalled, morale plummeted, and an oppressive tension hung heavy in the air. No one dared to ask if he was okay or offer to fix the issue—it was simply understood that his temper had to run its course.
But there was one person who had mastered the art of disarming the bomb: his assistant, Rachael. If anyone in the office had something to say about Rachael, it was that she knew Rafe Cameron far too well. She had an uncanny ability to read his moods and an arsenal of strategies for defusing them. Most importantly, she understood the one surefire way to calm Rafe down: his wife.
The woman who he worshipped the ground she walked on, mother to his children, and the only person Rafe Cameron seemed to hold above all else. No matter how irritable or unapproachable he became, the mere mention of her name was enough to shift the atmosphere. So when Rachael watched one of her coworkers stumble out of Rafe’s office, barely holding back tears, she knew it was time to intervene.
Her sharp eyes scanned the room, noting the nervous glances exchanged between staff members who were all too aware of the storm brewing behind Rafe’s closed door. Without missing a beat, Rachael grabbed her phone, dialling a number she had memorised long ago. As the call connected, her tone softened—a stark contrast to the sharp efficiency she displayed in the office.
“Hi, Mrs. Cameron,” she began, her voice carrying a mixture of urgency and familiarity. “I hate to bother you, but it’s one of those days. If you’re free, I think a quick word with Rafe might do the trick.�� She paused, listening intently before smiling to herself. Rachael didn’t need to explain much; Mrs. Cameron always seemed to know exactly how to handle her husband.
And while the office might dread Rafe’s infamous outbursts, Rachael found comfort in knowing there was someone who could bring the man back down to earth. She let out a small sigh of relief when she heard your calm, reassuring voice on the other end of the line. “I’ll be right there,” you said, your tone steady but with a hint of warmth that was reserved for conversations about your husband.
Without hesitation, you grabbed your car keys, slipping on a pair of heels as you prepared to leave. It wasn’t the first time you’d been called in to play peacemaker, and it likely wouldn’t be the last. Rafe’s temper was legendary, but you knew how to navigate it better than anyone else. You’d seen him at his worst, the raw edges of his frustration and anger, but you also knew the softer side of him—the part that melted when you walked into a room, the man who looked at you like you hung the stars in the sky.
As you slid into the driver’s seat, your thoughts briefly flickered to your children, safely at home with the nanny. You didn’t want to leave them, but you also understood that Rafe needed you. He might not admit it outright, especially not in front of his staff, but the subtle ways he sought you out after a rough day spoke volumes.
~
As you walked toward your husband’s office, the energy in the space shifted noticeably. Heads turned, relief washing over faces that had been tense just moments before. Hushed whispers followed in your wake, employees murmuring their gratitude for the one person who could tame the storm that was Rafe Cameron. Even without uttering a word, your presence commanded respect—graceful yet undeniably authoritative.
“You have no idea how happy I am to see you, Mrs. Cameron,” Rachael said as she stood from her desk, her tone filled with a mixture of hope and exhaustion. “He’s in his office, and he’s miserable in there.” You glanced through the glass wall into Rafe’s office. Rachael hadn’t exaggerated—his frustration was palpable. The furrow of his brow, the tight set of his jaw, and the restless movements of his hands screamed of a man on the verge of losing his patience entirely.
You offered Rachael a small, reassuring smile before making your way to the door, your heels clicking softly against the polished floor. You didn’t bother knocking—Rafe hated formalities when it came to you. The heavy sigh he let out at the sound of the door opening was immediate. His eyes remained locked on the papers scattered across his desk, his tone sharp and cold.
“I thought I said I didn’t want to be disturbed.” A small smile tugged at the corners of your lips as you stepped inside. “Does that include me?” you asked, your voice sweet and smooth, cutting through the tension. Rafe’s head snapped up at the sound of your voice, his piercing blue eyes meeting yours. Instantly, his rigid posture softened, and the weight on his shoulders seemed to lift.
The frustration etched into his features melted away, replaced by a look that could only be described as unguarded affection. Just your presence had the power to undo him. Without a word, Rafe reached behind his desk and flicked a switch, causing the glass walls of his office to turn frosted, granting the two of you privacy. His voice softened, tinged with genuine curiosity and concern.
“What are you doing here, baby?" You walked around his desk, your movements fluid and deliberate, and Rafe turned in his chair to face you fully. Standing in front of him, you saw the shift in his expression—the hard edges of his day crumbling as he looked up at you. And there it was, the look that never failed to steal your breath.
No matter how difficult or frustrating his day had been, Rafe always looked at you like you were his entire world, as though you hung the moon and stars just for him. In his eyes, there was nothing but pure, unfiltered love—a stark contrast to the icy exterior he showed everyone else. You leaned down, your fingers brushing lightly against his jaw as you pressed a gentle kiss to his lips.
His shoulders visibly relaxed at the familiar touch, the tension from his day dissolving. “You’re scaring your employees,” you teased softly, your words accompanied by a light chuckle as you straightened up. Rafe let out a dramatic sigh, leaning back in his chair and rolling his eyes. “They’re ridiculous,” he muttered, his tone laced with both irritation and amusement.
“They’re terrified,” you corrected, folding your arms and raising a brow at him. “I saw one of them practically in tears.” Rafe groaned, rubbing a hand over his face. “It’s not my fault they can’t handle a little pressure.” You gave him a knowing look, stepping closer and resting your hands on the armrests of his chair, effectively boxing him in. “Rafe, you can be a little… intense,” you said gently, your eyes locking with his. “And by ‘a little,’ I mean a lot.”
His lips quirked into a smirk, his hands instinctively finding your waist. “You don’t seem scared of me,” he said, his voice dropping into a softer, almost teasing tone. “That’s because I know the real you,” you replied, brushing a strand of hair out of his face. “The one who spoils me, reads bedtime stories to the kids, and eats all the burnt pancakes I make without complaining.”
He let out a low chuckle, the sound rumbling from his chest. “You know I love those burnt pancakes,” he murmured, tugging you closer until you were practically sitting on his lap. “Hmm,” you hummed playfully, trailing your fingers along the lapel of his blazer. “Maybe I should remind your staff that under all that brooding, you’re just a big softie.”
“Don’t you dare,” he warned, though his smirk betrayed the emptiness of his threat. You laughed softly, pressing another kiss to his lips before pulling back just enough to meet his gaze. “Then maybe try to be a little nicer? For me?” He sighed, feigning reluctance, but the way his hands tightened on your waist betrayed his surrender. “Fine,” he said, his tone mockingly begrudging. “But only because you asked so nicely.”
“That’s all I needed to hear,” you said with a satisfied smile, brushing your thumb against his cheek. “Now, why don’t you take a break? Let me help you relax before you scare anyone else.” Rafe’s smirk softened into a genuine smile, the love in his eyes shining brighter than ever. “You really are my saving grace,” he murmured, his voice low and sincere.

Tim Works Hard So He Can Nap Harder
The thing about Tim is that he gets things done.
Not in a normal, reasonable, “wow, he’s really productive” way. No, Tim operates on an entirely different plane of efficiency—one that defies common sense and possibly the laws of physics.
Give him a five-hour task? He’ll finish it in two. Tell him something is impossible? He’ll stare at you, offended, before proving you so wrong it physically hurts.
Sometimes, it’s out of sheer spite. Bruce once told him a mission was too complicated for him to handle alone, so Tim completed it in record time out of pettiness alone. Jason told Tim he didn’t have the skill set for corporate espionage. So Tim hacked three shell companies overnight, uncovered Black Mask’s entire financial network, and sent Jason a PowerPoint presentation with the subject line: “Skill Set Acquired”.
Other times, it’s about time management. Tim understands, at his very core, that the faster he works, the sooner he can stop working. If he has to burn through a mountain of reports in a single hour so he can take a nap, then so be it. If he has to analyze data at inhuman speeds so he can binge-watch a show later, then he will.
The bats have learned to just… let it happen.
Dick once made the mistake of asking Tim to help him streamline his schedule. Tim, in under an hour, not only optimized his entire calendar but also accounted for every possible emergency, scheduled backup time slots for rescheduling, and somehow made Dick twice as productive without making him feel busier. It was kinda terrifying.
Barbara asked him to double-check some intel. He cross-referenced it against every available database, found three hidden links no one had noticed, and sent her a color-coded report with visual aids.
Bruce told him to track a smuggling ring in Gotham. Tim mapped out their entire operation in one night, had arrests lined up by morning, and then went home to sleep like a corpse.
Steph once sarcastically asked if Tim could figure out how to clean up the Gotham underworld in a week. Tim pulled out a ten-step plan before she even finished her sentence.
Tim doesn’t waste time. He doesn’t believe in half-measures. He works fast, works well, and then disappears before anyone can ask him for more.
The only thing scarier than Tim’s efficiency is the fact that he actively chooses to use it selectively.
Because while Tim is capable of working like a one-man army, when it benefits him, he’s also capable of weaponized uselessness. If he doesn’t want to do something, suddenly he’s the most inefficient person alive.
He’ll take weeks to answer a text. He’ll forget how to do basic tasks. He’ll act so completely incapable of anything that people just stop asking him for things.
But when he wants something done?
It’s over before you even realize he started.

pairing; ceo!jake seresin x fem assistant!reader
summary; Jake Seresin was power wrapped in expensive suits and sharper edges, and you were the calm in his perfectly calculated storm. But one unexpected week away was all it took to turn the game into something dangerously real.

a/n; this was so fun to write. i'm actually loving writing smut HAHAAH i have soooo many smut fics planned it's crazy, can't wait for you to read them!!! also the smut in this is SO good, let me know what you think!
masterlist



The elevator doors slid open with a polished chime, and the day officially began with the low hum of fear and productivity that seemed to follow Jake Seresin wherever he went.
Outside, Manhattan was barely awake — sunlight bouncing off steel and glass, yellow cabs honking like it was a contact sport, steam rising from subway grates like the city itself was sighing. But up here, on the 49th floor of the Seresin International Building, the air was already thick with nerves.
You stepped into the marble-floored hallway with two coffees in hand and your phone pressed to your ear, rattling off a list of calendar edits to Jake’s London liaison without missing a beat.
“No, push the Barclays call to Wednesday. He’ll never make the 10:00 if that acquisition meeting runs long. And tell them not to call his personal line again — he blocked the last intern who did.”
Your voice was calm. Unbothered. Efficient. Unlike the junior staff who all glanced up with wide eyes the second they saw you approaching — not because they were scared of you, but because they knew he was close behind.
Jake Seresin: thirty-something billionaire, CEO of one of the most influential private investment firms in the country, and, as Forbes once lovingly put it, “a nightmare in Tom Ford.”
He was brutal in boardrooms. Sharp-tongued, sharp-jawed, a little too good-looking for everyone's comfort. Most people around here called him Mr. Seresin. You just called him Jake — mostly with a sigh, sometimes with a threat, and often through gritted teeth.
You passed by your own desk — a minimalist sanctuary of Post-its, color-coded files, and exactly three pens you would murder someone over if they were taken. You didn’t stop. You never did. Your stilettos echoed on the floor as you beelined straight for his office.
You didn’t knock.
“Someone’s already behind,” you said brightly, breezing in and placing the coffees on the polished walnut desk like it was your damn job — which it was, but only barely. “This was supposed to be our twenty minutes of silence. Instead, you scheduled yourself a breakfast call with someone who thinks you’re charming. You see the problem here, don’t you?”
Jake looked up from the sleek screen of his tablet, eyes narrowing like you were the most exhausting thing in the world.
He was wearing a black button-down — sleeves rolled to the elbows, top button undone — and a watch that probably cost more than your apartment.
“How generous of you to bring me coffee and insults before 8 a.m.,” he said, voice low, smooth, and laced with sarcasm.
You dropped into the chair across from him. “This one’s decaf. I figured you’d appreciate a gentle decline into madness today.”
Jake didn’t look amused. Which, to be fair, he rarely did — unless he was toying with someone. Like now, with that infuriating tilt of his mouth as he leaned back in his chair.
“You really should be nicer to your boss,” he said, sipping the coffee anyway.
“I would, if my boss wasn’t a corporate gremlin in Prada.”
Jake raised an eyebrow. “I wear Tom Ford.”
You sipped your own drink, unimpressed. “Exactly.”
Their routine was practically scripted now — one whole of constant sparring, matching each other beat for beat. Everyone in the building knew better than to interrupt when the two of you got going. There had been rumors for a while. Whispers by the elevators. Speculation about whether it was all professional or if there was something more, something physical, simmering under the surface.
You’d deny it, of course. He was your boss. He was impossible. He was infuriating.
...And okay, yes, sometimes he made you want to throw your phone out the window just to get his attention. But still.
“You have ten minutes before your call,” you said, rising again. “Try not to insult anyone’s intelligence until after your second coffee.”
“I make no promises,” Jake said, watching you go like it was his favorite part of the day.
There was a reason no one lasted long as his assistant. Jake Seresin was demanding, short-tempered, impossible to impress. You, however, had never blinked.
You were always five steps ahead. The first one in, the last one out. The type of person who carried three chargers, memorized schedules like a Rolodex, and had the uncanny ability to keep your cool while your billionaire boss told the Wall Street Journal to go to hell — mid-interview.
And unlike everyone else, you didn’t fear Jake.
You handled him.
Which made him insufferably interested.
You hadn’t seen that look in his eyes lately — not since the night of the company gala, six months ago, when you’d worn that black velvet dress and he’d stared at you for so long, you’d excused yourself just to stop the tension from combusting.
Nothing had happened. You didn’t let it. But sometimes — when you passed each other in the hallway, when you handed him his notes in the middle of a meeting — you’d feel it again.
That spark. That ridiculous, inconvenient something.
But this was New York. This was work. You didn’t have time for a crush on your boss, especially not one who wore power like a cologne and treated meetings like cage matches.
So instead, you kept things exactly where they were.
Snarky. Functional. Professional.
By 6:42 p.m., the office had emptied. Jake was still in his office, sleeves still rolled, jaw tight from a day full of idiots.
You dropped a folder on his desk without looking up.
“Your itinerary for the quarter’s investor presentations,” you said. “You’ll find the files for each city tabbed and color-coded. Also, your mother called again.”
Jake groaned. “What did she want this time?”
“Apparently, to know if you’re ‘still incapable of forming an emotional connection.’ Her words, not mine.”
He shot you a look. “You’re enjoying this.”
“Oh, immensely.”
There was a beat of silence as he looked down at the folder, thumb resting on the corner of the cover. “Did you include the San Diego conference dates?”
You blinked. “Conference?”
“Next month. I’ll be presenting on private equity trends. They just confirmed I’m the keynote speaker.”
You rolled your eyes. “Because of course you are.”
Jake didn’t argue. Just smirked.
“We’ll need to book travel,” he added. “Hotels. Make sure they don’t stick me in one of those soulless penthouse suites again.”
You jotted it down. “Anything else, Your Highness?”
His smile widened. “Yeah. Don’t forget to book your ticket, too. You’re coming.”
You froze. “What?”
“You’re my assistant,” he said simply. “I need you there.”
You stared at him. “Fine. But I’m picking the hotel. If I’m stuck on a conference trip with you, I at least want decent lighting and room service that doesn’t come with attitude.”
Jake raised his brows, amused. “Sounds like someone’s already looking forward to it.”
You turned to leave. “Sounds like someone’s getting replaced by a tablet app next fiscal quarter.”
-
If there were sirens for a CEO meltdown, they’d be blaring by 9:13 a.m.
Jake Seresin strode into the office like he’d personally been wronged by God, Wall Street, and the concept of Mondays. He was a vision in black-on-black, suit jacket flaring behind him like a villain in a corporate thriller, hair perfectly in place despite the wind, jaw set like he was going into battle.
Everyone else? They ducked.
Phones were slammed onto receivers. Lattes were hidden like contraband. One poor intern accidentally closed her browser and had to restart her entire system.
You didn’t flinch. You barely looked up from your screen when he stormed past your desk with a barked, “Meeting in fifteen—move it.”
You calmly took a sip of your espresso. “Someone didn’t get their avocado toast this morning.”
Jake didn’t respond. He never did when he was in this kind of mood. That was fine. You’d learned to give him space — and then handle him like a bomb technician once the smoke cleared.
The shouting started ten minutes later. You didn’t get involved.
It was Madison this time — sweet, slightly shaky, probably one of the better interns. You heard her voice crack through the frosted glass wall, her attempt to explain a scheduling mishap met with Jake’s low, clipped tone slicing through her like ice. You didn’t go in. You didn’t even glance up.
Because that wasn’t your job — not right now.
You’d learned long ago that Jake didn’t respect people who tried to save him from himself in public. But when the doors closed and the boardroom was empty — that’s when he listened.
His office door clicked shut. You gave it exactly one minute before walking in.
Jake was seated at his desk, elbows on the edge, hands steepled in front of his mouth. His eyes were locked on the city outside, but you knew he wasn’t seeing any of it.
You walked in without knocking and set the correct file on his desk — Petter-sen, not Peterson — and then sat down across from him without a word.
He finally looked over. “She gave me the wrong file.”
“I noticed,” you said flatly.
Jake scowled, but you didn’t blink.
“You know,” you said calmly, “if you yell at every new hire, HR is going to make you do another empathy seminar.”
“They always get it wrong.”
“And maybe that’s a training issue, not a screaming issue.”
He looked at you like you’d just suggested building a treehouse in Times Square.
“Madison will recover,” you added, flipping open your tablet. “But maybe next time just raise an eyebrow. You have a very intimidating face. Use it.”
Jake leaned back in his chair, watching you. The heat in his expression was still there, but it simmered into something cooler — thoughtful, almost amused.
“You never take my side,” he muttered.
“I’m on your side,” you corrected. “Which is why I don’t let you self-destruct.”
Jake didn’t apologize. He never did. But he muttered something about getting Madison reassigned — not fired — and sent her a gift card for that overpriced pastry place on 3rd without saying who it was from.
You saw the email. You said nothing.
That was the arrangement.
He yelled. You didn’t flinch.
He stormed. You let the storm pass — then walked in with calm hands and sharp eyes and fixed it all.
You didn’t make a scene. You didn’t call him out in front of his team. You were his person, and you’d learned to wield that power precisely: never too loud, never too soft, always effective.
The rest of the day went smoother.
Jake signed documents. You handed him coffee and didn’t bring up the intern again. He glanced up only once — when you told him his 4:30 was pushed to 5:00 — and gave you the barest nod, but you caught it.
Thank you, it said.
You nodded back, and went on with your day.
The office was quiet in that eerie, after-hours way — lights dimmed to save energy, the city glowing like an electric dream outside the glass walls. Most of the building had emptied hours ago. The only sounds now were the hum of the air conditioner and the rhythmic clack of your keyboard.
Jake sat at his desk across the room, sleeves rolled up, tie long gone, and jaw clenched in concentration as he flipped through reports that had been marked URGENT for no good reason. His blazer was draped over the back of his chair, and he looked — unfairly — like the villain in a very expensive noir film. Rumpled. Rich. Slightly dangerous.
You, on the other hand, were perched on the low credenza by the window, balancing your dinner in one hand, your tablet in the other. A white takeout box sat on the floor beside you — a perfectly timed delivery from the hole-in-the-wall Thai place that knew your order by heart.
Jake glanced up without looking at you directly. “If this curry melts a hole in my stomach, I’m suing.”
You didn't even look up. “It’s medium heat. You’ll live.”
He poked at his noodles suspiciously, fork halfway to his mouth. “You said that last time.”
“You’re dramatic.”
“You’re underpaid.”
That made you smirk. You took a sip of your drink, not bothering to argue. “Eat. You’re less of a tyrant when you’re fed.”
Jake’s lips twitched as he stabbed at his food again. “Do your boyfriends know you talk to your boss like this?”
You blinked.
It wasn’t a loaded question — not the way he said it — but it still managed to feel personal. Jake Seresin never asked about your life outside of work. Ever. You were his assistant. A well-oiled machine. You scheduled meetings, filtered emails, anticipated moods, and made sure he didn’t combust in a boardroom.
Small talk? Not your thing. Not his either.
Still, you didn’t let your surprise show.
You let out a laugh instead. “That’s assuming I have time for a boyfriend.”
Jake’s eyes flicked up at that.
You raised a brow. “Do you see how much of my time you take up?”
“Are you suggesting I’m needy?”
“I’m suggesting you’re high-maintenance.”
He snorted into his drink and leaned back in his chair. “So no boyfriend?”
You shook your head, returning your attention to your tablet. “No time, no patience, no desire to babysit someone who doesn’t know how to send a calendar invite. Next question?”
Jake just hummed like he was satisfied with the answer and went back to his food. You didn’t press it. You didn’t ask why he’d suddenly grown curious about your love life. And he didn’t offer anything back.
As always, you both stayed in your lanes.
By the time you were packing up, the city had fully slipped into night. The windows reflected the office like a ghostly double — you brushing crumbs from your skirt, Jake slipping his laptop into his leather case, rolling his shoulders with a quiet sigh.
You reached for your coat. “I’ll call a car.”
“No need,” Jake said, already grabbing his own.
You blinked. “What?”
“I’ll drive you.”
There was no question in his tone. Just a statement. Like the meeting’s moved to Thursday or I signed off on that memo. Neutral. Decisive.
You stared at him. “Since when do you drive me home?”
He held your gaze like it wasn’t even a little strange. “Since now.”
You gave him a look. “Is this because I insulted your spice tolerance?”
“Maybe.”
“You don’t even like Midtown traffic.”
“I like not letting my assistant get murdered by a freelance Uber driver more.”
You rolled your eyes but didn’t argue. You weren’t in the mood to hail a car anyway.
So you followed him down to the parking garage — your heels clicking against the concrete, the tension just a little different than before.
Not romantic. Not dramatic.
But new.
A shift.
And neither of you said a word about it.
The elevator pinged in the garage, echoing through the cold concrete structure like a cue from a spy movie. You followed Jake past the sea of sleek black SUVs and mid-tier sedans… until he stopped in front of an Aston Martin.
You blinked. “Are you serious?”
He didn’t look at you. Just hit the unlock button. The car chirped back, smug as hell.
“This is the most obnoxious thing I’ve ever seen,” you said, arms crossed. “You drive an Aston Martin to the office like you’re late for a martini and an assassination.”
Jake finally turned, smirk firmly in place. “Would it help if I told you I have a license to kill?”
You scoffed. “Only thing you’re qualified to murder is a quarterly report.”
He said nothing else. Just stepped around and opened your door for you like it was the most normal thing in the world. You stared at him for a beat before sinking into the butter-soft leather, equal parts impressed and annoyed.
The car purred to life like a predator. Quiet. Sleek. Very on-brand for the man who hated being questioned and made grown men sweat in boardrooms.
You gave him directions quietly, your voice the only thing cutting through the low hum of city traffic. He nodded once at each turn, no GPS needed — just a surgeon’s precision behind the wheel, the same control he exercised in every room he walked into.
Jake Seresin was not a man who did small talk. Not at work. Not in his car. And certainly not after 10 PM.
So you didn’t bother. You let the silence stretch out between you like a silk ribbon. Strange, how comfortable it felt. How normal.
No posturing. No awkward filler. Just the city glowing around you, painting soft reflections onto his sharp profile.
He looked good behind the wheel. Of course he did. Hands loose on the leather, watch catching the occasional flicker of streetlight. Calm. Focused. Ridiculously attractive, in that completely infuriating way of his.
You crossed your legs and looked out the window.
Eventually, you pulled up in front of your building.
You unbuckled your seatbelt and reached for the door. “Thanks for the ride, Mr. Bond.”
Jake leaned back slightly, one arm draped casually over the steering wheel. “You’re welcome, Miss Moneypenny.”
That earned him a smirk from you. “Goodnight.”
“Night.”
You stepped out, heels clicking against the pavement again as you made your way toward the lobby doors. For a moment, you didn’t look back. You assumed he’d already peeled off into the night like the man on a movie poster he so clearly thought he was.
But something made you glance over your shoulder.
He was still there.
Engine running. Lights low. Waiting.
He didn’t drive off until you pushed the door open and disappeared inside.
You stood behind the glass a second longer than necessary.
And then, with a blink, he was gone.
-
The Aston glided through the city like a knife through silk, each green light bending to his will. The tires barely whispered over the pavement. Inside, the cabin was still, insulated — like him.
He tapped the pad by the garage and drove into the private elevator, where the lift recognized the car and started rising. No buttons. No human contact. Just convenience.
It should have felt like power.
Instead, it felt like procedure.
The elevator doors opened directly into his penthouse. All glass and steel, floor-to-ceiling views of the New York skyline twinkling like a billion-dollar constellation. Marble floors that echoed with every step. Furniture handpicked by a designer he couldn’t remember the name of. The whole place looked like a GQ cover — immaculate, minimalist, and cold.
Too big for one man.
He tossed the keys onto the tray near the entryway, walked past the abstract art on the wall that cost more than some people’s cars, and went straight to the bar. Crystal decanter, aged scotch. He didn’t bother with ice.
The amber liquid caught the light like gold as he poured. He swirled it once, then took a slow sip, letting it burn down his throat.
The silence was deafening.
He stared out the window at the city that never shut up. Sirens, traffic, laughter rising from the streets below — all of it just barely muffled by the triple-pane glass.
He could have stayed at the office. But he'd offered to drive you home. Didn’t even think twice. Just said it like a fact and expected you to get in the car.
And you had.
Jake leaned back against the bar, drink in hand, replaying the last few minutes in his head.
That damn smirk of yours when you called his car “obnoxious.”
The way you slouched in the passenger seat like you didn’t care he was your boss.
The quiet, easy rhythm of your voice as you gave directions.
The laugh when he mentioned a boyfriend.
I don’t have time for boyfriends.
Neither did he. That wasn’t news.
He took another sip and ran a hand through his hair.
You were sharp. Always on. You called him out when no one else dared, but never in public. You were smart enough to survive him and confident enough to annoy him, which somehow earned his respect and drove him insane in equal measure.
Most assistants were scared of him by week two. You weren't.
You were still here.
And now, against all logic, he was thinking about the way you looked in the reflection of the passenger-side window. Your silhouette illuminated by the soft dashboard lights. The way you disappeared into your building with that little half-wave.
Jake exhaled a quiet laugh under his breath.
“You’re losing it, Seresin,” he muttered, setting the glass down with a soft clink.
You were just his assistant.
Brilliant. Efficient. Unbothered by his moods.
And yet —
There you were, in the middle of his penthouse silence, sharper than the scotch on his tongue.
The offices were a study in quiet fear.
On the fortieth floor of a sleek Midtown skyscraper, the air was crisp with money and nerves. Polished concrete floors. Floor-to-ceiling glass. Art that cost as much as the employees' annual salaries. A minimalist color palette that made everyone feel like they had to speak in hushed tones or risk being escorted out.
Jake Seresin’s name wasn’t just on the letterhead — it bled into every corner of the building like gospel. The staff practically snapped to attention when the private elevator chimed. Conversations died. Keyboards stilled. Backs straightened.
You didn’t bother looking up from your computer.
He walked past reception in that deliberate, unhurried way that somehow made everyone more tense — Armani suit sharp enough to cut glass, jaw set, eyes hidden behind a pair of dark sunglasses despite the indoor setting. He barely acknowledged the hushed greetings from various VPs, just a flick of his hand here, a grunt there.
But when he passed your desk?
He paused.
You kept typing, only glancing up when you felt him stop beside you.
“You forwarded the call with Simpson to 11:00?”
You nodded, tapping a final key before turning in your chair to face him. “And moved your investment committee to 2:30. I already prepped the file for you.”
Jake pulled his sunglasses off. His eyes — always sharp, always scanning — softened slightly.
“You leave anything for me to do?”
A dry smile tugged at the edge of your mouth. “Just show up and look like you don’t want to kill someone.”
He exhaled a quiet huff — a laugh by his standards — and kept walking.
From across the room, eyes followed the interaction like hawks.
Behind you, one of the junior analysts whispered to another, “Did… he just smile? At someone?”
You pretended not to hear.
Later, in the boardroom, the air was tense enough to shatter. A mid-level manager was stumbling through a quarterly report, stuttering over projections and missing key numbers. Jake leaned back in his chair, arms crossed, expression unreadable. Everyone could feel it coming — that low, blistering scorn he delivered like a scalpel.
Until—
You cleared your throat. “I think what he meant to say is the forecast accounts for the foreign currency losses, which is why it’s skewed in Q3.”
Jake’s eyes cut to you. You met his gaze, cool as ever, as if daring him to contradict you.
Silence. Then—
“Fine,” Jake muttered. “Keep going.”
The manager looked like he’d just avoided the electric chair. The rest of the room stared at you like you’d just tamed a lion.
Jake, of course, didn’t say thank you — he never did. But the fact that he hadn’t shredded the poor guy into a cautionary tale was proof enough: your voice was the only one he listened to without question.
Later that day, a new hire accidentally spilled a triple-shot espresso over the edge of her desk and into the hallway — mere moments before Jake’s routine midday sweep of the floor.
Chaos erupted.
A blur of paper towels, mumbled apologies, and sheer panic rippled through the space. The poor girl was scrambling on her knees, trying to mop up the mess when Jake turned the corner.
He stopped.
The girl froze like a deer in headlights.
Jake’s brows lifted just slightly. “Are we redecorating?”
She squeaked.
You appeared behind him, holding a dry cleaning bag over one arm.
“She spilled coffee,” you said calmly, like you were talking about the weather. “But don’t worry. It’s not on the rug. And that stain over there was already there — you just never noticed.”
His eyes narrowed slightly, but not at you. At the fear in the intern’s face.
Jake turned to the girl. “Clean it up. And get another one.”
Then he walked away.
You followed after him, casually tossing over your shoulder, “Maybe decaf this time.”
He shook his head, biting back a grin he didn’t want anyone else to see.
In private, in the safety of his glass-walled corner office, Jake watched you through the tinted glass. The way you moved through the chaos like it didn’t touch you. The way people instinctively leaned closer when you spoke. The way you never once bowed your head when he barked orders — and how he never barked at you.
He hated inefficiency. Hated incompetence. Hated noise.
But you?
You were calm. You were sharp. And he trusted you in a way that unnerved him more than he cared to admit.
Jake’s jet was waiting for them at Teterboro, gleaming beneath the late morning sun like it had rolled off the pages of Forbes. A sleek Gulfstream G800 — the kind of aircraft that screamed I could buy your entire existence and not blink.
You adjusted your sunglasses and tilted your head as you took in the sheer absurdity of it.
“Let me guess,” you said, rolling your suitcase behind you. “You named her ‘Ego.’”
Jake barely glanced at you as he handed his bag off to the pilot. “No. That’s the yacht.”
You snorted. “Of course it is.”
He gave you a smirk as he walked up the stairs, impossibly confident in his custom-tailored navy suit. You followed — slowly. More slowly than usual.
Jake noticed.
At the top, he turned to glance back, one brow raised. “Need a hand, sweetheart? Didn’t know heels and staircases were such mortal enemies.”
“It’s not the heels,” you muttered, taking another cautious step up. “It’s the whole... flying death machine thing.”
Jake’s mouth twitched. “You’re afraid of flying?”
You scowled. “I prefer being on the ground where the oxygen lives.”
That earned a low, amused laugh. “You work for a man who travels every other week and you’re scared of planes?”
“I suffer in silence. Like every underpaid woman in a capitalist society.”
He ushered you inside with a dramatic sweep of his arm. “You’re not underpaid.”
You paused just long enough to smirk back. “I am a woman in a capitalist society, though.”
Inside, the jet was a study in excess: leather seats like thrones, dark walnut trim, gold fixtures. A glass decanter of scotch sat ready beside a small fridge stocked with Evian and green juices — your green juices, you noted with a raised brow. Jake really did take notes when he wanted to.
You plopped into a seat across from him and immediately buckled in.
Tightly.
Jake settled across from you, stretching his legs out like he owned the sky. Which, technically, he did.
“Should I be worried?” he asked, his tone dry as he loosened his tie. “You’re looking at the safety card like it’s a will.”
You were, in fact, gripping the laminated sheet like a lifeline.
“I’m fine.”
“You’re pale.”
“I’m fine,” you said again, but it came out through clenched teeth.
Jake watched you for a beat longer, then leaned forward slightly, voice lower. “You trust me?”
That caught you off guard. Your hands faltered for a second on the armrest. You narrowed your eyes.
“You fly with me,” he added. “You work beside me. You’ve seen me fire five people in a single afternoon. You know what I’m capable of. Do you trust me?”
You stared at him, throat suddenly dry.
“…I do.”
Jake smiled, and it was softer than you were expecting.
“Then relax.”
The engines roared to life.
You flinched.
Jake tried not to laugh — and failed, just a little. “You know we haven’t even left the runway, right?”
You flipped him off.
He laughed again — full and rich this time — then unbuckled long enough to reach into a side drawer and toss you a small pillow.
“For your comfort, princess.”
You looked at the pillow. Then at him.
“I swear to God, Seresin—”
But then the wheels lifted.
And you gripped the armrest like it owed you money.
Jake’s smirk lingered as he watched you close your eyes, tense from head to toe. And yet, when you peeked one eye open, his gaze was already on you.
Not taunting this time.
Just watching.
Like he was trying to figure you out.
At cruising altitude, the tension in your shoulders eased slightly — mostly thanks to the glass of champagne Jake poured for you himself, with an arched brow and the sort of slow smirk that made you feel like the main character in a rom-com you hadn’t auditioned for.
“You know,” you muttered, sipping carefully, “this doesn’t feel like the same man who once threatened to fire an entire marketing team because someone used Comic Sans in a pitch deck.”
Jake, reclined in his leather seat with a glass of neat scotch balanced in one hand, didn’t even flinch. “That font is a war crime and you know it.”
You smirked into your drink, legs crossed, your laptop bag at your side like a shield. You were trying — very hard — to maintain normalcy. Which was hard considering your boss had not only poured you champagne, but now looked… interested in talking.
“So,” he said after a moment, eyes still on you, “do you have siblings?”
You blinked. “I’m sorry, what?”
“Siblings. Brothers. Sisters. Weird cousins. You strike me as the oldest child.”
“I am the oldest child,” you said slowly. “How did you—?”
“Control freak energy. You read entire emails, and you reply in full sentences. That’s classic firstborn behavior.”
You narrowed your eyes. “Okay, what BuzzFeed quiz did you pull that from?”
Jake just smiled and sipped his scotch.
Your jaw clenched, brain short-circuiting slightly. “Why are you asking about my family?”
He shrugged. “Just trying to distract you.”
“I have champagne. I’m not distracted. I’m alarmed.”
Jake tilted his head, amused. “Do you ever turn it off?”
“Turn what off?”
“The smart-ass act.”
You gave him a faux-sweet smile. “Do you ever stop acting like Patrick Bateman with a Rolex?”
That made him laugh — really laugh — and you had to admit it was… nice. It lit up his face in a way that made you feel like you were seeing something you weren’t supposed to. Something human.
“I’m serious,” you said after a beat, still watching him warily. “What’s gotten into you? You’re being almost…”
“Charming?” he offered.
“I was going to say ‘suspiciously non-sociopathic,’ but sure, let’s go with that.”
Jake leaned his head back against the seat, one arm slung lazily across the armrest. “Maybe I just like messing with you.”
“That I believe.”
He tilted his head slightly to watch you. “You know, I never figured you for someone who was scared of anything.”
You swallowed, gaze drifting to the window for a moment, then back to him. “Everyone’s afraid of something.”
“And yours is… heights?”
“Crashing.” You corrected. “Falling. Not being in control. Take your pick.”
Jake was quiet for a second, eyes scanning your face. You wondered — uncomfortably — what he was thinking. And then—
A slight shudder through the cabin.
You stiffened instantly, grip tightening on the champagne glass.
Jake didn’t miss it.
“It’s normal,” he said calmly. “Just turbulence.”
“Yeah,” you said through gritted teeth. “Normal. Totally fine. Great.”
The jet bounced again, more aggressively this time.
You sucked in a sharp breath and set the champagne down on the tray table. Your hand was shaking, and you hated that he could see it.
Jake shifted.
Without asking, he unbuckled and moved to the seat next to you, settling beside you like it was the most natural thing in the world.
Your eyes widened. “What are you—?”
“Helping,” he said simply.
You stared at him as he reached across the seat and took your hand — not forcefully, not dramatically, just… gently. His palm was warm, steady.
You blinked down at your joined hands, then up at his face.
Jake Seresin, who once fired an intern over an incorrect lunch order, was now holding your hand mid-flight like this was something he did.
“What the hell is happening?” you whispered.
“Shhh,” he said, eyes on yours. “Just pretend I’m your emotional support billionaire.”
That startled a laugh out of you, even as the plane gave another gentle sway.
Jake kept his eyes on your face. “Better?”
You exhaled slowly. “A little.”
“That’s what I’m here for.”
You looked at him again, hard. “You don’t… seem like the kind of man who does hand-holding.”
Jake smirked faintly. “I’m full of surprises.”
And for once, he didn’t follow it up with a jab or a condescending remark. He just let the silence settle — and somehow, it wasn’t uncomfortable.
The turbulence passed. The cabin smoothed out. The fasten seatbelt sign dimmed.
But Jake didn’t move his hand.
And you… didn’t pull away.
Eventually, you relaxed back into your seat, fingers still laced with his. The leather was soft against your back. The champagne glass stayed untouched. And Jake — infuriating, complicated, impossible Jake — sat beside you quietly, as if it were the most normal thing in the world.
It should’ve been weird.
But it wasn’t.
Not even a little.
The plane touched down with a gentle thud on the tarmac of San Diego’s private airport, and the moment the wheels kissed the runway, you could finally breathe.
Jake had let go of your hand somewhere over New Mexico — slow, almost reluctant — and gone quiet after that, returning to the cold, closed-off version of himself you were more familiar with. You didn’t mention it, but you felt it like a cold draft beneath a door. The shift. The boundary snapping back into place.
The ride from the airport to the hotel was sleek and silent, chauffeured in a black SUV with tinted windows and complimentary bottled water that probably cost more than your rent. Jake answered emails on his phone. You reviewed the presentation schedule on your iPad. The world settled back into its roles: you, the assistant; him, the untouchable boss.
But something still lingered — like phantom warmth on your palm where his hand had been.
You pushed the thought away as the SUV pulled up to the grand circular driveway of the hotel. It was the kind of place that looked like old money and smelled like eucalyptus and exclusivity. Bellboys in tailored uniforms moved quickly to grab luggage, the doorman nodded with practiced elegance, and the marble lobby gleamed under high chandeliers.
Jake strolled in behind you, casually tucking his sunglasses into his jacket pocket, leaving a trail of silent awe as hotel staff and guests alike registered the CEO of Seresin International in their lobby.
You, already in full assistant mode, approached the front desk with your confirmation emails at the ready.
“Hi,” you said to the impeccably dressed receptionist. “Reservation under Seresin International. It should be for two rooms — a suite and a standard.”
The woman at the desk smiled warmly and began typing. Her perfectly-manicured nails clacked softly on the keys.
“Welcome. Yes, I see it right here—one-bedroom suite, single king bed.”
You blinked.
“No—sorry. It should be two rooms. One suite, one standard.”
She frowned slightly and turned the screen to check again. “No, I have only one reservation. One room.”
Your spine stiffened. “That’s not possible. I booked two rooms. I have the confirmation right here—”
“I understand,” she said patiently. “But I only have one reservation under your company name. It’s the executive suite with a single king bed.”
You stared at her, mouth open slightly. “So not even two beds? Just one? That’s ridiculous. We don’t even need a suite—”
“Ma’am,” she said with a placid smile, “the reservation is nonrefundable.”
You were already pulling up the email confirmation, about to weaponize your most condescending lawyer-voice even though you were not a lawyer. “This is ridiculous. Someone in your booking department obviously screwed this up—”
“Problem?” came a drawling voice from just behind your shoulder.
You didn’t even turn. “Yes. Your hotel is apparently incapable of properly reading a reservation form.”
Jake stepped up beside you, arching a brow at the receptionist who, now clearly recognizing him, looked like she was about to offer him her social security number if he asked nicely.
Jake looked back at you, entirely unbothered. “So they only have one room?”
“One bed, Jake.”
He nodded slowly, then looked at the receptionist with that infuriating, charming smile of his. “Honest mistake. Just give us the key.”
You turned to him so fast your earrings nearly hit your face. “What?”
He didn’t even flinch. “It’s fine.”
“No, it’s not fine. We’re not��this isn’t—we’re not sharing a bed.”
Jake turned to you, calm and borderline amused. “It’s a king. I don’t snore. We’ll survive.”
“You don’t snore,” you repeated, scandalized. “You’re Mr. ‘I Demand Excellence’ and now you’re just—just letting this slide?”
“Would you rather argue about it for the next thirty minutes while they try to ‘look into it’ and tell us they’re fully booked anyway?” he asked dryly, signing the check-in paperwork. “Or would you rather go upstairs, shower off the recycled air, and have room service deliver a $50 salad?”
You opened your mouth to protest, to fight, to shout about principles and boundaries—
—and then the receptionist handed Jake the keycard, smiling like she’d just handed over her firstborn.
“Enjoy your stay, Mr. Seresin.”
Jake turned to you and extended the key.
“Shall we?”
You stared at him. “Who are you?”
Jake only smirked. “Just trying not to scare the staff.”
“Since when?”
He didn’t answer. Just gestured toward the elevators with a gentlemanly flourish.
You narrowed your eyes, snatched the key from his hand, and stalked toward the elevator with your carry-on rolling behind you. Jake followed, quiet but smug.
And as the elevator doors closed behind you, sealing you both in a mirrored box with plush carpeting and soft jazz, you found yourself wondering—not for the first time—if maybe Jake Seresin was full of surprises after all.
The elevator dinged softly as it reached the 21st floor, the penthouse level.
Jake stepped out first, rolling his sleek black luggage like he was gliding down a runway, while you followed with a mixture of dread, exhaustion, and righteous fury still bubbling under your skin.
When you reached the door at the very end of the hall — naturally, the nicest and most dramatic door on the floor, with an ornate brass handle and a discreet “Presidential Suite” plaque beside it — Jake gestured gallantly for you to do the honors.
You ignored him and slid the keycard through the reader. The light flashed green with a soft click, and you pushed the door open.
The suite was… gorgeous.
High ceilings, sweeping city views, walls of floor-to-ceiling windows. A modern, chic living room with a gas fireplace, a dining nook with a marble table, and a full bar that looked like it belonged in a Bond villain’s lair. To your left was the sprawling bedroom, where a single, painfully luxurious king-size bed sat dead center, flanked by two nightstands and a soft Persian rug.
You stared at the bed.
It stared back.
Jake rolled his luggage inside like he had not just volunteered the two of you for a week-long game of platonic cohabitation Olympics. He dropped the handle and stretched lazily, spine cracking in at least three places.
You slowly turned toward the couch — low-backed, designer, obviously worth more than your yearly rent — and tilted your head, considering the probability of it being even remotely comfortable for sleeping. Not great.
“Don’t even think about it,” Jake said behind you.
You turned. “Think about what?”
“The couch.”
You crossed your arms. “I wasn’t thinking anything.”
“You absolutely were.” He dropped onto the bed, bouncing a little with the sheer cloud-like give of the mattress. “If you’re waiting for me to offer to sleep on the floor, I’m not doing it.”
You blinked. “You’re not serious.”
Jake toed off his shoes, then reclined like he owned the damn suite. (He probably did own the suite. Or the chain. Or the continent, who knew.)
“Your back will seize by midnight on that couch. I’ll be asleep, and then you’ll writhe around dramatically and blame me for it.”
You narrowed your eyes. “I would not blame you for my bad back.”
“You would. And you’d whine about it for at least 72 hours.”
“I don’t whine.”
Jake gave you a look. “Sweetheart, you once complained about the espresso machine at the office like it had personally offended your ancestors.”
“That’s because it sucks, and if we’re being honest, it’s not espresso—it’s burnt sadness in liquid form.”
Jake smirked. “Exactly.”
You glared. “This is deflection.”
He shrugged, rolling onto his side. “Just share the bed. I won’t bite.”
He paused, then added with a devil-may-care grin: “Unless you want me to.”
You blinked. Once. Twice.
Your brain blue-screened for half a second before it caught up with your mouth. “Excuse me?”
Jake didn’t move. Didn’t even look at you. Just reached for the remote on the nightstand and turned the TV on like he hadn’t just casually lobbed a sexual innuendo into the air between you like a grenade.
You stared at him in disbelief. “Did you just—was that—was that a joke?”
“I don’t know,” he replied lazily, flipping through channels. “You tell me.”
You opened your mouth. Closed it. Your thoughts were screaming but none of them were coherent.
He was still not looking at you. Still pretending like this was the most casual, innocent exchange in the world, like he hadn’t just cracked the entire foundation of your professional tension with a single perfectly delivered line.
You turned toward the bathroom before your face could betray the tiny flicker of heat crawling up your neck.
“I’m taking the first shower,” you snapped, marching toward the door.
“Take your time,” Jake called after you, voice smooth. “I’ll just be here. Not biting.”
You slammed the bathroom door behind you with more force than necessary.
And inside the oversized, spa-like space, you stared at your reflection in the mirror — at your wide eyes, your flushed cheeks, the flustered energy vibrating in your chest — and muttered, “What the hell just happened?”
The bathroom door clicked shut behind Jake, and the sound of running water started a moment later.
You were already in bed, propped up against a mountain of pillows like a fort, your iPad balanced on your lap. Work was open, glowing quietly in the dark, a spreadsheet in desperate need of organization. But you were very aware that no amount of pivot tables would distract you from the fact that Jake Seresin was about to exit that bathroom… in what? A robe? A towel? Nothing?
You swallowed and focused hard on the screen.
He was taking forever. On purpose, you were sure.
And then, finally, the water stopped.
You refused to look when you heard the door open. Refused.
You could hear him padding softly across the room — barefoot — and that was fine. That was normal. You didn’t even blink when he dropped something onto the dresser with a casual thud. But then he walked into your peripheral vision, and all your self-restraint disintegrated like sugar in hot tea.
He was shirtless.
Of course he was.
Just a pair of black boxer briefs riding low on his hips, skin still damp from the shower, hair a little tousled and curling faintly at the ends. He smelled like his cologne — expensive and devastating — and something clean and citrusy from the hotel shampoo.
You looked once. Just once.
And regretted it immediately.
Because damn.
He was obnoxiously fit. Broad chest, defined abs, and a deep V that disappeared under the waistband of his underwear like an arrow pointing straight to hell. You could see the towel slung casually over one shoulder, the way he ran one hand through his wet hair, like he was starring in a shampoo commercial and knew it.
You focused on your screen. “You couldn’t wear a shirt?”
“I could,” Jake said, walking past the foot of the bed to plug in his phone, “but I just took a shower.”
“That doesn’t answer my question.”
He smirked, not looking at you. “Are you scandalized, sweetheart?”
“Mortified.”
“Don’t worry,” he said lightly, finally climbing into the other side of the bed. “I won’t bite.”
“That’s the second time you’ve said that.”
“I’m very consistent.”
You rolled your eyes, but didn’t look up. Not even when the mattress dipped as he settled beside you.
It wasn’t fair. He didn’t look like the kind of guy who should use a three-piece suit as armor for his personality. Out of the office, without the power tie and the thousand-dollar watch, he just looked like a man — a smug, annoyingly gorgeous man — with muscles for days and way too much confidence.
Jake leaned back against the headboard, stretching one arm behind it and casually brushing his fingers through his damp hair again. The whole room suddenly felt warmer.
He glanced over at your iPad. “You’re still working?”
“Yes,” you said, not looking at him. “Because one of us has to make sure the merger doesn’t implode.”
“You’re off the clock.”
“I’m never off the clock.”
Jake tilted his head slightly, watching the way your fingers flew across the screen. “You know, most people in bed this late are watching trash TV or texting their exes.”
“I don’t have an ex. Or time for trash TV.”
He hummed. “Tragic.”
You didn’t reply. Just kept typing, ignoring the fact that his thigh was maybe one inch away from yours under the comforter. Ignoring the slow, almost casual way he let out a low exhale, like he was perfectly at peace while you were dying inside.
The tension was thick. Almost painful.
Your iPad screen dimmed.
Jake was still watching you. Or maybe not watching, but aware. You could feel his presence like static electricity. Like if either of you moved too suddenly, something might snap.
You exhaled slowly and turned off the iPad, setting it on the nightstand.
Then, as if on cue, Jake shifted slightly, laying fully onto his side now, one arm tucked under the pillow, the other resting across his waist. You could feel his eyes on you again.
“What?” you asked quietly, staring up at the ceiling.
“Nothing.”
“You’re staring.”
“I’m admiring.”
You turned your head toward him slowly, eyes narrowed. “That’s worse.”
Jake just smiled, low and lazy. “You look good when you’re annoyed. It’s cute.”
“Go to sleep, Seresin.”
“You first, boss.”
You rolled to your side, back facing him, cheeks burning, heart thudding like it was trying to escape.
And behind you, Jake shifted too — just enough that his knee brushed the back of yours.
He didn’t move it.
Neither did you.
The silence stretched. Comfortable and tense all at once.
And somewhere deep in your chest, where irritation usually lived when it came to Jake, something softer settled in its place — like a seed waiting to take root.
This trip was going to ruin you.
The next two days passed in a blur of hotel carpets, endless coffee, and conference rooms so aggressively beige they made your soul shrivel. Jake glided through it all like the cocky CEO he was — perfectly tailored suits, cool confidence, answering every question like he owned the building. Which, to be fair, wasn’t a stretch. He had sponsored half the event.
You were at his side every moment. Clipboard, tablet, schedule, presentations. Managing him like always — flawlessly — and for the most part, nothing changed.
Except it did.
It started small.
The first morning, he handed you your coffee with a smirk. “One sugar, no cream, just like your soul.”
You blinked at him, brows raising. “You remembered my order?”
“Of course.” He sipped his own. “I like my assistants caffeine-dependent and emotionally unavailable.”
You stared.
He walked away like nothing happened.
The second shift came that afternoon, during a panel. You leaned in to whisper something — a reminder about time — and Jake turned his head slightly toward you, close enough that your words brushed the shell of his ear. His eyes flicked to yours, unreadable.
And then he said, completely straight-faced, “If you whisper in my ear like that again, I can’t be held responsible for my behavior.”
You recoiled, flustered. “What the hell, Seresin?”
“I’m just giving you a heads-up,” he said, shrugging and refocusing on the speaker like he hadn’t just short-circuited your entire nervous system.
That night in the hotel room, he stripped off his shirt like usual, casually tossing it onto a chair. You didn’t flinch anymore. You’d trained your eyes to stay up.
Mostly.
He climbed into bed beside you, gave you one of those lazy, lopsided grins, and said, “Just so you know, you talk in your sleep.”
You froze mid-scroll on your tablet. “…I do not.”
“Last night you mumbled something about… spreadsheets and betrayal. It was dramatic. Very you.”
You shoved the comforter higher and glared at him. “If you ever repeat that, I swear I’ll poison your green juice.”
Jake just chuckled and turned onto his side, back facing you, his shoulders shaking slightly from silent laughter.
You did not stare at his back muscles.
Much.
The second day, it only got worse.
He held open every door, casually pressing his hand to your lower back each time.
He handed you pens like he was placing rings on your fingers.
At one point, when you were mid-conversation with a client, he stepped behind you and adjusted your blazer collar, fingers ghosting over your neck like it was nothing.
But it was not nothing and you nearly dropped your tablet.
Even now, walking beside him through the hotel’s long marble corridor after the evening keynote, you were still off-balance. Still trying to figure out what the hell was happening.
“You’re unusually quiet tonight,” Jake commented, his hands in his pockets, voice smooth.
You shot him a sidelong look. “Are you flirting with me?”
He didn’t miss a beat. “Would it work if I were?”
You stopped walking. “I’m your assistant.”
Jake paused too, turning toward you, the dim hallway lights casting a soft glow over his face. “So?”
You blinked. “So, what’s gotten into you?”
He smiled slightly. Not smug — not this time. Just… amused. “Nothing. I just like messing with you.”
You narrowed your eyes. “Right. Of course. God forbid you go five minutes without being insufferable.”
Jake leaned in, close enough that your breath caught. “You’re cute when you’re flustered, boss.”
And with that, he turned and kept walking, leaving you frozen in place, rethinking your entire existence.
That night in the suite, you didn’t speak much. Jake showered first. Came out shirtless, as usual. Didn’t even acknowledge it. He scrolled on his phone, tossed you a bottle of water without looking.
But the tension was there.
Unspoken. Crackling. Pressed into every inch of the shared air between you.
You crawled under the covers, flicked the lamp off, and stared at the ceiling.
Jake lay next to you, one arm behind his head, gaze fixed on nothing.
After a moment, he said quietly, “We’re a good team, you know.”
You turned your head slightly, catching the outline of his profile in the dark.
“…Yeah,” you whispered. “We are.”
He glanced over at you, eyes searching yours in the low light. “Try not to dream about me too loudly tonight, boss.”
You groaned into your pillow. “You’re insufferable.”
And yet, your lips curled into a traitorous smile anyway.
The third day dawned with pale gold light bleeding through the suite’s sheer curtains. You were already awake when Jake emerged from the bathroom, towel slung low on his hips, steam following him like a cloud. His usual smirk was missing — replaced with a yawn and a scratch to his abs that you definitely didn’t notice.
Much.
You’d both fallen into the rhythm of the conference. Meetings, panels, coffee breaks, networking events. Coordinated in your chaos, like always.
Except now, something was different. Jake had been quieter that morning. Not cold, just… watchful. You caught him glancing at you more than once as you got ready — his gaze trailing from your heels to the neat twist in your hair. But every time you looked up, he was already pretending to check his watch or adjust his cufflinks.
By noon, the two of you were at a rooftop luncheon hosted by some fintech giant. The catered food was suspiciously pretty, the kind of salad that made you crave a burger just by looking at it. You and Jake had split up momentarily — he was across the space, talking to some board member in a navy suit, expression sharp and unreadable. You stood by a tall cocktail table, sipping something vaguely citrusy and waiting for him to finish.
And then he appeared.
You hadn’t even noticed the older man until he was suddenly beside you, all fake charm and far too much cologne.
“Well, hello,” he said, giving your figure a slow, pointed once-over before offering his hand. “Didn’t realize this event came with such… lovely scenery.”
You blinked. “Excuse me?”
“I’m Marcus Klein. Real estate investments. And you are?”
“…Just here for work.”
He grinned, undeterred. “Bet you make a hell of an assistant, huh? Do you come with the suit, or is that just part of the fantasy?”
Your spine went stiff. You took a step back, glancing subtly around for Jake.
“Let me buy you a drink,” the man continued, eyes still traveling places they had no right to be. “Maybe slip away from all this corporate crap, get a little more… comfortable.”
You opened your mouth — ready to tell him off — but before a single syllable could escape, a hand landed firmly on your waist.
“Is there a problem here?”
Jake.
The tone of his voice was low. Dangerous. Like the hum of a storm before it cracked open the sky.
Marcus turned, clearly unimpressed. “We’re just talking, buddy—”
“No,” Jake said, deadly calm, “you were talking. She wasn’t interested.”
Marcus chuckled nervously. “Didn’t realize she was spoken for.”
Jake stepped forward, blocking your body with his, hand still planted at your hip. “She’s not a piece of property. She doesn’t need to be spoken for. But you do need to fuck off before I forget where I am and put your ass through that railing.”
A stunned silence fell over your little corner of the rooftop. A few heads turned. Marcus went a shade paler.
“Alright,” the man muttered, backing up with hands raised. “Message received.”
He disappeared into the crowd.
You exhaled, only then realizing how tightly you’d been gripping your glass.
Jake turned to face you, jaw still clenched.
“You okay?” he asked, voice tight.
You nodded slowly. “Yeah. Thanks. He was just—”
“I saw.”
You glanced up at him. His expression was still stormy, eyes narrowed, chest rising and falling faster than normal.
You touched his wrist gently. “Jake.”
That broke the tension — a little. He looked down at your hand, then back at your face.
“He shouldn’t have talked to you like that,” he muttered. “I should’ve been—”
“It’s not your fault.”
He didn’t answer right away. Just stared at you like the wind had been knocked out of him. Then his hand — the one at your waist — shifted, almost without him realizing it. His thumb brushed a light circle against your dress.
“We’re getting out of here,” he said quietly. “Come on.”
You didn’t argue. You just followed him, pulse still racing for reasons that had nothing to do with Marcus Klein.
You didn’t say much on the ride back to the hotel.
Jake was still worked up — you could feel it radiating off him like heat from asphalt. His jaw was tight. One hand on the steering wheel, the other flexing restlessly in his lap. You tried to thank him again for stepping in, but he only gave a clipped, “Forget it,” and turned up the AC.
So you rode in silence.
When you reached the hotel, he didn’t wait for the valet. Just tossed the keys and stormed inside, not looking back to check if you were following. You were.
The elevator ride up was thick with unspoken words. You stood at opposite ends of the cabin, your reflection fractured in the mirrored walls. Jake was breathing hard, like he’d just come off a sprint.
By the time you entered the suite, he still hadn’t cooled down.
Jake yanked off his suit jacket and threw it over a chair. His fingers tugged loose the first two buttons of his shirt, then he stalked to the minibar and poured himself a drink — straight scotch, of course. No ice. No words.
You stood by the window, arms crossed over your chest, watching him.
“What is wrong with you?” you finally asked, sharp but confused.
Jake didn’t answer. Just took a long swallow of scotch, then tossed the glass down a little too hard.
“Jake.”
He looked at you — really looked at you. Like he was seeing you for the first time. Like he couldn’t believe what he was about to say.
And still… he said it anyway.
“You’re mine.”
The words punched the air between you.
You blinked. “What?”
Jake didn’t flinch. Just took a step closer, eyes locked on yours.
“That guy—” He exhaled sharply, like just remembering it pissed him off all over again. “He looked at you like you were something to take. Like you were just decoration. And it made me want to rip his fucking head off.”
Your throat went dry.
“Jake…”
“I know you’re my assistant. I know I’m your boss. I know I’m the last person who should be saying this, but fuck it.” He ran a hand through his hair, the raw edge in his voice shaking something loose in your chest. “You’re mine. I feel it every time you roll your eyes at me. Every time you hand me a coffee and mutter some smart-ass comment under your breath. Every time I walk into a room and the only thing I’m looking for is you.”
You stood frozen.
“I don’t want anyone else touching you,” he said, softer now. “Talking to you like that. Hell, even looking at you like they’ve got a chance. Because they don’t. Not if I have anything to say about it.”
The silence that followed was deafening.
Your mouth parted, but no words came out.
Jake took a step forward.
“I know it’s not part of the job description,” he said, voice lower now. “I know it’s complicated. But I had to say it.”
Another beat passed. Then two.
And finally, you spoke — voice barely above a whisper.
“You’re serious.”
Jake gave a bitter little smile. “Dead serious.”
You swallowed hard. The tension between you had always been there — unspoken, electric — but this… this was a spark to a powder keg.
Slowly, you stepped toward him. Each step measured, hesitant, until you were standing just a breath away.
“Say it again,” you said quietly. “Say it like you mean it.”
Jake stared at you — then reached out and touched your wrist, fingers light and tentative, like he couldn’t quite believe you were real.
“You’re mine,” he said, low and certain. “And I’m yours.”
His mouth was on yours before you could even fully process what he’d just said. One hand curled possessively around the back of your neck, the other flattening against your lower back, dragging you flush against him with no space left to think, to breathe, to do anything but feel.
Jake kissed like he did everything — with confidence, with precision, like he already knew exactly what you liked. He tilted your head, deepened it, exhaled into your mouth like he was finally getting a taste of something he’d been craving for too long.
You could barely keep up. His touch was firm, practiced, but there was an edge to him now. A hunger beneath all that control.
You stumbled back toward the bed, bumping into the edge as Jake’s hands slid down your hips. He paused just long enough to press his forehead to yours, his breath uneven.
“You sure?” he asked, voice low and rasped. “Because once I start—”
You didn’t let him finish. You surged forward and kissed him again, tugging him down with you as your knees hit the mattress. “Shut up, Seresin.”
A deep, throaty laugh vibrated against your lips. “Yes, boss.”
Clothes came off in rushed, frantic layers. Your blouse unbuttoned halfway before Jake got impatient and yanked it over your head. His shirt was already long gone, leaving his golden skin and sculpted chest on full display. You barely had a second to ogle him — all abs and muscle and smugness — before he lowered his head and dragged his mouth along your jaw.
“You have no idea what you do to me,” he muttered, lips brushing down the column of your throat.
You arched toward him, heat curling in your belly. “Maybe I do.”
His hand slid up your thigh, coaxing it higher as he knelt between your knees, his body caging yours without fully pressing down yet.
“Always so mouthy,” Jake murmured, fingertips ghosting over the waistband of your underwear. “Bet you talk back in bed, too.”
“I give orders,” you shot back, breath catching.
Jake’s eyes flared, his smile devilish. “Then tell me what you want.”
That made you pause — blinking up at him. He wasn’t teasing. Not really. His voice was low, quiet. Like he meant it.
You swallowed. “Take your time.”
Jake raised a brow. “Not what I expected.”
You smirked. “I’ve waited this long. I want to feel everything.”
His pupils dilated. “Say less.”
And then he lowered himself, dragging his mouth over your stomach, down your thighs, spreading you open with careful, reverent hands. His fingers splayed against your skin like he couldn’t bear not to touch. And when his mouth met you — slow, deliberate, hungry — your hands flew to his hair, anchoring yourself to the only thing in the room not spinning.
Jake was good. Too good. Focused. Intent. Like the only thing he cared about in the entire world was the sound of your breathing catching and the way your thighs trembled. He didn’t rush. Not once. Just built you up and held you there, murmuring soft praise against your skin, coaxing every sound out of you until your voice was wrecked and your back arched clean off the bed.
You were still trying to remember how to breathe when he kissed his way back up your body — lips slick, eyes dark.
“That’s once,” he whispered, nipping your bottom lip.
You blinked up at him, dazed. “You’re counting?”
“Oh yeah,” he said, pressing a kiss to your shoulder. “We’re not done yet.”
You gasped as his fingers slid between your legs again, teasing.
“Jake—”
“Say my name like that again,” he groaned. “Swear to God.”
You gripped his shoulders, dizzy. “I thought you were in control here.”
He leaned down, lips brushing your ear. “I am. And you’re gonna let me take care of you — over and over again.”
His words — low, possessive, tender — sent another jolt through you.
And he did. He made good on every promise, every smirk, every arrogant line he’d ever thrown your way. Until you were tangled in the sheets, pulse stuttering, nails dug into his back, your voice raw from saying his name too many times to count.
At some point, you ended up curled into his side, heart still racing. Jake reached for the comforter, pulling it over the both of you before pressing a kiss to your temple.
“Bossy little thing,” he murmured fondly.
You breathed out a laugh, cheek pressed to his chest. “Don’t get used to this.”
He grinned, trailing his fingers down your arm. “Too late.”
They didn’t go back to the conference.
In fact, they barely left the suite.
The only time the bed was made was when they peeled the sheets off just to toss them to the floor again. The minibar had been emptied, room service was left untouched, and the Do Not Disturb sign stayed firmly on the door — like a warning, like a promise.
Jake had a one-track mind and a laser focus, and unfortunately for your legs, it was entirely directed at you.
He’d wake you with slow kisses down your spine, hands gliding under the sheets, brushing between your thighs like he was just checking if you were still as soft and warm and wet as he remembered. (You were.)
And then he’d disappear under the blankets with a sinful little chuckle, like a man on a mission.
“Jake,” you groaned more than once, half-pleading, half-scolding.
“Mhm?” he’d reply lazily, nuzzling closer to your hipbone. “Still not done tasting you.”
Because that was the thing: Jake Seresin loved eating you out like it was the last meal he’d ever have. Like your body was a map he needed to memorize, one moan at a time. He’d pin your thighs open with those strong, broad hands of his, settling between them like he belonged there. And at this point, maybe he did.
He never rushed. Not once.
There was something about the way he watched you — sometimes with eyes half-lidded, sometimes sharp and focused like he was cataloguing every reaction. He’d lock eyes with you when you tried to squirm away, when your hands fisted in the sheets or in his hair, when you whimpered his name and gasped out how good it felt. And then he’d smirk, just a little, and go right back to driving you out of your mind.
“You always this bossy in bed?” he asked, voice low, teasing, right before dragging his tongue over you again.
“Only when you’re being too slow,” you shot back, breathless, trying to glare but failing miserably.
Jake laughed — a warm, gravelly sound against your skin — and doubled down, making it his mission to wring every reaction out of you.
There was one afternoon, the fifth day maybe, where he laid you back on the bed and kissed down your body with something close to reverence. He paused at your navel, then further, parting your thighs like he owned them.
You were already panting, fingers twitching against the comforter.
“I ever tell you how pretty you sound when you fall apart for me?” he asked softly, lips brushing over the inside of your thigh.
You tried to sass him, to throw out something snarky, but then he did something with his tongue and your brain just… fizzled.
And when he didn’t stop — when he kept going long after you thought he would, long after your voice had gone hoarse from calling his name — you felt tears prick the corners of your eyes.
It wasn’t just the overstimulation. It was the way he held you, touched you, the quiet hum of satisfaction in his throat every time your hips stuttered or your body trembled under him. Like he didn’t just want you unraveled — he wanted you adored.
At some point — some long, dizzy stretch of afternoon light — you finally begged him to come up and kiss you, tugging on his shoulders, your limbs boneless and trembling.
He did. Mouth slick, eyes gleaming, grinning like a man who’d just conquered a city.
You pressed your forehead to his and whispered, “You’re gonna kill me.”
Jake just smirked. “Not yet, sugar. I’ve got plans for after dinner.”
You rolled your eyes and tried to shove him off you.
He didn’t budge. He just wrapped his arms around your waist, dragging you on top of him like it was the most natural thing in the world, like he needed to feel your heartbeat against his to remind himself you were real.
And as the sun dipped outside, painting the curtains gold, you realized something that scared you more than all his teasing ever could:
You were starting to hope he didn’t stop.
The final night settled like a soft sigh over the city, the glow of the skyline bleeding in through the sheer hotel curtains, casting the room in dusky gold. It should’ve felt like the end of something — the last page of a chapter — but in that quiet space between dinner and packing, it just felt still.
Jake was behind you, his hands at your waist, thumbs stroking the bare skin above the waistband of your sleep shorts. You stood at the window like you’d done every night, pretending to admire the view when really, you were buying yourself a few more moments — moments before the spell broke, before you went back to being his assistant and he went back to being your boss and none of this could happen again.
“You’ve been quiet tonight,” he murmured, voice low against your neck.
You didn’t answer right away. Because if you turned around now — if you looked at him — you weren’t sure you could keep pretending this was just a fling. Just an accident.
“Just tired,” you lied, soft.
Jake’s hands tightened slightly at your waist. “Liar.”
That one word sent a flicker through your belly.
You turned your head a little. “Excuse me?”
He moved closer, chest flush to your back now, and when he spoke again, his mouth brushed your ear.
“You’re not tired,” he said, voice dark, almost smug. “You’re overthinking.”
You hated that he was right. You hated that he knew he was right.
“Jake—”
“I get it,” he cut in gently, but firmly, arms sliding fully around your waist to pull you against him. “We go back tomorrow. It’s back to boardrooms and meetings and pretending we don’t look at each other like we want to rip each other’s clothes off in the elevator.”
Your breath hitched.
He turned you slowly in his arms, eyes scanning your face with quiet focus, his hands staying at your hips.
“But I’m not pretending anymore,” he said, the honesty in his voice knocking the wind from your lungs. “I don’t want to go back to pretending. Not after this.”
You blinked up at him, lips parted.
“I know you feel it too,” he added, voice rough now. “The way you melt for me. The way I can’t stop touching you because I’m scared I’ll forget what it feels like when we’re back in that damn office and you’re making snide comments about my suits again.”
A breathless laugh escaped your lips before you could stop it.
Jake grinned.
And then — like gravity had its own rules around the two of you — you were kissing him again.
This time, it was slower. Less frantic than the other nights. More intentional.
Jake kissed like he had all the time in the world, like you weren’t leaving tomorrow, like he could memorize you piece by piece if he just took his time. His hands mapped your back, your waist, the curve of your hips — warm and sure and patient. When he pulled back, his gaze dropped to your mouth.
“Take your shirt off,” he murmured.
You raised an eyebrow. “So bossy.”
“Only matching your energy, sweetheart.” He grinned. “Besides, you know I like to watch.”
You did.
You also knew exactly what he meant.
You peeled the fabric over your head slowly, relishing the way his eyes tracked your every movement, how his tongue flicked across his lower lip when your bra followed.
He growled, low in his throat. “You’re gonna kill me.”
You smirked, stepping back toward the bed. “Then come die happy, Mr. CEO.”
He was on you before your back even hit the mattress — mouth on yours, one knee between your thighs, hands pinning your wrists above your head.
“You know, I had every intention of going slow tonight,” he whispered against your neck, dragging his lips along the skin there. “But then you had to go and get all bratty.”
You gasped as his teeth grazed your collarbone.
“I didn’t—”
“You did,” he interrupted, licking the sting away. “But that’s alright. I like you mouthy. Gives me more reason to shut you up.”
“Jake—”
His hand slipped between your thighs, dragging the waistband of your shorts down just enough to slide his fingers over you.
“God,” he groaned. “Still so fucking wet for me.”
You moaned, arching into him.
“Tell me what you want,” he said, lips brushing your ear.
“I want you to—”
“Uh-uh,” he cut in, teasing again. “Be specific. You’re the bossy one, remember?”
You narrowed your eyes at him. “Fine. I want your mouth. Now.”
He laughed — dark and thrilled — and then disappeared between your thighs with a reverence that made your skin shiver.
Jake worshipped you. That was the only word for it. His mouth moved over you with purpose, with precision, tongue teasing and flicking and curling until your thighs trembled and your hands clawed the sheets. He held your hips down, humming like your moans were his favorite song, eyes locked on you when you dared to look down at him.
When you came, he kept going — slow, lazy licks that made you writhe, that dragged the heat in your belly back to life.
“You can give me another,” he said, like a promise, like a challenge.
You whimpered, already overwhelmed.
“Don’t you want me to come back with you?” he teased, mouth still on you. “Then let me ruin you properly. Let me make sure no one else even tries.”
Another climax rolled through you with a cry.
He didn’t stop until you begged.
And then he finally moved back up, bracing himself above you, his lips red and slick, his pupils blown wide.
“I meant what I said,” he murmured, kissing you softly now, almost sweetly. “About not wanting this to end.”
You looked up at him, heart thudding painfully.
“I don’t either,” you whispered.
His forehead pressed to yours. “Then let’s not.”
And when he sank into you that final night, slow and deep and grounding, you both understood that whatever had started in a sleek corner office back in New York had evolved into something else entirely.
-
The hum of the jet engines filled the silence like a secret.
You sat across from Jake in the plush leather seat, your legs curled beneath you, the afterglow of the trip hanging in the quiet air between you. Below, the world stretched endlessly — clouds scattered like silk across the sky, cities tucked beneath them, unaware of the shift that had happened in the space between takeoff and landing.
Neither of you had said much since boarding. There hadn’t been a need.
Your body still hummed from the way he’d touched you last night. The way he’d looked at you. Like you weren’t just his assistant anymore. Like you were something else entirely — something sacred.
Jake sat across from you, a tumbler of water in his hand instead of scotch this time, the sleeves of his black button-down rolled up, throat bare where the first few buttons had been undone. His jaw flexed when he glanced at you. You were in one of his shirts — his favorite shirt, in fact — sleeves too long and hem brushing your bare thighs. You hadn't meant for it to feel intimate, but it did.
Everything about today felt intimate.
“You’re quiet,” you finally said, voice soft but steady.
Jake looked at you slowly, eyes darker than usual, thoughtful. “So are you.”
“Just… thinking.”
He nodded once. “Same.”
You tucked your chin into your palm, watching him. “About what?”
Jake let out a breath — not quite a sigh. “About how I’m supposed to go back to pretending you’re just my assistant again.”
That made your heart do something complicated in your chest.
“I don’t want to pretend either,” you said softly, honesty slipping through before you could edit it.
His eyes flicked up at you at that — something tightening in his jaw. “Then don’t.”
You didn’t answer.
Instead, you rose slowly to your feet.
Jake followed your movements like you were gravity itself. His eyes never left you as you stepped over, climbed into his lap, and settled your knees on either side of his thighs.
It was quiet for a moment.
Just your breathing
Just his hands finding your waist, sliding beneath the hem of the shirt to touch skin he already knew by heart.
“You sure about this?” he asked, voice low, rough.
You nodded. “I just want to feel you again.”
He leaned in, his forehead pressing gently to yours. “Then ride me, baby.”
The way he said it made your breath catch.
Slowly, you reached between your bodies, unbuttoning his slacks, your fingers careful but aching with need. He helped, lifting his hips just enough so you could free him, and then he sat back in the leather seat, watching you through half-lidded eyes like you were the only thing in the world worth seeing.
You slid your panties to the side and sank onto him slowly.
Jake’s head fell back, a quiet fuck escaping his lips.
He felt so good — thick and warm and grounding. You paused for a moment, adjusting, breathing. His hands were already on your thighs, thumbs stroking lazy, soothing circles.
“Take your time,” he whispered. “I’m not going anywhere.”
You moved slowly at first, rocking your hips in steady, rolling motions. Jake didn’t try to take control — not yet. He let you lead, but his hands never left your body. One traced up your spine, fingers curling around the nape of your neck. The other gripped your hip, steadying you, guiding you with soft pressure when you faltered.
“Look at you,” he murmured. “So fuckin’ pretty like this.”
Your hands were braced on his shoulders, your breath stuttering each time you sank down. His praise made your body clench around him — and he felt it.
“Oh,” he groaned, grip tightening. “Do that again.”
You did.
And again.
And again.
The rhythm grew messier, needier. You leaned forward slightly, your forehead resting against his. Jake brought a hand to your jaw, holding you there.
“You feel so good, sweetheart,” he whispered, voice wrecked. “So warm. So perfect.”
His lips brushed yours, just barely. Not quite a kiss. Not yet.
You whimpered, the tension coiling tighter in your belly, your thighs starting to tremble with the effort of holding on.
“Jake—”
“I’ve got you,” he murmured, sliding his hand between your bodies, finding the place he knew would undo you completely.
You gasped.
“Let go,” he whispered. “I wanna feel you fall apart on top of me.”
And you did.
The orgasm hit like a wave, stealing your breath and your balance. Jake held you through it, one arm around your waist now, cradling you to his chest as you shook. You collapsed against him, burying your face in his neck as he murmured praise into your hair.
“You’re okay,” he said, kissing your temple. “I’ve got you.”
You were still coming down when he shifted beneath you, lifting you gently as he thrust up once, twice, chasing his own release. His fingers dug into your hips as he groaned into your skin, spilling inside you with a shudder.
The cabin was silent except for your breathing.
You stayed like that — tangled together in the middle of a private jet, a mess of limbs and sighs and promises you hadn’t made out loud yet.
Jake finally leaned back to look at you.
“You know we’re not pretending anymore,” he said, like it wasn’t even a question.
You nodded.
And smiled.
“Good,” he whispered, tucking a strand of hair behind your ear. “Because I don’t want to sleep another night without you.”
You kissed him softly, sweetly, like an answer.
And then you stayed in his lap the whole way home.
