When their eyes met, Sam felt the heat envelope her from head to toe. They were the sexiest eyes she had ever seen. Intense, intelligent. Eyes that made her want to just lean into him and…

“I was thinking more of a lunch meeting. Are you hungry?” Logan asked as he motioned in the opposite direction of his office.

“I could eat.” She commented and then turned to follow him. Good grief, what the hell was she thinking? “You lead the way.”

Chapter Six

Logan found it difficult to keep from taking sideways glances at Samantha Kielty. She had fallen into step beside him, and despite their height difference, she managed to keep up with his long stride. Making a conscious effort to slow down, he let her get a step or two in front of him as they descended the stairs.

Admittedly, since he’d seen her that morning, Logan had found everything difficult. He couldn’t focus; he’d barely suffered through the last three meetings he’d been in. This woman managed to do what no other had done in years. She’d overwhelmed his mind since their conversation last week and that was before he’d seen all of her. When he’d gotten a close look at her in the hall that morning, Logan had been doomed.

Samantha Kielty was – what was the word he was looking for? Hot? No, that sounded too immature. But, it was one hell of an adjective.

Of course, there were other attractive women who worked at XTX, some who even made Sam look almost plain, but none that he had ever encountered turned him on like she did.

He wasn’t just captivated by her looks. No, with Samantha, it was more the whole package. Maybe the first hint of attraction had been when he saw her on the vid-con call, but the second she opened her mouth and he got a hint of her intelligence and wit, he knew he was a goner. Now, he had the pleasure of being in her company and no matter what mental lecture he gave himself about right, wrong, or indifferent, he wanted to spend more time with her. Just to get to know her better.

Looking at her was just an added bonus.

When they made it to the lobby, he motioned to the front doors which would lead them to the parking lot. As he held the door open, she barely brushed up against him, obviously not intentional because she flushed beautifully.

As he looked down at her, he grinned. Sam wasn’t tall, but she wasn’t short either. In those three inch heels that made her legs look incredibly long, not to mention sexy as hell, she came about chin level. She’d fit perfectly against him, and wasn’t that the most inappropriate thought he’d had in quite some time. Well, maybe not too long ago. Shit, he’d been thinking about her naked all weekend.

That was before he’d seen her body. Now he was still picturing her naked – except she was still wearing those sexy red heels. Damn it.

Making their way down the front steps, Logan caught a few other men who took second glances and despite his desire to shoot daggers from his eyes, he couldn’t blame them.

The short, black skirt she wore accented her well defined legs and her luscious ass. And honestly, her skirt wasn’t all that short, coming to the top of her knees, but she was every man’s wet dream.

Fuck. He had to get his head back in the game and off of this woman’s smoking hot body. This was his job, his life, and he didn’t have time to be entertaining any ideas about someone who worked for him. Not to mention, it wouldn’t look good for him to be eyeing her as he walked through the building.

When they approached his car, another man’s head turned, this time lingering a little too long for his own preference on her legs. His reaction was anything but professional. More possessive than anything and he knew when it came to this woman, he would make sure everyone knew she was off limits.

Especially to him.

He realized they’d walked the last few minutes without saying a word and he felt like an ass. Here she was, visiting the Dallas office as she pondered over a job offer he found himself hoping she would take and he was eyeing her rather than telling her as much as he could about the ins and outs of the corporate headquarters.

He clicked the key fob to unlock the doors on the black Cadillac CTS parked in the first row of the parking garage, and motioned for her to step in front of him. It took more will power than he thought he possessed not to let his eyes travel down the length of her backside, but somehow he managed.

He opened the passenger door and waited for her to get seated inside. Before shutting the door, he smiled again. Damn, this was going to be one hell of a lunch.

Once inside the car, he finally managed to find his voice. “So, what sounds good for lunch?”

He risked a glance in her direction, and when their eyes met, he could have sworn, for a brief second, he saw the same burning intensity in her gaze that he felt in his blood. But it could have been his imagination because just as quickly as he’d seen it, it was gone. He had to get his hormones under control. This was just business. He was taking her to lunch to get to know her a little bit better – strictly from a work perspective.
