Love from My Dominant Boss

Although not entirely effective, his words did anguish my anger quite a bit. I sighed. “I won’t deny that there’s chemistry between us. But, I’ll be upfront with you, I hate being doubted. I have my morals as well. Since I’ve decided to date you, I won’t get myself involve with other men.”
