Tasting All My Mates

409 The Forbidden Fruit

“Um Maynard! What do you want?” I got out of my chair when he walked way too close to my seat and stood behind the chair, keeping a suitable distance between us.

“I want you to check something for me. Lazlo told me he gave you some digits to fill in. I want to see that list.” He cleared his throat and shook his head after he noticed he had made me uncomfortable. I nodded, remembering the work Lazlo had given me.

“Sure, it is here.” I sounded normal, or, may I say, professional. Taking my seat again, I turned the laptop on, and he walked behind my chair to hunch over to see the list.

“This one here—,” I pointed at the screen but instead I felt, him bringing his face closer to my neck and breathing on me, “This is ummm the new details,” I knew I should have moved away from him but I just didn’t.

“Aha!” He didn’t pay attention to what I was showing him. Instead, he placed his hands on either side of me and blocked me in with his arms from behind. Next, he drew his face even closer until his lips came in direct contact with my skin, and my body shuddered visibly.

“What are you doing?” I asked with hesitation.

“Did I ever tell you that your scent makes my wolf go crazy? I don’t know what it is about you, Enya. But even when I know you are now a forbidden fruit for me, I just want to taste you,” he whispered and slid his lips around my cheek.

“No!” I shook my head and jumped out of the chair, removing his hands in haste and running to the other side of the desk. “What are you doing, Maynard?” I complained, watching him
