The Sheikh Bear
Ashley Hunter - 2015
white couch adjacent to the windows was certainly not Avani, but a very well dressed man. He was covered in a fine suit of a beautiful shade of cream and burgundy trim. He had an arm over his eyes so Elle couldn’t see his face clearly, but he looked to be at ease. Long legs resting over the white cushions, and his broad chest was moving gently, he looked like he was napping. Elle took in a cautionary breath, uncertain on what to do. Her first instinct was to turn around and leave, cursing herself for not having knocked earlier. To her surprise, Elle wasn’t given an opportunity. “Are you going to just stand there all day or are you going to come here?” The man spoke, not moving an inch aside from speaking. His voice was an attractive baritone with a lilt to his words that reminded Elle of a British accent, yet he rolled his tongue over some of the words pleasantly. Elle was spurred forward, taking a few steps deeper into the suite before she was standing a respectful distance from the couch. Finally, he lifted his arm from his eyes, thick brows arching as he beheld her. “And you are?” “Elle Roberts…?” Elle began, trying not to squirm visibly. “I’m starting as the new secretary for the Sheikh Zayn Ab…Ab…” “Zayn Abd al Malik,” he replied, his tongue rolling over the name with almost lazy precision. “Starting as his secretary and you can’t even say your employer’s name?” Reader Note: This content contains hot sex scenes, adult language, and possible violence.
