    It should be here today. My acceptance - or, God forbid, my rejection - to Stable College in Northern Maine. It was the one school I actually cared about getting into out of the seven I applied to. It was a small school compared to a University, but it was of the larger colleges I had come across during my search. Jack was applying there too, and I had always hoped we would stick together past high school since the start of our friendship freshman year. I think he thought the same thing, though he would never admit to it out loud.

A knot formed in my stomach; the tardiness of the letter felt like a bad sign. I shook my head, forcing negative thoughts out of my mind. It would probably just be here tomorrow. Mail arrives late sometimes.

    Until he found out about every last dark desire, every dirty scenario I’d ever dreamed up, and made me act them out with him in real life… Jase King was my boss, and the CEO of King Investments. His sharp, blue eyes pierced my heart like ice. Nothing about him was soft. He radiated strength, power, and cruelty. He was the man I’d been secretly been lusting after ever since I started working for him. The man whom I was completely terrified of, in every way. The very same man who would soon hold the keys to every dark, secret fantasy I’d ever had about him. When I first started writing my little story about a certain girl and her boss, I never in a million years imagined that Jase King would get his hands on it. I should’ve known better.
