His Temptation

Watching and longing

Chapter 17

Watching and longing

My blood is boiling.

How many men are my completion?

I am a peaceful man, but it makes me think of ways to get rid of these men hunting for Angelica’s love. I want her to be mine.

I love how she felt in my arms. I can't get the images from the evening at the bar out of my mind.

I needed to come and find Angelica, and when I walked up to her desk, I saw her back as she entered Mr. Matthew's office. I guess it’s not strange since she is his secretary. But it’s not fair he gets a hot woman like her to work for him. He gets to see her all day long. On the other hand, I have stolen glimpses of her and come up with reasons to see her.

I sit in her office chair; sitting at her desk is fantastic, and I smell her addictive scent. I can’t help but look through the drawers of her desk. If anyone knew what was happening in my mind, they would probably call me obsessed. I want to know everything about her; she will be mine. No matter if I have to fight off the CEO myself. I was busy going through her drawers, and a man approached me. He acts like he owns the place; he looks high and mighty. He looks down at me. I start to smile as I remember. I am sitting at Angelica’s desk. The secretarial desk of the CEO. I smile wide; he thinks I am Mr. Matthew's secretary. How can these secretaries stand the filthy looks they get from some people?

“Hello, I want to find Angelica Barrington I know she works in the company as a secretary. You’re a secretary, so you must know who she works for.”

I smile wide as a Cheshire cat this fucker thinks I’m a worthless secretary. That’s amusing just thinking I would pass as a secretary. I can’t stop smiling like a maniac, and I take the sign on the desk and lift it up so he can see. Clearly, he didn’t look at the name of the desk.

“Oh, s**t, I didn’t see it said Angelica Barrington. Who are you to be sitting at her desk?”

“I am Mr. Wheeler, the CIO; I’m waiting for Angelica to talk to her, but right now, she’s with Mr. Matthews in his office.”

The fucker doesn’t say a word. He just walked up the double doors to Mr. Matthew's office and yanked them open. That man will get into trouble walking into that office like it was his. That stupid young man. Nathan Matthews is known to be levelheaded, but this should push his buttons in all the wrong ways. I hear Mr. Matthews's booming voice and decide to go to my office to snoop on them. After all, I knew the codes for all the surveillance cameras, but there were no cameras in Nathan's office. I remedy that after Angelica’s first day; I want to always have my eyes on her.

I hurriedly enter my office and rush to my computer to start the surveillance application; I type in the code for the camera I put up in Nathan’s office. I have the application on my phone, but I don’t want to risk anyone seeing me watching the surveillance cameras. I sit at the computer just as I get pictures and sound. Damn, that look on her face; she f*****g hates Mr. Sullivan. I heard the venom in Angelica’s words as she spoke to Brian Sullivan. It makes me feel at ease; I can breathe. I was worried I had to worry about him as a competition, but I clearly see he is not. Angelica hates his guts. Oh goddamn, he cheated and threw her out for a w***e. Clear as morning, he didn’t see what he had. No worries, she’s going to be mine. I will snatch her from all other men, especially my boss and his son. I kept watching after Nathan left the room. Angelica’s words drip of venom. She didn’t stay long in the room, and I pulled up the camera at her desk. I split the screen and pull up Dominic’s office; it’s where Nathan said he would go. Sure enough, there the Matthews men are. So damn dull; they only talk business. I thought I got a good show of them arguing about the woman we all want. It makes me smile. Either they don’t talk about it at work or don’t know each other's desires. It doesn’t matter to me because I will see to it that they both lose. It’s nice knowing I only have two men I have to beat for getting Angelica into bed. I can’t be sure, but I think Dominic had his taste of her. Their interaction was a bit off today. I know Dominic, and he f***s them and loses interest, so if it’s true, It’s only Nathan I have to worry about. The gayboy is no competition even thou they live together. And that man Sullivan doesn’t seem to have a chance with how she told him off. Yes, I'm grinning from ear to ear when there is a knock on my office door.

I rumble, “Enter.” I hear my voice is fretful.

When the door opens, there the man himself is, Nathan Matthews. I don’t even like that man; the job is okay. I hate how he easily gets any woman to fall at his feet. Angelica is not going to be one of them. I zoom out and don’t listen much to the man. I heard about half of it, but it was a business account and some issues. I told him I handled that yesterday and offered to double-check, so it’s good if he wishes.

“ No, no that’s not necessary. I wasn’t sure you already tended to that. I know you are usually quick to handle anything that lands on your table. Thank you, Mr. Wheeler.”



Finally, he leaves my office. I watch him on every camera until he’s at Angelica’s desk. The way he looks at her; annoys the s**t out of me. What he is talking to her about is not strange; I know he is annoyingly kind. I groan in annoyance and shut down the computer. I can’t stand to see him with her.
