Deceiving My Bully Stepbrother

(Theo)

Welp, this s**t is becoming a lot harder than I anticipated..and I mean harder in every damn sense of It might've been a mistake to make Ava my assistant now that I think about it..seeing her all day long. I don't know how it happened so fast..I mean, one minute I was in control and had a grasp on all emot Seeing Caspian King put a lot of s**t into perspective for me. Don't get me wrong..I was 90% of the way didn't corrupt my sweet innocent Ava. She could've developed a tattoo fetish or some s**t.

Or worse..a hockey player fetish..so honestly, I am thankful for Caspian and him being the biggest dou that bad looking..I honestly expected fewer teeth..but other than that, he is a total prick. "Theo, are yo "Of course, I was just going over a few things." I lied.. Yeah..I wasn't listening.

It's hard to do anything when I know Ava is somewhere in this building strutting around in her pink lit "We are one week away from the biggest event of the year. This needs to go over flawlessly..we are already I couldn't help but grit my teeth, hearing my dad getting on my a*s was not how I wanted my day to go Yeah..when he found out about it..he wasn't too f*****g pleased.. "Yes, Sir."

Was all I could muster and then the meeting went on like normal.

After finalizing the seating arrangements and going over the guest list, I was about to scan the schools "Come in." I grumbled, thinking it was Val.

"Is this a bad time?" Ava suddenly asked, making me set my papers down as her angelic voice trickled "Well, I thought maybe you could use something to eat. So I brought you this." She said, pulling out a Why was she being so cute all of a sudden? I swear she was trying to avoid me for most of the day..eve "Are you going to eat with me?" I asked curiously, watching as she walked toward my desk. Her movem What I wouldn't give to be that sack..or better yet..to have my d**k be that sack.

I asked her to do something for me she would race out of here, trying not to linger for too long.

ere always so smooth and elegant..and the way her hand gripped that paper sack. f**k me..

Okay..that was too far..I know..but I'm having withdrawals here. You would think this morning would've somehow helped my situation and given me some type of relief..nope..my balls are bluer than ever.

Even in the past, it's never been like this..granted I did have my subs who I could call whenever I needed to release some stress..but I never wanted someone so badly in my life. No..it goes beyond that..I don't even want Ava anymore..I f*****g need her..crave her..desire her in every f*****g way possible.

And that is why I can't even hold a conversation without this woman popping into my mind.

"I don't want to distract you..you seem very busy Mr. Hart. Besides..I'm quite busy myself." Ava suddenly added, her soft voice oozing seduction as I swallowed hard, trying not to leap across this damn desk and maul the woman.

I can't give in first..I won't..she has to be the one to ask for this.

"What did you bring me?" I asked, changing the subject to something more tame.

"A sandwich from that place across the street. I know it's not what you're used to, considering Val probably brings you a freaking steak every day or something." She scoffed, making humor spark inside of me as I saw Ava's nose scrunch up in distaste when she said Val's name. Wait..was my little vixen jealous?!

"Usually.." I quipped, going to look down at the paper in front of me now as I fought the urge to smile.

"Wait..really? She does?!" Ava stepped forward as I nodded my head, liking this sudden turn of events as I tried to act disinterested now.

"Yes..you can just set it there if you have other things to do."

I watched as she stared down at my desk, her hand gripping the bag tighter as she suddenly glanced behind her before choosing to sit.

"I have a few minutes I guess." She rushed out, and I wondered for a moment what brought this on. She didn't seem concerned about Val earlier..not that I was aware of anyway.

"How is your first day back going?" I asked, trying to make small talk as my eyes remained glued to her plump pink lips...every word she said was like sweet honey..and the way her mouth moved made me think all types of sinful thoughts I was trying to stay away from. So I focused on her hands now instead...which wasn't any better truthfully.

"It's been okay..still kind of on the fence about my boss though..he seems kind of like a jerk." She whispered, making my gaze snap to hers.

Fuck..is she flirting with me right now? That's what this is right?

"Oh yeah? Do you need me to have a word with him?" I teased, making her smile as she took out the sandwiches she bought for us.

"I think I can handle him on my own. I hear he might have a thing for blondes." She added playfully, making me shake my head no.

"Not blondes."

Ava pouted.

"Just you."

I added before grabbing the sandwich and taking a big bite out of it. I swear I have never seen her cheeks burn more red than right at that moment.

"I don't know how you can just say stuff like that.." She grumbled, seeming flustered now as she grabbed her sandwich, stuffing her mouth full.

"Because it's easy when it comes to you. You are the only one who has ever brought this side out of me." I said much more softly, my arm reaching forward as I leaned across my desk, making Ava freeze as I swiped a blob of mayo away from the corner of her mouth with a napkin.

"The only one?" She whispered softly, her hand darting up as she suddenly wrapped her fingers around my wrist as I began to pull my arm back, making me drop the napkin.

"Yes, Ava. I thought you realized that already." I said honestly, seeing her head lean forward now as what she did next completely shocked me.

I watched her hand slide up, turning my wrist slowly before she placed my palm flat against her cheek. Her eyes fluttered closed as she let out a shuddering breath before leaning against me deeper.

"I just needed to hear you say it." She confessed, her hand dropping from mine as I started to move my palm up, burying my fingertip into her luscious blonde hair.

I rose onto my feet, leaning closer to her from across the desk as I studied her face carefully.

"What is this about? What happened Kitten?" I asked her softly, my face inching down to hers until I was hovering just above her lips.

"It's nothing..don't worry about it.." She muttered, tilting her head back as her warm sweet breath fanned against my jaw. "Kiss me, Theo.."

Her words caused my stomach to flip, my mouth growing dry for a second as I swallowed hard..trying to control myself. "Tell me and then I will." I responded, hating the fact that I didn't just do it when she asked..because f**k did I want to...more than anything. "Theo.." She whined, her beautiful lips tilting into a frown.

"Tell me and then I will kiss you as many times as you like."

She hesitated for a moment before her eyes fluttered open as she looked at me nervously now.

"Just...promise you won't react.."

React? What does that even mean? React how?

Oh god..I didn't like this already.

"Ava.." Okay, this was serious now.

"Fine..well..um..your secretary..Val..she just said some..things."

Yep..I was going to react..now I get it.

"Things..what things?"

"Just..uhh..do I seriously have to tell you?" She groaned, making me look down at her with the sternest look.

"Fine...she said that you and your last girlfriend..sub..whatever she was had gotten really serious and that you wanted to make her jealous at the event next week."

For f***s sake..seriously? I am going to kill Val..
