Naughty Ceo’s Secret
Chapter 14

W-w-w-w-what..?

He...

No..

What?

"Uhm." I trailed off.

What the hell am I supposed to say to that? What does Kenzo even mean by that? Did he really only promote me to sleep with me? Wait, doesn't he have a girlfriend? "What's wrong kitten? Cat got your tongue?" Kenzo teased me.

"I... I'm confused." I said honestly

"Did you want me to explain just what I mean about having your panties all over my office?" He teased further.

Oh damn. Is it hot in here? I think we should open a window or something.

"N-no." I stuttered. "D-don't you have a girlfriend?" I asked.

Kenzo frowned at me.

"A girlfriend?" He asked.

"Yeah.. Akane." I said softly.

Kenzo let go of my face to laugh at me. Like really laugh. I thought that seeing him happy like that would be a sight to behold. I mean, it is, but now I'm only irritated

I scowled at him as I crossed my arms over my chest.

"What the hell is so funny?" I asked him.

"You." Kenzo replied though his laughter.

"Kay." I replied snidely.

"Opal, Akane is not my girlfriend." He told me.

"She's not?" I asked.

"No." Kenzo said as his laughter started to die down.

Maybe he does look extra handsome with that smile on his face.

"You two just seem so... close, friendly." I said. "Sorry to assume, that was wrong of me." I apologized.

"That's because she's my sister." Kenzo stated. "She's married, so we don't share the same last name. Akane is starting her own business, and wanted advice. We've been meeting once a week so that I can help her." He told me.

I nearly choked on air. My eyes went slightly wide as I stared at Kenzo. Who looks like he is about to burst out in more laughter.

I even had a suspicion that they were related. Why would I just jump to them being together like that? I know what it's like to have assumptions made about you, I shouldn't have jumped to conclusions like that.

I cleared my throat.

"That makes sense." I said as my face heated. "I'm sorry that I assumed you were romantically together. Lord knows I'd be grossed out if someone said that about me and my brother." I said with a forced laugh. Kenzo just looked at me like he's inspecting me again. All remains of his outburst are gone. Damn, I really liked that laugh. Even if I was slightly annoyed for a moment.

"Do you want to know what my romantic status is?" He asked abruptly.

My eyes went wide as my face heated again.

"Uhm, !.. Uh, that isn't necessary sir." I said awkwardly.

Boy do I really want to know though. Like bad.

Embarrassingly bad. What is this man doing to me? I don't think I have ever been this back and fourth with myself about anyone in my life.

I've always understood that I wasn't everyone's type. I never overstepped those boundaries. If I was interested in someone, and they didn't feel the same, I never gave them a second thought. Kenzo is different.

I can't tell if Kenzo has an interest in me, or if he's just teasing me. What's worse is.. I want him to. To be doing either. I want him to tease me more, and I want him to have an interest in me.

Kenzo is my boss though. I shouldn't be having those kinds of thoughts about my boss. If either of us ever acted on them. I would be making all of those rumors true..

"Well, I'm single." Kenzo stated breaking my inner turmoil.

That simple statement makes me so happy. I don't want it to, but I can't help it. A small smile touched my lips. At least I don't have to feel bad for all my dirty thoughts about Kenzo.

"Okay." Was all I said.

Kenzo leaned in closer to me again. He didn't grab my chin this time though. Still, he's so close that I can feel the heat coming from his body.

"And what about you Opal?" Kenzo asked.

"Me?" I asked lamely.

It's like those intense black eyes are holding me captive.

"Yes. Are you a single women Opal?" He asked.

I can only stare at him. It's like I'm incapable of moving at all right now. How is he able to look so calm, but have this much intensity in his eyes? "Answer me." Kenzo ordered.

"Yes." I instantly replied

Kenzo gave me a pleased smile. My face heated as my core throbbed. What the hell is going on with my body? Is this because all of my ex's are douches? I don't think any of them ever called me a good girl, or gave me such a sexy pleased look. "That's good." He said.

It is?

"Uhh.. I guess.

" I replied

Kenzo is still so close to me. His cologne smells amazing. I bet it's expensive. Those deep black eyes are still on me as well.

"Hi-is it h-hot in here t-to you?" I asked lamely.

A wide smile spread across Kenzo's face.

"Ya know what, I think it is a little warm in here." He said.

Kenzo leaned back in his chair. He kept his eyes on me as he loosened his tie. Then he slipped it over his head, and tossed it on his desk. My eyes watched his fingers as he started to undo the buttons of his shirt. Is he.. going to get naked?

My cheeks flamed, but I can't take my eyes off of him.

"Sorry Opal, but there are no openable windows in here. If you're too warm, you might have to take off some of your clothes too." He said

Take of.. some of my clothes? Should I? I shouldn't right? I should. definitely stop watching Kenzo undress. That's what I should do.

Kenzo unbuttoned his entire shirt, and slipped it off of his shoulders. He gently lay it on top of his desk. Thank god he has a tank top on under it. I think I might have died right here if he were completely bare My eyes wandered over Kenzo's broad chest, and bare arms. He has tattoos. I had no idea. A whole chest piece that I can see around his tank top. It spreads over the tops of his shoulders too.

The tattoo is a bunch of flowers, mostly roses. I think there is a dragon in the middle of his chest, but I'm not sure with his tank top on. It looks absolutely stunning.

"Do you want to see the whole thing?" Kenzo asked.

My eyes flickered to his. Before I could stop myself, I'm nodding. I probably shouldn't have done that, but I'm curious.

Kenzo stood up, and pulled the tank top over his head. I stood to my feet to inspect his tattoo. Just like I though, the flowers all circle a dragon.

"It's beautiful." I said softly.

My fingers reached out to trace the dragon.

"I've always loved tattoos. Always wanted a few, but I never did it." I mumbled as I continued to trace the artwork.

"Why not?" Kenzo asked

"My mom didn't approve. Neither did my ex. So, I never got any. My little brother wants to be a tattoo artist though. I told him that I would let him put as many on me as he wants if he really does it." I said. "Bribing him to follow his dreams?" Kenzo asked with a small laugh.

I shook my head

"Our mother will never allow him to chose that lifestyle. I can just imagine the look of pure disgust on her face when he finally tells her. I just hope he does what he wants, and not what she wants." I said.

I'm still staring at Kenzo's tattoo as my fingers lightly trace the different flowers. Kenzo reached down to grip my chin softly. He tilted my head up until my eyes met his.

My face heated instantly when I realized how close we are.

I didn't even realize what exactly I was doing. I got this close, and put my hands all over Kenzo. My boss..

I gulped, and tried to pull my hand away. Kenzo slapped his much larger hand over mine, keeping it pinned to his chest.

His grip on my chin tighten slightly. As if to tell me not to move.

So I didn't. I stayed frozen on spot. My entire body is buzzing. Just waiting to see what Kenzo does next.

"You care a lot about the people around you." He stated.

I'm not sure if he wants me to answer, so I didn't.

"You are such a beauty Opal." He told me.

My blush deepened

Kenzo leaned in closer to me, and I held my breath.

Is he going to kiss me? I shouldn't let this happen. I want it to happen though. Why shouldn't I allow this again?

Oh yeah, because Kenzo is my boss. I don't want to give any truth to those rumors. He already thinks the rumors about me are true as it is. That's the only reason he wants me to be his secretary. Because he thinks Im easy.

I pulled away from Kenzo completely just before his lips were about to touch mine. I scrambled out of his hold, and turned around. My heart is beating so fast I think it might beat right out of my chest.

"H-h-have to go." I stuttered as I gathered up all of my things. "Th-thank you Mr. S-Suzuki. S-see you tomorrow."

I rushed out of Kenzo's office like my ass is lit on fire. I didn't stop rushing as I left the building. Not even when David told me to have a good night. I rushed all the way home with one question on my mind. What the f**k am I supposed to do now?
