His Little Pet

Well this is COMPLETELY unexpected. Why is he personally calling me so late? How did he even get my number? I was expecting Lilith to be on the other line, not Mr. Li.

"Mr. Li.. I'm sorry I thought it was going to be Lilith on the other line. It's quite late, is there anything wrong? What can I do for you?"

"Miss Lin? Is she alright, did something happen to her?" he asks with genuine concern in his voice.

"No no, everything is fine, she just went off with someone from the club. She can be quite reckless at times, so I tend to worry."

"Mm, I see. As long as everything is alright. Everything's fine here, I was just calling to see if you'd be able to meet me at the office. I had a few things I wanted to go over and discuss with you. I didn't realize it was this late already. I suppose it can wait until tomorrow then." I'm not certain, but I think I heard a bit of disappointment in his voice as he said the last part.

"Well, it must be important if you're needing me this late. I can come by now, it's no problem. I was actually just heading home, so I can stop by on my way."

"Oh good, I'll be in my office then. See you soon, Kätzchen."

I stare at my phone for a minute, letting myself take in what just happened. I'm so confused, and kind of nervous about what it is he wants to discuss this late. Why couldn't he talk about it over the phone, why did it have to be in person? At his office of all places. Just then my phone dings, taking me out of my thoughts.

Lilith

OMG.

MA.S.SIVE 🍆 alert!

I think I have found the one for me.

Woman, you've had me worried!

You okay?

Let me know if you need me.

Oh I'll be more than okay tonight once we get started

👉👌 👅 🍆💦

"You are too much, Lil. What am I going to do with you?" I say as I put my phone down, shaking me head at her as if she can see and hear me. I turn the key in the ignition until I hear the purr of the engine, then start heading towards Li Enterprise.

Mr. Li

I sit in the lounge area of the club, my drink in hand, trying to drone out the obnoxious sounds of the business clients from the Ota Deal. They eagerly signed off on the deal that Miss Reins made without a second thought, and insisted on taking me out to celebrate. I tried to weezle out of it, but they wouldn't take no for an answer. So here I am, in this ridiculous club, surrounded by obnoxiously drunk and high club-goers. Along with the Ota brothers, who are trying to get a hold of every fine p.u.s.s.y that walks by them.

"Hey Aushi, check out that fine piece of a.s.s over at the bar." Darshan says to his brother, pointing at the bar a few feet away from us. I glance in the direction he's pointing, and to my surprise, I see Miss Reins sitting there. Alone. I do a double take to make sure my mind isn't playing tricks on me, but no, she's really there.

"I bet you my entire share on this deal that you can't get that p.u.s.s.y into your bed" Darshan mockingly says to his brother.

"Oh you're so on brother. I'm looking forward to all that extra money, just remember, no going back on your word now."

Before I can even register all of this, Aushi is already at her side extending a hand to her. I can feel my entire body turn to fire, a rage building inside that I haven't felt in three years. Not since the incident with Airi.. Why am I getting so angry about this? It's not like she's my woman, so why should I care? I should just shake it off and let it go. But I can't.. why? What does this woman have that seems to affect me so much?

I watch Aushi closely, but Miss Reins even closer. What kind of response will she give him? She doesn't seem like the type to throw herself at every guy who tries to suduce her. She actually seems reluctant to engage with him? I can't help but smile at her reluctance towards him. She gets up to leave, but he stops her.

"What is she doing now.." I question.

"You say something Romes?" I peel my gaze from Miss Reins and look at Darshan.

"Huh? No, I didn't say anything."

But when I look back, she's gone. And Aushi is walking back towards us. Well this is a good sign, right?

"Well well, looks like my little bro failed AGAIN to get into a girl's pants." Darshan says as he roars with laughter.

"Now now, don't jump to conclusions brother. I managed to get a phone number, you never said WHEN I had to get into her pants." He gets a cheeky grin and shows us the number written across his palm. I feel the rage start to boil inside me again.

"Well, I think I'm going to call it. It was nice catching up with you guys, and I'm glad everything went well with our deal. But I'm gonna head out, I have some things I need to take care of."

"Oh come on Romes, have a little fun! All you've been doing these past few years if burring yourself in work. When was the last time you even got laid man?"

"I appreciate the effort, but I do things my way. And also, that is none of your concern actually" I chuckle in response. They both stare at each other and burst into laughter.

"Man, I knew it had to have been awhile, but I think this is more serious than we thought" Darshan says as Aushi nods in agreement.

"Don't worry old friend, we'll help you get the best p.u.s.s.y in town. At a small price of course." I just roll my eyes at them and turn to leave.

"I don't need any help in that department, especially not your help. Who knows what I'll end up coming out with" I shot back.

"Shit, that's harsh man. We'll catch you later then, tell your new girl she did a fine job on that deal. We look forward to meeting her and running more deals through her as well." If only they knew..

The Ota brothers can be very lude and obnoxious, but it's all in good fun. They live for the moment, and don't think twice about it. I've known them for years, and they've always been a good go to client. They've been by my side since the start of my business, and have helped with more than I could have ever asked. But I can only deal with them in small doses, and tonight was more than I could handle.

I quickly make my way out of the club and start dialing the number from Aushi's hand, hoping I remembered it correctly. I barely get one full ring in before the other end picks up, and I can hear her sweet innocent voice. She instantly spits out a bunch of concerned sentences.

"Miss Reins, I can assure you I'm quite alright. No need to worry Mein süßes Kätzchen." I didn't realize how much I needed to hear her voice until that very moment...

~~~~~

I anxiously wait in my office for her to arrive, pulling out some of the deals she's worked on earlier this week as the excuse to have her come in. What if she mentions about how it could have waited until tomorrow when she came in..? Arg! why am I feeling so nervous all of a sudden? Should I just call back and tell her not to come? I grab my drink and finish off my fourth glass of bourbon since returning to my office. As I reach for my phone to call her, I hear a voice at my door.

"Mr Li? You in here?" She cracks the door to my office and slowly steps inside. I quickly stand up, making my way over to her through the dimly lit room.

"Roman, actually. No need to be so formal after work hours." I hand her a glass of bourbon and return to my desk.

"But what about the business policy, no use of first names in the building, only surnames?" She asks, sounding genuinely caught off guard.

"You do remember who created that policy, don't you Zylith? I'm sure he wouldn't mind at this time. It's alright if I call you Zylith, yes?"

"Well that is my name, and you are the big boss of this company. I don't believe I have any say against your calls, now do I?" She sure does have quite a sarcastic nonchalant attitude at times, now doesn't she?

"You would be correct. You may have a seat."

I gesture to the chair across from me and she steps closer, into the light, and takes a seat. I saw her at the club, but this is the first time I actually noticed what she had been wearing. A very s.e.xy, sleek strapless black dress that only made it half way down her t.h.i.g.hs, rising up a couple more inches as she took a seat. It fit her body so well, showing off every s.e.xy curve.

"What was it that you wanted to go over with me, Mr. L- I mean Roman?" she asks as she takes a drink from her glass.

I start going over some of the files with her, going into detail about a few things, just trying to extend her time here.

"If you don't mind me asking, and I don't mean to sound blunt, but did this really need to be gone over tonight?" She caught me off guard, and I didn't know how to respond.

"Huh, well.." She just stares at me with a look of confusion, I need to think quick on this one..

"Actually, there is something else. Would you be willing to join me this Friday on a business trip to meet the new clients of one of the deals you've worked on recently?"

Zylith

A BUSINESS TRIP? WITH MR. LI?! Is he being serious right now?! I don't think I heard him correctly...

"You want me to go with you, this Friday, on a business trip to meet potential clients?" I ask, just to make sure I wasn't going crazy.

"Yes, I believe it would be a great opportunity for you if you still plan on taking this position. It would also be a great idea for the clients to meet the brains behind the deal, in my opinion."

I can't believe I'm hearing this right now. I can't believe he's being serious! My mind starts running wild with excitement, curiosity, and a bit of nervousness. I have so many questions..

"Will anyone else be attending? Is it just going to be a day trip? Should I pack a bag? I've never gone on a business trip before, I don't know how this works.." I start rambling on and he just laughs.

"Mein süßes Kätzchen, there would be no need to worry. I would have my men take care of everything. It would just be you and I, and it would be a weekend trip. We would leave Friday morning, and return Sunday evening. The hotel and other expenses will all be paid for, you would just need to attend the meeting."

"A weekend trip? Will there be multiple meetings throughout the time we're there?"

"No no, just one meeting on Friday."

Okay, now I'm really confused. Why would it take a whole weekend trip just to attend one meeting the first day we're there? It was like he had read my mind, because before I knew it, I had gotten a reply to the question I thought I had only asked myself..

"I like to make the most out of the trips I take for business. Business first, then p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e. It's nice to get away from the office sometimes and not have to worry about work. So, what do you say Zylith?"

I sit there in silece for a few minutes, thinking everything over. I think of Lilith, and how she would literally MAKE me do this, and how she would never let it go if I declined. Well, I guess I have my answer then..

"Okay."

"Okay? So you'll be willing to join me then?" he asks, letting a smile creep over his face. His very gorgeous face..

"I don't see any harm in attending, so yes. I'll join you."

He gets up from his seat at the desk, pours himself and I aother glass, and makes his way over to one of the suede oval chairs in the middle of the room. He gestures for me to join him, so I sit opposite him in the other chair.

"I'm glad you agreed, I'll have a driver pick you up around 6 A.M." We sit in silence for a moment before he speaks again.

"That's quite the attire to be wearing at this time on a Monday night. Mind if I ask what it was you were doing before I called?"

I look down at the outfit Lilith had picked out for me to wear, and my cheeks instantly turn to fire. How embarrassing!

"Oh, well.. actually Lilith dragged me out to the club, saying I needed to loosen up a little. She picked the outfit. And then she ditched me for some guy, I went to leave, and that's when I got your call. So, here I am."

His gaze bore into me, like he was looking into my soul. I nervously took a drink from my glass.

"I see" he says as he takes a drink from his own glass.

"And how was your time there? Being modest, I feel as though you'd get the attention of a lot men in that outfit." He looks me up and down, and I feel my cheeks go again.

"I actually left before they got the chance I guess. With the exception of one, who stopped me as I was about to leave. I wasn't interested, but he was too polite, and my guilt wouldn't let me turn him away so easily without any valid reason.. I gave him my number to have coffee sometime, but I don't plan on taking it any further than that if I'm honest."

"You must be a tough one to please, Kätzchen."

"I've just devoted my time to work, haven't been bothered to step into the dating game. I guess I'm just waiting for the right guy."

He gets up to pour himself another glass, drinks it all in one go and sets it down on his desk. Then he walks over behind my chair, leans down by my ear and whispers.

"And tell me Zylith, what would make someone 'the right guy for you?" he grabs the sides of the chair and spins it around to face him, our faces only inches apart.

"I.. I'm not sure. I just hoped I'd know when he came along" I barely manage to spit out. Him being this close is making me really nervous. He extends his hand and brushes the stray stands of hair off my shoulder, then lightly c.a.r.e.s.ses my collar bone, from one side to the other. I let out a small gasp, and feel sparks of electricity flow through my entire body at his touch.

"Ich könnte dir diese Klamotten vom Leib reißen und dich hierher bringen, Kätzchen. Aber jetzt ist nicht der richtige Zeitpunkt."
