Chapter 3
Karen woke up the next morning; she looked over at her boss, a small smile made its way to her lips. She brushed his hair back; for once she was enjoying herself. She shivered slightly and pulled the covers tighter around her, she snuggled close to him. She had to get warm, she wrapped her arms around his waist, before noticing that he was shirtless, she pulled away blushing. When did that happen? She thought to herself.
Rufus looked at her, opening his eyes slowly. “Karen, are you alright?”
Karen nodded and brushed his hair back. “I’m fine….” She kissed the corner of his mouth lightly.
He grinned then, brushing her hair back and pulling her close. “You look beautiful this morning.”
She blushed and smiled at him. “We should get up, Rufus.”
“After last night I’m surprised you want to get up…” He teased lightly.
She blushed, her face a dark red. Even though they hadn’t done anything, she was worried as it was about even faking it. She’d stated when they’d gotten here she didn’t feel comfortable doing that in some one else’s house.
Karen stretched and got up to get dressed, Rufus pulled her back in bed. “Not yet, Karen…”
Karen looked at him, she dropped her voice to a whisper. “Boss…” Her voice was soft.
Rufus shook his head. “Not even whispering boss…Karen.” He brushed her hair back.
She was getting in over her head, she knew that right now, and secretly she wondered if he knew it. If he really was pretending, “Rufus,” She stated calmly, trying to remain calm was difficult as it was. “Darling we need to get up so we can go have breakfast, after last night I’m really hungry.”
“I’m hungry…for you…” He pulled her closer and kissed her, she made no move at first to pull away.
She closed her eyes, this could not be happening, she could not be falling in love with her boss. She pulled away before he could go any farther. She looked at him, she smiled kindly.
“Rufus, I need to shower, come with me?” She asked a smile on her face.
He grinned then and helped her get up and they walked into the bathroom. Karen turned on the water, she looked at him, he started to unbutton the buttons on her pajamas.
She grabbed his hands and pushed them away. “Sir,”
He shook his head then. “I thought I told you no sir.” He told her, there was almost an angry glint in his eye.
Karen backed away. “Sir, please remember you are not my husband, you are my boss…” She dropped her voice low. “Don’t let me forget that.”
Rufus looked at her; he sat in one of the chairs. “Karen…”
Karen blinked. “Is something wrong?’’ She’d never seen him act like this before it was odd.
“It’s nothing, take your shower.” Rufus left her in the bathroom.

What was I thinking! He yelled at himself, what was she thinking? What did she think would happen after last night and our faking it? Gosh he hadn’t even really touched her, and yet he wanted to. He’d never felt that way about her before, sure she was a good looking young woman, but…she was his employee.
Breakfast was quiet, even Karen wasn’t talking to him. The sooner the deal was settled the better. Hopefully it would not require another night here, at least not another week. He didn’t know if he could stand it. Even just holding her hand any more was enough to drive him nuts. He shook his head; she was an employee, never get involved with your employees. Once they got back everything would go back to normal, Karen would once again be the Turk she was.
“Rufus, are you alright?” Suddenly a voice broke through his thoughts. He noticed Karen was talking to him.
He smiled at her, and nodded. “Yes, I’m fine, Karen.” He took her hand, entwining their fingers; he felt a sharp spark go through his body.
Karen smiled “You just seemed lost in thought, Kathy was asking if I wanted to take a walk in the garden while you two discussed business; would that be alright?”
He nodded. “Of course, my dear, that would be fine. You don’t have to be with me every second you know.”
She giggled then, of course it was their own little secret, for she was his body guard. First and foremost she was his body guard; he had to keep that in mind.
9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9
Karen smiled. “Your flowers are beautiful, Kathy.” She gently fingered one of the roses, the petals soft against her fingers.
“Thank you, Karen, so did you sleep well last night?” Kathy asked, she clipped a few roses for her flower arrangements in the house.
Karen paused, should she ask the woman, should she tell her the truth? Or would that botch the deal? She wanted to tell some one how she felt, the feelings inside of her was stirring, and they had been stirring for a while.
“…Kathy why was/is our room bugged?” Karen asked suddenly.
‘What?” Kathy blinked, either she was a very good actress or she really didn’t know.
“Rufus and my room were bugged last night while we were at dinner, I want to know why,” Karen stated, she was growing angry.
“I had no idea, Karen, believe me.” Kathy was appalled. “How did you find out?”
“When I went upstairs to get ready for bed, it was under the table by our bedside.” Karen stated, she knew at that moment that Kathy was trust worthy. ‘Kathy, there is something else I should tell you.”
Kathy sat down on the bench and gestured for Karen to sit next to her. Karen sat down and began to tell her everything, including the fact that she was falling in love with her own boss.
