Rules of Engagement
1. Be available every Friday evening to Saturday morning.
2. Be ready. (Groomed to my standards.)
3. You're not to discuss this arrangement or details of this contract with anyone. 
4. This is not a relationship, there will be no such expectations.
5. Do not fall in love. This is grounds for dismissal...
The rules of the contract are very clear. They are in place for a reason. So why does Evelyn think she can just walk out on him? Why does she think she can keep testing and pushing his limits? It's not over until he says it is. Perhaps it's time he showed her what it means to be owned by Roman Ashfield.

The CEO's dirty little secret

　　Roman downed another shot of whiskey as he tried to wash down what he was feeling.


　　He had expected anger. He'd expected fireworks. But for Evelyn to be so scared that she didn't even want him to touch her? It never even crossed his mind.


　　Everyone who did business with him did so with a healthy amount of fear. Even the women who threw themselves at him approached him with caution. He never apologised for the things he had to do to stay ahead.


　　But Evelyn had never looked at him like that, not even once. It was probably the reason he had approached her with the contract to start with.


　　He had seen her going into an interview with HR, seen the huge smile on her face as she had looked around his building. That was what had made him walk into the interview room as she had been finishing up.
