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

　　"Sir, Mr. Lloyd is still waiting in the conference room."


　　Roman looked away from the report on his desk to see his timid personal assistant, Penny, at his door. He had no idea how she hadn't quit yet. It had been a couple of months of him acting like a bastard for no reason so she was well within her rights.


　　He looked down at the report again.


　　"Tell him to take over the meeting. I have something I have to do."


　　John was the Chief Operating Officer and had more than earned his salary lately. He'd kept Ashfield Construction going.


　　"I'll call his assistant now," she said as she walked back out of his office and closed the door.


　　He was supposed to be finalising the downfall of Allan Bains but here he was stalking Evelyn instead. It was all he had done lately. Poured over the reports of her whereabouts. Her new employment. Her daily routines. Her pictures. She was smiling in all of them.
