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

　　It fucking killed him to walk out of that restaurant and leave the one thing he wanted with every fibre of his being.


　　Especially knowing that she still believed every word that she had said on their last weekend together. He could tell. She'd walked around the restaurant like a jumpy, terrified little rabbit the whole time he'd been there that he was starting to doubt that he could pull this off.


　　Evelyn didn't want to be in the same room as him, she wouldn't welcome his touch either.


　　Did the thought of him touching her still make her skin crawl? Had she not missed him? Didn't she see him in her dreams as he did?


　　Did she still think he had women tucked away all over the world waiting for him in their beds? Her words still hit him pretty hard even after all these months. Trust had been very important in their arrangement, it had been the biggest reason they had been able to respond to each other so explosively.
