Whirlwind of emotions

As soon as Laura stepped out of her room, I froze. My breath hitched, and for a split second, I forgot how to function. She looked absolutely stunning, no, that wasn't even the right word. Drop-dead gorgeous. The body-con dress hugged every inch of her body, accentuating her curves in a way that made my mouth dry. Her legs seemed endless, and the bright red lipstick on her full lips was doing things to me that I had no right feeling.

This was Laura, my assistant. The same Laura I'd just tried to convince myself I couldn't want, couldn't be with. Yet, here she was, standing before me like a vision, a siren sent to drive me out of my damn mind.
