Billionaire Bachelors 4 ; The Billionaire's Marriage Proposal(22)

More dishes were served and it seemed each one was better than the last. By the time dessert was presented her stomach was already filled to the full mark but it was dripping in rich chocolate and she couldn't turn it down. Her sleeping pills were kicking in and she could feel the heaviness of her eyes. She wouldn't last much longer.




 

 

They finished eating and then a warm cup of coffee was placed in front of her. It smelled delicious and she realized there must be a shot of rum in it. It tasted even better than it smelled. She finished the cup and laid her head against the seat. She wasn't going to last very long, she thought happily.

"We should get some work done before we turn in for the night," Trenton said, looking down at his laptop. She mumbled something and then let the fog drift over her and was soon sound asleep, sitting straight up in the chair.

Trenton looked over and realized Jennifer was out and not just napping, but really out. Hell, he most likely wouldn't have been able to get any work done, anyway, as he was too anxious for the trip to really get started. He had a ton of work to finish, but he also planned on a lot of romance. He wanted her in his bed nightly, and he knew he was going to have to woo her.

The flight attendant came back and he dismissed her for the evening, put his lap top away, and bent down and lifted Jennifer into his arms. She immediately snuggled into him, making his body grow hard and his lips relax into a smile.

He didn't think it was going to be difficult seducing his sexy assistant. He carried her back to his room and laid her on the bed. He removed her shoes and pants and left the rest of her clothes in place. He was certainly not going to violate her in her sleep.

After tucking her into the large bed, he decided it was too early for him to sleep, so he went back out into the main cabin and worked on some papers for a few hours. When his mind kept drifting back to Jennifer, in his bed, he finally gave up and joined her.

He laid there for a couple of hours, with her body pressed against him, simply enjoying the feel of her in his arms. He could get used to her sharing his bed. That was the last thought he had before sleep finally overtook him.

Trenton woke up with Jennifer pressed tightly against him and it was incredibly hard to extract himself from her warm body. He was aching and hard and wanted nothing more than to flip her over and plunge within her inviting heat, but even though he knew how great it would be, the consequences weren't worth it.

He wanted her hot and willing, and he wanted her aware. He walked out to the main cabin and tried to do some work but gave up after re-reading the same line for the tenth time. He wasn't happy this one woman had so much control over his emotions and his body. It made him feel weak and no woman should ever have that much control.

He knew the minute she entered the cabin, even though his head was leaned back against the seat and his eyes were shut. He could not only smell her aroma, which would stay with him the rest of his life, but he could feel her.

"How did I get back there?" she asked, as she took her seat across from him. 

"I carried you, you were out cold," he replied without looking up.

"Oh, uh, thanks," she mumbled. The flight attendant walked in, breaking up the awkward silence.

"Would you both like some breakfast?" she asked.

"That would be great," Trenton said. Jennifer was starving and glad he'd said yes.

"What would you like to drink?"

"I would love some coffee, extra sweet and also a big glass of milk," Jennifer said.

"Black coffee," Trenton added and then the flight attendant left to get their orders. She returned quickly with their drinks and some pastries, which Jennifer gulped down. Trenton watched her with a smile on his face.

"We have a few days before the meetings will start. We purchased some land over there about a year ago and are developing a new resort. Everything was fine until about a week ago, when some companies threw a few last minute wrenches in the works, trying to say there are environmental factors to consider. We did our research long before we ever bought the land and it's all smoke screens from people trying to get more money out of us. This could take a while, but I have a feeling it will be solved quickly," Trenton informed her.

Jennifer felt a shudder travel down her spine at the look in his eyes. She wouldn't want to be his enemy, or on the wrong side of a business deal with him. He hadn't become the corporate shark he was by backing down. She didn't know what to say, as she didn't even really know how she'd gotten the job in the first place. She was greatly lacking in the coldness factor required for her type of position. She couldn't bluff her way out of anything - she'd end up losing a company millions by caving in on issues.
