My Fierce Enemy

I shouldn’t have slept with Cassidy James She was an employee and a liar She disappeared on me two years ago But suddenly she’s back, asking for her old job Unrepentant, but sexy as ever. “Listen, Liam,” she said. “If I don’t have a shot at this job, fine, but stop wasting my time because I left you with blue balls.” I raised my eyebrows, annoyed and irritatingly intrigued. She was working hard to keep me from finding out why she had left, but she was here in my office, trying to work for me again. I couldn’t figure it out. I stared at her, the moment stretching out uncomfortably, her last words hanging between us. Slowly, the bravado seeped out of her, but she didn’t look away.
