Two years earlier... I was so pissed off that I hadn't stopped grumbling since my friend and her hot boyfriend left almost an hour ago. I still hadn't found the error that the control freak had mentioned in the physical report to Anabel. BenĂcio has always been a huge unknown for my mood. I admired him for his intelligence, frmness and seriousness, the self-confdence overfowed from the man, who was also sexy and engaging. His physical characteristics were an important factor to be considered, that was a fact. His beauty was compared to a Greek god, imposing, symmetrical, with all the attributes favorable to the desire of whoever looked at it, at least those that were visible to the eyes. Would it be too much for me to ask Anabel if she had ever seen her brother naked? He would be. Defnitely. On the other hand, the feelings he aroused in me was irritation. That damn rift between us, the veiled confict, the need to provoke and be provoked. We could never leave any meeting, no matter how informal, without a sarcastic nudge. After I joined the company I had learned to control myself, but it was still difcult to stay on track. He was the president and I was the intern. He was my best friend's brother, which made every thought I had about him - involuntary, by the way - a crime in the "best friends forever" code. I don't even want to think what Anabel would do if she knew that I dream of licking every inch of BenĂcio's skin. - It ended? - I jumped in my chair when I looked at the door. - What a fright! - I said, placing my hand on my chest and looking at the image of BenĂcio lined up and serious, close to the landmark. - She must be too distracted. Perhaps this is the reason for errors in the documents. - That damn sarcastic tone that always irritated me. - I've been reviewing this damn report for an hour and there is no discrepancy. - I got up with the stack of paper in my hands and threw it on the table, exasperated. - If you were more professional, Maria EugĂȘnia, you would have paid attention to the details, but instead you prefer to throw a tantrum over an identifed error. I closed our distance in three steps, I stopped so close to him that I felt the heat emanate from his body and, unfortunately, that wonderful smell of his very expensive cologne, mixed with his particular essence invaded my sense of smell. It was rubbish to be attracted to the man who had the gift of destroying the line of balance that I tried to cultivate at all costs when he was around. - I. No.

it was his most notable characteristic, which never made me think about the softness I found now. It was a pleasant surprise. BenĂcio took some time, I think out of astonishment, before he took any action. His hands
circled my waist and our bodies came together completely with the pull he gave. I moaned and he mumbled something that I didn't understand, but I didn't have time to pay attention as his tongue invaded my mouth demanding attention. We were a slippery tangle of desire, consuming ourselves in each intertwine, sucking as
much as we could from the madness we were experiencing. It was so good. At the same time that I felt my body awaken and my mind numb, a balm settled in my chest, as if something that was missing had finally.
found its place. A mix of despair and warmth at the same time. Which helped to make me even more confused. His hand went down to my ass, a frm squeeze and I was pushed to the table, where BenĂcio broke
the kiss to place me on it, sitting. His eyes stared into mine, I felt clumsy and I saw in his iris the same misty
lust that kept reason away from actions. It was a path of no return, I knew it, yet I threw myself into it without.
any reservations. -Call Bel and let her know you're going out with your friends - he determined so vehemently that I couldn't argue. He reached for my cell phone that was on my desk and handed it to me. His
eyes didn't have their usual clarity. They were dark, like ink, flled with a shrewd energy. - Hello. - Friend. I'm.
leaving the company now, I'm going to a little bar with some friends - I deliberately lied with my eyes fxed on
BenĂcio. - Ah... Okay. Is everything okay? Did everything go well with BenĂcio? - Yes. It did. I need to hang up.
Bel - I ended the call due to lack of words. I wasn't used to lying, especially to my best friend and, on top of that, it was difcult for me to think anything beyond the devouring gaze of my boss, her brother. BenĂcio took.
out the cell phone he was holding, the back of his hand passed over my cheek and I felt my skin heat up under his touch. - You awakened something inappropriate, Maria EugĂȘnia. - MagĂȘ. I hate my name. - Should not. It
suits you. - It's old-fashioned. - It's imposing. We looked at each other for too long, BenĂcio scanned my face.
with so much attention, his thumb hovered over my lips and he bit his. - I want to taste you. For today. Today
only, Maria EugĂȘnia. I don't think for two seconds about the answer. - Okay. Just for today. I answered the second longest phone call of my exhausting day. It was the head of the tax department making.
excuses for the discrepant error in the reports presented a few days ago. I was the type of man who could
understand everything: particular difculties, technological limitations, lack of qualifed personnel, or any other argument that justifed the failures, but incompetence irritated me. It was as clear as day that Mr.
Mendes was trying to deceive me with lame excuses that only proved his incapacity. I was already aware of
their peculiar routine. He showed up at the company when it suited him, the call, for example, was due to the
fact that he was out of the city of Rio de Janeiro during the week. I am the owner of the company and I never take vacations or rest. I had hired a frm specialized in tax documents in SĂŁo Paulo, without anyone knowing, I
removed the requested information for a preview, the result would arrive in the next few days. - Mendes, I
don't want excuses. You should have submitted all documents in a timely manner, this did not happen. I gave
you structure, staff and very generous deadlines. Get the damn job done. - But BenĂcio, you need to understand that... - I don't have to understand anything. If you know the amounts to be paid monthly, you can
organize the cash outfow with the purchasing and fnance department. Simple. You have until the end of the
week. -But it's only two days until then. - TIC Tac. The clock never stops, Mendes. I ended the call without even saying goodbye. The man thought that my young age was synonymous with stupidity, that's right. I
checked my watch, lunch had already passed a couple of hours ago and I was hungry. I opened the desk.
drawer and took out my wallet, picked up the cell phone I had just dismissed and headed outside. - Giulia, I'm
going to eat something outside, I'll be back in thirty minutes - I said, looking at the time. - Yes sir. Your next meeting is in forty-fve minutes. The room is under preparation. - Have they all been confrmed? - Yes sir.
There are nine in total. - Excellent. And Anabel? - You are already aware of the meeting. - Ok. I followed the
path to the elevator, faced the corridor that led to the meeting room and the old BIM controller department, it seemed like years had passed. The department took a turn after all the confusion with MaurĂcio and his need
to harm my sister's current fancé. Despite all the chaos and losses at the time, I cannot regret what happened. With the intention of protecting her then boyfriend, Tiago, Anabel came up with a scheme and
caught the whole plot orchestrated by her ex-boyfriend and we were able to fre the fakers. My sister fnally let the administrative streak in our family come to the surface, took the reins and joined me and Leon, our.
partner, in solving problems. I ignored the fact that that hallway also reminded me of the place where I had the most memorable experience of my life. At least, the beginning of it. The blonde with fowing hair, a slenderbody and curves in the right places, owner of an extremely difcult temperament and who had the gift of
making my mood fuctuate more than anything else I've
