Victoria tensed up, and closed her eyes, not wanting to answer the question. She still wasn't sure if she was ready to be in a relationship, and with him. She was trying to figure out if it was lust, or if she did in fact have feelings for him. Tightening her arm around him, she looked up at him for a minute, then looked down and rested her head on his chest, afraid to say no, when she really means yes.

He sighed, and tilted his head back further into the pillow, looking up at the ceiling. "I take that's a no."

She closed her eyes, and breathed in deep. She just wanted to enjoy the moment of what they just got done doing, and how she was enjoying the moment of being in his arms. "I never said no, I'm just not ready to commit to anything, yet." she said quietly.

The next morning, she woke before him, and quietly got out of bed. She needed coffee, and headed to the kitchen to make some. She looked in all the cupboards, trying to be as quiet as she could, not wanting to wake him, and had to laugh when she saw how empty the cupboards were. She stopped searching, and stood there looking around, wondering where he would have put the coffee grounds. While she was looking at one of the cupboards, she didn't hear Dalton walk up behind her. He wrapped his arms around her waist, and nibbled on the side of her neck. "Good morning."

Her eyes closed, and hummed with a smile "Good morning." She turned around, wrapped her arms around his shoulders, and looked at him confused. "I've been trying to find the coffee, and can't seem to figure out where you would've put it."

He chuckled, and looked over at the clock. "You can either give it a minute, or just go ahead and hit the brew button. I already have it pre-set to brew... and for future references, the coffee is on the top shelf in the pantry, next to the refrigerator." He heard the coffee start to brew, looked at the coffee pot, and pointed "See."

"Oh, thanks, I was really needing some coffee, and thought I would bring you a cup as well."

He looked her in the eyes, slid his hand up through her hair, cupping the back of her head, and pulled her in for a kiss. Her being there with him, in his arms, against his body, and with their lips locked together, had him wanting to show her how much he liked her, and that there was no other woman he'd rather be with.

He lifted her up onto the counter, and stood in between her legs, kissing her lovingly along her neck, and giving her goosebumps, that was making the back of her hairs stand. "While the coffee is brewing, I have a little something in mind that'll have you floating on air all day." he says, lowly into her ear, sending shockwaves throughout her body.

Her nipples hardened, and purred when he removed her top and wrapped his mouth around her breast, nibbling and sucking. He moved back up to her lips, and kissed her passionately while pulling her closer to the edge of the counter. He slowly moved his hand up, and down her leg, and in-between to her warmness, thrusting a finger into her, while massaging her button with his thumb.

He lowered his mouth to the cream pie, and dug into the cream. Putting her into a euphoria that sent jolts of electricity sparking throughout her insides, causing her body to jerk, tremble, and shake. He was enjoying his cream pie, and his early morning breakfast, and rolled his eyes up to look at her when he knew he satisfied her with an orgasm. One that was extremely intense, that had her screaming his name.

He was determined to make sure she walked around at work all day with a smile, and continued giving her one orgasm after another, until she started begging him to stop. He moved up, and thrusted his cock into her, thrusting slow, and deep while leaning over, kissing her with love. The love he had for her was growing, and wanted to show her in his kiss, that she does mean something to him, and that she's not this person he wants to only have sex with.

After they both released, he picked her up, and carried her into the shower, he wasn't done with her yet, and knew they both needed to shower before they went in to work. He lifted her, and pressed her up against the wall while thrusting himself into her. Taking her to another level of ecstasy, that had her not wanting to go to work, and wanting to be doing this all day with him. By the time they were done, cleaned up, dressed, and ready for work, her mind was in a different state of mind, that had her grinning from ear to ear.

He poured her a cup of coffee, and handed it to her, along with a kiss on the lips. "Hope I made your morning."

"You did." she happily moaned. Her body was feeling numb, and was feeling a little sore below, that she wasn't going to complain about it. This was something she's never felt, or had to deal with before, and hoped it wasn't going to be noticeable around the people who she worked with, then began to wonder if she were going to be walking bowlegged all day.

"Excellent... you also made my morning, by seeing that beautiful smile on your face. It makes me feel good, and to know I did something right for once."

"You always do something right with me... except when you piss me off." she says, giggling. She pulled him in for a kiss, then looked him in the eyes, wanting to see how bad his eyes were today. Seeing they were still red, and puffy, she frowned, and felt bad.

"What's with the frown?"

"Your eyes, they're still red, and swollen... I still can't believe I sprayed mace in your eyes."

He kissed her on the forehead, and smirked "Well, you didn't know it was me, and you were only doing what you thought was right. One good thing about it is, at least I know you know how to protect yourself." He pulled her in for one last kiss before they headed out, and as he pulled away, he looked at her with a serious look. "I don't want to see that smile disappear today, got that?"

"Got it."

On the way to work, Victoria couldn't stop smiling, and kept thinking about the way he made love to her, how he made her feel before they left for work, and what he admitted to her the night before. She still couldn't figure out if it was lust, or if she was starting to have feelings for him, and wasn't sure if she should talk to Tiara about what her and Dalton have been up to, or if she should just keep their affair a secret.

She walked into the office, and was surprised to see Tiara sitting at her desk, working. "Wow, you're here awfully early."

"I know, I figured I better start early, since Janelle is still in training."

"Oh shit... I forgot about her."

Tiara turned to her, resting her arm on the top of the chair, and giggled. "She thinks you hate her."

"I don't hate her, I was just shocked to see her in here, training... but I had a nice talk with Dalton, and she's only here to help us catch up."

"Dalton?... you're calling him by his first name, and not Doctor Jones? WOW." Tiara said surprised.

Oops she thought to herself. "That's what I meant to say, but if he keeps pissing me off, I'll address him by his first name."

Janelle opened the door, and walked in looking at Victoria. "Hello." she said happily, and walked over to her holding out her hand "We never got introduced properly, my name is Janelle, and it's very nice to meet you."

"It's nice to meet you too." she says, shaking her hand. "Sorry about yesterday, I was having a bad day, and was shocked to see you here training. Nothing against you, I just have some issues with Doctor Jones."

"So, I've heard." she giggled. "I've known him a long time, and I know how he can be. He can be quite the pest."

"You're telling me." she laughed, then furrowed her eyebrows. "I'm guessing he told you about him and I not getting along?"

"He mentioned you would be upset if you saw me back here working, but Tiara also talked to me about how you two bicker every day."

"I had to tell her." Tiara cut in. "And you should know, that's her brother." she laughed.

Victoria looked at Tiara, and placed her hands on her hips. "I know... he told me... and you could have warned me before he and I got into it." She saw their eyes widen, and she held up her hand. "Don't ask, it's all settled, we're good."

She sat down, smiled, and giggled. "We better get to work, before Doctor Jekyll comes in here barking orders." She had to throw them off, but couldn't get off her mind what he told his sister about her, and the more she thought about it, the more she wanted to know, and needed to find an excuse to go talk to him.

Later in the morning, it was still bothering her about what Janelle knows about her and Dalton, and grabbed some files off her desk. She stood up looking at Tiara and Janelle, and walked over to them. "Do you have any files for Doctor Jekyll? I'm on my way to find him, and to hand these to him, that way I can get them billed to insurance."

Tiara grabbed a stack, and handed them to her, giving her a strange look, then wondered what she was up to. "You're going to give them to him now?"

"Yes, he's on our ass about getting them finished, might as well get them fixed right away."

She left the room, saw he wasn't in his office, and walked the hallway looking for him. She headed to the front desk, and asked the girls if he was still around.

"He's still here, but I'm sure he's with a patient at the moment."

"OK, thanks."

She walked back, and headed for his office. She knew eventually she'll run into him, and to be able to talk to him. She set the folders on top of his desk, and left him a note. Just as she stood up, and was ready to head back to her office, she heard the door shut, and jumped. She turned her head towards the door, and smiled when she saw him walking over to her.

"Isn't it a little early?" he asked.

"Early for what?" she asked confused.

"For this..." He pulled her in for a kiss, hiked up her skirt, and lifted her. Her legs instantly wrapped around him, and kissed him back urgently, moaning when he kissed her back harder. He walked her over to his desk, and set her down.

"Dalton." she moaned quietly "We can't do this right now." she said sounding worried, when his hand slid underneath her skirt, tickling her pussy.

He removed his hand, and chuckled. "I know, I just wanted to see what you would do... what did you need anyway?" He helped her off the desk, and pressed his lips against hers one more time, giving her one hell of a passionate kiss that left her breathless.

"I brought you some files that we need you to fix." she panted, trying to calm herself down.

"Really... normally you wait until the end of the day to hand them to me." he smirked "You just wanted to see me, didn't you? You can't seem to get enough of me, can you?"

She smiled, while giving him a shove. "Yes, I wanted to see you. But not for a kiss, or for you to get me worked up like you did just now, but I had gotten curious when I remembered that you have your sister in the back working with us, and wanted to know, what did you tell her about me? About us?"

"Nothing... I just told her that she had to deal with a very temperamental woman back there... meaning you." he laughed, and laughed harder when she gave him a dirty look. "What? You're the one calling me Doctor Jekyll, and what was the other one you called me again?... Oh yes, I remember... money-grubber."

"Well... I'm not temperamental, it's only because of who I've had to deal with for the last couple months."

"You know you like it." he says, grinning. He wanted to stay in the room with her, but knew he had a patient waiting for him, and had to get going. "I have to get back to a patient, and give her, her test results. Come find me before you leave tonight, I have something for you." he says, after pulling her in for a kiss.

"OK." She left his office smiling, wondering what he had for her, and sat back down at her desk. Janelle happened to see her walk in, and saw the smile she had on her face. She didn't say anything, but started to wonder if she, and her brother had a thing going on.

Tiara was feeling hungry, looked at the time, then looked at Victoria, and Janelle asking if the two wanted to go get lunch. "I'm not hungry, thanks for asking." Victoria said.

"I'm good too." Janelle responded back.

"OK, I won't be long, I'm just going to run down the street, and get a salad to bring back. If you two want anything let me know, and I'll pick something up for you." she says, walking out the door.

After Tiara left, Janelle kept looking over at Victoria, curious as to what she really thought of her brother, and opened her mouth "I have a question to ask."

"What's that?" Victoria asked, as she looked at her computer screen.

"What do you think of my brother?"

She turned her head toward her, and gave her a curious look. "Your brother? I think he's a nuisance." she giggled "Ever since he took over the place, he's been on my ass, and does whatever he can to piss me off... why?"

"I didn't want to say anything while Tiara was in the room, but when you came back after talking to him, you had a smile on your face that wasn't hard to notice, and started wondering if the two of you are more than what you're showing, and telling everyone."

Victoria's stomach dropped, and didn't know what to tell her. She didn't want to lie to her in case she did decide to be with him romantically, but also didn't feel comfortable talking to her about what her feelings were towards him. "I'll admit he's a looker, and one you can't seem to keep your eyes off of, but like I said, he's a nuisance."

Janelle wasn't too sure if she was telling her the truth, and figured she would have a talk with Dalton later. She didn't want to see Victoria get hurt by her brother. She loved him, but knew he too just got out of a longtime romance, one who he loved dearly, and didn't want to see him rebound with someone he hardly knew, where the both could end up hurting each other.

"I just want to say something... I know him all too well, and know how he is. I know nothing about you, but from what Tiara has told me, and what you're going through, I don't want to see you hurt by him either."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"I'll just leave it at that. If you two have nothing going on, then there's nothing to worry about."

Victoria turned around, looking down at the file in front of her, unsure of how to take in what Janelle was telling her. It had her curious, and with Dalton on her case wanting to know more about her, and what her relationship status was with Brayden, she felt now was the time to learn more about him, and what his sister meant. The way she sounded; she was implying to stay away from him.

After her talk with Janelle, the rest of the day felt long to her, as she tried figuring out why Janelle wanted her to stay away from Dalton, and wondering how he could possibly hurt her. Even though he asked her to find him before she left, she purposely stayed until Urgent care closed, and waited for him in his office.

Fifteen minutes had gone by, and there was still no sign of Dalton. Fuck it, she groaned, while standing to leave. As she walked to the door, it opened. "I was just leaving." she said irritated.

"Sorry, just finished with my last patient." he says, taking his jacket off. He noticed the tone in her voice, and grabbed at her hand when she was walking out the door, pulling her to him, and shutting the door with his foot. "What happened with that smile I asked you to keep on your face?"

Hope you enjoyed the chapter!!🤞🤞
