“That’s what like about you . Your sharp tongue further turns me on.” Saying this he lowered his head and kissed Raima softly on her lips.
Raima was left stunned over what had just happened. He had just given her an alternative either the promotion or leave his company and then casually kissed her.
His kiss though soft was persuasive and she had practically melted. Instead of stopping him she had kissed him back.
For the job offer she knew the answer. She would not wait till next week but give her answer this Monday. She would not miss this opportunity as such things happen only once in one’s life..
