One Month Later

I had been excelling in my new position as Paul's personal assistant. Being able to see the behind the scenes workings of WWE was fascinating. And there was never a dull moment at work, there was always something interesting for me to work on with working with Paul. And the monetary benefit was also great. My first check was huge! Way more than I was expecting. I kept hold of the check stub and made a note to ask Paul about the amount, there had to be an error. I had also learned that I never wanted to be on his bad side, seeing his angry was not very pretty. I really enjoyed my job and having Paul as a boss was fantastic. We got along great, there were even moments when we were working on something together where there would be flirting and perhaps a little sexual tension. I knew he was much older than me, but I really didn't care. There was something about Paul, he was so much different than anyone else I had been around. I just didn't want the flirting and sexual tension to ruin our work relationship.

Paul had a lot of work to catch up on and he asked me if I was willing to work Saturday. I didn't have anything better to do so I said that I would be there to work. I was currently in the middle of taking notes from Paul's meeting that he attended on Thursday when I noticed the computer monitor start to flicker. I quickly hit the save button and good thing that I did. The monitor went black and I heard the trademark hiss of the power going out. Wonderful, I hoped that it would kick on quickly. It was the middle of July and it would get very hot in the building without the air going. I got out of my chair and walked down the hall to Paul's office. He was already on his cellphone making a call.

"Well, as if working on a Saturday wasn't bad enough, now we have a power outage." Paul said as he tossed his phone on his desk.

"How long will it be out?" I asked.

"Who knows? It's a pretty big area outage. Could be thirty minutes. Could be an hour. It could be more. They couldn't give me a firm timeline."

"Oh wonderful," I sighed

"Yup, here we are, stuck in the office during a power outage and it starting to get warm in here already."

"Yeah," I started to fan myself with a magazine that was lying on the table. "I'm going to grab the bottle of water that I have in my minifridge, I will be right back. Guess I can keep you company since neither of us will be getting any work done at the moment."

"Sounds good to me, Leyna."

"Okay, be right back." I headed down the hall and back into my office. I grabbed my water and went back to Paul's office. When I returned, Paul had removed his suit jacket and was now in his blue button up dress shirt and dress pants. I looked for a moment and enjoyed the sight. I had to admit, Paul was a very good looking man, but he was my boss so I had to keep those thoughts to a minimum. "It is getting hotter and hotter in here," I said as I opened my water and took a long sip.

"Tell me about it," Paul took a seat at his desk and sighed. I took a seat across from his desk.

"Forgive me, but I can't wear this jacket anymore, it is too hot."

"Leyna, no need to apologize, try to get comfortable." I took another sip of water before unbuttoning and taking off my black suit jacket leaving me in my dark blue button up blouse and my black skirt. I took the ponytail holder that I had on my wrist off and pulled my hair into a ponytail. When I was done, I noticed that Paul was looking right at me, with a smile on his face. I looked down and saw that one of the buttons on my blouse at came undone and a little of my red bra was showing. Highly embarrassed, I buttoned it back up. "Well, you really are getting comfortable, aren't you?" Paul teased.

"I'm so sorry about that,"

"No need." Paul smiled at me. "Besides, red is a very nice color on you."

"Is that so?" I asked

"Yes, that is so. You wouldn't happen to have a red business suit, would you?"

I smirked and decided to play along. "I just might"

"Well, I think that you should wear it to work Monday. Just a suggestion." Paul said

"As the boss wants, so it shall be," I winked as I took another sip of water.

"Good."

"So, Bossman," I started. I noticed the smirk on Paul's face. He wasn't upset with my comment. "You look very well built for someone that is just the Vice-President. Is there something that you aren't telling me?"

"Maybe," Paul laughed.

"Hey! I shared things about me! It's only fair." I pouted

"Leyna, don't you pout like that," Paul asked.

"And why not?"

"I'd rather see you happy," Paul winked at me "And there is a little something that I haven't told you. Before I was the Vice-President, I was an active WWE wrestler for many years."

"I knew it!" I laughed. "Did you have an interesting nickname?"

"My wrestler name was Hunter Hearst Helmsley, which was shortened to Triple H. My nickname was The Game."

"The Game huh? Is this a game that I would like to play?" I instantly closed my eyes and clamped my hand over my mouth. Did I really just blurt that out in front of my boss! I slowly opened my eyes and saw Paul grinning happily at me.

"I don't know Miss McDaniels, would you like to try and play The Game?"

I bit down on my bottom lip. What in the world was going on here? The amount of flirting and tension was off the chart. Was it the heat? Was there really something there? I didn't know. "Maybe I would…but wouldn't that be a problem considering our work relationship…and the fact that you are separated?" I asked. Yeah, I was going there…there was no going back now.

Paul got out of his chair and walked over and stood in front of me. I looked up at him and recrossed my legs. My mouth felt so dry and I took another long drink of water. "I don't want you to worry about my separation. For all purposes, I am a single guy. As for our work relationship, I think that it can only be enhanced by anything more than may happen." Paul reached for my hand. I put my hand in his and he pulled me up so I was standing with him. His height and weight dwarfed me. I loved his size, it made me feel safe. "So, with that being said, Miss McDaniels, do you feel like you could handle this Game?"

I licked my lips, there was really no going back now, "I would sure love to try," Paul leaned forward and I closed my eyes and waited for his lips to press against mine….and then I heard the loud whoosh of the air coming back on. I opened my eyes and saw that the power had been restored. "Shit!" I swore.

"No need to be upset, Leyna," Paul ran his finger along my jaw and then reached for my hair and pulled it out of the ponytail, letting my black/blue hair fall down past my shoulders. "There will be plenty of time for you to play the Game." Paul leaned forward and whispered in my ear "I promise." I felt his tongue gently flick against my earlobe and I nearly jumped out of my skin. I looked into Paul's eyes and smiled.

"This really isn't going to be my typical Personal Assistant job, is it?"

"Not at all."

A/N: Well, things are really getting interesting between Leyna and HHH, huh? The Game is sure a tease! ;) Do you think that something may come of this? Should Leyna pursue this? Should Leyna wear her red business suit on Monday? Comment and review!
