Get ready to file that sexual harrassment suit, Buffy. There's no way he's allowed to make those kind of references to a subordinate.

Damn Liam....another man thinking with his dick instead of being fair to hard work.

Interesting, that Spike's younger than Buffy......thinking of a song lyric: "I'm smart, slick, lean and mean. No one can out bullshit me."

Author's Response: Indeed. As much as I loathe the issue of actual cases of RL workplace sexual harrasment, hopefully I won't offend anybody with the way I address it once the chapter comes up. It's just a comedy, not to be taken too seriously even though it has that unfortunate issue in it. As for Liam... just wait and see, that's all I can say without giving anything away, *winks*... it'll become apparent later on. LMAO - love the song lyric reference you have here. Ya know, there isn't a really huge age gap here and I thought why not for once have him be younger than her, so, that's the way I wrote it.... let him learn a thing or two from a mature woman. Glad you enjoyed darling and thanks so very much for the review. Smooches.

Oh My God. If I were Buffy I don't know if I could stop myself from quitting. To put in that much time and effort to be given a "promotion" to being a bloody assistant? Oh and I totally hope Buffy puts him in his place for his "beneath me" comment. I just love Buffy's sharp tongue and can't wait for her to cut Spike down again... It's just so funny. :) Awesome chappy, sweetie, and eagerly awaiting the next one!

Author's Response: Tell me about it. If this were RL, I'd have committed murder by now. As for Buffy putting him in his place... giggles... you KNOW she will. She has spirit in this for sure and the sharp tongue you're hoping for, *winks*. Loved your review darling and hope you like ch 3 once its up - hugs you tight.

Oh, yea....saw it coming, but it was way better than what I imagined! Great update! Looking forward to the next one.



Author's Response: Oh good. I know some things are predictable, but I'm glad that I at least made it fun for you - thank you so much for the reivew sweets... hugs and kisses.

How sad, although it has never personally happened to me. Too often women are passed over in the workplace due to the lack of a penis. Great teaser, let the games begin! I will watch for more. Kelly

Author's Response: I absolutely agree, it is sad and it does happen, ughh. But I'm glad to see you're looking forward to more and liked ch 2. Thank you sweety for the review - kisses.

Buffy.. almost 30.. Spike 23... play on words.. Beneath me.

Leave it to the Men running the business to give her more responsibility and no more money..

Enjoying...

Author's Response: Giggles, well, why not make him a bit younger - he could stand to learn a thing or two from being around an older woman - and hey, the gap isn't huge. Yup, corporate life and men - sometimes the sterotype is true unfortune as it may be. Thanks for the review darling - huggles.

as always its brilliant i cant wait for more.

Author's Response: Thank you sweety - I'm glad you enjoyed it. Kisses.

lol that was great! can't wait for more i wanted to ask you about another story you posted awhile ago i can't find it anywhere...it was about spike being the queen's guard in London and buffy was a tourist who teased him...what happend to it? i really liked it

Author's Response: Hi sweety, it's god to hear from you again and I'm so please you enjoyed chappy 1 of ML. You're talking about Her majesty's Guard. I took that off TSR to work on it as a origiinal fic for epublication - I felt bad doing it, but I went off the advice of a friend when making the decision. I'll be updating ML soon and I do hope you enjoy ch 2 just as much. Thank you so very much for the review darling. Hugs and kisses.

**Dances around happily!** I am so freaking happy to see you back on the site. Great story so far, can't wait for more!!!!

Author's Response: THank you so much honey, it feels wonderful to be back and of course I'm pleased you enjoyed the first chappy. Smooches to you sweety.

Absolutely loved it. And to quote Spike, your bloody amazing. Can't wait for more.

Author's Response: Hahahahas, thank you so much, that made me smile. Hugs you tight sweetheart.

Ohhh.... I love it so far. Good start and way to go Buffy. I do hope she doesn't have to move out her apartment if she will not get the promotion!
And Spike really should look up how to pick up a woman :)... or how to pick up a woman with success :).
Sad that I will leave for 3 weeks holiday without Internet.... ok holiday is good.. no internet not. I have to reread your story than :).

Author's Response: Giggles, well, SPike and his big mouth and ego = a bitchy Buffy when he misreads her totally, LOL. Please enjoy your holiday darling and I do hope when you come back and catch up, that you'll enjoy ML. Thank you so much for the lovely review. Hugs.

Yup, me and the boy both used to be in telemarketing, he sticking with it longer and ending up a closer, and my mother used to run her own business and take me to conferences......so ask away if you need details. He's IT for a nursery supply company now, and he laughs at the babied sales people that complain about having to take their own orders. Seriously, most of them don't even have to stump for new accounts, and take 2 hour lunches. We had to be on the phones constantly, or we got yelled at for goofing off. It was all about numbers, man.

Author's Response: OMG, and I remember how frustated some of the sales people were and saw the stress and hurry and bustle al over their faces, wearing them down. It's not something I would ever want to do and even my lowly job was made stressful. THank you for the review darling and I'm glad you enjoyed chappy 1. Huggles.

Omg I'm so glad u finally wrote and what a wonderful new story vert funny and witty I'm really enjoyin this first chap hope u write soon and had a wonderful break

Author's Response: I had a great break, thank you. Had lots of family in and out of the house for over a month and then had fun writing like crazy. So I'm pleased you like the first chappy. I wanted to start it all off with a bang of banter and attraction. Thanks for the review darling, huggles. Hope ou enjoy ch 2 once I post it.

OMG I am so late to the party, and believe me when I saw you had started a new story, I thought my birthday came early. Love the storyline, lots of potential, and hey it's you so I know it will be good. I'm so glad you are back and back with a vengeance. Whatever your new writing method is, it seems to be working. I will look forward to any and all updates. Don't go away for such a long period of time again
!

Author's Response: Hahahhaaha, wow, I'm flattered and soooooooo pleased you liked the intro of my new story. I'll try not to go away again for so long - of course the holidays and having family in an out like a revolving door didn't help, but at least my new method seems to allow my writing to get me Thank you so much for the lovely review darling. Huggles.
