Here is a little teaser from Ruby:
“Miss Tanner, what brings you up to the seventeenth floor?” Mr. Walker asked.
“Well, it’s been almost a year since you signed your last lease, and since you seem so comfortable up here, I thought I’d bring up the renewal papers,” Ava said as she looked around the lobby.
“Wonderful! Let’s step into my office, shall we? I’ll sign them right away. Otherwise, they’ll get lost on my desk.”
Ava nodded and followed Tom to his office. He stopped short and let her enter first as he gently placed a hand on the small of her back. Butterflies erupted in her stomach.
He closed the door behind them and gestured at one of the guest chairs while taking the packet of papers from her. She could smell his cologne as he approached her. It reminded her of rain and fresh cut grass. He took a seat behind his large desk, which shined in the sunlight from the window behind him.
“So the papers would get lost on your desk, huh?” Ava asked.
“Well, I might have exaggerated a bit,” he replied. Silence followed as he flipped through the pages of the lease.
He cleared his throat, “So, since I’m signing papers—”
“Oh, no. Let’s not start that, Mr. Walker. You know I can’t work for you,” Ava said, before he got the question out.
“How did you know?” He grinned.
“You ask me every time we see each other.”
“I wish we would see each other more often. Then maybe I would wear you down.”
“I just don’t think I’d fit in at Psytech, and I like where I am now,” Ava replied.
Tom sighed. “I know you do. I just can’t figure out why.”
The pen dragged on the last page of the renewal papers as Tom signed his name with a flourish. He stood and rounded the desk with a predatory look on his face. It was one that Ava had seen often. She couldn’t convince herself it was only the look of a man who wanted her to work for him. To her, it sometimes seemed that he wanted so much more. She took a deep breath as he came closer. She was about to stand, but he surprised her by sitting in the guest seat next to her.
“I hope that one day you will say yes to me. Psytech could really use you—I could really use you.”
The metal elevator doors glided
open to the luxurious seventeenth floor of the Herrick-Peyton building. Fresh,
colorful hibiscus flowers welcomed Ava as she stepped into the reception area.
She glanced around and made eye contact with the man she was looking for: Tom
Walker. His face lit up when he saw her, and his handsome grin made Ava’s own
smile spread across her face.
