“Hmm, well, let’s not get ahead of ourselves. The interviews will be in two weeks so you need to make sure that you make a good impression.”
“I will.”
She straightened, moving her chair closer to him. Even though that meant she was pressed against him again. He might need to look at changing his deodorant because it wasn’t doing the best job.
However, she ignored all of that as she showed him everything.
“Very good. But I think you’ll have to stay longer to finish it.”
“I might have to take it home with me,” she said as she checked her phone when it buzzed again.
Loki:Ten minutes.
She couldn’t helpbut sag in relief. Loki would be here soon.
Should she tell him about Shawn? It was the question she’d often asked herself. But Shawn hadn’t really done anything concrete.
And she knew how Loki would react. She did not need her best friend going to jail for beating up her boss.
Plus, she really wanted that job. Imagine what she could do with the extra cash.
“What’s so important that you had to look at your phone while I am talking to you?” Shawn said
Oh, shit.
“I’m sorry, sir. It’s just that my ride is here.”
Shawn frowned. “You haven’t finished here. Tell them to leave.”
“I . . . I can’t. I won’t be able to get home.”
“Then I’ll drive you.”
Her mouth went dry. There was no way she wanted to get into a car with her boss. No way in hell.
Suddenly, Shawn’s phone rang and he drew it out of his pocket, swearing. “I need to take this. I’ll talk to you Monday.”
Sagging with relief, she quickly packed her laptop and handbag and high-tailed it out of there.
When she stepped outside, Loki was standing beside his bright-red truck. It was sexy and solid.
Like him.
“Hey!” she said, juggling her things.
He rolled his eyes at her, walking over to grab her laptop bag and briefcase.
“Thanks.”
“How many times have I told you to get me to come inside and help you, Tink?” he scolded as he put everything in the backseat. “And what’s with the laptop? It’s Friday night.”
“I still have some things to do,” she said as he opened the door for her. He lifted her up into her seat the way he always did. Of course, she’d probably have to take a running leap to get in herself.
Because this truck was high, not because she was short.
“That asshole is working you too hard. He still in there? I’m gonna go have a word with him.”
Loki turned and she threw herself on his back, ignoring the pain in her chest. The bruises had nearly faded, but slamming into a solidly built man was never going to feel good.
