He chuckled. “No. You are an agreeable woman, and I could have seduced you, but I want you to want to be with me by your choice, so I will earn it.”
Loki grinned. “Now that I have that photo, we should get going.”
Minoru let her slide back onto her heels. He patted her backside. “Have a fun day at work. I will.”
She blinked and got into the car, slowly exhaling before she buckled up and started the vehicle. Loki got into the back, laughing his ass off. “So, that’s fun. How are you doing, Polly?”
“Why are alphas such assholes?” When he buckled up, she started driving.
“Well, we are smart, strong, and capable. Oh, and we need hobbies.” Loki was having fun at her expense. Nothing new there.
“Excellent. That doesn’t make me grit my teeth at all.”
“Well, you are both lucky and tortured to be suited for Minoru. He has patience.”
She remembered the hands holding her in the night and the soft purr that lulled her to sleep. “Remind me why that is a good thing?”
He laughed again, and they were on their way to the shoot.
Alexi was always busy, but he loved taking pictures of women. He was more of an art photographer than commercial, but this project was more art than advertising.
The kimonos that were being used were from a collector’s private collection. The models were dressed, and makeup was done. Polly made notes on the most successful models, and Loki was really pleased.
They had all four seasons done, each with several different kimonos.
Loki looked at Polly. “Now you.”
“What?”
“We need one for the new year.”
She checked her schedule. “No, we don’t. Not on the schedule. I am sure Alexi wants to get home to his mate.”
Alexi glanced at her. “I can take a short break if you can get into the robe. Seriously, Polly. You have a great face, and your body is excellent.”
“Gee. Thanks. You have a nice ass. Can I go now?”
Alexi snorted. “Nope. I need one more.”
Polly looked at Loki, and he put his hands together and said, “Please?”
“Is there a bonus in it for me?”
Loki winced. “Yes.”
“Will you not show this to Minoru?” She ignored the flinch that Alexi gave when she glared at Loki.
He grumbled. “Yes.”
“Good. I get the feeling I am going to have to pay for a lot of therapy in the coming months.” She stalked into the dressing area and put through makeup before the kimono slid onto her shoulders.
Ninety minutes later and she was really nervous about the photos. She got back into her office clothes and was queasy when Loki refused to show her the pictures.
They helped Alexi clear any of his equipment. She made sure that the kimonos were all intact and that the makeup artists had all their supplies and tools. Loki was talking with Alexi when she got back. Alexi was going over the shoot on his screen, and when he saw her, he grinned. “You turned out really well. Would you like to see?”
“Only if you want to see my lunch.”
Loki laughed. “You didn’t have lunch.”
