Chapter 14

Lovers Aplenty

The rest of the weekend is pleasantly uneventful, but it doesn't stop me from obsessing about the executive team at PRI. Daniel, dark and mysterious, and sexy as hell. Edward, happy and outgoing, and enough heart to make everyone else feel just as alive. Patrick, kind and thoughtful, and confusing as hell. These men are so very different from any that I’ve encountered, and all they do is tie me up in circles and leave me floundering for some sort of footing.

I may have been out of the dating game for quite a while by now, but it's hard to imagine that they aren't flirting, that they're not trying to clue me into something that I’ve been too blind to see. The only thing is, they're my bosses. I was hired by them to do a job, to assist in all things business-related. The thoughts going through my head are certainly not business-related.

Is it just me? Am I making more out of this than there is? Or is there truly something between us? And which one?

I don't think a girl can be greedy enough to want all three to herself - can you?

Waking up for work on Monday morning is easier than I expected. I don't know if it's the men that I’ll be seeing soon or the fact that being home for an extended period of time gives me a bit of the jitters. With Jonathan, I wasn't allowed to go anywhere unless he was with me. Perhaps he was worried about me running off, or maybe even running into another man's bed. Either way, staying in for the weekend was like torture, but Washington decided that it wanted to pour rain every second of each day, and the last thing either of us needs is to be getting sick.

“I'm ready!” Eva calls stepping into my bedroom dressed in a purple paw patrol shirt, yellow jeans, and a blue tutu. Her shark rain boots are already on her feet, and her raincoat is trailing behind her on the ground.

Giving my carefully styled hair another fluff, I turn towards her, my arms out to showcase the outfit that I painstakingly put together. My baby pink blouse is tucked into my favorite black pencil skirt, a slit on the thigh, showing a dangerous amount of skin. The black sky-high stilettos are already killing my feet, but it's well worth the way they make my legs look. I decided to keep my hair natural today, the waves curling around my face, and drawing attention to the smokey eye I nailed down with the utmost care.

“Wow, you look so pretty!”

“Thanks, pumpkin! You got everything you need? Coat, backpack, hat?”

“Erm, my backpack is out there,” Eva points to the entryway and then starts to pull on her coat and hat.

“Alright, let’s go! Wyatt is probably waiting.” Hustling her out the door, I just barely remember to grab my cell phone from the charger. Wyatt is waiting outside for us, a Starbucks cup in hand.
