Chapter Two
“Ivy? Ivy Smith?” asked the young woman in front of me expectantly. She was a short, curvy red-head wearing jeans and a t-shirt. I looked down at my own attire and felt instantly overdressed. I was wearing black dress pants and a baby blue cashmere sweater that my grandmother had given me three Christmases ago. I was just happy that I hadn’t worn heels and had instead elected to wear slip on style ballet flats.
I smiled at her and extended my hand, “Yes, thanks so much for the opportunity to come in today! You must be Liz?”
She nodded and shook my hand briefly, inspecting what I was wearing, “I probably should have told you over the phone that I thought your first day here you could just get familiar with the animals and what we do here at the facility.”
“Oh well, these clothes are old anyway. It’s no big deal.” I lied. The pants had been an expensive gift too from my grandmother. It was part of a two-piece interview suit she had given me as a graduation present.
Liz shrugged, “Well good. Let’s get started.” She took me on a tour of the facilities that was divided by a long hallway. The bigger dogs were in the back and then down the hall were the cats. Smaller dogs were in pens on the opposite side of the cats.
I had an affinity for big dogs even though I’d never owned a dog growing up. There was one that looked like some sort of hound dog. He was tall, dark brown and had large floppy ears; despite my wardrobe I couldn’t help but want to hug him so I climbed into his pen and did exactly that. He surprised me by standing up on his back paws and hugging me back.
“That’s Cola,” Liz said rubbing his ears. “He’s a favorite among the volunteers.”
“I can see why,” I replied extracting myself from Cola’s embrace.
“Mind if I take him for a walk?” I asked impulsively.
“Are you kidding? He would love that!”
And so I found a leash and took Cola around the grounds and then on a brief jaunt around the city. Although my internship hadn’t technically started yet, I was excited about it. It didn’t pay, but I would gain valuable experience to put on my resume and I would also get to spend time with Cola. Overall, I felt it was a win-win.
As we made our way back to the facility, I saw a stretch limo out front and a man climbed out of it. He was talking on his cellphone, but apparently he wasn’t very engaged in the conversation. Instead he was studying the shelter as if trying to make a decision about something. I studied him as he looked elsewhere, marveling at how good-looking he was. He was tall, stocky with long jet black hair that reached his shoulders. He was wearing a business suit, but the tie around his neck was undone and he had on sunglasses. He began
