Flora's nerves began to take over when the meeting room came into view. Not only was she worried about her designs, but the little problem of her stalkers niggled at the back of her mind. She wanted to assume she was safe, being out of town and with Dylan, but she knew better. At least now she knew better. That last breach of privacy in her apartment really set her off, and she hadnât been quite the same since. She prayed this new constant worry would fade once the problem had been taken care of.
âReady to meet Casandra and Romeo?â she asked Dylan, who was walking directly behind her. He was in her shadow, and she was grateful for that extra layer of security.
âOf course, time to get them off my suspect list.â
âDylan,â she winced, lagging her head back to ram into his shoulder. There was no way they were behind the attacks; what purpose would they have to be? None. She still believed it was someone who frequented Lust Lane, not someone she knew personally. While it could be wishful thinking, she doubted it was Cassandra and Romeo.
âWonât know till we find out,â Dylan commented as he pulled open the office door. The older couple stood together. Flora adored the love between the couple. Theyâd been together for over 30 years and still were infatuated with each other. Cassandra was dressed in a sweater dress and pumps with her hair straightened to perfection. Romeo was outfitted in dress pants and a button shirt, freshly ironed, and his hair parted to the side and gelled.
âCookies?â Cassandraâs warm honeyed voice asked, pushing a plate of chocolate chip cookies forward on the conference table.
âYou know it, Cassandra,â Flora asked, a smile brightening her face as she reached for the gooey mess of cookies.
âSo, who is this dashing young man here with you, Flora?â Cassandra asked as she proceeded to take her seat. Flora stared back at Dylan, unsure of how to answer the question. She wanted to say he was her boyfriend, but they only had their first date just last night, and jumping to conclusions wasnât her style.
âMy bodyguard. Dylan Enchanted,â she said, winking at Dylan.
âItâs nice to meet you,â Romeo spoke up. The pressure of Dylan meeting the two people who had her back in creating Dainty Rebel was daunting. The atmosphere in the room made her feel as if spiders were crawling up the back of her neck.
Shaking Romeo's hand, Dylan proceeded to offer his hand to Cassandra as well. Dylanâs shoulders squared off the moment they got close. His brooding energy filled whatever space in the room that wasnât occupied with the discomfort of strict judgment. Sitting next to Flora, Dylan wrapped his arm around the back of her chair. She couldnât lie and say she didnât thoroughly enjoy her bodyguard's possessiveness, with whom she also happened to have one of the best dates of her life with a mere 12 hours ago.
âLet's pull out the prototypes,â Flora said, clapping her hands together.
