It’s late when I get back to the city after abandoning the conference. Mr. Sloan is going to be pissed, but I don’t give a shit. I packed my bags and got the fuck out of there on the first available flight. I texted Andre before my flight, telling him I was too tired to talk. A white lie. I didn’t want to answer questions about why I was leaving the conference early and in such a rush.

It’s almost time for my nightly check-in with Andre, but a phone call isn’t enough. We’ve talked and texted every day while I was gone, now that I’m home, I hate the thought of another phone call. I need to see him. It scares me that I feel so strongly for him, but I push down that fear. Consequences be damned, I want Andre to wrap me up in his strong arms and erase the last three days.

I dump my luggage on my bed and head to the bathroom to freshen up. Considering I spent the last seven hours flying coach and dealing with two layovers, I don’t look too terrible. I'm not even mad at having to fly coach. I would've ridden with the baggage if it meant I got home.

I run a brush through my hair and clean my teeth. A quick change from my rumpled business suit into jeans and my favorite blue silk tank, and I’m ready to go.

Phone in hand, I open the car service app pausing before I order the car. Andre told me he wants me to use his driver… was he serious or just being nice? I decide he’s not the kind of guy who just says things to be nice. He told me to use his driver because he wants me to be safe.

I close the app and find his driver’s number in my contacts. The phone only rings twice before it’s answered by the deep voice of Julius, Andre’s driver.

“Umm… hi. Sorry to bother you. Andre told me I should call you if I needed a ride?” It’s part question, part statement. I feel like a blubbering idiot.

“Are you at home, Miss Brand?”

“Yes.”

“I’ll be there in five.”

The line goes dead before I have a chance to say thank you. I lock up the apartment and make my way downstairs to wait. Less than a minute later, Andre’s car smoothly slides to a stop, and his driver gets out frowning at me.

“You should’ve waited in your apartment,” Julius chides. “Andre would have my head if anything happens to you on my watch.”

I blink stupidly at him. “What does that mean?”

“It means that Andre will kick my ass if even one of your blonde hairs is damaged while I’m in charge of keeping you safe.”

He opens the backdoor, indicating I should get in. “That seems a bit extreme, doesn’t it?”

Julius shakes his head. “Nothing is too extreme when a man’s in love.”

“Love?” I choke out.

He doesn’t respond, just guides me into the car. I mull over his words as he maneuvers through the congested Saturday night traffic.
