Chapter 19

He found her sitting at his desk and trying to cut open the taped seams of the package but the scissors kept slipping. It had probably been what had bought him some time.

“Let me,” Lars said but she wrenched the package back toward her.

“No.” Her gaze shot to him. “You guys tell me where to sleep, eat and work. It’s enough. This was delivered for me and I’m going to be the one to open it.” She stared at him, making it clear she was going to stand her ground on this.

He was at a loss. He knew that he and his guys were, in essence, micromanaging her life but she hadn’t complained once. And he didn’t think this was so much about opening a package that was surely going to carry a bad message as her needing to gain some tiny bit of control back. He didn’t like it but she was right. If he respected her then he had to let her do it.

But he couldn’t quiet down this pesky urge he had to protect her. He walked around the desk and hovered over her but he didn’t make another move to take the box.

She didn’t seem to notice or care where he was; as all of her attention focused on the package. Scissors in hand, she cut the rest of the taped seams and the top of the cardboard box flapped open. A folded note, which she withdrew, lay on top.
