CHAPTER 41

Val

My reflection stares back at me in the elevator doors, and I want to button my shirt up to my neck.

I’ve been to the office before, and I knew today would be a bit much—because I knew the girls on the conference call yesterday would spill the beans about me marrying Dominic. And I knew the tattooed finger would become a big deal. But I didn’t expect my boss to act so slimy.

Mr. Ritz has always been a little… too friendly. Pushing that line between being socially awkward and something you would report to HR. But today—

I run my hands down the sides of my skirt.

Maybe it was my fault for wearing something more formfitting than usual, but you’d think being recently married would put me in the off-limits category. I mean, every employee should be in that category for Mr. Ritz anyway, but his looks today were more like leers. And more than once, he stood too close to me, and I swear he looked down my shirt.

Rob is standing silently at my side, and I open my mouth to ask him if I should tell Dom about it.

But then I shut my mouth.

If I ask Rob, he’ll tell Dom. And I’m not entirely certain Dominic wouldn’t kill my boss.

In fact, I’m fairly certain Dominic would kill him.

And even though I’m beginning to believe that Mr. Ritz is a sleazeball, I’m not sure he deserves death.

The elevator opens, and I step out ahead of Rob.

I don’t know if he’s been told not to talk to me, but he was silent on the ride to and from work, so I keep up the trend.

All I want is to go upstairs, put on sweatpants, and scream into my pillow for a bit.

Since I get to the door first, I put my hand on the security screen and wait for the sound of it unlocking, then I walk through.

I make it four steps into the condo before I freeze at the same time Rob says “Oh shit” under his breath.

Because standing in my kitchen is a woman. Practically a girl since she looks younger than me. With long black hair, a crop top showing off a trim waist, and leggings so tight I’m surprised she can breathe.

I let my backpack slide off my shoulder.

Rob catches it before it can land on the ground, but I don’t care.

“Who the fuck are you?” I snap.

My feet are killing me, but I’m not about to show weakness in front of this woman, so I keep my shoes on as I stride toward her.

She stops what she’s doing, her eyes going wide as she watches me. “Um, I’m making dinner.”

I refuse to think about how delicious it smells in here.

If Dominic thinks he can hire some sexy woman to make me jealous… Well, it’s working.

“You’re home.” Dom’s voice fills the great room, and my head snaps to the side to see him walking out from the lower hallway in nothing but workout shorts.

Sweat is dripping from his body.
