I’m not fast enough the next day when the doorbell rings. Vaughn gets there before me and I guess I should be glad it’s him and not Rome that glares down his nose at John Wiggins.

“Can I help you?” Vaughn doesn’t sound all that helpful, and he doesn’t move when I try to shove him out of the way.

John looks uncertainly from me to Vaughn. “I’m uh, I’m here to do a quote for Sophie Covey for some built ins?” He holds up a toolbox and a notepad.

“Hi, John,” I puff out, trying to squeeze in front of Vaughn since he’s not moving. “I’m Sophie. We spoke on the phone.” I stick my hand into the space between us and he takes it. Vaughn emits a rumble from his chest, and I glare at him. “Don’t you have some training to do or something?”

He crosses his arms over his chest and glares down at me. “We need to talk.”

It’s all I can do to not roll my eyes at him, and instead, I give John a smile. “Just one moment. Sorry about that.”

I haven’t even finished speaking before Vaughn has pulled me away and slammed the door in the poor guy’s face. “He is not coming in here.”

“Yes, he is. I need someone to build shelves for me. That is what he is going to do.”

“Sweetheart, you can’t just let strangers into the house.” Vaughn makes it sound like I’m some kind of an idiot who doesn’t know how to take care of myself.

I cross my arms over my chest and raise my chin. “I hired him through a respectable website. He has over one hundred and fifty reviews, all of them four stars or higher. I did my fucking research, Vaughn. He’s not going to come in here and kill me. Especially now that he knows, you’ll probably rip his arms off if he touches me.”

His jaw ticks. “We can help you build the shelves. Or what’s wrong with the ones in the basement?”

Unbelievable. “The basement is your space now. You guys shoved all of my stuff onto the floor to make room for your weapons and armor. I know you aren’t going to help me. You haven’t before, so why would you start now? I don’t have the necessary carpenter skills or the inclination to do it myself. So,” I straighten up and reach for the handle of the door. “Excuse me, but I have a carpenter to hire.”

I yank open the door and thankfully John is still there, though he has moved toward the stairs like he’s thinking about running. “Sorry. Please come in.” I motion with my hand. “The room I need the shelves in is right over here.”

He steps inside and looks at Vaughn like he’s waiting to get bitch slapped by the huge man. I motion for John to precede me down that hall and he hurries to do so. I keep myself squarely between him and Vaughn. “Just up here on the left.”

As soon as we enter the room, John loses his nervous demeanor and gets right to work.
