Ruka took in the way the man’s eyes glimmered in amusement and anticipation even though he was outwardly threatening her. Is

he hoping that I'd forget about it by then so that he'd have an excuse to fool around?

Images of Ren doing those intense push-ups earlier flashed through her mind. She blushed, and her heart thumped wildly in her

the day flew by. It was nearly 11.00AM, and she hated that she could not spend more talone with Ren. Why can’t tjust go

that she had brought him tea, a small smile tugged on his lips. “You must be thirsty! Have stea,” she said as she set the tray

No longer shy around him, Ruka nodded glumly and hummed in response.

“Just givea text when you miss me, and I'll be right over,” he promised quietly.

She straightened up and decided to leave him to his work. “Work hard. Don't letdistract you. I'll have Elijah dropoff.”

“| can do that,” Ren insisted as he wanted to drop her hpersonally.

She quickly shook her head. “No, your fleet of cars draws far too much attention.”
