Taunt Me (Rough Love book 2)
“It wasn’t a lovers’ getaway, unfortunately. In my fantasies, yes. In reality? No.
Three of my firm’s associates were with us, and one of them, Raneesh, had taken the seat beside me on the plane. Hannah and Jennifer sat in the adjacent row, and Chere was one row back, in the seat I’d intended for one of them.
Fuck. I couldn’t oust Raneesh so Chere could sit beside me, because I had business to talk with Raneesh, and Chere was just along to “learn.” Still, I wanted to do it.
I didn’t.
In all this... time, not one of my associates had come to suspect that Chere and I had a history together. They treated Chere the way you’d expect them to treat an intern, with polite and stand-offish condescension. If they thought it strange that I paid for an intern to accompany us to Oslo for two weeks, they didn’t comment on my decision.
Chere wasn’t even in front of me, damn it. If she was in front of me, I could have at least stared at the back of her head. Instead, I had to control the number of times I zoned out on Raneesh to glance back at her.MoreLess
