REYNA
"Leo, can you stop staring at us like our own personal stalker? It's getting weird." Savannah cringed. I glanced over at Leo who only rolled his eyes before crossing his arms over his chest, showing off the bulging muscles of his biceps through his suit jacket.Despite Savannah's request, he didn't bother removing his gaze. At first, I was creeped out by him, but I quickly came to realize that he was only doing his job.
Savannah huffed in annoyance as she threw herself down on Saint's office chair.
I had only met both Savannah and Leo today. I remembered seeing Leo stand as a guard for Saint's home while he was away, but Savannah was someone I had never seen before. She had raven black hair that barely reached her chin. It really defined her sharp features and high cheekbones and fox eyes.
"You need to get out of that chair," Leo stated, watching as the fiery woman spun around in Saint's seat like a bored toddler.
"No," she told him dismissively.
As I watched Savannah, I could just feel her confidence shedding off of her like sunrays. It was hugging my heart and inspiring the weakest part of my brain that that always made me so anxious to take a stand for myself.
"Reyna," the woman called, grasping my attention as I raised a brow.
She stood up from her seat, showcasing her sleeves of tattoos and black cropped tank-top. Her shorts did nothing to conceal her long legs that were trying their best to peak through her fish-net stockings.
She threw herself down on the couch beside me. There was a smile full of mischief on her face as she glanced at what I was doing on the computer before turning her attention back to me.
"If you keep staring at me like that, I just might eat you," she whispered with a wink. My eyes widened as she chomped down on air just to prove her point.
"Leave her alone, Savannah. You know what Saint told you," Leo stated. She turned toward him, raising her hand and flipping him off.
"Don't pay any attention to him. He's just a bit upset because Saint told him he couldn't speak to you but I can," she informed me after placing her hand back at her side.
"You are so mature," Leo said sarcastically.
"What? Why?" I asked.
Leo sighed as Savannah broke out in a fit of laughter. She clutched her hand over her chest and hunched over.
"Oops, was I not supposed to say that? I'm sorry, Leo, I thought I said it in my head," Savannah said, but she didn't sound unapologetic at all. Sarcasm skipped along with her every word.
"Yeah, right." Leo rolled his eyes. "I'm getting tired of babysitting."
Her laughter quickly died down as she settled for a glare. "Maybe if you had done your job of guarding the house, you wouldn't be in this position, now would you?" she questioned.
