Running (Walker Series Book 2)

Chapter 23

Sage's POV

It has been two months since I came back and I can say it's been one of the best two months of working for the Walkers.

And my boss has been really understanding, if he is not being a total jerk he's one of the nicest person to deal with.

Most times he has offered drop me home, I agree on some occasion but majority of the time I just let Clair take me home.

I have kind of gotten used to calling him Alex that I hardly ever use sir on him again.

Trust me I'm still on edge about Dante and that old man but I won't let that ruin my peace and quiet.

The meeting today was a success, when my boss walked out and saw Mr Miller and I, I couldn't help but notice how his jaw was clenched, it looked like he was angry

For a minute I thought he was gonna go back to his old ways and lash out on me but he just requested for the minutes.

I don't know what he has against Mr Miller but he's just a good client and he always cracks me up whenever he comes here.

I see him like an older brother, we're not that close but if we were I'd definitely take him to be my older brother.

I dropped the minutes on Alex's desk after I left Mr Miller, he wasn't in his office, so I figured he went out.

I won't lie, when I saw my boss angry after the meeting it made me feel some type of way and not in a bad Dante way but hot.

I mean not that I like him or anything but it would be hot to get someone like that jealous but pfft who am I kidding, he doesn't like me like that so he can't even possibly be jealous, I mean he's just trying to tolerate me.

I'm just waiting for when he'll flip again but I'm ready to face him this time.

Him looking jealous over a woman would be a sight for sore eyes, I mean he's hot and attractive.
His eyes holds this fire in them that just gets me hot and bothered most of the time.

I mean if he wasn't my boss and I didn't have so much baggage up my ass, I totally would be fan girling right now.

And damn how my name often rolls off his tongue, it does things to me. I don't know if it's because I've never really been with a guy before asides Dante and that wasn't really a nice experience, my boss is the first guy I'll even think of in a sexual way like this

Don't get me wrong, I'm not swooning over him but ever since Dante I've always seen all men as the same thing, disgusting and dominating but with my boss it's different.

He's the first guy I've found attractive in a long while.

My mind slowly drifts to Dante, I remember the first time I saw him, he looked so handsome and don't even get me started on his Italian accent.

I had met him through Dad, at first I wanted to hate him but his attractiveness was out of this world, I swooned at him without even realizing it.

If only I knew how much of a devil he was, I would have rejected every plea my dad made that day.
He acted like a gentleman, all were his ways to get me and he succeeded.

I was lost in thought that I didn't even know Clair had walked into my office and was calling me, only when she touched me did I jump.

"God you scared me" I breath out holding my chest.

"Are you okay? You seem lost in thought"? She asked looking at me with concern.

"Yeah I'm fine" I waved her off "is there something you need? sorry I didn't hear you before" I tell her adjusting myself.
