Case File Name:
Partners In An Agreement.
♠Chapter Eleven♠
The next day I woke up in Marie's bed with a mild hangover.
I had entirely too many glasses of wine and I refused to come back for my car in the morning.
But staying the night seemed to only make my morning chaotic, especially since I already woke up late and I still had to get ready for work.
I swear I had never gotten ready so quickly.
Within thirty minutes, I was in a light pink dress and black stockings with matching black stilettos.
My dark hair was slicked up into a high ponytail with my shiny strands cascading down my back and my makeup...
Well I did that in the car.

And I had so much work to do...
"Lena?"
I glanced away from my phone, "Sorry, what did you say?" I suddenly said, focusing back on my boss.
Or coworker now?
We're technically on the same level now.
"No worries, I get you're busy with the new cases," Ivanna said in a hum, "I was just seeing if you wanted mahogany or walnut wood for your desk."

Romansa"If you wanted me to fuck you, all you had to do was ask," Tazmin said, her raspy voice lowered as she drew one of her hands up the inside of my thigh. I clenched my jaw, "I didn't," I gritted, even if we both knew it was a full-faced lie. Especiall...
