Dream of Me by hopefullywriting

"Why do you keep looking at me like that?" Beatrice's voice was barely above a whisper, her pulse quickening as River leaned closer, the heat of his presence almost unbearable. "Like what?" he replied, his breath warm against her ear, teasing the edge of her control. "Like you want me to make the first move... but we both know you will." Beatrice Auclair never planned on being drawn to someone like River Mason-charming, infuriating, and impossible to ignore. Their playful banter in the office turns into something much deeper, much more dangerous. With every sarcastic comment and stolen glance, the lines between them blur, leaving Beatrice to question everything she thought she knew about her life and what she truly wanted. River is guarded, haunted by a past he won't talk about, yet he's the one person who makes her feel alive in ways she wasn't prepared for. As their connection intensifies, Beatrice finds herself tangled in the pull of a man who isn't ready to commit but refuses to let her go. When the tension between them ignites, Beatrice is forced to make choices she isn't ready to face-about love, heartbreak, and the possibility of losing herself in the process. As she navigates her career, friendships, and the shadows of her heart, she's left wondering: is this just another dead-end romance or the beginning of something that will change her forever?

"So, let me get this straight. You stomped all over his paperwork?" She started. "Not intentionally, but yes," I confirmed it. "Threw a drink in his face?" She added. "Expensive red wine." I described. "Rammed into his car with yours deliberately?" she counted on her third finger. "Um...I'm not proud of that one," I said cringing. "And called him offensive names?" She ended the list and I winced. "Twice." I specified. "And you're still alive?" She blinked, looking genuinely surprised. "Geez, don't be dramatic or anything..." I frowned at her hyperbolic statement. "Maybe he's keeping you around to get revenge." She suggested. Possible. I wouldn't put it past him. "I didn't know alright!" I exclaimed.
