Ben's heart thudded with the breathless need to see Rita after more than four months. He rushed up the flight of stairs and had to pant through his mouth to catch his breath. Controlling himself, he knocked a few times and frowned when she did not open up as fast as he would have liked. He was tempted to full on bang on her door when she still had not opened up at his knocks. It was nine in the morning and he knew she was not at the office because he had called James to find out.
His attitude was stalkerish, Ben knew this. However, this was Rita. Ben came back to this town for her. It was not about the company. It was about coming to lay claim on his woman.
