SAMANTHA
One could use a knife to cut through the tension in this room. That was how I felt walking into my office and finding Adrian seated in my chair cross-legged and spinning.
My first instinct was to bolt for the door. Today was the perfect day for him to ambush me because earlier I lured The bodyguard Luca assigned to me away on accounts that I needed him to get me some supplies at a faraway location.
He wouldn't be back for at least 3 hours and that's if he experienced zero hitches along the way.
He declined at first but I threatened to make sure he lost his job since he was disobeying his boss's wife. Of course, I wasn't going to do that but it was worth a shot.
It worked because he sighed and left almost immediately, taking the car with him. Walking into my office, I felt instant regret because now I had nowhere to run and no one to help me should this beast in my office attempt anything rash.
