Aiden's POV
The day had already been packed with meetings, deadlines, and people who couldn't seem to understand simple instructions. So, naturally, the universe decided to throw one more irritation my way.
We were speeding through the city, the rain blurring the world outside my tinted windows, when Tobias suddenly slammed on the brakes, causing my coffee to slosh dangerously close to my custom-tailored suit.
"Tobias," I snapped, setting the cup down with calculated precision, "why are we stopping?"
Before he could stammer out an answer, I glanced through the windshield to see the problem. A girl. Early twenty, bedraggled, and currently standing in the middle of the street, staring at my car like a deer caught in headlights.
The horn blared. She didn't move. Instead, she seemed to be lost in her own head. Fantastic.
