LOGINEPILOGUE “Go, go, go!” Sebastian screamed from next to me, standing and leaning over the person in front of him as if Ben could hear him over the crowd and the glass. Then again, with how loud the man was, he just might. I had only known Bash in passing from when I worked for Ben as his assista
HAVEN ONE MONTH LATER My eyes kept moving from the woman before me to the clock on the wall behind her. I wanted to be here, but I had more important places to be. She had run over with her last client, which made us run over and caused me to be late for an important game. Ben had been stressin
BEN Haven was empty for the next few weeks as she flew back and forth, cleaning out the house her ex-husband had left her. It had been Cynthia’s home, too, and Haven had been taking extra care and devotion to ensuring things were handled and gone through properly. I had gone with her a few times,

HAVEN I could hear my blood pumping in my ears as I read and reread his name on my chart. Benjamin Evans. My boss Suzie told me we had a VIP client arriving today, but I didn't know who. All I knew was that Mr. Kingston was sending someone important in and that we were instructed to give
BEN I couldn’t count the number of times I had dreamed of putting a ring on Haven Lynch. At one point… close to the end, I had thought it would actually be possible. I was a fool. Haven cleared her throat, discretely tucking the necklace away before brushing her short blonde hair behind her ea
BEN “I’m feeling tired and would love to turn in. If you leave my schedule with me, I will review it and explore the facility another time.” I said as calmly as possible, even though I was annoyed beyond belief that she was here.
