All Chapters of Sold to Him.: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

ReeseI messaged Brandon to meet me in my office and to get a hold of Anton. He acted offended for about five seconds. I knew he got every phone number to every person associated with Lindsey. He’s actually better at keeping tabs on people than any reporter I have ever come across.I walk into the office past the secretary and two offices that sit before mine. My grandfather likes to keep pretty ladies at the front of the entrance, he says women make everyone feel more comfortable. Personally I think he likes the eye candy and probably has had his fair share of it too. They are like vultures though, with far too much staring and not enough working in my opinion. I converse with them as little as possible. At least getting married will be a good excuse for not talking to them ever. Brandon also does a good job at timing coffee runs and other work that requires them to step away from the desk when I come in. It’s a ridiculous necessity, but a necessity nonetheless.I enter my corn

LindseyWe arrived at the storage unit and Kittie was waiting for us. She walked up to me and gave me a big hug. “It has been too long sweetie! How are you?” It’s a loaded question. She knows about Fabian and his idiocies, but she is also giving me a chance to give her the ‘code word’ to let her know I am here against my will.“I have been great! This last semester really kicked my butt, but I graduated with honors and both of my degrees like I planned.” I smiled at her. “Obviously new things are happening. This is Anton, I have told you about him, and this is Brandon a newly acquired shopping diva, now I have a set.” Kittie and I laughed while both guys tried and failed to look offended by my comments.“Alright let's get you into this unit.”We follow Kittie back towards an older set of storage units. These were smaller and original to the property when she bought it. She lets me store my things here for a nominal f*e. She tried to keep me from paying after she found out Fabian

LindseyLindseyWe get through dinner like last night, just asking questions and trying to figure each other out. He declines having a drink, saying he only does it on special occasions or at work events. I like that he doesn’t have to drink his stress away, he obviously works out in his gym for that.“Would you mind if I joined you for your workout in the morning? I’m really just a cardio bunny and I lift light weights, but it will give me something to look forward to.” I give him a soft smile. I don’t enjoy working out, but I like that working out allows me to have the dessert habit that I do maintain. It’s all about priorities.“I’ve never worked out with anyone before, I don’t know if I’ll be good company.” He says with a grimace.“You don’t have to talk to me, I’m not exactly a morning person, but Angie and I used to hit the gym together and I really won’t go without a partner. It will also give me something to do with you, until you decide what I can actually do and when I c

Reece What the hell just happened.  She’s mad at me again?  What did I do now? She made her declaration about what she was doing today, then walked to the bedroom and I heard the door lock, so there was nothing to talk about or discuss.  At least she included James and Brandon, so I know she’s going to be safe, but she’s planning on arriving when I can’t be there to meet her and she’s going to ‘stay out of my way’ whatever that means. I tried to wait for her to emerge from the room so I could at least ask what I did, but I needed to leave to prepare for this meeting and she was taking her time, I’m sure on purpose.  I scribbled a note for her to call or text me when she got out of the shower and left it with her plate of food on the kitchen island.  I left with an uneasy feeling in my stomach, the butterflies were back, but this time

Lindsey   The day actually went pretty smoothly.  The contract was just as Reece said, he was planning on making improvements, but cutting as little of the employees as possible. I set to work figuring out how to restructure and move people so that everyone would benefit more than be inconvenienced. I made a call to Ralph and let him know what was going on. To say he was surprised was an understatement. “What the hell, Linds? You seriously let your brother talk you into this?” Ralph is basically yelling into the phone, much like a father would at his kid making a rash and very stupid decision.  I’m glad I had it on speaker or my eardrum would have been ruptured. “He didn’t have to say much, Ralph.  He used the company as collateral for som
