to receive. It’s all my pleasure to do this for the prez and boss man.

“Ready,” I grin.

“Listen, Erica. This is just a drop. Don’t get crazy.”

I turn to look at Colin. I place a hand over my heart and feign shock. He rolls his eyes at me.

“When do I ever get crazy?”

He barks out a laugh. “You were born crazy, baby. Now get your ass out there and deliver your gift. It’s hot and I want to get back home tonight.”

“Fine,” I mumble and step out of the car.

I get the box from the back seat and turn to walk to the front gate. My lips turn up as the guys outside the gate are too busy checking me out to realize how close to danger they are. I want it that way. The leather miniskirt and thigh-high boots are doing their job perfectly.

I wink at one of them and lick my lips. His grin grows and he looks around at his friends like a showoff. He poofs his chest out and adjusts himself. I laugh to myself.

I’d eat him alive.

“Hey, boys. You get this to your boss for me. Let him know I’ll come back here anytime he wants,” I purr in Spanish.

I hand over the box and turn to skip my way back to the Jeep. I’m sure they’re watching my tiny skirt bounce as it barely covers my ass. That will give me the distraction I need to get back to the car before they realize what I’ve given them and I have to end a few lives.

Shame. That would be so much fun.

“Let’s go,” I say as I half hang out of the car.

Grim takes off as I slam the door shut. Our job is done.

I turn to him and grin. “I hope Miguel likes his head served on a platter.” We both burst into laughter.

Forever

A month and a half later…

I watch Eva as she takes notes on her tablet while we do this walk through. She has no idea this will be our new Soul Deep Architecture and Construction headquarters here in North Carolina. She thinks it’s only another site I’ll be finishing off.

The original developer lost his funding and had to pull out. I picked it up for a steal. It’s still early enough in the project where I can put my own spin on it. Including a nursery for the staff.

I grin as I drop my gaze to Eva’s belly. She’s still not showing yet. However, I’ve woken every morning for the last few weeks with my hand pressed to where her little bump will be.

“What do you think?” I ask as she looks up from her tablet, her eyes distant as if she’s already redesigning the floor plan.

“It’s a great location and with a few tweaks you can totally make the final design your own. I have a few ideas if you want to hear them,” she says and bites her lip.

Still shy, but she’s grown so much. I think she’ll be ready to take over before the year is up. The workers love and respect her already.

“Come show me what you’re thinking.” I wave her over.

As I thought, she has the plans open on her tablet, already laying out her ideas alongside the list she’d been making for me. I’m going to miss working together like this. It’s my hope that I’ll get all the club shit settled so I can spend time in the office working with her.

Either way, Eva will do great. She has a mind for detail. With time she’ll have the confidence to match.

I point to the tablet. “I like this, but let’s move this and I’m thinking about an apartment over our office,” I say and look up through my lashes to watch her reaction.

Her mouth forms an O shape, and she furrows her brows. It takes only a few seconds before I see it sink in. She looks around the space and turns in a circle.

“This is the new office,” she breathes.

“It’s been official since this morning,” I say and grin.

“Oh, wow, this place is huge. It’s bigger than the Georgia building. Wow.”

I wrap my arms around her. “It’s going to be all yours. Are you ready for that?”

“Wait, what?”

I chuckle. “We talked about this. You’re training to run Soul Deep. You’re going to take over for me.”

“I was half asleep when you started that conversation, and you were rubbing my feet. I was fully asleep before you got more than two sentences out,”
