---- Book 1 Chapter 2 make the rest of his hair fall out, she said in a rushed, hushed voice. Thung up, pocketing my phone. I had been working for Colten enterprises, a well-known tech company, and I was barely hanging onto my job thanks to Troy. I continued fiddling with the clasp on my shoes when I felt my ass brush against something before a hand touched my side under my blouse, making me jump as a strange static sensation ran over my side and up my ribs where his hand came in contact with my skin under my blouse. A squeaking sound left my lips. I hadn't noticed another man in the elevator in my haste, and I was very embarrassingly brushing my ass against him, practically sitting on the mans lap. Awkward! Sorry, I squeaked out, and he dropped his hand back to his side, his hand clenched tightly. Mate, I thought I heard him mutter, making me look to the man on the other side of me before realizing he must have been talking to him, and I had rudely shoved between them. But that was not all; I recognized him as the man I had flipped off. Maybe he didnt recognize me; I prayed he didnt. They were clearly high up the chain with how they were 3/6 ---- Book 1 Chapter 2 dressed. Clearly, both were important, but that wasnt what made me nervous. It was the blood-red color of the mans eyes I didn't realize I was practically sitting on as I did up my shoes. His gaze lingered like he was looking at a piece of meat he wanted to rip into. I shrank under his gaze, wishing the elevator would hurry up. Praying I'd get out of this elevator without them recognizing me for cutting them off and my rude hand gesture. The red-eyed man had some serious serial-killer vibes going on. He was gorgeous, and my god, was he tall. I was short, not midget-short, but short. I knew that. But both were towering over me by at least two feet. His glare made me a little uneasy as I moved over toward the doors, giving him more space and trying to melt into the stainless-steel walls of the tin can we were stuck in together. However, the other man was looking anywhere but at me: looking at the ceiling as if something interesting had captured his attention before he suddenly looked down, catching me staring. He had dark-brown eyes, so dark they almost looked black. If it weren't for the light, I wouldn't have noticed the flecks of caramel in them. His lips tugged up into a smirk as he ran his 4/6 ---- Book 1 Chapter 2 eyes up and down my length, making me hop from one foot to another awkwardly. Was it hot in here? My temperature was rising dramatically. Turning to the other man, he was staring at me still; his red eyes were creeping me the fuck out. I pulled at the collar of my blouse, feeling like it was slowly strangling me, a bead of sweat running down the nape of my neck. Of course, I had to become trapped 1n the dinosaur elevator; the thing was so goddamn slow. I knew I should have run for the other one. At least then, I wouldnt have been suffering under their deadly watchful eyes. Nice contact lenses, I said awkwardly, trying to break the strange tension when he continued to stare. His lips turned up in a smirk, his eyes flickering oddly, making me jump and press closer to the wall, his eyes taking on more of a predator-watching-its- prey vibe. I stepped away to the side, bumping into the man with brown eyes and the gray suit. His hand went to my hip, holding me steady, his hand warm and also electrocuting me. What was up with this pair of creeps? I must be seeing shit. What was in that coffee I had this morning? He continued to stare, though he wasnt as tense now. Okay, then, silent and creepy. But hot as fuck with 5/6 ---- Book 1 Chapter 2 his five o'clock shadow and dark hair. He was wide, too. His tailored suit did nothing to hide the bulk of muscle it covered, both of them huge next to my small frame, and I felt like a deer in headlights as I was squished between them. I stepped forward when I realized I was still pressed tight against the man behind me. The heat of his body so close seeped into my back, warming me. The door dinged, and I turned around and rushed out before it even opened fully, needing to escape the men I was trapped with, my heart pounding in my chest as I escaped their watchful gaze.
