Olivia
The car fell silent as we drove through the streets of Los Angeles, the city lights blurring past the windows. I studied Alexander’s profile, the strong jaw, and straight nose, wondering why he’d stopped to help us. Everything I’d heard about him at work painted him as cold, distant, focused only on the bottom line.
We reached Emilia’s apartment building first. Alexander pulled up to the curb, the engine purring quietly as he shifted into park.
“This is me,” Emilia announced, gathering her purse. She leaned over to hug me, using the moment to whisper in my car. “Holy fuck, Liv. He’s hot as balls. If he wants to bang you senseless tonight, you better fucking do it. The best way to get over Ryan is to get under the CEO. Shit, those hands look like they know what they’re doing.”
I pulled back, shooting her a death glare that could have melted steel.
“What?” she mouthed innocently before turning to Alexander. “Thanks for the ride, knight in shining Armani. You’re a lifesaver.”
“It was no trouble,” he replied politely.
Emilia opened the door, then paused to give me one last meaningful look. “Call me tomorrow with ALL the details.” She waggled her eyebrows suggestively.
“Goodbye, Emilia,” I said firmly, my cheeks burning.
She blew me a kiss and slammed the door, sauntering toward her building with a little extra sway in her hips, no doubt for Alexander’s benefit.
As we pulled away, I sank deeper into the leather seat, mortified. “I’m so sorry about her. She has no filter.”
Alexander’s eyes met mine in the rearview mirror. “No need to apologize. She seems like a good friend.”
“The best,” I admitted. “Even if she occasionally makes me want to strangle her.”
His lips quirked upward, almost a smile but not quite. “Those are often the best kinds of friends.”
