Chapter 111

Sean

"Your student just blackmailed me," Tristan said as he came into my office and took a seat on the chair in front of my desk.

"Apparently, that s her new thing," I told him.

In seventy-two hours she had managed to become a whole new person. She was bolder, and a lot colder. Was this what Selene had been worried about?

"She got you too?" he asked with a frown.

I snorted. "She wouldn t dare. Plus doing that would look worse on her. She isn t stupid."

"So what s going on between you two?"

Pinching the bridge of my nose, I leaned back on my chair. "I don t know. Why do I even care?"

"You like her."

It wasn t a question, but I still nodded. "I like her. I like her a little too much."

"Are you pursuing her?"

Was I?

"I pursued her, and she rejected me because she wants to be a good lawyer."

"Which makes you like her more."

"Are you getting paid for this time? If so, I really should dock your pay."
