Bethany's POV
My alarm clock sounds waking me from my slumber. I smack the top making it stop and sit up bleary eyed. I rub my eyes and then stretch trying to wake up. I barely remember Jason coming by last night, but I'm pretty sure he did. I stumble out of bed and jump in the shower to clean the sweat from my body and get ready for my day. Once dressed I head out into my kitchen to find me some breakfast. I see a note on the table and stop and pick it up.
"Bethany, I had an emergency with a client this morning. It was really early, and I didn't want to wake you. Don't worry I know how to take my own notes. Anyway, I left a stack of papers at your desk and my appointment book. If you take care of that I will see you later today. I'm not sure how long my meeting will take. Also, when I get back the insurance doctor needs to get some blood from you. See you soon. With Love, Jason." Ok so I'm on my own for awhile today. No big deal. I quickly eat then head to my car. Once at the office I see Mrs. White poke her head up from her desk.
"I see you are still here. That's good."
"So far so good. I'll see you later Mrs. White." I say waving and jumping on the elevator to ride to the tenth floor. Stepping out I head to my little office and grab the stack of papers and get to work. As lunch rolls around I just finished with the stack and decide to stand up and stretch taking a quick break before making all the calls needs to book appointments. Grabbing my pocketbook, I head to the elevator to run and get me something to eat. The elevator dings and the doors slide open revealing Mr. Walker.

"Ah great caught you just in time. I brought you some lunch. Come to my office and fill me in on your day while we eat." I nod and follow him to his office. He motions for me to sit on the couch and he sits beside me. He pulls out my favorite Chinese food. How does he know what I like?
"Wow thanks Mr. Walker I love Chinese. How did you know?" he smiled that damn sexy smile that has my core clenching. Damn it Bethany get your act together.
"I saw you had the menu on your fridge this morning when I dropped the note off and took a chance." Ok not what I thought. I forgot I had that menu. We sit and eat while I fill him in on the stack of paper and that I am about to make all of his appointments after we eat. He nods and listens smiling every once in a while. Just as I was finishing lunch a knock on the door comes. "Come in." Mr. Walker calls out. A man in a lab coat walks in with what looks to be all the stuff to draw some blood. "Ah yes Mr. Curt is here to draw some blood for the insurance company. We all have to do it when we first get hired." I nod my head and agree. I hate getting blood drawn but hey if I have to I will. The man walks over to me and takes my arm applying the tourniquet then cleans my arm with alcohol before sliding the needle into my vein. I watch as my arm pumps the blood out filling the tube quickly. After he finished, he applied a band aid and left the way he came.

"Well, that was easy." I say smiling at Mr. Walker. "Now if you'll excuse me, I have appointments to arrange. I walk back to my desk and start making calls. After a few hours I lean back in my chair with my eyes closed feeling exhausted. When I open my eyes, I nearly fall out of my chair seeing Mr. Walker standing in the doorway staring at me.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you Bethany." He gives me that damn panty dropping smile that sets my heart to flying. "I just want to see if you were almost done. You looked so peaceful that I didn't want to say anything till you opened your eyes." He crosses his arms over his chest making his muscles flex and strain against his shirt.
"Oh y-yeah I'm finished. I just needed to close my eyes for a second." I stutter out as my heart flies in my chest. I watch as he walks over and takes the seat in front of my desk leaning back and crossing his leg placing his ankle on his knee his hands he places behind his head. He looks like a damn Greek God. My damn mind starts racing with all the things I would like to do with him. I shake my head and mentally slap myself. He is your boss! "Ummm did you need something Mr. Walker?" He smiles even bigger showing his dimples. Holy Hell he is hot!
"I actually need you to come to a dinner with me tonight."
"Is it a work dinner?"
"Sorta, I told you if I don't have a date you might have to go with me. I have a dress already picked out for you and it's being dropped off at my house as we speak." I nod my head and wait for him to go on. "I have to see a few work friends of mine and I can't go without a date since they are already married. You understand don't you."
"Ok fine. What time is the dinner?"
"Eight tonight. If you have everything finished, you may head on home to get ready." I watch as he pulls a key from his pocket and slides it over to me. "The key to my house so you can get the dress." He stands up and walks to the door. "See you at seven thirty Bethany." He winks and heads back to his office. Well, I better head home and see what kind of dress he has picked out and get ready. I gather my stuff and head to the elevator heading for home.

8 184Let Me Explore The Interstellar in Peace
Her third life began unlike her last two. From an ancient battle field to the magical interstellar, Ciel was finally going to live her life how she wanted to: freely exploring the new world. But she'll soon find that a brewing war between galaxies won't let her rest easy. He awoke to find himself one thousand years in the future, but the first thing on his mind wasn't the new technology around him. It was the woman he'd seen die in the battlefield just days before. Her, the prince of the interstellar and he, their genius. What will happen when they cross paths? Updates: Expect updates at least once a week. A/N: The first three chapters are set in an ancient setting and then after that it's interstellar, so some patience is required. Does this novel have comedy? Yes. But that's not the main part. What went into the cauldron of whatever this novel is was angst, age progression, and Technoids. I like to kill off my characters, but I also don't. So come check this out if you want redemption arcs, an MC who travels through death, and cool fighting robots controlled by people. We have friendship, romance, and random drama, so buckle up and have fun.
