《Allure.》Chapter 11
Advertisement
My alarm starts ringing. Its 6am already, how is that even possible. I still can't believe how exhausted I am from the weekend. I really am showing my age with this multiple day hangover.
I dwell in bed for about 5 minutes before I throw the covers back and put on my workout gear. I always run in the morning. Its great for waking me up and getting me going.
I put my leggings, sports bra and runners on. I try to be quiet because I know Ray is still asleep. That girl docent wake before 10am and thats on a good day!
I grab my iPod and head out. Im working up a serious sweat I ran nearly 5 kms already. As the sun starts to rise I can't get the thoughts of Ryker out of my head. I wish I had gotten his number or given him mine. I go through a million what if scenarios in my head. What is it about this guy? I just can't seem to shake him.
When I arrive back at my apartment I realise I need to forget about it and move on. I mean technically I am still on the rebound from Carter right? Even though I haven't thought about him for over a month. It still counts yeah?
I jump in the shower and get ready for work.
I pick out a black pencil skirt, white blouse and nude heels.
Very appropriate I nod as I see my reflection. I pull my hair up into a ballerina bun and apply natural but professional make up. Wow I look like a real lawyer.
Im waiting in the reception area of Stein & Beckett. When again I begin day dreaming about Ryker. His sandy blond hair, his piercing blue eyes and his sweet lips. His kisses were heavenly .

Im quickly interrupted and snapped back to reality when I hear someone calling me name. "Ms Perry. Ms Savannah Perry"
Oh crap "Thats me" I say a little embarrassed.
"Come through please. Follow me"
I get a wonderful tour of the office and finally I am dropped off at the IT Department where I receive a laptop, iPad, blackberry and all my login information.
I head back to my small office and immediately a man walks in.
"Walter Stein" he says as h nods in my direction
"Pleasure to meet you Mr Stein" I reply
"Please call me Walt" I nod in response
"So the main things you will be doing at the moment are general administrative tasks; filing, discovery and research. Eventually though I'll have you sit in on my cases and then hopefully in 6-8 months time you'll be taking your own cases. Well thats the plan anyway.
"Sounds great sir" I reply "Thank you so much for such a wonderful opportunity"
He places a stack of files on my desk
"I believe we should be thanking you. With an academic record like yours we were surprise you applied at such a small firm Savannah. Anyway...I need you to go through these and flag anything suspicious or that doesn't add up.
"Not a problem sir. Im all over it"
By 6.30pm Im still only halfway through the stack of files and I have uncovered nothing.
I decide to pack up the rest and head home. Im utterly exhausted. This isn't what I imagined doing after i graduated but I try and remind myself that it was only my first day.

RE: DEVTHOR
From a certain author's perspective, the world he lived in had always been a boring uninteresting place. If asked if he could name one good thing about it, he probably couldn't. Up until forty, he lived in complete isolation and solitude, but he never once regretted or felt dissatisfied about the kind of life he lived. But despite being content with such a lifestyle, it seems some god... or perhaps some busybody devil galavanting about playing pretend god was immensely dissatisfied with the way he lived his life and wanted to play a sick joke on him by sending him back to his first day in high school after he died a mysterious death. Approached by a suspicious red-haired girl shortly after awakening and recognizing where he was, he's abruptly given a second chance at a youth filled with romance. But what does this forty years old man turned sixteen do when confronted with youth? He flips youth off and tells it to take a hike, he's having none of it. If there was some sort of godly existence watching over him from somewhere unknown, their only natural reaction would be to facepalm and question what was wrong with this incompetent romanceless idiot who knew nothing of love. Low fantasy only really starts to appear around volume 3. Presently there are 7 volumes for this series totaling about 850k words.
