《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.

Confessions of the Magpie Wizard
In a dark future, the demonic Grim Horde rules most of the Earth, and Britain has just fallen. The last survivor of the island is the young wizard Soren Marlowe, the newest student at the Nagoya Academy of Magic. To all appearances, he is a normal enough young man, if a little girl crazy. Little do they know that he's an exiled devil, one of the very same demons who helped destroy the fallen island! Now thrust into the middle of someone else's romantic comedy, Soren will need to think fast to keep his secret and, just maybe, find a little romance. Note: I used to have the Mature tag on this story, until I realized that I was never going to go past about a PG-13 or light R rating.

A horse ranch. That's where I lived at least. I know, not very exciting to those of you who don't care for this life or think it's all about work. But let me tell you, you're actually quite wrong. It's a very exciting job and the best part is is that I get to work with one of my favorite animals every day. Horses. I know I wouldn't want to have any other life than this.One night though, everything changed. I had gotten lost somewhere in the woods in the middle of the mountains with my horse Storm. Usually I knew exactly where I was going and where I was but my horse had gotten spooked and raced far into the mountains. I tried slowing Storm down but he wouldn't. I became lost with no idea where to go and that's when he showed up. He claimed that I was his mate and I was to be his forever.Thinking he was crazy, I turned Storm around to start running but imagine my surprise when he raced ahead of me and changed into a wolf right in front of my eyes. Effectively kidnapping me and taking me with him to his home, or prison I might say.This is my story and what happened when I was taken by the Alpha.
