Summary

"Indeed, we should see," Forthcoming goes to a board behind him, scratching his head as Sebastian sits up, taking a gander at the board over his ex partners shoulder. He had left the cop scene years back, when his significant other had requested he thought about his future. He had thought about it, and left her and the work. The two of which had depleted him to excess. 
Presently he was a College teacher with a couple of additional gigs as an afterthought, and he was unable to be more satisfied. 
"So one was conveying a pizza?" 
"That's right. The individual arranged it at nine fifteen pm, the food was conveyed at ten 21. So she was killed after that time however before eleven pm, when her manager said she didn't return to complete her day of work." 
"An hour and six minutes to convey a pizza?" 
Plain moaned, prior to shaking his head. 
"You're overlooking what's really important. So she was killed after ten 21 pm, however the other casualty, who was coming back from the bar, was killed after eleven pm. We know this since we saw her on CCTV heading back home with her companion at ten 59." 
"Who was her companion?" 
Straightforward scowls as he shrugs, prior to shading somewhat. 
"She hasn't approached." 
"So who was she out with? Certainly she was found in the bar with this other young lady?" 
Sebastian drums his fingers on the work area before him before Straight to the point shakes his head.

Satisfied

Anonymous

“Be quiet and observe. If you find you can’t manage anything, face me 
and we’ll leave quietly. And, Lois? If you ever give your Dom a look like 
you gave me, especially in front of another Dom, your ass would get 
paddled red. And maybe not in private.” 
Holy crap. Respect. No bratty behavior. Lots to remember. Surely getting 
aroused at the very thought was twisted. The fictitious Dom she imagined 
paddling her ass closely resembled Master Trevor. She might be getting 
ahead of herself, but she felt considerably attracted to him. Probably the 
ambience. She nodded her understanding, and Graham straightened. She 
really wasn’t sure about this scene thing. She understood, intellectually, 
about erotic pain releasing a mixture of endorphins and enhancing 
pleasure. She reacted sexually to the idea of being restrained and at the 
sensual mercy of a trusted man. Or two. Yessir, two. Lois Wright obviously 
was making up for lost time.

Just His Barista - A Sweet...

Elana Johnson

She's just his barista...until she buys into Legacy Brew as a co-owner. Then she's Coy's business partner and the source of his five-year-long crush. But after they share a kiss one night, Macie's seriously considering mixing business and pleasure.
Macie: Coy Cochran and I have never gotten along all that well. His daddy hired me a decade ago at their family coffee shop, and I've grown to love the place. Now that Coy's dad is gone, he's more than determined than ever to carry on the family owned and operated café.
I'm the brains and beauty at the shop, but Coy won't listen to me—until I have money in the game too. Now that we're business partners, we get along slightly better. Slightly.
He's still surly and full of bark, and while I like animals, I tend to stay away from the human ones that demand to see me in their office over a little spilled sugar.
I can handle working with Coy. It's the "not working" that's been plaguing me. See, we had this...well, I call it The Kissing Incident—a single kiss, months ago, in a moment of extreme distress.
Too bad I told him it was a mistake and couldn't happen again. Double-too-bad that it was the best kiss of my life and triple-too-bad that I can't stop thinking about it. Him. I can't stop thinking about him.
And now my best friend's wedding is coming up, and I don't have a date. So I post on my social media, asking if anyone in Charleston would be willing to spend a few hours with me, drinking, dining, and dancing the night away. No strings attached. No boyfriend status required.
When Coy texts me, saying he'll be my date, I'm torn. I definitely want to go out with him, but the wedding isn't for seven more weeks. And I want that boyfriend status with him, so I tell him we should give a relationship a test drive.
Oh, and bonus: I'll have to continue working with him day in and day out too.
