After the exhausting photo shoot, Axel did everything in his power to avoid Jayvaughn. He didn't trust what might happen if the two of them were left alone again, not after the way things had escalated earlier. Kissing Jayvaughn once was unexpected. Twice? Dangerous. Especially when they were behind closed doors with no interruptions. So, Axel lingered around the company building, wandering aimlessly from one floor to another, pretending to be busy. He scrolled through his phone, stared out windows, visited the cafeteria without ordering anything—anything to avoid running into Jayvaughn. It wasn't until the sun began to dip low in the sky that Axel finally made his way down to the ground floor, silently hoping that Jayvaughn had already left.
But as fate would have it, the moment Axel stepped outside, a sleek black car rolled up in front of him and stopped with a quiet screech. The tinted window slowly rolled down, revealing Jayvaughn's clearly displeased expression.
