In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO

The phone in her pocket rang. Noticing that the call was from Tobias, she cleared her throat and shoved down her swell of emotions before answering it.

“Send me the address. I’m coming over.”

Just as he had promised, Tobias soon arrived at the police station. The sight of him getting down from his car made Skylar feel as if the earth had finally stopped swaying under her feet.
