In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO

Skylar fumbled for the light switch as she got home at dawn. The expensive furnishings did nothing to mask her loneliness in such a big and empty house.

Skylar would always take a shower and head to bed once she got home. As long as Tobias was not around, she would not enter his study.
