August POVThe elevator door opened at last.“Hello—”The sobbing woman pushed her way in, her hands full with a brown box, yet stabbing furiously at the buttons. I barely managed to slip through the sliding doors, clutching my small back purse to my side.“Jesus Christ,” I hissed, turning around. That lady was positively distraught, and for a brief second, I could see a thin layer of hate through her red bloodshot eyes.Focus, August, I thought, slipping my smile back on. This was not the time to be an empath, although all the cells in me were itching to go back to her.No, this was the time to get my dream job.Okay. Maybe that was quite a stretch.I had just seen this job in the newspapers last night after all. My CV was certainly empty, and everything I knew about myself was handed to me on a platter by my beautiful amazing husband who I absolutely adore, Garett.So it was not my dream job, but it was a job.“Hi, I am here for the job interview,” I said, smiling at the receptioni

August’s POVI watched him storm into his office, the large wooden door slamming behind him.
