Oh for fuck’s sake.
Well, she was changing that tomorrow . . . today . . . fuck, yesterday, now that—
“Go away, Luke,” she said, pushing past him and unlocking her door while blocking his view of the keypad that was identical to that of the elevator. Her front door’s code was not the date of her anniversary with her ex.
But Luke probably already knew that, given that he had been sitting on the floor of her hallway rather than on her couch, beer in hand, feet making prints on her glass coffee table.
Men.
Fucking men.
She slammed the door closed behind her and threw the dead bolt. The knock approximately one second later did not surprise her. Bec dropped her briefcase to the floor then opened it just enough to shoot angry eyes at him through the narrow gap the dead bolt allowed.
Serious green eyes fixed onto hers. “We need to talk.”
“Luke,” she snapped. “I’m exhausted. It’s the middle of the night. I wouldn’t have any patience to talk to my best friends right now, let alone my ex-husband.”
“Funny story about that,” he said, his lips curving. “Turns out that I’m not actually your ex-husband.”

Seraphina
Sera was alone, pining after a man who’d created the latest social media craze.
Yup. Her life was ah-maz-ing.
Tate cleared his throat, and Sera realized she’d been staring at him dumbfounded for a good couple of minutes.
“How can I help you today?” she asked. “I do hope”—Do hope? What was she, British? Ugh.—“I-uh . . . I hope you were able to find a house. The agents I passed along are very good at finding unique properties, and I even gave them a few locations to start with . . . ” She bit her lip, attempting to stop the ramble.
“No.”
Just no.
Um. Okay.
Sera sucked in a breath, popped to her feet.
“Ah. I’m sorry.” She picked up a random file, pretending to know what was in it. “I’m actually really busy, so this will have to continue another time.”
Like never.
She rounded her desk, forced a smile. “Mr. Conner,” she said when he didn’t move. “I’ll have my assistant schedule something soon.”
“Seraphina.”
She shivered at the sound of her name on his lips—soft, a little raspy, and deep enough to conjure all sorts of unhelpful fantasies in her mind.
Shaking herself, she moved to open the door.
Suddenly, Tate was there, hand on hers, body inches away, spicy scent inundating her senses.
Sera’s breath caught. “What are you—?”
He seemed to be arguing with himself then finally, those piercing blue eyes locked onto hers. “I need you to marry me.”
