Wanted Always (Xander Barns) (25 page)

Xander carries trouble with him, but he
also carries something else, something life changing. And that is a job that
pays
a lot
.

But what about Liam? I promised him I’d
stay away from Xander.

Yeah, well he also finger fucked me in the
bathroom, then ditched me without another word. So I think it’s safe to say
that I don’t owe him shit.

What other options do I have? I have no
university degree, no trade skills. I can become a manager at 4Scoops, but that
will take years. Living in downtown Toronto is expensive; my savings are
dwindling down as each month passes.

It could be life changing. And it wouldn’t
have to be forever, just until I save enough to get me by without having to
work shitty jobs. Just until I find out what I really want to do with my life,
which I have no idea right at this moment. If I became Xander’s personal
assistant, the life I have now will change forever.

There will be no going back.
I ponder for a few seconds before opening
and typing a new message.

I accept.

I
hesitate before pressing send.
This is it, the moment that will change everything.

Can I handle it? I mean, how bad could it
be?

Taking a giant breath, I press send.

Here goes nothing!
