We'll find out soon enough why he's a germaphobe...before the weekend is over, I promise! Thanks for answering from the last chapter...glad to see that ya'll are reading the others and enjoying them!
I think it's time to meet "Izzy"...well...almost
It was 4:55 and I was pacing in front of the door, my latex gloves already in place for when I would have to touch the knob.
At 5:01 the bell chimed and I sucked in a deep breath.
Now or never, Masen.
Pulling the door open just a few inches, I was taken aback, sure that there was some kind of mistake.
Izzy is a girl's name, is it not?
So why was there a burly man on my doorstep, peering at me expectantly?
He extended his hand, which I ignored.
"Evening Mr. Masen, I'm Demetri. I'm Ms. Swan's security escort for the evening. Normal procedure whenever the girls meet with a new client," he droned, taking his hand back once he realized I was not going to shake it.
"Oh, of course. Is Ms. Swan with you?"
"In the car Sir, waiting for me to do a preliminary walk through and give her the all clear to come up..."
I felt the panic start to set in.
I'd barely prepped myself to let one stranger inside my sanctuary tonight.
And now, I was going to have to allow a second stranger into my home.
