Aiden had gone to the convenience store across the street to get a candy bar that would help fuel him as he worked after-hours sifting through files he lifted off of some of the company executives' computers on Aaron's orders.
He was well paid for his efforts but he would still rather be playing his favorite MMORPG. His in-game wife, Nova Lundstrom, was beautiful and had a great sense of humor.
Unfortunately, she also lived in Sweden. They video chatted from time to time but there didn't seem to be a real future between them since Aiden was a New Yorker for life.
Love was on his mind as he headed back to his apartment but he certainly hadn't expected to run into his boss's love in the arms of another man in the elevator. He may have acted a bit defensively but he felt sorry for Aaron. The poor guy was obsessed with Keeley Hall and she didn't seem to give him the time of day.
