_An Uprising

Lorien

~~

Lorien agreed to pay forty thousand instead of the thirty thousand she bargained for because her boldness stunned him.

One minute, she acted like a scared little kitten, and the next, like a full-blown street-wise woman.

When she left, he had a curious smile as he worked on the company's ledgers. However, the more he worked, the more he found his thoughts drifting towards her. Oh, how much he really wanted to play around with her.

He was in his thoughts when Quentin knocked on the door. Lorien didn't need to ask who it was as he could already discern how Quentin knocked after so long.

"Come in!" He called, not looking up from the file he was working on.

"Mr. Montclair," Quentin called as he walked in.
