Chapter 28: Shock

***Tamara***

'That was totally unwarranted Ryker. ' I massaged my temple a little aggressively.

'She asked for it Tamara.' He continued perusing a file that was on his desk, totally writing off my argument.

'Ryker you know you were a little too draconian on her. ' I sighed in defeat, his eyes remaining fixed on the file contents.

'Tamara, if you have nothing else to say then give me some peace to sort out these treaties. ' He didn't lift his face to look at me, no, he only waved his hands in a perfunctory manner.

'Fine. ' I sat there staring at him like a creep. His eyebrows would crease whenever he was in deep thoughts. I noticed how often he would lick his lower lip while he wrote something down. He would squint his eyes whenever something didn't appeal to him and once in a while he even scoffed at some stupid treaty I presumed.

'Will you sit there all day looking at me? ' I bet his instincts were always quite on point.
