... wasn’t interested in the company of men. Not in the romantic sense at least. Was that why Nora was so into her? Was it just because she was one of the only other openly queer women that Nora encountered on the daily? Even in a big city like New York, it wasn’t always easy to meet other women like her.
No, that wasn’t it.
Everything about Olivia felt tailor-made to suit Nora’s tastes. Granted, she barely knew the woman, and there was no way Olivia even knew Nora’s name, but everything about the way she presented herself drew Nora in. Obviously Nora was enamored with Olivia’s looks. She was exactly Nora’s physical type. But it was the energy that Olivia radiated that really pulled Nora’s focus. The confidence she displayed and the authority she carried was captivating.Damn, I really do have a type, don’t I? Man or woman, she had always had a thing for older, authority figures. All her life, she’d been a tremendous people pleaser. And something about receiving praise and admiration from someone holding power and control over her just made her crumble.

This startled Nora out of her daydream so violently that she jumped, sending her phone flying out of her hand. She shot to her feet in an attempt to catch it, but it plummeted to the ground a few feet from her. She hastily grabbed it off the floor, ignoring the call and silencing the momentary disco party. She sat back in her seat, her heart racing and heat rushing into her cheeks yet again.
As she tried her best to hide behind the head of the man sitting in front of her, she again made eye contact with her boss, David. If he looked pissed before, he was absolutely irate, on the verge of murder, now. His squishy little baby face was pinched into a tight grimace, his normally pasty skin about as red as Nora’s likely was at the moment.
Attempting to avoid David’s scrutiny, Nora shifted her eyes back over to Whitney who didn’t miss a beat during the interruption, expertly continuing on with her presentation while ...
