A bit of shave and a haircut rapped on the doorframe and then I was leaning against it, toothpick rolling back and forth on my lips as I studied the girl with amusement. Kind of perky, in all the right ways. Exactly what I'd want greeting people as they came through the door.
One shoulder lifted in a shrug, even though I didn't break eye contact, and I gave her a slow, crooked little grin. The Jed Walker special, if you will. And I think you will. "Oh, yeah," I said lowly. "You most definitely can."
I let that reverberate between us for a moment, my gaze sliding down her body and then back up to that sweet face. Look, okay, first day on a job might not be the best time to get flirty, but come on! I am only human.
"I'm Jed. Walker." Again that grin, flashed at her as I strode forward and offered her my hand. "Looks like we're working together." Lucky me.
