I finished the first of two scenes in the meet cute sequence 🥳 There’s some clunky stuff in there, but some parts I love. The interaction between Elle and Adam just makes me want to run around going EEEEEEEEEE all day.
I added another 1294 new words to Running The Asset‘s manuscript! The story now sits at 8,727 words total.
Here’s a wee snippet of what’s got me going all gooey about this couple (rough and unedited):
He screwed a silencer onto the end of the gun and leaned forward in the chair, the unforgiving weapon cradled so casually in his hand like it was an extension of his being. “I’m of two minds as to whether I should remove the gag or not.” He scrubbed a hand over his jaw, then grimaced. “You look the gabby sort, and I don’t like to be interrupted.”
Elle shook her head, hoping he’d understand that she wouldn’t interrupt him. She got the sense that interrupting him would be a deadly mistake.
He tilted his head. “Are you saying you’ll behave?”
Not on your life, buddy. She bit her tongue and nodded.
“I’m going to remove the gag, but if I get the slightest hint that you’re going to scream or try to bite me again,” he tapped her knee with the end of the silencer, “I’ll give you something to scream about.”
Thanks for joining me on this adventure! Stay safe.
