Chapter 1

by Tiffany S. Doran

The morning sun was warm on Allison’s face as she made it to the office. She walked to her desk and tucked all of her belongings in the bottom drawer. As she began arranging all of her things, the door opening caught her attention. In walked Markus Kane, one half of the most successful law firms in the county. “Kane and Levi.” He was tall, tanned skin, dark hair, and hazel eyes. The suits that he wore couldn’t do any justice to hiding the muscles she was sure, was hiding underneath. John Levi followed shortly thereafter, carrying two cups of coffee, his briefcase, and folders of paper work neatly situated under his arm.

”Morning Ally.” John said with a smile as he quickly made his way back to his office.

Markus Kane, his office was directly across from where she sat. She watched him every morning. He would come in, set his briefcase on his desk, take off his suit jacket, and toss it haphazardly in the chair beside his bookcase. He had a brown leather sofa pushed up against the wall beside his desk. He says it make his clients feel more comfortable instead of sitting in a hard, uncomfortable chair.

“Almost like a therapist.” He would say.

Nonetheless, she was smitten. Who wouldn’t be though. He’s kind, successful, thoughtful, and can really fill out the suits he wears every day.

”Ally?” Markus called from the door of his office.

”Yes sir.” She answered as she turned from her computer to face him.

“I’ll only be taking calls from Mr. Oliver today. We have a big case coming up and I can’t have any distractions.” Markus said matter of factly.

“Yes sir.” Ally said as she turned back to faced her computer and continued setting up appointments.

Rudy Oliver, runs the bank downtown. They’ve had their run ins with a lot of bounced checks, missing money, and shady employees, and now, all eyes are on him. He’s been accused of stealing money and more devious acts as well. Ally wasn’t sure of all the details but she knows if anyone can get him out of this jam, it’s Markus.
