In this snippet of Queen Bitch of the Callowwood Pack, Jeff hasn't seen Julianna since the party, and he's been going a little nuts. He has just offered her a job at his bar, but she's not convinced the job is real, though he assures her it is.
“Should I send
you my resume and other credentials so you can make it official without it
looking like you’re just trying to get into my pants?”
Did she really just say
that?
Be honest, you do want to get into her pants, Jeff's Brother quipped.
Yeah, but that’s not why I offered her the job.
Oh yeah, why then?
To
keep her close and see her every day without making it obvious that I’m
favoring her over the others.
Oh, Jeff's got it bad. :D Thanks so much for stopping by. There several very good authors on the Six Sentence Sunday list and a few of my favorites are Cara Bristol, Dianne Hartsock, Goran Zidar, Zee Monodee, Karla Doyle, Gem Sivad, and Sarah Ballance. Happy reading! :)
Lovely complications. :)
ReplyDeleteNice contrast between the explicit dialogue and the inner dialogue.
ReplyDeleteWow! There is a lot going on here. I really like her directness and his inner turmoil.
ReplyDeleteYep, he's got it bad, but I love how he also wants to keep her close, in a protective way. Very nice six, Siobhan.
ReplyDeleteLOL He does have it bad. Great six! :)
ReplyDeleteI take it you're using italics for telepathic speech? And he's not telepathic with her (at least not yet?) Be kind of awkward if she "hears" him.
ReplyDeleteThe dialogue between his mind and his Brother is painfully hilarious throughout the book. I enjoyed how tactful Jeff was, but he knew what he wanted and would get it eventually. Great six. Gives inner monologue another name.
ReplyDeleteJeff is a smart wolf, but I have the feeling his brother is really going to complicate things. I love how blunt Julianna is. Fun six today!
ReplyDelete...in other words the foreplay to getting into her pants. LOL Terrific six, Siobhan!
ReplyDeleteI think he really does want to get into her pants!
ReplyDeleteIntersting six! Wonder if she's going to take the job or not. And Jeff's brother might be a problem. Can't wait to see what happens next!
ReplyDeleteJeff does have it bad. Sooo... does she take the job or not? I know, I know, I must pick up the book and find out. You're too evil. :)
ReplyDeleteI've always been very fond of ulterior motives, especially when the characters are barely aware they exist. Very nice job. I'm loving this story.
ReplyDeleteCute 6! Love their byplay and his rationalizing!!
ReplyDeleteNothing wrong with ulterior motives. Heh heh. ;)
ReplyDeleteUmmm - hang on - Jeff's communicating telepathically with his brother? If so - LOL, I think Jeff is protesting too much.
ReplyDeleteGreat six. Can't wait to see what happens next.
ReplyDeleteLOL! I love how he wants to watch over her.
