In the elevator, Samantha kept checking herself out, and she asked her assistant, “So, how does my body look?”
“Is that a rhetorical question? Great. Guys can’t look away when they see you,” the assistant praised.
Samantha smiled. True. Maybe I can get Ezekiel’s number later and hit on him behind Harmony’s back. She felt accomplished being able to seduce Ezekiel behind Harmony’s back.
There were a few people in the gym. Those who had discipline and those who wanted to sculpt their bodies. Ezekiel was on a treadmill. He was in a gray tracksuit, looking handsome, dashing, and summery.
Samantha fell for him. She had seen many men, but Ezekiel’s body was perfect. She quickly went over to the treadmill Ezekiel was on. Ezekiel looked back, and Samantha pretended to be surprised. “Hi. You’re my friend’s friend, aren’t you? Pleasure seeing you.”
Ezekiel saw through Samantha. She didn’t show up for a workout session; she came for him. “Hello,” said Ezekiel curtly. He turned the treadmill off and tried to leave.
Samantha followed him. “Sir, I don’t really know how to use these gym equipment. Can you teach me?”
Ezekiel said, “I don’t have time.”
Samantha froze. She didn’t expect Ezekiel to be this curt and distant, but she wasn’t one to give up so easily. Quickly, she went after him. “Sir, please. I really need someone’s help.”
Ezekiel was going by a trainer, and he patted the guy’s shoulder. “Mate, this lady needs some help. Can you lend her a hand?”
The trainer looked at Samantha, and he was pleasantly surprised. “How may I help you, miss?”
