When Juniper leaned in and got no reaction, she frowned in confusion. What was wrong?
Normally, if she took the initiative like this, the man would be over the moon. Why was he so calm today?
A few seconds later, it dawned on her. Oh, right. She'd forgotten she was disguised as a man. In everyone else's eyes, she was a man. A man trying to kiss him? That was admittedly a bit creepy.
"Shanley..." Juniper licked her lips, her sweet voice a stark contrast to her appearance. "Close your eyes."
Before Shanley could ask why, a hand covered his eyes, and a warm sensation pressed against his lips. It was the familiar taste of Juniper.
After a fleeting touch, Juniper pulled away, a faint blush on her cheeks. "I'm off," she said. She patted down her clothes, shoved her hands in her pockets, and strutted towards the ferry with an audacious swagger.
The audacious girl. She really wasn't afraid of blowing her cover.
"Boss, should I get the ferry ready?" Flint asked respectfully. It was just like last time. Ms. Payne had barely left before the boss was chasing after her.
"Forget it," Shanley said, turning to give Flint a deep look before curving his lips into a helpless smile.
"You're not going?" Flint asked.
"...I don't dare!" Shanley bit out, his fists clenched so tight his knuckles were white.
Felton and Flint exchanged a complicated look. Henpecked? That was their boss, alright.
