Jim reached over and placed a finger under her chin, making sure she was looking at him. “I’m holding you to that Lottie. You may be a pain in the ass, but for some reason I like you anyway.” He held it for a moment longer before shifting back in his seat again so he could take another long drink from his own, the alcohol starting to numb the pain in his back which had been drawing most of his attention.
Lottie couldn’t help but meet his gaze as he forced her chin up. The action gave her a jolt but also left her in no doubt that she would have to do as she was told. “Yes Sir,” she replied quickly, her stomach flipping at that brief moment of dominance. Lottie made no attempt to move her head until he let go of her chin and she slid back in her own seat and took another drink. “Now we’re done with me you can tell me what you’ve been up to?” she said after a few moments silence, the cheeky grin back on her face.
