Option? What the hell?

“You have an stated, uncomfortable now

“The situation seems to stem froether” Alex stated flatly “It doesn’t appear to be going away, so we had to come up with a plan Unless you tellit quits, I think this is our only option”

“That’s not about to happen, so I hope you’ve got a good plan”

“As you probably already know, Logan,” Xavier began, “I’m very fond of Samantha and don’t want to lose her expertise here at XTX, so Alex and I have discussed what options we have of keeping her and you, eh they don’t have the same opportunities Sah, we did tell Larry and Abigail they were free to ask you out anytilared back at him, not able to find humor in the situation “What are the options?”

“Dylan and I have discussed –” Alex started, but was interrupted

“Dylan? What the hell does Dylan have to do with this?” Logan looked at one man then back to the other

“Since the last time we talked, Dylan has decided to relocate back to Dallas, mostly because Stacey was accepted to UTD, but also because he’s decided to go into business with Alex”

Logan looked to Alex for confirree that Sam is a tremendous asset to XTX and in order to keep her employed on the current project as well as to have her expertise in other areas, we’re willing to offer her a comparable position with CISS”

Alex had worked for years to build his security agency froround up He owned and operated the fire, if Alex was serious, he would be able to offer Sa the ranks, Logan was comfortable they’d be able to take the company to the next level To this point, they’d embedded inside of XTX and only offered soan knew Alex wasn’t hurting for business

As good of an opportunity as this presented for Saan didn’t think she’d see it that way

“What’s the catch?” Logan asked as he kept his gaze on Alex

“No catch Actually, ould formally hire her and then contract her out to XTX for the reer, rather she would report directly in to Xavier” Alex colanced back at Xavier to see thequietly, his face expressionless as he waited for Logan’s input The strange thing was, this was actually a brilliant idea, provided CISS illing to offer her the sa as well as a perht not require the peran did

“Have you taken into consideration the an asked

“All taken care of We’d match her salary, and she’d keep an executive position, bonus included And, to top it all off, we’re willing to offer her a permanent position here in Dallas That doesn’t ht here” Alex grinned “Close to you”

Logan could hear Saive the two men hell, and he sure hoped he could sit by and watch it as it happened Xavier and Alex knew Logan really didn’t have a say in the ht forth a human resource violation and, truthfully, XTX probably could lose the battle in court

“Well, gentlemen, you both know I can’t h First, ill be the one to try to sell her this idea? And that is behind door number two if she chooses to decline?”

Xavier leaned forward, resting his elbows on his knees “Logan, the only other option is to send her back to the San Antonio office”

Logan saw the strain on Xavier’s face, heard the uncertainty in his voice as he shared that little tidbit of inforet James’ job when he retires, but other than that, I don’t have ive her this inforoing to feel as if I’an, you’re close to her, and as of right now, she works for you We truly need her to take this offer It’s the best for both co we took lightly” Xavier ran his hand through his thick gray hair, a pained look on his face “Son, I don’t want to have to do this You know I’ve been supportive and hell, I really a doesn’t happen but once and I don’t want the two of you to let so like this come between you”
