The Orc from the Office

By Kate Prior

Mate-bonding with a co-worker is against company policy . . . accidentally or not.

Janice knows better than anyone that entanglements with coworkers are risky business.

But when Janice accidentally breaks a coworker's nose, she finds herself unexpectedly mated to an orc, and under Monster Resources' scrutiny.

Khent from the IT Department is quiet and nerdy, despite the tusks. His emails are overly wordy. He won't stop apologizing even though she's the one who broke his glasses. Clearly, fate got this one wrong.

All Janice has to do is stay away from Khent until the bond dissipates. Easy enough, right? Except . . . Her company laptop chooses this week to need the orc from the IT Department, repeatedly . . . She accidentally clicks on orc porn at work and has to take remedial phishing training with Khent.

. . . Their bond will keep pulling them back together until it is completed.

Contains mature themes.
