The Fairy Cakes Were a Mistake in Hindsight
Mabel knew that working with the grumpiest man of all time was going to
be tough. She just didn’t appreciate how tough, until he stalked into the
meeting room.
An hour late. With a face like thunder.
And a complete unwillingness to say so much as a word.
No hello. No sorry. Not even a response when Greg Pemberton
introduced them.

“This is Mabel Willicker, the absolutely first-rate writer we’ve selected
for you now,” Greg said. And didn’t get so much as a grunt as an answer.
The grumpiest man to ever live—or Alfie Harding, as he was more
commonly known to much of the British public—simply shoved himself
deep into the nearest chair.

Then proceeded to glare at everything so hard, she couldn’t understand
why it didn’t all immediately burst into flames. The fairy cakes she’d baked
and rather optimistically brought along should have been a melted mess; the
glossy oval table between them little more than ash. And when he bothered
to look in their direction, good Lord. She actually felt the heat peeling off
her skin. By the time he looked away, she was sure that she was little more
than a skeleton. Only without the benefit of being nothing but bones.
Because at least then she wouldn’t have been able to blush.

But blush she did. Her pale face was the color of a ketchup bottle. She
knew it was, because she could see it reflected back at her in the polished
surface of the table. And any second now, he was going to look back and
notice it. Her blazing cheeks, like a sign that said:
I am never in a million years going to be able to do this.
Even though she absolutely knew she could.
She was a good writer, damn it.

And great at getting things out of people.
You just have to find that way in, that little whatever-it-is that someone
loves and responds to, she’d said to Greg, when Greg had suggested that
she might not be up to the task. Then she’d seen it on Greg’s face: that hint
of belief, mixed in with the initial doubt from when her agent had gotten in
touch with him about this project.

So it was infuriating that her cheeks were betraying her.
And now Alfie was looking back, and he could see it, and this weird
expression just broke all over his face. Like anger, only of a slightly
different variety that she wasn’t quite familiar with. Which made sense,
when she really thought about it, because Alfie Harding was so furious all
the time he had probably unearthed layers of the emotion that nobody else
had ever even heard of. He practically had a PhD in Being Really Annoyed.
This was just his latest find:

Baffled Contempt.
Or maybe Amazed Disgust.
She couldn’t tell for sure.

And before she was able to decipher it, Greg stepped in.
“Now, I know we’ve had some missteps. And that you’re very wary of
working with a particular type of person,” he started, and honestly in any
