We've done good work. Let's say she was receptive to my advances. Neil remained silent for a moment before slowly rising to his feet. She's getting closer. I can feel it. whatever, whenever I can touch her, she doesn't pull away, but she's afraid to let go with Alex next to her all the time, even though thoughtfully. She has seen the same pattern in her sessions with Sarah. No matter where the conversation begins, it always finds its way back to Alex, to their their vows and the life she's built for herself is her anchor. As long as he's by her side every day, she's constantly reminded of the person she believes she's supposed to be. Do you have any suggestions? Eva hesitates, then perhaps. Alex needs to be out of the picture temporarily, just long enough for Sarah before they become problems. Her Thursday morning departure will give you a few days to accumulate before the real work begins. Thursday, that's two days. I know it's short notice, but opportunities like this don't wait around. Neil's expression is understanding, but his unspoken authority in his voice. The company needs someone we trust, someone who can represent us well. When I looked at the candidates, your name was the first, the top off the list. Alex opened the folder scanning the few pages project overview timeline compensation package. Then Namash made his eyes wide slightly. This is a significant step up, both in visibility and in pay. Now you won't be able to do this alone. I was thinking you could bring your intern Emma. She could assist with the day to day once things are set up. Alex looked up surprised. Emma? That's good. Thursday? That's really soon, I know. And the whole thing runs about three weeks, maybe four, depending on how things go. The excitement in her eyes thumps. She steps back, her arms crossing loosely over her chest. Three weeks? Yeah. A silence settled between them Alex watches her expression change No the reality of it sinks in When would you be back I would be there for three or four weeks depending on how it goes She's quiet for a moment, processing. Then she looks up at him, and there's something soft and wounded in her expression. Alex, you missed Valentine's Day. The realization hits him immediately. I didn't even think about the dates. We've never spent Valentine's Day apart. Not once since we got married. I know. I'll meet her on Thursday morning, two days from now. Two days? That's very soon. Neil wants me there early to get settled before the main phase kicks off. I talked to Sarah about it this morning. She's supportive. She says I should take it. That she's proud of me. She's always like that. Always in my corner. That sounds like a good thing. It is. She's amazing. He pulls something complicated across his face. But I'd be gone for Valentine's Day. We've never spent it apart, not once, in twelve years. Not since we started dating. Eva is quiet for a moment, letting the weight off. It's settled. How did she react when she realized the date? She said it was fine, that we'd celebrate when I get back. she's not going to be the wife who holds me back over holiday she's better about this stuff than I am I'm the one sitting here second-guessing a thank you dr. Eva for helping me think it you that's what I'm here for the afternoon Sun is long thing through the windows where when Sarah appears at Alex's desk. She moves quietly, her heels barely making a sound against the wooden floor. Hey, are you busy? Alex looks up from his computer, a smile spreading across his face. Not really. What's up? I'm feeling a little drained. I was wondering if you'd be up for taking a walk or maybe grabbing a coffee or something. I was actually thinking I should pick up a few new outfits. Oh, most of my work clothes are getting pretty old. Seems like a a good time to update my wardrobe. The only problem is I don't have much time. Did you know any clothing stores nearby? Something flickered across Sarah's face. Over she with a smile curves her lips Actually I know the perfect place The shop where Louise work in is pretty close by You remember him Louise hey About the bikini top you never came back for the matching bottom Sarah feels heat rising to her cheeks. Before she can respond, Alex opened the fitting room curtain. He pauses. His eyes flick between Sarah flushed face and Louise standing too close. Sarah, the shirt looks good but what do you think about the pants? The fit is awful though the size is what I usually wear several steps closer seizing he's right the trousers punch the ankles and there's extra room at the waist we can fix that a simple adjustment we have a tailor in the back and he can have these perfect for you within the hour an hour that's fine we're in no rush excellent if you want to come with me I'll introduce you to him his name is Henry Best tailor in the city. Alex turns to Sarah, playful glint in his eyes. While I'm back there, getting bent and brooded, why don't you find some ice from between two racks? His movements soundless on the hardwood floor. His eyes find hers immediately, dark and knowing. Hmm, I can't believe Alex is right. Only took him five minutes to find me. Ma'am, can I help you find something? I'm just browsing for some limbs, right? We got a beautiful selection, soaked like some very daring pieces. I'm sure I can manage on my own, of course, but if you need help, like last time, you just have to ask. The words hang in the air. Sarah feels her pulse quicken, her head creeping up her neck like last time. I'm good, thank you. Her voice is steady despite the flutter in her chest. Let's see if he comes by the fitting room like last time. He steps back, disappearing between the racks, leaving Sarah standing alone. Sarah's throat tightening. The piece is beautiful, elegant and sensual, the kind of thing that would look scandalous and perfect against her skin. She looks at her corset, then at Louis' face. is writing his expression, careful neutral, but his eyes give them away. They are dark intent remembering. Should I go ahead with the plan? I'm going to do it. I'm going to let him in Alex told me to act as if I cheating Is Alex still with the tailor She whispered her words her voice barely audible through the crack in the curtain Yeah Henry is really particular about the stitching Takes forever. Sarah gripped tightens on the velvet fabric. She looks past him, towards the damp corridor, then back at the door, clasping her hands. She hesitated for one more agonizing second, thinking about the dangerous game she and Alex are playing. Come in. He slips through her eyes fixed on his face, but his eyes are focused elsewhere. Sarah turns slowly so he can see from behind. She glances over her shoulder, catching him staring at the curve of her ass. Well, what do you think? Jesus, you're stunning. His voice is rough, barely controlled. Sarah feels a surge of aching knees. Sarum meets his eyes in the mirror. The cups of the course are sure enough that the darker circles of her radars are visible beneath the lace, her nipples already hardening. The brow part is a little sheer. Do you think it looks good on me? Yeah, better than anything I've ever seen. She drops her hands and tends to face him freely, close enough that he could reach out and touch her. She struggled to compose herself, to stop the man threatening to escape. This is a game above the waist only and god it's driving her insane. She's trying to be quiet because I'm here. If I pretend to leave, they'll think they are safe. Let's go. Alex cocked ropes at a thought. You know, since I'm here, I think I'll have Henry adjust another pair. Maybe, maybe. The fit is just too good to pass up. He tries to sound casual. Sarah stands frozen, her hands still pressed over her mouth, her eyes squeezing shut. This hasn't stopped. If anything, he's moving between her breasts, his tongue hot against the skin, his hand needing the flesh he just abandoned. Good idea! You think you can wait another 15 minutes? He bites down gently on the nettle salad and nearly goes out. Sure, take your time. Great.
