I don’t know what to say, so I don’t say anything. I just standing before him, trying not to let my knees
shake.
The threat of that only increases when he takes two steps towards me, placing one hand on my waist,
his other tilting my chin up towards him.
“Are you sure about this, Fay?” Kent whispers, his voice a caress. “Because if this is just an attempt to
call my bluff – I promise you. There is no bluff.”
I’m sure he can feel me trembling now that his hands are on me, but I will myself to stare clearly into
his eyes. “No bluff, Kent,” I say, keeping my voice steady. “I signed the papers. I’ll stand by them. But
we’re going to do this on my terms –“
He laughs at me suddenly, taking his hand from my waist and using it to give me a sharp slap on the
ass.
I gasp, stumbling back from him, shocked.
He gives me a wolfish smile, returning his hands to his pockets. “No, Fay,” he says, shaking his head.
“My terms. Only my terms. Is that understood?”
I open my mouth to protest, but he ignores me, looking away towards the window as if my objections
don’t matter.
“I want you to contact Ivan tonight,” he demands, his voice all business. “Tell him you want to go to
dinner with him tomorrow.”
I had opened my mouth to protest his terms and I don’t bother to shut it when I hear his order. It just
would have fallen open again anyway at this turn. What was – I thought that he –All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
“What, Fay,” Kent pushes, smirking at me and reading my mind. “Did you think I was going to come in
here and ravish you tonight?” He slowly shakes his head. “No. With you, I want to take my time.”
He turns then and slowly heads towards the door, looking at me when he reaches it. “You’ll go to dinner
with Ivan tomorrow night, don’t take no for an answer. And then, when you’re on the date, don’t say
anything about our plans to have him come to our side yet. Just…be friendly.” He smirks at me, letting
me interpret that any way I want.
I take a minute to process his command and then nod, letting him know I understand, gathering
together my pride. This was my role now, after all. Agent and mistress of the mafia king. I had expected
the latter title to come into play tonight but…well, I could roll with these changes. Honestly, I was a little
relieved.
“And then,” he continues, snapping my attention back to him. “When you come home,” he puts an
emphasis on the last word, ensuring that I understand that he expects me home tomorrow night, and
not at Ivan’s house, “there will be another box like this one in your room. I’d like you to wear it. And
then wait for me to come to you.”
I don’t say anything. I just stare at him. Was it going to be tomorrow night, then? When he…
“Do you understand, Fay?” Kent asks, raising an eyebrow at me, clearly pleased with how this went.
I raise my chin towards him. “Yes,” I tell him, my voice steady.
“Good,” he purrs, his eyes devouring me one last time before he pulls the door open. “I’ll look forward
to it, Fay. Every minute of it.”
Kent pulls the door closed behind him and I fall to my knees, finally giving my legs permission to
collapse and tremble all they want. My hands are shaking too as I grab my new phone from the bottom
drawer of my desk and call my sister.
“Really?” she asks, intrigued. “Then what did you do?”
“Nothing,” I insist. “Well…he gave me a task to do tomorrow. But I need you. Help me figure out what to
do next.”
So, I tell her everything.
And together, we come up with a plan.
