Roxie

Roxie saw Kai get up and slip over to the couch, but she didn’t pay him much attention. He hadn’t seemed to recognize her that night on the boat and it would seem Lincoln hadn’t informed him who she was. That was good.

She hadn’t done any ballet, not even practice, since the night of the fire, the thought of it only brought her pain. She looked up at him as she took a stance on her bare toes and saw Lincoln smiling at her with pure joy. She couldn’t help but smile back and began to dance. Luckily, the house was huge, open, and she had plenty of room to move around as her muscles remembered the movements, the steps she needed to make.

She whirled around the room, alive again, safe again, for the first time since she’d left him at that hotel. Maybe it was the two beers, maybe it was just him, but it didn’t matter. She was dancing, and it was like being home again.

Lincoln continued to play, and play beautifully, as she moved. She was older now, but she’d continued to keep herself fit with dance, just not ballet. She missed a few steps she knew she should have made, but it didn’t matter. She was dancing ballet again, for Lincoln, and it was like she’d been set free.

“Bravo,” Lincoln said with applause as he finished playing and she came to a sudden halt.

“Thank you.” She breathed as she noticed Kai was passed out, snoring on the couch.

“That was beautiful, Roxie.” Lincoln stood up and bowed to her.

“You didn’t play so bad yourself.” She answered and walked over to grab a glass of water from the kitchen.

“Do you still do ballet?” He asked as he sat down at the table.

“No, not anymore.” She shook her head and looked away from him.

“Hey, let me show you guys something,” Kai mumbled, making them both jump as he got up from the couch and wandered up a set of stairs. “Come on.”

“Where is he taking us?” Roxie asked as she followed beside Lincoln, up the stairs and down the hall to a room with a padlock on the door.

“I’ve known Kai for a long time, spent a lot of time in this house, but that door has always been locked. I have no idea what it is.” Lincoln said softly.

“It’s my playroom.”

Roxie frowned, suspecting she knew exactly what kind of room it was, but Lincoln just looked puzzled.

“A what?” He asked and looked down at Roxie.

“A playroom. I think he means his sex dungeon.” She wiggled her eyebrows at him suggestively and grinned.

“Oh. Shit. Never mind. Sorry.” Kai turned around, a little green around the gills. “Excuse me.”

“Uh oh.” Roxie laughed as Kai ran away. “What now?”

“I guess we go back downstairs?” Lincoln offered but Roxie shook her head.

He’d spent two weeks teasing her, torturing her and she’d seen how uncomfortable he looked when she mentioned a sex dungeon. This was her chance at payback.

“No, I don’t think so. I want to see this room.
