Valerie’s apartment was massive. It was the penthouse suite in building that used to be some kind of industrial factory, which was true of most buildings in the area. At some point, a developer came along and gutted out most of the industrial buildings to turn them into what was basically the closest you could get to mansion-style living in downtown New York. I cringed to imagine how much Valerie must’ve stolen from Bruce to be able to afford a place like this.

Bruce looked so put together and clean as I followed him through the lobby of her building. It was impossible to stop picturing the perfect body under his suit and the way he had grinned while he was eating me out. The memory sent a hot shiver through me.

Time had only managed to make me more confused. On the one hand, I was still offended that he sent me away in the middle of what we were doing because of a phone call. At the very least, I deserved an explanation. He had to have known how self-conscious it made me to be sent away in the middle of the act like that, as if I’d done something wrong or soured him on the idea.

The bit of explanation I got as we walked from the car was a step in the right direction, but it still didn’t feel like it was enough to put my mind at ease.

I had the piece for Hank to think about, and as the days drew on, I felt more of a desperation to get it moving in any direction. I’d originally figured just being around Bruce would be enough for something useful to leak my way, but I hadn’t heard a word. Besides, every time my personal feelings got mixed up into the equation, I questioned whether I’d even be willing to go through with writing a piece that could hurt him. If I was being honest, I knew I couldn’t, as things currently stood. But it was easier to keep going through the motions than face reality.

I didn’t have a payday coming until I finished this piece, and quitting the piece would mean quitting as Bruce’s intern. Writing the piece would mean cutting Bruce out of my life, too. I knew I wasn’t ready to do that, but the clock was ticking. My bills weren’t stopping any time soon, and before long, I was going to have to do something. But what was I supposed to do when I didn’t like any of my options?

Bruce knocked on the door to Valerie’s apartment and waited. I rocked on my heels and laughed a little nervously. “Wonder what she’ll think when she sees me, huh?”

“If I know Valerie, you won’t have to wonder for long.”

The door opened to reveal a woman I assumed was Valerie. She was a little taller than me with hair dyed a platinum blonde from the looks of it. She was gorgeous, and I hated that the realization sent a spike of jealousy through me.
