They slipped easily back into their routine. Zain found himself quietly becoming fond of this woman. Yes she was attractive, but he'd had his share of attractive women. Stella was different in her dedication and will alongside the glimmers of sweetness and the well-maintained mask of callousness. He was finally giving her credit for her depth.

Meanwhile, Rhett was showing up more and more often at the shop, always with a petty excuse. Zain noticed it more lately, and that day would be no different.

“Hey love, I brought those flux capacitors you requested.” The sound of Rhett's voice hummed through the room as he threw a bag at Stella, who just barely managed to catch it.

Stella peered inside the bag and let out an exasperated sigh that set off a twinge of glee in Zain's churning stomach. “One, flux capacitors aren't a real thing, and two, what the hell are you doing bringing me chocolate?”

Rhett shrugged. “Figured we could eat some while we discussed real business. In private.” He added the last part with a pointed look in Zain's direction.

Stella didn't look too pleased. “All right, fine. Zain, keep the shop and call me if anything urgent happens.”

Zain shrugged and went back to work. There was still plenty to be done and he figured she’d be back out rather quickly. He could occupy himself with going back to helping some of the other employees with doing inventory.

“Wild woman, isn't she, Zain? See ya later, boy-o.” Rhett grinned at him and clapped Zain's shoulder as he passed.

Zain's stomach turned at the thought of Rhett's grimy hands scouring Stella's tiny frame, coaxing forth soft gasps and groans, but he wasn't sure what to do with this new wave of emotions. So he immersed himself back into the inventory work. She was his employer, he reminded himself. Their arrangement was one of convenience, not passion.

It was no sooner than he had managed to get his greasy shirt off that there was a sharp rap on his door, followed immediately by the click of the slide mechanism and Stella's all too familiar combat boots tromping toward him.

“Woman!” He turned, not bothering to cover himself. “I was getting dressed!”

Apparently, so had she before she decided to visit. She had made her entrance in nothing but a towel wrapped loosely beneath her underarms, her damp hair plastered against her pretty cheeks and her pale skin still tinged pink from the hot water. This kind of entrance wasn't unusual, but he wasn't expecting her that night. She usually told him when she wanted to be laid rather than bursting in without notice, and never looking so .
