Chapter Fifteen

I woke up on Alex’s bed. Outside, the sun had set and I looked around, trying to get my bearings. I checked my cellphone and saw that it was close to 8 pm. I had slept for two hours. Alex must have moved me to his bedroom, because the last thing I remembered was falling asleep on the couch. I got out of bed and noticed a beautiful dress hanging in the room.

“It’s for you, of course. Take your time getting ready, we’re going out,” Alex said, stepping out of the bathroom. He was wearing a suit and he was perfectly styled. His hair was slicked back and his face was smooth, freshly shaven.

I turned to the dress and studied it. It was an elegant evening dress, sleek black and without frills. I turned it over delicately in my hands and looked back up at Alex. I thanked him and he gave me a small wave and descended the stairs to give me privacy.

I showered for a long time, letting the hot water wash away the last remnants of my nap. I cleaned my hair and felt completely refreshed. By 9 pm, I was completely ready, my hair conservatively done and the dress fitting like it was made for me, which I dumbly realized it definitely was. Even after all that happened I was still amazed by the extravagance and elegance of everything. It would be a while before this became normal for me, if it ever did. I hope it never did. I loved the excitement and surprise of the life of opulence.

I descended the stairs slowly and I saw Alex watching me. He stood before me like a high school senior waiting for his prom date and took my hand.

“You look excellent. You and I will be dining at the finest restaurant in the city. I want to make a very public appearance to show whomever is threatening you that we are unafraid. Our response to that crudely defamed photograph will be our public appearance,” Alex said.

“What about your rivals in the company? Won’t they start watching me more closely if they see me in public with you?” I asked.

“Judging from your incident in the subway and the poster they tacked to your door, it seems like they already are watching you. We don’t need to hide anymore.”

We took the elevator down and Alex held the limousine door open for me. Once inside, he poured me a glass of champagne and we toasted to the future. We sat closely to each other and more than once I considered asking Alex to tell the driver to take the long way to the restaurant, but it was just nice to sit and enjoy a glass of champagne and some idle conversation. Alex talked about the future of Strauss Engines and how he looked forward to the implementation of the new direction of the company.

“Once we make the transition and we’ve entered into production and contracts that are binding, we’ll be past the danger.
