Around and around they went, avoiding the question that would come at the end of the night. Jack watched it like a danse macabre set to a pop song. It was as exciting to watch as it was inevitable.

The little things hit him hardest: the way Sarah touched her neck when listening to David; how she’d reach between them to link hands when making a point. In profile, Jack could see the way she nervously fidgeted with her dress, pulling it down her thighs like it was too short, crossing her legs over and over. David was just as infatuated, although he did a better job hiding it. He stared at her just a moment too long, studying her as she put in her order with the waitress or when she glanced about the restaurant.

Jack didn’t think she even knew he was there. At the beginning of the evening, she’d glanced around when David wasn’t looking, but by the end, she stopped trying.

Things began to tail off. He watched as Sarah stood, excusing herself to the ladies room. Jack traced her across the room, then stood to follow. He was there when she emerged, waiting in the hall at the back of the restaurant.

Could it be that simple? Was Sarah’s fantasy less about doing things with David and more about submitting to Jack? No, she clearly wanted her younger coworker. But like the Sarah he’d grown to love, she needed permission to act badly. “Are you attracted to David?”

“Yes.”

“Have you thought about kissing him?”

“Yes.”

“Fucking him?”

Her voice was barely a whisper. “Yes.”

“I want you to do all those things. I want you to let go. Tonight, you’re not Sarah Carter. You’re just Sarah, a woman who can do whatever she wants, and have none of it count tomorrow.”

“Jack, I don’t think I can.” It went against every instinct she had, no matter how seductive the thought was.

“You can. You just need a little push. So here’s what I want you to do. First, fix your lipstick. Then I want you to go out there and...”
