By Friday, Reegan was exhausted. It had been a good week, all things considered. The new security program she had spent hours upon hours coding was streaming along. There had been a few minimal adjustments she’d had to make so far, but on the whole, it was running better than she could have hoped. There was still plenty of testing that needed to be done with the software but she was confident in the design.

Granted, she had already put in eighty hours by noon today, but at least she was making time and a half overtime—and dreaming of what she planned to do with the extra cash. She was thinking a week long luxury stay at one of those island resorts with the cabins over water in the South Pacific, like Bora Bora.

But the most startling turn of events was that she was considering asking Brody if he’d like to go with her. To spend a week in an above water private bungalow, where they could eat, and gorge on the pleasures of each other’s flesh. The notion was ridiculous, of course. They weren’t a couple, no matter how fantastic the sex happened to be—and sweet baby Jesus, it was amazing. The simple thought of the two of them together in Brody’s bed, dungeon, or really anywhere else in that man’s house, and her toes curled in her bright pink Converse high-tops.

She sat at her desk in jeans and a Ramones tee, her hair bundled into a messy bun on top of her head, black-rimmed glasses perched on her nose, staring at lines of code on the bank of monitors gracing her desk. She really did love her work. Not to mention the financial freedom it garnered her. She didn’t have to depend on anyone, like her parents. Her mom would love nothing more than to be able to control Reegan through money. But Reegan had vowed to herself when she’d gone away to college and finally achieved a measure of breathing room from her mother’s constant hovering, that she would make her way in life and remove the vestiges of her parents’ control. Being independent was how she liked it, even though there were days she didn’t have an answer.

Too often while she’d been growing up, her parents had used money as a way to curtail her impulsive nature. They had made it impossible for her to be herself. And it was one of the many reasons why she tended to eschew commitment. In her mind, commitment equaled imprisonment, and giving another person power over you.

It was rather ironic, given her need to submit in the bedroom. But then, it was only a power exchange for the duration of the scene, or sex.

Which, in a roundabout way, brought her to Brody. The guy was persistent with his overtures. The more time she spent with him, the more her ability to keep her walls in place and remain emotionally unattached became more difficult. She had to give the man credit where it was due.
