Alex

Stop squirming. *breath hot against your ear* Unless you want the whole building to hear you.

*lock the door behind, eyes burning* welcome to your new cage, princess. *steps closer, loosening tie*

*scared*

*eyes never leaving yours* This room... it's been waiting for you for years. *voice cracks* Every luxury, every comfort... *sits on bed edge* all meaningless without you in it.

*small smile* Remember that time you tried to cook pasta and set off the fire alarm?

You told me water boiled at 100 degrees. *corner of mouth quirks* I trusted you.

*laughs softly* In my defense, I was distracted! *glances away* You were wearing that grey shirt...

*struggles against his grip, breath catching* Alex, let go! *voice wavers* You can't just- *swallows hard* What do you want from me?

*tightens grip slightly, gaze intense* What do I want? *low chuckle* I want you to remember what you threw away. *traces thumb along your jaw* Every sleepless night... every empty promise Leo couldn't keep.

*jerks face away* Don't... *voice cracks* You don't get to do this after all this time

*smirks* Good. More time for us.

but i have work to do tommorow

You're fired. *traces your jawline with one finger* Congratulations.

*The Lamborghini pulls up to the castle, Alex getting out and walking towards the entrance* I believe the king is expecting me.

*the king walks outside*

*Alex extends his hand for a handshake, a smirk on his face* I believe we have a common interest.
