You’re merely an assignment.

He no longer has to act with you, only for them.

Why the hell would he kiss someone who is just a job?

Awful laughter bubbled up my throat.

He said he noticed me.

That I was different.

But that could’ve just been manipulation to get me to play along.

Maybe he’s married.

Oh God.

And here I was, fawning all over him. Throbbing for him. Ever so close to asking him to touch me because I was going fucking insane with need.

My cheeks burned.

Downstairs.

On his lap.

He’d tried to stop fingering me.

We’d strayed over a line, and I stupidly thought it was a professional one, when really, he might belong to someone else.

“Wow, I…I’m sorry,” I choked. “I didn’t mean…”

I’d felt many things tonight. I wanted to run and hide in equal measure, fight to the death and explode with an orgasm, but I didn’t think rejection would be the one emotion to cripple me.

“Ily…” Henri sighed and raised a hand, his face etching with unspeakable darkness. “It’s okay. I shouldn’t have—”

“No, I get it.” I didn’t even care about the cameras as I trembled on the spot. “I shouldn’t have done that.”

“It’s not you,” he murmured. “I—”

Someone’s knuckles knocked politely on the door.

“Merde,” he spat. Glowering at me with everything he couldn’t say, he marched toward the door and yanked it open. “Evening.”

“Evening, Master H.” A neatly dressed server rolled in a silver trolly full of dome-covered plates. He spotted me cowering by the bed, no doubt seeing shock and horror all over me.

Giving me a sympathetic nod, he bowed at Henri, then left without another word.

The snick of the lock made me jump.

For a long moment, silence thickened between us.

Henri’s shoulders tensed.

Finally, he snapped his fingers and slipped back into his role of acting Master. His voice was a little loud, ensuring the cameras recorded every command. “Eat, little nightmare. The sooner you have some strength, the sooner I can have some real fun with you. I’m sick of hearing your stomach rumble every time I fuck you.”

Stalking away, he almost bolted into the bathroom.

The door slammed shut.
