Chapter 35

The next morning, Kent is working in his office when a knockcomes at the door.

“Come in,” he calls, hardly paying attention.

The door creeks open but no one says anything. Annoyed, Kent looks up, ready to tell whatever captain or guard was coming toreport to get on with it and stop wasting his time.

To his surprise, though, Fay stands in the doorway. Kent leans back in his chair with a smirk, curious. What on earth could shewant now?

“Yes?” he asks.

“Um, can | come in?” she says, anxiously playing with her hair.

“| just wanted to talk. About last night.” She hesitates again. “Is itsafe to talk in here? About...”

He sighs and gives her a little glare. “Yes, Fay. Go ahead.”

“| just wanted to offer, again, to help. In whatever way | can. I’m happy to offer my services.”

“Your...services,” he says, letting his eyes rove over her body as much as they want to, deliberately trying to be lewd. If heembarrasses her, she'll give up, he thinks. As she’s done before.

She blushes deliciously — he feels a stirring within himself, watching her squirm- and then stands up straight.“You know what | mean, Kent,” she says. “I could council you, offer some therapies.”
