((Sorry for the delays ^^’’ birthday was this weekend so too much party haha also poor Caden, Alan might just be too tempted to play with him))<br/><br/>It seemed despite Caden’s best efforts his nerves and mental turmoil was not lost on the lawyer whose sharp eyes watched the way he shifted around the seat as he read out the documentation and did his best to explain the crux of the argument. They were making some headway but all the little things were like an itch for Alan whose Dom nature was like a bull with a little flag being waved around trying to bait him to play. He knew it wouldn’t be appropriate after all they had talked about but.... Alan was never really able to help himself and liked to indulge. Unlike Charles he didn’t have the iron self control and kink of denying himself all the pleasures in life so before he even noticed what he was doing his hand reached out to rest of the back of Caden’s neck as he spoke the words, “Settle...” in a firm and easily commanding tone that also had a bit of amused sweetness to it as if offering a treat if the other just behaved.<br/><br/>He wasn’t going to debate the nature of what Charles and him were doing, it had long ago gotten messy and he was sure Charles was making plans to eject him from his life again the moment he learned about him circling the water but that didn’t matter as Alan was as determined as Charles was stubborn. An unstoppable object meeting an unmovable force and one could only theorize about how it would all end. He removed his hand the moment he was was either scolded, rejected, or accepted the outcome didn’t matter as he knew he wasn’t going risk more in the office otherwise he would be too tempted to test the boundaries. The question of the room came up and he smiled easily, “I do have a place but it’s a little ways away from here so the commute is brutal. I had been planning to hole up in a hotel room to make things easier but if you’re offering I’m more than happy to take you up to on it.” Alan was not one to look a gift horse in the mouth nor be too prideful to take opportunities.<br/><br/>“It would be good to be close by so you can review the testimony about the process and call upon anyone else to add to the roster. Maybe encourage more people to step forward and get some documentation as you can never have too strong of a case.” He pointed out moving to shuffle the papers and straighten them out as he gazed over Caden not able to help sizing him up. There was one thing he couldn’t deny, Charles did have good taste, or maybe they just had similar taste which Alan considered ‘the best taste’ in who they chose to play with. Maybe that was part of the problem that doomed them to this little dance.
