"It appears to me that strings are definitely involved in Norah's opinion," Evangeline murmured, one of her brow's raising softly on her face as she examined his face carefully with her bright coloured eyes.<br/>Her body stiffened in surprise as she felt his warm foot rubbing against her one, and she glanced down before back up at him, her teeth digging almost nervously into the plump pinkness of her lower lip. Not objecting but not responding to his advances just yet, her mind and body still at differences about Richard at currently. The whole thing a wild emss in her head, a mess of reality and arousal that made it near impossible for the young woman to make a decision.<br/><br/>A gasp escaped Evie as the comfort of the sheets were ripped from her body, exposing her underwear clad body to his hungry eyes and a small shudder ran down her spin at the gaze he held confidently, her hand halfheartedly seeking for the sheet so she could cover herself once more. As she failed to regain that layer of modesty, she quickly pulled the sheet away from his body too in a bold and quick moment, monetarily forgetting that instead of being partially clothed like Evangeline, he was as naked as the day he was born into the world. She figured that if she wasn't allowed the luxury of the modesty she had tried to retain, then neither was he and she was quick to roll onto her side, facing the wall away from him but not moving away from the warm presence of his bulky figure behind her petite frame.<br/><br/>The pleasure that Richard had allowed Evangeline to experience that same afternoon had been more than she had been lucky enough to experience in a long long time and it had been well worth the wait. But now her new boss had muddied the waters, making it impossible to distinguish between work and pleasure. Evie had no desire to turn into the new Norah, just to be discarded when a new job was given to a new, prettier version of herself and for whatever this was to slip out of her grasp, just like it was slowly but surely to Norah.
