The mention of Charles not being happy with them spending time together. In turn, the lawyer couldn't help the roll of his eyes that followed, "I'm not surprised. If Charles can't control your every move he's not happy. He would have you sitting on the ground eating bites out of his hand at your leisure if he felt like he could get away with it." Despite Alan being a dominant and into tormenting his lovers he never got into the level of dressing his subs (outside of the bedroom) or the level of micromanagement that Charles seemed to thrive on. "I have never gotten the appeal but then again I also like to actually touch and feel while my pets enjoy themselves." He said with a slightly more wicked smirk.<br/><br/>This topic was much more along the lines of what he wanted to chat about rather than the trauma of the past that brought him here. It was much nice to talk and think about the wonderful and smutty sex that they had not just last night. Somehow that all felt like it was so long ago and out of reach now with Caden trying to actively pull away from him. Well, he if couldn't convince the other man than so be it. "Go ahead and tell your keeper whatever he needs to feel better." he waved Caden off as he said it half expecting Charles to just be waiting outside their door with baited breath. "As far as a form of apology..." He quirked a brow at the mention, "I'm sure you could come up with some ideas on what I would enjoy." It was hard for the man to resist flirtation and flattery.<br/><br/>He could tell that Caden was uncomfortable and hiding something but pushing seemed unwise when the boy was clearly torn. Who was he to keep a submissive from feeling like they needed to serve their master anyways? "I will have to think if there is anything PG on offer that would interest me but otherwise I want to get back to the case." It appeared despite everything Alan was still going to be business first and foremost. No matter how cute he thought the CEO to be, thinking about how well he took his cock wasn't going to help resolve the law suit. Alas.
