“So,” Dorothy fills in the silence of the room, “you said that you have some information for our case?”

Emily looks at me. I say nothing, simply nodding, allowing her to take charge. I know that she wants to feel in control, to hold the reins of her life in her hands with no outside interference.

“Yes,” Emily breathes out, “we do.”

I sit back and watch as Emily goes over all of the evidence with Dorothy. She points out and set aside specific documents, citing that each piece of paper can help with a specific aspect of the case against her old family.

A sense of pride washes over my body as I watch Emily and Dorothy interact with one another. It is only when Emily goes quiet, allowing the lawyer to overlook the evidence in silence, that our eyes meet again.

I offer her a small and encouraging smile, a slight knot of my head to show her that I am proud of her for taking charge. She drops her hands below the surface of the table, placing them on top of her lap. I reach out and grab the arm rest of her chair. I gently pull her closer to me.

I rest my hand on top of my lap, my palm facing up towards the ceiling. I stare straight ahead the fact that I have openly offered myself to her in this moment. Emily reaches over and leases her tightening on another.

We wait in the quiet room, the sound of rustling papers and pages filling in the absence of sound. “Okay,” Dorothy says with a huff of air. Her gaze meets the two of ours, and she leans back in her chair, slight exhaustion in taking over her body. I don’t blame her, it really is a lot to have to go through in a short period of time. “There is more than enough evidence that will help us win the case.”

“Really?” Emily’s demeanor immediately picks up, turning much brighter and airy than she has been in the past. It is so nice to be able to see this side of her, the side of her outside of the pack and her role as one of my assistants in the pack.

“Yes,” Dorothy responds with a smile. “We will show only the relevant parts to the other party right now and follow the law as required, but the other information I will only reveal once I figure out a way to have it serve only us and not them.”

Dorothy stands from the table and gathers her belongings as well as the copies that we have made for her, placing them inside of her briefcase. Emilie and I stand up, helping her towards the conference room door as she speaks about setting up another meeting with us before the court trial begins.

As soon as she steps through the door, I turned to look at Emily, who is already flinging herself into my arms. I catch her with ease and feel as she wraps her arms around my neck, the tips of her fingers grazing along the line of my spine as she puts her full weight into me.

My heart skips a beat. Nervousness suddenly takes over my body and I help lower her to the ground. Emily pulls away and looks up at me, her bright smile slightly faltering when she realizes what it is that she has done.
