within his mind’s eye.
    How
would he know if he made love to her?
    Scarlett
began to lean down towards him.
    He
wouldn’t find out, would he?
    Her
hand nestled upon the bulge beneath his trousers.
    ‘Wait.’
Lucas pushed back his chair and stood up. ‘I need to have a
shower,’ he spoke a lot faster than he meant to. Scarlett was
wearing a mask of confusion. She wasn’t quite sure what had
just happened. Had he really pulled back from her like she was some
kind of plague ridden person?
    Lucas
rushed out of the room.
    ***
    Scarlett
paced back and forth in the kitchen with the phone in hand. She
didn’t have to be a genius to know what Lucas was doing in the
shower right now. From the look in his eyes it was easy to see how
turned on he had been, but why had he pulled away from her like that?
There is one thing avoiding her advances, but it is something
completely different when he pulls back like he is repulsed.
    ‘Hello,’
said Anne on the other end of the phone.
    ‘Hey,
it’s me.’
    ‘How
is it going?’ asked the older sister.
    ‘Not
well,’ confirmed Scarlett. ‘I did what you said. I put on
the sexy baby doll lingerie and I stood on tip toes, bent over, and
leaned over.’
    ‘How
did he react?’
    ‘He
was turned on, but I don’t get it. We started kissing and I
placed my hand upon his thigh. I could feel how turned on he had
become, but then he pulled away and rushed off upstairs.’
    ‘Huh…’
was all that Anne could think to say.
    ‘What
should I do?’ asked Scarlett.
    ‘I
really don’t know. Why would he pull away from you?’
    ‘That
is what I have been asking myself. Have I done something wrong?’
    There
was a slight pause for a moment and the phone line went quiet.
    ‘Did
you get the movie?’ asked Anne.
    ‘Yes,
but…’
    ‘It
will work. Trust me.’ Anne giggled. ‘He will not be able
to resist.’

    Lucas
sat in the corner of the couch. It felt good to get out of a shirt
and tie. He had gone for his favourite football jersey and a pair of
old running trousers. He wasn’t going to win any awards for
world’s best dressed man, but right now he needed to relax and
chill out.
    Scarlett
walked into the room.
    Instantly,
his mouth was feeling very dry.
    She
was still wearing the baby doll outfit and she looked sexy.
    ‘What
movie is it?’ he asked.
    ‘That
is a surprise.’ She headed over to the DVD player and knelt
down on the floor to insert the DVD. A flash of lust ignited within
the depths of his soul at the sight of her naked ass. That dress was
too short for her to be bending over like that. Regret set in like a
bad case of sea sickness.
    Why
did he have to make that god damned arrangement?
    Any
other time he would have made wild and passionate love to her right
there on the living room floor, but he had to prove to Mr Mills that
he was a man of his word.
    This
was important for their future financially.
    Scarlett
seemed to dance across the living room floor and flicked off the
lights. She quickly returned to her position next to him on the
couch, as the credits for the movie started to come up. Lucas wrapped
an arm around her, as she cuddled into him. Unconsciously, his eyes
dropped down the front of her top, but somehow he managed to force
them back up to the television screen. It was taking every ounce of
self-control within his body to not do what every natural fibre in
his body was screaming at him to do. Scarlett slipped her soft
delicate palm into the hand wrapped around her body.
    The
movie started.
    Lucas
felt his heart stop.
    What
type of movie was this?
    It
was a scene of a naked woman straddling a man on the bed. The man’s
hands were upon her body and the woman was moving her hips like some
sort of exotic dancer. It was almost hypnotic the way her back moved,
as if it were devoid of all bones. Her sensual moans were being
drilled deep down into the depths of Lucas’s soul. He turned to
look out of the corner of his eye. Scarlett was hooked to
