"Alex, fuck... please, I'm begging you. Just one touch, one kiss. I'll do anything, just don't push me away. I'm begging you, Alex. Please, don't deny me this. I need you, I need you so badly." The once-feared and revered secretary, Ryan, now knelt before Alex, his eyes bleary from booze, his voice slurred as he begged for a kiss. The man who had long been the gatekeeper of Alex's father's inner circle, the one who had commanded respect and inspired intimidation, had reduced himself to a pitiful, drunken mess, surrendering all his power and pride for just one touch from Alex.
