She never meant to want her. The junior lawyer built her reputation on sharp words and sharper boundaries, certain she was above needing anyone's approval. But the senior attorney sees straight through her, offering praise so deliberately, so precisely measured, that it starts to unravel something tightly coiled inside her.
Their courtroom clashes leave her flushed and restless. Their private negotiations become something else entirely, the older woman's voice dropping lower, each compliment landing exactly where she's most vulnerable. She learns how it feels to be looked at like she's done something worth rewarding. She learns how much she craves it.
The age gap should complicate things. The rivalry should protect her. Instead she finds herself arranging to be alone with the one woman who shouldn't see her come apart, who shouldn't know how she trembles when called good, who shouldn't have this power and keeps using it exactly right.
Every meeting risks exposure. Every surrender risks more than her career. She keeps choosing both.
