who: Genevieve Hernandez @genhernandez where: Liberman Law Office

The last place that Teagan had wanted to be was sitting in the waiting room of the lawyers office, waiting for someone to call her name as if she were about to receive the worst news known to man. And sure, she knew she was being dramatic, but she'd never expected to be in a situation like this one where she'd have to be taking care of all of this. She was grateful that her father was still here with her, but, the position he was in currently - living in the assisted living, struggling to get better at the end of every day - and it was a lot for loved ones to handle. But she wanted to make sure everything was lined up properly, that there were no red flags or questions to come up in the situation that something were to happen, which is what brought her here in the first place. After waiting for what felt like hours in the waiting room, Teagan was led to the office of Genevieve Hernandez and Teagan entered the room after being escorted there. Offering the other a small smile as she extended her hand in greeting, Teagan spoke. "Thank you for meeting me here today, Ms. Hernandez." she smiled. "I don't want to keep you too long, I'm not even sure you can help me but I have some legal concerns in regards to my father that I'd like to check in on and I was brought to talk to you."

Closed starter for @mossofteeth / Aaron & Genevieve

It had been a busy week, and a successful one at that. Not a lot of people would celebrate getting a murdering slumlord off scot-free, but Aaron was one of them. The whole firm was, really. The guy had put them on a pretty hefty retainer after his success, and Aaron had used that to cement his standing in the firm. That partner offer was right around the corner; he could feel it.

So they'd gone out to celebrate at the first ridiculously expensive restaurant they could find. Some of the others had invited wives and girlfriends along, and the evening had taken on a life of its own. All the while, Aaron personally preferred to blend in seamlessly, more or less quietly watching the evening unfurl. He was engaged loosely in conversation with a few of the other senior associates and their wives when something unexpected drew his attention. It was an instinct more so than anything he actually saw at first, but it pulled him from the conversation and made him look around.

The glass of red wine he'd been nursing still in his hand paused on the way to his lips when his eyes finally found what they'd unknowingly been searching for. They widened a fraction - and then narrowed. She'd just walked in - on the arm of one of the juniors who'd been invited to join the celebrations after dinner, and Aaron's mind stretched like a rubber band before snapping, focused on one overwhelmingly simple word: mine.

It took him all of one second to put his pleasant mask back in place, and he lifted a hand slightly to invite Gen and her date over, a casual smile on his face, attention focused on the male at her side as though she was any other two-bit girlfriend on the arm of a random colleague.

[thedcvilherself]

She was tight and warm around his fingers, walls clenching as if trying to push them out. But Ángel had never been one to give in to the demands of others, especially when he had something he wanted, digits being pushed farther before he pulled them out and thrust them inside again. "Do you even want to repent, Genevieve? Are you doing a bad job of begging for God's forgiveness because you think you have done no wrong?" she hadn't, the only mistake she had made was catching their attention. Soft, gullible, easy to break.

The perfect target for them. Ángel hummed as he took a leisurely pace with his fingers, watching Ione present the cross to Genevieve with interest.

Her eyes were already shiny, and it brought a sick sort of satisfaction into Ione, lips quirking into a smile as the girl went chaste and gave the cross a peck. "You think that is good enough for your God? Are you mocking him, Genevieve? Are you not taking this seriously?" she pursed her lips in mocking annoyance. "Open your mouth and properly apologize." as if to make it more obvious what she intended, the blonde pressed the cross against the woman's lips, intent to thrust it inside the moment they opened.

For a moment she had thought that was it, that Ángel had merely needed to assure the holy water was inside her and that the digits would remain for a moment before withdrawing. She was wrong. It's impossible to ignore the sensation of them digging in farther before finally withdrawing, only to ease back inside, notable enough to cause her thighs to tremble and begin creating moisture within her core. "No. No, I do..." The tears are spilling freely from her cheeks now, mortified not only that she'd sinned against God but that in doing so, she'd disappointed the siblings to such a degree. "I know I've sinned, I know...I want to be forgiven."

It's overwhelming; their disappointment, their criticism, Ángel's fingers, Ione's demands, the congregation watching her. Each of these things would be a task for her to manage on it's own and she's facing them all in the same instant.

"N-no." Her lips draw away from the cross, eyes casting back to Ione's face as she seeks understanding, both from Ione and from herself. "I would never mock him. I just...I don't understand." But between words and actions, the blonde helps to make it more clear. Her blue orbs flicker down to the cross before once more to the girl's face, lips hesitatingly falling open under the command, searching for the approval and the forgiveness she so desperately needed.

“mmhmm, i can see that.” nadia replied, a knowing smirk on her lips as she let her eyes fall to the woman’s glistening cunt. it was clear what was going on, all her suspicion confirmed by just how wet the older woman was. she should have stopped then, called genevieve out for the obvious ruse, but instead the girl just carefully began to work her thumb into the stretched hole with the rest of her fingers. “i bet it’s in there real deep.” she added a moment later, biting her lip as she watched the woman’s rim stretching to accommodate the rest of her hand as she eased it in slowly. unable to resist any longer, nadia lifted her free hand to drag her fingers through genevieve’s wet folds. “god you’re so wet,” she murmured softly. “you sure you aren’t getting off on this?” the question was more teasing than anything, her fist fully in the woman’s ass now and slowly thrusting back and forth as if she were testing if the older woman could truly handle it.

it should embarrass her how ridiculously wet she was to the point where her cunt was drooling with her juices. coating the back of her thighs and dripping on the sheets. a pool of evidence just under her. there was no explanation for her current state. not even the 'lost toy' could explain this. but genevieve was a proud woman, and she wouldn't admit that she was doing all this just to be fisted by her son's girlfriend. feeling her fingers on her sopping wet folds had gen feeling shivers go up her spine. she almost came just from the attention to her pussy. it has been too long since her cunt has received any action from anyone other than herself. "no, i'm really not. i swear--" her words would be more convincing if she was able to bite down on the wanton moan that just escaped her lips at the fullness she felt. "fuck, keep going, baby." she gripped her cheeks tighter and spreads herself even more. genevieve started to fuck herself backwards, too impatient to wait for her to go faster.

★・・・・・・★

Agneta lets the delicate tension between them settle before she speaks, her expression controlled, her every word a part of a carefully crafted performance. The talk of Olaf prompts the faintest of smiles, subtle, but just enough to hint at satisfaction. "Yes, Olaf has always been dependable." she says, her tone light but carrying an underlying note of pride. "A rare trait, wouldn't you say? To have someone who…remains committed." there’s no need to elaborate as she takes a sip from her glass.

She holds Genevieve's gaze, nodding as she listens. Her demeanor shifts ever so slightly about David, softer and more diplomatic. "I can reach out to him directly, that's not a problem. But, I do deeply appreciate your help with looking over the act. It's become a personal project of mine. I think I'm rather attached. I need it to be perfect." she says simply. "David's opinion is very helpful, too." Agneta's not one to heap compliments unnecessarily, but she knows when they're needed.

But, when the topic turns to Felix, Agneta's calm falters for a brief moment. The usual rehearsed smile tightens, but she regains control quickly. "Felix does have a way of…testing boundaries." she says carefully, her voice still even, though it carries an edge. "I admire your optimism but-" her shoulder lifts delicately, a hint of resignation in her tone for the son she feels as if she knows...yet feels as if she doesn't. "It's just all been rather fast, I suppose." it's all she wishes to say about her son, the obvious lack of belief in his sudden changes.

Her focus shifts back to Vertex and the Credit Repair Scheme, her tone businesslike. Though it's clear from the empty look behind her eyes that Agneta has no interest in helping. Especially helping Outreach. "The scheme will do what it's intended to do. There are always optics to consider, of course, but the impact it could have on Outreach is undeniable." she allows a small pause, as if giving Genevieve a moment to appreciate the broader picture. "And as for the Financial Stability Act, that is more than optics. It's about lasting change." a small, calculating smile tugs at her lips. "I'm sure David will see that." There's a sense of finality in her words, a subtle reminder that she always keeps the bigger picture in view. Whether it's about Felix, David, or Vertex, Agneta knows how to control the narrative, one step at a time.

;

Genevieve listens with practiced grace, her smile of someone who's spent years navigating conversations that are more battlegrounds than exchanges. The subtle tension that creeps into Agneta's smile is caught but met with the faintest arch of Genevieve's brow, a barely-there flicker of amusement in her eyes. "I'm sure Olaf is quite the pillar. It's certainly rare to find a man who...understands." the pause is measured and deliberate, just enough for Agneta to read into whatever she wants. Genevieve won't bother to clarify, instead offering her friend a smile.

She watches Agneta's hands smooth the napkin over her lap, a habit of control, of keeping everything in its place. "I'd be happy to look it over, and I appreciate you thinking of me." she says, voice steady and just shy of dismissive. "As for forwarding it to David, well, you know him better than I do these days." it's a slight jab masked beneath a layer of civility but Genevieve moves past it quickly, eyes glinting. "I doubt he'll resist giving his thoughts, though. He has always loved the sound of his own advice." she chuckles, taking another sip from her drink.

The mention of Felix shifts the atmosphere, almost making Agneta resemble someone far more genuine. Genevieve notices the way her smile falters before being stitched back into place. "Well, there is that. I can see why you'd be concerned." she nods, head tilting as she considers Felix. How fond she is of the young man, and how happy he makes her daughter. "Because...I suppose being in a rush to fix everything, people can miss what's really broken." Genevieve quickly adds, her tone swift before she shrugs, a small pause to really let the weight of her words settle.

Then, as if brushing away the darker tone of the conversation, Genevieve leans back in her chair, perking her voice. "Still, surprises can be good. Perhaps Felix is one of the lucky few. It wouldn't be the strangest thing in the world, would it?" she smiles, almost casually. "Speaking of Vertex, Bella told me you're renewing the Credit Repair Scheme with Outreach. That's very thoughtful, and extremely helpful." even if Genevieve knows that it's the last thing Agneta wanted. "I can only imagine how many brilliant ideas are potentially on the table, too. Very exciting."

          The lengthy and winding path that led up to the Romano estate was lined with trees, parched foliage now that it was fall taking the last of the sunset that sunk into sky, and was replaced it with a dusky shade of eventide as her car pulled into the driveway, parking near the gate. The lights from inside welcomed her as she strolled to the door, clad in a silk olive green dress, she took an abrupt moment to compose herself before entering, a domestic greeting her at the door to take her door before she made her way into the sea of people that had gathered for the celebration. She gifted the host a bottle of limoncino imported from the Amalfi region, since she was taught to never attend an event empty-handed, and then commenced her proverbial divergence, conversing with a few colleagues as she eyed the tray of sweets a waiter was toting around. Excusing herself from her current engagement, she took two from the waiter, thanked him and slipped through the large doors and down the corridor. 

It was there that she saw a familiar figure, her head slanting slightly as she traced the outline of Gen’s as she tranquilly approached her, cake in one hand, “tiramisu? In case you were in the mood for something sweet. You know, I think I heard it can mean “pick me up” in Italian.”

[thedcvilherself]

It's unlike anything she's ever felt before, the pleasure that seems to explode through every inch of her being, making her see stars, or perhaps the heavens themselves, making her tremble and leaving a mess, a purging of her sin, in its wake. If it wasn't a divine act, then what was? Then suddenly, without warning, she's empty. There's a dull ache as Àngel's fingers withdraw, as he grants her holes the relief she thought she'd been seeking, left with the emptiness and the shame of the way she'd just been made an example of in front of the entire congregation. It's not even the applause that pulls her back, rather the sound of the cross clattering to the ground, Ione's velvet like voice seeming to radiate through her entire being. Genevieve lifts her tear stained face, eyes still welled with the wetness, lips parting but offering only silence. "I-..." It's hard to think, hard to understand reality, Àngel pulling her clothes back into position and forcing her upright, as if the whole incident hadn't ever occurred. "I understand my errors, I do." Her own voice is barely audible, a broken whisper, fearful that she might say the wrong thing. In her mind it was enough, it had to be, what else had she to give? But she didn't see with the eyes the siblings did, she didn't know a path as close to God as they did, how could she speak to them on her holiness? How could she know better than them? "I hope I have done enough. I don't wish to bring shame. I...I promise I will do what it takes to rectify this, to apologize to my god and my church. P-please know this. Please know I am sorry."

He got a front-row seat as her orgasm ripped through her body, fingers squeezed by her walls in a way that had Àngel groaning at the feeling. At the thought of just how good it would feel to have it happen when he was inside her, wrapped in wetness and warmth, and having her become even tighter around his cock. He could do it right then, couldn't he? Pull his fingers out, thrust inside of Genevieve until she was cumming around him, passage eased by the wetness that had already drenched everything. But patience was the only virtue he possessed, and as such, instead of filling her up once more when he pulled away, he simply cleaned his fingers on her dress. "And so the sinner has been cleansed." his words have a gloating quality to them, but they still elicit a cheer.

The smile the siblings share could cut through glass, as sharp as it was.

Ione leaned forward, uncaring of the cross as she let it fall on the ground. "Tell me, Genevieve. Do you think that was enough to wash the sin out of you?" the words were soft, not sweet, but Ione had never been able to fake sweetness like Ángel did. "Do you think what happened now has shown you the error of your ways?" she put a strand behind the woman's ears, humming as Ángel righted her panties and dress before straightening her body, still caught between the two siblings, but more put together. "Or do you think you'll need to be shown salvation again?"

ethan teller. (  @brcisedandbroken )

if anyone told her a month ago that she’d end up back in this town, she would have laughed in their face. she hasn’t set foot here in twenty-five years, since the last time she came home for christmas and had the worst fight on record with her mother. she hadn’t missed it, either. not when she was too busy being genevieve hart, executive editor-in-chief of the new york branch of harper collins. being in the position she was meant leaving her past behind and becoming a new yorker, someone willing to shove everyone out of her way in order to get to the top and damn, had she been determined to be the best. after so many years on top now, she didn’t even give a second thought to returning home until she received word that her mother was sick. her brothers were unable to come back and take care of her for the time being and gen was set on hiring a nurse if not for being guilted into it by her elder brother, saying she ought to patch things up in case things go south. it was with reluctance that she’d taken the month off ( though she’d still work from her phone ) to return home.

she was already regretting not hiring a home nurse. she’d been home a whole of five minutes before she was back into an argument with her mother, been recognized by near everyone on the street, and run into old high school friends that she’d burned by cutting them out of her life. home five minutes and it already felt like she had stepped into a nightmare. it has her fumbling for her keys and driving herself to the bar that she used to break into as a teenager only to get thrown out because the owner knew her all too well. as she makes her way through the bar, she doesn’t take much note of the people around her lest somebody else recognizes her, and ends up seated at the end of the counter, one hand coming up to rest her forehead against. it’s only when she hears shuffles from behind the bar that she finally speaks without glancing up. “whiskey, on the rocks.”

[thedcvilherself]

The congregation was watching with an almost sort of awe and fervor that Ángel doubted that they were aware of what the siblings were planning to do. What they were doing. Nothing more than the reveal and a slight base of a plan had been made, the ending something they both wanted to see - Genevieve, debauched and devout, praising the same Lord she would be 'sinning' against.

"What do you think, Ángel? Does it look to you that she has repented?" it was almost a taunt from Ione, lips quirked into a smirk, not really hiding anymore because it wasn't like the crowd was paying attention to them anymore. Eyes fully on the red-haired woman.

"I don't think so." he moved forward, closer to Genevieve. He took a gold vial from the pocket of his pants, humming. "I think we should anoint her with holy oil." a chuckle, oil being dropped on two of his fingers, the only preparation that he gave her before thrusting the digits inside her cunt. He didn't move, letting her feel herself stretch around them.

Ione moved until she was near Genevieve's head, playing with the silver plated cross. "Now, I think you should show God how sorry you are." the cross was presented in front of her face. "I think you know what to do with a mouth that keeps spewing lies about being sorry."

Be it for better or worse, with her back to them and the words streaming from her own lips, Genevieve is too lost in her prayers to be entirely aware of the on-goings of the siblings behind her. It isn't until Ángel makes his move that they seem to draw any further response from her, a cry escaping her lips as his fingers are thrust into her virginal cunt, hands dropping from their clasped position in order to grasp the wood at the top of the pew, as it might grant her some relief.

Her entire frame has gone rigid with tension, walls clutching around the digits as if they could stop the intrusion and yet Ione's trying to pull her attention elsewhere, a task that seems impossible in that moment.

Flooded blue eyes cast to the blonde, to the cross in her hand, uncertainty playing its way across her features as she's left with no clear direction. If the tightness of her core or the reaction it drew from her weren't enough display of her lack of experience, her next actions are, head bowing to press a kiss to the cross as if that was the show of remorse Ione was searching for.

[devouredher]

genevieve doesn't know how long she can keep up with pretending as if she didn't orchestrate this lie just to have nadia's fingers deep inside her ass. with each thrust her fingers made inside her taut hole, it made it harder to keep her moans to herself. to not reveal her true motives. "it's okay, baby, i can take it." she answered with a strained voice as she felt another spit on her hole. with the attention her ass was getting, she felt her cunt starting to throb with need. she was sure nadia could see just how aroused she was with the way her juices have spread all over. a clear sign that she was enjoying herself. anyone could see right through her. genevieve barely heard her suggestion as she started to get lost on the pleasure she was feeling. "oh, if you think that'll help." her eyes fluttered slightly, keeping with the helpless act. "the toy is just so lost in there.."

nadia bit down on her bottom lip, trying to suppress her grin at how the woman reacted. there was no way she would have been able to miss that reaction even if she hadn’t been paying attention. moving to settle herself on her knees behind the woman, nadia raised a brow at the suggestion of two more fingers inside the woman’s ass. “well…if you think they’ll fit.” she replied, taking a moment to add more spit against the woman’s hole before she began to work a third finger in and then the fourth. slowly she dragged them in and out, watching the way genevieve’s hole stretched around her hand. “i’m still not finding it, maybe…” nadia trailed off, letting her thumb brush back and forth against the woman’s stretched rim. “if you think it won’t be too much i could try getting the rest of my hand in.” nadia offered, her own cunt growing wetter by the second at the thought of fisting the older woman’s ass while she looked for the lost toy that genevieve claimed was in there.

[thedcvilherself]

Keeping his glee contained was difficult, but he had years to perfect the good man persona, to embody the man of faith garb that everyone ate up with ease. Ángel had been manipulating everyone around him since he was young, after all, and fuck if church-loving girls weren't gullible little fools.

Not that the rest of the parish was much better. "You are witnesses of the sins of this young woman, and you will also witness the absolution of them." A shared look between the siblings, Ione easily raising the skirt and baring her ass to them. He continued as his sister pulled Genevieve's panties down her legs "My sister will assist me in making sure that all the sin leaks out of her."

Ione hid her chuckle with a nod of her head, lips tilted in a beatific version of a smile that shouldn't have put anyone at ease, but they were easy to fool into thinking she was as gullible and innocent as the others. "It will be my pleasure."

Two fingers spread the red-haired woman's lower lips, thumb trailing over her opening before the blonde hummed pleased. "I don't think God has heard you yet, you have to plead for His forgiveness louder."

Despite the image cast onto the screen behind her, the fact that a fair amount of her body had been placed on shameless display for not the entirety of the church to see, there's something far more intimate in the moment that she feels her skirt lifted. Granted hardly a second to process the reveal when her underwear are eased downwards as well, granting the siblings an even more full view of her. If her body hadn't been flush with embarrassment already, it certainly was in that instant, skin feeling as if it would all but scald Ione when she touched her.

Her body tenses, shuddering as the blonde's fingers come into contact with her most sensitive of spots, her most private of spots, thumb teasing against the opening that she herself had hardly found the courage to explore. It's hard to focus on words when she feels so exposed, so vulnerable, but she's far from prepared to ignore the siblings direction, to resist the salvation they're attempting to offer her.

"Father-..." Hands clasp, head bowing as tears finally spill over and stain her cheeks. "I beg you to please forgive me. I- I know my body is a temple of the Holy Spirit and I...I showed it off in a way that is not pleasing to you. I was wrong. I knew- I knew I was wrong and I...I did it anyway. I’m sorry that I broke our trust. I’m sorry for sinning against you. Please...please forgive me for my weakness."

[thedcvilherself]

"You're not what?" her expression is soft, almost too soft. And it's cut by the venom that her next words contain. "A whore?" A blink of brown eyes, cross being brought to caress the young woman's face.

To be honest, Ione could care less who Genevieve showed her tits to, rather, the whole view of purity from the congregation was pretty fucked up. But it did help with allowing the siblings to do whatever they wished, didn't it? So who the fuck cared? Ione was going to manipulate the situation in her favor, and she was going to enjoy debauching the woman in front of her.

"Daughter of Jezebel." Ángel supplied from behind her, one hand on her lower back as Ione moved the cross lower, resting it against Genevieve's chest. Soon, his fingers found the cool metal, pressing it further into her soft skin, probably to leave a pretty red imprint behind. "Isn't that what she is?"

His words were to the congregation, and there was a murmur of agreement, people hanging on to his words. "We have to make sure you are free of sin. After all, who would have sent such a picture to anyone?" a chorus of no one and not me rang from behind the young woman. "Accept the punishment for your sin and repent in the eyes of the lord."

Genevieve can't tell which stings more, the metal pressing into her porcelain skin and marking it red or the disgust that Ione and Ángel displayed for her in that instant, that the entirety of the church displayed for her. It'd been months since she'd first stepped inside these walls, felt, for the first time, seen and welcomed. It wasn't just herself that her actions had brought disgrace upon, it was all of them and the disappointment they felt for her was palpable.

"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry." The tears that well in her eyes make it clear she means it, that if she could take it all back, she would in an instant. Only she can't. "I...I accept the punishment. I do." And though she hesitates, the girl is soon rising from her seat on trembling legs, turning her back to the siblings and doing as originally was requested of her, facing the rest of the congregation and bending herself over the pew. "F-forgive me..." A plea for the entirety of the parish as well as the lord. "I've...I've committed an act of lust. My actions w-were wrong...they were sinful and I...I beg for your forgiveness. Please...please, purge me of my sin."

[thedcvilherself]

open to f/femme nb muses: Ángel Martinez, 24 & Ione Shaw, 24 - step siblings in this verse plot: t*boo warning, ione is a tw herself and so is ángel tbh, this will deal with sacrilege. they're being menaces. your muse comes to ángel's congregation and he has found out something to use against them ( of accounts, nudes, etc... )

"It seems that the devil has infiltrated our midst." Ángel had never wanted to follow ministerhood. After all, he wasn’t really cut for it, but it paid well, and to add to the already good deal going on, he could get away with things that most people could never. People trusted him, confided in him, allowed him liberties they didn’t allow others. And of course, he took advantage of it.

Especially in this case, as the image on the screen showed everyone what they had done. “As you can see, we have a sinner in our midst.” blue eyes sparkled as he hid his smile behind a concerned frown “I think we have to show them how sinners are treated, don’t you think?”

There was a murmur of agreement from the crowd, blue eyes meeting brown as his sister smiled at him before raising from her seat, moving until she was in front of the young adult.

“Such nasty sinner you showed yourself to be.” Ione cooed to the person, well manicured hands putting a strand of the woman's hair behind her ear. “Maybe you need something holy inside of you.” a look was given to Ángel, making him handle her a cross. “You’re going to be very good and bend down to face the rest of the parish, aren’t you?”

The word's that escape Ángel's lips are nothing short of an attention grabber, anyone whom hadn't been paying attention to his sermon certainly focusing in that instant, the church silent and eyes all cast to where he stood, her own included. There's not a thought in her mind that his words could have been about her, not until the image flashes onto the screen behind him. There's no denying what it is, her reflection captured in a mirror, body bare, breast and just the top of her cunt on display.

Genevieve could swear the temperature had been turned up to well past a hundred degrees, her entire body feeling as if it were on fire, as if the baby blue dress adorning her frame might suddenly melt against her skin. She's frozen in place, seeming unable to move or speak, as if time had frozen, only pulled from her trance when Ione's gentle touch is upon her. Eyes, the same hue as her dress, flash to the blonde's face and she searches for understanding there.

"Ione, this isn't...I'm not..." Her thoughts and words tumble over themselves, gaze following the hands that exchange the cross and her head shaking. "I only sent that to one person." As if that changes anything, as if his were the only eyes that had viewed it now. "We were dating and he...he asked and I...please." An ex whom she'd persuaded to join the church just weeks prior, and who'd seemingly, turned on her in response. "It's not for everyone to see."

[teaganweatherford]

With a small smile as Teagan sat in the leather chair across from the lawyer and allowed herself to relax a little; not that it was hard, the chairs practically sank you in them when you met the cool texture with your body. "I can imagine that co-worker is an excellent person to work with." she spoke sarcastically as she crossed her legs, a habit she often did when she was nervous. "I'm grateful to not really have a ton of coworkers, and the ones that I do have are pretty easy to work with." she shrugged. "I can give you the run down of anything you need." she added. "It's not too much, I just really need to make sure everything is settled and ready to go. It's been a few years since we sat down and done one so I think I'm just wanting to make sure it doesn't need updated and have him sign it if it's good to go." she spoke. "I would love some tea, if it's not too much to ask." she spoke. "Or even water is fine. Whatever you have on hand."

Genevieve took in a heavy sigh, rubbing the aching ridge of her temple as she finally closed the file on one of her last cases for the afternoon. Her mind was already elsewhere, choosing to dwell on happier topics like what family style deliciousness she was going to eat that evening with her favourite boys.
