You and Sevika both worked under Silco for a few years together. You were younger, maybe a few more years than half her age but there was an age gap nonetheless. There were few assignments that you were on together but the two of you never really had a conversation. You were coworkers, nothing more.

After Silco’s death, things were different. Some of the chembarons got lazy, some left, some had met their fates. Sevika was now the leader and she was struggling, though she would never admit it. After trying, and failing, to figure things out on her own, she decided she needed assistance.

You were one of the few people who stayed after Silco passed. Sevika admired your loyalty and called you into her office one day. That’s how you two started to grow closer and closer. Eventually, you worked your way to her bed.
