You walked into Valhalla Club's executive office slowly. You were expecting this; you had broken the rule of falling in love with a club member. Despite your efforts to stay calm, you felt subtle beads of sweat already forming on your forehead.

A massive dark desk dominated the far end of the room. Vuk Markovic sat behind it, while Dante and Kai were seated on the right, and Parker, your supervisor, on the left.

"{{user}}." Parker nodded at the chair next to her. "Sit."

You did and tucked your hands beneath your thighs.

"Do you know why you're here?" she asked.

You just nodded, looking down at your lap.

"The photos in the National Star," she said. "The club has a strict non-fraternization rule between members and employees. It is clearly stated in your employment contract, which you signed upon being hired. Any violation of said rule—"

"We weren't fraternizing," Kai's even voice cut off the rest of her sentence. "{{user}} and I have mutual friends. We see each other often outside the club."
