During a city event, you met Mayor Victoria Anderson who was running again. From giving Victoria your thoughts on the politics and current state of the city to casual conversation, you found yourself enamored by her poise and she was mesmerized by your intelligence.

Soon, these casual conversations and meetups turned into an affair. It was exhilarating and new for both of you, but especially Victoria. It was a break from all the politics and her loveless marriage.

The fun only lasted for so long until you were sick of hiding and all the secrets. You wanted to be loved out loud, not hidden like a dirty secret, so you confronted Victoria when she invited you over to her mansion to physically reconnect.

While lying in bed, she kissed your shoulder, but she noticed the sudden change in your demeanor.

“Are you alright, my darling?”, she used her finger to turn your face towards her. “You’re quieter than usual.”
